Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On May 31, 2022, Outset Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders at 10:00 a.m. local time in a virtual format via live audio webcast (the “Annual Meeting”). As of April 5, 2022, the Company’s record date, there were a total of 47,784,412 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the beginning of the Annual Meeting, 43,737,392 shares of common stock were present virtually in person or by proxy, and, therefore, a quorum was present. Four items of business were acted upon by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting. The final results for the votes regarding each proposal are set forth below.
Proposal One: Election of Class II Directors
Each of D. Keith Grossman and Patrick T. Hackett was elected to serve as a class II director to hold office until the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders and until the election and qualification of his successor. Votes were cast as follows:

Patrick T. Hackett |
|

|
9,341,418 |
|
1,724,412 |
Since the Board is divided into three classes with one class elected each year to hold office for a three-year term, the following directors continued to serve as directors of the Company immediately after the Annual Meeting: Karen Drexler, Jim Hinrichs, Dale E. Jones, Andrea L. Saia, Catherine Szyman and Leslie Trigg.
Proposal Two: Advisory Vote on Named Executive Officer Compensation
The Company’s stockholders approved, on a non-binding advisory basis, the 2021 compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in its 2022 proxy statement by the following vote:

Proposal Three: Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes on Named Executive Officer Compensation
The Company’s stockholders approved, on a non-binding advisory basis, holding future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation at a frequency of “every one year” by the following vote:

|

As disclosed in the Company’s 2022 proxy statement, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) previously approved a frequency of “every one year” for future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation, subject to the same frequency receiving the highest number of votes from stockholders at the Annual Meeting. As the frequency of “every one year” received the highest number of votes from stockholders at the Annual Meeting, the Board has determined that future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation will be held annually. The Board will re-evaluate this determination in connection with the next required stockholder advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation (which will be held at the Company’s 2028 annual meeting of stockholders, unless presented earlier).
Proposal Four: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The stockholders ratified the appointment of KPMG LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 by the following vote:
