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

On December 3, 2019, Jeryl ("Jeri") Hilleman joined the Board of Directors of SI-BONE, Inc. (the “Company”) and was appointed to be the Chair of the Audit Committee. Ms. Hilleman is a member of the Board of Directors and Audit Committee Chair of Novocure, a commercial international oncology company delivering a novel device therapy for solid tumors called Tumor Treating Fields (Nasdaq: NVCR) and Minerva Neurosciences (Nasdaq: NERV), a clinical stage company focused on innovative solutions for patients with central nervous system diseases.

As a non-employee director Ms. Hilleman will receive the following compensation under the Company’s non-employee director compensation policy: (1) an annual cash retainer of $40,000 for serving on the Board; (2) an additional annual cash retainer of $20,000 for serving as the Chair of the Audit Committee; (3) an initial option to purchase 26,236 shares of the Company’s common stock, which will vest on a monthly basis over 36 months commencing on the grant date, subject to her continuous service with the Company on each applicable vesting date; and (4) on the date of each annual meeting of stockholders, an option to purchase 15,741 shares of the Company’s common stock, vesting on a monthly basis over 12 months commencing on the grant date, subject to her continuous service with the Company on each applicable vesting date.

The exercise price per share of each stock option granted under the non-employee director compensation policy will be the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported by the Nasdaq Global Market on the date of grant. Each stock option will have a term of ten years from the date of grant, subject to earlier termination in connection with a termination of the non-employee director’s continuous service with the Company, and will be subject to accelerated vesting in the event of a change in control of the Company. The Company will also enter into its standard form of indemnification agreement with Ms. Hilleman.
