Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On Friday, April 13, 2012, John Vincent expressed his intent to the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Limelight Networks, Inc. (the "Company") not to stand for re-election as a Class II director of the Company at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which is scheduled to be held June 7, 2012 (the "Annual Meeting"). Mr. Vincent's decision to not stand for re-election as a director of the Company is not the result of any disagreements with the Company relating to its operations, policies or practices. On Wednesday, April 18, 2012, following recommendation from the Board's Nominating and Governance Committee and pursuant to the bylaws of the Company, the Board unanimously approved a reduction in the size of the Board from ten (10) seats to nine (9) seats, effective as of the Annual Meeting. This will result in a nine (9) member Board consisting of four (4) Class I directors, two (2) Class II directors and three (3) Class III directors.
