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

On July 31, 2025, the board of directors (the “Board”) of RxSight, Inc. (the “Company”) increased the number of its authorized directors from nine to ten, and appointed Raymond W. Cohen to fill the newly created opening on the Board, effective July 31, 2025. Mr. Cohen was appointed as a Class I director for a term which will expire at the Company’s 2028 annual meeting of stockholders, subject to his earlier resignation, death or removal.

Mr. Cohen, age 66, served from 2013 to late 2024 as the Chief Executive Officer and a member of the board of directors of Axonics, Inc. (Nasdaq: AXNX), a medical device company with implantable technologies to treat bladder and bowel disorders, which was sold to Boston Scientific Corporation (NYSE: BSX) in November 2024. From 2023 to 2025, Mr. Cohen served as the chairman of the board of directors of SoniVie Ltd until it was acquired by Boston Scientific Corporation in March 2025. Mr. Cohen currently serves as a member of the board of directors of Kestra Medical Technologies, Ltd. (Nasdaq: KMTS), InspireMD (Nasdaq: NSPR) as an independent director, chairman of the boards of directors of the privately held companies Nalu Medical Inc. and Archimedes Vascular, vice chairman of the board of directors of the privately held company Tulavi Medical, and a member of the board of directors of the private equity sponsor-backed company Spectrum Vascular. Previously, Mr. Cohen served as chairman of the board of directors of BioLife Solutions Inc. (Nasdaq: BLFS) and as a director of Spectrum Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq: SPPI). Mr. Cohen received his B.S. in Business Management from Binghamton University.

We believe that Mr. Cohen is qualified to serve on the Board because of his leadership experience and commercial expertise in the medical device industry.

As a non-employee director, Mr. Cohen will participate in the Company’s compensation program applicable to all non-employee directors. Under the Company’s Outside Director Compensation Policy (the “Outside Director Compensation Policy”), each non-employee director receives a base annual retainer of $50,000, the non-executive chair receives an additional retainer of $50,000, and the lead director receives an additional retainer of $30,000. Board committee members receive additional annual cash compensation for service on Board committees as follows: Audit Committee of the Board, $10,000 for service as a member of the committee and an additional $10,000 for service as chair of the committee; Compensation Committee of the Board, $7,500 for service as a member of the committee and an additional $7,500 for service as chair of the committee; and Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board, $5,000 for service as a member of the committee and an additional $5,000 for service as chair of the committee. Pursuant to the Outside Director Compensation Policy, Mr. Cohen was granted an initial award of restricted stock units covering a number of shares of the Company’s common stock having a grant date fair value as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles of $277,500, which award was granted on July 31, 2025, the first trading date on or after July 31, 2025, and will vest on an annual basis ratably over three years (subject to Mr. Cohen remaining a non-employee director through the applicable vesting date).

The Company also entered into an indemnification agreement with Mr. Cohen in the same form as its standard form of indemnification agreement with its other directors.
 

There are no family relationships between Mr. Cohen, on the one hand, and any director or executive officer of the Company, on the other hand, and Mr. Cohen was not selected by the Board to serve as a director pursuant to any arrangement or understanding with any person. Mr. Cohen has not engaged in any transaction that would be reportable as a related party transaction under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

On August 4, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the appointment of Mr. Cohen as a director. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
