TABLE OF CONTENTS


INFORMATION REGARDING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

INDEPENDENCE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

As required under the NYSE American listing rules, a majority of the members of a listed company'scompany’s board of directors must qualify as "independent,"“independent,” as affirmatively determined by the board of directors. Our Board of Directors consults with our counsel to ensure that its determinations are consistent with relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the definition of "independent,"“independent,” including those set forth in pertinent listing standards of NYSE American, as in effect from time to time.

        Our

Consistent with these considerations, our Board of Directors has undertaken a review of all relevant identified transactions or relationships between each director and director nominee, or any of his or her family members, and the independence of the directorsCompany, its senior management and its independent auditors and considered whether any director has a material relationship with us that could compromise his or her ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities. As a result of this review, our Board of Directors has determined that Messrs.Stephen DeFalco, Douglas Prince, Douglas Roeder, Sharon Larkin, Steven Edelman, Edward Fiorentino, Prince and Roeder and Drs. Barrett, Edelman and Klein,Anthony Raab, representing seven of our eight11 directors, are "independent directors"“independent directors” as defined under the listing rules of the NYSE American. In making this determination,these determinations, the Board of Directors found that none of these directors or nominees for director had a material or other disqualifying relationship with us. Dr.
Timothy Goodnow is not an independent director by virtue of his employment with us as our President and Chief Executive Officer and Francine Kaufman is not an independent director by virtue of her employment with us as our Chief Medical Officer.

Brian Hansen is not an independent director by virtue of his role as President of CGM of Ascensia Diabetes Care, our exclusive distribution partner for Eversense. By virtue of his role as Chief Operating Officer of PHC Holdings Corporation (“PHC”), Mr. Sato is not an independent director.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE

        Mr. DeFalco is

We regularly review the ChairmanBoard of Directors leadership structure. We believe the current leadership structure of the Board of Directors, in which the roles of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer are separated, best serves overall corporate structure and the Board of Director’s ability to carry out its roles and responsibilities on behalf of our stockholders, including its oversight of management and corporate governance matters. We also believe that the current structure allows our Chief Executive Officer to focus on managing the Company, while leveraging our independent Chairman’s experience to drive accountability at the Board level. Our independent Chairman of the Board, Stephen DeFalco, has authority, among other things, to call and preside overat Board meetings, including meetings of the independent directors, to set meeting agendas and to determine materials to be distributed to the Board of Directors. Accordingly, the Chairman of the Board has substantial ability to shape the work of the Board of Directors.Directors, including influencing the matters that come before the Company’s standing board committees. Additionally, as Chairman, Mr. DeFalco is available to represent the Board of Directors in communications with stockholders, our commercial partners, including Ascensia Diabetes Care, and our other stakeholders. We believe that separatingseparation of the positions of Board Chairman and Chief Executive Officer reinforces the independence of the Board in its oversight of our business and affairs. In addition, we believe that having an independent Chairman creates an environment that is more conducive to objective evaluation and oversight of management'smanagement’s performance, increasing management accountability and improving the ability of the Board of Directors to monitor whether management'smanagement’s actions are in the best interests of usthe Company and our stockholders. WeAs a result, we believe that this separationhaving an independent Chairman can enhance the effectiveness of the Board of Directors as a whole.

The Board of Directors does not have a standing risk management committee, but rather administers this oversight function directly through the Board of Directors as a whole with the

assistance of the Audit Committee, as well as through various standing committees that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our Board of Directors is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, including a determination of the nature and level of risk appropriate for us.

Our risks are considered in the development of the Company’s periodic reports and disclosure controls. Our Audit Committee also has the responsibility to consider and discuss our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which


risk assessment and management is undertaken. The Audit Committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.requirements and reviews cybersecurity risks. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee monitors the effectiveness of our corporate governance principles, including whether they are successful in preventing illegal or improper liability-creating conduct. Our Compensation Committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking. It is the responsibility of the committee chairs to report findings regarding material risk exposures to the Board of Directors as quickly as possible. The Board of Directors has delegated to the Chairman of the Board of Directors the responsibility of coordinating between the Board of Directors and management with regard to the determination and implementation of responses to any problematic risk management issues.

Compensation CommitteeCOMPENSATION COMMITTEE

The Compensation Committee is composed of threefour directors: Messrs.Mr. Roeder, andMr. Fiorentino, and Dr. Klein. In addition, our Board of Directors has also appointed Dr. Edelman toand Ms. Larkin, with Mr. Roeder serving as Chair. All members of the Compensation Committee effective upon the date of the Annual Meeting. Messrs. Roeder and Fiorentino and Drs. Klein and Edelman are independent, as independence is currently defined in Section 805 of the NYSE American Company Guide. The Compensation Committee met threefour times during the fiscal year. The Board of Directors has adopted a written Compensation Committee charter that is available to stockholders on our website at www.senseonics.com.

