Item 5.02

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On March 14, 2025, Gary Blackford informed the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of ReShape Lifesciences Inc. (the “Company”) of his decision to resign from the Board and all related committees effective March 15, 2025. Mr. Blackford’s decision to resign from the Board is not due to any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.

As a result of Mr. Blackford’s resignation, the Company’s Audit Committee will be comprised of two independent directors and, therefore, will not be in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(2)(A), which requires the Company’s Audit Committee to be comprised of three independent directors. However, the Company will rely on the cure period set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(4)(B) to regain compliance with the audit committee composition requirements.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
