Overview


We are a medical device company primarily focused on the design, development and
commercialization of continuous glucose monitoring, or CGM, systems for use by
people with diabetes and by healthcare providers. We received approval from the
Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, and commercialized our first product in
2006. We launched our latest generation system, the DexCom G6® integrated
Continuous Glucose Monitoring System, or G6, in 2018. Unless the context
requires otherwise, the terms "we," "us," "our," the "company," or "DexCom"
refer to DexCom, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
We sell our reusable transmitter and receiver, collectively referred to as
"Reusable Hardware" and disposable sensors through a direct sales force in the
United States, Canada and some countries in Europe, and through distribution
arrangements in the United States, and certain countries in Africa, Asia,
Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East, as well as Australia, Canada, and
New Zealand. Most of our distributors stock our products and fulfill orders for
our products from their inventory.
We plan to develop future generations of technologies that are focused on
improved performance and convenience and that will enable intelligent insulin
administration. We also are aggressively exploring how to extend our offerings
to other opportunities, including for people with Type 2 diabetes that are
non-insulin using, people with pre-diabetes, people who are obese, people who
are pregnant, and people with diabetes in the hospital setting. We will continue
to develop a networked platform with open architecture, connectivity and
transmitters capable of communicating with other devices and software systems.
We also intend to expand our efforts to accumulate CGM patient data and metrics
and apply predictive modeling and machine learning to generate interactive CGM
insights that can inform patient behavior.
For discussion related to the results of operations and changes in financial
condition for fiscal 2018 compared to fiscal 2017 refer to Part II, Item 7.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations in our fiscal 2018 Form 10-K, which was filed with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission on February 21, 2019.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations
are based on our consolidated financial statements, which we have prepared in
accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial
statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements as
well as the reported revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. On an
ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not
readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these
estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 to
the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report,
we believe that the following accounting policies and estimates are most
critical to a full understanding and evaluation of our reported financial
results. Members of our senior management have discussed the development and
selection of these critical accounting policies and their disclosure in this
Annual Report with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

                                       63
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Revenue Recognition
We generate our revenue from the sale of our Reusable Hardware and disposable
sensors. Disposable sensors are sold separately. We also provide free-of-charge
software and mobile applications for use with our Reusable Hardware and
disposable sensors. In determining how revenue should be recognized, a five-step
process is used, which requires judgment and estimates within the revenue
recognition process. The primary judgments include identifying the performance
obligations in the contract and determining whether the performance obligations
are distinct. We exercise significant judgment when we determine the transaction
price, including variable consideration adjustments. If the actual amounts of
consideration that we receive differ from our estimates, we would adjust our
estimates and that would affect reported revenue in the period that such
variances become known. If any of these judgments were to change it could cause
a material increase or decrease in the amount of revenue we report in a
particular period.
We generally recognize revenue when control is transferred to our customers in
an amount that reflects the net consideration to which we expect to be entitled.
Transaction price is typically based on the contracted rates less an estimate of
claim denials and historical reimbursement experience by payor, which include
current and future expectations regarding reimbursement rates and payor mix. We
recognize revenue only to the extent that it is probable that a significant
reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in a
future period. We estimate reductions for rebates based on contractual
arrangements, estimates of products sold subject to rebate, known events or
trends and channel inventory data. For more information, see "Revenue
Recognition" in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item
8 of this Annual Report.
Disaggregation of Revenue.
We disaggregate revenue by geographic region and by major sales channel. We have
determined that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the ASC
Topic 606 disclosure objectives of depicting how the nature, amount, timing and
uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
Reconciliations of revenue disaggregated by geographic location and by major
sales channel to total revenue are provided in Note 10 to the consolidated
financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report.
Share-Based Compensation
Share-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date based on the
estimated fair value of the award and is recognized straight-line over the
requisite service period of the individual grants, which typically equals the
vesting period. We value time-based Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") at the date
of grant using the intrinsic value method. Certain RSUs granted to senior
management vest based on the achievement of pre-established performance or
market goals.
We estimate the fair value of performance-based RSUs at the date of grant using
the intrinsic value method and the probability that the specified performance
criteria will be met. We update our assessment of the probability that the
specified performance criteria will be achieved each quarter and adjust our
estimate of the fair value of the performance-based RSUs if necessary. The Monte
Carlo methodology that we use to estimate the fair value of market-based RSUs at
the date of grant incorporates into the valuation the possibility that the
market condition may not be satisfied. Provided that the requisite service is
rendered, the total fair value of the market-based RSUs at the date of grant
must be recognized as compensation expense even if the market condition is not
achieved. However, the number of shares that ultimately vest can vary
significantly with the performance of the specified market criteria.
If any of the assumptions used change significantly, share-based compensation
expense may differ materially from what we have recorded in the current period.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The authoritative guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that is based on
the extent and level of judgment used to estimate the fair value of assets and
liabilities. In general, the authoritative guidance requires us to maximize the
use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when
measuring fair value. An asset or liability's categorization within the fair
value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to
the measurement of its fair value. The three levels of input defined by the
authoritative guidance are as follows:
Level 1-Uses unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2-Uses inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are
observable, either directly or indirectly, through correlation with market data.
These include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities;
quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are
not active; and inputs to valuation models or other pricing methodologies that
do not require significant judgment because the inputs used in the model, such
as interest rates and volatility, can be corroborated by readily observable
market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

