Dear Shareholders,

MobileIron finished a strong 2017 focused on delivering critical solutions to the growing mobile security market.  The threat landscape continues to expand and MobileIron delivers a suite of unmatched solutions that separate us from our peers.  With a strong foothold in mobile security, burgeoning offerings in cloud security and mobile threat defense (MTD), and strong sales leadership, MobileIron has built a solid foundation for 2018 and beyond.

Financial Review

We ended 2017 with quarterly records across billings and revenue and surpassed the threshold of $200 million in billings for the year.  Recurring revenue, the best proxy for our true rate of growth, grew 15% for the year and represented 75% of our total revenue.  Importantly, our cloud solution continued its strong momentum and our cloud billings were up more than 100% year over year.

Our top line growth combined with our ongoing attention to cost controls resulted in some important profitability milestones in the last year.  The fourth quarter of 2017 was the first time in the company’s history we produced a non-GAAP operating profit.  We also delivered on our operating cash flow promise, generating more than $3 million in cash flow for the year.  This represents an improvement of more than $50 million over two years, quite an accomplishment for a company our size.

Business Review

In 2017, the MobileIron team focused on the core and compelling market opportunities within mobile security.  Over the course of the year, we delivered the product innovations to realize our vision of addressing a broader set of customer needs than just enterprise mobility management and becoming a cloud and endpoint security company.  Today, we are solving the security challenges that develop as modern work evolves from PCs to mobile devices and from data centers to clouds in a way that no other vendor can.

Over the last several years, we have seen an explosion in the number of mobile devices used for work and the ways in which employees use their mobile devices to get work done.  This trend is accelerating.  According to IDC, there will be one billion new smartphones deployed for business use over the next three years and the enterprises relying on these mobile devices will be facing threats to their corporate data that they hadn’t imagined just a few years ago.

Corporate data is no longer limited to corporate PCs, access points, and data centers. Today, customer data lives in Salesforce, corporate financials are in Tableau, HR information is in Workday, and employees are accessing the corporate clouds that house this data through unsecured apps on their own mobile endpoints connected to the Wi-Fi that is most convenient. Data has moved outside the traditional network perimeter and requires a new security model.

MobileIron has long been a technology and market leader in mobile security, a category that started with email and grew into apps.  In 2017, we expanded MobileIron Access, our cloud security solution, which protects cloud data by ensuring that only trusted people, apps, and devices get access to cloud services. We also introduced MobileIron Threat Defense which provides on-device protection against malicious apps and untrustworthy Wi-Fi. MobileIron is now the only vendor that offers an integrated solution to address these three critical threat vectors across the mobile device landscape.

2017 Sets Stage for Strong 2018

I am very pleased with the progress we made in 2017 and, as we enter 2018, I believe we are well set for success.  I want to thank our customers, employees, partners and shareholders for their continued support.  I look forward to updating you on our progress through 2018.

Sincerely,

Simon

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may still attend and vote at the Annual Meeting even if you have already voted by proxy.

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by proxy over the telephone, vote by proxy through the Internet or vote by proxy using a proxy card that you may request or that we may elect to deliver at a later time:

·To vote over the telephone, dial toll-free 1-800-690-6903 using a touch-tone phone and follow the recorded instructions. You will be asked to provide the control number from the Notice. Your vote must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 18, 2018 to be counted.

If you return your signed proxy card to us before the Annual Meeting, we will vote your shares as you instruct. If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank or other agent, you should have received a Notice containing voting instructions from that organization rather than from us.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If on April 23, 2018 your shares were registered directly in your name with MobileIron’s transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, then you are a stockholder of record.  As a stockholder of record, you may vote at the meeting or vote by proxy. Whether or not you plan to attend the meeting, we urge you to fill out and return the enclosed proxy card to ensure your vote is counted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Bank

If on April 23, 2018 your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and the Notice is being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker or other agent.

2

What am I voting on?

There are two matters scheduled for a vote:

·Election of two directors nominated by the Board to serve until the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; and

·Ratification of selection by the Audit Committee of the Board of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for its fiscal year ending December 31, 2018.

What if another matter is properly brought before the meeting?

The Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting.  If any other matters are properly brought before the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on those matters in accordance with their best judgment.

How many votes do I have?

Stockholders of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of common stock you own as of April 23, 2018. On this record date, there were 100,635,155 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

What happens if I do not vote?

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If you are a stockholder of record and do not vote by completing your proxy card, by telephone, through the internet or online at the Annual Meeting, your shares will not be voted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank

If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank or other nominee, and you do not provide the broker or other nominee that holds your shares with voting instructions, the broker or other nominee will determine if it has the discretionary authority to vote on the particular matter.

What if I return a proxy card or otherwise vote but do not make specific choices?

If you return a signed and dated proxy card or otherwise vote without marking voting selections, your shares will be voted, as applicable, “For” the election of both nominees for director, and “For” the ratification of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for its year ending December 31, 2018. If any other matter is properly presented at the meeting, your proxyholder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares using his or her best judgment.

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

We will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies.  In addition to these proxy materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies online, by telephone, or by other means of communication.  Directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies.  We may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners.

What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice?

If you receive more than one Notice, your shares may be registered in more than one name or in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on the Notices to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

3

Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

Yes.  You can revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the meeting.  If you are the record holder of your shares, you may revoke your proxy in any one of the following ways:

·You may submit another properly completed proxy card with a later date.

·You may grant a subsequent proxy by telephone or through the internet.

·You may send a timely written notice that you are revoking your proxy to MobileIron’s Secretary at 401 East Middlefield Road, Mountain View, CA 94043.