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors acts on behalf of the Board of Directors to review, adopt and oversee our compensation strategy, policies, plans and programs, including:


establishment of corporate and individual performance objectives relevant to the compensation of our executive officers and members of senior management and evaluation of performance in light of these stated objectives;


review and approval of the compensation and other terms of employment or service, including severance and change-in-control arrangements, of our Chief Executive Officer and the other executive officers;


compensation of our non-employee directors; and


administration of our equity compensation plans and similar plans or programs.

Compensation Committee Processes and Procedures
Typically, the Compensation Committee meets quarterly and with greater frequency if necessary. The agenda for each meeting is usually developed by the Chair of the Compensation Committee, in consultation with our Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee meets regularly in executive session.
However, from time to time, various members of management and other employees as well as outside advisors or consultants may be invited by the Compensation Committee to make presentations, to provide financial or other background information or advice or to otherwise participate in Compensation Committee meetings. The Chief Executive Officer may not participate in, or be present during, any deliberations or determinations of the Compensation Committee regarding his compensation or individual performance objectives. The charter of the Compensation Committee grants the Compensation Committee full access to all of our books, records, facilities and personnel. In addition, under the charter, the Compensation Committee has the authority to obtain, at our expense, advice and assistance from compensation consultants and internal and external legal, accounting or other advisors and other external resources that the Compensation Committee considers necessary or appropriate in the performance of its duties. The Compensation Committee has direct responsibility for the oversight of the work of any consultants or advisers engaged for the purpose of advising the Committee. In particular, the Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain, in its sole discretion, compensation consultants to assist in its evaluation of executive and director compensation, including the authority to approve the consultant'sconsultant’s reasonable fees and other retention terms. Under the charter, the Compensation Committee may select, or receive advice from, a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser to the Compensation Committee, other than in-house legal counsel and certain other types of advisers, only after taking into consideration six factors, prescribed by the SEC and NYSE American, that bear upon the adviser'sadviser’s independence; however, there is no requirement that any adviser be independent.

During the past fiscal year, after taking into consideration the six factors prescribed by the SEC and NYSE American described above, the Compensation Committee engaged Willis Towers Watson as compensation consultants. The Compensation Committee has assessed Willis Towers Watson'sWatson’s independence and determined that Willis Towers Watson had no conflicts of interest in connection with its provisions of services to the Compensation Committee. Specifically, the Compensation Committee engaged Willis Towers Watson to suggest a peer company group composed of public companies comparable to us and conduct


an executive compensation assessment analyzing the current cash and equity compensation of our executive officers, directors and other senior management against compensation for similarly situated executives at our peer group companies. Our management did not have the ability to direct Willis Towers Watson'sWatson’s work.


16


Historically, the Compensation Committee has made most of the significant adjustments to annual compensation, determined bonus and equity awardsbonuses and established new performance objectives at one or more meetings held during the first quarter of the year, and the Compensation Committee has approved annual equity awards to executives at a meeting held during the second quarter of the year. The Compensation Committee also considers matters related to individual compensation, such as compensation for new executive hires, as well as high-level strategic issues, such as the efficacy of our compensation strategy, potential modifications to that strategy and new trends, plans or approaches to compensation, at various meetings throughout the year. Generally, the Compensation Committee'sCommittee’s process comprises two related elements: the determination of compensation levels and the establishment of performance objectives for the current year. For executives other than the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee solicits and considers evaluations and recommendations submitted to the Compensation Committee by the Chief Executive Officer. In the case of the Chief Executive Officer, the evaluation of his performance is conducted by the Compensation Committee, which determines any adjustments to his compensation as well as awards to be granted. For all executives and directors as part of its deliberations, the Compensation Committee may review and consider, as appropriate, materials such as financial reports and projections, operational data, tax and accounting information, tally sheets that set forth the total compensation that may become payable to executives in various hypothetical scenarios, executive and director stock ownership information, stock performance data, analyses of historical executive compensation levels and current compensation levels and recommendations of the Compensation Committee'sCommittee’s compensation consultant, including analyses of executive and director compensation paid at other companies identified by the consultant to be comparable to us.

Nominating and Corporate Governance CommitteeNOMINATING AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for identifying, reviewing and evaluating candidates to serve as our directors (consistent with criteria approved by the Board of Directors), reviewing and evaluating incumbent directors, recommending to the Board of Directors for selection candidates for election to the Board of Directors, making recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding the membership of the committees of the Board of Directors, and assessing the performance of management and the Board of Directors.

