**Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.** 

On December 17, 2025, Five9, Inc. (the "Company") announced that the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company appointed, effective as of February 2, 2026 (the "Effective Date"), Amit Mathradas as the Company's Chief Executive Officer and as a Class III director of the Company with a term set to expire at the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders. Michael Burkland will no longer serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, effective as of the Effective Date. As previously disclosed, as of Mr. Mathradas' appointment, Mr. Burkland will continue to serve on the Board in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Employment Transition Agreement, by and between Michael Burkland and the Company, dated as of July 31, 2025.

Mr. Mathradas, age 50, has served as Chief Executive Officer and a member of the board of directors for Nintex USA, Inc., a workflow automation company, since March 2023. Prior to that, Mr. Mathradas served as the President and Chief Operating Officer of Avalara, Inc., a tax software provider, from March 2019 to January 2023. From November 2015 to March 2019, Mr. Mathradas served as General Manager and Head of North American Small Business at PayPal, a digital payments company, where he led the company's small business segment, managing teams responsible for acquisition, activation, cross-sell, and retention of small businesses. Prior to PayPal, from September 2013 to October 2015, Mr. Mathradas served as Senior Vice President and General Manager of Web.com, an internet services offering, focusing on small businesses. Mr. Mathradas holds a bachelor's degree from Wittenberg University and an M.B.A. from Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management. Mr. Mathradas will be added to the Board because he will be our Chief Executive Officer and therefore will have unique perspectives on the Company and its business and because of his extensive experience as a chief executive officer and senior executive at companies in the technology industry.

There are no understandings or arrangements between Mr. Mathradas and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Mathradas was selected to serve a director of the Company. There are no relationships between Mr. Mathradas and the Company or any of its subsidiaries that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

In connection with Mr. Mathradas' appointment, the Company and Mr. Mathradas entered into an offer letter dated December 15, 2025 (the "Offer Letter"). Pursuant to the Offer Letter, Mr. Mathradas will receive an initial base salary of $600,000 and will be eligible to earn an annual bonus with a target amount of 100% of his base salary under the Company's 2026 Executive Bonus Program (or successor programs), subject to the achievement of corporate performance targets which will be approved by the Compensation Committee in 2026 and with any bonus paid for 2026 prorated based on his start date. In addition, Mr. Mathradas will be eligible for a sign-on bonus in the amount of $550,000, which will be paid in 2 installments. If Mr. Mathradas voluntarily terminates employment with the Company or is terminated for cause, within 12 months after the Effective Date, Mr. Mathradas is required to repay to the Company 75% of the gross amount of the sign-on bonus (or portion thereof) that he received, within 30 days of his termination date.

In addition, Mr. Mathradas will be eligible to receive benefits under the Five9, Inc. 2019 Key Employee Severance Benefit Plan (the "KESP") as a Tier 1 Participant, except that (i) subject to the other requirements of the KESP, upon a termination by the Company without cause, he will be eligible to receive the following additional payments: (A) a lump sum payment equal to the annual bonus for any completed year that is earned but unpaid as of his termination date, based on actual performance for such completed year (the "Prior Year Bonus") and (B) a lump sum payment equal to the annual bonus for the year in which his termination occurs, based on actual annual performance and pro-rated for the portion of the year that he was employed by the Company prior to his termination date (the "Pro-Rata Bonus"); and (ii) upon a Constructive Termination (as defined in the Offer Letter) that is not in connection with a change in control, Mr. Mathradas will receive the same benefits under the KESP as he would for a termination by the Company without cause.

