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

    
On August 6, 2012, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Silicon Graphics International Corp. (the "Company") approved a cash bonus in the amount of $163,333.34 to Jorge L. Titinger. This bonus is payable to Mr. Titinger in accordance with the terms of his employment agreement with the Company, dated February 21, 2012, and his fulfillment of the Milestone Targets referenced in such agreement.

On August 8, 2012, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved design changes to the Short Term Incentive Plan for fiscal 2013 (the "2013 STIP") as the Company's performance-based incentive plan. The 2013 STIP is identical in all respects to the Company's previously disclosed 2012 Short Term Incentive Plan, except that (i) the Company's target bonuses will be based on revenue and non-GAAP gross margin for fiscal year 2013 and (ii) for a bonus to be earned and payable for a given quarter, the Company's non-GAAP gross margin must be within a range of respective percentages that includes a threshold requirement of 75% with a payout of 50% and a maximum target of 125% with a maximum payout cap of 150%. In connection with approving the 2013 STIP, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company also determined that Anthony Carrozza and Rick Rinehart are to participate in the 2013 STIP in lieu of participating in the previously disclosed Sales and Service Compensation Plan that they previously participated in.
