Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On April 29, 2021, the board of directors (the “Board”) of MedTech Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) appointed Manuel “Manny” Aguero and David L. Treadwell as directors of the Company.

 

Mr. Aguero has over 38 years of experience in the healthcare industry, including seven years at Johnson & Johnson’s Surgikos division (1984 to 1990) where he held positions of increasing responsibility including sales, marketing, and management, rising from a territorial sales position to becoming Director of Sales Training. Mr. Aguero co-founded and has been President of Q*Med Corporation, a medical device distribution company since its inception in 1990. He also has served on the board of its affiliate, Phoenix Healthcare Solutions, a leading medical manufacturing company, since 2012. Mr. Aguero was an early stage investor and has served on the board of directors of Veterans Healthcare Supply Solutions since 2011. He also served on the board of Orthosensor Inc., a leader in orthopedic sensor technologies, from 2010 until its sale to Stryker in 2020. Mr. Aguero graduated with Honors from The University of Florida with a BSBA in Business Finance. Our Board has determined that Mr. Aguero’s experience as a director of medical technology companies qualifies him to serve as a member of our Board.

 

Mr. Treadwell has been a director of Visteon, an automotive supplier focused on cockpit electronics, since August 2012. He has also served on the boards of Flagstar Bank, Inc. (NYSE: FBC), a $27 billion regional bank, since 2009 and U.S. Well Services, Inc. (Nasdaq: USWS) (formerly known as Matlin& Partners Acquisition Corporation prior to its merger with U.S. Well Services LLC), a high-pressure hydraulic fracturing supplier, since 2018. Mr. Treadwell also serves as Chairman of Tweddle Group, a provider of automotive owner manuals/information, since September 2018; and Chairman of AGY, LLC, a producer of high tech glass fiber for a variety of global applications, since July 2013. Mr. Treadwell has served on the boards of several other public and private companies. Mr. Treadwell served as President and Chief Executive Officer of EP Management Corporation, formerly known as EaglePicher Corporation, a diversified industrial group, from August 2006 to September 2011. Mr. Treadwell was EaglePicher’s Chief Operating Officer from June 2005 to July 2006. EaglePicher Corporation included EP Medical Batteries, which developed and supplied implantable medical batteries. Prior to that, he served as Oxford Automotive’s Chief Executive Officer from 2004 to 2005. Mr. Treadwell graduated from University of Michigan in 1976 with high honors, BBA in Business. Our Board has determined that Mr. Treadwell’s public company board experience qualifies him to serve as a member of our Board.

 

There are no transactions between the Company and Mr. Aguero or Mr. Treadwell that are subject to disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

 

In connection with the appointments, on April 29, 2021, the Company entered into certain letter agreements and indemnification agreements with Mr. Aguero and Mr. Treadwell, which are substantially similar to the letter agreement and indemnification agreements, respectively, entered into by the other directors in connection with the Company’s initial public offering.
