DENTSPLY SIRONA's Compensation & Human Capital Committee approved a one-time retention equity award for several executives, including Senior Vice President and Chief Supply Chain Officer Tony Johnson. The award, made in stock options with a grant date fair value of $2,000,000, is intended to recognize his work during the recent CEO and CFO transitions and to encourage him to stay with the company for three years.

- Grant expected on the second trading day after the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 is filed
- Half the options have an exercise price equal to fair market value on the grant date; the other half are priced at 110% of that value