The Company will also grant Mr. Mathradas (i) a restricted stock unit award ("RSU") with the underlying shares having a dollar value of $12.5 million, which will vest as to one-third of the total number of shares subject to the RSU on March 3, 2027 and one-twelfth of the total number of shares subject to the RSU every three months thereafter, in each case, subject to his continued service with the Company on each vesting date, except that upon a qualifying termination of employment (which includes an involuntary termination without cause or a Constructive Termination) prior to March 3, 2027, 1/3 of such RSU will become vested on his termination date, and (ii) a performance-based restricted stock unit award ("PRSU Award") with the underlying shares having a target dollar value of $14.0 million. The amount of performance-based restricted stock units ("PRSUs") that may be earned pursuant to the PRSU Award ranges from 0% to 200% of the target number of PRSUs based on the Company's relative total stockholder return ("RTSR") performance as compared to the companies in the S&P Software and Services Select Index during two over-lapping performance periods consisting of (i) a two-year period (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2027) (the "2-Year Performance Period") and (ii) a three-year period (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2028) (the "3-Year Performance Period"). 60% of the total PRSUs may be earned and settled in shares following the end of the 2-Year Performance Period and 40% of the total PRSUs may be earned and settled in shares following the end of the 3-Year Performance Period, in each case, based on RTSR performance and subject to continued employment through the applicable payment date; provided that upon a qualifying termination of employment that occurs between January 1, 2027 and December 31, 2027, up to 33% of the maximum number of PRSUs may be earned and settled in shares following such qualifying termination, based on RTSR performance during the period consisting of January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026. If the Company's actual total stockholder return for any performance period is negative, then no more than 100% of the target amount of PRSUs for such period may be earned. Upon a qualifying termination of employment in connection with a change in control of the Company, 100% of the unvested RSUs will vest on a double-trigger basis and the unvested PRSUs will vest on a double-trigger basis (i) at the target level for the uncompleted portions of the performance periods and (ii) at the actual level of performance measured through the date of the change in control of the Company, based on the price per share paid in such

------

change in control. The RSUs and PRSUs are otherwise on the Company's standard terms contained in the previously filed forms of award agreements.

The Company will provide Mr. Mathradas with corporate housing and the use of a Company-owned or leased automobile in the San Francisco Bay Area for the period from the Effective Date through the 18-month anniversary of the Effective Date (the "Transition Period"). The Company will also reimburse Mr. Mathradas for travel expenses he incurs with respect to his travel to and from the San Francisco Bay Area during the Transition Period.

If Mr. Mathradas is required to relocate to the San Francisco Bay Area after the Transition Period, the Company will provide market-competitive relocation benefits for an executive-level role, which will be determined at the time of such relocation (if applicable). If Mr. Mathradas voluntarily terminates his employment or is terminated for cause within 12 months after his relocation, he will be required to repay the Company 75% of the gross amount of the relocation benefits he received within 30 days of his termination of employment to the extent permitted by applicable law.

The foregoing is not a complete description of the Offer Letter and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Offer Letter, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The Company will enter into an indemnification agreement with Mr. Mathradas in the form previously filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 5, 2015. The indemnification agreement will require the Company to indemnify Mr. Mathradas to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liability that may arise by reason of his service to the Company, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against him as to which he could be indemnified, among other things.

## Exhibit 10.1

![](five9-offerletterexecuti001.jpg)

Exhibit 10.1 December 15, 2025 Amit Mathradas Dear Amit, We are very pleased to offer you employment with Five9, Inc. ("Company" or "Five9") as our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"). You shall have the usual duties of a CEO, including, without limitation, managing the day-to-day business of the Company, developing the Company's strategic direction, business plans, and financing and capitalization opportunities, supervising the Company's executives, communicating with the Company's Board of Directors ("Board") and the Company's stockholders, and evaluating, negotiating, and executing significant business transactions on behalf of the Company, as well as such other duties as may be assigned to you from time to time by the Board. You shall report to the Board. You shall agree to serve and be nominated as a member of the Board during your employment with the Company, and you may be asked to serve as an officer or director (or equivalent positions) of one or more subsidiaries or affiliates of the Company. Upon the severance of your employment for any reason, you shall be deemed to have resigned from the Board and from all other positions as an officer or director (or equivalent positions) of any of the Company's subsidiaries or affiliates. You agree that during your employment with the Company, you will (i) devote as much time and effort as reasonably necessary for the performance of your responsibilities under this letter, (ii) refrain from engaging in services of any kind (whether as an employee, independent contractor, owner, director, partner, advisor or in any other capacity) on behalf of a business that, as determined by the Board in its reasonable discretion, competes with the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates), and (iii) refrain from providing services of any kind or engage in any other business activity that would materially interfere with the performance of your duties as CEO. As a general policy, you may not serve on more than two public company boards of directors (including the Company's board of directors), unless such service is approved by a majority of non-affected members of the Company's board of directors. In addition, your service on the board of directors (or similar body) of any other business entity, or the provision of other services to

