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

On September 6, 2012, Andrew Keenan announced his intention to resign as Chief Financial Officer of Carbonite, Inc. (the "Company") in order to pursue other opportunities. Mr. Keenan plans to continue as Chief Financial Officer of the Company through January 31, 2013 (the "Resignation Date") and thereafter as a consultant through October 31, 2013 (the "Separation Date"), in order to facilitate an orderly transition of his responsibilities. The Company has initiated a search to identify a replacement Chief Financial Officer and expects to conclude the search process expeditiously.

In consideration of Mr. Keenan's transition and in exchange for a general release of claims against the Company, the Company and Mr. Keenan intend to enter into a separation agreement on substantially the following terms:
(1) continuation of Mr. Keenan's base salary, payable in the Company's normal payroll cycles, through the Resignation Date, and thereafter compensation for consulting services through the Separation Date; (2) a payment from the Company in an amount equal to the monthly premium payable for Mr. Keenan's health insurance during the month prior to the Resignation Date, multiplied by the number of months during the period from the Resignation Date through the Separation Date; (3) continuation of option vesting through the Separation Date in accordance with the terms of any option award agreements previously entered into by Mr. Keenan and the Company; and (4) extension of the period during which Mr. Keenan may exercise stock options vested as of the Separation Date.
