ITEM 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On May 18, 2023, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of DexCom, Inc. (“Dexcom”) approved amendments to Dexcom’s current Severance and Change in Control Plan (the “Existing Severance Plan”, and, as amended, the “Restated Severance Plan”), which provides certain benefits to Dexcom’s executives. These amendments were adopted following recommendations from Dexcom’s independent compensation consultant with the intention of aligning these provisions with those of Dexcom’s peer companies and offering competitive compensation programs. This update was made pursuant to a periodic review of Dexcom’s executive benefits by the Compensation Committee of the Board. The Restated Severance Plan replaces the Existing Severance Plan. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Restated Severance Plan. The Restated Severance Plan includes the following changes to the Existing Severance Plan:

(a) Upon a termination of the Chief Executive Officer’s (the “CEO”) employment by Dexcom without Cause (excluding death or Disability) outside of the Change of Control Period, (i) the salary severance payment payable to the CEO shall be equal to 24 months (previously 18 months) and (ii) the COBRA premiums payable with respect to the CEO shall be 24 months (previously 18 months).

(b) Upon a termination of the applicable executive’s employment by Dexcom without Cause (excluding death or Disability) outside of the Change of Control Period, the bonus severance shall be equal to the applicable executive’s target bonus prorated based on length of employment during the performance period (previously calculated based on the applicable executive’s actual bonus for the performance period).

(c) Upon a termination of the applicable executive’s employment by Dexcom without Cause (excluding death or Disability) or by the executive for Good Reason within the Change of Control Period, (i) the salary severance for the CEO shall be equal to 36 months (previously 18 months) and for the Senior Vice President and C-level executives shall be equal to 24 months (previously 12 months); (ii) the COBRA premiums payable with respect to the CEO shall be equal to 36 months (previously 18 months) and with respect to the Senior Vice President and C-level executives shall be equal to 24 months (previously 12 months); and (iii) the bonus severance for the CEO shall be equal to 3x the CEO’s target bonus and for the Senior Vice President and C-level executives shall be equal to 2x of the applicable executive’s target bonus (in each case, as increased from 1x the greater of the target bonus or the actual bonus for the year in which the termination occurs).

(d) The expiration date was removed.

The foregoing description of the amendments to the Existing Severance Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Restated Severance Plan filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On May 18, 2023, Dexcom held its 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”).

(a) Proxies for the Annual Meeting were solicited pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. At the close of business on the record date, there were 387,635,623 shares outstanding and entitled to vote and 353,207,127 shares were voted online, via telephone or by proxy on the matters described below.

Shares Voted Against:	15,338,845
Shares Abstaining:	112,248

(3) Holders of Dexcom’s common stock voted to approve the non-binding vote on an advisory resolution on compensation paid to Dexcom’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including compensation discussion and analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion:
