In light of the definitive merger agreement dated March 26, 2012, among the Company, Peak Holding Corp. and Peak Merger Corp., the 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders has been postponed and, as a result, the Company is amending the Form 10-K to provide the disclosures required in Part III because the Company no longer intends to file its definitive proxy statement within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. We are also amending Part IV Item 15 of the Report solely to add as exhibits certain new certifications required to be filed with this Amendment No. 1 to the Report.

Except for Items 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 of Part III and Item 15 of Part IV, respectively, no other information included in the Report is changed by this Amendment No. 1.

This Amendment No. 1 to the Report should be read in conjunction with the Form 10-K and the Company’s other filings made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This Amendment No. 1 to the Report continues to speak as of the date of the Report, and except as expressly set forth herein we have not updated the disclosures contained in this Amendment No. 1 to the Report to reflect any events that occurred at a date subsequent to the filing of the Report. The filing of this Amendment No. 1 to the Report is not a representation that any statements contained in items of the Report other than that information being amended are true or complete as of any date subsequent to the date of the Report.

Board Leadership Structure / Independent Oversight

With the appointment in February 2010 of R. Blake Young as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the positions of CEO and Chairman of the Board have been separated. Mr. Alec Dreyer serves as Chairman of the Board and Lead Director. The Board believes that this structure encourages the free and open dialogue of competing views and provides for strong checks and balances. Additionally, Mr. Dreyer’s attention to Board and committee matters allows Mr. Young to focus more specifically on overseeing the Company’s day-to-day operations and activities, as well as strategic opportunities and planning. The Board also believes that one of the key elements of effective, independent oversight is that our independent directors meet in executive sessions on a regular basis without the presence of management. In fiscal year 2012, our Board, including its committees, collectively held 57 meetings and, as part of the agenda, the independent directors met in executive session with Mr. Dreyer, the Lead Director presiding at such meetings.

Committees of the Board

Our Board of Directors has three permanent committees: Audit Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Compensation Committee. Our Board has affirmatively determined that all of the directors who serve, or previously served during 2012, on these committees are independent directors within the meaning of the applicable Nasdaq Global Market listing standards, SEC rules and relevant securities and other laws and regulations.

Audit Committee. The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors is currently composed of Messrs. Dreyer, Jones, Rego and Hoefling. Mr. Rego currently serves as Chairman of the Audit Committee. Our Board has determined that Messrs. Dreyer and Rego both qualify as audit committee financial experts under the current SEC regulations, and that the other members of our Audit Committee also satisfy the financial literacy and other requirements for audit committee members under the Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Global Market. The Audit Committee assists the Board in overseeing: (1) our accounting and financial reporting processes; (2) the audits of our financial statements; (3) our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; (4) the qualifications and independence of our independent registered public accounting firm; and (5) the performance of our internal audit function and our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee’s charter further provides that the Audit Committee, among other things:

• has sole authority to appoint, compensate, retain, evaluate and terminate our independent registered public accounting firm;

• has sole authority to review and approve in advance all audit and permissible non-audit engagement fees, scope and terms with our independent registered public accounting firm;

• review and approve all related party transactions between us and any executive officer or director;

• will monitor the compliance of our officers, directors and employees with our code of business conduct and ethics; and

• will establish and maintain procedures for (1) the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls and auditing matters and (2) the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.

9

The Audit Committee, whose members also made up the Transaction Committee of the Board during fiscal year 2011, held 16 meetings during fiscal year 2011 and met in differing executive sessions with all non-employee directors and with our independent registered public accounting firm at each of its meetings. The written charter for the Audit Committee is available on our website at http://ir.comverge.com.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board of Directors is composed of and Messrs. Hoefling, McCarter and Moore, and Ms. Brownell, who serves as Chair of the Committee. The principal duties of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are to:

• recommend to our Board proposed nominees for election to the Board by the stockholders at annual meetings, including an annual review as to the re-nominations of incumbents and proposed nominees for election by the Board to fill vacancies that occur between stockholder meetings;

• develop, in conjunction with executive management, and periodically report to our Board regarding succession plans for our chief executive officer and other officers; and

• make recommendations to the Board regarding corporate governance matters and practices.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held five meetings during fiscal year 2011 and met in executive session with all non-employee directors at each of its meetings. The written charter for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is available on our website at http://ir.comverge.com.

Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors is composed of Messrs Jones, McCarter, Dreyer and Kuzma, who serves as the Chairman of the Committee. Pursuant to its charter, the Compensation Committee has the following responsibilities, among others:

• to review and establish, at least annually, with the input of management, corporate goals, objectives, policies and philosophies for all compensation paid to our chief executive officer and other officers, for the defined performance period;

• to determine and approve all compensation paid to the chief executive officer and other officers, including base salary, incentives, incentive plans and perquisites;

• to establish the targets for performance-based compensation of the chief executive officer and other officers for the defined performance period and confirm whether such targets have been met for the completed performance period;

• to report to our Board of Directors, based on input from the entire Board, on the performance of the chief executive officers and other officers in light of the corporate goals, objectives, policies and philosophies established with respect to compensation for the performance period and with respect to the overall management of the Company; and

• to review and recommend to our Board of Directors compensation of non-employee directors, including committee chairpersons and members.

The Compensation Committee held twelve meetings during fiscal year 2011 and met in executive session with all non-employee directors at each of its meetings. The written charter for the Compensation Committee is available on our website at http://ir.comverge.com.

In addition, the Board also has three ad hoc committees: a Regulatory Committee; a Stockholder Communication/Investor Committee; and a Strategy Committee.

Regulatory Committee. Ms. Brownell currently chairs the Regulatory Committee whose purpose is to provide expertise and guidance to the Board and management on energy regulatory matters, including strategic planning in relation to regulatory filings, positions, and other federal, state, and local commission initiatives.

10

Stockholder Communication/Investor Committee. Mr. Jones currently chairs the Stockholder Communication/Investor Committee whose purpose is to act as a conduit between the Board and the Company’s stockholders.

Strategy Committee. The Strategy Committee was adopted by the Board on February 27, 2012 as part of a reconstituted ad hoc Transaction Committee. The current members of the Strategy Committee are Messrs Dreyer, McCarter, Moore and Jones who serves as Chairman of the Committee. The Committee has the power to examine all stockholder value-enhancing alternatives, including capital raising, acquisitions or dispositions, and sale of the Company. The Committee has the authority to take the following actions:

• Engaging legal counsel of the Strategy Committee’s choice to advise the Strategy Committee concerning relevant legal issues, and otherwise to advise the Strategy Committee in discharging its duties and responsibilities, as contemplated by these resolutions;

• Engaging financial advisors of the Strategy Committee’s choice to provide the Strategy Committee with financial and other business advice (including, without limitation, a customary fairness opinion if the Strategy Committee deems such to be advisable) in connection with its duties and responsibilities, as contemplated by these resolutions;

• Engaging other independent professional advisors of the Strategy Committee’s choice as it deems necessary or appropriate in the exercise of its business judgment to assist it in connection with the fulfillment of its duties;

• Entering into engagement letters, contracts and agreements with any or all of the foregoing advisors containing such terms as the Strategy Committee deems appropriate; and

• Fulfilling and adhering to the Strategy Committee powers as set forth above.

The Nominating Process

Director Qualifications

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board of Directors, which is comprised entirely of independent directors, is responsible, in accordance with its charter, for establishing standards for members of the Board and overseeing the performance evaluation of the Board and its members. Based on these evaluations, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends to the Board whether existing members should be nominated for new terms or replaced and whether more or fewer members are appropriate.

The Board, with the assistance of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, establishes criteria for the selection of new members. The basic criteria are found in our Corporate Governance Guidelines under “Board Membership and Service,” located on our website at http://ir.comverge.com. These core competencies include individuals who:

• have the business and/or professional knowledge and experience that will benefit Comverge, our business and the goals and interests of our stockholders,

• are well regarded in the community, with a long-term reputation for honesty and integrity, have good common sense and judgment,

• have a positive record of accomplishment in present and prior positions,

• have an excellent reputation for preparation, attendance, participation, interest and initiative on other boards on which he or she may serve, and

• have the time, energy, interest and willingness to become involved in Comverge and our future.

11

At any given time, in order to maintain a proper balance of expertise, individuals with particular skills may be favored over other candidates who lack such skills but otherwise possess a core competency.