                                       64
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Level 3-Uses unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market
activity and that are significant to the determination of fair value. Level 3
assets and liabilities include those whose fair values are determined using
pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar valuation
techniques and significant judgment or estimation.
We estimate the fair value of most of our cash equivalents using Level 1 inputs.
We estimate the fair value of our marketable equity securities using Level 1
inputs and we estimate the fair value of our marketable debt securities using
Level 2 inputs. We carry our other financial instruments, such as cash, accounts
receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and
accrued liabilities, at cost, which approximates the related fair values due to
the short-term maturities of these instruments. See Note 1 and Note 3 to the
consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report for
more information about fair value measurements.
Accounts Receivable, Net and Related Valuation Accounts
We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting
from the inability of our customers to make required payments. We evaluate the
collectability of our accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. We
regularly analyze customer accounts, review the length of time receivables are
outstanding, review historical loss rates and assess current economic trends
that may impact the level of credit losses in the future. Our allowance for
doubtful accounts has generally been adequate to cover our actual credit losses.
However, since we cannot reliably predict future changes in the financial
stability of our customers, we may need to increase our reserves if the
financial conditions of our customers deteriorate.
Excess and Obsolete Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. We record
adjustments to inventory for potentially excess, obsolete, or scrapped goods in
order to state inventory at net realizable value. Factors influencing these
adjustments include inventories on hand and on order compared to estimated
future usage and sales for existing and new products, as well as judgments
regarding quality control testing data and assumptions about the likelihood of
scrap and obsolescence. Historically, our inventory reserves have been adequate
to cover our actual losses. However, if actual product life cycles, product
quality or market conditions differ from our assumptions, additional inventory
adjustments that would increase cost of goods sold could be required.
Income Taxes
We estimate our income taxes based on the various jurisdictions where we conduct
business. Significant judgment is required in determining our worldwide income
tax provision. The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with
uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations and the
potential for future adjustment of our uncertain tax positions by the Internal
Revenue Service or other taxing jurisdictions. While we believe we have
appropriate support for the positions taken on our tax returns, we regularly
assess the potential outcomes of examinations by tax authorities in determining
the adequacy of our provision for income taxes. We continually assess the
likelihood and amount of potential adjustments and adjust the income tax
provision, income taxes payable, and deferred taxes in the period in which the
facts that give rise to a revision become known.
We use the asset and liability approach to recognize deferred tax assets and
liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined using the enacted tax rates
in effect for the years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized.
Significant judgment is required to evaluate the need for a valuation allowance
against deferred tax assets. We review all available positive and negative
evidence, including projections of pre-tax book income, earnings history, and
reliability of forecasting. A valuation allowance is established when it is more
likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. As of December 31, 2019, we have maintained a full valuation allowance
on our deferred tax assets since inception based on our historical losses and
the uncertainty of generating future taxable income to utilize our loss and
credit carryforwards. A future release of our valuation allowance will result in
a material tax benefit recognized in the quarter of the release.
We recognize and measure benefits for uncertain tax positions using a two-step
approach. The first step is to evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be
taken in a tax return by determining if the weight of available evidence
indicates that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be
sustained upon audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation
processes. For tax positions that are more likely than not of being sustained
upon audit, the second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount
that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. Significant
judgment is required to evaluate uncertain tax positions and is based upon a
number of factors, including changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax
law, correspondence with tax authorities during the course of audits and
effective settlement of audit issues. Changes in the recognition or measurement
of uncertain tax positions could result in material increases or decreases in
our income tax expense in the period in which we make the change, which could
have a material impact on our effective tax rate and operating results.

