Appointment of Larry L. Wood as President and Chief Executive Officer

On July 23, 2025, the Company appointed Larry L. Wood, 59, as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, effective as of September 2, 2025 (the “Effective Date”). Mr. Wood will also serve as the Company’s principal executive officer. Mr. Wood will also continue to serve as a Class I director of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).

As of the close of business on September 1, 2025, Reza Zadno will step down from his roles as the Company’s President, Chief Executive Officer, principal executive officer and member of the Board. Dr. Zadno will transition to a consulting role with the Company. Dr. Zadno’s departure is not the result of any disagreement between him and the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.

Mr. Wood’s appointment follows an extensive and coordinated succession search process overseen by the Board with the assistance of a leading external search firm. During this process, the Board evaluated numerous high-quality candidates.

Mr. Wood has served as a member of the Company’s Board since April 2024. Since February 2007, Mr. Wood has been Corporate Vice President, Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement, and since 2023, as Group President for Surgical Structural Heart, at Edwards Lifesciences Corporation, a global leader in patient-focused medical innovations for structural heart disease and critical care and surgical monitoring. Mr. Wood has more than 40 years of experience in the medical technology industry at both Edwards Lifesciences Corporation and Baxter Healthcare Corporation in positions including manufacturing management, regulatory affairs and strategic and clinical marketing, primarily for the surgical heart valve therapy business. Mr. Wood received an M.B.A. from Pepperdine Graziadio Business School.

Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Wood will receive an initial base salary of $925,000, a target annual bonus opportunity of 100% of base salary (pro-rated for calendar year 2025) and a sign on bonus of $1,700,000 which is intended to capture his foregone bonus at his previous employer as well as certain estimated housing and commuting expenses. Mr. Wood will also be eligible to participate in the Company’s employee benefit plans and programs applicable to executives and other employees of the Company, as may be in effect from time to time.

In consideration of certain unvested equity awards forfeited from his previous employer, Mr. Wood will receive a one-time award of restricted stock units with a target grant value of approximately $7,500,000 (the “Buy-Out RSUs”), which will vest as to one-fourth (1/4th) of the Buy-Out RSUs on the first anniversary of his employment commencement date and thereafter as to one twelfth (1/12th) of the remaining Buy-Out RSUs on each three-month anniversary date thereafter, subject to his continuous service through each vesting date. Mr. Wood will also receive (i) a new-hire award of stock options with a target grant value of approximately $7,500,000, which will vest as to



one-fourth (1/4th) of the shares subject to the stock options on the first anniversary of his employment commencement date, and as to one-forty eighth (1/48th) of the shares on each one-month anniversary thereafter, subject to his continuous service through each vesting date; and (ii) a new hire award of performance stock units with a target grant value of $3,000,000. The performance stock units are intended to be granted in the first quarter of calendar year 2026 and will be earned based on a pre-established formula on the same terms and conditions as performance stock unit awards to be granted to the Company’s other executives.

Upon a termination of Mr. Wood’s employment without cause or by Mr. Wood with good reason, other than in connection with a change in control, Mr. Wood will be entitled to receive: (i) an amount equal to one and one-half times the sum of his base salary, paid as a lump sum; (ii) continued coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”) for up to eighteen (18) months following termination; and (iii) accelerated vesting of the Buy-Out RSUs. All other unvested equity awards will be forfeited.

Upon a termination of Mr. Wood’s employment without cause, or by Mr. Wood with good reason, in each case within three (3) months prior to or twelve (12) months following a change in control, Mr. Wood will be entitled to receive: (i) a lump sum amount equal to three times the sum of his base salary and target annual bonus opportunity; (ii) continued COBRA coverage for up to 36 months following termination; and (iii) accelerated vesting of all unvested equity awards, with attainment of any performance conditions under the performance stock units determined at not less than target performance and otherwise in accordance with the applicable award agreements.

Severance benefits are subject to Mr. Wood’s execution and non-revocation of a separation and general release and continued compliance with certain obligations to the Company. Mr. Wood will also be bound by the terms of the Company’s Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement, which contains perpetual confidentiality and a non-solicitation covenant that will extend for one-year following the termination of employment with the Company.
