Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A that are not based on historical fact are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. These forward-looking statements regarding future events and our future results are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections and the beliefs and assumptions of our management including, without limitation, our expectations regarding revenues, results of operations, selling, general and administrative expenses, research and development expenses, the sufficiency of our cash for future operations, and the success of our preclinical, clinical and development programs and our dermatology franchise. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believe," "could increase the likelihood," "hope," "target," "project," "goals," "potential," "predict," "might," "expect," "intend," "is planned," "should," "will enable," "would be expected," "look forward," "may provide," "would," "may," "could," "will," "expect," "estimate," "anticipate," "continue," or similar terms, variations of such terms or the negative of those terms. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Our actual results and timing of certain events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 17, 2008 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. It is routine for internal projections and expectations to change as the year or each quarter in the year progresses, and therefore it should be clearly understood that the internal projections and beliefs upon which we base our expectations are made as of the date of this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A and may change prior to the end of each quarter or the year. While we may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Holders
As of March 3, 2008, the approximate number of holders of record of our common stock was 83 and the approximate number of beneficial holders of our common stock was 2,865 as of March 3, 2008.
Dividends
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. Except as set forth below, we intend to retain earnings, if any, to fund future growth and the operation of our business. On May 12, 1999, we consummated a $20.0 million financing through the issuance of our Series D Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, or Series D Stock. As a result of such financing, we had certain common stock dividend obligations and continue to have certain cumulative cash dividend obligations to the holders of the Series D Stock, who now hold Series D-1 Stock as a result of the Restructuring and Exchange Agreement we executed with such holders on December 15, 2005. Such arrangement also limits our ability to declare dividends to our common stockholders. In addition, our ability to declare dividends to our common stockholders is further limited by the terms of our credit facility with SVB, which expires on October 9, 2008.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
Information relating to compensation plans under which our equity securities are authorized for issuance is set forth under "EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION" in Item 12 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, officers and stockholders who beneficially own more than 10% of any class of our equity securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with respect to our equity securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All reporting persons are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission's regulations to furnish us with copies of all reports that such reporting persons file with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 16(a).
Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us and upon written representations of our reporting persons received by us each such reporting person has filed all of his respective reports pursuant to Section 16(a) on a timely basis.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
We have adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that applies to our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. We make available our code of business conduct and ethics free of charge through our website which is located atwww.collagenex.com.

Director Nomination Process
The process followed by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to identify and evaluate director candidates includes requests to the members of the Board and others for recommendations, meetings from time to time to evaluate biographical information and background material relating to potential candidates and interviews of selected candidates by members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board.
In considering whether to recommend any particular candidate for inclusion in the Board's slate of recommended director nominees, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee applies the criteria attached to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter. These criteria include the candidate's integrity, business acumen, knowledge of our business and industry, experience, diligence, conflicts of interest and the ability to act in the interests of all our stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not assign specific weights to particular criteria and no particular criterion is a prerequisite for each prospective nominee. We believe that the backgrounds and qualifications of our directors, considered as a group, should provide a composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow the Board to fulfill its responsibilities.
Stockholders may recommend individuals to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for consideration as potential director candidates by submitting the names of the candidate(s), together with appropriate biographical information and background materials and a
7
statement as to whether the stockholder or group of stockholders making the recommendation has beneficially owned more than 5% of our common stock for at least a year as of the date such recommendation is made, to Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, c/o Secretary, CollaGenex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 41 University Drive, Newtown, Pennsylvania 18940. Assuming that appropriate biographical and background material has been provided on a timely basis, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate stockholder-recommended candidates by following substantially the same process, and applying substantially the same criteria, as it follows for candidates submitted by others.
There have been no material changes to the procedures by which our stockholders may recommend to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee nominees for election to the Board since we filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.
Audit Committee
Our Board of Directors has established an audit committee that operates under a written charter that has been approved by the Board. A current copy of the charter is posted on the Corporate Governance section of our website located atwww.collagenex.com. The Audit Committee currently consists of Dr. Barnett, who serves as its Chairman, Dr. Beardsley, Mr. Daverman and Dr. Lasezkay, each of whom the Board has determined to be independent as defined under the rules of NASDAQ and the independence requirements contemplated by Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. The Board has determined that each of Mr. Daverman, Dr. Barnett and Dr. Beardsley is an "audit committee financial expert" as defined by applicable SEC rules.