                                       65
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Loss Contingencies
We are subject to certain legal proceedings, as well as demands, claims and
threatened litigation that arise in the normal course of our business. We review
the status of each significant matter quarterly and assess our potential
financial exposure. If the potential loss from a claim or legal proceeding is
considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, we record a
liability and an expense for the estimated loss and disclose it in our
consolidated financial statements if it is significant. If we determine that a
loss is possible and the range of the loss can be reasonably determined, we do
not record a liability or an expense but we disclose the range of the possible
loss. Significant judgment is required in the determination of whether a
potential loss is probable, reasonably possible, or remote as well as in the
determination of whether a potential exposure is reasonably estimable. We base
our judgments on the best information available at the time. As additional
information becomes available, we reassess the potential liability related to
our pending claims and litigation and may revise our estimates. Any revision of
our estimates of potential liability could have a material impact on our
financial position and operating results.

We expect that revenues we generate from the sales of our products will
fluctuate from quarter to quarter. We typically experience seasonality, with
lower sales in the first quarter of each year compared to the immediately
preceding fourth quarter. This seasonal sales pattern relates to U.S. annual
insurance deductible resets and unfunded flexible spending accounts.
Cost of sales includes direct labor and materials costs related to each product
sold or produced, including assembly, test labor and scrap, as well as factory
overhead supporting our manufacturing operations. Factory overhead includes
facilities, material procurement and control, manufacturing engineering, quality
assurance, supervision and management. These costs are primarily salary, fringe
benefits, share-based compensation, facility expense, supplies and purchased
services. All of our manufacturing costs are included in cost of sales.
Fiscal 2019 Compared to Fiscal 2018
Total revenue increased $444.4 million or 43% for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2019 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2018. The
2019 revenue increase was primarily driven by increased sales volume of our
disposable sensors due to the continued growth of our worldwide customer base,
partially offset by pricing pressure due to the evolution of our channel
strategy and product mix. Disposable sensor and other revenue comprised
approximately 78% of total revenue and Reusable Hardware revenue comprised
approximately 22% of total revenue for the twelve months ended December 31,
2019. Disposable sensor and other revenue comprised approximately 75% of total
revenue and Reusable Hardware revenue comprised approximately 25% of total
revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018.
Cost of sales increased $176.8 million or 48% for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2019 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2018
primarily due to increased sales volume. The gross profit of $931.5 million or
63% of total revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 increased
$267.6 million compared to $663.9 million or 64% of total revenue for the same
period in 2018. The 2019 increase in gross profit dollars was primarily driven
by increased revenues, partially offset by higher warranty, freight, and excess
and obsolete inventory charges compared to 2018. The decrease in gross margin
percentage is primarily a function of the evolution of our channel strategy and
product mix as we launch new products and expand internationally. Our gross
martin percentage for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 was also
impacted by investments to scale infrastructure as we drove significant
production capacity expansion in 2019.

Our research and development expenses primarily consist of engineering and
research expenses related to our continuous glucose monitoring technology,
clinical trials, regulatory expenses, quality assurance programs, materials and
products for clinical trials. Research and development expenses are primarily
related to employee compensation, including salary, fringe

                                       67
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

benefits, share-based compensation, and temporary employee expenses. We also
incur significant expenses to operate our clinical trials including clinical
site reimbursement, clinical trial product and associated travel expenses. Our
research and development expenses also include fees for design services,
contractors and development materials.
Our selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of salary,
fringe benefits and share-based compensation for our executive, financial,
sales, marketing, information technology and administrative functions. Other
significant expenses include commissions, marketing and advertising, IT software
license costs, insurance, professional fees for our outside legal counsel and
independent auditors, litigation expenses, patent application expenses and
consulting expenses.
Fiscal 2019 Compared to Fiscal 2018
Research and Development Expense. Research and development expense increased
$73.8 million or 37% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 compared to
the same period of 2018. The increase was primarily due to $39.7 million in
additional salaries, bonus, and payroll-related costs, $11.1 million in
additional supplies costs, and $7.3 million in additional facilities costs. We
continue to believe that focused investments in research and development are
critical to our future growth and competitive position in the marketplace, and
to the development of new and updated products and services that are central to
our core business strategy.
Collaborative Research and Development Fee. Collaborative research and
development fee decreased $217.7 million for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. During 2018, we recorded
a one time $217.7 million collaborative research and development charge related
to our collaboration and license agreement with Verily. See Note 2 to the
consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report for
more information about this collaboration agreement.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative
expense increased $82.9 million or 19% for the twelve months ended December 31,
2019 compared to the same period of 2018. The increase was primarily due to
higher sales-related costs commensurate with revenue growth and the continued
commercialization of our products in the United States and international
markets. Significant elements of the increase in selling, general, and
administrative expenses included $20.5 million in additional third party service
provider fees, $13.1 million in additional salaries, bonus and payroll-related
costs, $11.0 million in additional consulting fees, $9.3 million in additional
marketing costs, $8.6 million in additional depreciation, and $7.5 million in
restructuring charges.
Non-Operating Income and Expenses


Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $37.6 million to $60.3 million for the twelve months
ended December 31, 2019 compared to $22.7 million for the same period of 2018.
The increase was primarily due to an additional interest expense for our 2023
Notes, which were issued in November 2018.
Income/Loss from Equity Investments
Loss from equity investments of $4.2 million for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2019 and income from equity investments of $80.1 million for the
twelve months ended months ended December 31, 2018 consist solely of realized
and unrealized gains and losses on our equity investment in Tandem Diabetes
Care, Inc. We sold all of our remaining equity investment in Tandem during the
first quarter of 2019.
Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net
Interest income was $28.4 million and $10.5 million for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and is related to our marketable debt
securities portfolio. The increase in interest income was primarily related to
an increase in the average invested balances during 2019 compared to 2018.
Other income (expense) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018
consists primarily of foreign currency transaction gains and losses due to the
effects of foreign currency fluctuations.
Income Tax Expense
We recorded pre-tax income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, and
pre-tax loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018. The income tax
expense we recorded for 2019 is primarily attributable to state and foreign
income tax expense. The nominal income tax expense we recorded for 2018 is
primarily due to withholding and other income tax expenses in profitable
jurisdictions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview, Capital Resources, and Capital Requirements




Our principal sources of liquidity are our existing cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities, cash generated from operations, proceeds from our
convertible notes issuances, and access to our revolving line of credit. Our
primary uses of cash have been for research and development programs, selling
and marketing activities, capital expenditures, acquisitions of businesses, and
debt service costs.
We expect that cash provided by our operations may fluctuate in future periods
as a result of a number of factors, including fluctuations in our operating
results, working capital requirements and capital deployment decisions. We have
historically invested our cash primarily in U.S. dollar-denominated, investment
grade, highly liquid obligations of U.S. government-sponsored enterprises,
commercial paper, corporate debt, and money market funds. Certain of these
investments are subject to general credit, liquidity and other market risks. The
general condition of the financial markets and the economy may increase those
risks and may affect the value and liquidity of investments and restrict our
ability to access the capital markets.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including but not
limited to:
•      the revenue generated by sales of our approved products and other future

products;

• the expenses we incur in manufacturing, developing, selling and marketing

our products;

• the quality levels of our products and services;

• the third-party reimbursement of our products for our customers;




•      our ability to efficiently scale our operations to meet demand for our
       current and any future products;

• the costs, timing and risks of delays of additional regulatory approvals;

• the costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent

claims and other intellectual property rights;

• the rate of progress and cost of our clinical trials and other development

activities;

• the success of our research and development efforts;

• the emergence of competing or complementary technological developments;




•      the terms and timing of any collaborative, licensing and other
       arrangements that we may establish;

• the acquisition of businesses, products and technologies and our ability

to integrate and manage any acquired businesses, products and

technologies; and

• the evolution of the international expansion of our business.




