5(a) Matters Requiring Disclosure on Current Report Form 8-K

The information set forth below is included for the purpose of providing disclosure under “5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.”

As previously disclosed in the Form 8-K filed on June 24, 2025, Kevan Krysler was no longer Pure’s Chief Financial Officer as of the date thereof, though he remained an employee of Pure and would provide ongoing services to help ensure a smooth transition of his duties and responsibilities. In connection with Mr. Krysler’s transition, Pure and Mr. Krysler entered into a Separation and Release Agreement on June 29, 2025, as well as an Advisor Agreement on July 1, 2025, under which he transitioned from employee to an advisor to the company. Given the substantial completion of the first half of the fiscal year, Mr. Krysler will be paid a bonus equal to 40% of his target cash bonus. Under the terms of the Advisor Agreement, Mr. Krysler will provide transitional advisory services until June 30, 2026, and Mr. Krysler will receive continued payments equivalent to his existing salary, a bonus dependent on the company's performance through the end of fiscal 2026, as described in the Advisor Agreement, and vesting of his existing equity awards until June 30, 2026.

The foregoing description of the Agreement with Mr. Krysler does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Separation Agreement and Advisor Agreement which have been filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended August 3, 2025.
