At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Omnicell, Inc. (the ?Company?), held on May 23, 2023 (the ?Annual Meeting?), Robin G. Seim received a greater number of votes ?withheld? from his election than votes ?for? his election to the Company?s Board of Directors (the ?Board?). As a result, and in accordance with the majority vote resignation policy in the Company?s Corporate Governance Guidelines, following the Annual Meeting, Mr. Seim submitted a letter of resignation from the Board for consideration by the Corporate Governance Committee (the ?Governance Committee?), subject to the Board?s acceptance of such resignation.
The Governance Committee further deliberated this matter and ultimately determined to recommend that the Board reject Mr. Seim?s offer of resignation from the Board; however, the Governance Committee also recommended that Mr. Seim be removed as the Chair and a member of Audit Committee, effective immediately. The Governance Committee further recommended that (i) Bruce E. Scott be appointed to serve as a member of the Audit Committee, and (ii) Mark W. Parrish be appointed as Chair of the Audit Committee, effective immediately. The Governance Committee believes that, notwithstanding the concerns identified by certain of the Company?s stockholders, Mr. Seim?s extensive knowledge of the Company and its industry, combined with his prior financial expertise and leadership experience, provide the Board with invaluable insights into the Company?s financial and business operations, the healthcare industry, as well as financial and operational matters generally. On August 10, 2023, based on these recommendations and effective immediately, the Board: (i) rejected Mr. Seim?s resignation from the Board; (ii) removed Mr. Seim as the Chair and a member of the Audit Committee; (iii) appointed Mr. Scott to the Audit Committee; and (iv) appointed Mr. Parrish as Chair of the Audit Committee. Following these actions, the Audit Committee is currently composed of three directors: Mr. Parrish (Chair), Mr. Bousa and Mr. Scott.
