Related Person Transaction and Director Independence

On September 24, 2024, Michelle M. Brennan, a member of the Board and of the Board's Audit Committee and Human Resources and Compensation Committee, was appointed interim Chief Executive Officer of Masimo Corporation ("Masimo"), a health technology and consumer electronics company. Ms. Brennan has served as a member of Masimo's board of directors since June 26, 2023. When Ms. Brennan joined Masimo's board of directors, the Company had a pre-existing contract with Masimo under which the Company purchased Masimo's products for distribution to the Company's customers. The commercial relationship was negotiated at arm's length and in the ordinary course of business and remains ongoing. From July 1, 2023 through August 31, 2024, the Company made payments to Masimo of approximately $132 million for product purchases. These transactions have been subsequently approved by the Audit Committee in accordance with the Company's Related Person Transactions Policy. Ms. Brennan has not been involved in any discussions or decisions related to the commercial relationship or transactions between Masimo and the Company.

As a result of Ms. Brennan's employment relationship with Masimo and the Company's commercial relationship with Masimo, the Board has determined that Ms. Brennan no longer qualifies as an independent director. Ms. Brennan will remain a member of the Board, but in accordance with the charters of the Audit Committee and the Human Resources and Compensation Committee, she will no longer serve on those committees. Ms. Brennan remains compliant with our outside board commitment policy.

Effective September 29, 2024, director Robert W. Azelby was appointed to the Audit Committee and director Gregory B. Kenny was appointed to the Human Resources and Compensation Committee.