·You may attend the Annual Meeting and vote online. Simply attending the meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

Your most current proxy card or telephone or internet proxy is the one that is counted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank

If your shares are held by your broker or bank as a nominee or agent, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker or bank.

When are stockholder proposals and director nominations due for next year’s annual meeting

To be considered for inclusion in next year’s proxy materials, your proposal must be submitted in writing by January 2, 2019 to MobileIron’s Secretary at 401 East Middlefield Road, Mountain View, CA 94043 and comply with the requirements in the Company’s Bylaws and all applicable requirements of Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, provided, however, that if our 2019 annual meeting of stockholders is held before May 20, 2019 or after July 19, 2019, then the deadline is a reasonable amount of time prior to the date we begin to print and mail our proxy statement for the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders. If you wish to submit a proposal that is not to be included in next year’s proxy materials or nominate a director, you must do so no later than March 21, 2019 and not earlier than February 19, 2019, provided, however, that if our 2019 annual meeting of stockholders is held before May 20, 2019 or after July 19, 2019, then your proposal must be received no earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. You are also advised to review our Bylaws, which contain additional requirements about advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations.

How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the meeting, who will separately count, for the proposal to elect directors, votes “For,” “Withhold” and broker non-votes; and, with respect to other proposals,  votes “For”, “Against,” abstentions and, if applicable, broker non-votes. A broker non-vote occurs when a nominee, such as a broker or bank, holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary authority to vote with respect to that proposal and has not received instructions with respect to that proposal from the beneficial owner.  In the event that a broker, bank, custodian, nominee or other record holder of our common stock indicates on a proxy that it does not have discretionary authority to vote certain shares on a particular proposal, then those shares will be treated as broker non-votes with respect to that proposal.  In this regard, the election of directors (Proposal 1) is a matter considered non-routine under applicable rules.  A broker or other nominee cannot vote without instructions on non-routine matters, and therefore MobileIron expects broker non-votes on Proposal 1. Thus, if you do not instruct your broker how to vote with respect to Proposal 1, your broker may not vote with respect to that proposal. Accordingly, if you own shares through a nominee, such as a broker or bank, please be sure to instruct your nominee how to vote to ensure that your vote is counted on all of the proposals.

Abstentions and broker non-votes will be treated as shares present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting, however, broker non-votes will not be counted for purposes of determining the number of shares present online during the meeting or represented by proxy and entitled to vote with respect to a particular proposal. Thus, a broker non-vote will not affect the outcome of the vote on Proposal 1.

4

What are “broker non-votes”?

As discussed above, when a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” does not give instructions to the broker or nominee holding the shares as to how to vote on matters deemed to be “non-routine,” the broker or nominee cannot vote the shares. These unvoted shares are counted as “broker non-votes.”

How many votes are needed to approve each proposal?

For the election of directors, the two nominees receiving the most “For” votes from the holders of shares present online, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of directors will be elected. Only votes “For” will affect the outcome.

To be approved, Proposal 2, ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year ending December 31, 2018, must receive “For” votes from the holders of a majority of shares present online, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter.  If you “Abstain” from voting, it will have the same effect as an “Against” vote. Broker non-votes will have no effect.

What is the quorum requirement?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting.  A quorum will be present if stockholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote are present online at the meeting, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy.  On the record date, there were 100,635,155 shares outstanding and entitled to vote. Thus, the holders of 50,317,578 shares must be present online during the meeting or represented by proxy at the meeting to have a quorum.

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote online at the meeting.  Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement.  If there is no quorum, the meeting’s chairperson or holders of a majority of shares represented at the meeting may adjourn the meeting to another date.

How can I find out the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting.  In addition, final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K that we expect to file within four business days after the Annual Meeting.  If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days after the meeting, we intend to file a Current Report on Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and, within four business days after the final results are known to us, file an additional Current Report on Form 8-K to publish the final results.

PROPOSAL 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

MobileIron, Inc.’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) is divided into three classes.  Each class consists, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the total number of directors, and each class has a three-year term.  Vacancies on the Board may be filled only by persons elected by a majority of the remaining directors, provided, however, that whenever the holders of any class of stock are entitled to elect a director, vacancies of such class shall be filled by a majority of the directors elected by such class then in office.  A director elected by the Board to fill a vacancy in a class, including vacancies created by an increase in the number of directors, shall serve for the remainder of the full term of that class and until the director’s successor is duly elected and qualified.

The Board presently has eight members. There are two directors in the class whose term of office expires in 2018. The Board has proposed that Matthew Howard and Jessica Denecour be elected as Class I directors at the Annual Meeting.

Each of the nominees listed below is currently a director of the Company. Each of the nominees listed below was recommended for election by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board. Mr. Howard was appointed to the Board in February 2008 and Ms. Denecour was appointed to the Board in March 2017. If elected at the Annual Meeting, each of these nominees would serve until the 2021 annual meeting and until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified, or, if sooner, until the director’s death, resignation or removal. The Company encourages its nominees for directors to attend its annual meetings. All of the Company’s directors were in attendance at our 2017 Annual Meeting.

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present online at the meeting or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Proxies cannot be voted for more than two persons. The two nominees nominated by the Board of Directors to serve as Class I directors must receive the most “For” votes (among votes properly cast online during the meeting or by proxy) of nominees for the vacancies in such director class in order to be elected. Shares represented by executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so is not withheld, “For” the election of the nominees named below. Only votes “For” will affect the outcome.

The brief biographies below include information, as of the date of this proxy statement, regarding the specific and particular experience, qualifications, attributes or skills of each nominee for director. In addition, following the biographies of the nominees are the biographies of Class II and Class III directors containing information regarding each director continuing to serve on the Board.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS

A VOTE IN FAVOR OF EACH NAMED NOMINEE.

