On August 30, 2022, Nicholas B. Tressler and Senseonics
Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) mutually agreed that Mr.
Tressler would transition from his role as the Company’s Chief
Financial Officer effective as of September 1, 2022. In connection
with the termination of Mr. Tressler’s service, Mr. Tressler has
entered into a transition agreement with the Company pursuant to
which he will continue his employment with the Company in an
advisory role until December 31, 2022 to support the transition to
the Company’s new Chief Financial Officer.
Effective September 1, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), the
Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) appointed
Frederick (“Rick”)
Sullivan as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (in which
capacity he will serve as the Company’s principal financial officer
and principal accounting officer).
Mr. Sullivan, 38, has
served as the Vice President
of Finance at the Company since October 2020. Mr. Sullivan
previously served as Treasurer, Head of Strategy and Financial
Planning at the Company from July 2017 to July 2018 and as
Corporate Controller at the Company from December 2011 to June
2018. From July 2018 to August 2019, Mr. Sullivan served as Chief
Financial Officer for RoosterBio, Inc., a privately held
regenerative medicine company. From August 2019 to October 2020,
Mr. Sullivan served as the Principal of Hike Financial, LLC, an
advising firm that provides financial, accounting and
administrative services to early growth, life sciences and
technology companies. Mr. Sullivan received his M.B.A. from the
University of Maryland, Robert H. Smith School of Business, his
B.S. in accounting from Salisbury University, Perdue School of
Business. Mr. Sullivan maintains an active CPA license in the state
of Maryland.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Sullivan
and any other person pursuant to which he was selected as an
officer of the Company, and there is no family relationship between
Mr. Sullivan and any of the Company’s other directors or executive

Employment Agreement with Mr. Sullivan
In connection with his appointment as the Company’s Chief Financial
Officer, on September 1, 2022, Mr. Sullivan and the Company entered
into an amended and restated employment agreement (the
“Employment Agreement”), effective on the Effective
Date.
Pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement,
Mr. Sullivan is entitled to an annual base salary of $370,000
and is eligible to receive an annual performance bonus of up to 50%
of his annual base salary based upon the Compensation Committee’s

in its sole discretion. In connection with his appointment as Chief
Financial Officer, Mr. Sullivan was also awarded 62,147 restricted
stock units (“RSUs”) on September 1, 2022 pursuant to the
Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan. The RSUs vest in eight equal
installments, with the first installment vesting on November 15,
2022 and the remaining seven installments vesting in six month
increments beginning on May 15, 2023, subject to Mr. Sullivan’s
continuous service through each applicable vesting date. If Mr.
Sullivan’s employment is terminated by us for reasons other than
for cause or if he resigns for good reason (each as defined in his
Employment Agreement), he would be entitled to receive severance
payments equal to continued payment of his base salary for one
year, a prorated portion of his target bonus for the year in which
his service is terminated, employee benefit coverage for up to one
year, reimbursement of expenses owed to him through the date of his
termination and any benefits owed to him under any qualified
retirement plan or health and welfare benefit plan in which he was
a participant, subject to his execution of a release and the
satisfaction of other specified conditions. If Mr. Sullivan’s
employment is terminated by us other than for cause or if he
resigns for good reason coincident with a change in control (as
defined in his Employment Agreement), he would be entitled to the
benefits described above , provided that, if his employment by the
Company or any successor entity is terminated by the Company or the
successor entity without cause (and not due to disability or death)
within 12 months following a change in control, 100% of his then
unvested equity awards would become fully vested. Mr. Sullivan
is also eligible to participate in the Company’s 2016 Employee
Stock Purchase Plan and employee benefit plans available to other
employees of the Company.
