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

(e)

On November 19, 2007, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors of CMGI, Inc. (“CMGI”) approved the CMGI FY 2008 Executive Management Incentive Plan (the “Bonus Plan”). The Bonus Plan is designed to recognize and reward the achievement of financial, business and management goals that are essential to the success of CMGI and its subsidiaries. The Bonus Plan relates to CMGI’s fiscal year ending July 31, 2008. The Bonus Plan covers CMGI’s executive officers, including executives of ModusLink Corporation, a subsidiary of CMGI, as determined by the Compensation Committee, and is funded based on CMGI’s consolidated financial performance, measured with respect to a threshold level of Non-GAAP Operating Income established. If this threshold is not met, no payments under the Bonus Plan will be made. If the Non-GAAP Operating Income threshold is met, cash payments under the Bonus Plan may range, subject to the terms of the Bonus Plan, from 0-200% of an individual’s target bonus based on business and individual performance and the discretion of the Compensation Committee. Target bonus levels for participating executive officers were previously approved and reported by CMGI on a Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 18, 2007.

The foregoing description is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the Bonus Plan filed as an exhibit hereto, which exhibit is incorporated herein by reference.