Item 11. Executive Compensation.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Overview and Philosophy
Our compensation programs are designed to attract and retain high quality and talented executive officers, and to reward individual contribution, loyalty, teamwork and integrity. Our programs are intended to motivate executive officers to attain both short and long-term performance goals with the objective of increasing stockholder value over the long term.
We stress a philosophy that is performance driven. We believe that the performance of our Named Executives (as defined in the Summary Compensation Table on page 16) should be viewed in the context of general economic conditions, our industry, the competitive landscape and our performance. We also believe that their compensation should not be based on the short-term performance of our stock price because we expect that the price of our stock in the long-term will better reflect our true operating performance, and ultimately, the effectiveness of the management of CollaGenex by our Named Executives.
In determining total compensation, we do not have an exact formula for allocating between cash and non-cash compensation. We try, however, to balance long-term equity and short-term cash compensation by offering reasonable base salaries and opportunities for growth through our stock option and other equity incentive programs. We believe that our total compensation of Named Executives is competitive with comparable positions at companies in our industry and of comparable size.
Our compensation philosophy emphasizing performance permeates total compensation for both executives and non-executives. We believe that the design of executive compensation programs affects all of our employees and, because the performance of every employee is important to our success, we are cognizant of the effect that executive compensation may have on each member of our team.
8
The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, in accordance with its written charter, oversees all aspects of our director, officer and other executive compensation policies. The Compensation Committee also approves the individual compensation of our executive officers, including the Named Executives. The Compensation Committee reviews and approves annual and long-term performance goals under our incentive compensation plans and oversees the annual review and evaluation of the corporate and individual performance of each Named Executive. In addition, the Compensation Committee meets at least annually with the Chief Executive Officer to review his performance and to discuss his assessment of the performance of the other Named Executives.
In 2007, we retained Towers Perrin, a compensation consultant, to review our compensation levels, policies and procedures and to benchmark both the nature and overall level of compensation paid to our Named Executives and our directors using data drawn from comparable companies in the specialty pharmaceutical sector.
We do not require executives or directors to maintain any specific level of ownership in our stock, and, except as is required under the laws relating to insider trading, we do not restrict executives from hedging the economic risk of owning our shares.
Role of Chief Executive Officer in Compensation Decisions
At the request of the Compensation Committee, our Chief Executive Officer attends all or portions of periodic meetings of the Compensation Committee, but does not attend portions of any meeting in which the Compensation Committee is discussing his compensation or performance. In addition, our Compensation Committee seeks input from our Chief Executive Officer with respect to, among other things:
- •
- the development of corporate and business performance objectives against which the payment of executive bonuses will be made and his assessment of the extent to which other Named Executives have achieved such objectives; and
- •
- executive compensation trends among specialty pharmaceutical companies, including the overall blend of salary, bonus and equity compensation within such group and his recommendations pertaining to our executive compensation program.
The Chief Executive Officer submits to the Compensation Committee the goals of the Named Executives to which executive bonuses are linked. These goals are subject to the review and approval of the Compensation Committee. The Chief Executive Officer also conducts periodic discussions with each Named Executive regarding such Named Executive's progress in relation to established metrics and goals.
Elements of Compensation
Our compensation program is designed to reward each Named Executive based upon a combination of corporate performance and individual performance. Corporate performance is generally evaluated by reviewing the extent to which strategic goals are met, including the achievement of: specified operational and financial goals, such as revenue and net income (loss) targets; specific research, clinical, regulatory, commercial or compliance milestones; and business development and financing initiatives. We generally evaluate individual performance by reviewing the extent to which goals relating to specific, pre-determined individual performance criteria are achieved in each Named Executive's area of responsibility. Within each Named Executive's area of responsibility, individual performance goals are aligned with the corporate performance goals discussed above.
