Item 8.01. Other Events.

In February 2018, each of Jeffrey Points, Chief Financial Officer of Cardiovascular Systems, Inc. (the “Company”), Laura Gillund, Chief Talent Officer of the Company, Alexander Rosenstein, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of the Company, and Sandra Sedo, Chief Compliance Officer of the Company, adopted a pre-arranged trading plan to sell shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Points Trading Plan,” the “Gillund Trading Plan,” the “Rosenstein Trading Plan” and the “Sedo Trading Plan,” respectively, and, collectively, the “Plans”). The Plans were designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Company’s policies regarding stock transactions.

Each of the Plans allows for the sale of an indeterminate number of shares of common stock to cover the required withholding taxes and transaction costs associated with the vesting of shares of restricted stock.

Sales pursuant to each Plan are expected to begin as early as, and will terminate no later than, the dates set forth below, unless terminated sooner in accordance with the terms of such Plan:

Rosenstein Trading Plan

December 31, 2020
Sedo Trading Plan

All shares will be sold under the Plans in the open market at prevailing market prices. The individual officers will have no control over the actual timing of the stock sales under the Plans. All stock sales under the Plans will be disclosed publicly in accordance with applicable securities laws, rules and regulations through appropriate filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not undertake to report other Rule 10b5-1 plans that may be adopted by any of its officers or directors in the future, to report any modifications or termination of any publicly announced plan, or to report any plan adopted by an employee who is not an executive officer, except in each case to the extent required by law.