CLASS I NOMINEES FOR ELECTION FOR A THREE-YEAR TERM EXPIRING AT THE 2021 ANNUAL MEETING

MATTHEW HOWARD

Mr. Matthew Howard, 54, has served as one of our directors since March 2008.

Mr. Howard holds a B.B.A. in Business Administration with an emphasis in information systems from Chaminade University of Honolulu and an M.S. in telecommunications management from Golden Gate University. The Board believes that Mr. Howard’s long tenure as a director of MobileIron positions him to contribute to the Board his extensive knowledge of MobileIron and to provide Board continuity. In addition, the Board believes that his experience as a director on the boards of a number of other companies has provided him with operational and industry expertise, as well as leadership skills that are important to the Board. In particular, his experience with technology and mobile companies is especially valuable in view of MobileIron’s growth plans.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

INDEPENDENCE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

As required under the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) listing standards, a majority of the members of a listed company’s Board of Directors must qualify as “independent,” as affirmatively determined by the Board of Directors.  The Board consults with the Company’s counsel to ensure that the Board’s determinations are consistent with relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the definition of “independent,” including those set forth in pertinent listing standards of NASDAQ, as in effect from time to time.

Consistent with these considerations, after review of all relevant identified transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his or her family members, and the Company, its senior management and its independent auditors, the Board has affirmatively determined that the following seven directors are independent directors within the meaning of the applicable NASDAQ listing standards: Ms. Denecour and Messrs. Hilaly, Howard, Klein, Marshall, Nahm and Tolonen.  In making this determination, the Board found that none of these directors or nominees for director had a material or other disqualifying relationship with the Company.

In making those independence determinations, the Board took into account certain relationships and transactions that occurred in the ordinary course of business between the Company and entities with which some of our directors are or have been affiliated, the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our Board deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director.  Mr. Biddiscombe, our President and Chief Executive Officer, is not an independent director by virtue of his current employment with MobileIron.

BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE

The Board of Directors of the Company has an independent Chair, Mr. Nahm, who has authority, among other things, to call and preside over Board meetings, including meetings of the independent directors, to set meeting agendas and to determine materials to be distributed to the Board.  Accordingly, the Chairman of the Board has substantial ability to shape the work of the Board.  The Company believes that separation of the positions of the Chair and Chief Executive Officer reinforces the independence of the Board in its oversight of the business and affairs of the Company.  In addition, the Company believes that having an independent Chair creates an environment that is more conducive to objective evaluation and oversight of management’s performance, increasing management accountability and improving the ability of the Board to monitor whether management’s actions are in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.  As a result, the Company believes that having an independent Chair can enhance the effectiveness of the Board as a whole.

ROLE OF THE BOARD IN RISK OVERSIGHT

The Board recognizes the importance of effective risk oversight in running a successful business and in fulfilling its fiduciary responsibilities to MobileIron and its stockholders.  While the executive team is responsible for the day-to-day management of risk, one of the Board’s key functions is informed oversight of the Company’s risk management process.  The Board does not have a standing risk management committee, but rather administers this oversight function directly through the Board as a whole, as well as through various Board standing committees that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, including a determination of the nature and level of risk appropriate for the Company.  Our Audit Committee has the responsibility to consider and discuss our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken. The Audit Committee also reviews with management when appropriate any significant regulatory and legal developments that may have a material impact on MobileIron’s financial statements, compliance programs and policies. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee monitors the effectiveness of our corporate governance guidelines, including whether they are successful in preventing illegal or improper liability-creating conduct.  Our Compensation Committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking. Our Cybersecurity Committee oversees and monitors our exposure to cybersecurity and data privacy risks and the scope and effectiveness of our cyber security infrastructure designed to minimize exposure to cyber threats and to protect the non-public information of MobileIron, our customers, our employees, our platform and services.  Typically, the applicable Board committees meet at least annually with the employees responsible for risk management in the committees’ respective areas of oversight.  Both the Board as a whole and the various standing committees receive periodic reports from the General Counsel, as well as incidental reports as matters may arise.  It is the responsibility of the committee chairs to report findings regarding material risk exposures to the Board as quickly as possible.

MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors met seven times during the last fiscal year.  Each Board member attended 75% or more of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board and of the committees on which he served, held during the portion of the last fiscal year for which he was a director or committee member.

INFORMATION REGARDING COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board has three committees: an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.  The following table provides membership and meeting information for fiscal 2017 for each of the Board committees:

Below is a description of each committee of the Board.

10

Each of the committees has authority to engage legal counsel or other experts or consultants, as it deems appropriate to carry out its responsibilities. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of each committee meets the applicable NASDAQ rules and regulations regarding “independence” and each member is free of any relationship that would impair his individual exercise of independent judgment with regard to the Company.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee was established by the Board of Directors in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to assist the Board in fulfilling the Board’s oversight responsibilities with respect to (i) the Company’s corporate accounting and financial reporting processes, systems of internal control over financial reporting and audits of financial statements, and systems of disclosure controls and procedures, as well as the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial statements and reports, (ii) the qualifications, independence and performance of the registered public accounting firm or firms engaged as the Company’s independent auditors for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing audit services, (iii) review of any reports or other disclosure required by the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC to be included in the Company’s annual proxy statement and periodic reports and (iv) the performance of the Company’s internal audit function, if any. In order to accomplish these purposes, the Audit Committee performs several functions.  The Audit Committee has direct responsibility for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the work of the independent auditor; determines and approves engagements of the independent auditor to perform all proposed audit, review and attest services, as well as non-audit services; monitors the rotation of the partners of the independent auditor on the Company’s audit engagement team, as required under applicable law;  reviews and discusses with management and the Company’s independent auditors the Company’s guidelines and policies with respect to financial risk management and financial risk assessment; confers with management and the Company’s independent auditors regarding the scope, adequacy and effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting and the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, including any significant deficiencies and significant changes in internal controls; establishes procedures, as required under applicable law, for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by the Company regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters and the confidential and anonymous submission by employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters; considers and approves or disapproves any related party transactions; reviews with management and the independent auditor the Company’s annual audited financial statements, quarterly financial statements and annual audit, as well as the Company’s disclosures under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

