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

  

(d)           On January 5, 2014, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Brightcove Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Derek Harrar to the Board to fill a vacancy as a Class II director, to serve until the Company’s 2014 annual meeting of stockholders or until his successor is duly elected and qualified.

 

At the time of appointment, it was not determined whether Mr. Harrar would sit on any Board committee.

 

Mr. Harrar’s compensation will be consistent with that provided to all of the Company’s non-employee directors, as described in the Company’s most recent proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 1, 2013. In addition, the Company expects to enter into an indemnification agreement with Mr. Harrar in connection with his appointment to the Board, which is expected to be in substantially the same form as that entered into with the other directors of the Company.

 

There is no arrangement or understanding pursuant to which Mr. Harrar was appointed to the Board. There are no family relationships between Mr. Harrar and any director or executive officer of the Company, and Mr. Harrar has no direct or indirect material interest in any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

On January 9, 2014, the Company issued a press release announcing Mr. Harrar’s appointment to the Board as discussed in Item 5.02(d) of this Report on Form 8-K. The full text of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
