Item 5.02    Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On April 15, 2021, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Sila Realty Trust, Inc. (the "Company") increased the size of the Board from five to six directors and appointed Adrienne Kirby as director to fill the newly created vacancy on the Board, effective immediately. The Board determined that Ms. Kirby is an independent director. With the election of Ms. Kirby, the Board now consists of six members, five of whom are independent directors. In addition, the Board appointed Ms. Kirby to serve on the audit committee (the "Audit Committee") and the nominating and corporate governance committee (the "Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee") of the Board. Ms. Kirby will serve as a director until the Company's next annual meeting of stockholders and until her successor is duly elected and qualifies or until her earlier resignation or removal in accordance with the Company's organizational documents and applicable law. As an independent director and member of the Audit Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Ms. Kirby will receive the same compensation and reimbursement of expenses that the Company pays to each of its independent directors and Audit Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee members.
Since 2019, Adrienne Kirby has served on the board of directors of three private companies, Trellis Rx, MedVet, and Greenway Health.  Most recently, Ms. Kirby served in several capacities with Cooper University Health Care: Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (2018 – 2019), President and Chief Executive Officer (2013 –2018), and Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer (2012 – 2013). In these roles, Ms. Kirby led the implementation of a strategic partnership and strategic plan resulting in key growth outcomes, the transformation from a safety net hospital to a regional academic tertiary care center with a new medical school and advanced programs in cancer, cardiac, trauma and surgical care, extensive facility acquisition, development and expansion initiatives, and other pivotal partnerships, initiatives and transformations, significantly improving the company's financial performance and achieving unprecedented volume growth. From 2010 to 2012, Ms. Kirby worked for MedStar Health, a nine-hospital healthcare system with operations in Washington, D.C. and throughout Maryland, as Senior Vice President, MedStar then President, Franklin Square Medical Center.  Previously, Ms. Kirby worked for VIRTUA Health, the largest health system in southern New Jersey, performing in various roles from 1999 to 2010, culminating as Chief Operating Officer. Earlier in her career, Ms. Kirby held various positions with Christina Care, the University of Pennsylvania Medical Center, and Hahnemann University. Ms. Kirby earned a Bachelor's degree in Nursing from Rutgers University and a Master's degree in Nursing and a Ph.D from the University of Pennsylvania. Ms. Kirby was selected to serve as an independent director because of her significant experience leading and operating healthcare systems.
Ms. Kirby will be compensated for her services in the manner consistent with that of the Company's other non-employee directors, as discussed in the Company's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. There are no transactions in which Ms. Kirby has an interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. Additionally, there is no arrangement or understanding between Ms. Kirby and any other persons pursuant to which she was selected as a director that would be reportable under Item 401(d) of Regulation S-K.