The Audit Committee is comprised of three directors: Messrs. Tolonen and Klein and Ms. Denecour. Mr. Hilaly was also a member of the Audit Committee until his resignation from the Audit Committee in October 2017.  The Audit Committee met eight times during the fiscal year.  The Board has adopted a written Audit Committee charter that is available to stockholders on the Company’s website at http://investors.mobileiron.com/ under “Governance.”

The Board reviews the NASDAQ listing standards definition of independence for Audit Committee members on an annual basis and has determined that all members of the Company’s Audit Committee are super-independent (as super-independence is currently defined in Rule 5605(c)(2)(A)(iii) of the NASDAQ listing standards).

The Board has also determined that Mr. Tolonen qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in applicable SEC rules. The Board made a qualitative assessment of Mr. Tolonen’s level of knowledge and experience based on a number of factors, including his formal education and experience as a chief financial officer for public reporting companies.  In addition to the Company’s Audit Committee, Mr. Tolonen also serves on the board of directors of Imperva, Inc. and New Relic, Inc. The Board has determined that this simultaneous service does not impair Mr. Tolonen’s ability to effectively serve on the Company’s Audit Committee.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (1)

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 with management of the Company.  The Audit Committee has discussed with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP the matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 1301, Communications with Audit Committees, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”).  The Audit Committee has also received the written disclosures and the letter from Deloitte & Touche required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountants’ communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with Deloitte & Touche the accounting firm’s independence.

(1)The material in this report is not “soliciting material,” is not deemed “filed” with the SEC and is not to be incorporated by reference in any of our filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, other than our Annual Report on Form 10-K, whether made before or after the date hereof and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing.

11

Based on the foregoing, the Audit Committee has recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.

Mr. James Tolonen

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is comprised of three directors: Messrs. Nahm, Howard and Marshall.  All members of the Company’s Compensation Committee are independent (as independence is currently defined in Rule 5605(d)(2) of the NASDAQ listing standards).  In addition, the Board has also determined that each of members of the Company’s Compensation Committee is a “non-employee director” as defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act and an “outside director” as that term is defined in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  The Compensation Committee met eight times during the fiscal year.  The Board has adopted a written Compensation Committee charter that is available to stockholders on the Company’s website at http://investors.mobileiron.com/ under “Governance.”

The Compensation Committee acts on behalf of the Board in fulfilling the Board’s oversight responsibilities with respect to the Company’s compensation policies, plans and programs and determines the compensation to be paid to the Company’s executive officers and directors.  The Compensation Committee reviews, modifies and approves the overall compensation strategy and policies for the Company, including:

·reviewing and approving corporate performance goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of the Company’s executive officers and other senior management, as appropriate, which powers shall include the power to exercise discretion to adjust compensation based on such goals and objectives;

·evaluating and approving the compensation plans and programs advisable for the Company, as well as evaluating and approving the modification or termination of existing plans and programs;

·establishing policies with respect to equity compensation arrangements;

·reviewing and approving the terms of any employment agreements, severance arrangements, change-of-control protections and any other compensatory arrangements (including, without limitation, perquisites and any other form of compensation) for the Company’s executive officers (other than the CEO, for whom the Compensation Committee makes a recommendation regarding his compensation and other terms of employment to the independent members of Board for approval) and, as appropriate, other senior management;

·approving any loans by the Company to employees; and

·reviewing the Company’s practices and policies of employee compensation as they relate to risk management and risk-taking incentives, to determine whether such compensation policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

In addition, once the Company ceases to be an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, the Compensation Committee will review with management the Company’s Compensation Discussion and Analysis and consider whether to recommend that it be included in Proxy Statements and other filings.

Compensation Committee Processes and Procedures

Typically, the Compensation Committee meets quarterly and with greater frequency if necessary. The agenda for each meeting is usually developed by the Chair of the Compensation Committee, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief People Officer.  The Compensation Committee meets regularly in executive session.  However, from time to time, various members of

12

management and other employees as well as outside advisors or consultants may be invited by the Compensation Committee to make presentations, to provide financial or other background information or advice or to otherwise participate in Compensation Committee meetings.  The Chief Executive Officer may not be present during voting or deliberations of the Compensation Committee regarding his compensation.  The charter of the Compensation Committee grants the Compensation Committee full access to all books, records, facilities and personnel of the Company.  In addition, the Compensation Committee has the authority to obtain, at the expense of the Company, advice and assistance from internal and external legal, accounting or other advisors and other external resources that the Compensation Committee considers necessary or appropriate in the performance of its duties.  The Compensation Committee has direct responsibility for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any other advisers engaged for the purpose of advising the Committee.  In particular, the Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain compensation consultants to assist in its evaluation of executive and director compensation, including the authority to approve the consultant’s reasonable fees and other retention terms.  Under the charter, the Compensation Committee may select, or receive advice from, a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser to the Compensation Committee, other than in-house legal counsel and certain other types of advisers, only after taking into consideration six factors, prescribed by the SEC and NASDAQ, that bear upon the adviser’s independence; however, there is no requirement that any adviser be independent.