Executive compensation generally consists of a combination of:
9
- •
- annual cash bonuses;
- •
- stock options;
- •
- other benefits, such as health, dental, disability and life insurance;
- •
- perquisites such as travel, relocation and temporary living expenses, as necessary; and
- •
- severance and change-in-control payments.
We do not have any formal or informal policy or target for allocating compensation between long-term and short-term compensation, between cash and non-cash compensation or among the different forms of non-cash compensation. Instead, the Compensation Committee determines subjectively what it believes to be the appropriate level and mix of the various compensation components.
Base Salary. Base salaries are established for our Named Executives at levels that are intended to reflect the scope of each Named Executive's responsibilities and relevant background, training and experience. We believe that base salaries, which provide current income to each Named Executive, are a fundamental element of our executive compensation program. When establishing the base salaries of our Named Executives, the Compensation Committee takes into account the seniority of the individual, the functional role of the position, the level of the individual's responsibility and the base salaries and overall compensation paid to comparable officers in other companies with which we compete for executives. Base salaries are reviewed at least annually by our Compensation Committee, and are adjusted from time to time to ensure that our executive compensation structure remains aligned with our compensation objectives.
Annual Incentive Cash Bonus. We use annual incentive cash bonuses to motivate our Named Executives to achieve and exceed specified goals in a time frame that is typically one year in duration. The level of bonus pay for any Named Executive is related to each Named Executive's achievement of specified goals.
The goals of each Named Executive are focused upon the achievement of specific research, clinical, regulatory, commercial, financial, compliance or operational milestones. Goals are proposed as a result of periodic discussions between the Chief Executive Officer and each of the other Named Executives, and are subject to approval by the Compensation Committee. The goals of the Chief Executive Officer are set by the Compensation Committee on the basis of the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer and as a result of his detailed discussions with the Compensation Committee.
The goals of individual Named Executives are tailored to specified activities appropriate to their individual roles within our organization. The activities specified are also considered to be conducive to the creation of stockholder value and designed to contribute to our current and future financial success. We believe that optimal stockholder value creation results from appropriately balancing strategic and tactical goals for each Named Executive.
Goals may relate to objective financial metrics, such as the achievement of a specified level of sales, objective non-financial achievements, such as the approval of a product candidate or the allowance of a patent, or to qualitative performance, such as assembling and integrating a new team into our operational structure. Goals are intended to be the result of sustained focused effort on the part of the Named Executive, and it is our expectation that, in normal circumstances, each Named Executive would achieve substantially all of their goals, and may overachieve a subset of those goals. We would not expect to retain any Named Executive who consistently failed to achieve any substantial portion of their goals. In 2006, the range of goal achievement among our Named Executives was approximately 130% to 140%, while in 2007, the goal achievement range was approximately 85% to 140%.
10
Our Chief Executive Officer and each Named Executive communicate regularly regarding our progress and that of the individual Named Executive in relation to articulated goals. Every effort is made to ensure appropriate focus on the part of each Named Executive, and to ensure that identified goals are tailored to address changes in circumstances during any year. The Chief Executive Officer initially assesses the degree to which each Named Executive achieves goals in any year, and then presents his assessment to the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee then reviews and approves the Chief Executive Officer's recommendation or modifies the recommendation, if necessary.
Annual cash incentive bonus targets are set by the Compensation Committee as a percentage of each Named Executive's base salary. For the Chief Executive Officer, in 2007, this target percentage was 50% of base salary, and will remain at 50% in 2008. For the other Named Executives in 2007 it was 40% and will also remain at 40% in 2008. Overachievement of goals can result in an annual bonus that exceeds 100% of bonus target, up to a maximum pay out of 140% of bonus target. For example, a Named Executive with a base salary of $200,000 would have a target bonus of $80,000 (i.e., 40% of $200,000). If that Named Executive was assessed to have overachieved his or her goals by 25%, then his or her bonus payout would be $100,000 (i.e., 125% of $80,000), equivalent to 50% of base salary. At the same time, partial achievement of goals can result in an annual bonus that is less than 100% of bonus target. If, for example, the same Named Executive was assessed to have underachieved specified goals by 25%, then his or her bonus payout would be $60,000 (i.e., 75% of $80,000), equivalent to 30% of base salary.