------

![](five9-offerletterexecuti002.jpg)

2 other business entities, is subject to the prior approval of the Board, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall have the right to require you to resign from any board or similar body on which you may then serve if the Board reasonably determines that your service on such board or body interferes with the effective discharge of your duties and responsibilities to the Company or that any business related to such service is then in competition with any business of the Company or any of its affiliates, successors or assigns. You will also follow the Company's policies and procedures (including its policies protecting other employees against discrimination and sexual harassment) as described to you from time to time. Your expected employment start date is February 2, 2026 (the "Effective Date"). In this position, you will receive an annual base salary of $600,000, less applicable withholdings, paid according to the Company's standard payroll practices. In addition, you will be eligible to earn an annual bonus with a target amount of 100% of base salary, less applicable withholdings, subject to the terms of the Company's 2026 Executive Bonus Program to be adopted by the Board in the first quarter of 2026, and any bonus programs approved by the Compensation Committee for subsequent periods ("Bonus Program") and based on the objectives set forth in the Bonus Program. Your bonus will be determined based solely on the Company's performance against the objectives set forth in the Bonus Program. If earned, your bonus will be paid on an annual basis, or such other basis as is approved by the Compensation Committee, and any bonus paid for the remainder of 2026 will be pro-rated based on your start date. The Compensation Committee retains sole discretion to determine the eligibility, timing and amount of any bonus you are eligible to receive. The Company will also pay you a one-time sign-on bonus in the gross amount of $550,000 (the "Sign-On Bonus"). The Company will pay 50% of the Sign-On Bonus in the first payroll that occurs following the 30-day period after the Effective Date and will pay the remaining 50% of the Sign-On Bonus in the first payroll that occurs following the 6-month anniversary of the Effective Date; subject to your continued employment through each payment date. The Sign-On Bonus is not considered earned until you complete 12 months of employment with the Company. If you voluntarily terminate employment or your employment is terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined in the KESP (as defined below)) within 12 months after the Effective Date, you will be required to repay to the Company 75% of the gross amount of the Sign-On Bonus (or portion thereof) that you received. You must make such repayment within 30 days of your termination date. The Company will grant you (i) an award of restricted stock units ("RSUs") covering a number of shares of Company common stock with a target dollar value of $12.5 million and (ii) an award of performance-based restricted stock units ("PRSUs") covering a number of shares of Company common stock with a target value of $14 million, in each case as determined under the Company's Equity Award Grant Policy in effect on the date of this letter. Assuming your employment start

------

![](five9-offerletterexecuti003.jpg)

