Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;


          Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain
          Officers.



(e) Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers





As part of the ongoing evaluation of its executive compensation programs, the
Executive Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors
of Boston Scientific Corporation (the "Company"), reviewed the existing form of
Change in Control Agreement for executive officers below the chief executive
officer level and approved certain modifications to better align executive
compensation with increasing stockholder value following a change in control. On
May 3, 2022, the Executive Compensation and Human Resources Committee approved
changes to the form of Change in Control Agreement for executive officers below
the chief executive officer level ("Revised Change in Control Agreements"). The
Revised Change in Control Agreements provide for a cash severance payment amount
following a change in control (as defined under the Revised Change in Control
Agreements) of two times base salary and bonus, as calculated under the
agreement, instead of three times base salary and bonus, as provided for under
the agreements prior to amendment.



The Company intends to ask each of its eligible executive officers to execute and agree to the terms of the Revised Change in Control Agreements upon the expiration of their existing Change in Control Agreements.





A copy of the form of Revised Change in Control Agreement is filed as Exhibit
10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference. This summary does not purport to be
complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the
full text of the form of Revised Change in Control Agreement.