In conjunction with the criteria set forth above, the following outlines the process for reviewing and evaluating incumbent directors:

1) The Board is currently staggered, where Class I Directors are set for election in 2014 and every successive three years thereafter; the Class II Directors are set for election in 2012 and every successive three years thereafter, and Class III Directors are set for election in 2013 and every successive three years thereafter. The specific Class of incumbent Directors whose term is set to expire is the “Director(s) for Election”.

2) Each Director shall complete an evaluation (the “Evaluation”), which shall utilize the metrics noted above and in the Corporate Governance Guidelines, for reviewing Directors for Election;

3) Each Director shall send their completed Evaluation to the Company’s outside counsel for tabulation on the Director(s) for Election results;

4) Outside counsel shall compile the information, prepare a short report, and report directly to the Chairman of the Committee (and to the Lead Director to the extent they are different individuals) the results of the evaluations. Where the Chairman and/or Lead Director is a Director for Election, the results shall be provided to the Class of Directors most recently elected to the Board;

5) The Chairman of the Committee, or the Class of Directors most recently elected if the Chairman is a Director for Election, shall present the results and report to the entire Committee for the Committee to discuss before making a recommendation for nomination or expiration regarding the Director for Election to the Board; and,

6) The Company’s Corporate Secretary shall circulate to the Directors the appropriate documentation and contact information prior to the meeting where such review shall occur.

In the case of new director candidates, the questions of independence and financial expertise will be important in determining what roles the candidate can perform. The Committee will determine whether the candidate meets the independence standards set forth in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations and the Nasdaq rules as well as the extent of the candidate’s experience in the areas of finance and accounting. Candidates will first be interviewed by the Committee. If approved by the Committee, candidates will then be interviewed by all other members of the Board. The full Board, with such interested directors recusing themselves as appropriate, will approve all final nominations after considering the recommendations of the Committee. The Chairman of the Board, acting on behalf of the other members of the Board, will extend the formal invitation to an approved candidate to stand for election to the Board. Qualified candidates for election to the Board will be considered without regard to race, color, religion, sex, ancestry, national origin or disability.

Director Skills and Experience

The Board seeks and is comprised of individuals whose backgrounds and experience complement those of other Board members. When considering whether the Board’s directors and nominees have the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills, taken as a whole, to enable the Board to satisfy its oversight responsibilities effectively in light of the Company’s business and structure, the Board focused primarily on discussing relevant issues with the directors and nominees and the information discussed in each of the board members’ or nominees’ biographical information set forth in this Form 10-K/A. In particular, with regard to Ms. Brownell, the Board considered her extensive experience in the utility and energy industries and her expertise as a former commissioner of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Similarly, with regard to Mr. Jones, the Board considered his 33 years of business experience including his significant experience as the president, chief executive officer and member of the Board of both private and public companies. With regard to Mr. Dreyer, the Board considered his background and expertise in the energy industry and his significant experience while serving on other public company boards, including on

12

their audit committees. With respect to Mr. McCarter, the Board considered his more than 30 years with General Electric, most of which were involved with GE’s Power Systems or Energy Business and which included key corporate officer roles. With regard to Mr. Hoefling, the Board considered his background in advising on the commercial and technical aspects of all domestic and international power generation projects and his more than 20 experience in the energy space, including at Siemens. As for Mr. Rego, the Board considered his financial expertise as chief financial officer at both public and private companies and his financial and business acumen. Similarly, with regard to Mr. Moore, the Board considered his experience as Chairman of Energy & Power investments at Diamond Castle LLC, a private equity investment firm and as former chairman and CEO of American National Power (ANP), one of the largest independent power producers in the United States. With respect to Mr. Kuzma, the Board considered his position as former President of Sempra Energy Resources and as the Chief Financial Officer/Treasurer of three Fortune 500 companies. As for Mr. Young, who serves as our President and Chief Executive Officer, the Board considered his executive management experience with both energy and utility companies and his significant knowledge of our business and industry sector.

Diversity Considerations in Identifying Director Nominees

Although the Board does not have a specific policy with regard to the consideration of diversity in identifying director nominees, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider, among other things, the benefits to Comverge of diversity of race, gender, ethnicity and national origin.

Board Vacancies

When there is an opening or anticipated opening for a director position, our Board members are asked to submit recommendations. Outside sources or third parties may be used to find potential candidates and to evaluate or assist in evaluating nominees brought to the attention of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Should we use the services of a third party, we would expect to pay a fee for such services. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will also consider director candidates recommended by stockholders. Such candidates will be evaluated using the same criteria and standards described above. Any such recommendation must be sent in writing sufficiently in advance of the annual meeting to permit adequate review by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The recommendation should also provide the reasons supporting a candidate’s recommendation, the candidate’s qualifications, the candidate’s consent to being considered as a nominee and a way to contact the candidate to verify his or her interest and to gather further information, if necessary. In addition, the stockholder should submit information demonstrating the number of shares he or she owns.

Stockholders who wish to nominate an individual to the Board must follow the advance notice and other requirements of our Bylaws.

Meetings of the Board of Directors and Committees

During fiscal year 2011, our Board of Directors held 24 meetings due to the significant time and effort spent on recapitalizing the Company. In addition, as part of the Company’s recapitalization efforts, the Board’s three standing committees (Audit Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Compensation Committee) and two ad hoc committees (Regulatory Committee and Transaction Committee), collectively held a total of 33 meetings as the Board sought to spread the work out amongst its committee membership. The Board met in executive session with all non-employee directors during multiple board meetings in 2011. Each director attended at least 75% of the meetings (held during the period that such director served) of the Board and the Committees on which such director served in fiscal year 2011. Directors are recommended to attend annual meetings of stockholders. All members of our Board, who were appointed at that time, also attended the last Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Board Leadership Structure

The Company separates the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board to align the Chairman role with our independent directors and to further enhance the independence of the Board from management. Our Chairman works closely with our Chief Executive Officer to set the agenda for meetings and to facilitate information flow between the Board and management.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Corporate Governance Guidelines

We believe that it is critically important that we maintain sound corporate governance policies and procedures, and we adopted our Corporate Governance Guidelines, as amended, in an effort to increase our focus on corporate governance matters and to enhance the effectiveness of our corporate governance processes. Our Board of Directors adopted these guidelines to ensure that the Board has the practices and procedures in place that are necessary to act on matters related to Comverge’s corporate governance. At its core level, the purpose of our focus on corporate governance, and the guidelines themselves, is to align the focus of our Board and management with the interests of our stockholders. The Corporate Governance Guidelines set forth, among other things, the practices and procedures that our Board and its committees follow with respect to board and committee qualification and composition, board and committee meetings, chief executive officer evaluation and succession planning and compensation of non-employee directors. A copy of our Corporate Governance Guidelines is available on the Investor Relations section of our website at http://ir.comverge.com.

Code of Ethics

We adopted a Code of Ethics that is applicable to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer. The Code of Ethics is available on the Investor Relations section of our website at http://ir.comverge.com. If we make any amendments to our Code of Ethics other than technical, administrative, or their non-substantive amendments, or grant any waivers, including implicit waivers, from a provision of this Code of Ethics to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or Principal Accounting Officer, we will disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver, its effective date, and to whom it applies, on the Investor Relations section of our website at http://ir.comverge.com or in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC. There were no waivers of the Code of Ethics during 2011.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We have also adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to all officers, directors and employees of Comverge as required by the Nasdaq Listing Standards. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics includes an enforcement mechanism, and any waivers for directors or executive officers must be approved by our Board and disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K within four days. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available on the investor relations section of our website at http://ir.comverge.com. There were no waivers of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics during 2011.

Oversight of Risk Management

Our Audit Committee and our Board of Directors monitor our enterprise risk management framework and regularly reviews our risk management methodologies, standards and tolerances. In addition, the Audit Committee oversees the Company’s major risk exposures, including financial risk and reviews the steps that management has taken to monitor and control such exposures. Our risk governance structure is also complemented by our Internal Audit department. Our internal auditor is an independent function that assesses the adequacy and effectiveness of our internal control systems, and also coordinates risk-based audits and compliance reviews to evaluate and address risk within specific areas of our business. At least quarterly, internal audit provides updates on risk assessment and risk management policies to the Audit Committee and/or Board of Directors.

