Explanation of Responses:
1. The amount of securities beneficially owned in Column 5 is as of this Form 4 filing date, not as of the transaction date.
2. Includes 46 shares acquired pursuant to the Issuer's Employee Stock Purchase Plan on January 31, 2021.
3. RSUs convert into common stock on the vest date on a one-for-one basis. On the transaction date, 25% of the shares were released and a portion of the shares were held back to cover the statutory tax withholding requirement. The net shares were deposited into the holders account.
4. These shares were sold in accordance with a Trading Plan that complies with SEC Rule 10b5-1 and expires on July 26, 2021.
5. The Reporting Person's Form 5 filed with the SEC on 1/24/2019 reported in error a gift of 30 shares on 9/13/2018 and thus the Reporting Person's ownership in subsequent Section 16 reports was understated by 30 shares. This Form 4 corrects the aforementioned error.
6. Each RSU granted represents a contingent right to receive one share of Intuitive Surgical common stock. The grant vests 25% on the first anniversary of the date of grant and annually thereafter, over a four year period.
