On July 2, 2013, Wade Chambers, the Company’s Executive Vice President of Engineering, notified the Company that he intends to terminate his employment, with July 12, 2013 expected to be his final date of employment. The Company intends to reorganize the engineering organization into three teams, each of which reports directly to a Vice President responsible for one or more of the Company’s security-as-a-service platform solutions. The teams will be organized as follows: Proofpoint Enterprise Protection and Privacy; Proofpoint Enterprise Archive and Governance; and Proofpoint Mail Essentials. This reorganization is expected to eliminate the need for an Executive Vice President of Engineering going forward.
