Appointment of President
On March 10, 2025, Five9, Inc. (the “Company”) promoted Andy Dignan, the Company’s current Chief Operating Officer, to serve as the Company’s President, effective immediately.
Mr. Dignan, 47, has served as the Company’s Chief Operating Officer since November 2023. Prior to that, Mr. Dignan served as the Company’s Chief Customer Officer from December 2022, and prior to that served in various executive positions within the Company since his initial hire as Senior Vice President, Professional Services in September 2018. Prior to Five9, Mr. Dignan served as the Global Head of Collaboration & Contact Center GTM at Cisco Systems, Inc., a networking, cloud, and cybersecurity solutions company from November 2014 to September 2018. Prior to Cisco, Mr. Dignan led the Collaboration & Contact Center at CDW, an IT solutions and services company from 2007 to 2014. Mr. Dignan earned his B.S. degree in Marketing from Trinity International University.
Effective upon Mr. Dignan’s appointment as the Company’s President, Mr. Dignan began receiving an annual base salary of $465,000 and became eligible to earn an annual bonus with a target amount of $395,250 under the Company’s 2025 Executive Bonus Program (or successor programs), subject to the achievement of corporate performance targets that the Compensation Committee approved in February 2025. In addition, Mr. Dignan will remain eligible to receive benefits under the Company’s 2019 Key Employee Severance Benefit Plan as a Tier 3 Participant (as previously disclosed). The Company will also grant Mr. Dignan (i) a restricted stock unit (“RSU”) award under the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan with the underlying shares having a dollar value of $1,333,333 million, which will vest as to 1/16th of the total number of shares subject to the RSU every three months after March 3, 2025, in each case, subject to his continued service with the Company on each vesting date and (ii) a performance-based restricted stock unit (“PRSU”) award with the underlying shares having a target dollar value of $666,667. The amount of 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 shareholder return (“RTSR”) performance as compared to the companies in the S&P Software and Services Select Index during three overlapping performance periods: (i) a one-year performance period (2025), (ii) a two-year performance period (2025-2026), and (iii) a three-year performance period (2025-2027). One-third of the total PRSUs may be earned and settled in shares following the end of each performance period based on RTSR performance and subject to continued employment through the payment date. The RSU award and the PRSU award will be granted and calculated in accordance with the Company’s equity award grant policy and will otherwise be on the Company’s standard terms contained in the previously filed forms of award agreements.
The Company and Mr. Dignan previously entered into an indemnification agreement 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, which indemnification agreement will continue to be in effect following Mr. Dignan’s appointment as the Company’s President.
There are no reportable family relationships or related party transactions (as defined in Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K) involving the Company and Mr. Dignan.
