The aggregate market value of voting stock held by non-affiliates of the Registrant on August 7, 2013, based on the closing price of $9.00 for shares of the Registrant’s common stock as reported by the New York Stock Exchange, was approximately $129,878,154. The Registrant has elected to use August 7, 2013 as the calculation date, which was the initial trading date of the Registrant’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange, because on June 30, 2013 (the last business day of the Registrant’s second fiscal quarter), the Registrant was a privately-held company. Shares of common stock held by each executive officer, director, and their affiliated holders have been excluded from that calculation because such persons may be deemed to be affiliates of the Company. This determination of affiliate status is not necessarily a conclusive determination for other purposes.
As of March 15, 2014, there were 32,321,236 shares of the Registrant’s common stock outstanding.

ITEM 11. | EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION |
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Overview
This section provides an overview of the material components of our executive compensation program for our Chief Executive Officer and each of our two other most highly compensated executives during 2013. We refer to these individuals as our "named executive officers" or "NEOs." The compensation provided to our NEOs for 2013 is set forth in detail in the Summary Compensation Table and other tables that follow this section, as well as the accompanying footnotes and narratives relating to those tables. This section also discusses our executive compensation philosophy, objectives and design, and the compensation decisions for our NEOs in 2013.
Our NEOs for 2013 were:
| • | Jayant Kadambi, Chairman of the Board of Directors, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer; |
| • | Ayyappan Sankaran, Co-Founder and Executive Vice President, Engineering and Chief Technology Officer; and |
| • | Scot McLernon, Executive Vice President, Sales and Chief Revenue Officer. |
Executive Compensation Philosophy, Objectives and Design
Compensation Philosophy
We operate in a highly competitive and rapidly evolving market, and we expect competition to continue to increase. Our ability to compete and succeed in this environment is directly correlated to our ability to recruit, incentivize and retain talented individuals in the areas of development, services, sales, marketing, and support functions such as finance, information technology, legal and human resources. The market for skilled individuals in any of these areas is very competitive. Our compensation philosophy is designed to establish and maintain a compensation program that attracts, retains and rewards talented individuals who possess the skills necessary to create long-term value for our stockholders, expand our business and assist in the achievement of our strategic objectives.
Prior to the formal establishment of our Compensation Committee, the Board was responsible for the compensation policies. In 2013, our Board reviewed and assessed our general compensation philosophy, which is intended to align with our core values, yearly performance, and our stockholder interests, as well as to effectively balance our short- and long-term objectives. When determining the competitiveness of our pay practices, we look at the entire pay and benefit package, taking into account total compensation. Our total compensation package is designed to be competitive in the geographical locations where we do business, focused on results, and to be fair and flexible. The Board recognizes the importance of providing fair rewards for employee contributions. We seek to provide total targeted direct compensation (salary, bonus and equity) that are competitive with our peer group, and to provide parity and consistency within functions. We also believe in making tough decisions in order to adhere to budgets, ensuring transparency and promoting understanding of our compensation philosophy and practices.
The Board, and now our Compensation Committee, retains flexibility to review our compensation structure periodically as needed to focus on different business objectives, and reviews our compensation programs at least annually.
Objectives for our Executive Compensation Programs
Consistent with our compensation philosophy, the primary goals of our executive compensation programs are to:
| • | provide competitive compensation to recruit, retain and engage top talent; |
| • | align executive compensation to company performance and our stockholders’ interests; and |
| • | balance short- and long-term objectives. |
Elements of Our Executive Compensation Program
The key elements of our compensation package for NEOs are base salary, bonuses, equity-based awards, and our benefits programs. Each NEO’s compensation has been designed to provide a combination of compensation that is tied to achievement of our short- and long-term objectives.
Base Salary
We offer base salaries that are intended to provide a level of stable fixed compensation to NEOs for performance of day-to-day services. Base salaries of NEOs other than our co-founders are established as the result of arm’s-length negotiation with the individual at the time of hiring. Base salaries for our executive officers are generally reviewed annually to determine whether an adjustment is warranted or required. In 2013, the Board reviewed the base salaries of our executive officers taking into consideration data from a compensation analysis performed by our compensation consultant, Compensia. The base salaries paid to our NEOs for 2013 are set forth in the Summary Compensation Table below.
Bonuses
We provide our executive officers, including the NEOs, with the opportunity to earn cash bonuses to encourage the achievement of corporate and individual objectives and to reward those individuals who significantly impact our corporate results. The Compensation Committee determines and approves cash bonus decisions for our executive officers.
