On that date, we had 43,638,63648,755,665 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Our common stock is our only outstanding class of stock. The closing price of our common stock on April 3, 2017March 15, 2019 on the New York Stock Exchange was $32.50.

$66.64.

How many votes do I have?

You have one vote for each share of our common stock that you owned at the close of business on April 3, 2017.

March 15, 2019. 

The proxy card indicates the number of shares of common stock you are entitled to vote.

What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholdershareholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

Many of our stockholdersshareholders hold their shares through a stockbroker, bank or other nominee rather than directly in their own name. As summarized below, there are some differences between shares held of record and those owned beneficially.

Stockholder


Shareholder of Record

If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholdershareholder of record and these proxy materials are being sent to you directly. As the stockholdershareholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly or to vote in person at the Annual Meeting. You may also vote by telephone or via the Internet as described below under the heading “Information About the Annual Meeting and Voting—May I vote by telephone or via the Internet?” or you may vote your proxy card by mail.

Beneficial Owner

If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and our proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker or nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholdershareholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or nominee on how to vote your shares and are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholdershareholder of record, you may only vote these shares in person at the Annual Meeting if you follow the instructions described below under the heading “Information About the Annual Meeting and Voting—How do I vote in person at the Annual Meeting?” and your broker or nominee has provided a voting instruction card forsigned proxy giving you to use in directing your broker or nominee as to howthe right to vote yourthe shares. If you would like to vote by telephone or on the Internet, you should read the information described below under the heading “Information About the Annual Meeting and Voting—May I vote by telephone or via the Internet?”

How do I vote by proxy if I am a stockholdershareholder of record?

If you are a stockholdershareholder of record, you must properly submit your proxy card (by telephone, via the Internet or by mail) so that it is received by us in time to vote. Your “proxy” (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares as you have directed. If you sign the proxy card (including electronic signatures in the case of Internet or telephonic voting) but do not make specific choices, your proxy will vote your shares as recommended by the Board:

·

“FOR” the election of each Class II director;

·

“FOR” the approval of the advisory vote on executive compensation;

·

FOR” the submission of executive compensation to an advisory vote by stockholders every year;

2

“FOR” the election of each Class I director nominee and Class III director nominees;

“FOR” the approval of the advisory vote on executive compensation; and

Table“FOR” the ratification of ContentsKPMG LLP as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.

·

“FOR” the ratification of KPMG LLP as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017; and

·

“FOR” the approval of the Envestnet, Inc. 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended through the Fourth Amendment.

If any other matter is presented, your proxy will be voted in accordance with the best judgment of the individuals named on the proxy card. As of the date of printing this proxy statement, we knew of no matters that needed to be acted on at the Annual Meeting, other than those discussed in this proxy statement.

How do I give voting instructions if I am a beneficial owner?

If you are a beneficial owner of shares, the broker will ask you how you want your shares to be voted. If you give the broker instructions, the broker will vote your shares as you direct. If your broker does not receive instructions from you about how your shares are to be voted, one of two things can happen, depending on the type of proposal. Pursuant to rules of the New York Stock Exchange which we refer to as the NYSE,(the “NYSE”), brokers have discretionary power to vote your shares with respect to “routine” matters, but they do not have discretionary power to vote your shares on “non‑routine” matters. Brokers holding shares beneficially owned by their clients do not have the ability to cast votes with respect to the election of directors or executive compensation unless they have received instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares. It is therefore important that you provide instructions to your broker if your shares are beneficially held by a broker so that your vote with respect to directors and on the advisory vote on executive compensation, and any other matters treated as non‑routine by the NYSE, is counted.

May I vote by telephone or via the Internet?

Yes. If you are a stockholdershareholder of record, you have a choice of voting over the Internet, voting by telephone using a toll‑free telephone number or voting by requesting and completing a proxy card and mailing it in the return envelope provided. We encourage you to vote by telephone or over the Internet because your vote is then tabulated faster than if you mailed it. Please note that there are separate telephone and Internet arrangements depending on whether you are a stockholdershareholder of record (that is, if you hold your stock in your own name), or whether you are a beneficial owner and hold your shares in “street name” (that is, if your stock is held in the name of your broker or bank).

If you are a stockholdershareholder of record, you may vote by telephone, or electronically via the Internet, or by following the instructions provided on the proxy card.

If you are a beneficial owner and hold your shares in “street name,”name”, you will need to contact your bankbroker or brokerbank to determine whether you will be able to vote by telephone or electronically through the Internet.


The telephone and Internet voting procedures are designed to authenticate stockholders’shareholders’ identities, to allow stockholdersshareholders to give their voting instructions and to confirm that stockholders’shareholders’ instructions have been recorded properly. If you vote via the Internet, you may incur costs, such as usage charges from Internet access providers and telephone companies. You will be responsible for those costs.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote. Voting by telephone or over the Internet or returning your proxy card by mail will not affect your right to attend the Annual Meeting and vote.

May I revoke my proxy or my voting instructions?

Yes. If you change your mind after you vote, if you are a stockholdershareholder of record, you may revoke your proxy by following any of the procedures described below. To revoke your proxy:

·

Send in another signed proxy with a later date or resubmit your vote by telephone or the Internet;

3

Send in another signed proxy with a later date or resubmit your vote by telephone or the Internet;

Send a letter revoking your proxy to Envestnet’s Corporate Secretary at 35 East Wacker Drive, Suite 2400, Chicago, Illinois, 60601; or

·

Send a letter revoking your proxy to Envestnet’s Corporate Secretary at 35 East Wacker Drive, Suite 2400, Chicago, Illinois, 60601; or

·

Attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person.

If you are a beneficial owner and hold your shares in “street name,”name”, you will need to contact your bankbroker or brokerbank to determine how to revoke your voting instructions.

If you wish to revoke your proxy or voting instructions, you must do so in sufficient time to permit the necessary examination and tabulation of the subsequent proxy or revocation before the vote is taken.

How do I vote in person at the Annual Meeting?

You may vote shares held directly in your name as the stockholdershareholder of record in person at the Annual Meeting. If you choose to vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting, please bring proof of identification. Shares held in “street name” may be voted in person by you only if you obtain a signed proxy from the stockholdershareholder of record giving you the right to vote the shares. If your shares are held in the name of your broker, bank or other nominee, you must bring to the Annual Meeting an account statement or letter from the broker, bank or other nominee indicating that you are the owner of the shares, and a signed proxy from the stockholdershareholder of record giving you the right to vote the shares. The account statement or letter must show that you were the beneficial owner of the shares on April 3, 2017.

March 15, 2019. 

Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, Envestnet recommends that you vote your shares in advance as described above so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

What votes need to be present to hold the Annual Meeting?

To have a quorum for our Annual Meeting, the holders of a majority of our shares of common stock outstanding as of April 3, 2017March 15, 2019 must be present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting.

What vote is required to approve each proposal?

Directors are elected by a plurality vote, which means that the one nominee for Class I director and three nominees for Class IIIII directors receiving the most affirmative votes will be elected. However, if the majority of the votes cast for a director are withheld, then notwithstanding the valid election of such director, our by‑laws provide that such director will voluntarily tender his resignation for consideration by our Board of Directors (“Board”).Board. Our Board will determine whether to accept the resignation of such director. All other matters submitted for stockholdershareholder approval require the affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote.

How are votes counted?

In the election of Envestnet directors, your vote may be cast “FOR” all of the nominees or your vote may be “WITHHELD” with respect to one or more of the nominees. Your vote may be cast “FOR” or “AGAINST” or you may “ABSTAIN” with respect to the proposals relating to the advisory vote on executive compensation and the ratification of Envestnet’s independent auditors and the approval of our 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended through the Fourth Amendment. With respect to the advisory vote on the frequency of the submission of the advisory vote on executive compensation to stockholders, you may vote “FOR” every year, every two years or every three years, or you may “ABSTAIN” from voting.auditors. If you sign (including electronic signatures in the case of Internet or telephonic voting) your proxy card with no further instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Board. If you sign (including electronic signatures in the case of Internet or telephonic voting) your broker voting instruction card with no further instructions, your shares will be voted in the broker’s discretion with respect to routine matters but will not be voted with respect to non‑routine matters. As described in “How“Information About the Annual Meeting and Voting —How do I give voting instructions if I am a beneficial holder?” the election of directors and the advisory vote on executive compensation are considered non‑routine matters. We will appoint one or more inspectors of election to count votes cast in person or by proxy.

Table of Contents

What is the effect of broker non‑votes and abstentions?

A broker “non‑vote” occurs when a broker holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the broker does not have discretionary voting power for that particular item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

Common stock owned by stockholdersshareholders electing to abstain from voting with respect to any proposal will be counted towards the presence of a quorum. Common stock that is beneficially owned and is voted by the beneficiarybeneficial holder through a broker or bank will be counted towards the presence of a quorum, even if there are broker non‑votes with respect to some proposals, as long as the broker votes on at least one proposal. Broker “non‑votes” will not be considered present and voting with respect to elections of directors or other matters to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting. Therefore, broker “non‑votes” will have no direct effect on the outcome of any of the proposals. Abstentions will be considered present and voting and will have the impact of a vote against a proposal.

Are there any voting agreements with respect to our common stock?
No. 

No.

What are the costs of soliciting these proxies and who will pay them?

Envestnet will pay all the costs of soliciting these proxies. Our directors and employees may also solicit proxies by telephone, by fax or other electronic means of communication, or in person. We will reimburse banks, brokers, nominees and other fiduciaries for the expenses they incur in forwarding the proxy materials to you.

Where can I find the voting results?

We will publishreport the voting results in a Form 8‑K that we will file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), within four business days after the Annual Meeting. You can find the Form 8‑K at www.sec.gov or on our website at www.envestnet.com.

Will Envestnet’s independent auditors attend the Annual Meeting?

In March 2017,January 2019, our Board determined that the following directors are independent under the listing standards of the NYSE: Luis Aguilar, Ross Chapin, Gayle Crowell, James Fox, James Johnson,Valerie Mosley, Charles Roame and Gregory Smith. These independent directors constitute substantially more than a majority of Envestnet’s Board. In making its determination of independence, the Board applied the categorical standards for director independence set forth in the NYSE’s rules and therefore determined that no other material relationships existed between us and these directors. The Board also considered the other directorships held by the independent directors and determined that none of these directorships constituted a material relationship with us.

We also reimburse all of our directors for their reasonable expenses incurred in attending meetings of our Board or committees.

What are our stock ownership guidelines for independent directors?
In order to align the interests of the non-employee members of the Board with the long-term interests of our shareholders, all non-employee directors must maintain an ownership level in our common stock equal to or greater than $300,000. Directors have four years to come into compliance with the ownership guidelines. For those persons who were directors when the guidelines were adopted, they need to be in compliance by October 28, 2019. For directors appointed after that time, they have four years from their date of appointment to the Board to come into compliance with the ownership guidelines.

What restrictions do we have with respect to short-term or speculative transactions, hedging or pledging with respect to our securities?
We consider it improper and inappropriate for directors, officers, employees, consultants and temporary contract workers (whom we refer to as “covered persons”) to engage in short-term or speculative transactions in our securities. Consequently, we have adopted a policy that prohibits covered persons from engaging in short sales of our securities (sales of securities that are not then owned), including “sales against the box” (sales with delayed delivery) and in transactions in publicly traded options on our securities (such as puts, calls and other derivative securities) on an exchange or in any other organized market. We also only allow “standing orders” for a brief period of time.
Furthermore, we believe that certain forms of hedging or monetization transactions, such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts, may result in a misalignment of our interests and the interests of covered persons. Accordingly, we have adopted a policy that prohibits hedging transactions and all other similar forms of monetization transactions. For purposes of this policy, hedging includes the purchase of financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds), or engaging in any other transaction, that hedge or offset, or are designed to hedge or offset, any decrease in the market value of our securities.
Securities held in a margin account or pledged as collateral for a loan may be sold by the broker if a covered person fails to meet a margin call or by the lender in foreclosure if the covered person defaults on the loan. For these reasons, covered persons are prohibited from holding our securities in a margin account or pledging our securities as collateral for a loan unless the covered person clearly demonstrates the ability the repay any obligations arising under the margin account or any loan without resorting to the securities held in the margin account or pledged securities in the case of a loan.

What is our Board leadership structure?

The Nominating and Governance Committee of our Board evaluates the Board’s leadership structure on a regular basis.

While the Board does not have a policy with respect to combining or separating the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions, under the current Board leadership structure, the positions of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer are combined into one role. Mr. Bergman has served as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer since 1999. Effective as of November 19, 2015, Anil Arora was appointed Vice Chairman. The independent directors of the Board have designated one lead director. The lead director’s responsibilities include, among other things, presiding over all executive sessions of the non‑employee directors, where non‑employee directors meet outside the presence of the management directors, presiding at all other meetings of the Board at which the Chairman is not present, servesserving as a liaison between the Chairman and the independent directors discussesand discussing with the Chairman all information sent to the Board, and discusses with the Chairman theincluding meeting agendas of the Board.agendas. The other responsibilities of the lead director are determined by the Board from time to time. Ross Chapin has been designated the lead director.

In considering its leadership structure, the Board takes a number of factors into account. Based on its most recent review of the leadership structure, the Board believesdetermined that the current structure is appropriate for our Company because it allows for effective evaluation and execution of our strategies and operations management. In addition, a number of Board and Committeecommittee processes and procedures, including regular executive sessions of non‑employee directors and annual performance evaluations, provide substantial independent oversight of our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer’s performance.

How does the Board oversee risk?

Envestnet’s policies and procedures relating to risk assessment and risk management are overseen by our Board. The Board takes an enterprise‑wide approach to risk management that is designed to support our business plans at a reasonable level of risk. A fundamental part of risk assessment and risk management is not only understanding the risks a company faces and what steps management is taking to manage those risks, but also understanding what level of risk is appropriate for our Company. The Board annually approves our business plan, giving consideration to risk management. The involvement of the Board in setting our business strategy is a key part of its assessment of management’s risk tolerance and also a determination of what constitutes an appropriate level of risk for our Company.

11


The Audit Committee of the Board reviews our policies and practices with respect to risk assessment and risk management and discusses with management our major financial risk exposures and the steps that have been taken to monitor and control such exposures.

The Compensation Committee reviews compensation risk.

The Compensation Committee assesses our executive compensation programs to ascertain any potential material risks that may be created by the compensation program.

In conducting this assessment, the Compensation Committee focused on our incentive compensation programs in order to identify any general areas of risk or potential for unintended consequences that exist in the design of our compensation programsprograms; and to evaluate our incentive plans relative to our enterprise risks to identify potential areas of concern, if any.

The Compensation Committee considered the findings of this assessment of compensation policies and practices and determined that our compensation programs are designed and administered with the appropriate balance of risk and reward in relation to our overall business strategy. Envestnet’sThe Company's policies and practices are not structured to encourage executives to take unnecessary or excessive risks, and therefore do not create risks reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our Company.

The Compliance and Information Security Committee reviews potential risk related to regulatory compliance requirements and reviews and assesses our regulatory compliance programs. The Compliance and Information Security Committee also reviews potential risk related to our information technology systems, including cybersecurity risk, and reviews and assesses our information technology security framework.

How do directors evaluate their performance?

The Board and each committee of the Board conduct a formal annual self‑evaluationsevaluation to assess the business skills, experience and background represented on the Board and to determine whether the Board and its committees are functioning effectively. During the year, the Nominating and Governance Committee receives input on the Board’s performance from directors and discusses the input with the full Board and oversees the full Board’s review of its performance. Each committee also discusses the input with respect to the committee and the review of its performance.self-evaluation process. The self‑assessments focusevaluation focuses on whether the Board is operating effectively and on areas in which the Board or management believes that the Board or any of its committees could improve.

The self-evaluation may be in the form of written or oral questionnaires or interviews and may be conducted by a third party. Each year the Nominating and Governance Committee discusses and considers the appropriate approach and approves the form of the self-evaluation.


The results of the self-evaluation are reviewed by the Nominating and Governance Committee and summarized for the full Board. Any recommendations for improvement are reviewed and appropriate plans are initiated to address such recommendations by the full Board.    
How are directors nominated?

In accordance with its charter, the Nominating and Governance Committee identifies potential nominees for directors from various sources. TheWhen reviewing candidates qualifications, the Nominating and Governance Committee reviewsconsiders the qualificationsrelevance of these persons to determine whether they might be a good candidate for membership on the Board.their experience and background as well as their independence, judgment and understanding of our business and related industries. The Nominating and Governance Committee includes a review of the person’s judgment, experience, independence, understanding of our business or other related industries and such other factors as the Nominating and Governance Committee determines are relevant in light of the needs of the Board and our Company. The Nominating and Governance Committee will select qualified candidates and review its recommendations with the Board, which will decide whether to nominate the person for election to the Board at an annual meeting. Between annual meetings, the Board, upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee, can approve additions to the Board.

Envestnet does not have a formal

However,believes that it is important that the Board considers diversity in professional experience and professional training in recommending nominees.members represent a diverse mix of viewpoints.  The Nominating and Governance Committee works with the Board on an annual basis to determineperiodically assess the appropriate characteristics,expertise, experience, skills and experience forbackgrounds of its directors in light of the needs of the Board, asincluding the extent to which the current composition of the Board reflects a wholediverse mix of knowledge, experience, skills and its individual members.backgrounds. The skills and backgrounds collectively represented on the Board should reflect the diverse nature of the business environment in which the Company operates.  In evaluating the suitability of individual Board members, the Board and the Nominating and Governance Committee take into account numerous factors such as the individual’s general understanding of marketing, financethe Company’s business, or aspects thereof, and other disciplinesthe industry in which it operates, skills relevant to the success of a publicly traded company; understanding of our business;company, gender, race, education and professional background, including current employment and other Board memberships; reputation for integrity;memberships, and any other factors they consider to be relevant. The Board evaluates each

individual in the context of the Board as a whole, with the objective of recommending a group that can best perpetuateadvance the success of the business and represent stockholder interestshareholder interests through the exercise of sound judgment, using its diversity of experience.  Any search firm engaged to assist the Board or the Nominating and Governance Committee in identifying candidates for appointment to the Board is specifically directed to include diverse candidates.  In determining whether to recommend a director for re‑election, the Nominating and Governance Committee also considers the director’s past attendance at meetings and participation in and contributions to the activities of the Board.


