On December 13, 2022, the sole manager of the board of managers (the “Board”) of GE Healthcare Holding LLC (the “Company”) appointed Catherine Lesjak and Michael J. Holston to serve as managers of the Board, increasing the size of the Board from one manager to three managers, effective as of December 14, 2022. Upon her appointment, Ms. Lesjak was named as a member of the Company’s Audit Committee, Talent, Culture, and Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Governance Committee. It is expected that Ms. Lesjak will continue to serve as a member of the Board and the Audit Committee as of and following the effective time of the previously announced distribution of at least 80.1% of the shares of the Company’s common stock by General Electric Company (“GE”) to holders of GE common stock on a pro rata basis (the “Spin-Off”). It is expected that Mr. Holston and Mr. Giglietti will be removed from the Board prior to the consummation of the Spin-Off. The Spin-Off is expected to be effective as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 3, 2023 (the “Distribution Date”). The Company will convert into a corporation and will be renamed GE HealthCare Technologies Inc. prior to the completion of the Spin-Off. Following the conversion, the Board will exist as the board of directors of the Company as a corporation.

On December 13, 2022, the Company appointed each of Peter J. Arduini, Helmut Zodl, and George Newcomb to the roles of President & Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Controller & Chief Accounting Officer, respectively. Such appointments became effective as of December 14, 2022. It is expected that Messrs. Arduini, Zodl, and Newcomb will continue to serve in those roles following the Distribution Date. Also on December 13, 2022, the Board removed Robert M. Giglietti from the role of President and appointed him to the role of Vice President, effective as of December 14, 2022.

Biographical information for Mr. Arduini, Mr. Zodl, and Ms. Lesjak is set forth in the section titled “Management” in the Information Statement, dated December 8, 2022 (the “Information Statement”), filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 8, 2022, and such information and description are incorporated by reference herein.

Mr. Newcomb, 55, has served as the Global Controller of GE’s healthcare business since February 2016 and has been appointed as the Company’s Controller & Chief Accounting Officer in connection with the Spin-Off.

Mr. Newcomb has a bachelor’s degree in accounting from the Pennsylvania State University and an M.B.A. from New York University’s Stern School of Business. He is a licensed CPA in the state of Pennsylvania.
