However, if the Company determines in its sole discretion that it cannot pay the COBRA Premiums without potentially violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company will in lieu thereof provide to Executive a taxable monthly payment payable on the last day of a given month (except as provided by the following sentence), in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that Executive would be required to pay to continue Executive&#8217;s group health coverage in effect on the date of Executive&#8217;s termination of employment (which amount will be based on the premium for the first month of COBRA coverage), which payments will be made regardless of whether Executive elects COBRA continuation coverage and will commence on the month following Executive&#8217;s termination of employment and will end on the earlier of (x) the date upon which Executive obtains other employment or (y) the date upon which Executive ceases to be eligible for coverage under COBRA. For the avoidance of doubt, the taxable payments in lieu of COBRA Premiums may be used for any purpose, including, but not limited to continuation coverage under COBRA, and will be subject to all applicable tax withholdings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary under this Agreement, if at any time the Company determines in its sole discretion that it cannot provide the payments contemplated by the preceding sentence without violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), Executive will not receive such payment or any further reimbursements for COBRA premiums. (Collectively, the Company&#8217;s COBRA obligations in this paragraph are referred to as the &#8220;COBRA Payments&#8221;).</p>

When the Option is exercised, Participant generally will recognize immediate U.S. taxable income if Participant is a U.S. taxpayer. If Participant is a non-U.S. taxpayer, Participant will be subject to applicable taxes in his or her jurisdiction. Pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator may specify from time to time, the Company and/or Employer shall withhold the minimum amount required to be withheld for the payment of Tax Obligations. The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit Participant to satisfy such Tax Obligations, in whole or in part (without limitation), if permissible by applicable local law, by (a) paying cash, (b) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such Tax Obligations, (c) withholding the amount of such Tax Obligations from Participant&#8217;s wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the company and/or the Employer, (d)&nbsp;delivering to the Company already vested and owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to such Tax Obligations, or (e) selling a sufficient number of such Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant through such means as the Company may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise) equal to the amount of the Tax Obligations. To the extent determined appropriate by the Company in its discretion, it will have the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any Tax Obligations by reducing the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant. Further, if Participant is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and a date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company and/or the Employer (and/or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for tax in more than one jurisdiction. If Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any required Tax Obligations hereunder at the time of the Option exercise, Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to honor the exercise and refuse to deliver the Shares if such amounts are not delivered at the time of exercise.</p>

Under Code Section 409A, an option that vests after December 31, 2004 (or that vested on or prior to such date but which was materially modified after October 3, 2004) that was granted with a per share exercise price that is determined by the Internal Revenue Service (the &#8220;IRS&#8221;) to be less than the fair market value of a share on the date of grant (a &#8220;Discount Option&#8221;) may be considered &#8220;deferred compensation.&#8221; A Discount Option may result in (i) income recognition by Participant prior to the exercise of the option, (ii) an additional twenty percent (20%) federal income tax, and (iii) potential penalty and interest charges. The Discount Option may also result in additional state income, penalty and interest charges to Participant. Participant acknowledges that the Company cannot and has not guaranteed that the IRS will agree that the per Share Exercise Price of this Option equals or exceeds the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Date of Grant in a later examination. Participant agrees that if the IRS determines that the Option was granted with a per Share Exercise Price that was less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Date of Grant, Participant will be solely responsible for Participant&#8217;s costs related to such a determination.</p>

<p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">This Country Addendum includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Option granted to Participant under the Plan if Participant works in one of the countries listed below. If Participant is a citizen or resident of a country (or is considered as such for local law purposes) other than the one in which he or she is currently working or if Participant relocates to another country after receiving the Option, the Company will, in its discretion, determine the extent to which the terms and conditions contained herein will be applicable to Participant.</p>

<p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">Certain capitalized terms used but not defined in this Country Addendum shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan, the and/or the Award Agreement to which this Country Addendum is attached.</p>

<p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">This Country Addendum also includes notifications relating to exchange control and other issues of which Participant should be aware with respect to his or her participation in the Plan. The information is based on the exchange control, securities and other laws in effect in the countries listed in this Country Addendum, as of November 13, 2017. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that Participant not rely on the notifications herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of his or her participation in the Plan because the information may be outdated when Participant exercises the Option or sells Shares acquired under the Plan.</p>

