Compensation for Named Executive Officers

On February 27, 2018, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of iRhythm Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), upon recommendation of its Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) and in consultation with the Company’s independent compensation consultant, Compensia, Inc. (“Compensia”), approved various compensation arrangements for the Company’s named executive officers (the “NEOs”).

The Committee approved new base salary and bonus opportunity targets for fiscal year 2018 for the NEOs. The table below sets forth the annual base salary and annual target bonus for the NEOs that is effective as of February 25, 2018. The bonus amounts will be determined based upon achievement of a mix of Company and individual performance objectives pursuant to the Company’s Executive Incentive Compensation Plan, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as Exhibit 10.5 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 on October 7, 2016.

Compensation for Non-Employee Directors

The Compensation Committee undertook an analysis similar to that for the executive officers with respect to evaluating the compensation of the Company’s non-employee directors. As a result of such analysis, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee and in consultation with Compensia, the Board approved an increase to the additional cash compensation payable for service as Chairman of the Board to a new total of $48,000 per year. The Board also increased the value of the initial award that a director receives under the Company’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP”) upon joining the Board to $190,000, which is benchmarked as compensation at the 50th percentile in the peer group of companies to which the Company compares itself. The directors also changed the mix of the awards from 50% options and 50% restricted stock units to 100% restricted stock units.