The Nominating and Governance Committee annually reviews its own performance. In connection with such self‑evaluation, the Nominating and Governance Committee assesses whether it effectively nominates candidates for director in accordance with the above described standards specified by the corporate governance guidelines. See each nominee’s and director’s biography appearing later in this proxy statement for a description of the specific experiences that each such individual brings to our Board.


The Nominating and Governance Committee will consider a stockholder’sshareholder’s recommendation for directors, but the Nominating and Governance Committee has no obligation to recommend such candidates for nomination by the Board. Assuming that appropriate biographical and background material is provided for candidates recommended by stockholders,shareholders, the Nominating and Governance Committee will evaluate those candidates by following substantially the same process and applying substantially the same criteria as for candidates recommended by other sources. If a stockholdershareholder has a suggestion for candidates for election, the stockholdershareholder should mail it to: Corporate Secretary, Envestnet, Inc., 35 East Wacker Drive, Suite 2400, Chicago, Illinois, 60601. No person recommended by a stockholdershareholder will become a nominee for director and be included in a proxy statement unless the Nominating and Governance Committee recommends, and the Board approves, such person.


If a stockholdershareholder desires to nominate a person for election as director at a stockholders’shareholders’ meeting, that stockholdershareholder must comply with Section 5.2 of our By‑by‑laws, which requires notice not more than 120 days nor less than 90 days in advance of the anniversary of the date of the proxy statement provided in connection with the previous year’s annual meetingAnnual Meeting of stockholders.Shareholders. This time period has passed with respect to the 20172019 Annual Meeting.

Transactions involving the purchase or sale of products or services in the ordinary course of business, not exceeding $120,000;

The titles in the table above reflect positions held by the NEOs as of the end of 2018.

Leadership Changes

On January 9, 2019, Envestnet announced organizational changes to drive innovation and continued growth. Pursuant to those changes, the Company aligned its operations into two business units. Bill Crager, President of Envestnet assumed the position of Chief Executive of Envestnet Wealth Solutions, which includes Envestnet Enterprise, Envestnet Tamarac and Envestnet Retirement Solutions. Stuart W. DePina assumed the role of Chief Executive of Envestnet Data & Analytics, which includes Envestnet Yodlee. Mr. Crager and Mr. DePina continue to report to Jud Bergman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Envestnet. Concurrent with this reorganization, Anil Arora stepped down as Vice Chairman of Envestnet and Chief Executive of Envestnet Yodlee, effective February 28, 2019. Mr. Arora continues to serve as a director of Envestnet and is entitled to compensation as a non-employee director of Envestnet, Inc. beginning on the first day of the first full calendar quarter after the one-year anniversary of his termination date.

This CD&A section includes the following topics:
Company Overview
Envestnet is a leading provider of intelligent systems for wealth management and financial wellness. Envestnet's unified technology enhances advisor productivity and strengthens the wealth management process. Envestnet empowers enterprises and advisors to more fully understand their clients and deliver better outcomes.
Founded in 1999, Envestnet has been a leader in helping transform wealth management, working towards its goal of building a holistic financial wellness network that supports enterprises, advisors and their clients.


Through a combination of platform enhancements, partnerships and acquisitions, Envestnet uniquely provides a financial network connecting software, services and data, delivering better intelligence and enabling its customers to drive better outcomes.

Highlights of 2018 and Long-Term Performance
Overall Envestnet achieved solid performance in 2018 demonstrated by strong growth in revenue (19%). GAAP net income of $4.0 million and GAAP net income per diluted share of $0.12 improved significantly from 2017 due to the strong revenue growth and management of operating expenses. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per diluted share grew at 22% and 47%, respectively. These results exceeded our long-term growth targets and were supported by the accomplishment of key strategic objectives critical to our future growth. Revenue and adjusted EBITDA are important value drivers for our business as we look to grow while maintaining profitability.
Our results were strong across our business, with the Envestnet segment, which includes our Enterprise and Tamarac wealth management offerings, growing revenue 20% over the prior year. The Yodlee segment performed equally well, growing revenue 15%. Both segments also expanded profit margins meaningfully. 
Financial Performance 2018 vs. 2017

Wealth platform total accounts increased by 3.9 million representing a  56% year-over-year increase.
Wealth platform assets increased by $1.1 trillion representing a  62% year-over-year increase.
Signed and onboarded new enterprise customers, including cross-sell synergies with our Yodlee business.
Completed the acquisition of FolioDynamix (closed on January 2, 2018) a provider of integrated wealth management technology solutions. This acquisition, our sixth significant transaction since 2010, expands our industry footprint, allowing us to further leverage our operating scale and data analytics capabilities as we continue to build the financial wellness network and help our clients deliver better outcomes.
5 Year Performance
In 2018, we continued to build on our proven record of innovation and growth. We operateexperienced robust revenue growth, and increased our market share in the growing $21.3 trillion advisor marketplace. We now serve 31% of independent advisors and 40% of large RIAs (those with over $1 billion in assets under management). Envestnet’s 2018 performance continues to demonstrate our ability to build sustained core growth across all our key metrics and to achieve our long-term strategic goals. Additionally, our cumulative total shareholder return for the last 5 years was 22% and has exceeded that of the Russell 2000 Index of 16%.
While our GAAP Net Income (Loss) varied from year-to-year, our non-GAAP performance, which adjusts primarily for non-cash and non-recurring expenses, was strong and continued to improve, as illustrated below.

Shareholder Engagement
Envestnet’s current executive compensation program is reflective of a comprehensive evaluation by the Compensation Committee and management, and includes the feedback and perspectives of shareholders. In 2018 Envestnet’s compensation program received support from 97% of votes cast. In the last year, we reached out to shareholders representing approximately 76% of our outstanding shares, and received feedback from shareholders representing approximately 29% of our outstanding shares. Each discussion with our shareholders was interactive and constructive. We also engaged with proxy advisory firms to gain insight into their views on our executive compensation programs. Our Committee and management will continue to reach out to our shareholders on an annual basis.
Based on the feedback we received from our shareholders in 2018 and 2019 and our internal review of our programs, several changes to our program and processes were implemented for fiscal year 2018, as highlighted below. The Compensation Committee is committed to engaging with shareholders on executive compensation and making pay program changes that are directly responsive to shareholder feedback and that enhance alignment of our program with the Envestnet business strategy.
Enhanced the structure of the Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”) in 2018 based on pre-established goals weighted heavily on Company performance, with a small portion tied to individual performance.
Implemented a Performance Share Unit (“PSU”) program which adds a three-year Company performance-based component to the long-term program. This program will only reward executives if pre-established performance goals are achieved after the three-year performance period.
Selected performance measures that provide a balanced view of results in the PSU program. The measures drive top line growth, profitability and relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) focus.
Adopted a clawback policy on incentive awards for all Section 16 officers.
Introduced stock ownership guidelines for NEOs.

Envestnet’s Compensation Philosophy and Guiding Principles
Our Company’s philosophy is to attract and motivate employees and provide them with competitive, environmentperformance-based compensation that encourages achievement of results that create long-term shareholder value. Our total rewards practices are aligned with the market, consistent with our risk profile and reflective of solid governance practices. The following principles are the basis for our executive compensation program and align pay with performance and shareholder interests:

Compensation is designedaligned against clearly articulated goals and results.
We reward performance consistent with our long-term business strategy and aligned with long-term shareholder value creation.


Compensation Decision Process and Decisions 2018
In the first quarter of each year, the Compensation Committee and management consider the performance for the prior fiscal year when determining annual cash bonuses as well as equity awards for the NEOs. The stock-based awards granted in the first quarter of each year are made for performance in the prior year and therefore the stock-based awards granted in 2019 are considered part of 2018 compensation.
As discussed above, overall Envestnet performance was strong in 2018 as reflected in our above expectations revenue and adjusted EBITDA performance relative to attractour long-term strategic plan. Individual contributions by each of our NEOs were also significant, as further described in the Annual Incentive Plan ("AIP") section of this CD&A. Incentive compensation decisions for 2018 are reflective of strong corporate performance and retain talentedsignificant individual contributions.
To manage the total potential dilution from stock-based awards to executives who can execute our strategy.and other employees, the number of shares granted each year are adjusted up or down based on prior year performance. The discussion below describesactual grant date value of such award will vary depending on the material elementsstock price on the date of grant.
The Compensation Committee also considered market data for relevant positions. Total compensation decisions for the CEO and other NEOs were compared to the proxy peer group (described in detail on page 26) and market data for relevant positions. Overall, the total compensation for the CEO and on average for other NEOs was between the 25th percentile and the median of the 2016 compensation program for our named executive officerspeer group and market, with variation by position.
Based on this process, the manner in whichCommittee approved the following compensation decisions were made.

·

Align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders through a pay‑for‑performance philosophy.

We have established a set of guiding principles that have provided the foundation for all compensation programs for executive officers and all other employees. These guiding principles are as follows:

·

Pay for performance in such a way as to drive our business strategy and objectives and create shareholder value, consistent with an acceptable risk profile and through legal and ethical means;

·

The amount of overall total compensation should be attractive to executive officers, affordable for the company, proportional to the executive officer’s contribution, and fair to shareholders and employees, while providing payouts that are clearly aligned with actual performance;

·

Compensation should be transparent, understandable and effectively communicated to shareholders and employees; and

·

Avoid controversial pay practices.

We are committed to providing a comprehensive total rewards program to attract, retain, and reward highly qualified, diverse and productive employees. The total rewards program emphasizes alignment of employee efforts to support our corporate strategies. The components of the program include compensation, benefits, learning and development opportunities and recognition of employee performance. We strive to remain externally competitive in relevant labor markets while maintaining internal equity. The program also promotes fiscally responsible pay decisions, encourages efficient use of our resources and ensures compliance with applicable legal and contractual requirements.

To our employees, our compensation philosophy means fair pay based on their role in the company, a subjective determination of the market value of their job and their performance in that position. In addition, there is opportunity for additional rewards when we meet or exceed business objectives. Performance rewards provide employees with the opportunity to earn additional compensation beyond their base salary.

Compensation for our executive officers consists of three primary elements: A base salary which is paid in semi‑monthly cash installments, an annual incentive‑based cash payment, which is typically paid in February of the subsequent year or in quarterly installments and an annual grant of restricted stock units and stock options. For details regarding why we pay each element and how the amounts are determined, see “—Our 2016 Executive Compensation Program—Base Salary,” “—Our 2016 Executive Compensation Program—Annual Incentive‑Based Cash Compensation,” and “—Our 2016 Executive Compensation Program—Equity Awards.” Although these sections discuss our practices employed in 2016, generally we plan to continue these practices in future years.

We do not have a specific policy that governs the allocation of compensation between cash and non‑cash compensation or between long‑term or current compensation. The allocations are driven primarily through a desire to pay what we view as competitive compensation, as determined solely by us based on our review of broad‑based third party surveys and other generally available information, which we have historically used to obtain a general understanding of market compensation practices.

Role of Compensation Committee and Management

The Compensation Committee consists of three independent non‑employee members of our Board. The Compensation Committee reviewshas responsibility to oversee and as it deems appropriate, recommends to the Board policies, practices and procedures relating to the compensation of officers and other managerial employees and the establishment and administration of employee benefit plans.

The Compensation Committee determines, and recommends to the Board for approval, the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation without the participation of the Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for reviewing the performance of the Chief Executive Officer. Our Chief Executive Officer is the only executive officer that has a role in determining the compensation of our named executive officers other than himself. The Chief Executive Officer will provide the Compensation Committee with recommendations, which the Committee has the discretion to approve or disapprove, for (a) changes to base salary, (b) distribution of annual incentive‑based cash compensation and (c) restricted stock and stock option grants.

Competitive Market Review 

In 2015, the Compensation Committee retained an independent third party compensation specialist, Compensation Advisory Partners (“CAP”), to assist in identifying and facilitating certain changes to our compensation and employee retention programs, including the amounts of compensation paid to our senior management, including the named executive officers, and advice regarding employment agreements. As a result of this analysis, in 2016 employment agreements were implemented for key executive officers and additional market adjustments were made as needed and approved by the Compensation Committee.

Our 2016 Executive Compensation Program

Our 2016 executive compensation program had three primary components: base salary, annual incentive‑based cash compensation and equity awards.

Base Salary. Base salaries are intended to provide our executives with a degree of financial certainty and stability that does not depend on company performance. In determining the base salaries for our Chief Executive Officer and the other named executive officers, the Compensation Committee,programs at the beginning of each year, reviews the overall scope of each executive officer’s responsibilities while taking into account the base salaries paid by companies with which we compete for talent. For 2016, base salary adjustments were based on a subjective determination of competitive market rates, individual performance, changes in job duties and responsibilities and our overall financial performance. We did not follow a specific formula or set of criteria in determining base salary adjustments in 2016.

Market data, such as the base salary of comparable jobs at comparable companies, were reviewed to provide guidance as to what constitutes competitive base salaries. In addition, individual performance of the executive’s duties and responsibilities is also considered. If the executive has performed his or her duties above expectations, then an increase in the base salary may be justified. Similarly, if the executive is given different duties or responsibilities or if they have changed jobs within the company, then their base salary may be increased or decreased accordingly.

In all cases where base salaries may be changed, the overall compensation budget must be sufficient for such changes. In certain extreme cases, our financial results and performance may lead to reductions in base salaries as a cost cutting measure.

24


Annual Incentive‑Based Cash Compensation. We maintain an annual incentive‑based cash compensation program comprising two elements: the Annual Incentive Program, which is intended to reward executives and eligible employees based on our revenue growth and profitability; and Incentive Compensation, which is intended to reward executives and employees for gross sales from expanding existing client relationships and developing new client relationships.

Beginning in 2015, the Compensation Committee established a two part process for paying annual incentive-based cash compensation to its executive officers. For the first step, in order for the payment of the incentive-based cash compensation to qualify as performance-based compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, the Compensation Committee established a performance goal based on performance metrics pursuant to the 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan. If the performance goal is not met, no annual incentive-based cash compensation will be paid to executive officers for such year. If the performance goal is met, for the second step, a cash bonus pool is established pursuant to which payments can be made to the executive officers as described below for the Annual Incentive Program and Incentive Compensation subject to the applicable limits contained in the 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan.

Annual Incentive Program. Under the Annual Incentive Program, a predetermined percentage of the revenues and profits from the preceding year are distributed to employees, including our executive officers.Envestnet. At the beginning of each year, the Compensation Committee approves the calculation methodology, or formula, which will be used atcomponents of compensation for the NEOs, the individual performance goals for the Chief Executive Officer, and sets the performance goals for any related compensation programs.

At the end of the year, to determine the amount of the annual incentive distribution. The formula includes the distribution amount as a percentage of revenues and EBITDA, as adjusted for certain items as defined by the Compensation Committee as well as a stretch incentive targetconducts an in-depth review of overall Company results and a minimum threshold. The distribution percentage, as determined by the Compensation Committee, is generally derived by (a) investigating the annual compensation practices of comparable financial services firms and (b) considering the resulting aggregate incentive for management and employees to meet or exceed the firm’s financial expectations.

In calculating the amount to be paid under the Annual Incentive Program, the Compensation Committee utilizes revenues and adjusted EBITDA, which is priorCEO’s performance relative to the payment of any amount paid pursuant to the Annual Incentive Program and certain extraordinary non‑cash or non‑recurring general and administrative expenses.identified goals. The Compensation Committee may exercise its discretion to adjust for revenues and expenses attributable to acquisitions, as well as extraordinary or non‑recurring gains or losses. The amounts paid for 2016 under the Annual Incentive Program were based on our financial performance during the 12‑month period ending December 31, 2016. The Compensation Committee established a minimum threshold amount of revenue and adjusted EBITDA, defined as described above, of $459.5 million and $69.2 million, respectively. Performance above either or bothCEO provides an overview of the minimum threshold amounts would result in an aggregate annual incentive pool amountperformance of 0.25% of total revenue for revenue equal to or in excesseach of the threshold amount plus 0.25% of total revenue for each incremental $5.8 million of revenue between $459.5 million and $494.4 million plus 1.65% of the excess revenue above $494.4 million plus 3.30% of the incremental revenue above $552.5 million plus 5.12% of incremental revenue above $581.6 million plus 3.30% of incremental revenue above $639.8 million and 4.25% of threshold adjusted EBITDA if the threshold amount has been achieved plus 13.4% of the excess adjusted EBITDA above the threshold amount plus 23.4% of incremental adjusted EBITDA above $115.3 million. The Compensation Committee has final authority to exercise its discretion in setting compensation amounts or awards for the company as a whole and for individuals and is not bound by the formula or by recommendations of Mr. Bergman nor of any consultant. For the amount to be earned in 2016, the Compensation Committee agreed with management’s recommendation and approved the amount to be paid under the Annual Incentive Program of approximately $19.5 million.

At the end of each year, an allocation of the Annual Incentive Program to each eligible employee, including executive officers, is made. The CEO recommendsother NEOs to the Compensation Committee the distribution amounts for each executive officer, including himself, based on a subjective analysis of his or her performance. For the named executive officers, the CEO subjectively assesses their performance broadly with consideration given to four general categories: integrity, intelligence/business knowledge, qualitative considerations and effectiveness. No quantitative criteria are used. The CEO’s analysis is based on his sole and absolute discretion when assessing performance. Similarly, the amounts he recommends for individual Annual Incentive Program recommendations are based on his sole and absolute discretion. The CEO presents his recommendations to the Compensation Committee for their consideration along with his

individual Annual Incentive Program distributioncompensation recommendations. The Compensation Committee reviewsexercises its discretion to make changes to any recommendations made by the CEO and makes the final approval for annual incentive distributionsapproves all compensation decisions for the named executive officers, including the CEO. For the year ending December 31, 2016, the Compensation Committee chose to accept the individual annual bonus distribution recommendations which it received from the CEO. Distributions of the Annual Incentive Program earned for a fiscal year are paid in the subsequent fiscal year, generally within the first two months.