During the past fiscal year, after taking into consideration the six factors prescribed by the SEC and NASDAQ described above, the Compensation Committee engaged Compensia, Inc., or Compensia, as its compensation consultants.  Compensia was selected because it is a well-known and respected national compensation consulting firm that commonly provides information, recommendations and other executive compensation advice to compensation committees and management.

During 2017, Compensia provided the following services:

·assisted the Compensation Committee in refreshing our executive compensation peer group;

·provided competitive market data based on the compensation peer group for our executive officer positions, as well as broader technology company survey data and evaluated how the compensation we pay our executive officers compares both to our performance and to how the companies in our compensation peer group and broader technology industry compensate their executives;

·assessed executive compensation trends within our industry and updated the Compensation Committee on corporate governance and regulatory issues and developments;

·reviewed say on pay results and the analysis of institutional shareholder advisers with the Compensation Committee; and

·provided guidance on other compensation topics, such as the Amended and Restated 2014 Employee Stock Purchas Plan share pool and new hire executive compensation guidelines.

Historically, the Compensation Committee has made most of the significant adjustments to annual compensation, determined bonus and equity awards and established new performance objectives at one or more meetings held during the first quarter of the year.  However, the Compensation Committee also considers matters related to individual compensation, such as compensation for new executive hires, as well as high-level strategic issues, such as the efficacy of the Company’s compensation strategy, potential modifications to that strategy and new trends, plans or approaches to compensation, at various meetings throughout the year. Generally, the Compensation Committee’s process comprises two related elements: the determination of compensation levels and the establishment of performance objectives for the current year.  For executives other than the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee solicits and considers evaluations and recommendations submitted to the Committee by the Chief Executive Officer.  The Compensation Committee recommends to the independent members of the Board for determination and approval the compensation and other terms of employment of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and evaluates the Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of relevant corporate performance goals and objectives.  For all executives and directors as part of its deliberations, the Compensation Committee may review and consider, as appropriate, materials such as financial reports and projections, operational data, tax and accounting information, tally sheets that set forth the total compensation that may become payable to executives in various hypothetical scenarios, executive and director stock ownership information, Company stock performance data, analyses of historical executive compensation levels and current Company-wide compensation levels and recommendations of the Compensation Committee’s compensation consultant, including analyses of executive and director compensation paid at other companies identified by the consultant.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company’s corporate governance functions on behalf of the Board, making recommendations to the Board regarding corporate governance issues, reviewing and evaluating the performance of the Board, identifying and evaluating candidates to serve as directors of the Company consistent with the criteria approved by the Board, serving as a focal point for communication between director candidates, non-committee directors and the Company’s management, selecting or recommending to the Board for selection candidates to the Board, or, to the extent required below, to serve as nominees for director for the Annual Meeting of stockholders and making other recommendations to the Board regarding affairs relating to the directors of the Company.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is comprised of three directors: Messrs. Marshall, Howard and Nahm. All members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent (as independence is currently defined in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ listing standards). The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met three times during the fiscal year.  The Board has adopted a written Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charter that is available to stockholders on the Company’s website at http://investors.mobileiron.com/ under “Governance.”

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes that candidates for director should have certain minimum qualifications, including the ability to read and understand basic financial statements, and high personal integrity and ethics.  The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also intends to consider such factors as possessing relevant expertise upon which to be able to offer advice and guidance to management, having sufficient time to devote to the affairs of MobileIron, having demonstrated excellence in his or her field, having the ability to exercise sound business judgment and having the commitment to rigorously represent the long-term interests of our stockholders.  Candidates for director nominees are reviewed in the context of the current composition of the Board, the operating requirements of the Company and the long-term interests of stockholders.  In conducting this assessment, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee typically considers diversity, age, gender, skills, and such other factors as it deems appropriate given the current needs of the Board and the Company to maintain a balance of knowledge, experience and capability.

In the case of incumbent directors whose terms of office are set to expire, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews these directors’ overall service to the Company during their terms, including the number of meetings attended, level of participation, quality of performance and any other relationships and transactions that might impair the directors’ independence.  In the case of new director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also determines whether the nominee is independent for NASDAQ purposes, which determination is based upon applicable NASDAQ listing standards, applicable SEC rules and regulations and the advice of counsel, if necessary.  The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee then uses its network of contacts to compile a list of potential candidates, including direct inquiry from the then appointed members of the Board of Directors, but may also engage, if it deems appropriate, a professional search firm.  The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts any appropriate and necessary inquiries into the backgrounds and qualifications of possible candidates after considering the function and needs of the Board.  The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meets to discuss and consider the candidates’ qualifications and then selects a nominee for recommendation to the Board by majority vote of those present at a meeting at which a quorum is present.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders.  The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not intend to alter the manner in which it evaluates candidates, including the minimum criteria set forth above, based on whether or not the candidate was recommended by a stockholder.  However, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has the power and authority to establish any policies, requirements, criteria and procedures, including policies and procedures to facilitate stockholder communications with the Board, to recommend to the Board appropriate action on any such proposal or recommendation and to make any disclosures required by applicable law in the course of exercising its authority.  Stockholders who wish to recommend individuals for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to become nominees for election to the Board may do so by delivering a written notice to MobileIron’s Secretary at 401 East Middlefield Road, Mountain View, CA 94043 not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s Annual Meeting.  The written notice must be supplemented on a timely basis as set forth in the Company’s bylaws.  Also as discussed in MobileIron’s bylaws, submissions must set forth: (A) as to each nominee such stockholder proposes to nominate at the meeting: (1) the name, age, business address and residence address of such nominee, (2) the principal occupation or employment of such nominee, (3) the class and number of shares of each class of capital stock of the corporation which are owned of record and beneficially by such nominee, (4) the date or dates on which such shares were acquired and the investment intent of such acquisition, (5) a statement whether such nominee, if elected, intends to tender, promptly following such person’s failure to receive the required vote for election or reelection at the next meeting at which such person would face election or re-election, an irrevocable resignation effective upon acceptance of such resignation by the Board of Directors, and (6) such other information concerning such nominee as