In January and March of 2007, we paid bonuses to our Named Executives (which related to their performances in 2006) representing the following percentages of base salary earned in 2006.

We do not have a policy with respect to adjustment or recovery of compensation if relevant performance measures are later restated or otherwise adjusted.
Stock Options. We use equity compensation as a component of our overall compensation because we believe that granting competitively sized equity awards, in which each Named Executive realizes value based upon growth in the stock price, allows us to achieve our objectives of promoting sustained and long-term performance, increasing stockholder value and fostering retention of our Named Executives. Furthermore, we believe that equity compensation is a critical component of competitive compensation in the pharmaceutical industry in which we operate.
11
Executives who join us are awarded initial stock option grants. Additionally, the Compensation Committee approves annual grants of options to the Named Executives and certain other high-performing executives based on each individual executive's level of responsibility and perceived overall contribution to the generation of stockholder value. We do not use a quantitative formula to relate option grants to the degree to which an individual achieved his or her goals for a particular year. Goal achievement and non-goal specific activities are factored into making the assessment of an executive's overall contribution. We intend that the annual aggregate value of awards (using the Black-Scholes or equivalent valuation methodology) of options to executives will be set near competitive levels for companies represented in the compensation data we review. Typically option grants vest in equal annual installments over a five-year period beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant.
Each year, the Compensation Committee approves an annual stock option pool, that includes a pool of options for directors, a pool for Named Executives, a pool for specified senior managers and a pool to be allocated among a limited number of high-performing non-officer employees from each of our field and home office teams. This pool of stock options is valued according to applicable accounting conventions, and included in the annual budget. The annual budget is then subject to the approval of the Board.
The Compensation Committee's procedure for timing of stock option grants provides assurance that grant timing is not being manipulated to result in a price that is favorable to employees. It is our policy that the annual stock option grant date for all eligible employees, including the Named Executives, is linked to the first Board meeting in each calendar year, which is normally in late February or early March. This date is established well in advance and then confirmed by the Compensation Committee, typically at the Compensation Committee's meeting in December of the preceding year. The late February or early March grant date timing is driven by the fact that it coincides with our calendar-year-based performance management cycle, allowing us to deliver the equity awards close in time to performance appraisals, which increases the impact of the awards by strengthening the link between pay and performance.
Aside from the annual stock option grant, it is our policy that options will normally be granted:
- •
- to non-management members of the Board on the date of our annual general meeting in each calendar year; and
- •
- to new hires on their date of hire.
We have adopted a policy relating to the grant of options that provides that in approving the date of any option grant outside these "normal" dates, our Board must take into account whether the designated date may give rise to any legal or financial reporting obligations, or may otherwise give rise to concerns related to the timing of option grants, and whether such designated date is in our best interests. Since adopting this policy in 2006, we have not made any awards outside the "normal" dates described above.
The Compensation Committee sets the exercise price of all stock options to equal the closing price of our common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market on the date of grant and under no circumstances will the date on which the grant of an option is recorded in our records precede the date on which such option was actually granted.
Following the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 25, 2008, with Galderma Laboratories, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Galderma Acquisition Inc., a Delaware corporation, which contemplated a cash tender offer by Galderma for all of the outstanding shares of our common stock followed by a merger of Galderma Acquisition Inc. into CollaGenex, with CollaGenex continuing as the surviving entity. Under the terms of this merger agreement, each option to purchase a share of our common stock, whether under any of our stock option plans or pursuant to individual award agreements, outstanding
12
immediately prior to the effective time of the merger (whether or not vested) would be cancelled at the effective time of the merger and each holder would be entitled to receive, in full satisfaction of such option, a cash amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the price offered for each share of our common stock in the cash tender offer made by Galderma over (ii) the exercise price payable in respect of such share of our common stock issuable under such option. Any option with an exercise price equal to or greater than the price offered for each share of our common stock in the cash tender offer would be canceled without consideration and be of no further force or effect.
Upon effectivness of our merger with Galderma, the Named Executives would be entitled to receive payments of approximately the following amounts in connection with the cancellation of their outstanding options: Colin W. Stewart, $3,324,237; Nancy C. Broadbent, $1,721,002; David F. Pfeiffer, $1,733,935; Klaus Theobald, $977,218; and Andrew K.W. Powell, $944,801.