Incentive Compensation. We maintain a compensation program with amounts paid to eligible employees as incentive compensation based on a target percentage of gross sales, though the total amount of incentive compensation is not an exact percentage of gross sales. The target percentage is revised annually. For the purposes of determining the total amount available for incentive compensation, we estimate our new fee revenue based on gross sales. We do this by calculating the average fee paid on all of our products, taking into account differing fee rates on the various products we sell and various fee schedules related to different client programs. The average will also vary by region due to the mix of clients and products within each region. In 2016, we targeted 12.0% of such estimated fee revenue to be used for total incentive compensation, with discretion to award total incentive compensation of up to an additional 1.5% of estimated fee revenue. Incentive Compensation amounts are calculated quarterly and paid out in 20.0% installments over the subsequent five quarters. Incentive Compensation payments are not guaranteed. The recipient must still be employed at the time of payment. Incentive Compensation payments are allocated among sales and service personnel and sales management, and the allocation of the incentive compensation payments is approved at the discretion of Mr. Bergman and Mr. Crager. In exercising their discretion, these officers annually establish a framework of percentages of the total available amount that is to be paid to different categories of employees, but there is no predetermined formula. The amount of the Incentive Compensation payments may also be adjusted based on our overall performance. In 2016, approximately $13.6 million in incentive compensation was earned by eligible employees, of which Mr. Crager received $182,000. Mr. Crager is the only executive officer who receives Incentive Compensation. The amount of Mr. Crager’s Incentive Compensation was based on our total gross sales and the CEO’s subjective assessment of his leadership and overall results of the sales organization.

Equity Awards. We grant stock options and restricted stock units to our current and newly hired executive officers to enable them to share in our success and to reinforce a corporate culture that aligns employee interestsNEOs with the interestsobjective of our stockholders. All equity grants to our executive officers to date have been awarded under the Envestnet Asset Management Group, Inc. 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, the Envestnet, Inc. 2015 Acquisition Equity Award Plan, or the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan (the “Equity Plans”). It has been our practice to annually grant equity awards to employees, including executives, in recognition of performance and as an incentive for retention, as well as to align their interestsensuring that compensation delivered is aligned with the interests of our stockholders. The size of these grants is based on a number of factors, including our subjective analysis of competitive practices, individualachieved performance as determined inresults. Compensation decisions for the discretion of the Compensation Committee, changes in the scope of the individual’s position, internal equity and retention potential. Ultimately, all amounts were determined in the sole and absolute discretion ofCEO are made by the Compensation Committee based on its conclusionsassessment of Company results and his individual performance.

The Compensation Committee retained Compensation Advisory Partners (“CAP”) to assist the Compensation Committee with the review of the executive compensation programs. CAP worked with the Compensation Committee to develop a peer group and provided the data on executive compensation design practices and pay levels among those peer companies.

What We Do and What We Don’t Do
Our Compensation Committee believes that our compensation practices are key to furthering our compensation principles and ensuring sound governance practices.
What We DoWhat We Don’t Do
ü  Pay for Performance by basing a substantial part of NEOs compensation on company and individual performance, including PSUs
ü  Conduct annual outreach with investors and an annual say-on-pay advisory vote
ü  Strong emphasis on long term equity compensation; majority of CEO pay is in the form of equity compensation
ü  Retain an independent compensation consultant
ü  Maintain a clawback policy on incentive awards
ü  Require stock ownership (as a multiple of base salary) for NEOs (guidelines on page 28)
û  No single trigger vesting of equity awards following a change in- control
û   No excise-tax “gross-ups”
û   No Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”)
û   No re-pricing of underwater stock options
û   No excessive perquisites
û   No hedging of company's securities by employees


Peer Group 
In 2017, the Compensation Committee adopted a 14-company peer group to provide a market reference point on executive compensation practices and pay levels. The peer group was developed with the assistance of the Committee’s independent consultant based on the following criteria:
Companies that operate in similar businesses to Envestnet, including technology/software services.
Companies with which we compete for business, talent and investor dollars as defined by industry and business mix.
Company size defined by revenue and market capitalization.
The Committee did not make changes to whatthe peer group for 2018 other than excluding DST Systems, which was appropriateacquired and necessary after consideration of these factors. Financial Engines, Inc., which is no longer a public company. The peer group is fully vetted every other year to determine if companies should be added or removed. The next review will occur in 2019.    
The Compensation Committee uses peer group data as one input when determining pay levels and also considers company and individual performance, individual contributions and role criticality in their deliberations. Envestnet’s revenue and market capitalization is between the 25th percentile and median of the peer group listed below and the Compensation Committee took the size positioning into account when reviewing compensation levels for NEOs.

The Compensation Committee used the peer group to review executive compensation design practices and pay levels for its NEOs. In addition, it also reviewed data from third party surveys, particularly technology firms, to obtain a formula similarbroad view of the competitive marketplace for talent. A summary of the data was provided to the revenueCompensation Committee by its independent consultant as a reference in evaluating compensation for Envestnet positions.

Individual and team performance assessment included cross-sell revenue synergies, efficiencies and other goals specific to roles.
To determine 2018 payments under the AIP, the Committee evaluated Company performance against the pre-established financial goals (as described below).

The Company performance during the 12‑month period ending December 31, 2015. The Compensation Committee established a minimum threshold amount of revenue, defined as described above, of $342.8 million. Performance above the minimum threshold amounts would result in an aggregate annual stock option pool amount of 0.22% of shares outstanding for revenue equal to or in excess of the threshold amount plus 0.22% of total shares outstanding for each $4.3 million of incremental revenue between $342.8 million and $364.2 million plus 0.019% of shares outstanding for revenue above $364.2 million plus 0.038% of shares outstanding for each $4.3 million of incremental revenue above $407.1 million plus 0.061% of shares outstanding for each $4.3 million of incremental revenue above $428.5 million plus 0.038% of shares outstanding for each $4.3 million of incremental revenue above $471.4 million. The value of the options is estimated using the Black Scholes methodology described below in footnote 2 of the 2016 Grants of Plan‑Based Awards table. The value of restricted stock units results in a dollar‑for‑dollar offset to the valuereflects 75% of the annual stock option pool amount. Historically, vestingincentive and was achieved at 101% of target.

For each NEO, the compensation committee evaluated their individual and team performance against the metrics described above for equity award grants occurs annually2018. The performance percentage for such metric assigned to each executive was above 100% and up to 125% based on such assessment, which, when combined with the anniversaryresults of the grant date with one‑third vesting onfinancial metrics, resulted in the payments noted in the table below to each of the first three anniversaries. In 2015, stock options were granted that vest over three years, with one third (1/3)NEOs. Additionally, as a result of its review of total compensation relative to the Peer Group and the importance of retention in light of the award vestingannounced organizational changes, the compensation committee approved additional discretionary payments to Mr. Bergman and Mr. Crager as noted in the table below.

(1) Mr. Arora did not receive a specific payment for his 2018 AIP grant. Instead, as part of his negotiated separation agreement previously filed as part of a Form 8-K by Envestnet, Mr. Arora received a cash severance payment in exchange for a release of claims and his agreement to comply with certain restrictive covenants.     
Equity Awards. Our practice is to grant equity awards annually to eligible employees, including NEOs, to recognize performance, to align equity participants with the interests of our shareholders and to retain top talent. Long-term equity incentive awards represent a significant portion of the grant dateNEOs total compensation. For the CEO and one-twelfth (1/12)on average for other NEOs, equity awards represent approximately 70% and 60% respectively, of annual compensation. In 2018, NEOs generally received PSUs and RSUs as part of their equity awards. Equity grants are awarded under the Envestnet shareholder approved plans.

Of the total number of equity awards granted to the NEOs in 2018, 65%-75% of the option award vesting on each three-month anniversary for the following two years,total were delivered in RSUs and restricted stock units were granted with one-twelfth (1/12)25%-35% of the restricted stock unit award vesting on each three-month anniversary for the following three years. In 2016, stock options and restricted stock unitstotal were granted thatdelivered in PSUs.

RSUs vest over three years, with one third (1/3) of the award vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date and one twelfth (1/12) of the option award vesting on each three-month anniversary

for the following two years. In keeping2018, the Compensation Committee adopted PSUs, a new equity vehicle that is intended to reward participating executives, including all NEOs, if specific 3-year (2018-2020) Company and market performance goals are achieved. The PSUs are based on four equally weighted metrics, as described below, and the final number of shares earned under the plan, if any, will vary based on the degree of achievement on each metric. The maximum number of PSUs that can be earned will be 150% of the target award. Dividends are accrued and are only paid to the extent shares are earned.

* Compound Annual Growth Rate
Revenue, EBITDA and EPS growth were selected for the PSU program as they are important measures of top-line and bottom-line results. While some of the metrics overlap with the annual practice of issuing equity grants in the first quarter of the company’s fiscal year, the Compensation Committee authorized equity grants equal to 1.10% of our outstanding number of shares as of December 31, 2015. Consistent with our executive compensation philosophy and to better align the interests of our employees with those of our stockholders through pay‑for‑performance, the number of shares of each award was made 50% in restricted stock units and 50% in stock options.

Additionally, in 2016, in connection with entering into new employment agreements, and pursuant to the 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan, Mr. Bergman, Mr. Crager and Mr. D’Arrigo each received a one-time performance-based restricted stock unit award in 2016 (the “PSU Awards”), Mr. Bergman received a one-time stock option grant, and Mr. Grinis received a one-time restricted stock unit award (the “RSU Award”). Subject to the terms of the PSU Award and theincentive plan, the executivePSUs are measured over a three-year period, focusing executives on sustained multi-year results. Relative TSR was selected for its alignment with shareholders. No PSUs will earn a percentage of his PSU Award based onbe earned if achievement is below the Company’s Adjusted EBITDAthreshold level.

The Committee determined to continue using PSUs for the relevant performance period. To the extent the Adjusted EBITDA during the2019-2021 performance period is less than sixty percent (60%) ofand increased the applicable goal, then no PSUs shall be earned. To the extent that the performance measure is satisfied following the end of each of the performance periods, a number equal to the total numberweighting of PSUs multiplied by an applicable performance percentage shall be earnedto 50% of total long-term incentives granted in 2019 to NEOs.

Benefits and become “Banked Units.” To the extent any units are settled, they will no longer be considered Banked Units. Subject to the executive’s continued employment, the executive shall become vested ratably in his outstanding Banked Units on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date determined as follows: one-third (1/3) of the Banked Units following the first performance period shall become vested on the first anniversary of the grant date; one-half (1/2) of the outstanding Banked Units following the second performance period shall become vested on the second anniversary of the grant date; and all of the remaining Banked Units following the third and final performance period shall become vested on the third anniversary of the grant date (such percentage of vesting referred to as the vested percentage). The stock option grant to Mr. Bergman will vest as follows: one-third (1/3) of the stock options shall become vested on the first anniversary of the grant date and one twelfth (1/12) of the stock options shall become vested on each quarterly anniversary of the grant date thereafter. The RSU Award to Mr. Grinis will vest as follows: one-third (1/3) of the RSU Award shall become vested on the first anniversary of the grant date and one twelfth (1/12) of the RSU Award shall become vested on each quarterly anniversary of the grant date thereafter

Our CEO, with the help of his management team, recommended to the Compensation Committee individuals who should receive equity awards, the components of the award and the size of each individual award. The individual component and distribution amounts that were recommended were based on the CEO’s subjective review of each individual’s performance within his or her role in our Company since the previous year’s grant, as well as a subjective determination of the competitive practices necessary to retain key employees. This recommendation was submitted to the Compensation Committee for its consideration and approval. As noted above, the Compensation Committee has final authority to exercise its discretion in setting compensation amounts or awards, and the components of those amounts or awards and is not bound by the use of any formula or recommendations of the CEO nor of any consultant. In its discretion, the Compensation Committee approved the recommendations as submitted. The equity grants to our named executive officers on February 29, 2016 were as follows:

·

Short‑ and long‑termShort and long-term disability, accidental death and dismemberment;

We believe theseour benefits arepackage is consistent with companies with which we compete for talent.

 In addition to the benefits described above, our NEOs receive certain limited perquisites. Perquisites available to NEOs include an allowance for parking and car and an allowance for health and wellness activities.

Stock Ownership Guidelines
The Company believes that requiring executive ownership in our common stock creates alignment between executives and shareholders and encourages executives to act to increase shareholder value. In October 2018, the Company established stock ownership guidelines for its Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”). The stock ownership guidelines for the NEOs are as follows:

The CEO is required to hold shares of common stock of the Company with a value equal to at least 6x his base salary; and
All other NEOs are required to hold shares of common stock of the Company with a value equal to at least 3x base salary.

​    These guidelines must be met within five years of becoming an NEO or assuming a new position and are reviewed annually by the Board. As of December 31, 2018, all NEOs subject to these guidelines were in compliance.
NEOs are required to hold exercised option shares and other stock awards until ownership requirements are met. NEOs who fail to achieve these ownership levels will not be eligible to sell shares until they comply with the guidelines.
Shares owned directly by the NEO (including those held as a joint tenant or as tenant in common), RSUs (vested and unvested), shares owned in a self-directed IRA and certain shares owned or held for the benefit of a spouse or minor children are counted toward meeting the guidelines.
Stock options (whether vested or unvested) and performance share awards are not counted toward meeting the ownership guidelines.
Compensation Recoupment (“Clawback”) Policy
In January 2018, the Compensation Committee adopted a compensation clawback policy, which provides that in the event a “covered person” engages in fraud or other intentional misconduct that is materially related to a restatement of earned awards

We do not currently have a formal policy requiring a fixed course of action with respectour financial statements or that results in material financial or reputational harm to compensation adjustments following later restatements of financial results. Under those circumstances, the Board orCompany, the Compensation Committee would evaluatedetermine, in its discretion, whether compensation adjustments were appropriate,any unsettled incentive awards held by the Covered Officer would be forfeited or any previously settled incentive awards held by such person would be required under applicable law, based onto be repaid to the facts and circumstances relating to any such restatement.

Regulatory limitations

Section 162(m)Company. For purposes of the Internal Revenue clawback policy, a “covered person” is any person who is an “officer” (as that term is defined in Section 16 of the Exchange Act), as well any other officer of the Company designated by the Compensation Committee.

Impact of Tax Treatments on Compensation
Code generallySection 162(m) limits the deductibility for federal income tax purposes of annual compensation in excess of $1 million paid to “covered employees” (as defined by Code) of the Company, unless the compensation satisfied an exception, such as the exception for performance-based compensation. Performance-based compensation generally includes only payments that are contingent on achievement of performance objectives, and excludes fixed or guaranteed payments. 
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("the Act") was enacted, which, among other things, repealed the performance-based compensation exception and expanded the definition of covered employee. The changes to Section 162(m) are effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2018. The Act includes a transition rule so that these changes do not apply to compensation paid pursuant to a “binding written contract” that was in effect on November 2, 2017 and that was not materially modified on or after such date. 
Because of the performance-based compensation exception repeal, amounts paid pursuant to a contract effective after November 2, 2017 will not be deductible as performance-based compensation, and the Compensation Committee will not need to consider the requirements of the performance-based compensation exception when considering the design of any such future contracts as part of our compensation program. For amounts paid under contracts in effect on November 2, 2017 that were intended to constitute performance-based compensation, the Compensation Committee will continue to consider the performance-based compensation exception when making determinations of performance under those contracts. 
The Act also expands the definition of covered employee. For 2018, our covered employees included the CEO and other NEOs (but not the CFO) who were executive officers as of the last day of our fiscal year. For 2019 and after, our covered employees will generally include anyone who (i) was the CEO or CFO at any time during the year, (ii) was one of the other NEOs who was an executive officer as of the last day of the fiscal year and (iii) was a covered employee for any previous year after 2017. 
As with prior years, although the Compensation Committee will consider deductibility under Section 162(m) with respect to the chief executive officer or any of the next three most highly paidcompensation arrangements for executive officers, deductibility will not be the sole factor used in determining levels or methods of a publicly held corporation (other thancompensation. Since our compensation objectives may not always be consistent with the Chief Financial Officer). We expect that on an ongoing basisrequirements for full deductibility, we will generally consider whether a form ofand our subsidiaries may enter into compensation willarrangements under which payments would not be deductible under Section 162(m) in determining executive compensation, though other factors will also be considered. However, we may authorize compensation payments that do not comply with the exemptions under Section 162(m) when we believe that such payments are appropriate to attract and retain executive talent.

.

In light of the strong shareholder support on our say‑on‑pay proposal in 2016, we made no significant changes to the executive compensation program based on concerns or issues raised by our shareholders. We continue to desire feedback from our shareholders on our executive compensation program and will consider the views of our shareholders as we evaluate our compensation program in 2017.

20162018 Summary Compensation

The following table contains compensation information for our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer, and the three other most highly compensated executive officers. We refer to these individuals as our “named executive officers” or NEOs in other parts of this proxy statement. The information included in this table reflects compensation paid to our NEOs for services rendered to us.

On March 15, 2018, the Compensation Committee granted non-equity incentive compensation awards. The actual cash value was paid in 2019 based on financial metrics and individual factors as described above AIP section of the CD&A on page 27 above. Each of the financial metrics has a threshold target that must be hit in order to receive a payment equal to 50% of the target value. The threshold value listed in the table above assumes that the threshold amount was hit for each of individual financial metrics and individual factors, but it is possible that a lower amount could be paid out for each executive if the threshold targets are not hit for one or more of the financial metrics.

(2)On March 15, 2018 and July 31, 2018 the Board granted performance-based restricted stock unit awards or PSUs. The actual number of PSUs that will become vested is based on financial metrics described above in the Equity Awards section of the CD&A on page 27 above. Each of the financial metrics has a threshold target that must be hit in order to receive a payment equal to 50% of the target value. The threshold value listed in the table above assumes that the threshold amount was hit for each of individual financial metrics, but it is possible that a lower amount could become vested if the threshold targets are not hit for one or more of the financial metrics.

(3)All restricted stock units and stock option grants were approved by the Compensation Committee and the Board on their respective grant dates.


(2)

The PSU Awards granted to Mr. Bergman, Mr. Crager and Mr. D’Arrigo were subject to a performance goal based on Adjusted EBITDA during 2016. Such performance goal was met as certified by the Compensation Committee in 2017, the applicable performance percentage was determined to be equal to one-hundred percent (100%), and a number equal to the total number of PSUs listed in the maximum column became “Banked Units” as of such certification. The Banked Units remain subject to service-based vesting conditions and will vest as follows: one-third (1/3) of the Banked Units following the first performance period shall become vested on the first anniversary of the grant date; one-half (1/2) of the outstanding Banked Units following the second performance period shall become vested on the second anniversary of the grant date; and all of the remaining Banked Units following the third and final performance period shall become vested on the third anniversary of the grant date (such percentage of vesting referred to as the vested percentage).

