Item 5.02.   Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On September 25, 2008, in connection with the impending retirement and resignation of Robert Shaw as Chief Executive Officer of ArcSight, Inc. (“ArcSight”) effective October 1, 2008 and as an inducement in connection with his continued service as Chairman of the ArcSight Board of Directors (the “Board”), the Board and the Compensation Committee of the Board approved the following arrangement with Mr. Shaw effective October 1, 2008:
  •   Mr. Shaw will be entitled to payment of his COBRA health insurance premiums for 12 months;
  •   Mr. Shaw will retain the use of his current administrative assistant for 12 months;
  •   Mr. Shaw’s existing unvested stock options to purchase shares of ArcSight’s common stock will continue to vest for so long as he continues to serve as Chairman of the Board in accordance with their existing terms, provided that in the event that Mr. Shaw continues to serve as Chairman of the Board through September 30, 2009, then any then remaining unvested portion of such stock options will accelerate and become fully vested;
  •   In the event that Mr. Shaw has continuously served as Chairman of the Board until the date that the executive officers of ArcSight are paid cash bonuses pursuant to the applicable ArcSight bonus and profit sharing plan for fiscal 2009, Mr. Shaw shall receive additional cash compensation equal to the bonus that he would have been eligible to receive if he had continued to serve as ArcSight’s Chief Executive Officer, but pro-rated for the portion of fiscal 2009 that Mr. Shaw actually served as Chief Executive Officer;
  •   Mr. Shaw will receive compensation substantially identical to that awarded to the chair of the Board’s Audit Committee (annual cash retainer of $15,000 and a ten-year option to purchase 10,375 shares of ArcSight’s common stock with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of ArcSight’s common stock on the date of grant, vesting and becoming exercisable as to 1/12th of the shares each month after the grant date); and
  •   As with our other non-employee directors, in the event of a change of control of ArcSight (a “Corporate Transaction” as defined in the ArcSight 2007 Equity Incentive Plan), the vesting of all outstanding awards held by Mr. Shaw shall accelerate and become exercisable (as applicable) in full prior to the consummation of such change of control.
As with our other directors and executive officers in preparation for our initial public offering, we previously entered into an indemnification agreement with Mr. Shaw. The indemnification agreement and our restated certificate of incorporation and restated bylaws require us to indemnify our directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.
