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

(e) On July 11, 2008, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Corinthian Colleges, Inc. (the "Company"), approved a new Executive Bonus Plan (the "Plan") for the Company's fiscal year 2009 ending June 30, 2009, pursuant to the Company's 2003 Performance Award Plan, as amended and restated. The Plan will be offered by the Company to all executive officers of the Company, including the Company's "named executive officers," and sets forth the bonus targets and the performance criteria upon which the executives' bonuses will be based. The performance criteria include operating profit for the Company as well as measures related to compliance. Each executive's bonus is targeted to be a percentage of such executive's base salary, as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors for each executive. Jack Massimino's target bonus is 115% of his base salary and Peter Waller's target bonus is 100% of his base salary. Other than Messrs. Massimino and Waller, each of the "named executive officers" of the Company has a target bonus equal to 75% of his or her respective base salary.

The foregoing summary of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Form of Campus Support Bonus Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and the Form of Executive Bonus Plan Schedule, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2.