Directors, and developing a set of corporate governance principles for the Company.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is composed of fivefour directors: Messrs.Mr. DeFalco, Mr. Prince, andMr. Roeder and Drs. Barrett and Edelman.Dr. Edelman, with Mr. DeFalco serving as Chair. All members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent (as independence is currently defined in Section 803A of the NYSE American Company Guide). The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met one timethree times during 2017.2023. The Board of Directors has adopted a written Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charter that is available to stockholders on our website at www.senseonics.com.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes that candidates for director should have certain minimum qualifications, including the ability to read and understand basic financial statements, being over 21 years of age and having the highest personal integrity and ethics. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also intends to consider such factors as possessing relevant expertise upon which to be able to offer advice and guidance to management, having sufficient time to devote to our affairs, demonstrated excellence in his or her field, having the ability to exercise sound business judgment and having the commitment to rigorously represent the long-term interests of our stockholders. However, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee retains the right to modify these qualifications from time to time. Candidates for director nominees are reviewed in the context of the current composition of the Board of Directors, our operating requirements and the


long-term interests of stockholders. In conducting this assessment, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee typically considers diversity, age, skills and such other factors as it deems appropriate, given the current needs of us and the Board of Directors, to maintain a balance of knowledge, experience and capability.

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have a formal policy regarding board diversity. Diversity is one of a number of factors, however, that the committee takes into account in identifying nominees, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes that it is essential that the board members represent diverse viewpoints and experiences and possesses the appropriate balance of professional and industry knowledge, financial expertise and high-level management experience necessary to

17


oversee and direct our business. To accomplish the Board’s diversity objectives, the Nominating and Governance Committee may retain an executive search firm to help identify potential directors that meet these objectives.
In the case of incumbent directors whose terms of office are set to expire, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews these directors'directors’ overall service to us during their terms, including the number of meetings attended, level of participation, quality of performance and any other relationships and transactions that might impair the directors'directors’ independence. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also takes into account the results of the self-evaluation or surveys of the Board of Directors, conducted annually on a group and individual basis.annually. In the case of new director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also determines whether the nominee is independent for NYSE American purposes, which determination is based upon applicable NYSE American listing standards, applicable SEC rules and regulations and the advice of counsel, if necessary. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee then uses its network of contacts to compile a list of potential candidates, but may also engage, if it deems appropriate, a professional search firm. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts any appropriate and necessary inquiries into the backgrounds and qualifications of possible candidates after considering the function and needs of the Board of Directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meets to discuss and consider the candidates'candidates’ qualifications and then selects a nominee for recommendation to the Board of Directors by majority vote.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not intend to alter the manner in which it evaluates candidates, including the minimum criteria set forth above, based on whether or not the candidate was recommended by a stockholder. Stockholders who wish to recommend individuals for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to become nominees for election to the Board of Directors may do so by delivering a written recommendation to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in care of our Corporate Secretary at 20451 Seneca Meadows Parkway, Germantown, Maryland 20876-7005. Any such recommendation should be delivered at least 90 days, but no more than 120 days, prior to the anniversary date of the mailing of our proxy statement for the last Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Submissions must include the full name of the proposed nominee, a description of the proposed nominee'snominee’s business experience for at least the previous five years, complete biographical information, a description of the proposed nominee'snominee’s qualifications as a director and a representation that the nominating stockholder is a beneficial or record holder of our stock and has been a holder for at least one year. Any such submission must be accompanied by the written consent of the proposed nominee to be named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected.

Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy
In November 2023, the Compensation Committee adopted the Senseonics Holdings, Inc.

PROPOSAL NO. 2
ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company’s stockholders are entitled to vote to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with SEC rules. This advisory (non-binding) vote is commonly referred to as a “say-on-pay” vote.
This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of the Company’s named executive officers and the policies and practices described in this proxy statement. The compensation of the Company’s named executive officers subject to the say-on-pay vote is disclosed in the compensation tables and the related narrative disclosures that accompany the compensation tables contained in the “Executive Compensation” section of this proxy statement. As described in those disclosures, the Company believes that its compensation policies and decisions are strongly aligned with our stockholder’s interests and consistent with current market practices. Compensation of the Company’s named executive officers is designed to enable the Company to attract and retain talented and experienced executives to lead the Company successfully in a competitive environment.
Accordingly, the Board of Directors is asking the stockholders to indicate their support for the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as described in this proxy statement by casting a non-binding advisory vote “FOR” the following resolution:
“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the compensation tables and any related narrative disclosures that accompany the compensation tables in the Company’s proxy statement for its 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, is hereby APPROVED.”
Because the say-on-pay vote is advisory, it is not binding on the Board of Directors or the Company. Nevertheless, the views expressed by the stockholders, whether through this say-on-pay vote or otherwise, are important to management and the Board of Directors and, accordingly, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee intend to consider the results of this say-on-pay vote in making determinations in the future regarding executive compensation arrangements.
Advisory approval of this proposal requires the vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the Annual Meeting.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS
A VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL NO. 2.