The 2013 discretionary executive bonuses were based primarily on the attainment of three performance measures, revenue, adjusted EBITDA and gross margin, subject to an individual performance factor as determined by our Chief Executive Officer (except with respect to his compensation). The Compensation Committee considered these metrics the best indicators of our successful execution of our annual operating plan by our executive officers in 2013. Each NEO had a cash bonus target: Mr. Kadambi—$210,000; Mr. Sankaran $135,000 and Mr. McLernon—$500,000. The bonus target for Mr. McLernon was based on pre-determined sales objectives.
Equity-Based Awards
We use equity awards to motivate and reward our executive officers, including our NEOs, for long-term corporate performance based on the value of our common stock and, thereby, to align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders. Prior to August 2013, these equity awards had been granted solely in the form of options to purchase shares of our common stock. We believed that stock options, when granted with exercise prices equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, provide an appropriate long-term incentive for our executive officers, because the stock options reward them only to the extent that our stock price grows and stockholders realize value following their grant date. Following our IPO, we now consider granting restricted stock units ("RSUs") in order to provide additional retention for our executives. We have adopted a program in which all executives are eligible for annual equity grants.
Historically, the size and form of the initial equity awards for our executive officers were established through arm’s-length negotiation at the time the individual was hired. In making these awards, the Board considered, among other things, the prospective role and responsibility of the individual executive, competitive factors, the cash compensation to be received by the executive officer, and the need to create a meaningful opportunity for reward predicated on the creation of long-term stockholder value.
Benefits Programs
Our employee benefit programs, including our health, dental, vision, life insurance and disability programs, are designed to provide a competitive level of benefits to our employees generally, including our NEOs and their families. We adjust our employee benefit programs as needed based upon regular monitoring of applicable laws and practices and the competitive market. Our NEOs are entitled to participate in the same employee benefit plans, and on the same terms and conditions, as all other United States full-time employees.

Equity Compensation Plans
2004 Stock Plan
The Company’s 2004 Plan authorized the Company to grant restricted stock awards or stock options to employees, directors and consultants at prices not less than the fair market value at date of grant for incentive stock options and not less than 85% of fair market value for non-statutory options. Option vesting schedules were determined by the Board at the time of issuance and they generally vest at 25% on the first anniversary of the grant (or the employment or service commencement date) and monthly over the next 36 months. Options generally expire ten years from the date of grant unless the optionee is a 10% stockholder, in which case the term will be five years from the date of grant. Unvested options exercised are subject to the Company’s repurchase right. Upon the effective date of the registration statement related to the Company’s IPO, the 2004 Plan was amended to cease the grant of any additional awards thereunder, although the Company will continue to issue common stock upon the exercise of stock options previously granted under the 2004 Plan.
2013 Equity Incentive Plan
In July 2013, the Company adopted the 2013 Plan which became effective on August 6, 2013. The 2013 Plan serves as the successor equity compensation plan to the 2004 Plan. The 2013 Plan will terminate on July 23, 2023. The 2013 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights, performance stock awards, restricted stock units and stock bonus awards to employees, directors and consultants. Stock options granted must be at prices not less than 100% of the fair market value at date of grant. Option vesting schedules are determined by the Compensation Committee or the Equity Award Committee at the time of issuance and, for initial grants, they generally vest at 25% on the first anniversary of the grant (or the employment or service commencement date) and monthly over the next 36 months. Options generally expire ten years from the date of grant unless the optionee is a 10% stockholder, in which case the term will be five years from the date of grant. Unvested options exercised are subject to the Company’s repurchase right. RSU vesting schedules are determined by the Compensation Committee or the Equity Award Committee at the time of issuance. Initial grants of RSUs generally vest in equal annual installments over four years.
2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In July 2013, the Company adopted the 2013 Purchase Plan that became effective on August 6, 2013. The 2013 Purchase Plan is designed to enable eligible employees to periodically purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a discount through payroll deductions of up to 15% of their eligible compensation, subject to any plan limitations. At the end of each offering period, employees are able to purchase shares at 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the first trading day of the offering period or on the last day of the offering period. Purchases are accomplished through participation in discrete offering periods. The 2013 Purchase Plan is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code.
POST-EMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION
Pension Benefits
Our NEOs did not participate in, or otherwise receive any benefits under, any pension or retirement plan sponsored by us during 2013.
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation
Our NEOs did not earn any nonqualified deferred compensation benefits from us during 2013.
