On April 15, 2024, the Board of Directors of Exact Sciences Corporation (the “Company”) announced the appointment of Aaron Bloomer as the
Company’s new Chief Financial Officer, effective May 15, 2024.
Mr. Bloomer, age 38, previously served as the Vice President, Corporate Financial Planning, Reporting, and Analytics for Baxter International Inc. (NYSE: BAX), where he led Baxter International’s global financial planning and reporting function. Prior to joining Baxter International in August 2021, Mr. Bloomer held a series of increasingly senior roles with 3M Company (NYSE: MMM) from June 2008 to August 2021, including Senior Vice President, Corporate Financial Planning, Reporting and Analytics of 3M, Vice President and CFO of 3M’s Greater China area, Global Director and Division CFO for 3M’s Display Materials Division, and Global Senior Finance Manager and Division CFO of 3M’s Consumer Health Care Division. Mr. Bloomer received a bachelor’s degree in business administration from the University
of Wisconsin Eau Claire and an M.B.A. from the University of Minnesota.
Mr. Bloomer joined the Company on April 15 as Executive Vice President, Finance and will serve in this role until he assumes the role and title of Chief Financial Officer on May 15, 2024. In connection with his appointment, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Bloomer (the “Employment Agreement”), pursuant to which he will receive an annual base salary of $600,000 and will be eligible to earn an annual performance bonus of up to 70% of his then current base salary. The Company will also pay Mr. Bloomer
a $250,000 relocation bonus and pay for reasonable moving expenses incurred in the relocation (collectively the “Relocation Benefit”). In addition, Mr. Bloomer will receive a one-time sign-on bonus of $350,000 (the “Sign-On Bonus”). If Mr. Bloomer voluntarily terminates his employment with the Company within 18 months of the date of the Employment Agreement, he must repay to the Relocation Benefit and the Sign-On Bonus to the Company within 30 days of the effective date of his termination.
Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Bloomer will be granted equity awards with a value of $5,750,000, consisting of (A) $3,350,000 of restricted stock units, which will vest over four years beginning on the first anniversary of the
grant date, (B) $750,000 of restricted stock units, which will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date, and (C) $1,650,000 of performance stock units, which will become earned and vested pursuant to the terms established by the Company’s Human Capital Committee for the 2024 executive officer equity grants (the “PSUs”). The PSUs’ performance period is January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026 and the maximum payout under the PSUs is 225% of the target number of shares covered thereby. The vesting of all such equity awards is subject to Mr. Bloomer's continued employment with the Company.
If Mr. Bloomer is terminated without
cause or resigns for good reason, he will be entitled under the Employment Agreement to receive certain severance benefits including (1) salary continuation for twelve (12) months, (2) a lump-sum cash payment equal to twelve (12) months of premium payments for COBRA coverage for health, dental, and vision coverage in which Mr. Bloomer is enrolled in at the time of his separation, (3) $10,000 towards outplacement consulting, and (4) immediate acceleration by a period of twelve (12) months of any then unvested equity awards. Any PSUs that have been granted to Mr. Bloomer that have not become earned and payable prior to his separation will be cancelled and shall terminate for no consideration.
As previously announced in January 2024, Mr. Jeffrey T. Elliott will continue to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer until
Mr. Bloomer’s appointment to that office effective May 15, 2024. At that time, Mr. Elliott is expected to transition to the role of special advisor to the Chief Executive Officer.