In December 2007, prior to our entry into the merger agreement with Galderma, our Compensation Committee, in accordance with our "normal" practice for the annual grant of options to our Named Executives, approved certain options for grant to our Named Executives. We entered into the merger agreement with Galderma prior to the grant of these options, and in connection with our entry into the merger agreement, our Board determined not to grant these options.
Benefits and Other Compensation. We provide our Named Executives with other benefits, reflected in the All Other Compensation column in the Summary Compensation Table, that we believe are reasonable, competitive and consistent with our overall executive compensation program. We believe that these benefits generally allow our executives to optimize the value received from all of the compensation and benefit programs offered. The costs of these benefits constitute only a small percentage of each Named Executive's total compensation, and include premiums paid on disability and life insurance policies, our contributions to medical insurance coverage and 401(k) matching.
Perquisites. We do not generally provide significant perquisites or personal benefits to our Named Executives.
Change of Control Payments. Our Named Executives are party to change of control agreements that specify accelerated vesting of stock options and the payment of certain other amounts upon a change of control. We provide for these change of control arrangements because we recognize that, as is the case with many publicly held corporations, the possibility of a change in control of CollaGenex exists and such possibility, and the uncertainty and questions which it may raise among our Named Executives, could result in the departure or distraction of Named Executives to the detriment of our stockholders and us. Our Compensation Committee has determined that providing such change-of-control-related benefits reinforces and encourages the continued employment and dedication of our Named Executives without distraction from the possibility of a change in control and related events and circumstances. We believe that such agreements are important to attract and retain the best possible executive talent.
Under the change of control agreements, in the event the employment of Ms. Broadbent or any of Messrs. Stewart, Pfeiffer, Theobald or Powell is terminated as a result of an involuntary termination within 24 months of a change of control, each as defined in the agreements, Ms. Broadbent and Messrs. Stewart, Pfeiffer, Theobald and Powell are entitled to receive, among other things, (i) a lump sum payment of two times base salary and two times the average bonus paid (two and a half times base salary and average bonus paid in the case of Mr. Stewart) for the three fiscal years prior to the termination date, as defined in the agreements, (ii) health coverage and benefits for a period of 24 months and (iii) certain outplacement/administrative support for a period of 18 months. In addition, under the change of control agreements, if a change of control occurs while Ms. Broadbent or any of Messrs. Stewart, Pfeiffer, Theobald or Powell is employed by us, regardless of whether their employment relationship with us continues following such change of control, then all stock options
13
granted to these individuals prior to the change of control will become fully vested and exercisable as of the date of the change of control to the extent such stock options are outstanding and unexercisable at the time of such termination.
In addition, each change of control agreement provides for an additional payment if a Named Executive would be subject to an excise tax, interest or penalty based on a payment provided for in the applicable change of control agreement.
The transactions contemplated by our merger agreement with Galderma would, if consummated, constitute a "change of control" for purposes of these change of control agreements. For a further description of the foregoing arrangements, see "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control."
Tax and Accounting Considerations
It is our policy generally to qualify compensation paid to executive officers for deductibility under section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Section 162(m) generally prohibits us from deducting the compensation of executive officers that exceeds $1,000,000 unless that compensation is based on the satisfaction of objective performance goals. Our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan is structured to permit awards under such plan to qualify as performance-based compensation and to maximize the tax deductibility of such awards. However, we reserve the discretion to pay compensation to our executive officers that may not be deductible.
We account for equity compensation paid to our employees under the rules of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment, referred to as SFAS 123(R), that requires us to measure and recognize compensation expense in our consolidated financial statements for all share-based payments based upon an estimate of their fair value over the service period of the award. We record cash compensation as an expense at the time the obligation is accrued. We do not give consideration to the accounting impact of executive compensation when determining the nature or size of awards.
