Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
As previously announced, Five9, Inc. (the “Company”) will hold its annual meeting of stockholders on May 21, 2025 (the “Annual Meeting”). The board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company has determined that Mr. Jack Acosta, who is currently a Class II director, will not be nominated to stand for re-election as a Class II director at the Annual Meeting. The Board thanks Mr. Acosta for his commitment to the Company and service on the Board and as Chair of the Board’s Audit Committee.
To achieve a more equal balance of membership among the classes of directors of the Company, the Board has determined to move one of the Company’s current directors from Class III to Class II and, effective upon the conclusion of the Annual Meeting, reduce the total number of directors constituting the entire Board to nine, and the total number of directors constituting Class II to three. Accordingly, on March 19, 2025, Mr. Jonathan Mariner resigned from his position as a Class III director, effective upon acceptance by the Board. The Board accepted Mr. Mariner’s resignation, reduced Class III to three members, increased Class II to four members and immediately reappointed Mr. Mariner as a Class II director with a term set to expire at the Annual Meeting. The Board has determined to nominate Mr. Mariner, along with the other current Class II directors (other than Mr. Acosta), for re-election at the Annual Meeting. Mr. Mariner will continue to serve on the Audit Committee and the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board. At the conclusion of the Annual Meeting, Ms. Maria Walker will commence serving as the chair of the Audit Committee.
As a non-employee director, Mr. Mariner will continue to receive compensation in accordance with the Company’s non-employee director compensation policy and will continue to vest in his current equity awards, but he will not receive a new non-employee director RSU grant as a result of this reappointment to the Board.
The Company’s indemnification agreement with Mr. Mariner will remain in effect. The indemnification agreement requires the Company to indemnify Mr. Mariner to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liability that may arise by reason of his service to the Company, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against him as to which he could be indemnified, among other things.
