On December 13, 2016, the Board of Directors of Hologic, Inc. (the "Company") elected Amy M. Wendell as a director of the Company, effective December 14, 2016. Ms. Wendell has over 30 years of experience in the healthcare industry and was Senior Vice President of Strategy and Business Development for Covidien plc until its acquisition by Medtronic in 2015. Ms. Wendell is currently a Senior Advisor to Perella Weinberg Partners’ Healthcare Investment Banking Practice and McKinsey’s Strategy and Corporate Finance Practice and also serves as a member of McKinsey's Transactions Advisory Board.
Ms. Wendell, who will stand for election by stockholders at the Company’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, has been appointed to serve on the Audit and Finance Committee of the Board of Directors. As a non-employee director of the Company, Ms. Wendell will receive compensation as described in the “Director Compensation” section of the Company’s 2016 Proxy Statement, except that she received a pro-rated annual equity grant rather than a one-time sign-on equity grant.