We expect that existing cash and cash flows from our future operations will
generally be sufficient to fund our ongoing core business. As current borrowing
sources become due, we may be required to access the capital markets for
additional funding. As we assess inorganic growth strategies, we may need to
supplement our internally generated cash flow with outside sources. In the event
that we are required to access the debt market, we believe that we will be able
to secure reasonable borrowing rates. As part of our liquidity strategy, we will
continue to monitor our current level of earnings and cash flow generation as
well as our ability to access the market in light of those earning levels.
A substantial portion of our operations are located in the United States, and
the majority of our sales since inception have been made in U.S. dollars.
Accordingly, our assessment is that we have no material net exposure to foreign
currency exchange rate fluctuations at this time. However, as our business in
markets outside of the United States continues to increase, we will be exposed
to foreign currency exchange risk related to our foreign operations.
Fluctuations in the rate of exchange between the U.S. dollar and foreign
currencies, primarily the British Pound, the Euro, and the Canadian Dollar,
could adversely affect our financial results, including our revenues, revenue
growth rates, gross margins, income and losses as well as assets and
liabilities. We currently engage in limited hedging transactions to reduce
foreign currency risks on certain intercompany balances. We will continue to
monitor and manage our financial exposures due to exchange rate fluctuations as
an integral part of our overall risk management program. Our cash, cash
equivalents and short-term marketable securities totaled $1,533.3 million as of
December 31, 2019. None of those funds were restricted and approximately 98% of
those funds were located in the United States. We intend to reinvest a
substantial portion of our foreign earnings in those businesses, and we
currently do not anticipate that we will need funds generated by foreign
operations to fund our domestic ones.
Our cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities as of
December 31, 2019 increased by $147.7 million from December 31, 2018 due to the
factors described in "Cash Flows" below. We believe that our cash, cash
equivalents, and marketable securities balances, projected cash contributions
from our commercial operations, and our $200.0 million revolving line of credit,
of which $195.6 million remains available, will be sufficient to meet our
anticipated seasonal working capital

                                       69
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

needs, capital expenditure requirements, contractual obligations, commitments,
debt service requirements, and other liquidity requirements associated with our
operations for at least the next 12 months.
Revolving Credit Agreement
In December 2018, we entered into an amended and restated five-year $200.0
million revolving Credit Agreement, including a sub-facility of up to $10.0
million for letters of credit. Subject to customary conditions and the approval
of any lender whose commitment would be increased, we have the option to
increase the maximum principal amount available under the Credit Agreement by up
to an additional $300.0 million, resulting in a maximum available principal
amount of $500.0 million. However, at this time none of the lenders have
committed to provide any such increase in their commitments. Revolving loans
under the Credit Agreement will be available for general corporate purposes,
including working capital and capital expenditures. As of December 31, 2019, we
had no outstanding borrowings, $4.4 million in outstanding letters of credit,
and a total available balance of $195.6 million under the Credit Agreement. We
monitor counterparty risk associated with the institutional lenders that are
providing the credit facility. We currently believe that the credit facility
will be available to us should we choose to borrow under it.
Senior Convertible Notes
The following table summarizes our outstanding convertible note obligations:

Total                  $           1,250.0


We used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes due 2022
(the 2022 Notes) to repay $75.0 million of borrowings under our existing credit
facility in 2017. We used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the
Notes due 2023 (the 2023 Notes) to repurchase 0.8 million shares of our common
stock for $100.0 million in 2018. The remainder of the net proceeds from the
Notes offerings are available for general corporate purposes and capital
expenditures, including working capital needs. We may also use the net proceeds
to expand our current business through in-licensing or acquisitions of, or
investments in, other businesses, products or technologies; however, we do not
have any significant commitments with respect to any such acquisitions or
investments at this time.
2023 Note Hedge
In connection with the offering of the 2023 Notes, in November 2018 we entered
into convertible note hedge transactions (the 2023 Note Hedge) with two of the
initial purchasers of the 2023 Notes (the 2023 Counterparties) entitling us to
purchase up to 5.2 million shares of our common stock at an initial price
of $164.29 per share, each of which is subject to adjustment. The cost of the
2023 Note Hedge was $218.9 million and it will expire on December 1, 2023. The
2023 Note Hedge is expected to reduce the potential equity dilution upon any
conversion of the 2023 Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to
make in excess of the principal amount of converted 2023 Notes if the daily
volume-weighted average price per share of our common stock exceeds the strike
price of the 2023 Note Hedge. The strike price of the 2023 Note Hedge initially
corresponds to the conversion price of the 2023 Notes and is subject to certain
adjustments under the terms of the 2023 Note Hedge.
2023 Warrants
In November 2018, we also sold warrants (the 2023 Warrants) to the 2023
Counterparties to acquire up to 5.2 million shares of our common stock for cash
proceeds of $183.8 million. The 2023 Warrants require net share settlement and a
pro-rated number of warrants will expire on each of the 60 scheduled trading
days starting on March 1, 2024.
See Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this
Annual Report for more information about the terms of the Credit Agreement, 2022
Notes and the 2023 Notes, the 2023 Note Hedge, and the 2023 Warrants.
