On June 17, 2019, M. James Barrett, a member of the Board of Directors (the “ Board ”) of Senseonics Holdings, Inc. (the “ Company ” or “ Senseonics ”), advised the Company of his intention to retire from the Board effective June 30, 2019. Dr. Barrett’s retirement is not due to any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.

Dr. Barrett founded Senseonics, Incorporated and served as its Chief Executive Officer from 1997 to 2001.  Dr. Barrett has served as a director of Senseonics, Incorporated and, subsequently, the Company since November 1996. Dr. Barrett’s vision and many talents have been central to making the Company what it is today, and his wisdom and guidance have greatly benefitted the progress to becoming a global commercial business bringing life-changing benefits to people with diabetes in several countries around the world.

The Company’s Board, executive officers and employees thank Dr. Barrett for his dedication and countless contributions to Senseonics and wish him well in his retirement.  The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board is conducting a search to identify an appropriate addition to the Board.
