On September 3, 2024, the board of directors of Lantheus Holdings, Inc. (the “Board”), upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, appointed Julie Eastland, an experienced biotechnology and financial executive, to the Board. In connection with Ms. Eastland’s appointment, the size of the Board was increased to ten directors. Ms. Eastland was appointed as a Class I Director for a term expiring at the Lantheus 2025 annual meeting of stockholders and to serve as a member of the Audit Committee.

The Board determined that Ms. Eastland qualifies as an independent director pursuant to the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.

Ms. Eastland will enter into a customary indemnification agreement with Lantheus and Lantheus Medical Imaging, Inc., a Delaware corporation and Lantheus’ wholly-owned subsidiary. She will receive compensation for her services on the Board and its Committee in accordance with Lantheus’s current non-employee director compensation practices, comprising of: (i) cash compensation of $60,000 per year for her service as a Director, and $12,500 per year for her service as a member of the Audit Committee, in each case, prorated for partial years of service; (ii) an initial grant consisting of 50% Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) and 50% options to purchase Lantheus common stock (the “Options”) valued, in the aggregate, at $266,666.67, which is prorated for the initial partial year of service and will vest in full on the first anniversary of the grant date; and, (iii) as part of the annual equity compensation program for Directors, an annual equity grant commencing in 2025 valued at $400,000, which will vest in full on the first anniversary of the grant date.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Eastland and any other persons pursuant to which she was appointed as a director, there are no family relationships among any of the Company’s directors or executive officers and Ms. Eastland and she has no direct or indirect material interest in any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