Since inception, the Company's businessCompany has suffered substantial operating losses, principally from expenses associated with the Company’s research and development programs and commercial launch of the Eversense® E3 CGM System (for use up to six months) in both the United States and Europe, and the launch of our legacy versions, including Eversense CGM System in the United States (for use up to 90 days) and the Eversense CGM and Eversense XL CGM Systems (for use up to six months) in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. The Company has not generated significant profit from the sale of products and its ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability largely depends on the Company’s ability to successfully expand the commercialization of Eversense, continue the development of its products and product upgrades, and to obtain necessary regulatory approvals or productscertifications for the sale of those products. These activities will require significant uses of working capital through 2024 and beyond. The Company generated total gross profit of $3.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 and had an accumulated deficit of $869.3 million at December 31, 2023. To date, the Company has funded its operations principally through the acquisitionissuance of other businessespreferred stock, common stock, convertible note issuance and debt. In the future, we will require additional financing to fund working capital and pay our obligations and we may pursue financing opportunities through the issuance of debt or products;equity. However, unless our stockholders approve this proposal, we will not have sufficient unissued and other purposes.

        The affirmative voteunreserved authorized shares to engage in such transactions.

Further, our success also depends in part on our continued ability to attract, retain, and motivate highly qualified management and key personnel. If this proposal is not approved by our stockholders, the lack of the holders of a majority of the outstandingunissued and unreserved authorized shares of common stock willto provide future equity incentive opportunities could adversely impact our ability to achieve these goals.
The additional shares of common stock that would become available for issuance if the proposal were adopted could also be requiredused to approveoppose a hostile takeover attempt or to delay or prevent changes in control or management of the Company. For example, without further stockholder approval, the Board could strategically sell shares of common stock in a private transaction to purchasers who would oppose a takeover or favor the current Board. Although this proposal to increase the authorized common stock has been prompted by business and financial considerations and not by the threat of any hostile takeover attempt (nor is the Board currently aware of any such attempts directed at the Company), nevertheless, stockholders should be aware that approval of this proposal could facilitate future efforts by the Company to deter or prevent changes in control of the Company, including transactions in which the stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then current market prices.
If the proposed amendment is approved, no further action by stockholders would be necessary prior to the Company's Amended and Restated Certificateissuance of Incorporation.

Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

We review compensation annually for all employees, including our named executive officers. In setting executive base salaries and bonuses and granting equity incentive awards, we consider compensation for comparable positions in the market, the historical compensation levels of our executives, individual performance as compared to our expectations and objectives, our desire to motivate our employees to achieve short- and long-term results that are in the best interests of our stockholders, and a long-term commitment to our Company. We do not target a specific competitive position or a specific mix of compensation among base salary, bonus or long-term incentives.

Equity Incentive PlansDIRECTOR COMPENSATION

2015 Equity Incentive PlanNon-Employee Director Compensation

        The Senseonics, Incorporated board of directors adopted our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2015 plan"), on December 1, 2015, and the Senseonics, Incorporated stockholders subsequently approved the 2015 Plan on December 4, 2015. In connection with the Acquisition, we assumed the 2015 plan, including all awards that were then outstanding under the 2015 plan. In connection with our 2016 public offering, in February 2016, our Board of Directors adopted and our stockholders approved an Amended and Restated 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, or the amended and restated 2015 plan. The amended and restated 2015 plan became effective on March 17, 2016.