Enterprise Risk Management. In addition, in fiscal year 2010, our Board of Directors approved an enterprise risk management program that includes a framework geared towards addressing the Company’s major risk exposures, including financial, operational, reporting and compliance risks. We are in the process of implementing the program on a company-wide basis, including identifying specific risk owners and identifying risk mitigation plans and due dates for completion. Our implementation process includes assessing, prioritizing, monitoring and reviewing each risk profile regularly for high risk exposures and periodically for low risk exposures.

14

Risk Management Related to Compensation Policies and Practices. We do not believe that our compensation policies and practices encourage excessive and unnecessary risk-taking. Furthermore, we believe that the level of risk that such policies and practices do encourage is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. Our design of compensation policies and practices encourages employees to remain focused on both our short and long-term goals. In addition, our executives’ base salaries are fixed in amount and thus do not encourage risk-taking and our incentive eligibility and payments are tied to overall Company performance based on pre-established goals. In general, we have discretion to reduce incentive payments (or pay no incentive) based on individual performance and any other factors we may determine to be appropriate in the circumstances. Similarly, as with the compensation of our executive officers, a substantial portion of their compensation generally is delivered in the form of equity awards that help further align the interests of the Company and employees with those of our stockholders. Furthermore, while our cash incentive plans measure performance on an annual basis, our equity awards typically vest over a number of years, which the Company and Board of Directors believes encourages employees to focus on appreciating our stock price, thus limiting the potential value of excessive risk-taking. Our Compensation Committee also believes that the design of our annual cash and long-term equity incentives provides an effective and appropriate mix of incentives to help ensure the Company’s performance is focused on long-term stockholder value creation and does not encourage the taking of short-term risks at the expense of long-term results.

Stockholder Communications with the Board of Directors

Stockholders wishing to communicate with the Board of Directors should send any communication to the Secretary at our principal executive office. Any such communication must state the number of shares beneficially owned by the stockholder making the communication. The Secretary will forward such communication to the Chairman or to directors to whom the communication is directed, unless the Secretary determines that the communication does not relate to the business or affairs of the Company or the functioning or constitution of the Board or any of its committees, relates to routine or insignificant matters that do not warrant the attention of the Board, is an advertisement or other commercial solicitation or communication, is frivolous or offensive, or is otherwise not appropriate for delivery to directors. The director or directors who receive any such communication will have discretion to determine whether the subject matter of the communication should be brought to the attention of the full Board or one or more of its committees and whether any response to the person sending the communication is appropriate. Any such response will be made through the Secretary and only in accordance with our policies and procedures and applicable law and regulations relating to the disclosure of information.

Item 11. Executive Compensation

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

Since our initial public offering in April 2007, our compensation programs have been and continue to be designed to play a core role in maintaining our leadership position in the intelligent energy solutions markets we serve and enabling us to attract and retain employees by rewarding our employees for successful execution of our business strategies. Our goals are to expand the market for intelligent energy solutions and to further penetrate those markets, develop new distribution channels for our products, continue to be a leader in our sector and to generally grow our business and stockholder value, through attracting and retaining exceptional employees.

In 2011, we continued our evolution of streamlining the Company by focusing on integration and reorganization of our four main core competencies: (1) Development; (2) Sales; (3) Delivery and (4) Support. In addition, on May 31, 2011, we appointed Mr. David Mathieson as our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer in charge of our Finance department. We also appointed Mr. Steven Moffitt as our Chief Operating Officer to lead our hardware and software development solutions and operations. In addition, in 2011, our Chief Technology Officer, Mr. Arthur Vos, was responsible for the development of our proprietary software, IntelliSource and was also appointed as our Senior Vice President of Utility Sales, responsible for running the utility sales team, sales positioning and key account strategy. On April 7, 2012, Mr. Vos submitted his resignation and will remain in the Company’s employ until May 14, 2012. Mr. Matthew Smith, Senior Vice President and General Counsel is in charge of our Legal and Regulatory support function.

For fiscal year 2011, our named executive officers were Mr. R. Blake Young, our President and Chief Executive Officer; Mr. David Mathieson, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; Mr. Steven Moffitt, our Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer; Mr. Matthew Smith, our Senior Vice President and General Counsel and Mr. Arthur Vos, our Senior Vice President of Utility Sales and Chief Technology Officer. In addition, information is included for Mr. Michael Picchi, former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and Mr. Christopher Camino, our former Executive Vice President of Sales and Chief Marketing Officer, both of whom served in such respective capacity during the fiscal year. Mr. Picchi served as our principal financial officer during fiscal year 2011 before he left the Company on July 13, 2011. Mr. Camino left the Company effective December 31, 2011, and would have been a named executive officer under the rules and regulations of the SEC but for the fact that he was not serving as an executive officer of the registrant at the end of fiscal year 2011. Mr. Vos tendered his resignation on April 7, 2012, and will remain employed by the Company until May 14, 2012.

Comparative Framework

We, with the assistance of our compensation consultant, Pearl Meyer & Partners LLC (“PM&P”) reviewed relevant market and industry practices at least annually in an attempt to design and offer compensation packages that are competitive with our competitors for talent. It is our goal to properly balance our need to compete for qualified individuals with our responsibility to maintain a reasonable cost structure with respect to compensation.

To compare our executive compensation program with market practices, in 2011, our Compensation Committee reviewed benchmarking data provided to them by PM&P, the Compensation Committee’s compensation consultant. PM&P derived the benchmarking data from the peer group, as described below, and from compensation surveys. As such, for fiscal year 2011, our peer group included five companies that normally directly compete against the Company and/or were of the same general revenue size as well as nine broader industry reference companies:

Direct Company Peer Group

•      PowerSecure International, Inc.

•      EnerNoc, Inc.

General Industry Peer Group

•      ESCO Technologies, Inc.

•      First Solar, Inc.

16

•      EnergyConnect Group, Inc.

•      Cooper Industries Plc

•      Lime Energy Company

•      Energy Conversion Devices, Inc.

•      Echelon Corporation

•      Evergreen Solar, Inc.

•      Fuel Cell Energy, Inc.

•      Orion Energy Systems, Inc.

•      Itron, Inc.

•      A123 Systems Inc.

During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Compensation Committee requested a review of the appropriateness of the Company’s peer group as a matter of normal course and in consideration of comments received from stockholder activists. In determining the new peer group, PM&P recommended, with input from our executive officers and our Board, a list of companies to the Compensation Committee. The companies selected in the new 2012 compensation peer group are generally comparable in size to the Company with respect to revenues, market capitalization, businesses and/or number of employees. For fiscal year 2012, our new peer group will again include five companies that normally directly compete against the Company and/or are of the same general revenue size, as well as six broader industry reference companies as follows:

Direct Company Peer Group

•      PowerSecure International, Inc.

•      EnerNoc, Inc.

•      EnergyConnect Group, Inc.

•      Digi International

•      Lime Energy Company

General Industry Peer Group

•      A123 Systems, Inc.

•      ESCO Technologies, Inc.

•      Energy Conversion Devices, Inc.

•      Echelon Corporation

•      Fuel Cell Energy, Inc.

•      Orion Energy Systems, Inc.

The Committee reviews the peer group annually and adjusts it as needed to ensure the peer group continues to be aligned on a size and business model basis.

The Compensation Committee uses peer data and general industry data as a reference to help evaluate the competitiveness of our compensation structure and the reasonableness of each named executive officer’s compensation in relation to their peers and each other. In keeping with our current philosophy, the 2011 compensation strategy was to target base salary and incentive compensation at the 50th percentile of our peer group and to target long-term incentive compensation at the 75th percentile. This strategy is based on our goals of incentivizing the executive group to create stockholder value and to perform above median levels.

