Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 20, 2022, DENTSPLY SIRONA Inc. (the “Company”) obtained the consent of the requisite lenders under its revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, to further extend the time period for delivery of the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022 (the “Q2 financials”) and the related certificates, from September 30, 2022 until November 7, 2022. As previously disclosed on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 31, 2022, the holders of the Company’s private placement notes have previously agreed to extend the time period for delivery of such financial statements until the earlier of (i) November 7, 2022, or (ii) the date the Q2 financials are required to be delivered under the Company’s revolving credit facility or the date on which the Q2 financials are actually delivered under the revolving credit facility if such delivery occurs earlier than otherwise required.
The Audit and Finance Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors continues to work diligently with independent counsel and advisors to complete its previously announced investigation as soon as possible and the Company is working to finalize its financial statements as soon as practicable.
If the Company is unable to deliver the Q2 financials by the date required under its existing debt instruments (after giving effect to any applicable consents and grace periods), such failure would constitute an event of default under such debt instruments, which could also constitute a cross-default with respect to certain of the Company’s other outstanding debt agreements and which may have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.
On September 22, 2022, the Company appointed Glenn G. Coleman as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company effective as of September 26, 2022 (the “Effective Date”). As of the Effective Date, Mr. Coleman will succeed Barbara Bodem who has served as Interim Chief Financial Officer since May 6, 2022; however, the Company and Ms. Bodem entered into an amendment to her employment agreement, dated as of September 22, 2022, pursuant to which Ms. Bodem will continue her employment with the Company as an advisor to Mr. Coleman until October 24, 2022. Ms. Bodem will continue to receive the same monetary compensation in her role as advisor to Mr. Coleman as she did as Interim Chief Financial Officer.
Mr. Coleman, age 55, currently serves as the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation (“Integra”), a leading global medical technology company, a position he has held since June 2019. In this role, Mr. Coleman oversaw operations and a majority of Integra’s talent force, including clinical, R&D, manufacturing and quality while also leading the international team. From May 2014 until June 2019, Mr. Coleman acted as Integra’s Corporate Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and was responsible for the finance department, including accounting and financial reporting, budgeting, internal audit, tax, treasury, investor relations, and information technology. Prior to joining Integra, Mr. Coleman spent 25 years in financial management positions with leading global businesses, including serving as vice president for finance and corporate controller at Curtiss-Wright Corporation. Mr. Coleman also worked at Alcatel-Lucent in various finance executive leadership positions. Mr. Coleman began his career at PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. Mr. Coleman received his B.S. degree from Montclair State University and has also been a CPA in New Jersey for more than 25 years.
The Company has entered into an offer letter with Mr. Coleman pursuant to which he will serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (the “Offer Letter”). Pursuant to the Offer Letter, Mr. Coleman will be paid an annual base salary of $625,000, be eligible for a target annual bonus of 80% of base salary (on a pro-rated basis for 2022), receive a one-time sign-on bonus of $300,000, be eligible to receive a starting equity grant with a grant date fair value of $3 million in the following components: (a) 25% in the form of stock options vesting one-third per year over a three-year period, (b) 25% in the form of restricted stock units vesting one-third per year over a three-year period, and (c) 50% in the form of performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs”) with vesting based on achievement of the performance metrics associated with the 2022 PRSUs granted to other members of executive management, and, beginning in the Company’s fiscal year 2023, be eligible for annual long-term incentive compensation with a target expected grant date fair value of $2.5 million, with the actual grant date fair value to be determined at the discretion of the Board’s Human Resources Committee.
If Mr. Coleman (A) voluntarily resigns for “Good Reason” (as defined in the Key Employee Severance Benefit Plan (as may be amended, the “Severance Plan”)) or (B) is involuntarily terminated by the Company without “Cause” (as defined in the Severance Plan), outside of a change in control (each, a “Non-COC Qualified Termination”) and subject to his satisfaction of the conditions to severance described below, Mr. Coleman would be entitled to receive severance pay equal to (A) 1.0 times the sum of: (i) his annual base salary; (ii) his annual target bonus for the fiscal year including the date of termination; and (iii) 12 months of applicable monthly COBRA charges for continuation of medical, dental and vision insurances on a post-employment basis which are based on his active insurance coverage elections at the date of termination plus (B) a prorated annual bonus, if any, payable in the normal course with other executives based upon the actual achievement of performance targets for the fiscal year including the date of termination, plus (C) for any equity-compensation awards held pursuant to the Dentsply Sirona Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Equity Plan"), if such awards provide for accelerated vesting in the event of termination without Cause, then such awards are also deemed to accelerate vesting in the event of a resignation with Good Reason.
If Mr. Coleman (A) voluntarily resigns for “Good Reason” (as defined in the Severance Plan) or (B) is involuntarily terminated by the Company without “Cause” (as defined in the Severance Plan), each during a change in control (as defined in the Severance Plan) (a “COC Qualified Termination” and, together with a Non-COC Qualified Termination, a “Qualified Termination”), and subject to his satisfaction of the conditions to severance described below, Mr. Coleman would be eligible to receive enhanced severance pay equal to (A) 2.0 times the sum of: (i) his annual base salary; (ii) his annual target bonus for the fiscal year including the date of termination; and (iii) 12 months of applicable monthly COBRA charges for continuation of medical, dental and vision insurances on a post-employment basis which are based on his active insurance coverage elections at the date of termination, plus (B) for any equity-compensation awards held pursuant to the Equity Plan, if such awards provide for accelerated vesting in the event of a “Change in Control” (as defined in the Equity Plan), then "Good Reason" for purposes of accelerated vesting under the Equity Plan shall instead be determined under the definition of Good Reason under the Severance Plan.
As a condition to Mr. Coleman’s receipt of severance benefits under the Severance Plan with respect to a Qualified Termination, Mr. Coleman must execute and not revoke a General Release and Waiver of all claims against the Company and all its Affiliates (as defined in the Severance Plan).
The Offer Letter also subjects Mr. Coleman to certain confidentiality obligations and two-year noncompetition/nonsolicitation restrictions.
The foregoing summaries of Mr. Coleman’s Offer Letter and the amendment to Ms. Bodem’s employment agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the text of the agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 hereto, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan: You will also be eligible to participate in the Company’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”). The purpose of the SERP is to provide additional retirement benefits for a limited group of management employees. Credits equal to 11.7% of total annual cash compensation (base salary and any annual incentive awards), reduced by Company contributions to the 401(k) plan, are allocated to SERP participants’ accounts.

We also expect you to comply with any post-employment restrictions or other legal obligations that may apply to you related to the recruitment of employees or solicitation of customers of your former employer.
Nothing in this offer letter or any prior or subsequent communications to you shall in any way create an express or implied employment contract with you for a specific term. Rather, your employment with
Dentsply Sirona is and will be at the will of the Company and may be terminated at any time. You may likewise leave your employment with Dentsply Sirona at any time.
Attached is the Dentsply Sirona Inc. Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement which is an integral part of this offer of employment. To accept this offer, you must also agree to the conditions of the Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement by signing and returning that Agreement to the Company before your employment begins.