Authorized Shares

        The number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to equity awards under the 2015 plan was initially 839,000 shares. Pursuant to the amended and restated 2015 plan, which become effective upon the pricing of our 2016 public offering, the number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to equity awards was initially up to 17,251,115 shares, representing 8,000,000 shares plus up to an additional 9,251,115 shares, in the event that options that were outstanding under the 1997 plan as of February 16, 2016 expire or otherwise terminate without having been exercised (in such case, the shares not acquired will revert to and become available for issuance under the amended and restated 2015 plan). The number of shares of our common stock reserved for issuance under our amended and restated 2015 plan will automatically increase on January 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2017 and ending on January 1, 2026, by 3.5% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding on December 31 of the preceding calendar year, or a lesser number of shares as may be determined by our Board of Directors. The maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to exercise of incentive stock options under the amended and restated 2015 plan will be 17,251,115 shares. As of December 31, 2017, a total of 2,554,921 shares were available for future issuance and options to purchase 16,395,080 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $1.61 per share were outstanding. As of January 1, 2018, the number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the amended and restated 2015 plan was automatically increased by 4,790,896 shares,


representing 3.5% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on December 31, 2017, increasing the number of shares of common stock remaining available for issuance under the amended and restated 2015 plan to 7,474,634 shares.

        Shares issued under our 2015 plan may be authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of our common stock. Shares subject to stock awards granted under our 2015 plan that expire or terminate without being exercised in full, or that are paid out in cash rather than in shares, will not reduce the number of shares available for issuance under our 2015 plan. Additionally, shares issued pursuant to stock awards under our 2015 plan that we repurchase or that are forfeited, as well as shares reacquired by us as consideration for the exercise or purchase price of a stock award or to satisfy tax withholding obligations related to a stock award, will become available for future grant under our 2015 plan.

Administration

        Our Board of Directors, or a duly authorized committee thereof, has the authority to administer our 2015 plan. Our Board of Directors has delegated its authority to administer our 2015 plan to our compensation committee under the terms of the Compensation Committee's charter. Our Board of Directors may also delegate to one or more of our officers the authority to (i) designate employees other than officers to receive specified stock awards and (ii) determine the number of shares of our common stock to be subject to such stock awards. Subject to the terms of our 2015 plan, the administrator has the authority to determine the terms of awards, including recipients, the exercise price or strike price of stock awards, if any, the number of shares subject to each stock award, the fair market value of a share of our common stock, the vesting schedule applicable to the awards, together with any vesting acceleration, the form of consideration, if any, payable upon exercise or settlement of the stock award and the terms and conditions of the award agreements for use under our 2015 plan.

        The administrator has the power to modify outstanding awards under our 2015 plan. Subject to the terms of our 2015 plan, the administrator has the authority to reprice any outstanding option or stock appreciation right, cancel and re-grant any outstanding option or stock appreciation right in exchange for new stock awards, cash or other consideration or take any other action that is treated as a repricing under GAAP with the consent of any adversely affected participant.

Section 162(m) Limits

        No participant may be granted stock awards covering more than 1,000,000 shares of our common stock under our 2015 plan during any calendar year pursuant to stock options, stock appreciation rights and other stock awards whose value is determined by reference to an increase over an exercise price or strike price of at least 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Additionally, no participant may be granted in a calendar year a performance stock award covering more than 1,000,000 shares of our common stock or a performance cash award having a maximum value in excess of $3.0 million under our 2015 plan. Prior to the repeal of the exemption from the deduction limit for "performance-based compensation" under Section 162(m) of the Code under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, these limitations enabled us to grant awards that are intended to be exempt from the $1.0 million limitation on the income tax deductibility of compensation paid per covered executive officer imposed by Section 162(m) of the Code.

Performance Awards

        Our 2015 plan permits the grant of performance-based stock and cash awards that was eligible to qualify as performance-based compensation that is not subject to the $1.0 million limitation on the income tax deductibility of compensation paid per covered executive officer imposed by Section 162(m) of the Code prior to the repeal of that exemption. To enable us to grant performance-based awards that will qualify, our compensation committee can structure such awards so that the stock or cash will be issued or paid pursuant to such award only following the achievement of specified pre-established performance goals during a designated performance period.


Corporate Transactions

        Our 2015 plan provides that in the event of a specified corporate transaction, including without limitation a consolidation, merger or similar transaction involving our Company, the sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of our Company or the consolidated assets of our Company and our subsidiaries, or a sale or disposition of at least 50% of the outstanding capital stock of our Company, the administrator will determine how to treat each outstanding equity award. The administrator may:

    arrange for the assumption, continuation or substitution of a stock award by a successor corporation;

    arrange for the assignment of any reacquisition or repurchase rights held by us to a successor corporation;

    accelerate the vesting of the stock award and provide for its termination prior to the effective time of the corporate transaction;

    arrange for the lapse, in whole or in part, of any reacquisition or repurchase right held by us; or

    cancel the stock award prior to the transaction in exchange for a cash payment, which may be reduced by the exercise price payable in connection with the stock award.

        The administrator is not obligated to treat all equity awards or portions of equity awards, even those that are of the same type, in the same manner. The administrator may take different actions with respect to the vested and unvested portions of an equity award.

