Company Incentive Bonus Plan

On March 11, 2021, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of DexCom, Inc. (“DexCom”) approved an Incentive Bonus Plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to which DexCom may adopt bonus programs for all employees of DexCom that do not participate in a sales-based commission incentive plan (the “Participants”). The purpose of the Plan is to motivate, retain, attract and reward employees. The Plan is effective as of March 11, 2021.

The Plan is to be administered by the Committee, and under the terms of the Plan, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may delegate certain authority under the Plan to one or more directors and/or officers of DexCom.

The Plan is designed to award a bonus based on achievement of certain performance metrics as set forth in the Plan, which may include, among other things, financial, corporate, operational and individual performance goals (the “Performance Goals”) during performance periods, which may be annual, quarterly or other time periods (each, a “Performance Period”), as determined by the Committee under the Plan. The Committee will establish the Performance Goals for each Participant and individual Participant incentive targets, which may be based on the Participant’s base salary (each a, “Target Award”). Upon achievement of a Participant’s Performance Goals during a Performance Period, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may elect to pay the Participant an actual award, which may be below, at or above the Target Award (as so determined, an “Award”).

Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Awards will be paid in the first quarter of the fiscal year following the end of the Performance Period. Participants must still be employed by DexCom at the time of the payment of the Award, subject to certain exceptions.

Each Award generally will be paid in cash in a single lump sum. However, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may elect to settle an Award with an equity award under DexCom’s then-current equity compensation plan, which equity award may have such terms and conditions, including vesting, as determined by the Committee.

The foregoing description of the Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1.

2021 Bonus Plan

On March 11, 2021, the Committee approved a management bonus plan (the “2021 Bonus Plan”) under the term of the Plan with specified goals for fiscal 2021 for DexCom’s employees, including its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer and its other officers. Bonuses under the 2021 Bonus Plan for Vice Presidents and above(the “Officers”), which includes our named executive officers, shall be calculated based on each Officer’s target bonus amount multiplied by company performance factor.

Target Bonus

The target bonus for DexCom’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer is 125% of his base salary; for Executive Vice Presidents is 75% of their base salaries; for Senior Vice Presidents is 50% of their base salaries and for Vice Presidents is 40% of their base salaries.

Company Performance Factor

For DexCom’s Officers, the amount of any bonus paid under the 2021 Bonus Plan will be predicated on achieving a targeted annual revenue goal with 60% weighting (the “Revenue Component”), a targeted non-GAAP operating margin goal with 20% weighting (the “Margin Component”), and an operational performance milestone comprised of multiple strategic goals with a total 20% weighting (the “Operational Component”).

Under the 2021 Bonus Plan, no portion of the Revenue Component shall be paid unless DexCom meets a specified minimum annual revenue goal for fiscal 2021. If this minimum annual revenue goal is achieved, the Officer will receive a bonus award of 50% of their targeted Revenue Component. If this minimum annual revenue goal is exceeded, the Officer will receive a bonus award at various stepped up amounts up to a maximum of 175% of their targeted Revenue Component.

Under the 2021 Bonus Plan, no portion of the Margin Component shall be paid unless DexCom meets a specified margin goal for fiscal 2021. If this specified margin goal is achieved, the Officer will receive a bonus award of 50% of their targeted Margin Component. If this specified margin goal is exceeded, the Officer will receive a bonus award at various stepped up amounts up to a maximum of 175% of their targeted Margin Component.

Under the 2021 Bonus Plan, the Operational Component shall be paid to Officers for achieving operational performance goals. The Officers will receive a portion of their targeted Operational Component for achievement of specified performance milestones by DexCom during fiscal 2021. Each performance milestone is weighted 5% or 10% of the overall bonus. If none are achieved, no portion of the Operational Component shall be paid.

The maximum funding of the 2021 Bonus Plan for Officers shall not exceed the maximum funding of the 2021 Bonus Plan for employees below the rank of Vice President. In addition, if any of the three goals within the Operational Component are not achieved, the bonus amount under the 2021 Bonus Plan otherwise payable to Officers will be reduced by the percentage of the goal(s) missed.