Corporate Governance Related to Compensation Matters

Compensation Committee Authority

For fiscal 2011, executive officer compensation was administered by the Compensation Committee composed of three independent members of our Board of Directors: Ms. Nora Mead Brownell and Messrs Alec Dreyer and John T. McCarter. Ms. Brownell served as Compensation Committee chairperson from November 2010 until February 27, 2012. Mr. McCarter was appointed to the Committee in October 2010 when he joined the Board. Mr. Dreyer was appointed to the Compensation Committee in January 2008 when he joined the Board. Ms. Brownell and Messrs McCarter and Dreyer served on the Compensation Committee for the entire 2011 calendar year and approved the 2011 compensation arrangements described in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis. Effective February 27, 2012, the Compensation Committee was reconstituted to consist of Messrs Kuzma, Dreyer, McCarter and Jones. Our Board of Directors appoints the Compensation Committee membership and delegates to the Compensation Committee the direct responsibility for, among other matters:

• Approving in advance, the compensation and employment arrangements for our executive officers;

17

• Reviewing all of the compensation plans and select benefit-based plans and programs in which our executive officers participate; and

• Reviewing and recommending changes to all our equity-based plans to our Board of Directors as appropriate, subject to stockholder approval as required.

Our Board has determined that each committee member is independent under the listing standards of the Nasdaq Global Market, the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and the relevant securities laws, and that each member is an “outside director” as defined in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”). The Compensation Committee held 12 formal meetings in 2011. For fiscal 2012, the members of the Compensation Committee is composed of Messrs David Kuzma (Chair), Alec Dreyer, Larry Jones, and John McCarter.

Role of Compensation Consultants

Pursuant to its charter, the Compensation Committee is authorized to obtain, at Comverge’s expense, compensation surveys, reports on the design and implementation of compensation programs for directors, officers and employees, and other data and documentation as the Compensation Committee considers appropriate. In addition, the Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain and terminate any outside counsel or other experts or consultants engaged to assist it in the evaluation of compensation of our directors and executive officers, including the sole authority to approve such consultants’ fees and other retention terms.

The Compensation Committee retained the services of PM&P as its compensation consultant to assist the committee in the design, review and evaluation of our executive compensation arrangements for 2011. PM&P has not performed and does not currently provide any services to management. PM&P attends Compensation Committee meetings, at the Compensation Committee’s request, and meets with the Compensation Committee without management present. PM&P provides the Compensation Committee with third-party data analysis, advice and expertise on competitive practices and trends, executive compensation plan design, burn rate analysis, proposed executive and director compensation, and any other executive compensation related topics that need to be addressed from time to time. PM&P reports directly to the Compensation Committee and, as directed by the Compensation Committee, works with management and the Chairman of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee retains its authority over, and is solely responsible for all compensation decisions. In addition to information presented to the Compensation Committee by PM&P, the Compensation Committee considered the following factors, among other matters, in determining compensation levels for our executive officers:

• The qualifications, skills and experience level of the respective executive officer;

• The position, role and responsibility of the respective executive officer in the Company; and

• The general business and particular compensation experience and knowledge of the Compensation Committee’s members gained through their cumulative prior experience.

Role of Our Executive Officers in the Compensation Process

The Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Young, is involved in providing recommendations to the Compensation Committee in its evaluation and design of 2011 compensation programs for the Company’s executive officers, including the recommendation of individual compensation levels for executive officers other than himself. However, the Compensation Committee makes all final determinations with respect to Named Executive Officers’ compensation. Mr. Young attended portions of the majority of the Compensation Committee’s meetings. Mr. Young was not present during Compensation Committee executive sessions, or any deliberations and voting

18

pertaining to the determination of his own compensation. No other named executive officer assumed an active role in the evaluation, design or administration of 2011 executive officer compensation programs. The Compensation Committee met in executive session with all non-employee directors at each of its 2011 meetings.

Executive Officer Compensation Strategy and Philosophy

The Company’s executive officer compensation strategy has been designed to attract and retain highly qualified executive officers and to align their interests with those of its stockholders by linking significant components of executive officer compensation with the achievement of specific business and strategic objectives and the Company’s overall financial performance, including revenue achievement, net increase in megawatts and the achievement of net income. The Company seeks to employ executive officers who are entrepreneurially driven, and accordingly, the Company offers a compensation package that provides a substantial part of compensation in the form of equity incentives and is market competitive.

The Company’s compensation programs are designed based on the Company’s view that total compensation of its executive officers should consist of the following components:

• Base salaries;

• Annual cash incentive awards;

• Long-term equity incentive compensation; and

• Benefits and perquisites.

The Company considers long-term equity incentive compensation to be the most important element of its compensation program for executive officers. The Company recognizes that its stockholders expect the Company’s executive management team to not only increase the enterprise value of the Company, but also to grow the Company’s business in a manner that is consistent with its stated business strategy. The Company believes that meaningful equity participation by each executive officer is the primary motivating factor that aligns the interest of the executive officers with those of the Company’s stockholders and will result in significant increases in value and growth. It is on the basis of this belief that the Compensation Committee of the Board has made awards of stock options and restricted stock to the Company’s executive officers.

It is the Company’s philosophy that optimal alignment between stockholders and named executive officers is best achieved by providing a greater emphasis on total compensation in the form of equity grants and performance based cash compensation rather than cash based salary. Accordingly, the Company has designed total compensation programs for its executive officers that provide base compensation levels, annual cash incentive award opportunities and long-term incentive compensation awards that will further this philosophy, and that are economically comparable to programs available for comparable executive officers in companies in the Company’s peer group. As discussed above, the Compensation Committee has adopted a compensation philosophy, based in part on the analysis provided by PM&P, which targets the cash components of the Company’s executive officer compensation at the 50th percentile of those that may be offered by the Company’s peer companies that are similarly situated to the Company, and that targets the long-term equity component of the Company’s executive officer compensation at the 75th percentile of similar companies.

The Company’s fiscal 2011 incentive compensation program elements were primarily structured to reward its executive officers for achieving certain financial and business objectives, consisting of the following metrics: (i) revenue, (ii) net increase in megawatts and in open market programs, and (iii) net income. However, the Board exercised its discretion and did not award any cash incentives under the 2011 incentive compensation program.

The Company believes that the attainment of these specific financial objectives assists the Company in fulfilling its strategic objectives, which are:

• To increase stockholder value; and

• To grow the Company in an efficient manner.

Consideration of 2011 Say-on-Pay Vote

In 2011, the Company provided stockholders a “say-on-pay” advisory vote on its executive compensation at its 2011 Annual Stockholder Meeting, and the stockholders expressed substantial support for the compensation of its named executive officers, with approximately 93.3% of the votes cast for approval of the “say-on-pay” advisory vote. The Compensation Committee took into account the affirmative stockholder advisory vote on executive compensation at the 2011 Annual Meeting and incorporated that as one of many factors it considered in connection with the discharge of its responsibilities. Because a substantial majority (93.3%) of our stockholders approved the compensation program described in the proxy statement for the 2011 Annual Meeting, the Compensation Committee did not implement changes to our executive compensation program as a result of the stockholder advisory vote.

The Company and the Compensation Committee of the Board value the input of our stockholders on our executive compensation. We regularly communicate with our stockholders to better understand their opinions on our business strategy and objectives, as well as matters of investor interest or concern, such as executive compensation. The Compensation Committee carefully considers this feedback as part of its annual review of our compensation for our executive officers. In addition, stockholders are invited to express their views to the Compensation Committee as described under the heading “Communications with the Board” in the “Election of Directors” section of this proxy statement. Finally, the stockholders’ advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers provides stockholders with an opportunity to communicate their views on our executive compensation policies and practices under our executive compensation program.

Long-term Incentive Compensation

We currently administer long-term incentive compensation awards through our Amended and Restated 2006 Comverge Long-term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”) which was amended and restated in March 2010 and approved by our stockholders at the 2010 annual meeting. Our Board believes that components of the LTIP are an integral part of Comverge’s long-term compensation philosophy. The purpose of the LTIP is to promote the interests of the Company and our stockholders by encouraging our employees, non-employee directors and other service providers to acquire or increase their equity interest in the Company, thereby encouraging them to work toward our continued growth and success. The LTIP Plan permits awards of stock options, restricted stock, performance based stock and options and other forms of equity compensation.

Historically, we awarded non-statutory stock options as the primary form of equity compensation. We have also made use of restricted stock grants. We have generally considered and made equity awards in the following circumstances:

• Upon the material contribution of an executive or employee in the completion of a significant transaction outside the scope of the annual incentive plan; and

• Following significant equity financings after considering the impact of dilution on our stockholders.

Stock option and restricted stock awards that we have granted have vested upon both performance-based and time-based measures. Performance-based awards are forfeitable if specified performance targets are not achieved within a specified period of time. Time-based awards vest in accordance with vesting schedules determined and approved by our Compensation Committee.