3 date is February 2, 2026, the RSUs and PRSUs would have the same grant date as the Company's annual refresh grants to other executives in the first quarter of the 2026 fiscal year. The RSUs would have a vesting commencement date of March 3, 2026 (pursuant to the Company's standard vesting terms) and would vest as to 1/3 of the total number of shares subject to the RSUs on March 3, 2027 and 1/12 of the total number of shares subject to the RSUs on each June 3, September 3, December 3 and March 3 thereafter, so that the RSUs are fully vested on March 3, 2029 (such period, the "Vesting Period"), subject to your continued service on each vesting date; provided, however, that if you incur an Involuntary Termination Without Cause (as defined in the KESP) or a Constructive Termination (as defined below) prior to March 3, 2027, 1/3 of the total number of shares subject to the RSUs will become vested upon your Separation from Service (as defined in the KESP). Between 0 and 200% (determined in accordance with the Company's standard PRSU agreement) of the target number of PRSUs will be eligible to vest based on the Company's relative total shareholder return ("RTSR") performance as compared to the companies in the S&P Software and Services Select Index during two overlapping performance periods consisting of (i) a two-year period (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2027) (the "2-Year Performance Period") and (ii) a three-year period (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2028) (the"3-Year Performance Period"). 60% of the maximum number of PRSUs may be earned and settled in shares following the end of the 2-Year Performance Period and 40% of the maximum number of PRSUs may be earned and settled in shares following the end of the 3-Year Performance Period, in each case, based on RTSR performance and subject to your continued employment through the applicable payment date; provided, however, that if you incur an Involuntary Termination Without Cause or a Constructive Termination between January 1, 2027 and December 31, 2027, up to 33% of the maximum number of PRSUs may be earned and settled in shares following such termination of employment, based on RTSR performance during the period consisting of January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026. The RSUs and PRSUs will each otherwise be governed by the Company's 2014 Equity Incentive Plan and standard form of RSU and PRSU award agreement. You acknowledge and agree that you will not be eligible to receive any further equity incentive awards under the Company's 2014 Equity Incentive Plan from the Company during the Company's annual "refresh grant" cycle for other executives and employees in the first quarter of the 2026 fiscal year. After such annual "refresh grant" cycle, you will be eligible to receive additional equity incentive awards, from time to time, in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board. You agree to travel to the Company's headquarters as necessary during your employment. To assist you with such travel, the Company will provide the following benefits: (1) From the Effective Date through the 18-month anniversary of the Effective Date (the "Transition Period"), the Company shall provide you with (i) fully furnished 3-

------

![](five9-offerletterexecuti004.jpg)

4 bedroom corporate housing located in the San Francisco Bay Area and (ii) the use of a Company-owned or leased automobile of reasonable make and size, for your use when working in the Company's headquarters. The dollar value of such benefits will be a reasonable amount mutually agreed between you and the Board. (2) During your employment, the Company will reimburse you for all reasonable and necessary business expenses incurred in the course of performing your duties under this letter in accordance with the Company's reimbursement policies in effect from time to time with respect to business travel, entertainment and other business expenses. In addition, for purposes of this letter, such reimbursable business expenses will include travel expenses you incur with respect to your travel to and from the San Francisco Bay Area during the Transition Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will be entitled to travel business class on all air travel performed in connection with your employment. At the end of the Transition Period, the parties will discuss your location and will continue to do so from time to time thereafter, as needed. If you are required by the Company to relocate after the Transition Period, the Company will provide written notice to you at least 9 months prior to your required move date. If you are required by the Company to relocate following the Transition Period, the Company will provide you with market-competitive relocation benefits for an executive-level role, which will be determined at the time of your relocation (the "Relocation Benefits"), and which Relocation Benefits will not be considered earned until 12 months after your relocation date, if you remain continuously employed by the Company during such 12-month period. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if you voluntarily terminate employment with the Company or you are terminated for Cause within 12 months after the date of your relocation, you will be required to repay to the Company the 75% of the gross amount of the relocation benefits provided to you. You must make such repayment within 30 days of your termination date. You will be eligible for benefits provided under the KESP as a Tier 1 Participant; except that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the KESP, (i) the definition of Involuntary Termination Without Cause will include a "Constructive Termination" using the definition set forth below; and (ii) subject to the other terms of the KESP, upon an Involuntary Termination Without Cause, you will be eligible to receive the following additional payments: (A) a lump sum payment in the amount of any bonus for any completed year that is earned but unpaid as of your Separation from Service, based on actual performance for such completed year (the "Prior Year Bonus") and (B) a lump sum amount equal to the annual bonus that would have been earned for the year your Separation from Service occurs, based on actual performance had you remained employed with the Company through the payment date of such annual bonus, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal the number of days you were employed during such year, and the denominator of which shall be equal to the total number of days in such year (the "Pro-Rata