(3)

The fair value of stock options granted was determined using the Black Scholes model as of the grant date. The model for the February 29, 2016 grant assumes: (i) the stock option would be exercised 6 years after grant date, (ii) expected stock price volatility of 42.13%, (iii) a risk free yield equal to 1.57% and (iv) our dividend yield (0%) would remain constant from grant date to exercise date. The model for the May 12, 2016 grant assumes: (i) the stock option would be exercised 6 years after grant date, (ii) expected stock price volatility of 42.42%, (iii) a risk free yield equal to 1.41% and (iv) our dividend yield (0%) would remain constant from grant date to exercise date.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

On February 9, 2015, the Board adopted the Envestnet, Inc. Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”), and the Deferred Compensation Plan became effective March 1, 2015. The Deferred Compensation Plan is an unfunded deferred compensation plan that is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

amended (the “Code”). 

Persons eligible to participate in the Deferred Benefit Plan are called “Participants.”

“Participants”. 

Under the Deferred Compensation Plan, Participants have the opportunity to elect to defer receipt of up to 90% of their base salary and bonus. Under the Deferred Compensation Plan, Participants have the right to elect to receive distributions on a specified payment date in the future, or in a lump sum or annual installment payments following the termination of employment. Certain revisions to the distribution election may be made if done in accordance with the Deferred Compensation Plan.

Amounts deferred by a Participant under the Deferred Compensation Plan will be credited to a deferral account that will be used to determine the amounts to be paid to the Participant under the Deferred Compensation Plan. Amounts deferred will be credited or debited with a hypothetical rate of return based on the performance of the available measurement funds selected by the Participant among those made available by the Company under the Deferred Compensation Plan. The deferral account represents an unfunded, unsecured promise by the company to pay such amounts in the future, and does not represent ownership of, or any ownership interest in, any particular assets of the Company. Participants will at all times be fully vested in all deferral contributions and earnings thereon.

32



The following table sets forth information concerning nonqualified deferred compensation of our NEOs who participated in the Deferred Compensation Plan in 2016.2018. The amounts set forth in this table include only contributions made and earnings received during 20162018 and do not include contribution and earnings with respect to the 20162018 bonus paid in 2017.

Potential Payments Upon Termination of Change of Control

Employment Agreements. Each of the NEOs is a party to an individual employment agreement with the Company (the “Employment Agreements”). With the exception of Mr. Arora’s Employment Agreement, the Employment Agreements have a three-year term, with an automatic one-year renewal unless either party provides advance written notice of non-renewal. Subject to the signing of a release and compliance with the terms of the Employment Agreements, in the event of a termination of the executive’s employment either without cause or for good reason, the executive will be entitled to (i) “Severance Pay” equal to two (2) multiplied by the sum of his (a) base salary plus (b) an amount equal to the average of his most recent two annual bonuses (paid in equal installments on regular payment dates over two (2) years), (ii) a “Pro-Rata Bonus for Year of Termination” equal to the average of his most recent two annual bonuses multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which equals the number of days during the calendar year prior to the termination date and the denominator of which equals 365 (paid on the sixty-day anniversary of the termination date), and (iii) a “Health Care Continuation” lump sum cash payment equal to the applicable percentage of the monthly COBRA coverage in connection with his termination multiplied by eighteen months (with the applicable percentage equal to the percentage of the executive’s health care premium costs covered by the Company as of the termination date) (paid on the sixty-day anniversary of the termination date). Mr. Arora’s Employment Agreement does not have a term and upon termination without cause or for good reason, and subject to the signing of a release, Mr. Arora will be entitled to (i) “Severance Pay” equal to (a) twelve months of his base salary plus (b) the average of the

33


annual cash


bonus amounts paid in relation to the two years prior to the year in which termination occurs, and (ii) a “Health Care Continuation” payment equal to twelve months of the monthly COBRA premium cost applicable to Mr. Arora and his dependents (paid on the sixty-day anniversary of the termination date).

Under the terms of the Employment Agreements (with the exception of Mr. Arora’s and Mr. Grinis’s Employment Agreements), the executive is subject to an ongoing confidentiality obligation, a 24-month non-competition covenant, a 24-month non-solicitation of employees of the Company covenant (including former employees or consultants within the 12-month period prior to the executive’s termination date), and a 24-month non-solicitation of customers of the Company covenant (including prospective customers within the 12-month period prior to the executive’s termination date). Mr. Arora is not subject to restrictive covenant provisions pursuant to his Employment Agreement. The restrictive covenant provisions of the Grinis Employment Agreement have been adapted to comply with local California law and include an ongoing confidentiality obligation, ongoing restrictions on the use of certain Company confidential information (including methods of doing business, business plans, customer contact and relationship information and other valuable proprietary information concerning the Company and its affiliates), and a 24-month24‑month non-solicitation of employees of the Company covenant (including former employees or consultants within the 12-month period prior to Mr. Grinis’s termination date).


In the event that any payments made contingent upon a change in control of the Company would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code (with the exception of Mr. Arora’s Employment Agreement), then the amount of payments pursuant to the Employment Agreement would be reduced to the maximum amount that will cause the total amounts of the payment not to be subject to the excise tax, but only if the amount of such payments, after such reduction and after payment of all applicable taxes on the reduced amount, is equal to or greater than the amount of such payments the executive would otherwise be entitled to retain without such a reduction after the payment of all applicable taxes, including the excise tax. The Company also reserves the right to adopt a policy regarding recoupment of excess compensation applicable to its executives, including the executives. Such a policy would control over any inconsistent provision of the Employment Agreement and be binding on the executives.

Equity Incentive Plans.Plans. We currently maintain equity‑based incentive plans—plans - the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan and the Envestnet, Inc. Management Incentive Plan for Envestnet | Tamarac Management Employees (MIP) and the Envestnet, Inc. 2015 Acquisition Equity Award Plan. No new awards are being made under the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, the Envestnet, Inc. 2015 Acquisition Equity Award Plan or the MIP. We established the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan to (i) attract and retain key employees and other persons providing services to us and our related companies; (ii) motivate plan participants by means of appropriate incentive to achieve long‑range goals; (iii) provide incentive compensation opportunities that are competitive with those of other similar corporations; and (iv) further align plan participants’ interests with those of our stockholders.shareholders. Under the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan, we may issue stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other full value awards, as well as cash incentive awards.

In the event that (a) a Participant’s employment or service, as applicable, is terminated by us, our successor or one of our related companies that is the Participant’s employer for reasons other than cause (as defined in the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan) within 24 months following a change in control (as defined in the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan) or (b) the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan is terminated by us or our successor following a change in control without provision for the continuation of outstanding awards under the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan, all stock options and related awards which have not otherwise expired will become immediately exercisable and all other awards will become fully vested provided that the extent to which any award becomes vested based on the satisfaction of applicable performance goals or targets on or after a change in control, the Compensation Committee may make such determination either based on the determination of the satisfaction of the applicable performance goal based on actual performance through the date of such change in control or based on assumed performance at the target level through the date of such change in control. Awards outstanding under the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan will become fully vested and exercisable and all forfeiture restrictions on the awards will lapse if a change in control (as defined in the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan) occurs and the Participant’s awards are not converted, assumed or replaced, by awards of the surviving or successor entity or one of its affiliates.

34


Under our equity compensation plans, outstanding and unvested stock options may become fully vested and exercisable, and outstanding and unvested restricted stock units may become fully vested and be distributed upon a participant’s death, disability, or involuntary termination as determined by the Compensation Committee in its discretion. These provisions apply to all employees who participate in the Company’s equity plans. The outstanding equity awards held by the NEOs as of December 31, 20162018 are described above under “2016“2018 Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year‑End.”

End”.

With respect to the PSU Awards for Messrs. Bergman, Crager and D’Arrigo granted in 2017, except as otherwise provided below, any portion of the PSU Award that is not vested upon the executive’s termination of employment will be forfeited. If the executive’s employment is terminated without “cause”, for “good reason”, or upon death or “permanent disability”, and subject to the execution of a release, the executive shall become vested in all of the Banked Units on the applicable distribution dates. In the event of a change in control, the applicable performance measures for the PSU Awards will

be determined as if target performance had been satisfied but subject to continued service vesting; provided, that the Compensation Committee may decide to accelerate vesting at the time of such change in control.

Transferability. Awards under the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan are not transferable except as designated by the Participant by will or by laws of descent and distribution or, to the extent provided by the Committee, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order or to or for the benefit of the Participant’s family (including, without limitation, to a trust or partnership for the benefit of a Participant’s family).

Withholding.All awards and other payments under the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan are subject to withholding of all applicable taxes. With the consent of the Committee, withholding obligations may be satisfied with previously‑owned shares of common stock or shares of common stock to which the Participant is otherwise entitled under the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan. The amount withheld in the form of such shares may not exceed the maximum individual tax rate for the Participant in applicable jurisdictions for such Participant (based on the applicable rates of the relevant tax authorities (for example, federal, state and local)), including the Participant’s share of payroll or similar taxes, as provided in law, regulations or the authority’s administrative practices, not to exceed the highest statutory rate in that jurisdiction, even if that rate exceeds the highest rate that may be applicable to the specific Participant.

Amendment and Termination. The Board may, at any time, amend or terminate the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan, and the Board or the Compensation Committee may amend any award, provided that no amendment or termination may adversely affect the rights of any Participant without the Participant’s written consent. Adjustments to the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan and awards on account of business transactions are not subject to the foregoing prohibition. The provisions of the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan that prohibit repricing of stock options and stock appreciation rights cannot be amended unless the amendment is approved by our stockholders.shareholders. The 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan also permits the Board to amend the 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan and any awards that are subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (relating to nonqualified deferred compensation) as it deems necessary to conform to Section 409A.

Potential Payments on Termination or Change of Control

The following tables quantify the potential payments upon termination that our NEOs would receive assuming that the relevant termination event had occurred on December 31, 2016.2018. The last table quantifies potential payments upon an involuntary termination without cause and a change of control that our executive officers would receive assuming that both the termination without cause and change in control had occurred on December 31, 2016.

There is no severance or health care continuation payable to any of the NEOs as a result of a termination due to death or disability. The pro-rata bonus is calculated as the average bonus for the executive officer paid with respect to the two calendar years preceding the date of termination multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which equals the number of day so the year worked prior to the termination and the denominator of which equals 365. Because the assumed termination date is the last day of the year, the pro-rata bonus amounts listed above equal the average bonus paid for FY 20152017 and 20142016 for the applicable executive officers. For Mr. Arora, the bonus amount listed is equal to the average bonus for the executive officer paid with respect to the two calendar years preceding the date of termination without multiplication by the pro-rata fraction. The unvested equity awards held by the NEOs that were granted in 2016 in consideration for the execution of employment agreements and for retention purposes would vest on a termination due to death or permanent disability. Additionally, the unvested equity awardsPSUs granted to Mr. Arora for retention purposes following the acquisitionNEOs in 2018 would remain eligible to vest at the end of Yodlee, Inc.the performance period in an amount equal to the number of PSUs granted multiplied by the performance percentage determined based on the actual performance of the Company during the performance period further multiplied by a pro-rata fraction based on the number of days worked between the grant date and the unvested restricted stock awardsdate of termination divided by 1095. Because the performance percentage is not yet known, the amount in the table estimates the value of the PSUs granted to Mr. Arora pursuant to the Envestnet, Inc. 2015 Acquisition Equity Plan heldin 2018 that would become vested on such a termination dueassuming vesting with a performance percentage equal to death or permanent disability.100% and a pro-rata fraction equal to one-fourth. All other equity awards held by the NEOs would be forfeited on termination. The value of the equity awards for the table above and the following tables was

calculated using a stock price per share of $35.25,$49.19, which is equal to the closing price of one share on the last trading day of the year on December 30, 2016.

Subject to the signing of a release and compliance with the terms of the Employment Agreements, in the event of a termination of the executive’s employment either without cause or for good reason, the executive will be entitled to (i) “Severance Pay” equal to two (2) multiplied by the sum of his (a) base salary plus (b) an amount equal to the average of his most recent two annual bonuses (paid in equal installments on regular payment dates over two (2) years), (ii) a “Pro-Rata Bonus for Year of Termination” equal to the average of his most recent two annual bonuses multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which equals the number of days during the calendar year prior to the termination date and the denominator of which equals 365 (paid on the sixty-day anniversary of the termination date), and (iii) a “Health Care Continuation” lump sum cash payment equal to the applicable percentage of the monthly COBRA coverage in connection with his termination multiplied by eighteen months (with the applicable percentage equal to the percentage of the executive’s health care premium costs covered by the company as of the termination date) (paid on the sixty-day

Mr. Arora’s Employment Agreement does not have a term and upon termination without cause or for good reason, and subject to the signing of a release, Mr. Arora will be entitled to (i) “Severance Pay” equal to (a) twelve months of his base salary plus (b) the average of the annual cash bonus amounts paid in relation to the two years prior to the year in which termination occurs, and (ii) a “Health Care Continuation” payment equal to twelve months of the monthly COBRA premium cost applicable to Mr. Arora and his dependents (paid on the sixty-day anniversary of the termination date). The Health Care Continuation amounts were determined for each executive assumingusing a monthly COBRA premium amount equal to $1,921, which would equal the highest potential cost which could be less dependingbased on the actual elections made by the individual executive.

The severance amounts payable for a termination without cause or for good reason following a change in control would be the same for all NEOs as a termination without cause or for good reason described above. All outstanding unvested equity awards held by the NEOs would become vested for a termination without cause within twenty-four months following a change in control (but not all equity would become vested on a termination for good reason as that would only apply to certain equity awards as described in the previous table for a termination with good reason).

PAY RATIO DISCLOSURE

We are committed to providing a comprehensive total rewards program to attract, retain and reward highly qualified, diverse and productive employees. The total rewards program emphasizes alignment of employee efforts to support our corporate strategies. The components of the program include compensation, benefits, learning and development opportunities and recognition of employee performance. We strive to remain externally competitive in relevant labor markets while maintaining internal equity and rewarding performance. As of December 31, 2018, we had 3,920 employees, including employees in operations, research and development, engineering and systems, executive and corporate functions, sales and marketing and investment management and research. Of these 3,920 employees, 1,429 were located in the United States, 2,475 were located in India and 16 were located in other international locations.

TableFor purposes of Contents

this 2018 pay ratio disclosure, we used the same median employee that we identified in 2017 since we believe that there has been no change in our employee population or employee compensation arrangements in 2018 that would significantly impact our pay ratio disclosure. We identified the median employee by examining the base salary as of December 31, 2017 for all employees, excluding the CEO, who were employed by us on December 31, 2017. We included all employees, whether employed on a full-time, part-time or seasonal basis. For full-time employees hired in 2017, an annualized salary was used. However, compensation for part-time employees was not annualized. We did not make any other assumptions, adjustments or estimates with respect to base salaries other than converting all base salaries to US dollars on the determination date. After identifying the median employee, the median employee’s total annual compensation was calculated in accordance with the requirements of the Summary Compensation Table.

Based on the methodology described above, we estimated that the 2018 annual total compensation of our median employee, who was located in India, was $22,562. The 2018 annual total compensation of Mr. Bergman, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) was $4,200,366. As a result, we estimate the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to our median employee was 186 to 1.

The SEC's rules requiring pay ratio disclosure allow companies to exercise a significant amount of flexibility in making a determination as to who is the median employee and does not mandate that each public company use the same method. In addition, our compensation philosophy means fair pay based on a person's role in the company, a subjective determination of the market value of that person's job and that person's performance in that position. As a result, the annual total compensation of our median employee is unique to that person and is not a good indicator of the annual total compensation of any of our other employees and is not comparable to the annual total compensation of employees at other companies. Similarly, we would not expect that the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to our median employee to be a number that can be compared to the ratio determined by other companies in any meaningful fashion.

PROPOSAL NO. 2: ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION 
In accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, we are asking our shareholders to vote to approve, on an advisory (nonbinding) basis, the compensation of our NEOs as disclosed in this proxy statement.
Envestnet believes compensation should be transparent, understandable and effectively communicated, consistent with our risk profile and reflect good governance practices. Our executive compensation program is designed to attract and retain skilled executives and to be fiscally responsible to our shareholders. Envestnet offers an attractive compensation program and seeks to pay executives for company and individual performance, align the pay of executives with shareholders’ interests and long-term value creation and award executives for their achievement of goals set for that performance year or period. The Compensation Committee regularly reviews the compensation programs for our NEOs to ensure that they are achieving the desired goals it sets. Please read the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” discussion for additional details about our executive compensation programs, including information about the fiscal year 2018 compensation of our NEOs.
We believe that our executive compensation programs are structured in the best manner possible to support the Company and our business objectives. We are asking our shareholders to indicate their support for our NEO compensation as described on pages 22-40 of this proxy statement, which include the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section and the compensation tables and related narrative disclosure. This proposal, commonly known as a “say‑on‑pay” proposal, gives our shareholders the opportunity to express their views on our NEOs’ compensation. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our NEOs and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, we will ask our shareholders to vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:
“Resolved, that the shareholders approve the compensation of the NEOs, as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the compensation discussion and analysis, the compensation tables and related narrative discussion.”
The say‑on‑pay vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on the Company, the Compensation Committee or the Board. However, the Board and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of our shareholders and will review the voting results carefully.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.


AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee consists of four members of the Board. Each Audit Committee member is independent, within the meaning of the NYSE listing standards, of Envestnet and its management and has been determined by the Board to be financially literate, as contemplated by the NYSE listing standards. In addition, the Board has determined that Messrs. Smith, Chapin, Fox and JohnsonRoame are each audit committee financial experts within the meaning of the rules of the SEC.

The Audit Committee operates under a written charter approved by the Board, a copy of which is available on our website. As more fully described in the charter, the primary purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in its oversight of the integrity of our financial statements and financial reporting process, the system of internal controls, the audit process, the performance of our internal audit process and the performance, qualification and independence of our independent auditors, KPMG LLP (“KPMG”).

Our management prepares our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and is responsible for the financial reporting process that generates these statements. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed our audited financial statements with management. Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control. KPMG is responsible for auditing those financial statements and expressing an opinion as to their conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, and annually attesting to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee, on behalf of the Board, monitors and reviews these processes, acting in an oversight capacity relying on the information provided to it and on the representations made to it by our management, KPMG and other advisors.

The Audit Committee held sixseven meetings in 2016.2018. Audit Committee meetings are usually held in conjunction with the regularly scheduled meetings of the Board. At least quarterly, the Audit Committee met with management, KPMG (see “Proposal No. 4:3: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Auditors”), the Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Accounting Officer and the General Counsel to review, among other matters, the overall scope and plans for the independent audit, and the results of such audit; critical accounting estimates and policies; compliance with our conflict of interest and Code of Business Conduct and Ethics policies.

