 director to be considered independent, the Board must determine that he or she does not have any material relationship with GE HealthCare. In addition to applying these guidelines, the Board considers all relevant facts and circumstances when making determinations on independence.

• Applying the Guidelines: In assessing director independence, the Board considered relevant transactions, relationships, and arrangements, including as described in “Independence Assessment” below.

#### Committee Members
All members of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Governance Committee must be independent, as defined by Nasdaq rules. Committee members must also meet additional committee-specific standards:

• Heightened standards for Audit Committee members:

– Under a separate SEC independence requirement, Audit Committee members may not accept any consulting, advisory, or other fees from GE HealthCare or any of its subsidiaries, except compensation for Board service, and they may not be an affiliated person with the Company or a subsidiary.

• Heightened standards for members of the Compensation Committee and the Governance Committee:

– As a policy matter, the Board also applies a separate, heightened independence standard to members of the Compensation Committee and the Governance Committee. No member of either committee may be a partner, member, or principal of a law firm, accounting firm, or investment banking firm that accepts consulting or advisory fees from GE HealthCare or a subsidiary.

– In addition, in determining whether Compensation Committee members are independent, Nasdaq rules require the Board to consider whether their sources of compensation, including any consulting, advisory, or other compensation paid by GE HealthCare or a subsidiary, and any affiliate relationship involving the director, would impair their ability to make independent judgments about executive compensation.

#### Independence Assessment
The Company will have a majority of independent directors at all times, as independence is defined under the rules of Nasdaq and determined by the Board. The Board assesses the independence of each director and director nominee annually, in accordance with the Nasdaq listing standards. In reaching its determinations, the Board considered that Anne T. Madden, Phoebe L. Yang, Tomislav Mihaljevic, and Rodney F. Hochman are or have been employed by organizations that did business with the Company at some time during the last three fiscal years in the ordinary course of business. The amount received by the Company or such other organization in each of the last three fiscal years did not exceed 1% of either the Company’s or such organization’s consolidated gross revenues. The Board determined that Rodney F. Hochman, Lloyd W. Howell, Jr., Risa Lavizzo- Mourey,
