Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensation of Certain Officers.
(e) Grant of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units under 2018 Equity Incentive Plan
On February 23, 2022, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) of Tenable Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the form of award agreement for performance-based restricted stock unit awards (“PRSUs”) that may be granted under Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”). On February 23, 2022, the Committee also granted PRSUs to the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer and other named executive officer, designated the performance goals applicable to the PRSUs and specified a vesting schedule for the PRSUs. The amount of the PRSU awards for each of the executives is set forth in the table below. The PRSUs were approved with a specified dollar value and were converted to an equivalent number of shares of common stock based on the closing price of the common stock on the grant date, rounded down to the nearest whole share.

Amit YoranChief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors$2,250,000 
Stephen A. VintzChief Financial Officer$1,275,000 
Stephen A. RiddickGeneral Counsel and Corporate Secretary$625,000 
The PRSUs must satisfy both a performance-based requirement and a service-based requirement to vest. Each PRSUs will be deemed to be vested on the first date that both the performance-based requirement and service-based requirement is satisfied with respect to the PRSU.
Performance-Based Requirement
The number of PRSUs that will satisfy the performance-based requirement for each executive will be based on the level of achievement of the performance goals during the 2022 calendar year. The performance goals include achievement of a global bookings target for 2022, weighted at 33.33%, and achievement of a revenue plus free cash flow target for 2022 weighted at 66.67%. The weighted number of PRSUs that may satisfy each applicable performance goal varies from 50% of the PRSUs at 75% achievement of the applicable target performance goal, up to 200% of the PRSUs at 125% or greater achievement of the target performance goal. The actual PRSUs that satisfy each performance goal will be determined by linear interpolation. The performance-based requirement may only be satisfied if the executive remains in continuous service through the date the Committee certifies performance for the 2022 calendar year.
Upon a change control of the Company and subject to the executive’s continuous service through the date of the change in control or involuntary termination of employment without cause or for good reason at any time between the date a definitive agreement providing for a change in control is entered into and on or before the closing of a change in control, the target number of PRSUs will be deemed to have satisfied the performance-based requirement.
Service-Based Requirement
The PRSUs that satisfy the performance-based requirement are subject to a four year service-based vesting requirement, with 25% eligible to satisfy the service-based requirement on the first anniversary of the grant date, and the remaining 75% of the PRSUs eligible to satisfy the service-based requirement in twelve quarterly installments over the following three years, subject to the executive’s continuous service through each date.
If the PRSUs are assumed, continued, or substituted for by the acquiror in a change in control, the PRSUs that satisfied the performance-based requirement will continue to be eligible to satisfy the service-based condition over the service-based vesting term, but will be subject to double-trigger vesting acceleration in the event of an involuntary termination of service without cause or for a good reason event prior to a vesting date. If the PRSUs are not assumed, continued, or substituted for by the acquiror in a change in control, or if the executive is involuntarily terminated without cause or for good reason at any time between the date a definitive agreement providing for a change in control is entered into and on or before the closing of a change in control, then any remaining PRSUs that are deemed to have satisfied the performance-based requirement but have not yet satisfied the service-based requirement will be deemed to have satisfied the service-based requirement as of the closing of the change in control.
