This DEFA14A outlines key proposals for Alphatec Holdings' annual meeting on June 10, 2026. The most notable changes include a proposed reduction in the Board of Directors from nine to seven members, which could signal a shift in corporate governance strategy. Additionally, the company is seeking approval for a new 2026 Equity Incentive Plan and a 2026 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
