On February 2, 2021, Gwendolyn A. Watanabe notified the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Misonix, Inc. (the “Company”) that she is resigning from her position as a director of the Company, effective February 2, 2021. Ms. Watanabe is a member of the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) and the Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”) of the Board. Ms. Watanabe’s resignation follows her acceptance of a senior position at Smith & Nephew. The resignation was not the result of any disagreements with the Company relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. In order to fill the committee vacancies created by Ms. Watanabe’s resignation, the Board appointed Paul LaViolette to the Audit Committee and Thomas M. Patton to the Nominating Committee, in each case effective upon Ms. Watanabe’s resignation. Mr. LaViolette will serve as chair of the Nominating Committee. Also effective upon Ms. Watanabe’s resignation as a director, the size of the Board will be reduced from five to four directors.
