| (1) | Amounts in the “Estimated Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards” columns relate to cash incentive opportunities under our 2022 Annual Bonus Plan based upon the combined achievement of corporate and individual performance goals over fiscal year 2022. The actual amounts paid to our named executive officers are set forth in the “2022 Summary Compensation Table” above, and the calculation of the actual amounts paid is discussed more fully in the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Target Annual Cash Bonus Opportunities.” Because the individual performance multipliers can range from 0-115%, the 2022 Annual Bonus Plan does not have a threshold level of performance. |
| (2) | Represents the hypothetical payments possible under our NEOs’ respective 2022 PSUs as described in the section entitled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis-Individual Compensation Elements-Annual Long-Term (LTI) Awards.” The 2022 PSUs are earned upon achievement of the Corporate Performance Measure. In addition, Mr. Blackford’s 2022 PSU will be further adjusted based on achievement of TSR versus S&P Healthcare Equipment Select Industry Index. For the NEOs other than Mr. Blackford, the threshold, target and maximum column under the header “Estimated Future Payouts Under Equity Incentive Plan Awards” represent achievement at of the Corporate Performance Measure at 72%, 100% and 128%, respectively. For Mr.Blackford’s award, the threshold, target and maximum represent achievement of the Corporate Performance Measure at 72% and the TSR percentile rank at or below 25%; Corporate Performance Measure at 100% and TSR percentile rank at 50%; and Corporate Performance Measure at 128% and TSR percentile rank at or above 75%. |
| (3) | The values of the stock awards reflect the grant date fair value of stock awards granted under our 2016 Equity Incentive Plan during 2022 and are based on the Company’s closing price on the grant date in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. For a discussion of our valuation assumptions, see Note 1 and Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023. |
