On July 16, 2013, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Hansen Medical, Inc. increased the authorized size of the Board to nine members, creating one vacancy on the Board.

On July 16, 2013, the Board appointed Ms. Marjorie Bowen to serve as a member of the Board, effective immediately, to fill the newly created vacancy on the Board. Ms. Bowen was appointed as a Class I director, with an initial term expiring at the 2016 annual meeting of stockholders. This appointment was based on the recommendation of the Board’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Board has determined that Ms. Bowen is independent within the meaning of the independent director standards of the Securities and Exchange Commission and Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc.

In connection with his appointment to the Board, Ms. Bowen will be entitled to receive cash and equity compensation consistent with that of the Company’s other non-employee directors. Such compensation is described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 8, 2013.
