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

(e) On February 24, 2023, Joe Dziedzic exercised options to acquire 14,530 shares of the Company's common stock via a cash payment of $366,883. The Company typically withholds tax payments from its executive officers for such transactions. However, no taxes were withheld because these options were issued to Mr. Dziedzic for his service as a director before he became the Company's President and CEO. The exercised options were granted to Mr. Dziedzic on February 28, 2013 and were set to expire on February 28, 2023.

On February 24, 2023, the Company awarded Payman Khales, its President, Cardio & Vascular, a special award of time-based restricted stock units having a grant date fair value of $2,000,000, vesting on February 24, 2026. The Company and Mr. Khales also agreed that February 24, 2026 would be the new vesting date for the restricted stock units awarded him on November 2, 2022, which units originally vested in equal installments over three years. Both awards are governed by the Company's form of Time-Based Restricted Stock Units Award Agreement under the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, with the exception that if Mr. Khales' employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company following a change in the Chief Executive Officer, the awards will not be forfeited but will vest on a pro-rata basis based on Mr. Khales length of service during the vesting period. In addition, the Company increased Mr. Khales' annual base salary from $450,000 (which was effective as of March 2022) to $550,000 commencing March 20, 2023. The new award and salary increase recognize the leadership and contributions made by Mr. Khales during his tenure and, combined with the amended November 2022 grant, seek to retain Mr. Khales in his current position and incent him to drive future stock price growth.
