ReShape Lifesciences Inc.: ReShape Lifesciences Announces CFO Resignation

SAN CLEMENTE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / August 6, 2019 / ReShape Lifesciences Inc. (OTCQB:RSLS), a developer of minimally invasive medical devices to treat obesity and metabolic diseases, announced today Scott Youngstrom will resign as Chief Financial Officer effective October 1, 2019, per his retention agreement. Mr. Youngstrom, who is leaving for personal reasons, has agreed to assist in helping to find his replacement and in the orderly transition of his CFO responsibilities.

"We greatly appreciate the contributions Scott has made during his tenure at ReShape Lifesciences," stated Bart Bandy, President and Chief Executive Officer of ReShape Lifesciences.

We will miss his leadership and insights as a member of our team and we wish him well in his next pursuits."

Scott Youngstrom, Chief Financial Officer of ReShape Lifesciences stated, "It is with mixed emotions that I announce my departure from ReShape. I have been fortunate to work with the incredible team at ReShape Lifesciences and am confident that under Bart's leadership the company is on a solid path towards building increased demand and access to the company's life changing technologies for the growing battle against obesity."

About ReShape Lifesciences Inc.
