Item 5.02    Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
(e) At the Commvault Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) fiscal 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Company’s stockholders approved the Commvault Systems, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan as amended by the First Amendment (the “Incentive Plan”), pursuant to which the Company may grant awards to its officers, employees, directors, consultants, independent contractors and agents and those of its affiliates. The Incentive Plan includes provisions that are currently common in the market and enables the Company to grant a broader spectrum of awards that are performance-based for purposes of section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Awards that may be granted under the Incentive Plan include stock options, stock appreciation rights, full value awards (including restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares or units and other stock-based awards) and cash-based awards. The Incentive Plan originally reserved a total of 2,800,000 shares of Common Stock. The First Amendment increased the number of shares available for issuance under the Incentive Plan by 750,000 for a total of 3,550,000 shares of Common Stock.
A more complete description of the Incentive Plan is contained in the Company’s proxy statement, dated July  3, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Proxy Statement”), under the heading “Proposal 3 – Approval of Commvault Systems, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended by the First Amendment” which is incorporated herein by reference. The descriptions of the Incentive Plan set forth herein and in the Proxy Statement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the Incentive Plan which is set forth in Exhibit 10.1 hereto.
