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

On September 5, 2012, the Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of Limelight Networks, Inc. (the "Company") approved a supplemental bonus pool created within the existing 2012 Master Executive and Management Bonus Plan (the "Plan") in order to align employee incentives with the Company's strategic initiatives, specifically growth of the software-as-a-service component of the Company's business. This supplemental bonus pool does not increase or modify the target bonus amount for any named executive officer or other Plan participant, but does create an alternative corporate performance goal, attainment of which provides an alternative method for Plan participants to earn a portion of their existing target bonus amounts.
