On February 23, 2016, Steven T. Sobieski notified the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Insulet Corporation (the “Company”) of his desire to retire from the Board effective as of the Company’s 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2016 Annual Meeting”). On February 24, 2016, the Board accepted Mr. Sobieski’s retirement effective as of the 2016 Annual Meeting, and expressed its gratitude to Mr. Sobieski for his many years of distinguished service to the Board and the Company. Mr. Sobieski’s retirement is not related to any disagreement with the Company or the Board regarding any matter related to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.
In connection with its acceptance of Mr. Sobieski’s retirement, the Board determined that David A. Lemoine, who was recently appointed to the Board as a Class II director, will stand for election at the 2016 Annual Meeting to fill the Class III director seat being vacated. The Board further determined that the size of the Board shall be reduced effective as of the 2016 Annual Meeting from nine to eight seats, with the number of Class II seats being reduced from three to two in conjunction with Mr. Lemoine ceasing to serve as a Class II director as of such time.
