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

On March 3, 2010, at a regularly scheduled meeting, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Cybersource Corporation (the "Company") approved the Company's 2010 Senior Management Bonus Plan (the "Plan"), which provides for bonuses for all eligible Company employees with a title of vice president or above and employee directors with a title of director, senior director or the equivalent (each a "Participant" and collectively, the "Participants") based on the Company's achievement of certain annual financial targets. Based on the Company's achievement against its internal, full year non-GAAP operating income target set forth in the 2010 financial plan, adopted and approved by the Board, as may be amended from time to time at the sole discretion of the Board, all Participants can receive a bonus up to the target bonus amount. Bonus target amounts are calculated as a percentage of base salary and vary by Participant.

The total, pre-tax dollar amount of the target bonus paid to each Participant is comprised of two components. Seventy-five percent (75%) of the bonus amount is based on overall Company performance relative to its full year, non-GAAP operating income target. Twenty-five percent (25%) of the bonus amount is based on the performance of each individual Participant.

The following executive officers shall be eligible to receive a cash bonus up to the amount set forth following their name: Steven D. Pellizzer ($183,000) and Robert J. Ford ($85,500). Michael A. Walsh will participate in the Plan and, pursuant to a separate employment agreement, is eligible to receive a cash bonus of up to $400,000. William S. McKiernan, the Company's Executive Chairman, is not eligible under the Plan since he is no longer serving as the Company's Chief Executive Officer.