------

![](five9-offerletterexecuti005.jpg)

5 Bonus"). The Prior Year Bonus and the Pro-Rata Bonus, if any, will be payable on the date the bonuses for the applicable year are paid to other senior executives of the Company, but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the year to which such bonus relates. If, at any time during your employment as Chief Executive Officer, (1) the KESP expires or is terminated and is not replaced with a new plan, contract or arrangement providing total severance benefits that are at least as favorable in the aggregate to you, or (2) if your severance benefits under the KESP, as modified by this letter, are reduced, you will continue to be eligible to receive the severance benefits set forth in the KESP, as modified by this letter, for a Tier 1 Participant in effect as of the date of this letter and subject to all other applicable terms and conditions of the KESP as of the date of this letter. "Constructive Termination" means your resignation from all positions you then hold with the Company, resulting in a Separation from Service, because one of the following events or actions is undertaken without your written consent: (i) a material diminution in your authority, duties or responsibilities (which would include a failure to remain as the primary executive officer of the resulting combined entity after a Change in Control); (ii) a material reduction in your annual base salary (other than a reduction that affects all senior executives of the Company to a similar degree), which the parties agree is a reduction of ten percent (10%) or more; (iii) a material adverse change in the geographic location of the principal office at which you must perform your services, which the parties agree (A) is a change that increases your one way commute by more than forty (40) miles, and (B) for the avoidance of doubt, includes a unilateral decision by the Company to require you to relocate during the Transition Period or (iv) the successor entity or surviving corporation in a Change in Control refuses to materially assume and comply with the terms of the KESP, as modified by this letter. An event or action will not give you grounds for Constructive Termination unless (1) you give the Company written notice within sixty (60) days after the initial existence of the event or action that you intend to resign in a Constructive Termination due to such event or action; (2) the event or action is not reasonably cured by the Company within thirty (30) days after the Company receives such written notice from you; and (3) and your Separation from Service occurs within thirty (30) days after the end of the cure period. Capitalized terms set forth in this paragraph (other than Constructive Termination) have the meaning set forth in the KESP (as modified by this paragraph). 1 As a full-time employee of the Company, you will be eligible to participate in Company-sponsored vacation policies and employee benefits and be a member of any employee benefit plans that the Company may establish and that are generally available to other executives of the Company. Your employment with the Company is "at will." This means that you are free to resign at any time with or without cause or prior notice. Similarly, the Company is free to terminate its employment relationship with you at any time, with or without cause or prior notice. As you know, 1 The revised release will be attached to the Particiption Notice/KESP.

6 Five9 is involved in a highly competitive and quickly evolving industry. Although your job duties, title, compensation and benefits, as well as the Company's policies and procedures, may change from time-to-time, the "at-will" nature of your employment may only be changed in a document signed by you and the Chairman or Executive Chairman of the Board, or if you are the Chairman or Executive Chairman, by you and the Lead Independent Director of the Board.

The Company shall reimburse you for reasonable legal fees incurred in the negotiation of this letter.

You further confirm that you have no other agreements, relationships with or commitments to any other person or entity that conflict with your obligations as an employee of the Company (including but not limited to noncompetition and non-solicitation agreements), and you represent that your employment will not require you to violate any obligation to or confidence with any other entity or person. Your employment pursuant to this offer is contingent on the following: (1) your signing of the Company's Agreement Regarding Confidential Information, Intellectual Property, Non- Solicitation; (2) your ability to provide the Company with the legally-required proof of your identity and authorization to work in the United States; (3) the Company's satisfaction that you will not be in violation of any non-compete, proprietary invention and information agreements, or any other similar agreement between you and any current or former employer or other entity to which you provide or have provided services; and (4) your signing of the Company's Mutual Arbitration Agreement. This letter will in all respects be governed, enforced, interpreted and applied under the laws of the State of Washington exclusive of its choice of law principles.