In April 2018 our Board established a Cybersecurity Committee in response to the growing complexity of cyber security risks affecting information security infrastructure domestically and internationally as well as specific risks and cyber security threats to the MobileIron platform and products.  The Cybersecurity Committee assists the Board in its oversight of our exposure to cybersecurity and data privacy risks, including with respect to protection of non-public information of MobileIron, our customers, our employees, our platform and services and others with whom we conduct business.  The Cyber Security Committee’s principal role is one of oversight, recognizing that management is responsible for the design, implementation, and maintenance of an effective program for controlling cyber risks within the company and to protect our products and secure our customers’ data.  The Cybersecurity Committee will oversee data governance policies and procedures and plans, quality and effectiveness of our information technology systems and will remain informed, through oversight of and reports from management, regarding the scope and effectiveness of our cyber security infrastructure, and the development and implementation of policies, procedures, standards, and technical measures to create an environment that is designed to minimize exposure to cyber threats and recovery from adverse events.

The Cybersecurity Committee is comprised of two members: Jessica Denecour and Kenneth Klein.  The Cybersecurity Committee was formed in April 2018 and has not yet met.  The Board has adopted a written Cybersecurity Committee charter that is available to stockholders on the Company’s website at http://investors.mobileiron.com/ under “Governance.”

PROPOSAL 2

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of the Board has selected Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018 and has further directed that management submit the selection of its independent registered public accounting firm for ratification by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting. Deloitte & Touche LLP has audited the Company’s financial statements since 2010. Representatives of Deloitte & Touche LLP are expected to be present during the Annual Meeting.  They will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Neither the Company’s Bylaws nor other governing documents or law require stockholder ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.  However, the Audit Committee of the Board is submitting the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice.  If the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee of the Board will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm.  Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee of the Board in its discretion may direct the appointment of different independent auditors at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of shares present online at the meeting, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter will be required to ratify the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP.

PRE-APPROVAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

The Audit Committee has adopted a policy and procedures for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit services rendered by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP.  The policy generally pre-approves specified services in the defined categories of audit services, audit-related services and tax services.  Pre-approval may also be given as part of the Audit Committee’s approval of the scope of the engagement of the independent auditor or on an individual, explicit, case-by-case basis before the independent auditor is engaged to provide each service.  The pre-approval of services may be delegated to one or more of the Audit Committee’s members, but the decision must be reported to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

The Audit Committee has determined that the rendering of services other than audit services by Deloitte & Touche is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

Narrative to Summary Compensation Table

Employment Agreements

We have entered into agreements with each of our NEOs in connection with their employment with us. All such employment agreements were negotiated with the oversight and approval of our Compensation Committee, and with respect to our former and current Chief Executive Officers, the Board. These agreements provided for “at will” employment and set forth the terms and conditions of employment of each Named Executive Officer, including base salary, eligibility to participate in the Company’s bonus programs, if any and when applicable, standard employee benefit plan participation, initial stock option and restricted stock unit grants and vesting provisions with respect to the initial stock option and restricted stock unit grants. These employment agreements were each subject to execution of our standard confidential information and invention assignment agreement and a background check. Each of these employment agreements also provided for certain potential payments and/or acceleration of equity upon termination or termination in connection with a change in control of the Company that (except with regard to Messrs. Biddiscombe and Mainz) were subsequently superseded by the Company’s Severance Benefit Plan as described below, see the section titled “Executive Compensation—Potential Payments and Acceleration of Equity upon Termination or Termination in Connection with a Change in Control.”

In October 2017, the Company announced the appointment of Simon Biddiscombe as our President and Chief Executive Officer.  Mr. Biddiscombe, who prior to his appointment served as MobileIron’s Chief Financial Officer, replaced Barry Mainz in those roles. Accordingly, although Mr. Mainz is no longer President and Chief Executive Officer, for part of 2017, he continued to be one of our employees, and continued to serve as a member of our Board until October 2017. Thus, his employment agreement, January 6, 2016, continued for a part of 2017 to provide for Mr. Mainz’s employment and compensation terms with the Company.

Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation

Non-equity incentive plan compensation consisted of stock-settled bonuses paid to certain of our Named Executive Officers in 2017, based on the achievement of performance goals during 2016. Whether a Named Executive Officer earns his target bonus, or any portion thereof, is determined by the Compensation Committee (or in the case of our chief executive officer, the Board, upon recommendation by the Compensation Committee), based upon its assessment of performance against the performance goals for the applicable calendar year. These bonuses were paid within the first half of the calendar year based on the prior year’s performance.

Potential Payments and Acceleration of Equity upon Termination or Termination in Connection with a Change in Control

Severance Benefit Plan

Pursuant to the Company’s Severance Benefit Plan (the “Severance Plan”), certain current and future employees, including all of our NEOs other than Mr. Biddiscombe and Mr. Mainz, are eligible for severance benefits under certain circumstances. The Severance Plan supersedes any severance benefits that a participant would have been entitled to under any pre-existing agreement between the individual and the Company. Unless terminated sooner, the Severance Plan will automatically terminate on the third annual anniversary of its adoption.