Change of Control

        The administrator may provide, in an individual award agreement or in any other written agreement between us and the participant, which the equity award will be subject to additional acceleration of vesting and exercisability in the event of a change of control. In the absence of such a provision, no such acceleration of the award will occur.

Plan Amendment or Termination

        Our Board of Directors has the authority to amend, suspend or terminate our 2015 plan, provided that such action does not materially impair the existing rights of any participant without such participant's written consent. No incentive stock options may be granted after the tenth anniversary of the date our Board of Directors adopted our 2015 plan.

1997 Stock Option Plan

        The Board of Directors and stockholders of Senseonics, Incorporated approved the 1997 plan, which became effective in March 1997, and it was further amended and restated by the Senseonics, Incorporated board of directors and stockholders most recently in June 2011. In connection with the Acquisition, we assumed the 1997 plan. As of December 31, 2017, there were outstanding stock options covering a total of 8,313,601 shares granted under the 1997 plan.

        Upon the effectiveness of the 2015 Plan, we no longer grant awards under the 1997 plan.

        Types of Awards.    The 1997 plan provided for the grant of incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options. Nonqualified stock options may be granted to employees, including officers, non-employee directors and consultants of us and our affiliates. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees.


        Share Reserve.    The aggregate number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to stock options under the 1997 plan was 10,644,109 shares, less any shares issued as restricted stock, which was also the maximum number of shares that may be issued upon the exercise of ISOs under the 1997 plan.

        If a stock option granted under the 1997 plan expires, terminates or is otherwise canceled without being exercised in full, or if we reacquire shares of unvested common stock issued pursuant to the founder's stock purchase agreements, the shares of our common stock not acquired pursuant to the stock option or forfeited will again become available for subsequent issuance as options under the 2015 plan.

        Administration.    Our Board of Directors, or a duly authorized committee thereof, has the authority to administer the 1997 plan. Subject to the terms of the 1997 plan, the Board of Directors or the authorized committee, referred to herein as the plan administrator, had full power and authority to take all actions and make all determinations required or provided under the 1997 plan and any stock option agreement for stock options granted under the 1997 plan. The plan administrator determined recipients, dates of grant, the numbers and types of stock options to be granted and the terms and conditions of the stock options, including the period of their exercisability and vesting schedule. Subject to the limitations set forth below, the plan administrator also determined the exercise price of stock options granted and the types of consideration to be paid upon exercise of stock options.

        Stock Options.    Incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options were granted pursuant to stock option agreements adopted by the plan administrator. The plan administrator determined the exercise price for a stock option, within the terms and conditions of the 1997 plan, provided that the exercise price of a stock option cannot be less than the greater of par value or 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the 1997 plan vest at the rate specified by the plan administrator.

        The plan administrator determined the term of stock options granted under the 1997 plan. In accordance with an optionholder's stock option agreement, if an optionholder's service relationship with us, or any of our affiliates, ceases for any reason other than disability, death or cause, the optionholder may generally exercise any vested options for a period of three months following the cessation of service. If an optionholder's service relationship with us or any of our affiliates ceases due to disability or death, the optionholder may generally exercise any vested options for a period of 12 months following disability or death. In the event of a termination for cause, options generally terminate immediately upon the termination of the individual for cause. In no event may an option be exercised beyond the expiration of its term.

        Acceptable consideration for the purchase of common stock issued upon the exercise of a stock option were determined by the plan administrator and included in the option agreement and may include (i) cash or check, (ii) the tender of shares of the common stock of Senseonics, Incorporated previously owned by the optionholder, (iii) a combination of the foregoing, and (iv) after our shares of common stock become publicly traded on an established securities market, a broker-assisted cashless exercise.

        Unless the plan administrator provides otherwise in the stock option agreement governing the terms of the option, options generally are not transferable except by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a domestic relations order.

        Tax Limitations on Incentive Stock Options.    The aggregate fair market value, determined at the time of grant, of our common stock with respect to incentive stock options that are exercisable for the first time by an optionholder during any calendar year under all of our stock plans may not exceed $100,000. Options or portions thereof that exceed such limit will generally be treated as nonqualified stock options. No incentive stock option may be granted to any person who, at the time of the grant,


owns or is deemed to own stock possessing more than 10% of our total combined voting power or that of any of our affiliates unless (i) the option exercise price is at least 110% of the fair market value of the stock subject to the option on the date of grant, and (ii) the option is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date of grant.