20

Stock Option Practices

All stock option grants to our employees, including members of executive management, are approved at regularly scheduled or telephonic meetings by our Compensation Committee which consists solely of independent directors. We have awarded all stock options to purchase our common stock to executive officers at or above the fair market value of our common stock on the grant date. We have not back-dated any option awards which is prohibited under the LTIP. Since we have been a public company, our policy has been to grant options at our closing prices of our common stock as quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market on the date of grant.

For equity award practices adopted for fiscal 2012, see the section entitled “Long-term Incentive Compensation for 2012” in this section below.

Components of Compensation

Base Salaries

The base salaries of our named executive officers are reviewed on an annual basis, as well as at the time of a promotion or other material change in responsibilities. Adjustments in base salaries are based on an evaluation of individual performance, our company-wide performance and the individual executive’s contribution to our performance overall. In 2011, our Compensation Committee:

• Reviewed 2011 base salaries in comparison to the market median, or the 50th percentile, based on peer group compensation survey levels as determined by the compensation consultant we engaged; and

• Established base salaries as of December 31, 2011, for Messrs Young, Mathieson, Moffitt, Smith, Vos, Picchi and Camino as follows:

⁴  Mr. Camino left the Company effective December 31, 2011.

2011 Executive Officer Incentive Plan

Our named executive officers participated in our executive officer’s individual 2011 Incentive Plan. The incentive plan consisted of two components: a cash incentive award and a long term incentive equity award. Incentive targets were calculated as a percentage of the participant’s base salary, with performance goals that provided for a range of payments beginning with no incentive below a threshold performance level, a target level and a maximum level. The following table summarizes, for each named executive officer, the threshold, target and maximum incentive award potential for his 2011 Incentive Plan.

The purpose of the 2011 Incentive Plan was designed to create financial incentives that were aligned with the overriding objective of increasing stockholder value. The 2011 equity incentive awards were partially earned based on the achievement of defined financial targets and specific non-financial objectives established for each of our named executive officers. No cash incentive e for was awarded to any employee for the 2011 Incentive Plan.

For fiscal year 2011, financial objectives established for the Company included the achievement of specified threshold, target and maximum levels of company-wide goals for: (i) revenue, (ii) net increases in new megawatts, and (iii) net income. These metrics and the associated performance levels that were established represented the factors that the Compensation Committee deemed most important and which, if achieved, would likely result in an increase in stockholder value. The specific performance levels were determined with reference to our 2011 budget, which we used to manage our day-to-day business and were determined by our Board of Directors as representing an aggressive level of growth and financial performance for us in 2011. In turn, the target levels were designed to be obtainable with stretch performance.

The following table summarizes, for each named executive officer, the percentage weighting of Company incentive goal for the 2011 Incentive Plan.

Names Executive Officer	Revenue  (1)			Net Increase in New MW (2)			Net Income  (3)			Total

Amounts Earned under 2011 Executive Officer Incentive Plan

On March 8, 2012, the Compensation Committee with the agreement of the entire Board of Directors, approved incentive equity awards with respect to the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. The Board exercised its discretion and did not award any cash incentives under the 2011 incentive compensation program. The recipients of these annual incentives included the named executive officers set forth below for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

After reviewing the Company’s financial performance for fiscal 2011 and evaluating the long-term incentive targets previously established for the Company’s executive management under the 2011 annual incentive plan by the Compensation Committee, the Compensation Committee with the agreement of the entire Board, approved annual equity incentive awards for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, to various executives, including the executive officers listed below in the amounts set forth below opposite such individual’s name. However, the Compensation Committee with the agreement of the entire Board, exercised its discretion and did not award any cash incentives under the 2011 incentive compensation program, only awarding equity incentive awards in the form of grants of restricted stock. In approving the long-term incentive awards, the Compensation Committee and the Board considered the fact that for fiscal 2011, the Company’s executive management executed on the Company’s business plan and strategic initiatives and met their threshold objectives on two out of three goals.

The equity awards represented in the table below are formulaic in nature. Such formulas and 2011 Performance Metrics were approved by the Compensation Committee with the agreement of the entire Board on March 8, 2012. In addition, due to a declining stock price, the Committee applied reductions to the executives’ long-term incentive targets ranging from 0% to 65%. Further, the Committee used the closing price on March 3, 2011 of $5.55 (the date on which the 2011 annual and long-term incentive plans were approved by the Committee) for determining the number of restricted shares to grant, which had the effect of reducing the overall number of restricted shares awarded to the executives rather than using the share price on the date of grant as was previously disclosed in the terms of the 2011 annual incentive plan. The new long-term incentive targets were recommended by the Company’s external compensation consultant and were designed to bring the long-term incentive targets for executives in line with the market, as well as the Company’s stated compensation philosophy. The Compensation Committee also utilized the new target levels to calculate the 2011 equity awards.

			Long-term Incentive as a % of Base Salary
Named Executive Officer	Base Salary		Old Target			New Target
R. Blake Young	$	480,000		300	%		300	%
David Mathieson	$	325,000		150	%		120	%
Steven Moffitt	$	350,000		150	%		120	%
Matthew H. Smith	$	225,000		150	%		120	%
Arthur Vos IV*	$	240,000		175	%		120	%

* Mr. Vos tendered his resignation on April 7, 2012 and will remain employed by the Company until May 14, 2012.

23

Based on the new targets, the long-term incentive awards consisted solely of payments of grants of restricted stock as indicated below with respect to the Company’s named executive officers.

2012 Retention Award Program

Also on March 8, 2012, the Compensation Committee with the agreement of the entire Board of Directors, approved a 2012 retention award program to retain executives and certain other employees of the Company. Awards under this 2012 retention award program will be paid quarterly over the course of 2012 and includes customary acceleration and change-in-control provisions. Awards under this 2012 retention award program to the Company’s named executive officers consisted of the following cash amounts:

Named Executive Officer	Position	2012 Retention Award*		Restricted Stock Award (Shares)**
R. Blake Young	President and Chief Executive Officer	$	242,000		180,000
David Mathieson1	Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer	$	60,700		48,000
Steven Moffitt	Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer	$	119,500		54,000
Matthew H. Smith	Senior Vice President and General Counsel	$	64,600		21,000
Arthur Vos IV2	Senior Vice President of Utility Sales and Chief Technology Officer	$	230,000		49,000
Michael Picchi3	Former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer	$	—	$	—
Christopher Camino4	Former Executive Vice President of Sales, Chief Marketing Officer	$	—	$	—

¹  Mr. Mathieson joined the Company in May 2011.

² Mr. Vos was appointed Senior Vice President of Utility Sales and Chief Technology Officer in fiscal 2011. Mr. Vos tendered his resignation on April 7, 2012 and will remain employed by the Company until May 14, 2012.

³  Mr. Picchi left the Company on July 13, 2011.

⁴ Mr. Camino left the Company effective December 31, 2011.

* To be paid in four equal quarterly installments in 2012.

** Each award of restricted stock is subject to a repurchase right in favor of the Company. If the shares are not vested in accordance with the vesting schedule, they lapse and are therefore forfeited back to the Company. With continued service to the Company, all of the shares of restricted stock set forth above shall vest, and the repurchase right shall lapse with respect to such shares, on March 8, 2015.

Perquisites and Benefits

As described more fully below, there were no reportable perquisites provided to our named executive officers in fiscal year 2011. The total amount of these perquisites is included in the “All Other Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table below.

We also maintain employee benefit plans that provide our employees with the opportunity to enroll in our health, dental, vision, life insurance plans, and other voluntary benefits. Each of these benefit plans requires the employee to pay a portion of the premium, with the Company paying the remainder. These benefits are offered on the same basis to all employees, including our named executive officers. We also maintain a 401(k) retirement plan that is available to all full-time U.S. employees, including our named executive officers. In 2011, we matched employee participant contributions at a rate of one-half of one percent (0.5%) up to the first six percent (6%) contributed.