At least quarterly in 2016,2018, the Audit Committee met in executive session (i.e., without management present) with representatives of KPMG to discuss the results of their work.

In connection with its audit of our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016,2018, KPMG presented to and reviewed with the Audit Committee the matters required to be discussed by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 16. The Audit Committee has also discussed with KPMG their independence from Envestnet, including a review of audit and non‑audit fees, and has reviewed in that context the written disclosures and the letter required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence.

Based on the review and discussions referred to above, and in reliance on the information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Audit Committee by our management and KPMG, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the December 31, 20162018 audited consolidated financial statements be included in Envestnet’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K.

The foregoing report has been approved by all members of the Audit Committee.

PROPOSAL NO. 2: ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

In accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, we are asking our stockholders to vote to approve, on an advisory (nonbinding) basis, the compensation of our NEOs as disclosed in this proxy statement.

As described in detail under the heading “Executive Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” our executive compensation program is designed to attract, motivate, and retain talented executives who possess the skills required to formulate and drive our strategic direction and achieve annual and long‑term performance goals necessary to create stockholder value. The program seeks to align executive compensation with stockholder value on an annual and long‑term basis through a combination of base pay, annual incentives and long‑term incentives. The Compensation Committee continually reviews the compensation programs for our NEOs to ensure they achieve the desired goals of aligning our executive compensation structure with our stockholders’ interests and current market practices. Please read the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” discussion for additional details about our executive compensation programs, including information about the fiscal year 2016 compensation of our NEOs.

We believe that our executive compensation programs are structured in the best manner possible to support the Company and our business objectives. We are asking our stockholders to indicate their support for our NEO compensation as described on pages 23-37 of this proxy statement, which include the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section and the compensation tables and related narrative disclosure. This proposal, commonly known as a “say‑on‑pay” proposal, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our NEOs’ compensation. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our NEOs and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, we will ask our stockholders to vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

“Resolved, that the stockholders approve the compensation of the NEOs, as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the compensation discussion and analysis, the compensation tables and related narrative discussion.”

The say‑on‑pay vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on the Company, the Compensation Committee or the Board. However, the Board and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of our stockholders and will review the voting results carefully.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

PROPOSAL NO. 3: ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF THE ADVISORY VOTE ON COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Pursuant to Rule 14a-21 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we are required to submit to stockholders an advisory, non-binding vote asking them to indicate how frequently we should seek an advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules, such as Proposal No. 2 of this proxy statement. By voting on this Proposal No. 3, stockholders may indicate whether they would prefer an advisory vote on named executive officer compensation once every one, two, or three years.

The advisory vote by the stockholders on frequency is distinct from the advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs. This proposal deals with the issue of how frequently an advisory vote on compensation should be presented to our stockholders and, in this regard, we are soliciting your advice on the following resolution:

“Resolved that the compensation of our named executive officers be submitted to stockholders for an advisory vote:

1)

every year;

2)

every two years; or

3)

every three years.”

You may vote for one of these three alternatives or you may abstain from making a choice.

After careful consideration of the Proposal, the Board of Directors has determined that an advisory vote on executive compensation that occurs every year is the most appropriate alternative for the Company, and therefore the Board of Directors recommends that you vote for a one-year interval for the advisory vote on executive compensation.

In formulating its recommendation, the Board of Directors considered that submitting executive compensation on an annual basis gives stockholders a more meaningful voice on the Company’s executive compensation practices. The Board also considered the publicly expressed views of the institutional investor community, the practices of other companies and the Company’s current practice of having an annual vote.

The option of one year, two years or three years that receives the highest number of voices cast by stockholders will be the frequency for the advisory vote on executive compensation that has been selected by stockholders. Although the vote is non-binding the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors value the opinions of the stockholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when determining the frequency of the stockholder vote on executive compensation. However, because this vote is advisory and not binding on the Board of Directors in any way, the Board may decide that it is in the best interests of our stockholders and the Company to hold an advisory vote on executive compensation more or less frequently than the option approved by our stockholders.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR A FREQUENCY OF “ONE YEAR” FOR FUTURE NON-BINDING STOCKHOLDER VOTES ON COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

Note: Stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove the recommendation of the Board of Directors regarding Proposal No. 2.

Pre‑Approval Policy of Audit and Non‑Audit Services

The Audit Committee pre‑approved all of the services associated with the fees described above. The Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures for the pre‑approval of all audit and permissible non‑audit services provided by our independent auditor. The Audit Committee provides a general pre‑approval of certain audit and non‑audit services on an annual basis. The types of services that may be covered by a general pre‑approval include other audit services, audit‑related services and permissible non‑audit services. If a type of service is not covered by the Audit Committee’s general pre‑approval, the Audit Committee must review the service on a specific case by case basis and pre‑approve it if such service is to be provided by the independent auditor. Annual audit services, engagement terms and fees require specific pre‑approval of the Audit Committee. Any proposed services exceeding the pre‑approved fees also require specific pre‑approval by the Audit Committee. For both types of pre‑approval, the Audit Committee will consider whether such services are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence. The Audit Committee may delegate either type of pre‑approval authority to one or more of its members.

PROPOSAL NO. 5: APPROVAL OF THE 2010 LONG‑TERM INCENTIVE PLAN AS AMENDED THROUGH THE FOURTH AMENDMENT

A proposal will be presented at the 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “2017 Annual Meeting”) to approve the Envestnet, Inc. Long‑Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”) as amended through the fourth amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) (the LTIP as amended through the Fourth Amendment is referred to as the “Plan”).

Purpose

The Company believes in the merits of linking executives’ overall compensation opportunities to the enhancement of long‑term shareholder return and uses equity‑based compensation, such as options and other stock‑related awards, as key elements of its executives’ compensation packages. Because the Company believes it is important for the employees and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries to have an equity interest in the Company so that their interests are aligned with shareholder interests, and to be eligible to receive cash incentive awards, the Board of Directors has approved the Plan, and is recommending that shareholders approve the Plan. Approval of the Plan will help to achieve this goal and is necessary in order for the Company to continue making equity awards to employees and directors at competitive levels.

To achieve these objectives, the Plan provides for the grant of non‑qualified and incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, which we refer to as “SARs”, full value awards, which include awards such as restricted stock or restricted stock units, and cash incentive awards. The Company has proposed the approval of the Plan primarily to increase the number of shares of stock available at this time due to the lower number of shares of stock available for issuance. Additionally, to preserve a tax deduction for compensation and expenses, the Company is submitting the Plan for approval by the shareholders to satisfy the requirement that the performance goals be periodically approved by shareholders as a condition of satisfying the performance‑based compensation exception to the $1 million limits on US tax‑deductible compensation. If stockholders do not approve the Plan, it will continue in its current form (including the changes made by the First through Third Amendments as described below); however, the increase in reserved shares, made by the Fourth Amendment will not take effect.

Summary of the Fourth Amendment

On April 26, 2017, the Board adopted the Fourth Amendment to the LTIP, subject to stockholder approval. The Fourth Amendment will increase the number of common shares of the Company (“Stock”) reserved for delivery under the Plan by 3,525,000 shares of Stock.

Under New York Stock Exchange rules, stockholder approval is required for increases to the number of shares reserved under the Plan. Additionally, to enable the Company to grant performance‑based compensation that is exempt from the $1 million limit on tax deductible compensation, the performance goals of the Plan must be periodically resubmitted to and approved by the stockholders.

The Fourth Amendment will become effective upon stockholder approval. Stockholder approval of the Plan will constitute approval of the performance measurement criteria set forth in the plan for purposes of Section 162(m).

A summary of the material provisions of the Plan, including the changes being made by the Fourth Amendment, is set forth below, and a copy of the Plan is set forth in Exhibit A.

Background

The LTIP originally became effective on July 28, 2010 and will continue in effect until terminated by the Board; provided, however, that if the Plan is approved by stockholders at the 2017 Annual Meeting, no awards may be granted under the Plan on or after the ten‑year anniversary of the date of such approval. Any awards that are outstanding after termination of the Plan shall remain subject to the terms of the Plan.

42


In 2010, prior to the IPO, the Board and stockholders approved the LTIP. The LTIP was reapproved by the stockholders at the 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders for purposes of Section 162(m), but no changes to the Plan were made at that time. On March 18, 2015, the Board previously adopted the first amendment to the LTIP (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment added restrictions to the LTIP that are favorable to shareholders, including provisions that: (a) require a minimum vesting period for performance shares of at least one year; (b) prohibit the grant of the right to receive dividend or dividend equivalents with respect to full value awards subject to vesting based on the satisfaction of performance objectives prior to the date that such full value award (or applicable portion thereof) becomes vested and is settled; (c) prohibit the grant of the right to receive dividend equivalents for awards of options or stock appreciation rights; (d) remove liberal share counting language for purposes of counting shares of Stock as available for use under the LTIP for awards granted under the LTIP; and (e) to make certain other technical and clarifying changes. The Second Amendment was approved by the shareholders at the 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and (a) increased the number of shares of Stock reserved for delivery under the Plan by 2,700,000 shares of Stock, (b) added a provision which prohibited the surrender of underwater stock options or stock appreciation rights for a cash payment or for the grant of any other award under the Plan except as approved by the Company’s stock holders, (c) adjusted the individual limits on the number of shares of Stock which can be issued in settlement of certain types of awards, and (d) reapproved the Plan for purposes of Section 162(m). The Third Amendment was approved by the Board on April 26, 2017 and added provisions favorable to shareholders, including: (a) requiring a minimum vesting period for all awards (including awards to non-employee directors) of at least one year (provided that a small number of awards may be granted not subject to such minimum vesting requirements in an aggregate amount up to 5% of shares of Stock authorized to be issued pursuant to the Plan), (b) prohibiting the grant of the right to receive dividend or dividend equivalents with respect to all full value awards prior to the date that such full value award (or applicable portion thereof) becomes vested and is settled (i.e., bringing the provisions for full value awards with time-based vesting in line with those with performance-based vesting), (c) revising tax withholding language to reflect recently modified accounting rules, (d) providing that in the case of performance-based awards which vest upon a change of control, the Compensation Committee may determine satisfaction of the applicable performance goal either based on actual performance through the date of the change in control or based on assumed target performance, and (e) making certain other technical and clarifying changes.

Plan Description

Description of the Envestnet, Inc. 2010 Long‑Term Incentive Plan as Amended through the Fourth Amendment

Purpose. We established the LTIP to: (a) attract and retain key employees and other persons providing services to us and our related companies (as defined below); (b) motivate participants by means of appropriate incentives to achieve long‑range goals; (c) provide incentive compensation opportunities that are competitive with those of other similar corporations; and (d) further align participants’ interests with those of our stockholders through compensation that is based on our Stock, and thereby to promote our and our related companies’ long‑term financial interests, including the growth in value of our equity and enhancement of long‑term stockholder return.

Approval and Shares Reserved. The LTIP was adopted by our Board on June 22, 2010 and was approved by our stockholders prior to the IPO. The LTIP became effective as of the date of the initial public offering of Stock of the Company on July 28, 2010. The LTIP was reapproved again at the 2014 Annual Meeting for purposes of Section 162(m) and again at the 2015 Annual Meeting to approve the Second Amendment and for purposes of Section 162(m).

The shares with respect to which awards may be made under the Plan are shares of Stock currently authorized but unissued or, as permitted by applicable law, currently held or acquired by us as treasury shares, including shares purchased in the open market or in private transactions. At the discretion of the Compensation Committee, an award under the Plan may be settled in cash rather than shares of Stock.

The maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered under the Plan is equal to the sum of (a) 8,925,000 shares, plus (b) the number of shares of Stock that are subject to outstanding awards under Envestnet’s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan which are forfeited, expire or are cancelled after the IPO without delivery of the shares or which result in the forfeiture of the shares of Stock back to us to the extent that such shares would have been added back to the shares reserved under Envestnet’s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan. Shares of Stock with respect to an award under the Plan will be treated as delivered for purposes of the previous sentence, subject to the following: (i) any shares of Stock that are not

44


delivered to a participant or beneficiary because the award is forfeited or canceled, such shares are not deemed to have been delivered; and (ii) the total number of shares covered by an award will be treated as delivered for purposes of the previous sentence to the extent payments or benefits are delivered to the participant with respect to such shares (i.e., (A) if shares covered by an award are withheld or tendered to satisfy the applicable tax withholding obligation, the number of shares held back by the Company or tendered by the Participant to satisfy such withholding obligation shall be considered to have been delivered; (B) if the exercise price of any option granted under the Plan is satisfied by tendering shares of Stock to the Company (by either actual delivery or by attestation (including shares of Stock that would otherwise be distributable upon the exercise of the option)), the number of shares tendered to satisfy such exercise price shall be considered to have been delivered; and (C) if shares of Stock are withheld in settlement of the exercise of an SAR, the total number of shares with respect to which such SAR is exercised shall be deemed delivered). Shares of Stock that we issue in connection with awards that are assumed or substituted in connection with a merger, acquisition or other corporate transaction will not be counted against the number of shares of Stock that may be issued with respect to awards under the Plan.

The following additional limits apply to awards under the Plan: (a) no more than 8,925,000 shares of Stock may be subject to incentive stock options granted under the Plan; (b) the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be covered by stock options and stock appreciation rights granted to any one participant in any one calendar year may not exceed 500,000 shares of Stock; (c) with respect to Full Value Awards (as defined below) that are intended to be performance‑based compensation, the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered pursuant to any such award granted to any one participant during any calendar year, regardless of whether settlement of the award is to occur prior to, at the time of, or after the time of vesting, may not exceed 500,000 shares of Stock; (d) the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be covered by stock options and stock appreciation rights granted to any one participant who is a member of the Board, but who is not an employee of the Company or a related Company during any one calendar‑year period, may not exceed 25,000 shares, and the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be covered by Full Value Awards granted to any one participant who is a member of the Board, but who is not an employee of the Company or a related Company during any one calendar‑year period, may not exceed 25,000 shares; and (e) in the case of cash incentive awards (described below) that are intended to be performance‑based compensation, the maximum amount payable to any one participant with respect to any performance period of twelve months (prorated for performance periods of greater or lesser than 12 months) is $3,000,000. In the case of Full Value Awards and cash incentive awards that are intended to be performance‑based compensation, if the award is denominated in shares but an equivalent amount of cash is delivered (or vice versa), the foregoing limitations will be applied based on the methodology used by the Compensation Committee to convert shares of Stock to cash (or vice versa). If delivery of cash or shares of Stock is deferred until after the cash or shares of Stock are earned, any adjustment in the amount delivered to reflect actual or deemed investment experience after the cash or shares of Stock are earned will be disregarded.

In the event of a corporate transaction involving us, the Compensation Committee shall adjust awards when an equitable adjustment is required to preserve the benefits or potential benefits of awards. The Compensation Committee may adjust awards in other situations (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, split‑up, spin‑off, sale of assets or subsidiaries, combination or exchange of shares of Stock). Action by the Compensation Committee may include: (a) adjustment of the number and kind of shares which may be delivered under the Plan (including adjustments to the individual limitations described above); (b) adjustment of the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding awards; (c) adjustment of the exercise price of outstanding stock options and stock appreciation rights; and (d) any other adjustments that the Compensation Committee determines to be equitable, which may include, without limitation, (i) replacement of awards with other awards which the Compensation Committee determines have comparable value and which are based on stock of a Company resulting from the transaction and (ii) cancellation of the award in return for cash payment of the current value of the award, determined as though the award is fully vested at the time of payment, provided that in the case of a stock option or stock appreciation right, the amount of such payment may be the excess of the value of the shares of Stock subject to the stock option or stock appreciation right at the time of the transaction over the exercise price.

45


Administration. The authority to control and manage the operation and administration of the Plan is vested in the Compensation Committee. However, in the case of awards to non‑employee directors, such control and management is vested in the Board. The Board may, in its discretion, take any action under the Plan that would otherwise be the responsibility of the Compensation Committee. Subject to stock exchange rules and applicable law, the Compensation Committee may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities or powers under the Plan to persons selected by it.

Eligibility. All of our employees and directors, all employees and directors of our related companies and service providers to us and our related companies are eligible to receive awards under the Plan and thereby become participants, except that incentive stock options can be awarded only to our employees and employees of certain of our related companies. A company is a “related company” if it is one of our subsidiaries in which we own (directly or indirectly) a controlling interest and any other business venture that is designated by the Compensation Committee in which we have (directly or indirectly) a significant interest. The Compensation Committee selects who will receive awards, the types of awards to be granted and the applicable terms, conditions, performance criteria, restrictions and other provisions of such awards.

Types of Awards. The Plan provides for the grant of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, Full Value Awards, and cash incentive awards.

Stock Options. The Compensation Committee may grant incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of Stock, at an exercise price that is no less than the fair market value of a share of Stock on the date the stock option is granted. No dividend equivalents (current or deferred) with respect to any stock options will be granted under the Plan. Incentive stock options may only be granted to our employees and employees of certain related companies. Except for reductions approved by our stockholders or adjustment for business combinations, the exercise price of a stock option may not be decreased after the date of grant nor may a stock option be surrendered to us as consideration for the grant of a replacement stock option with a lower exercise price. Except as approved by our stockholders, stock options granted under the Plan may not be surrendered to the Company in consideration for a cash payment or grant of any other award if, at the time of such surrender, the exercise price of the option is greater than the then current fair market value of the share. Stock options will be exercisable in accordance with the terms established by the Compensation Committee provided that no stock option granted to an employee will be exercisable prior to the first anniversary of the grant date (subject to acceleration of exercisability and vesting, to the extent permitted by the Compensation Committee, in the event of the participant’s death, disability, involuntary termination, or in connection with a change in control (as defined in the Plan)). The full purchase price of each share of Stock purchased upon the exercise of any stock option must be paid at the time of exercise of the stock option (except if the exercise price is payable through the use of cash equivalents, the exercise price may be paid as soon as practicable after exercise). Subject to applicable law, the purchase price of a stock option may be payable in cash or cash equivalents, shares of Stock, including shares of Stock that would otherwise be distributable upon the exercise of the stock option (valued at fair market value as of the day of exercise), or a combination thereof. The Compensation Committee, in its discretion, may impose such conditions, restrictions, and contingencies on the shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of a stock option as the Compensation Committee determines to be desirable. Except as provided by the Compensation Committee at the time of grant, a stock option will expire on the earliest to occur of the following: (a) the ten‑year anniversary of the grant date; (b) the six‑month anniversary after the participant’s employment or service terminates for death or disability (as defined in the Plan); (c) the three‑month anniversary after the participant’s employment or service terminates other than for death, disability or cause (as defined in the Plan); or (d) the date the participant’s employment or service terminates for cause (as defined in the Plan). In no event will a stock option expire after the ten‑year anniversary of the grant date.

