ITEM 5.02(e) Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On May 27, 2015 the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Myriad Genetics, Inc. (the “Committee”) determined to award an annual cash incentive bonus for FY 2015 to the executive officers set forth below under criteria set forth in Company’s 2013 Executive Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Committee reviewed the performance criteria for the officers under the Plan for the FY 2015 annual incentive bonus awards and determined to award the annual cash incentive bonus amounts for the officers’ FY 2015 annual cash incentive bonus award to be consistent with the level of annual incentive compensation being awarded to employees under the Company’s other annual incentive plans for the fiscal year. The award amounts are below the target bonus amounts for each officer. The award amounts were based on the level of financial performance of the Company and the officers’ individual goals and accomplishments for the fiscal year. No other amount will be awarded to these officers for their annual cash incentive bonus for FY 2015.
