Item 5.02   Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.
On June 3, 2021, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Glaukos Corporation (the "Company") approved an updated form indemnification agreement (the "Updated Form Indemnification Agreement") that will be entered into with each of (i) the Company's executive officers (Messrs. Thomas W. Burns, President and Chief Executive Officer, Chris M. Calcaterra, Chief Operating Officer, and Joseph E. Gilliam, Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President, Corporate Development) and (ii) each of the Company's non-employee directors (Mr. William J. Link, Ph.D., Mr. Mark J. Foley, Mr. Marc A. Stapley, Dr. Leana S. Wen, Dr. Gilbert H. Kliman, Ms. Aimee Weisner, Ms. Denice Torres and Mr. David F. Hoffmeister) (collectively, the "Indemnitees"). We also anticipate entering into the Updated Form Indemnification Agreement with any new executive officers and directors. Pursuant to the Updated Form Indemnification Agreement, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the Company will continue to indemnify and advance certain expenses and costs incurred by each Indemnitee in connection with any threatened, pending or completed proceeding arising by reason of his or her service as a director or officer, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
The Updated Form Indemnification Agreement supersedes the previously existing form indemnification agreement entered into between the Company and the Indemnitees, which was filed as Exhibit 10.8 to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 12, 2015. The Board adopted the Updated Form Indemnification Agreement to, among other things, incorporate certain updates that reflect market indemnification practices and clarify the scope of the Indemnitees' rights under the agreement and certain procedural and other requirements related to requests for indemnification.
Item 5.07.   Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

At the Annual Meeting, the Company's stockholders voted on three proposals, each of which is described in more detail in the Company's definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 22, 2021.