Potential Payments upon Termination and Change in Control
In July 2013, we adopted a severance policy applicable to our executive officers. Under the policy, if Mr. Kadambi or Mr. Sankaran is terminated for any reason other than cause, death or disability and apart from a change in control, he would be entitled to receive severance benefits of an amount equal to (i) 75% of his then-current annual base salary and (ii) an estimate of the aggregate monthly benefits premium under COBRA for twelve months. In addition, 25% of the shares underlying all unvested equity awards held by each of Mr. Kadambi or Mr. Sankaran immediately prior to such termination will become vested and exercisable in full for a period of one year after the date of termination. If Mr. Kadambi or Mr. Sankaran is terminated for any reason other than cause, death or disability within three months before or twelve months after a change in control, he would be entitled to receive (i) 100% of his then-current annual base salary and (ii) an estimate of the aggregate monthly benefits premium under COBRA for twelve months. In addition, 100% of the shares underlying all unvested equity awards held by each of Mr. Kadambi or Mr. Sankaran immediately prior to such termination will become vested and exercisable in full for a period of one year after the date of termination. If Mr. Kadambi or Mr. Sankaran is terminated for death or disability, 25% of the shares underlying all unvested equity awards held by each of Mr. Kadambi or Mr. Sankaran immediately prior to such termination will become vested and exercisable in full for a period of one year after the date of termination.
If any executive officer, other than Mr. Kadambi and Mr. Sankaran, is terminated other than for cause, death or disability and apart from a change in control, that officer would be entitled to receive (i) 25% of his or her then-current annual base salary, and (ii) an estimate of the aggregate monthly benefits premium under COBRA for twelve months. If any executive officer, other than Mr. Kadambi and Mr. Sankaran, is terminated other than for cause, death or disability and within three months before or twelve months after a change in control, that officer would be entitled to receive (i) 75% of his or her then-current annual base salary, and (ii) an estimate of the aggregate monthly benefits premium under COBRA for twelve months. In addition, 100% of the shares underlying all unvested equity awards held by that officer immediately prior to such termination will become vested and exercisable in full for a period of one year after the date of termination. If any executive officer, other than Mr. Kadambi and Mr. Sankaran, is terminated for death or disability, 25% of the shares underlying all unvested equity awards held by that officer immediately prior to such termination will become vested and exercisable in full for a period of one year after the date of termination.
The severance policy further provides that in the event that an equity incentive plan or other previously negotiated agreement that is effective at the time of termination provides severance benefits that are more favorable to the executive officer than those provided for in the severance policy, then the more favorable provision in the plan or agreement shall prevail.
DIRECTOR COMPENSATION FOR YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013
Non-Employee Director Compensation
Prior to our IPO, new non-employee members of our Board who were not affiliated with our largest venture capital firm investors received a stock option award upon commencement of their service as a director. In June 2013, Mr. Habib and Mr. Lares were appointed to our Board. On July 18, 2013, Mr. Habib and Mr. Lares each received an option to purchase 47,500 shares of common stock at a price per share of $10.74, which was the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The stock option granted to Mr. Habib has a vesting commencement date of June 12, 2013, the date Mr. Habib joined the Board, and the stock option granted to Mr. Lares has a vesting commencement date of June 17, 2013, the date Mr. Lares joined the Board. Each of the stock options granted to Mr. Habib and Mr. Lares vests 25% after 12 months and then vests in equal monthly installments over the subsequent 36 months. On October 22, 2013, Mr. Springer was appointed to our Board and received an award of 14,060 RSUs of common stock at a price per unit of $8.89, which was the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The restricted stock award granted to Mr. Springer vests annually in three equal installments.
Following our IPO, each non-employee director became entitled to receive compensation for his or her service consisting of annual cash retainers and equity awards. Our non-employee directors are entitled to receive the following annual cash retainers for their service:
Position | | Retainer | |
Board Member | | $ | 30,000 | |
Audit Committee Chair | | | 15,000 | |
Compensation Committee Chair | | | 10,000 | |
Nominating and Governance Committee Chair | | | 5,000 | |
Audit Committee Member | | | 7,500 | |
Compensation Committee Member | | | 5,000 | |
Nominating and Governance Committee Member | | | 2,500 | |
Following the IPO, equity awards will consist of an initial stock award, upon first appointment to our Board, with a Black-Scholes value of $125,000, and annual awards thereafter with a Black-Scholes value of $70,000. If awards consist of options they will be granted with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant and vest over three years after the grant date (for initial grants) or one year after the grant date (for annual grants). If such awards are restricted stock units they will vest over three years after the grant date (for initial grants) or one year after the grant date (for annual grants).
Non-employee directors receive no other form of remuneration, perquisites or benefits, but are reimbursed for their expenses in attending meetings, including travel, meal and other expenses incurred to attend meetings.
The following table shows for the year ended December 31, 2013 certain information with respect to the compensation of all non-employee directors of the Company that served during 2013. Mr. Kadambi and Mr. Sankaran, who are employees and executive officers, receive no compensation for their service as directors.
