On December 21, 2023, Catherine Friedman informed Seer, Inc. (the “Company”) of her resignation as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and all committees thereof, effective immediately.
In connection with Ms. Friedman’s resignation from the Board, the size of the Board was decreased from eight to seven members.
Also, following Ms. Friedman’s resignation, the Board appointed Rachel Haurwitz, Ph.D. to the Audit Committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”) and appointed Meeta Gulyani as the Chair of the Audit Committee. The Board determined that Dr. Haurwitz qualifies as independent under the director independence standards set forth in the rules and regulations of Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the applicable listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) and also satisfies the additional requirements of financial literacy and audit committee independence for audit committee service under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and listing standards of Nasdaq. The Board determined that Dr. Haurwitz qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of SEC rules and regulations.