24

Stock Ownership Requirements

In fiscal 2011, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board adopted new stock ownership guidelines for our directors and executive officers that took effect on August 17, 2011. These guidelines establish minimum ownership requirements of our common stock by our directors and executive officers and bring it in line with current marketplace practices. The current targeted stock ownership requirements for our named executive officers were established as a multiple of base salary converted using an average stock price over the 12 months prior to the date they become subject to the guidelines. These multiples may be adjusted annually based on the Compensation Committee’s review of competitive compensation data. For 2011, the multiples for targeted stock ownership requirements for our named executive officers were as follows:

Name	Position	Incentive Equity Target
R. Blake Young	President and Chief Executive Officer	5 times annual base salary
David Mathieson	Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer	3 times annual base salary
Steven Moffitt	Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer	3 times annual base salary
Matthew H. Smith	Senior Vice President and General Counsel	2 times annual base salary
Arthur Vos IV1	Senior Vice President of Utility Sales/ Chief Technology Officer	2 times annual base salary
Michael Picchi 2	Former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer	N/A
Christopher Camino 3	Former Executive Vice President of Sales/ Chief Marketing Officer	N/A

¹  Mr. Vos tendered his resignation on April 7, 2012 and will remain employed by the Company until May 14, 2012.

² Mr. Picchi left the Company on July 13, 2011.

³  Mr. Camino left the Company effective December 31, 2011.

The Compensation Committee believes that the above target guidelines are more robust than prior guidelines and properly align our executive officers with our shareholders. As currently established at December 30, 2011, none of our named executive officers have achieved the new stock ownership guidelines, due to our declining stock price. In addition, each named executive officer has five years from the date they become subject to the guidelines to meet the guidelines. If not in compliance after the initial compliance period, executives are prohibited from disposing of any shares until achievement of the guidelines. Failure to meet or to show sustained progress toward meeting the guidelines may result in a deduction in, or elimination of, future long-term incentive grants and also may result in a requirement to retain all stock attained through company grants of equity. Stock that counts towards satisfaction of the current stock ownership guidelines includes:

• Shares acquired upon stock option exercises;

• Shares owned outright by the executive;

• Restricted shares issued to the executive, whether or not vested, assuming the restriction is based on time-based vesting, i.e., performance-based vesting is not included;

• Shares attributable to an executive’s vested account balance in any savings or retirement plan, deferred compensation plan, etc.; and

• Shares owned directly through a brokerage account, including restricted shares but excluding restricted shares that are subject to achievement of performance goals;

Compensation Committee Evaluation of Executive Officer Compensation Policies to be applied in 2012

Senior leadership and human resources developed a pay for performance structure and presented it to the Compensation Committee for a preliminary discussion in December 2011. Management gained permission to complete the design and present it at the next scheduled Compensation Committee meeting. The 2012 annual incentive plan is anticipated to reward cost conservation and profitability achievements.

In connection with this evaluation, in the Fall of 2011, the Compensation Committee retained PM&P as its consultant to prepare an extensive executive officer compensation study that included an analysis of compensation levels at public companies in the same or similar industries and a review of our existing salaries, annual incentive programs and long-term incentive plans for our executive officers. PM&P also worked with the Compensation Committee to provide guidance on recommendations with respect to elements of compensation changes for our executive officers for 2012. After review and discussion of the benchmarking study results, the Compensation Committee approved compensation components, addressing base salaries and equity incentive targets with respect to our executive officers, including our named executive officers.

The 2012 compensation components were approved as follows:

Base Salaries

2012 base salaries for Messrs Young, Mathieson, Moffitt, Smith and Vos will remain the same and are as follows: $480,000, $325,000, $350,000, $225,000 and $240,000, respectively. Mr. Vos submitted his resignation on April 7, 2012, and will remain employed by the Company until May 14, 2012.

Long-Term Equity Awards

The strategy utilized for establishing the potential long term equity awards in 2012 was that each executive officer’s performance targets would be set at the 75th percentile of our peer group, and with the total direct compensation set between the 50th and the 75th percentile, if all objectives are met.

The following table summarizes the potential long-term equity awards under the Company’s 2012 annual incentive plan for each named executive officer as a percentage of base salary. The new target levels were also used to calculate the 2011 equity awards.

Named Executive Officer	Old Target			New Target
R. Blake Young		300	%		300	%
David Mathieson		150	%		120	%
Steven Moffitt		150	%		120	%
Matthew H. Smith		150	%		120	%
Arthur Vos IV *		175	%		120	%

* Mr. Vos tendered his resignation on April 7, 2012 and will remain employed by the Company until May 14, 2012.

Tax Implications of Executive Compensation

Our aggregate deductions for each named executive officer compensation are potentially limited by Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent the aggregate amount paid to an executive officer exceeds $1.0 million, unless it is paid under a predetermined objective performance plan meeting certain requirements, or satisfies one of various other exceptions specified in the Internal Revenue Code. We do not believe that Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code would be applicable, and accordingly, our Compensation Committee did not consider its impact in determining compensation levels for our named executive officers in 2011.

Employment Agreements

Employment Agreement with CEO

On February 18, 2010, the Board of Directors appointed R. Blake Young as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. We entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Young in connection with his appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer. The agreement was effective as of February 18, 2010 and has a three year term, unless earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of the agreement. Mr. Young’s employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of $450,000. For 2012, Mr. Young’s base salary was established at $480,000, as approved by the Compensation Committee. Mr. Young will also have the opportunity to earn annual cash incentives and equity awards based on his achievement of performance criteria established by the Compensation Committee of the Board. In addition, Mr. Young may also participate in any benefit programs generally applicable to other employees of the Company. Mr. Young may terminate his employment at any time, upon providing thirty (30) days advance notice, either with or without Good Reason (as defined in the employment agreement). The Company has the right to terminate Mr. Young’s employment agreement with or without Cause (as defined in the employment agreement) and upon the occurrence of a Change-of-Control (as defined in the employment agreement). See the section entitled “Severance and Change-of-Control Payments” as contained in this proxy statement. The agreement contains confidentiality, non-solicitation, and non-compete provisions, similar to those found in the agreements with other executive officers.

Employment Agreements with Other Named Executive Officers

In 2011, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Mathieson upon his joining the Company. In 2010, we entered in employment agreements with Messrs. Camino and Moffitt upon their joining the Company. In addition, in 2009 we entered into employment agreements with Messrs Picchi, and Vos, which agreements were amended in September 2010 to bring them more in line with the agreements of other named executive officers. Each named executive officer’s agreements automatically renew for subsequent three-year terms accordingly, unless we or the named executive officer provides written notice within 90 days prior to the completion of the then-current term. Mr. Picchi left the Company on July 13, 2011. Mr. Camino left the Company effective December 31, 2011.

Base Salaries

The current Employment Agreements provide that Messrs Young, Mathieson, Moffitt, Smith and Vos receive an annual base salary of $480,000, $325,000, $350,000, $225,000 and $240,000, respectively. The agreements provide that each such executive officer is entitled to participate in equity and non-equity incentive programs that we may establish from time to time. Mr. Vos submitted his resignation on April 7, 2012.

Intellectual Property and Non-Compete Clauses

The employment agreements with each of Messrs Young, Mathieson, Moffitt, Smith and Vos require that the executive officer promptly disclose and assign any individual rights that he may have in any intellectual property (including inventions, concepts, designs, business opportunities, formulas, etc.) to us. Under a non-compete provision, the executive officers are prohibited from engaging in certain conduct for at least one year after the date of his termination. During this time, these executive officers are not permitted to solicit or sell products to any of our past or present customers, induce any customer to cease doing business with us, call on any of our employees with the intent of enticing them away from employment with us or enter into any business entity or venture that sells products or services that compete with, or are similar to, our products or services.

Severance and Change-of-Control Payments

Under the terms of our employment agreements with Messrs Young, Mathieson, Moffitt, Smith and Vos, we may be obligated to make severance payments following the termination of their employment. These benefits are described below under “Potential Post-Employment Payments and Payments on a Change-of-Control.”

In the event that any payments to which Messrs. Young, Mathieson, Moffitt, Smith and Vos become entitled would be deemed to constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, then such payments will be subject to reduction to the extent necessary to ensure that the executive officers receive only the greater benefit of receiving the amount of those payments which would constitute such a parachute payment or the amount which yields the executive officer the greatest after-tax amount of benefits after taking into account any excise tax imposed on the payments provided to the executive officer pursuant to the agreement (or on any other benefits to which the executive officer may be entitled in connection with a change-of-control or the subsequent termination of service) under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code.