The actual amounts that would be paid or distributed to an eligible NEO as a result of a termination of employment occurring in the future may be different than those presented below as many factors will affect the amount of any payments and benefits upon a termination of employment. For example, some of the factors that could affect the amounts payable include the NEO’s base salary and the market price of our common stock. Although the Company has entered into a written agreement to provide severance payments and benefits in connection with a termination of employment under particular circumstances, the Company, or an acquirer, may mutually agree with the NEOs to provide payments and benefits on terms that vary from those currently contemplated. In addition to the amounts presented below, each eligible NEO would also be able to exercise any previously-vested stock options that he or she held, in accordance with the terms of those grants and the respective plans pursuant to which they were granted. Finally, the eligible NEOs may also receive any benefits accrued under our broad-based benefit plans, in accordance with those plans and policies.

Severance Absent a Change in Control

Under the Severance Plan, if a participating individual is involuntarily terminated without cause, absent a Change In Control (as defined in the Severance Plan), then he or she will be entitled to receive (a) cash severance in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices and subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings equal to his or her monthly base salary multiplied by the number of months in his or her participation notice under the Severance Plan, and (b) continuation of his or her current health insurance coverage, or payment of the premiums for such coverage, for up to the number of months specified in his or her participation notice. Messrs. Randolph and Fields are eligible to receive the following payments and benefits:

·annual base salary for 6 months from the date of termination; and

·health insurance premiums under our group health insurance plans as provided under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”), to the extent such COBRA premiums exceed the costs previously paid by the NEO for group health insurance coverage while employed by us for 6 months after termination.

25

Severance in Connection with a Change in Control

In the case of a Change In Control Termination (as defined in the Severance Plan), if a participating individual is terminated without cause or constructively terminated, either during the three months before or in the year after a change in control, then he or she will be entitled to receive (a) cash severance in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices and subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings equal to his or her monthly base salary multiplied by the number of months specified in his or her participation notice under the Severance Plan, (b) continuation of his or her current health insurance coverage, or payment of the premiums for such coverage, for up to the number of months specified in his or her participation notice under the Severance Plan, and (c) accelerated vesting of then outstanding compensatory equity awards as to the percentage of unvested shares per equity award specified in his or her participation notice. Messrs. Randolph and Fields are eligible to receive the following payments and benefits:

·annual base salary for 12 months from the change in control;

·full acceleration of vesting of any outstanding shares of common stock, stock options to purchase common stock or restricted stock units; and

·health insurance premiums under our group health insurance plans as provided under COBRA until 12 months after a change in control.

Severance Arrangements for Mr. Fields

Pursuant to that certain Executive Employment Agreement, dated November 1, 2017 between the Company and our President and Chief Executive Officer, Simon Biddiscombe, the employment agreement, Mr. Biddiscombe is not entitled to participate in the Company’s Severance Plan. Instead, severance arrangements for Mr. Biddiscombe are set forth in his employment agreement.

If Mr. Biddiscombe is involuntarily terminated as an employee without Cause or he resigns for Good Reason, unrelated to a Change In Control (as each term is defined in his employment agreement), he will be entitled to receive (a) cash severance in an amount equal to 12 months of his then-current base salary, less standard payroll deductions and withholdings, and a pro rata portion of his annual bonus, which shall be a minimum of 50% of his then-current base salary, and (b) payment of (i) health insurance premiums pursuant to the Company’s group health insurance plans as provided pursuant to COBRA until the earlier of (y) 12 months after termination, or (z) such time as he is eligible for health insurance coverage with a subsequent employer, or (ii) alternatively and in the Company’s sole discretion, a fully taxable cash amount equal to 150% of Mr. Biddiscombe’s applicable COBRA premiums for the applicable COBRA period. Additionally, if Mr. Biddiscombe is involuntarily terminated as an employee without Cause or he resigns for Good Reason, unrelated to a Change In Control, on or before October 16, 2018, then all RSU Awards and the Options will be 25% accelerated as set forth in the employment agreement.

Furthermore, in the event that Mr. Biddiscombe’s employment with the Company terminates as a result of his death or Disability (as defined in his employment agreement), then Mr. Biddiscombe or his estate will be entitled to receive (a) a pro rata portion of his Annual Bonus, and (b) the full acceleration of all unvested equity awards then held by Mr. Biddiscombe as set forth in his employment agreement.

Severance Arrangements for Mr. Mainz

On October 16, 2017, Mr. Mainz and MobileIron entered into a Separation Agreement pursuant to which Mr. Mainz released all claims against MobileIron and agreed to certain confidentiality and non-disparagement provisions.  The separation agreement also confirmed certain provisions relating to severance set forth in that certain Executive Employment Agreement dated January 6, 2016 between the Company and Mr. Mainz.

NON-QUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

None of the NEOs participates in or has an account balance under any non-qualified defined contribution plans or other non-qualified deferred compensation plans maintained by the Company.

401(k) Plan

We maintain a tax-qualified retirement plan that provides eligible U.S. employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax advantaged basis. Eligible employees are able to defer eligible compensation subject to applicable annual Code limits. Currently, we do not make matching contributions or discretionary contributions to the 401(k) plan. Employees’ pre-tax contributions are allocated to each participant’s individual account and are then invested in selected investment alternatives according to the participants’ directions. Employees are immediately and fully vested in their contributions. The 401(k) plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code with the 401(k) plan’s related trust intended to be tax exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions to the 401(k) plan and earnings on those contributions are not taxable to the employees until distributed from the 401(k) plan.