        Changes to Capital Structure.    In the event that there is a specified type of change in our capital structure, such as a stock split or recapitalization, appropriate adjustments will be made to (i) the class and maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the 1997 plan and (ii) the class and number of shares and exercise price, strike price, or purchase price of all outstanding stock options.

        Certain Reorganizations and Mergers.    If we are the surviving corporation in any reorganization, merger or consolidation with any other corporation, the number and class of shares and the exercise price subject to stock options previously granted under the 1997 plan will be proportionately adjusted to reflect the transaction.

        Other Corporate Transactions.    In the event of (i) our dissolution or liquidation, (ii) a merger, consolidation or reorganization following which we are not the surviving corporation, (iii) a sale of substantially all of our assets to another person or entity or (iv) any transaction that results in a change in control, the 1997 plan and all stock options granted under the 1997 plan will terminate, unless in connection with the transaction the Board of Directors approves the continuation of the 1997 plan, the assumption of outstanding stock options by the successor corporation or the substitution of outstanding options for new options covering stock of the successor corporation or its parent, with appropriate adjustments to the number and kind of shares and the exercise prices of the stock options. In the event the 1997 plan and outstanding stock options are terminated in connection with a transaction, the optionholders will have an opportunity to exercise their vested outstanding stock options before the occurrence of the transaction during such period as determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion.

        Under the 1997 plan, a change in control is generally defined as any transaction that results in any person or entity, other than a person or entity who was a holder of Senseonics, Incorporated securities on June 30, 1998, owning 50% or more of the combined voting power of all classes of our stock, unless (i) the person or entity becomes the owner of 50% or more of the combined voting power of our stock due to our issuing new securities to the person or entity (other than an issuance pursuant to an underwritten public offering in which the acquisition is not approved by the Board of Directors) or (ii) at least two-thirds of members of the Board of Directors determine that the transaction does not constitute a change in control for purposes of the 1997 plan.

        Amendment and Termination.    The Senseonics, Incorporated board of directors has the authority to amend, suspend, or terminate the 1997 plan, provided that such action does not alter or impair the existing rights or obligations of any participant without such participant's written consent.

2016 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

        In February 2016, our Board of Directors adopted and our stockholders approved a 2016 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or our 2016 ESPP. The 2016 ESPP became effective on March 17, 2016. We have no current plans to grant purchase rights under our 2016 ESPP.

        The maximum number of shares of our common stock that may be issued under our 2016 ESPP was initially 800,000 shares. Additionally, the number of shares of our common stock reserved for issuance under our 2016 ESPP will automatically increase on January 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2017 and ending on and including January 1, 2026, by 1.0% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding on December 31 of the preceding calendar year; provided, however, our Board of Directors may act prior to the first day of any calendar year to provide that there will be no January 1 increase in the share reserve for such calendar year or that the increase in the share reserve


for such calendar year will be a lesser number of shares of common stock. As of January 1, 2018, the number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2016 ESPP was automatically increased by 1,368,827 shares, representing 1.0% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on December 31, 2017, increasing the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the amended and restated 2015 plan to 3,104,523 shares. Shares subject to purchase rights granted under our 2016 ESPP that terminate without having been exercised in full will not reduce the number of shares available for issuance under our 2016 ESPP.

        Our Board of Directors, or a duly authorized committee thereof, will administer our 2016 ESPP. We expect our Board of Directors will delegate its authority to administer our 2016 ESPP to our Compensation Committee under the terms of the Compensation Committee's charter.

        Employees, including executive officers, of ours or any of our designated affiliates may have to satisfy one or more of the following service requirements before participating in our 2016 ESPP, as determined by the administrator: (i) customary employment with us or one of our affiliates for more than 20 hours per week and more than five months per calendar year; or (ii) continuous employment with us or one of our affiliates for a minimum period of time, not to exceed two years, prior to the first date of an offering. An employee may not be granted rights to purchase stock under our 2016 ESPP if such employee (i) immediately after the grant would own stock possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of our common stock, or (ii) holds rights to purchase stock under our 2016 ESPP that would accrue at a rate that exceeds $25,000 worth of our stock for each calendar year that the rights remain outstanding.

        A component of our 2016 ESPP is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan under Section 423 of the Code and the provisions of this component will be construed in a manner that is consistent with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code. In addition, the 2016 ESPP authorizes the grant of options to purchase shares of our common stock that do not meet the requirements of Section 423 of the Code because of deviations necessary to permit participation in the 2016 ESPP by employees who are foreign nationals or employed outside of the United States while complying with applicable foreign laws. Any such options must be granted pursuant to rules, procedures or subplans adopted by our Board of Directors designed to achieve these objectives for eligible employees and our Company. The administrator may specify offerings with a duration of not more than 27 months, and may specify one or more shorter purchase periods within each offering. Each offering will have one or more purchase dates on which shares of our common stock will be purchased for the employees who are participating in the offering. The administrator, in its discretion, will determine the terms of offerings under our 2016 ESPP.