(1) Under the terms of his employment agreement, Mr. Young is entitled to (i) any unpaid but earned salary, medical benefits, vested stock options and vested restricted stock if he is terminated for cause or for good reason. In addition, Mr. Young is also entitled to severance payments equal to two times his annual base salary if he is terminated without cause or for good reason and three times his annual base salary plus three times his target cash incentive if he is terminated within 24 months following a change-of-control. The severance payment was based on his annual base salary as of December 31, 2011. Under their respective employment agreements, Messrs Mathieson, Moffitt, Smith and Vos are each entitled to severance payments equal to 9 to 12 months of their annual base salary if they are terminated without cause or for good reason and 9 to 18 months of their annual base salary if they are terminated within 12 months following a change-of-control. Amounts payable in each case were estimated based on their annual base salaries as of December 31, 2011.

31

(2) Mr. Young is also entitled to severance bonus payments equal to two times his annual base salary if he is terminated without cause or for good reason and three times his annual base salary plus three times his target cash incentive if he is terminated within 24 months following a change-of-control. The other listed executives, except Mr. Young, are entitled to severance bonus payments equal to their pro-rated prior year’s cash incentive payments if their employment is terminated without cause or for good reason prior to a change-of-control or 0.75 times to 1.5 times due to a change in control. The severance bonus payments were estimated by utilizing the actual cash award based on performance in 2010, and with the assumption that the executive was terminated on December 31, 2011.

(3) In the case of Mr. Young, he is entitled to payment of his health benefits pursuant to the applicable severance period for up to 18 months. Thereafter, the Company is required to pay Mr. Young a lump sum equal to six months of the employer portion of the premiums for such health benefits. In the case of the all other listed executives, each is entitled to payment of his/her health benefits for his/her applicable severance period. All executives are responsible for the portion of the benefits an active employee would pay.

(4) Upon a termination without cause or for good reason within 12 months after a change of control, the restricted stock held by Messrs. Young, Mathieson, Moffitt, Smith and Vos shall immediately vest, and any stock options held at the time of such termination shall immediately vest and become exercisable. These amounts represent restricted stock and in-the money stock options that vest upon such event, at an assumed value of $1.26 per share, the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2011. In addition, for each named executive officer, any termination by reason of death or disability shall not give rise to any severance payments, but all of his unvested stock options and restricted stock shall vest upon his death or disability as provided in, and subject to the provisions of the Company’s policies or applicable equity plans.

Severance Benefits

CEO

If the employment of Mr. Young is terminated by us for Cause or by Mr. Young without Good Reason, he shall not be entitled to any severance payments, but shall only be entitled (i) any unpaid, but earned salary, medical benefits, vested restricted stock and vested stock options, (ii) any unpaid but earned vacation in accordance with Company policy then in effect and (iii) any incurred but unpaid ordinary and necessary and documented business expenses. If Mr. Young’s employment is terminated without Cause or for Good Reason, Mr. Young will be entitled to (i) any unpaid but earned salary, medical benefits, vested stock options and vested restricted stock; (ii) any unpaid but earned vacation, (iii) any incurred but unpaid ordinary and necessary business expenses and (iv) severance pay equal to two times his annual base salary and target cash incentive. Provided however, if Mr. Young’s termination occurs concurrently with or within twenty-four (24) months following a Change-of-Control (as defined in the employment agreement), the severance pay will be equal to three times his annual base salary and target cash incentive for the last completed calendar year prior to such termination. In addition, Mr. Young is entitled to the continuation of benefits under our standard employee benefit plan during the period that they are entitled to receive severance payments.

Other Named Executive Officers

Under the employment agreements with each of Messrs Mathieson, Moffitt, Smith and Vos we may be obligated to make severance payments following the termination of each executive officer’s employment if we terminate him without cause or he terminates his employment for good reason, subject to certain cure periods. The amount that each named executive officer is entitled to receive upon a termination of his employment by us without cause or by the executive officer with good reason is based on the executive officer’s base salary at the time of termination and his incentive compensation. Under the severance provisions of each executive officer’s employment agreement, they are each entitled to severance pay in the amount of 12 months of annual base salary plus an amount equal to the pro-rated amount of his non-equity incentive compensation for the prior year. In addition, the executive officers are entitled to the continuation of benefits under our standard employee benefit plan during the period that they are entitled to receive severance payments. However, if the employment of Messrs. Mathieson, Moffitt, Smith and Vos is terminated by us for Cause or by the executive officer without Good Reason, we are not obligated to make any severance payments to the executive officer.

32

“Cause” is defined under each employment agreement as:

• the executive officer’s breach of a material provision of the agreement;

• the executive officer’s material breach of any of our written policies or procedures;

• the executive officer’s material non-compliance with a lawful direction given by our chief executive officer;

• the executive officer’s inability to perform his duties for an uninterrupted period of 180 days;

• fraud by the executive officer with respect to our business affairs;

• the executive officer’s commission or plea of no contest to a felony or crime involving moral turpitude; and

• alcohol abuse or illegal drug use by the executive officer.

“Good Reason” is defined under each employment agreement as:

• the reduction of the executive officer’s salary or other material component of compensation under the agreement without the executive officer’s prior written consent; or

• relocation of the executive officer to a location more than 75 miles from the location specified in his agreement without the executive officer’s prior written consent.

Change-of-Control Benefits

Pursuant to the employment agreements entered into with each of Messrs. Young, Mathieson, Moffitt, Smith and Vos, we may be required to make payments to them upon a change-of-control. A change-of-control will occur upon the occurrence of any of the following events that result in a majority of our Board of Directors prior to the event not constituting the majority of our Board of Directors immediately after the completion of the transaction:

• any person (as defined in Section 13(d) under the Exchange Act) becomes the beneficial owner of our securities (excluding those securities acquired directly from us or our affiliates) representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of our then outstanding voting securities;

• a merger or consolidation of us with any other corporation unless the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the transaction continue to represent (either by remaining outstanding or being converted into voting securities of another entity) more than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the surviving or parent company; or

• the consummation of an agreement for the sale or disposition by us of all or substantially all of our assets, other than to an entity where at least 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities are owned by our stockholders in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of us immediately prior to such sale.

If a termination without Cause or by the executive officer with Good Reason occurs within 12 months after the occurrence of a Change-of-Control, then the executive officer will be entitled to severance payments equal to 18 months of his base salary plus 150% of his prior year’s non-equity incentive award. In addition, each executive officer will immediately be vested in all unvested stock options upon a Change-of-Control.

401(k) Plan

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company maintains the Comverge, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the “401(k) Plan”).

We make contributions on behalf of eligible employees in an amount up to three percent (3%, through a 1/2% match for the first 6% of the employee’s contributions). All employee and employer contributions to the 401(k) Plan are 100% vested upon contribution. Distribution of accrued benefits normally can commence upon the participants reaching age 59 1/2 (or earlier if, upon the participant’s death or disability).

Indemnification Agreements

We have entered into indemnification agreements with all of our directors and executive officers under which we have agreed to indemnify such persons against all direct and indirect costs of any type or nature whatsoever (including attorneys’ fees) incurred as a result of the fact that such person, in his or her capacity as a director or officer, is made or threatened to be made a party to any suit or proceeding.

Agreement and Plan of Merger

On March 26, 2012, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, referred to as the Merger Agreement, with Peak Holding Corp., referred to as Parent, and Peak Merger Corp, a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent and referred to as the Purchaser. Parent is a subsidiary of H.I.G. Capital, LLC. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, among other things, the Purchaser commenced on April 11, 2012 a cash tender offer, referred to as the Offer, to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Comverge, which we refer to collectively as the Shares, at a price of $1.75 per share in cash, without interest, and less any required withholding taxes, referred to as the Offer Price.

The Purchaser’s obligation to accept for payment and pay for Shares tendered in the Offer is subject to certain conditions, including, among other things, a minimum number of Shares that must be tendered. The consummation of the Offer is not subject to any financing condition.

Following the completion of the Offer and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including, if required, approval by the stockholders of Comverge, the Purchaser will merge with and into Comverge, with Comverge surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. At the effective time of the merger, the Shares not purchased pursuant to the Offer, other than shares held by Comverge, Parent, Purchaser, any subsidiary of Parent or by stockholders of Comverge who have perfected their statutory rights of appraisal under Delaware law, will be converted into the right to receive $1.75 per share in cash, without interest, and less any required withholding taxes. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding option to purchase Shares will be deemed exercised and cancelled, with each former holder thereof receiving an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of the Offer Price over the exercise price thereof multiplied by the number of shares subject to such option.