<p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">In addition, the notifications are general in nature and may not apply to Participant&#8217;s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure Participant of any particular result. Accordingly, Participant is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in Participant&#8217;s country may apply to Participant&#8217;s situation.</p>

<p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">Finally, if Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant is currently working (or is considered as such for local law purposes) or if Participant moves to another country after the Option is granted, the information contained herein may not be applicable to Participant.</p>

[Business Wire] </b>&#8211;<b> </b>May 14, 2024 -- Pulse Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: PLSE), a company leveraging its novel and proprietary CellFX&#174; Nanosecond Pulsed Field Ablation&#8482; (nsPFA&#8482;) technology (&#8220;Pulse&#8221;),<b> </b>today announced enhancements to its executive leadership team to support its next pivotal phase of growth.</p>

<p style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">Proven atrial fibrillation medical technology leader Burke T. Barrett has been appointed President and Chief Executive Officer effective immediately. Concurrently, the Company announced the appointment of Kevin Danahy, former President and Chief Executive Officer, as Chief Commercial Officer. Mr. Danahy will now focus his full time leading the pilot launch of the recently FDA cleared CellFX nsPFA Percutaneous Electrode System.</p>

<p style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&#8220;Burke is a very talented executive, who has demonstrated strong leadership and operational acumen throughout his medical device career. With Pulse&#8217;s focus on bringing the patient and physician friendly benefits of Nanosecond Pulse Field Ablation into electrophysiology and cardiac surgery, we are thrilled to have someone with Burke&#8217;s industry stature and expertise lead team Pulse,&#8221; said Robert W. Duggan, Executive Chairman of Pulse Biosciences. &#8220;Together with Burke&#8217;s expertise and Kevin leading as Chief Commercial Officer, Pulse Biosciences is positioned to unlock the full potential of our proprietarily designed and engineered CellFX nsPFA energy delivery system and its three novel proprietary end-effector devices.&#8221;</p>

<p style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">Mr. Barrett is a hands-on leader and executive with more than 35 years of experience building teams that bring novel, complex medical devices from concept, through design validation, clinical studies, regulatory approvals, and manufacturing scale-up to commercialization. During his eighteen years at CardioFocus, Inc., Burke held a number of positions of increasing responsibility and was part of the team that built a pioneering electrophysiology ablation device and a global commercial company, departing as CEO and President. Previously, he was part of the teams that successfully took two companies public, Biofield Corp. and Cyberkinetics Neurotechnology Systems, Inc., and has been an officer of two public companies &#8211; Cyberonics, Inc., as Vice President of Business and Technology Development, and Cyberkinetics, as Vice President of Clinical Operations. Mr.&nbsp;Barrett was also an active member of the FDA&#8217;s Circulatory System Medical Devices Advisory Panel for four years. Currently, he sits on the Board of Directors of VDI Technologies. Mr. Barrett holds Bachelor&#8217;s degrees in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering from Syracuse University and a Masters in Business Administration from Kennesaw State University.</p>

<p style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&#8220;Joining Team Pulse at this important time for the Company represents a unique and exciting opportunity to make a material difference for the betterment of patients, physicians, and care givers,&#8221; added Mr. Barrett. &#8220;I&#8217;ve spent the majority of my career working closely with electrophysiologists and introducing them to novel technologies, and I believe that CellFX nsPFA energy has the potential to advance the standard of care for the treatment of atrial fibrillation and additional disease states. The preclinical and initial clinical data provides a solid foundation to build upon, as we continue to seek regulatory approvals in the United States and other parts of the world. I look forward to working closely with the talented executive team and Board of Directors as Pulse enters this next phase of growth.&#8221;</p>

<p style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&#8220;It is an honor to be a key team member in leading Pulse Biosciences into this iconic and historic opportunity. I look forward to working closely with Burke in both learning from his vast experience as well as sharing my knowledge and experience with him as Team Pulse Biosciences launches our novel CellFX nsPFA Percutaneous Electrode System and achieves meaningful progress toward commercial opportunities in cardiac ablation,&#8221; said Kevin Danahy.</p>