        Our 2016 ESPP permits participants to purchase shares of our common stock through payroll deductions of up to 15% of their earnings. Unless otherwise determined by the administrator, the purchase price of the shares will be 85% of the lower of the fair market value of our common stock on the first day of an offering or on the date of purchase. Participants may end their participation at any time during an offering and will be paid their accrued contributions that have not yet been used to purchase shares. Participation ends automatically upon termination of employment with us.

        A participant may not transfer purchase rights under our 2016 ESPP other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as otherwise provided under our 2016 ESPP.

        In the event of a specified corporate transaction, such as a merger or change in control of our Company, a successor corporation may assume, continue or substitute each outstanding purchase right. If the successor corporation does not assume, continue or substitute for the outstanding purchase rights, the offering in progress will be shortened and a new exercise date will be set. The participants' purchase rights will be exercised on the new exercise date and such purchase rights will terminate immediately thereafter.


        Our Board of Directors has the authority to amend, suspend or terminate our 2016 ESPP, at any time and for any reason. Our 2016 ESPP will remain in effect until terminated by our Board of Directors in accordance with the terms of the 2016 ESPP.

Non-Employee Director Compensation

        In February 2016, our Board of Directors approved a non-employee director compensation policy pursuant to which became effective upon the completion of our 2016 public offering. Under this director compensation policy, we pay each of our non-employee directors a cash retainer for service on the Board of Directors and for service on each committee on which the director is a member. The chairman of each committee receives a higher retainer for such service. These retainers are payable in arrears in four equal quarterly installments on the last day of each quarter, provided that the amount of such payment is prorated for any portion of such quarter that the director is not serving on our Board of Directors. No retainers were paid in respectThe compensation payable under the compensation policy has been determined based upon market data of any period prior to the completion of our 2016 public offering.comparable companies and recommendations presented by Willis Towers Watson.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS
RELATED-PERSON TRANSACTIONS POLICY AND PROCEDURES

We have adopted a related party transaction policy that sets forth our procedures for the identification, review, consideration and approval or ratification of related party transactions. For purposes of our policy only, a related party transaction is a transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which we and any related party are, were or will be participants in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000. Transactions involving compensation for services provided to us as an employee or director are not covered by this policy. A related party is any executive officer, director or beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities, including any of their immediate family members and any entity owned or controlled by such persons.

Under the policy, if a transaction has been identified as a related party transaction, including any transaction that was not a related party transaction when originally consummated or any transaction that was not initially identified as a related party transaction prior to consummation, our management must present information regarding the related party transaction to our Audit Committee, or, if Audit Committee approval would be inappropriate, to another independent body of our Board of Directors, for review, consideration and approval or ratification. The presentation must include a description of, among other things, the material facts, the interests, direct and indirect, of the related parties, the benefits to us of the transaction and whether the transaction is on terms that are comparable to the terms available to or from, as the case may be, an unrelated third party or to or from employees generally. Under the policy, we will collect information that we deem reasonably necessary from each director, executive officer and, to the extent feasible, significant stockholder to enable us to identify any existing or potential related-person transactions and to effectuate the terms of the policy. In addition, under our Code of Conduct, our employees and directors will have an affirmative responsibility to disclose any transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest. In considering related party transactions, our Audit Committee, or other independent body of our Board of Directors, will take into account the relevant available facts and circumstances including:


the risks, costs and benefits to us;


the impact on a director'sdirector’s independence in the event that the related party is a director, immediate family member of a director or an entity with which a director is affiliated;


the availability of other sources for comparable services or products; and


the terms available to or from, as the case may be, unrelated third parties or to or from employees generally.

The policy requires that, in determining whether to approve, ratify or reject a related party transaction, our Audit Committee, or other independent body of our Board of Directors, must consider, in light of known circumstances, whether the transaction is in, or is not inconsistent with, our best interests and those of our stockholders, as our Audit Committee, or other independent body of our Board of Directors, determines in the good faith exercise of its discretion.

CERTAIN RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Except as described below, there have been no transactions since January 1, 20172023 to which we have been a participant in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000 (which is less than one percent of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years), and in which any of our directors, executive officers or holders of more than 5% of our capital stock, or any members of their immediate family, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, other than compensation arrangements which are described under "Executive Compensation"“Executive Compensation” and "Non-Employee“Non-Employee Director Compensation."