Director Compensation

Pursuant to the 2014 Amended Plan, as amended, or the Amended Plan, future directors will be granted a restricted stock unit award having a grant date fair market value equal to $175,000 divided by 365 and then multiplied by the number of days from the date of such non-employee director’s initial election to our next annual stockholder meeting date following such initial election (provided that if no Annual Meeting date has been established, then to the next June 25th following such initial election). We refer to this as the Initial RSU Grant. The number of shares underlying the Initial RSU Grant shall be determined on the basis of the average closing prices of the Company’s common stock over the twenty business days ending on the date immediately preceding the date of grant. All shares underlying this Initial RSU Grant will vest fully on the annual meeting date following such initial election, subject to continued service on the vesting date. In the event that the non-employee director voluntarily resigns other than for cause, then such Initial RSU Grant will vest as of the effective date of the resignation as to 1/365th of the shares subject to such Initial RSU Grant multiplied by the number of full days of the non-employee director’s service between the date of grant and the effective date of the resignation. In the event of a change in control, any unvested portion of the shares underlying such Initial RSU Grant will fully vest and become exercisable immediately prior to the effective time of such change in control, subject to continued service on the effective date of such transaction.

Pursuant to the Amended Plan, on the date of each Annual Meeting of stockholders, the Annual RSU Grant for each current non-employee director will be equal to the fair value of $175,000 determined on the basis of the average closing prices of the Company’s common stock over the twenty business days ending on the trading date immediately before the date of grant. All shares underlying this Annual RSU Grant will vest fully on the first anniversary of the date of grant, subject to continued service on the vesting date. In the event that the non-employee director voluntarily resigns other than for cause, then such Annual RSU Grant will vest as of the effective date of the resignation as to 1/365th of the shares subject to such Annual RSU Grant multiplied by the number of full days of the non-employee director’s service between the date of grant and the effective date of the resignation. In the event of a change in control, any unvested portion of the shares underlying such Annual RSU Grant will fully vest and become exercisable immediately prior to the effective time of such change in control, subject to continued service on the effective date of such transaction.

Cash Compensation

Pursuant to the Amended Plan, each non-employee director will receive an annual fee of $35,000 in cash for serving on our Board of Directors. In addition, the Chair and other members of the three standing committees of our Board of Directors will be entitled to the following additional annual cash fees:

Board Committee	Chair Fee		Other Member Fee

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS AND INDEMNIFICATION

Related Person Transaction & SEC Compliance Policy

In 2014, the Company adopted a written Related-Person Transactions Policy that sets forth the Company’s policies and procedures regarding the identification, review, consideration and approval or ratification of “related person transactions” by the Audit Committee of the Board. For purposes of the Company’s policy only, a “related person transaction” is a transaction, arrangement or relationship (or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships) in which the Company and any “related person” are participants involving an amount that exceeds $120,000. Transactions involving compensation for services provided to the Company as an employee, director or consultant is not considered a Related-Person Transaction by this policy. A related person is any executive officer, director, director nominee or more than 5% stockholder of the Company, including any of their immediate family members, and any entity owned or controlled by such persons. All future transactions between us and our officers, directors, principal stockholders and their affiliates will be approved by the Audit Committee, or a similar committee consisting of entirely independent directors, according to the terms of our Related-Person Transaction Policy.

Certain Related-Person Transactions

Commercial Transactions

We have entered into ordinary course commercial dealings with certain companies that we consider arms-length on terms that are consistent with similar transactions with our other similarly situated customers and vendors. Since January 1, 2017, there were no other commercial transactions other than as described below. Our Audit Committee has determined that none of our directors had or currently has any direct or indirect material interest in any of the transactions described below.

Mr. Klein, one of our directors, served as an executive officer of Tintri, Inc., which is a supplier of ours, during the year ended December 31, 2017. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company purchased products and related services from Tintri.

Other than the transaction with Tintri discussed above and compensation arrangements with our director’s and NEOs described in this Proxy Statement, since January 1, 2017 there are no other transactions to which the Company’s directors or NEOs were a party or will be a party, in which:

·the amounts involved exceeded or will exceed the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of the Company’s total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years; and

·any of our directors, executive officers, or holders of more than 5% of our capital stock, or any member of the immediate family of the foregoing persons, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Investor Rights Agreement

We are party to an investor rights agreement that provides holders of our common stock issued upon conversion of convertible preferred stock, including certain holders of 5% of our capital stock and entities affiliated with certain of our directors, with certain registration rights, including the right to demand that we file a registration statement or request that their shares be covered by a registration statement that we are otherwise filing.

Indemnification Agreements

The Company provides indemnification for certain officers and directors so that they will be free from undue concern about personal liability in connection with their service to the Company. Under the Company’s Bylaws, the Company is required to indemnify its executive officers and directors to the extent not prohibited under Delaware or other applicable law. The Company has also entered into indemnity agreements with certain officers and directors. These agreements provide, among other things, that the Company will indemnify the officer or director, under the circumstances and to the extent provided for in the agreement, for expenses, damages, judgments, fines and settlements he or she may be required to pay in actions or proceedings which he or she is or may be made a party by reason of his or her position as a director, officer or other agent of the Company, and otherwise to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law and the Company’s Bylaws.

Change in Control Arrangements

We have entered into severance arrangements with each of our current executive officers under a Severance Benefit Plan. For more information regarding these agreements, see the section titled “Executive Compensation—Potential Payments and Acceleration of Equity upon Termination or Termination in Connection with a Change in Control.”

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other Annual Meeting materials with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other Annual Meeting materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are MobileIron, Inc. stockholders will be “householding” the Company’s proxy materials. A single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, please notify your broker or MobileIron, Inc. Direct your written request to Investor Relations, MobileIron, Inc., 401 East Middlefield Road, Mountain View, CA 94043 or contact Kimberly Canigiula at (650) 282-7558. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials at their addresses and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their brokers.
