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

On June 19, 2025, Verint Systems Inc. (the "Company" or "Verint") held its 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting"). On June 22, 2023, Verint's stockholders approved the Verint Systems Inc. 2023 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (the "Existing Plan"). On May 7, 2025, the board of directors of Verint (the "Board") adopted Amendment No. 1 ("Amendment No. 1") to the Existing Plan (as amended by Amendment No. 1, the "Amended Plan"), subject to stockholder approval. At the Annual Meeting, Verint's stockholders approved Amendment No. 1.

The Amended Plan authorizes the Board to provide equity-based compensation to employees, directors, and certain consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries in the form of (1) stock options, including incentive stock options entitling the participant to favorable tax treatment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (2) stock appreciation rights, (3) restricted stock, (4) restricted stock units, (5) performance awards, and (6) other stock-based awards, including stock grants and dividend equivalents. Subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended Plan and its share counting rules, the number of shares of Verint's common stock that may be issued or transferred will not exceed the sum of (i) 6,561,000 shares on an option-equivalent basis, plus (ii) the number of shares remaining available for issuance under the Existing Plan on June 19, 2025, plus (iii) the number of shares that become available for issuance under the Amended Plan share counting provisions (including, but not limited to, shares that are recycled as a result of forfeiture or cancellation of unvested awards outstanding under the Existing Plan and under the Verint Systems Inc. 2019 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan). Further, awards to non-employee directors will be subject to the Non-Employee Director Compensation Limit (as defined in the Amended Plan). Amendment No. 1 also extends the term of the Amended Plan to June 19, 2035 and revises the fungible share counting ratio from 1.90 to 1.86.

Except as noted above, the principal features of the Amended Plan are the same as the principal features of the Existing Plan.

A copy of Amendment No. 1 has been filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
