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

Effective September 28, 2022, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Tenable Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed George Alexander Tosheff to serve as a director of the Company. Mr. Tosheff will serve as a Class III director whose term will expire at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and he will serve as a member of the audit committee of the Board.

There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Tosheff and any other person pursuant to which he was selected as a director of the Company, and there is no family relationship between Mr. Tosheff and any of the Company’s other directors or executive officers. The Company is not aware of any transaction involving Mr. Tosheff requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. Additional information about Mr. Tosheff is set forth below:

George Alexander Tosheff, age 55, has served as Senior Vice President, Chief Security Officer of VMware, Inc. since February 2022 following his promotion from Vice President, Chief Security Officer, a position he held since 2017. Prior to joining VMware in 2014, Mr. Tosheff served as the Chief Information Security Officer and Senior Director of Information Security of PayPal, Inc. from 2008 to 2014. Mr. Tosheff served as a member of the Company’s Executive Advisory Board from 2017 until September 2022.

In connection with the commencement of his service as a director on September 28, 2022, the Board approved granting Mr. Tosheff restricted stock units equal to $400,000 divided by the the closing price of the Company's common stock on The NASDAQ Stock Market on the date of grant, with one third of the shares underlying the restricted stock units vesting on each anniversary of the commencement of service, such that the award will be fully vested after three years, subject to Mr. Tosheff’s continued service as a director through the applicable vesting dates and accelerated vesting in specified circumstances. Additionally, the Board approved the following compensation for Mr. Tosheff for his service on the Board for the year ending December 31, 2022, to be pro-rated for his 2022 service and subject to his continued service through the applicable payment dates:

•Board Service Retainer: $35,000

•Audit Member Service Retainer: $10,000