Also, pursuant to the Merger Agreement and as disclosed in the Information Statement attached as Annex I to the Schedule 14D-9 filed with the SEC and dated April 12, 2012 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Schedule 14D-9”), subject to the requirements of Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14f-1 promulgated thereunder, upon the purchase by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer of such number of Shares as shall satisfy the Minimum Condition (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and from time to time thereafter, Purchaser is entitled to designate directors (the “Purchaser Designees”) to serve on the Board up to such number of directors equal to the product (rounded up to the next whole number) obtained by multiplying (x) the total number of directors on the Board (giving effect to any increase in the number of directors pursuant to the Merger Agreement) by (y) the percentage of the outstanding number of Shares (not determined on a fully diluted basis) beneficially owned by Purchaser and its affiliates. The Company has agreed, upon Purchaser’s exercise of such right, to take all such actions as necessary to cause Purchaser’s designees to be elected or designated to the Board at such time, including by increasing the size of the Board and seeking and accepting resignations from incumbent directors. The Company shall also cause, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), the directors elected or designated by Purchaser to the Board to serve on and constitute the same percentage of each committee of the Board as such directors represent on the Board. Additional information regarding the Purchaser Designees and the terms of the Merger Agreement are provided in the Schedule 14D-9 and the Information Statement attached as Annex I to the Schedule 14D-9.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our executive officers and directors, and any person or entity that owns more than ten percent of our common stock, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission certain reports of ownership and changes in ownership of our securities. Executive officers, directors and stockholders who hold more than ten percent of our outstanding common stock are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission to furnish us with copies of all required forms filed under Section 16(a). We prepare Section 16(a) forms on behalf of our executive officers and directors based on the information provided by them.

Based upon (i) the copies of Section 16(a) reports that we received with respect to reporting persons for their 2011 fiscal year transactions and (ii) the written representations received from one or more of such persons that no annual Form 5 reports were required to be filed for them for the 2011 fiscal year, we believe that there has been compliance with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to such officers, directors and ten-percent beneficial owners for such fiscal year, except that a Form 4 filed on behalf of a Board member, Joseph O’Donnell, was filed on February 1, 2011, instead of January 28, 2011.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

To compare our director compensation program with market practices, in 2011, our Compensation Committee reviewed benchmarking data provided to them by PM&P, the Committee’s compensation consultant. In late December 2011, the Compensation Committee requested a review of the Company’s peer group based on stockholders’ feedback. PM&P derived the benchmarking data from the new peer group, as described above. The companies selected in the new 2012 compensation peer group are generally comparable in size to Comverge with respect to revenues, market capitalization, businesses and/or number of employees. Based on the new peer group data and in accordance with the Board’s agreement with Ardsley, on March 7, 2012, the Committee adopted a new policy on board compensation. In accordance with this policy beginning in April 2012 non-employee directors receive an annual cash retainer of $40,000 (paid in quarterly installments) and an additional annual cash retainer of $10,000 (paid in quarterly installments) for each of the Compensation and Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee chair position held. In addition, the Audit Committee chair will receive an additional annual cash retainer of $20,000 and the Chairman of the Board position will receive an annual cash retainer of $30,000. The annual cash retainers are pro-rated contingent upon the effective date for newly appointed Board members and the number of meetings remaining in the fiscal year. We reimburse all of our directors for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred for attending meetings of our Board of Directors and committees. Directors who also served as employees of the Company received no additional compensation for serving on our Board of Directors. In addition, in fiscal year 2010, the Board adopted a director education policy to encourage continuing director education and which provides each director with a stipend of up to $2,500, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for attending board education and training programs annually.

Under our current director compensation policy as described above, grants of equity awards are made pursuant to a plan approved by our Board of Directors that provides that each non-employee director be awarded annual equity grants with an estimated aggregate value of $85,000 in the form of restricted common stock. The restricted stock is awarded on the date of our annual stockholders’ meeting, except for a director whose term is expiring and is not standing for re-election. The number of shares of restricted common stock granted is determined by dividing $85,000 by the volume-weighted average stock price in the last sixty days of trading of the Company’s common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Market on the date of grant. The restricted stock typically vest in one fourth increments per quarter over one year. The Board has not granted any awards to non-employee directors and in light of the Merger with HIG Capital, does not currently intend to grant any such awards to non-employee directors in fiscal 2012.

In addition to the above, under current director compensation policy as described above, for each new director appointed or elected to our Board of Directors, a one-time equity grant of restricted common stock and/or options to purchase our common stock is awarded with an estimated aggregate value of $80,000, with the number of shares determined based on the volume-weighted average price of our common stock as quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market over the last 60 days prior to the director’s appointment or election. This one-time equity grant is made on the date of the new director’s election or appointment to our Board. As part of the agreement with Ardsley, on February 27, 2012, the Board appointed three directors nominated by Ardsley, temporarily increasing the size of the Board from eight to ten directors. Immediately following the 2012 Annual Meeting, the Board will decrease in size to a total of 9 members. The reconstituted Board includes three new members: David R. Kuzma; James J. Moore; and Rudolf J. Hoefling. Former Board member, Mr. Scott Ungerer stepped down from the Board, and Joseph O’Donnell notified the Board that he does not intend to stand for re-election at the 2012 Annual Meeting. Also under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Kuzma joined the Board’s Compensation Committee as its Chairman, Mr. Moore joined the Board’s Nominating and Corporate Governance and Strategy Committees and Mr. Hoefling joined the Board’s Audit and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees.

Stock Ownership Requirements

In 2011, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee undertook a review and revision of the stock ownership guidelines to bring it in line with current marketplace practice. The Committee revised the guidelines effective August 17, 201. However, as currently established at December 31, 2011, the multiple for targeted stock ownership requirements under our new stock ownership guidelines for our directors is three times annual cash retainer. Based on the new guidelines, at December 31, 2011, none of our directors have achieved the stock ownership guidelines due to a declining stock price. Each director has five years from the date they become subject to the guidelines to meet the guidelines. Stock that counts towards satisfaction of the guidelines includes the following:

• Shares acquired upon stock option exercises;

• Shares owned outright by the executive;

• Restricted shares issued to the executive, whether or not vested, assuming the restriction is based on time-based vesting, i.e., performance-based vesting is not included;

42

• Shares attributable to an executive’s vested account balance in any savings or retirement plan, deferred compensation plan, etc.; and

• Shares owned directly through a brokerage account, including restricted shares but excluding restricted shares that are subject to achievement of performance goals;

Until in compliance with the guidelines, directors are prohibited from disposing of their shares except for purposes of offsetting taxes. In addition, if not in compliance after the initial compliance period, directors shall receive up to fifty percent (50%) of their cash retainer in the form of equity to count towards achieving the guidelines.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

The Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics requires that all employees and directors avoid conflicts of interest that interfere with the performance of their duties or are not in the best interests of the Company.

In addition, pursuant to its written charter, the Audit Committee reviews and approves all related party transactions between the Company, its executive officers and directors, beneficial owners of five percent or greater of the Company’s securities, and all other related persons as specified under Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC after examining each such transaction for potential conflicts of interests and other improprieties.

Transactions with Related Persons

The Company did not enter into any related party transactions during fiscal year 2011.

Independence of Directors

As required under the listing standards of the Nasdaq Global Market, on which our common stock is listed, a majority of the members of our Board of Directors qualify as “independent,” as affirmatively determined by our Board. In addition, we impose additional tests of independence with respect to members of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors that are consistent with the Nasdaq Global Market listing standards and with applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. Our Board of Directors consults with our in-house and outside legal counsel to ensure that the Board’s determinations are consistent with listing standards, SEC rules and relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the definition of “independent.” Consistent with these considerations, and after reviewing all relevant transactions or relationships between each director, or any of their family members, and us, our senior management and our independent auditors, of which there were none that were disclosed, our Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that all of our directors, other than Mr. Young, are independent directors, including the other nominees for election, within the meaning of the applicable Nasdaq Global Market Listing Standards.