Stock Appreciation Rights. A stock appreciation right entitles the participant to receive the amount (in cash or shares of Stock) by which the fair market value of a specified number of shares of Stock on the exercise date exceeds an exercise price established by the Compensation Committee, which exercise price may not be less than the fair market value of the shares of Stock at the time the stock appreciation right is granted. The Compensation Committee may grant a stock appreciation right independent of or in tandem with any stock option grant. The exercise price of a tandem stock option and stock appreciation right will be the same and the exercise of one will cancel the other. No dividend equivalents (current or deferred) with respect to any stock appreciation rights will be granted under the Plan. Except for reductions approved by our stockholders or adjustment for business combinations, the exercise price of a stock appreciation right may not be decreased after the date of grant nor may a stock appreciation right be surrendered to us as consideration for the grant of a

46


replacement stock appreciation right with a lower exercise price. Except as approved by our stockholders, stock appreciation rights granted under the Plan may not be surrendered to the Company in consideration for a cash payment or grant of any other award if, at the time of such surrender, the exercise price of the stock appreciation right is greater than the then current fair market value of the share. Generally, a stock appreciation right will be exercisable in accordance with the terms established by the Compensation Committee provided that no stock appreciation right granted to an employee will be exercisable prior to the first anniversary of the grant date (subject to acceleration of exercisability and vesting, to the extent permitted by the Compensation Committee, in the event of the participant’s death, disability, involuntary termination or in connection with a change in control). The Compensation Committee, in its discretion, may impose such conditions, restrictions, and contingencies on shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of a stock appreciation right as the Compensation Committee determines to be desirable. The expiration date of a stock appreciation right is subject to the same provisions as a stock option, as discussed above.

Full Value Awards. A “Full Value Award” is the grant of one or more shares of Stock or a right to receive one or more shares of Stock in the future, subject to one or more of the following as determined by the Compensation Committee:

·

The Compensation Committee may grant Full Value Awards in consideration of a participant’s previously performed services or in return for the participant surrendering other compensation that may be due.

·

The Compensation Committee may grant Full Value Awards that are contingent on the achievement of performance or other objectives during a specified period.

·

The Compensation Committee may grant Full Value Awards subject to a risk of forfeiture or other restrictions that lapse upon the achievement of one or more goals relating to completion of service by the participant, or the achievement of performance or other objectives.

Any Full Value Awards will be subject to such other conditions, restrictions and contingencies as the Compensation Committee determines; provided, however that no dividend or dividend equivalents granted in relation to Full Value Awards will be settled prior to the date that such Full Value Award (or applicable portion thereof) becomes vested and is settled. If a Full Value Award is made to a participant and the participant’s right to vesting of this Full Value Award is conditioned on the completion of a specified period of service with us or our related companies, without achievement of performance measures (as described below) or other performance objectives being required as a condition of vesting, and without it being granted in lieu of other compensation, then the required period of service for full vesting will not be less than three years (subject, to the extent provided by the Compensation Committee, to prorated vesting over the course of such three‑year period (provided that no portion of such pro rated Full Value Award shall become vested prior to the first anniversary of the date on which it is granted) and to accelerated vesting in the event of the participant’s death, disability or involuntary termination or a change in control). If a Full Value Award is made to a participant and the participant’s right to vesting of this Full Value Award is conditioned on the achievement of performance measures (as described below) or other performance objectives, then the required performance period for determining the achievement of such performance targets or other performance objectives for vesting will be not less than one year (subject, to the extent provided by the Compensation Committee, to accelerated vesting in the event of the participant’s death, disability or involuntary termination or a change in control). If a non-employee director’s right to become vested in any Full Value Award is conditioned either on completion of a specified period of service or the achievement of performance targets or other performance objectives, then the required period of service or performance period for determining the achievement of such performance targets or other performance objectives for vesting will not be less than one year (subject, to the extent provided by the Compensation Committee, to accelerated vesting in the event of the participant’s death, disability or involuntary termination or a change in control).

Cash Incentive Awards. A “Cash Incentive Award” is the grant of a right to receive a payment of cash (or, in the discretion of the Compensation Committee, shares of Stock having an equivalent value to the cash otherwise payable) that is contingent on achievement of performance objectives over a period established by the Compensation Committee. The grant of Cash Incentive Awards may also be subject to such other conditions, restrictions and contingencies as determined by the Compensation Committee. If a Cash Incentive Award is made to a participant and the participant’s right to vesting of this Cash Incentive Award is conditioned on the completion of a specified period of service with us or our related companies, without achievement of performance measures (as described below) or other performance objectives being

47


required as a condition of vesting, and without it being granted in lieu of other compensation, then the required period of service for full vesting will not be less than three years (subject, to the extent provided by the Compensation Committee, to prorated vesting over the course of such three-year period and to accelerated vesting in the event of the participant’s death, disability or involuntary termination or a change in control). If a Cash Incentive Award is made to a participant and the participant’s right to vesting of this Cash Incentive Award is conditioned on the achievement of performance measures (as described below) or other performance objectives, then the required performance period for determining the achievement of such performance targets or other performance objectives for vesting will be not less than one year (subject, to the extent provided by the Compensation Committee, to accelerated vesting in the event of the participant’s death, disability or involuntary termination or a change in control). If a non-employee director’s right to become vested in any Full Value Award is conditioned either on completion of a specified period of service or the achievement of performance targets or other performance objectives, then the required period of service or performance period for determining the achievement of such performance targets or other performance objectives for vesting will not be less than one year (subject, to the extent provided by the Compensation Committee, to accelerated vesting in the event of the participant’s death, disability or involuntary termination or a change in control).

Minimum Vesting Exception. The Compensation Committee may grant awards that are not subject to the minimum vesting limitations with respect to options, stock appreciation rights, Full Value Awards or Cash Incentive Awards, provided that the aggregate number of shares of Stock subject to such awards may not exceed five percent (5%) of the limits on shares of Stock granted under the Plan.

Change in Control. In the event that (a) a participant’s employment or service, as applicable, is terminated by us, our successor or one of our related companies that is the participant’s employer for reasons other than cause (as defined in the Plan) within 24 months following a change in control (as defined in the Plan) or (b) the Plan is terminated by us or our successor following a change in control without provision for the continuation of outstanding awards under the Plan, all stock options, stock appreciation rights and related awards which have not otherwise expired will become immediately exercisable and all other awards will become fully vested provided that the extent to which any award becomes vested based on the satisfaction of applicable performance goals or targets on or after a change in control, the Compensation Committee may make such determination either based on the determination of the satisfaction of the applicable performance goal based on actual performance through the date of such change in control or based on assumed performance at the target level through the date of such change in control.

Performance Criteria. The Plan is intended to permit the grant of performance‑based compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, which generally limits the deduction that we may take for compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, and the next three most highly compensated NEOs (other than the Chief Financial Officer). Under Section 162(m), certain compensation, including compensation based on the attainment of performance goals, will not be subject to this limitation if certain requirements are met. The exercisability or payment of awards that are intended to qualify as performance‑based compensation may be based upon one or more of the following business criteria as established by the Compensation Committee: (i) earnings including operating income, earnings before or after taxes, earnings before or after interest, depreciation, amortization, or extraordinary or special items or book value per share (which may exclude nonrecurring items) or net earnings; (ii) pre‑tax income or after‑tax income; (iii) earnings per share (basic or diluted); (iv) operating profit; (v) revenue, revenue growth or rate of revenue growth; (vi) return on assets (gross or net), return on investment (including cash flow return on investment), return on capital (including return on total capital or return on invested capital), or return on equity; (vii) returns on sales or revenues; (viii) operating expenses; (ix) stock price appreciation; (x) cash flow (before or after dividends), free cash flow, cash flow return on investment (discounted or otherwise), net cash provided by operations, cash flow in excess of cost of capital or cash flow per share (before or after dividends); (xi) implementation or completion of critical projects or processes; (xii) economic value created; (xiii) cumulative earnings per share growth; (xiv) operating margin or profit margin; (xv) stock price or total stockholder return; (xvi) cost targets, reductions and savings, productivity and efficiencies; (xvii) strategic business criteria, consisting of one or more objectives based on meeting specified market penetration, geographic business expansion, customer satisfaction, employee satisfaction, human resources management, supervision of litigation, information technology, and goals relating to acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and similar transactions, and budget comparisons; (xviii) personal professional objectives, including any of the foregoing performance targets, the implementation of policies and plans, the negotiation of transactions, the development of long term business goals, formation of joint ventures, research or development collaborations, and the completion of other corporate transactions; (xix) funds from operations

(FFO) or funds available for distribution (FAD); (xx) economic value added (or an equivalent metric); (xxi) stock price performance; (xxii) improvement in or attainment of expense levels or working capital levels; (xxiii) adjusted EBITDA; (xxiv) adjusted operating income; (xxv) adjusted net income or (xxvi) any combination of, or a specified increase in, any of the foregoing. Where applicable, the performance targets may be expressed in terms of attaining a specified level of the particular criteria or the attainment of a percentage increase or decrease in the particular criteria, and may be applied to one or more of the Company, a related company, or a division or strategic business unit of the Company, or may be applied to the performance of the Company relative to a market index, a group of other companies or a combination thereof, all as determined by the Compensation Committee. The performance targets may include a threshold level of performance below which no payment will be made (or no vesting will occur), levels of performance at which specified payments will be made (or specified vesting will occur), and a maximum level of performance above which no additional payment will be made (or at which full vesting will occur). Each of the foregoing performance targets shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and shall be subject to certification by the Compensation Committee; provided that the Compensation Committee shall have the authority to exclude, impact of charges for restructurings, discontinued operations, extraordinary items and other unusual or non‑recurring events and the cumulative effects of tax or accounting principles and identified in financial statements, notes to financial statements, management’s discussion and analysis or other SEC filings.

Transferability. Awards under the Plan are not transferable except as designated by the participant by will or by laws of descent and distribution or, to the extent provided by the Compensation Committee, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order or to or for the benefit of the participant’s family (including, without limitation, to a trust or partnership for the benefit of a participant’s family).

Withholding. All awards and other payments under the Plan are subject to withholding of all applicable taxes. With the consent of the Compensation Committee, withholding obligations may be satisfied with previously‑owned shares of Stock or shares of Stock to which the Participant is otherwise entitled under the Plan. The amount withheld in the form of such shares may not exceed the maximum individual tax rate for the Participant in applicable jurisdictions for such Participant (based on the applicable rates of the relevant tax authorities (for example, federal, state and local)), including the Participant’s share of payroll or similar taxes, as provided in law, regulations, or the authority’s administrative practices, not to exceed the highest statutory rate in that jurisdiction, even if that rate exceeds the highest rate that may be applicable to the specific Participant.

Amendment and Termination. The Board may, at any time, amend or terminate the Plan, and the Board or the Compensation Committee may amend any award, provided that no amendment or termination may adversely affect the rights of any participant without the participant’s written consent. Adjustments to the 2010 Plan and awards on account of business transactions (as described above) are not subject to the foregoing prohibition. The provisions of the Plan that prohibit repricing of stock options and stock appreciation rights cannot be amended unless the amendment is approved by our stockholders. The Plan also permits the Board to amend the Plan and any awards that are subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (relating to nonqualified deferred compensation) as it deems necessary to conform to Section 409A.

United States Income Tax Considerations

The following is a brief description of the U.S. federal income tax treatment that will generally apply to awards under the Plan based on current U.S. income taxation with respect to participants who are subject to U.S. income tax.

Non Qualified Options

The grant of a non‑qualified option will not result in taxable income to the participant. Except as described below, the participant will realize ordinary income at the time of exercise in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares of stock acquired over the exercise price for those shares, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. Gains or losses realized by the participant upon disposition of such shares will be treated as capital gains and losses, with the basis in such shares equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise.

49


The exercise of a non‑qualified option through the delivery of previously acquired shares will generally be treated as a non‑taxable, like‑kind exchange as to the number of shares surrendered and the identical number of shares received under the option. That number of shares will take the same basis and, for capital gains purposes, the same holding period as the shares that are given up. The value of the shares received upon such an exchange that are in excess of the number given up will be includible as ordinary income to the participant at the time of the exercise. The excess shares will have a new holding period for capital gain purposes and a basis equal to the value of such shares of Stock determined at the time of exercise.

Neither the participant nor the transferee will realize taxable income at the time of a non arms’ length transfer of a non‑qualified option as a gift. Upon the subsequent exercise of the option by the transferee, the participant will realize ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares of Stock on the date of exercise over the option price. Upon a subsequent disposition of the shares of Stock by the transferee, the transferee will generally realize short‑term or long‑term capital gain or loss, with the basis for computing such gain or loss equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise. If a participant makes a gift of an option, and surrenders all dominion and control of the option, the gift should be complete for U.S. gift tax purposes at the time of transfer and should be valued at that time or, if later, at the time the option becomes vested. For gift and estate tax purposes, the gift of an option would generally cause the option and the shares of Stock acquired by exercise to be excluded from the participant’s estate. Special rules may apply if the participant makes a gift of an award to a charity or to a “living trust” under which the participant retains the right to revoke the trust or substantially alter its terms.

Incentive Stock Options

The grant of an incentive stock option will not result in taxable income to the participant. The exercise of an incentive stock option will not result in taxable income to the participant provided that the participant was, without a break in service, an employee of the Company or a subsidiary during the period beginning on the date of the grant of the option and ending on the date three months prior to the date of exercise or ending one year prior to the date of exercise if the participant is disabled, as that term is defined in the Code.

The excess of the fair market value of the shares of Stock at the time of the exercise of an incentive stock option over the exercise price is an adjustment that is included in the calculation of the participant’s alternative minimum taxable income for the tax year in which the incentive stock option is exercised. For purposes of determining the participant’s alternative minimum tax liability for the year of disposition of the shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the incentive stock option exercise, the participant will have a basis in those shares equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise.

If the participant does not sell or otherwise dispose of the Stock within two years from the date of the grant of the incentive stock option or within one year after receiving the transfer of such shares of Stock, then, upon disposition of such shares of stock, any amount realized in excess of the exercise price will be taxed to the participant as capital gain, and the Company will not be entitled to any deduction. A capital loss will be recognized to the extent that the amount realized is less than the exercise price.

If the foregoing holding period requirements are not met, the participant will generally realize ordinary income, and a corresponding deduction will be allowed to the Company, at the time of the disposition of the shares, in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the excess of the fair market value of the shares of Stock on the date of exercise over the exercise price, or (ii) the excess, if any, of the amount realized upon disposition of the shares over the exercise price. If the amount realized exceeds the value of the shares on the date of exercise, any additional amount will be capital gain. If the amount realized is less than the exercise price, the participant will recognize no income, and a capital loss will be recognized equal to the excess of the exercise price over the amount realized upon the disposition of the shares.

The exercise of an incentive stock option through the exchange of previously acquired shares of Stock will generally be treated in the same manner as such an exchange would be treated in connection with the exercise of a non‑qualified option; that is, as a non‑taxable, like‑kind exchange as to the number of shares given up and the identical number of shares received under the option. That number of shares will take the same basis and, for capital gain purposes, the same holding period as the shares that are given up. However, such holding period will not be credited for purposes of

50


the one‑year holding period required for the new shares to receive incentive stock option treatment. Shares received in excess of the number of shares given up will have a new holding period and will have a basis of zero or, if any cash was paid as part of the exercise price, the excess shares received will have a basis equal to the amount of the cash. If a disqualifying disposition, which is a disposition before the end of the applicable holding period, occurs with respect to any of the shares received from the exchange, it will be treated as a disqualifying disposition of the shares with the lowest basis.

If the exercise price of an incentive stock option is paid with shares of Stock acquired through a prior exercise of an incentive stock option, gain will be realized on the shares given up and will be taxed as ordinary income if those shares have not been held for the minimum incentive stock option holding period, which holding period is two years from the date of grant and one year from the date of transfer, but the exchange will not affect the tax treatment, as described in the immediately preceding paragraph, of the shares received.

Stock Appreciation Rights

The grant of an SAR will not result in taxable income to the participant. Upon exercise of an SAR, the amount of cash or the fair market value of shares of Stock received will be taxable to the participant as ordinary income, and a corresponding deduction will be allowed to the Company. Gains or losses realized by the participant upon disposition of such shares will be treated as capital gains and losses, with the basis in such shares equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise.

Full Value Awards

A participant who has been granted a full value award will not realize taxable income at the time of grant, and the Company will not be entitled to a deduction at that time, if the grant is subject to a risk of forfeiture or other restrictions that will lapse upon the achievement of other objectives, assuming that the restrictions constitute a “substantial risk of forfeiture” for U.S. income tax purposes. Upon the vesting of shares subject to an award, the holder will realize ordinary income in an amount equal to the then fair market value of those shares, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. Gains or losses realized by the participant upon disposition of such shares will be treated as capital gains and losses, with the basis in such shares equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of vesting. Dividends paid to the holder during the restriction period will also be compensation income to the participant and deductible as such by the Company.

Cash Incentive Awards

A participant will realize taxable income at the time the cash incentive award is distributed, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction.

Withholding of Taxes

Pursuant to the Plan, the Company may deduct, from any payment or distribution of shares under the Plan, the amount of any tax required by law to be withheld with respect to such payment, or may require the participant to pay such amount to the Company prior to, and as a condition of, making such payment or distribution. Subject to rules and limitations established by the Compensation Committee, a participant may elect to satisfy the withholding required, in whole or in part, either by having the Company withhold shares of Stock from any payment under the Plan or by the participant delivering shares of the Company to the Company. However, the number of such shares used to satisfy the withholding obligation with respect to the exercise of a stock option may not be more than the number required to satisfy the Company’s minimum statutory withholding obligation based on minimum statutory withholding rates for U.S. federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income. Any election must be made in writing on or before the date when the amount of taxes to be withheld is determined. The portion of the withholding that is satisfied with shares will be determined using the fair market value shares of shares of Stock on the date when the amount of taxes to be withheld is determined.

The use of shares of Stock to satisfy any withholding requirement will be treated, for U.S. income tax purposes, as a sale of such shares for an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date when the amount of taxes to be

51


withheld is determined. If previously‑owned shares of Stock of the Company are delivered by a participant to satisfy a withholding requirement, the disposition of such shares would result in the recognition of gain or loss by the participant for tax purposes, depending on whether the basis in the delivered shares is less than or greater than the fair market value of the shares at the time of disposition.

Change In Control

Any acceleration of the vesting or payment of awards under the Plan in the event of a change in control in the Company may cause part or all of the consideration involved to be treated as an “excess parachute payment” under the Code, which may subject the participant to a 20% excise tax and preclude deduction by a subsidiary.

Deferred Compensation.

Awards granted pursuant to the Plan are generally not intended to constitute “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code. If an award does constitute “deferred compensation,” it is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code. A violation of Section 409A of the Code may subject a participant to immediate taxation of an award plus a 20 percent excise tax and interest.

Tax Advice

The preceding discussion is based on U.S. tax laws and regulations presently in effect, which are subject to change, and the discussion does not purport to be a complete description of the federal income tax aspects of the Plan. A participant may also be subject to state and local taxes, or taxes in other jurisdictions, in connection with the grant of awards under the Plan. The Company suggests that participants consult with their individual tax advisors to determine the applicability of the tax rules to the awards granted to them in their personal circumstances.

APPENDIX A
DEFINITIONS AND RECONCILIATIONS OF GAAP AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to reporting results according to U.S. GAAP, we also disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures to enhance the understanding of our operating performance. Those measures include “adjusted EBITDA” and “adjusted net income per share”.
“Adjusted EBITDA” represents net income (loss) before deferred revenue fair value adjustment, interest income, interest expense, accretion on contingent consideration and purchase liability, income tax provision (benefit), depreciation and amortization, non‑cash compensation expense, restructuring charges and transaction costs, severance, fair market value adjustment on contingent consideration, litigation related expense, foreign currency and related hedging activity, other (income) loss, non-income tax expense adjustment, impairment of equity method investment, loss allocation from equity method investment and loss attributable to non‑controlling interest.
“Adjusted net income” represents net income (loss) before deferred revenue fair value adjustment, accretion on contingent consideration and purchase liability, non‑cash interest expense, non‑cash compensation expense, restructuring charges and transaction costs, severance, amortization of acquired intangibles, fair‑market value adjustment on contingent consideration, litigation related expense, foreign currency and related hedging activity, other (income) loss, non-income tax expense adjustment, impairment of equity method investment, loss allocation from equity method investment and loss attributable to non‑controlling interest. Reconciling items are presented gross of tax, and a normalized tax rate is applied to the total of all reconciling items to arrive at adjusted net income. The reconciling items, and resulting adjusted net income, are presented on a different basis than historically shown to eliminate the impact of quarterly volatility of the GAAP tax provision on the Company’s adjusted earnings figures.
“Adjusted net income per share” represents adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders divided by the diluted number of weighted‑average shares outstanding.

As measures of operating performance;

Exhibit A

ENVESTNET, INC.
2010 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

(as amended by the First, Second, Third and Fourth Amendment)

SECTION 1

GENERAL

1.1Purpose. Envestnet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has established the Plan to:

(a)

attract and retain key employees and other persons providing services to the Company and the Related Companies;

(b)

motivate Participants by means of appropriate incentives to achieve long-range goals;

(c)

provide incentive compensation opportunities that are competitive with those of other similar corporations; and

(d)

further align Participants’ interests with those of the Company’s stockholders through compensation that is based on the Company’s common stock,

and thereby to promote the long-term financial interest of the Company and the Related Companies,For planning purposes, including the growthpreparation of annual budgets;

To allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business;
To evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies; and
In communications with our Board of Directors concerning our financial performance.
Our Compensation Committee, Board of Directors and our management may also consider adjusted EBITDA, among other factors, when determining management’s incentive compensation.
We also present adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per share as supplemental performance measures because we believe that they provide our Board of Directors, management and investors with additional information to assess our performance.  Adjusted EBITDA provide comparisons from period to period by excluding potential differences caused by variations in the age and book depreciation of fixed assets affecting relative depreciation expense and amortization of internally developed software, amortization of acquired intangible assets, litigation‑related expense, foreign currency and related hedging activity, income tax provision (benefit), restructuring charges and transaction costs, accretion on contingent consideration, fair market value adjustments on contingent consideration, non-income tax expense, other (income) expense, severance, impairment of equity method investment, loss allocation from equity method investment, loss attributable to non‑controlling interest, and changes in interest expense and interest income that are influenced by capital structure decisions and capital market conditions. Our management also believes it is useful to exclude non‑cash stock‑based compensation expense from adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income because non‑cash equity grants made at a certain price and point in time do not necessarily reflect how our business is performing at any particular time.
We believe adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per share are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts use adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per share as supplemental measures to evaluate the Company’s equityoverall performance of companies, and enhancementwe anticipate that our investor and analyst presentations will include adjusted EBITDA and and adjusted net income per share.
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per share are not measurements of long-term stockholder return.

1.2Defined Terms. The meaning of capitalized terms used in the Plan are set forth in Section 7.

our financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to revenues, net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our profitability or liquidity.

1.3Participation. For purposes of the Plan, a “Participant” is any Eligible Individual to whom an Award is granted under the Plan. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee shall determine and designate, from time to time, from among the Eligible Individuals those persons who will be granted one or more Awards under the Plan and, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a Participant may be granted any Award permitted under the provisions of the Plan and more than one Award may be granted to a Participant. Except as otherwise agreed by the Company and the Participant, or except as otherwise provided in the Plan, an Award under the Plan shall not affect any previous Award under the Plan or an award under any other plan maintained by the Company or the Related Companies.


SECTION 2

OPTIONS

We understand that, although adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per share are frequently used by securities analysts and others in their evaluation of companies, these measures have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. In particular you should consider:

2.1Definitions.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per share do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

(a)

The grant of an “Option” under the Plan entitles the Participant to purchase shares of Stock at an Exercise Price fixed by the Committee at the time the Option is granted. Options granted under this Section 2 may be either Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Stock Options, as determined in the discretion of the Committee. Options granted to Participants who are not employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be Non-Qualified Stock Options. To the extent that an Option that is intended to constitute an Incentive Stock Option does not satisfy the requirements of section 422 of the Code, such Option shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per share do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

A-1

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per share do not reflect non‑cash components of employee compensation;

Although depreciation and amortization are non‑cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized often will have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;

(b)

A grant of a “stock appreciation right” or “SAR” entitles the Participant to receive, in cash or shares of Stock (as determined in accordance with the terms of the Plan) value equal to the excess of: (i) the Fair Market Value of a specified number of shares of Stock at the time of exercise; over (ii) the Exercise Price established by the Committee at the time of grant.

(c)

An Option may but need not be in tandem with an SAR, and an SAR may but need not be in tandem with an Option (in either case, regardless of whether the original award was granted under this Plan or another plan or arrangement.) If an Option is in tandem with an SAR, the exercise price of both the Option and SAR shall be the same, and the exercise of the Option or SAR with respect to a share of Stock shall cancel the corresponding tandem SAR or Option right with respect to such share. If an SAR is in tandem with an Option but is granted after the grant of the Option, or if an Option is in tandem with an SAR but is granted after the grant of the SAR, the later granted tandem Award shall have the same exercise price as the earlier granted Award, but in no event less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock at the time of such grant.

2.2Eligibility. The Committee shall designate the Participants to whom Options or SARs are to be granted under this Section 2 and shall determine the number of shares of Stock subject to each such Option or SAR and the other terms and conditions thereof, not inconsistent with the Plan. No dividend equivalents (current or deferred) with respect to any Option or SAR shall be granted under the Plan. 

2.3Exercise Price. The “Exercise Price” of an Option or SAR shall be established by the Committee at the time the Option or SAR is granted; provided, however, that in no event shall such price be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on such date (or, if greater, the par value of a share of Stock on such date).

2.4Exercise/Vesting. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, an Option or SAR granted under the Plan shall be exercisable in accordance with the following:

(a)

The terms and conditions relating to exercise and vesting of an Option or SAR shall be established by the Committee to the extent not inconsistent with the Plan, and may include, without limitation, conditions relating to completion of a specified period of service, achievement of performance standards prior to exercise or the achievement of Stock ownership objectives by the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to subsection 5.3(b), in no event shall an Option or SAR granted to any Participant become exercisable or vested prior to the first anniversary of the date on which it is granted (subject to acceleration of exercisability and vesting, to the extent permitted by the Committee, in the event of the Participant’s death, Disability, Change in Control or involuntary termination).

(b)

No Option or SAR may be exercised by a Participant after the Expiration Date applicable to that Option or SAR.

2.5Payment of Exercise Price. The payment of the Exercise Price of an Option granted under this Section 2 shall be subject to the following:

(a)

Subject to the following provisions of this subsection 2.5, the full Exercise Price of each share of Stock purchased upon the exercise of any Option shall be paid at the time of such exercise (except that, in the case of an exercise through the use of cash equivalents, payment may be made as soon as practicable after the exercise) and, as soon as practicable thereafter, a certificate representing the shares of Stock so purchased shall be delivered to the person entitled thereto.

(b)

Subject to applicable law, the Exercise Price shall be payable in cash or cash equivalents, by tendering, by actual delivery or by attestation, shares of Stock (including shares of Stock that would otherwise be distributable upon the exercise of the Option) valued at Fair Market Value as of the day of exercise or by a combination thereof, as approved by the Committee.

A-2


(c)

Subject to applicable law, the Committee may permit a Participant to elect to pay the Exercise Price upon the exercise of an Option by irrevocably authorizing a third party to sell shares of Stock (or a sufficient portion of the shares) acquired upon exercise of the Option and remit to the Company a sufficient portion of the sale proceeds to pay the entire Exercise Price and any tax withholding resulting from such exercise.

2.6Post-Exercise Limitations. The Committee, in its discretion, may impose such restrictions on shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option as it determines to be desirable, including, without limitation, restrictions relating to disposition of the shares and forfeiture restrictions based on service, performance, Stock ownership by the Participant and such other factors as the Committee determines to be appropriate.

2.7No Repricing. Except for either adjustments pursuant to subsection 4.3 (relating to the adjustment of shares), or reductions of the Exercise Price approved by the Company’s stockholders, the Exercise Price for any outstanding Option or SAR may not be decreased after the date of grant nor may an outstanding Option or SAR granted under the Plan be surrendered to the Company as consideration for the grant of a replacement Option or SAR with a lower exercise price. Except as approved by the Company’s stockholders, in no event shall any Option or SAR granted under the Plan be surrendered to the Company in consideration for a cash payment or the grant of any other Award if, at the time of such surrender, the exercise price of the Option or SAR is greater than the then current Fair Market Value of a share.  In addition, no repricing of an Option or SAR shall be permitted without the approval of the Company’s stockholders if such approval is required under the rules of any stock exchange on which Stock is listed.

2.8Tandem Grants of Options and SARs. An Option may but need not be in tandem with an SAR, and an SAR may but need not be in tandem with an Option (in either case, regardless of whether the original award was granted under this Plan or another plan or arrangement). If an Option is in tandem with an SAR, the exercise price of both the Option and SAR shall be the same, and the corresponding tandem SAR or Option shall cancel the corresponding tandem SAR or Option right with respect to such share.

2.9Expiration Date. The “Expiration Date” with respect to an Option or SAR means the date established as the Expiration Date by the Committee at the time of the grant; provided, however, that unless determined otherwise by the Committee at the time of grant, the Expiration Date with respect to any Option or SAR shall not be later than the earliest to occur of:

(a)

the ten-year anniversary of the date on which the Option or SAR is granted;

(b)

if the Participant’s Termination Date occurs by reason of death or Disability, the six-month year anniversary of such Termination Date;

(c)

if the Participant’s Termination Date occurs for reasons of Cause, such Termination Date; and

(d)

if the Participant’s Termination Date occurs for reasons other than death, Disability or Cause, the three-month anniversary of such Termination Date.

In no event shall the Expiration Date of an Option or SAR be later than the ten-year anniversary of the date on which the Option or SAR is granted. Any Option or SAR that is not vested on the Participant’s Termination Date shall be forfeited and shall not thereafter be exercisable.

SECTION 3

FULL VALUE AWARDS AND CASH INCENTIVE AWARDS

3.1Definitions.

(a)

A “Full Value Award” is a grant of one or more shares of Stock or a right to receive one or more shares of Stock in the future, with such grant subject to one or more of the following, as determined by the Committee:

(i)

The grant shall be in consideration of a Participant’s previously performed services, or surrender of other compensation that may be due.

(ii)

The grant shall be contingent on the achievement of performance or other objectives during a specified period.

(iii)

The grant shall be subject to a risk of forfeiture or other restrictions that will lapse upon the achievement of one or more goals relating to completion of service by the Participant or achievement of performance or other objectives.

(iv)

The grant of Full Value Awards may also be subject to such other conditions, restrictions and contingencies, as determined by the Committee, including provisions relating to dividend or dividend equivalent rights and deferred payment or settlement; provided, however, that no dividend or dividend equivalents granted in relation to Full Value Awards shall be settled prior to the date that such Full Value Award (or applicable portion thereof) becomes vested and is settled.

(b)

A Cash Incentive Award is the grant of a right to receive a payment of cash (or in the discretion of the Committee, shares of Stock having value equivalent to the cash otherwise payable) that is contingent on achievement of performance objectives over a specified period established by the Committee. The grant of Cash Incentive Awards may also be subject to such other conditions, restrictions and contingencies, as determined by the Committee, including provisions relating to deferred payment.

3.2Special Vesting Rules.  

(a)

Subject to subsection 5.3(b), if a Participant’s right to become vested in a Full Value Award (other than a Full Value Award held by an Outside Director) is conditioned on the completion of a specified period of service with the Company or the Related Companies, without achievement of performance targets or other performance objectives (whether or not related to performance measures) being required as a condition of vesting, and without it being granted in lieu of other compensation, then the required period of service for full vesting shall be not less than three years (subject, to the extent provided by the Committee, to pro rated vesting over the course of such three year period (provided that no portion of such pro rated Full Value Award shall become vested prior to the first anniversary of the date on which it is granted) and to acceleration of vesting in the event of the Participant���s death, Disability, Change in Control or involuntary termination). The foregoing requirements shall not apply to grants that are a form of payment of earned performance awards or other incentive compensation.

(b)

Subject to subsections 5.3(b), if a Participant’s right to become vested in a Full Value Award or Cash Incentive Award (other than a Full Value Award or Cash Incentive Award held by an Outside Director) is conditioned on the achievement of performance targets or other performance objectives (whether or not related to performance measures and whether or not such Full Value Award is designated as “Performance-Based Compensation”), then the required performance period for determining the achievement of such performance targets or other performance objectives for vesting shall be not less than one year (subject, to the extent provided by the Committee, to acceleration of

vesting in the event of the Participant’s death, Disability, Change in Control or involuntary termination).

(c)

Notwithstanding subsections 3.2(a) and (b), if an Outside Director’s right to become vested in any Full Value Award or Cash Incentive Award is conditioned either on completion of a specified period of service or the achievement of performance targets or other performance objectives, then the required period of service or performance period for determining the achievement of such performance targets or other performance objectives for vesting shall be not less than one year (subject, to the extent provided by the Committee, to acceleration of vesting in the event of the Participant’s death, Disability, Change in Control or involuntary termination).

3.3Performance-Based Compensation. The Committee may designate a Full Value Award or Cash Incentive Award granted to any Participant as “Performance-Based Compensation” within the meaning of section 162(m) of the Code and regulations thereunder. To the extent required by section 162(m) of the Code, any Full Value Award or Cash Incentive Award so designated shall be conditioned on the achievement of one or more performance targets as determined by the Committee and the following additional requirements shall apply:

(a)

The performance targets established for the performance period established by the Committee shall be objective (as that term is described in regulations under section 162(m) of the Code), and shall be established in writing by the Committee not later than 90 days after the beginning of the performance period (but in no event after 25% of the performance period has elapsed), and while the outcome as to the performance targets is substantially uncertain. The performance targets established by the Committee may be with respect to corporate performance, operating group or sub-group performance, individual company performance, other group or individual performance, or division performance, and shall be based on one or more of the Performance Criteria.

(b)

A Participant otherwise entitled to receive a Full Value Award or Cash Incentive Award for any performance period shall not receive a settlement or payment of the Award until the Committee has determined that the applicable performance target(s) have been attained. To the extent that the Committee exercises discretion in making the determination required by this subsection 3.3(b), such exercise of discretion may not result in an increase in the amount of the payment.

(c)

If a Participant’s employment terminates because of death or Disability, or if a Change in Control occurs prior to the Participant’s Termination Date, the Committee may provide that the Participant’s Full Value Award or Cash Incentive Award shall become vested without regard to whether the Full Value Award or Cash Incentive Award would be Performance-Based Compensation; provided, however, that the extent to which any such Full Value Award or Cash Incentive Award becomes vested based on the satisfaction of the applicable performance goals or targets on or after such Change in Control, the Committee may make such determination either based on the determination of the satisfaction of the applicable performance goal based on actual performance through the date of such Change in Control or based on assumed performance at the target level through the date of such Change in Control. 

Nothing in this Section 3 shall preclude the Committee from granting Full Value Awards or Cash Incentive Awards under the PlanDue to either net losses before income tax expense or the Committee,use of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards in 2018, 2017 and 2016, we had cash income tax payments, net of refunds, of $5,531, $3,261, and $1,114 in the Companyyears ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Income tax payments will be higher if we continue to generate taxable income and our existing net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state income taxes have been fully utilized or any Related Company from granting any Cash Incentive Awards outsidehave expired; and

Other companies in our industry may calculate adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per share differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.
Management compensates for the inherent limitations associated with using adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per share through disclosure of such limitations, presentation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per share to net income and net income per share, the Planmost directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Further, our management also reviews U.S. GAAP measures and evaluates individual measures that are not intendedincluded in some or all of our non‑U.S. GAAP financial measures, such as our level of capital expenditures and interest income, among other measures.

SECTION 4

OPERATION AND ADMINISTRATION

4.1Effective Date. The Plan became effective as of the date of the initial public offering of Stock of the Company on July 28, 2010 (the “Effective Date”).  The Plan has been amended by the First, Second and Third Amendment to the Plan.  The Fourth Amendment, which increases the shares of Stock reserved under the Plan and makes certain other revisions, is contingent on shareholder approval by the Company’s shareholders at the 2017 annual meeting.  To the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the applicable rules of any stock exchange, Awards which are to use shares of Stock reserved under the Plan that are contingent on the approval by the Company’s shareholders may be granted prior to that meeting contingent on such approval. The Plan shall be unlimited in duration and, in the event of Plan termination, shall remain in effect as long as any Awards under it are outstanding; provided, however, that no Awards may be granted under the Plan after the ten-year anniversary of July 13, 2017, which is the date on which the shareholders approved the Plan as amended by the Fourth Amendment to increase the reserved shares of Stock.

4.2Stock and Other Amounts Subject to the Plan. The shares of Stock for which Awards may be granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following:

(a)

The shares of Stock with respect to which Awards may be made under the Plan shall be shares currently authorized but unissued or currently held or subsequently acquired by the Company as treasury shares, including shares purchased in the open market or in private transactions.

(b)

Subject to the provisions of subsection 4.3, the number of shares of Stock which may be issued with respect to Awards under the Plan shall be equal to (i) 8,925,000 shares of Stock (which number includes all shares available for delivery under this clause (i) since the establishment of the Plan in 2010, determined in accordance with the terms of the Plan); and (ii) any shares of Stock that are represented by awards granted under the Envestnet Asset Management Group, Inc. 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Prior Plan”) that are forfeited, expire or are canceled after the Effective Date without delivery of shares of Stock or which result in the forfeiture of the shares of Stock back to the Company to the extent that such shares would have been added back to the reserve under the terms of the applicable Prior Plan. Shares of Stock issued by the Company in connection with awards that are assumed or substituted in connection with a merger, acquisition or other corporate transaction shall not be counted against the number of shares of Stock that may be issued with respect to Awards under the Plan.

(c)

Shares of Stock with respect to an Award will be treated as delivered for purposes of the determination under paragraph (b) above subject to the following:

(i)

To the extent any shares of Stock covered by an Award are not delivered to a Participant or beneficiary because the Award is forfeited or canceled, such shares shall not be deemed to have been delivered for purposes of the determination under paragraph (b) above.

(ii)

Subject to the provisions of paragraph (i) above, the total number of shares covered by an Award will be treated as delivered for purposes of paragraph (b) above to the extent payments or benefits are delivered to the Participant with respect to such shares.  Accordingly (A) if shares covered by an Award are withheld or tendered to satisfy the applicable tax withholding obligation, the number of shares held back by the Company or tendered by the Participant to satisfy such withholding obligation shall be considered to have been delivered; (B) if the exercise price of any Option granted under the Plan is satisfied by tendering shares of Stock to the Company (by either actual delivery or by attestation (including shares of Stock that would otherwise be distributable upon the exercise of the Option)), the number of shares tendered to satisfy such exercise price shall be considered to have been delivered; and (C) if shares of Stock are withheld in settlement of the exercise of an SAR, the total number of shares with respect to which such SAR is exercised shall be deemed delivered.

A-6


(d)

Except as expressly provided by the terms of this Plan, the issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, for cash or property or for labor or services, either upon direct sale, upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into such shares or other securities, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof, shall be made with respect to Awards then outstanding hereunder.

(e)

To the extent provided by the Committee, any Award may be settled in cash rather than in shares.

(f)

Subject to the following provisions of this subsection 4.2, the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered to Participants and their Beneficiaries with respect to Incentive Stock Options under the Plan shall be 8,925,000; provided, however, that to the extent that shares not delivered must be counted against this limit as a condition of satisfying the rules applicable to Incentive Stock Options, such rules shall apply to the limit on Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan.

(g)

The maximum number of shares that may be covered by Awards granted to any one Participant during any one calendar-year period pursuant to Section 2 (relating to Options and SARs) shall be 500,000 shares. For purposes of this subsection 4.2(g), if an Option is in tandem with an SAR, such that the exercise of the Option or SAR with respect to a share of Stock cancels the tandem SAR or Option right, respectively, with respect to such share, the tandem Option and SAR rights with respect to each share of Stock shall be counted as covering but one share of Stock for purposes of applying the limitations of this subsection 4.2(g).

(h)

The maximum number of shares that may be covered by Awards granted to any one Participant who is a member of the Board but who is not an employee of the Company or a Related Company during any one calendar-year period pursuant to Section 2 (relating to Options and SARs) shall be 25,000 shares.  The maximum number of shares that may be covered by Full Value Awards granted to any one Participant who is a member of the Board but who is not an employee of the Company or a Related Company during any one calendar-year period shall be 25,000 shares. 

(i)

For Full Value Awards that are intended to be Performance-Based Compensation, no more than 500,000 shares of Stock may be delivered pursuant to such Awards granted to any one Participant during any one-calendar-year period (regardless of whether settlement of the Award is to occur prior to, at the time of, or after the time of vesting); provided that Awards described in this 4.2(i) that are intended to be Performance-Based Compensation shall be subject to the following:

(i)

If the Awards are denominated in shares of Stock but an equivalent amount of cash is delivered in lieu of delivery of shares of Stock, the foregoing limit shall be applied based on the methodology used by the Committee to convert the number of shares of Stock into cash.

(ii)

If delivery of shares of Stock or cash is deferred until after shares of Stock have been earned, any adjustment in the amount delivered to reflect actual or deemed investment experience after the date the shares are earned shall be disregarded.

(j)

For Cash Incentive Value Awards that are intended to be Performance-Based Compensation, the maximum amount payable to any Participant with respect to any twelve month performance period shall equal $3,000,000 (pro rated for performance periods that are greater or lesser than twelve months); provided that Awards described in this subsection 4.2(j) that are intended to be Performance-Based Compensation, shall be subject to the following:

(i)

If the Awards are denominated in cash but an equivalent amount of shares of Stock is delivered in lieu of delivery of cash, the foregoing limit shall be applied to the cash based on the methodology used by the Committee to convert the cash into shares of Stock.

A-7


(ii)

If delivery of shares of Stock or cash is deferred until after cash has been earned, any adjustment in the amount delivered to reflect actual or deemed investment experience after the date the cash is earned shall be disregarded.

4.3Adjustments to Shares. In the event of a corporate transaction involving the Company (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, sale of assets or subsidiaries, combination or exchange of shares), the Committee shall, in the manner it determines equitable in its sole discretion, adjust Awards to reflect the transactions. Action by the Committee may include, in its sole discretion: (a) adjustment of the number and kind of shares which may be delivered under the Plan (including adjustments to the number and kind of shares that may be granted to an individual during any specified time as described in subsection 4.2); (b) adjustment of the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards; (c) adjustment of the Exercise Price of outstanding Options and SARs; and (d) any other adjustments that the Committee determines to be equitable (which may include, without limitation, (i) replacement of Awards with other Awards which the Committee determines have comparable value and which are based on stock of a company resulting from the transaction, and (ii) cancellation of the Award in return for cash payment of the current value of the Award, determined as though the Award is fully vested at the time of payment, provided that in the case of an Option or SAR, the amount of such payment may be the excess of value of the shares of Stock subject to the Option or SAR at the time of the transaction over the exercise price).

4.4Change in Control.  

(a)

In the event that (a) a Participant’s employment or service, as applicable, is terminated by the Company or the successor to the Company (or a Related Company which is his or her employer) for reasons other than Cause within 24 months following a Change in Control, or (b) the Plan is terminated by the Company or its successor following a Change in Control without provision for the continuation of outstanding Awards hereunder, all Options, SARs and related Awards which have not otherwise expired shall become immediately exercisable and all other Awards shall become fully vested.  If a Participant’s right to become vested in an Award following a Change in Control as described in the prior sentence is conditioned on the achievement of performance targets or other performance objectives (whether or not related to performance measures and whether or not such Award is designated as “Performance-Based Compensation”), the Committee may make such determination either based on the determination of the satisfaction of the applicable performance goal based on actual performance through the date of such Change in Control or based on assumed performance at the target level through the date of such Change in Control.

(b)

If, upon a Change in Control, awards in other shares or securities are substituted for outstanding Awards pursuant to subsection 4.3, and immediately following the Change in Control the Participant becomes employed (if the Participant was an employee immediately prior to the Change in Control) or a board member (if the Participant was an Outside Director immediately prior to the Change in Control) of the entity into which the Company merged, or the purchaser of substantially all of the assets of the Company, or a successor to such entity or purchaser, the Participant shall not be treated as having terminated employment or service for purposes of this subsection 4.4(b) until such time as the Participant terminates employment or service with the merged entity or purchaser (or successor), as applicable.

4.5Limit on Distribution. Distribution of shares of Stock or other amounts under the Plan shall be subject to the following:

(a)

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Company shall have no liability to deliver any shares of Stock under the Plan or make any other distribution of benefits under the Plan unless such delivery or distribution would comply with all applicable laws and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or similar entity.

A-8


(b)

In the case of a Participant who is subject to Section 16(a) and 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Committee may, at any time, add such conditions and limitations to any Award to such Participant, or any feature of any such Award, as the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable to comply with Section 16(a) or 16(b) and the rules and regulations thereunder or to obtain any exemption therefrom.

(c)

To the extent that the Plan provides for issuance of certificates to reflect the transfer of shares of Stock, the transfer of such shares of Stock may be effected on a non-certificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange.

4.6Liability for Cash Payments. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4, each Related Company shall be liable for payment of cash due under the Plan with respect to any Participant to the extent that such benefits are attributable to the service rendered for that Related Company by the Participant. Any disputes relating to liability of a Related Company for cash payments shall be resolved by the Committee.

4.7Withholding. All Awards and other payments under the Plan are subject to withholding of all applicable taxes, which withholding obligations may be satisfied, with the consent of the Committee, through the surrender of shares of Stock which the Participant already owns or to which a Participant is otherwise entitled under the Plan; provided, however, that the amount withheld in the form of previously-owned shares of Stock that have been held by the Participant or shares of Stock to which the Participant is entitled under the Plan may not exceed the maximum individual tax rate for the Participant in applicable jurisdictions for such Participant (based on the applicable rates of the relevant tax authorities (for example, federal, state and local), including the Participant’s share of payroll or similar taxes, as provided in tax law, regulations, or the authority’s administrative practices, not to exceed the highest statutory rate in that jurisdiction, even if that rate exceeds the highest rate that may be applicable to the specific Participant. 

4.8Transferability. Awards under the Plan are not transferable except as designated by the Participant by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or, to the extent provided by the Committee, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order (within the meaning of the Code and applicable rules thereunder). To the extent that the Participant who receives an Award under the Plan has the right to exercise such Award, the Award may be exercised during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 4.8, the Committee may permit Awards under the Plan to be transferred to or for the benefit of the Participant’s family (including, without limitation, to a trust or partnership for the benefit of a Participant’s family), subject to such procedures as the Committee may establish. In no event shall an Incentive Stock Option be transferable to the extent that such transferability would violate the requirements applicable to such option under section 422 of the Code.

4.9Notices. Any notice or document required to be filed with the Committee under the Plan will be properly filed if delivered or mailed by registered mail, postage prepaid, to the Committee, in care of the Company or the Related Company, as applicable, at its principal executive offices. The Committee may, by advance written notice to affected persons, revise such notice procedure from time to time. Any notice required under the Plan (other than a notice of election) may be waived by the person entitled to notice.

4.10Form and Time of Elections. Unless otherwise specified herein, each election required or permitted to be made by any Participant or other person entitled to benefits under the Plan, and any permitted modification or revocation thereof, shall be in writing filed with the applicable Committee at such times, in such form, and subject to such restrictions and limitations, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall require.

4.11Agreement With the Company or Related Company. At the time of an Award to a Participant under the Plan, the Committee may require a Participant to enter into an agreement with the Company or the Related Company, as applicable (the “Agreement”), in a form specified by the Committee, agreeing to the terms and conditions of the Plan and to such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the Plan, as the Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe.

A-9


4.12Limitation of Implied Rights.

(a)

Neither a Participant nor any other person shall, by reason of the Plan, acquire any right in or title to any assets, funds or property of the Company or any Related Company whatsoever, including, without limitation, any specific funds, assets, or other property which the Company or any Related Company, in its sole discretion, may set aside in anticipation of a liability under the Plan. A Participant shall have only a contractual right to the amounts, if any, payable under the Plan, unsecured by any assets of the Company and any Related Company. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a guarantee by the Company or any Related Company that the assets of such companies shall be sufficient to pay any benefits to any person.

(b)

The Plan does not constitute a contract of employment or continued service, and selection as a Participant will not give any employee the right to be retained in the employ or service of the Company or any Related Company, nor any right or claim to any benefit under the Plan, unless such right or claim has specifically accrued under the terms of the Plan. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, no Award under the Plan shall confer upon the holder thereof any right as a stockholder of the Company prior to the date on which he fulfills all service requirements and other conditions for receipt of such rights and shares of Stock are registered in his name.

4.13Evidence. Evidence required of anyone under the Plan may be by certificate, affidavit, document or other information which the person acting on it considers pertinent and reliable, and signed, made or presented by the proper party or parties.

4.14Action by the Company or Related Company. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Company or any Related Company shall be by resolution of its board of directors, as applicable, or by action of one or more members of the board (including a committee of the board) who are duly authorized to act for the board or (except to the extent prohibited by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange) by a duly authorized officer of the Company.

4.15Gender and Number. Where the context admits, words in any gender shall include any other gender, words in the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular.

(a)

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee will have the authority and discretion to select individuals who shall be Eligible Individuals and who, therefore are eligible to receive Awards under the Plan. The Committee shall have the authority to determine the time or times of receipt, to determine the types of Awards and the number of shares of Stock covered by the Awards, to establish the terms, conditions, performance targets, restrictions, and other provisions of such Awards, to cancel or suspend Awards, and to accelerate the exercisability or vesting of any Award under circumstances designated by it. In making such Award determinations, the Committee may take into account the nature of services rendered by the respective employee, the individual’s present and potential contribution to the Company’s or a Related Company’s success and such other factors as the Committee deems relevant.

(b)

Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections 2.4(a), 3.2(a) and 3.2(b) of the Plan, the Committee may grant Awards that are not subject to the minimum vesting limitations of subsection 2.4(a) (with respect to Options and SARs) and of subsections 3.2(a) and 3.2(b) (with respect to Full Value Awards); provided, however, that the aggregate number of shares of Stock subject to Options, SARs and Full Value Awards granted pursuant to the Plan that are not subject to the minimum vesting limitations of subsections 2.4(a), 3.2(a) and 3.2(b) (excluding any such Awards to the extent that they have been forfeited or cancelled) may not exceed 5% of the limit imposed by subsection 4.2(b) (relating to the limit on shares of Stock granted under the Plan).

(c)

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee will have the authority and discretion to determine the extent to which Awards under the Plan will be structured to conform to the requirements applicable to Performance-Based Compensation, and to take such action, establish such procedures, and impose such restrictions at the time such Awards are granted as the Committee determines to be necessary or appropriate to conform to such requirements.

(d)

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee will have the authority and discretion to conclusively interpret the Plan, to establish, amend and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan, to determine the terms and provisions of any agreements made pursuant to the Plan and to make all other determinations that may be necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

(e)

Any interpretation of the Plan by the Committee and any decision made by it under the Plan is final and binding on all persons.

(f)

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, where the Committee is authorized to make a determination with respect to any Award, such determination shall be made at the time the Award is made, except that the Committee may reserve the authority to have such determination made by the Committee in the future (but only if such reservation is made at the time the Award is granted is expressly stated in the Agreement reflecting the Award and is permitted by applicable law).

A-11


Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is the intention of the Company that, to the extent that any provisions of this Plan or any Awards granted hereunder are subject to section 409A of the Code, the Plan and the Awards comply with the requirements of section 409A of the Code and that the Plan and Awards be administered in accordance with such requirements and the Committee shall have the authority to amend any outstanding Awards to conform to the requirements of section 409A.

5.4Delegation by Committee. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or NASDAQ (if appropriate), the Committee may allocate all or any portion of its responsibilities and powers to any one or more of its members and may delegate all or any part of its responsibilities and powers to any person or persons selected by it. Any such allocation or delegation may be revoked by the Committee at any time.

5.5Information to be Furnished to Committee. The Company and the Related Companies shall furnish the Committee such data and information as may be required for it to discharge its duties. The records of the Company and the Related Companies as to an employee’s or Participant’s employment or provision of services, termination of employment or cessation of the provision of services, leave of absence, reemployment and compensation shall be conclusive on all persons unless determined to be incorrect. Participants and other persons entitled to benefits under the Plan must furnish the Committee such evidence, data or information as the Committee consider desirable to carry out the terms of the Plan.

5.6Liability and Indemnification of Committee. No member or authorized delegate of the Committee shall be liable to any person for any action taken or omitted in connection with the administration of the Plan unless attributable to his own fraud or willful misconduct; nor shall the Company or any Related Company be liable to any person for any such action unless attributable to fraud or willful misconduct on the part of a director or employee of the Company or Related Company. The Committee, the individual members thereof, and persons acting as the authorized delegates of the Committee under the Plan, shall be indemnified by the Company against any and all liabilities, losses, costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) of whatsoever kind and nature which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Committee or its members or authorized delegates by reason of the performance of a Committee function if the Committee or its members or authorized delegates did not act dishonestly or in willful violation of the law or regulation under which such liability, loss, cost or expense arises. This indemnification shall not duplicate but may supplement any coverage available under any applicable insurance.

SECTION 6

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

The Board may, at any time, amend or terminate the Plan, and the Board or the Committee may amend any Award Agreement, provided that no amendment or termination may, in the absence of written consent to the change by the affected Participant (or, if the Participant is not then living, the affected Beneficiary), adversely affect the rights of any Participant or Beneficiary under any Award granted under the Plan prior to the date such amendment is adopted by the Board (or the Committee, if applicable); and further provided that adjustments pursuant to subsection 4.3 shall not be subject to the foregoing limitations of this Section 6; and further provided that the provisions of subsection 2.7 (relating to Option and SAR repricing) cannot be amended unless the amendment is approved by the Company’s stockholders. It is the intention of the Company that, to the extent that any provisions of this Plan or any Awards granted hereunder are subject to section 409A of the Code, the Plan and the Awards comply with the requirements of section 409A of the Code and that the Board shall have the authority to amend the Plan as it deems necessary to conform to section 409A.