14
Non-Employee Director Compensation
Non-employee director compensation is set by the Board at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. In 2006, the Compensation Committee recommended, and the Board approved, a new compensation and benefit program for non-management directors. In developing its recommendations, the Compensation Committee was guided by the following goals: compensation should fairly pay directors for work required in a company of our size and scope; compensation should align directors' interests with the long-term interest of stockholders; and the structure of the compensation should be simple, transparent and easy for stockholders to understand. At that time, the Board determined that each non-employee director would receive an annual retainer, a fee for each regularly scheduled board meeting attended in person, an annual fee for each committee on which the non-management director served and a fee for each committee the non-employee director chaired. In April 2007, the Board reexamined and approved a similar compensation and benefit program for non-employee directors, adding a fee for each committee meeting attended. The Board also approved reimbursement to directors for reasonable and necessary expenses incurred in connection with attendance at meetings of the Board and other Company business.
Upon appointment, each new non-management director is granted an option to purchase shares of Common Stock. Upon re-election at our annual meetings of stockholders, each non-management director is also granted an option to purchase shares of Common Stock. The number of options which a non-management director has the right to exercise each year may be reduced proportionately based on such non-management director's attendance at meetings of the Board if the non-management director fails to attend at least 75% of the meetings of the Board held in any calendar year.
For a further description of the compensation paid to non-management directors for 2007 and to be paid in 2008, see "DIRECTOR COMPENSATION."

- The aggregate dollar amount realized upon the exercise of an option represents the difference between the aggregate market price of the shares of our common stock underlying that option on the date of exercise and the aggregate exercise price of the option.
Employment, Severance and Change of Control Arrangements
We do not have formal employment agreements with any of our Named Executives. The employment of each Named Executive with us is on an at-will basis. Other than the change of control agreements discussed below, none of our Named Executives is currently party to a change in control or severance agreement with us. Our Board has the discretion to modify the compensation of each Named Executive.
As a condition to their employment, each Named Executive entered into a non-solicitation, invention assignment and non-disclosure agreement. Under these agreements, our Named Executive have agreed (i) not to solicit our employees during their employment and for a period of 24 months after the termination of their employment and (ii) to protect our confidential and proprietary information and to assign intellectual property developed during the course of their employment to us.
In addition, Ms. Broadbent and Mr. Pfeiffer have agreed that during the term of their employment and for a period of two years thereafter, they will not directly or indirectly provide services to or for any business engaged in research regarding the development, manufacture, testing, marketing or sale of collagenase inhibiting drugs for application in periodontal disease or any other application which, during the period of their employment with us, is either marketed or in advanced clinical development by us.
We have executed indemnification agreements with each of our Named Executives pursuant to which we have agreed to indemnify such parties to the full extent permitted by law, subject to certain
20
exceptions, if any such party becomes subject to an action because such party is our officer, employee, agent or fiduciary.
On October 16, 2006, we entered into change of control agreements with Ms. Broadbent and Messrs. Stewart, Pfeiffer, Theobald and Powell. Under the change of control agreements, in the event the employment of Ms. Broadbent or any of Messrs. Stewart, Pfeiffer, Theobald or Powell is terminated as a result of an involuntary termination within 24 months of a change of control, each as defined in the agreements, Ms. Broadbent and Messrs. Stewart, Pfeiffer, Theobald and Powell are entitled to receive, among other things, (i) a lump sum payment of two times base salary and two times the average bonus paid (two and a half times base salary and average bonus paid, in the case of Mr. Stewart) for the three fiscal years prior to the termination date, as defined in the agreements, (ii) health coverage and benefits for a period of 24 months and (iii) certain outplacement/administrative support for a period of 18 months. In addition, under the change of control agreements, if a change of control occurs while Ms. Broadbent or any of Messrs. Stewart, Pfeiffer, Theobald or Powell is employed by us, regardless of whether their employment relationship with us continues following such change of control, then all stock options granted to these individuals prior to the change of control will become fully vested and exercisable as of the date of the change of control to the extent such stock options are outstanding and unexercisable at the time of such termination.
In addition, each of the change of control agreements provides for an additional payment if a Named Executive would be subject to an excise tax, interest or penalty based on a payment provided for in the applicable change of control agreement.
The transactions contemplated by our merger agreement with Galderma would, if consummated, constitute a "change of control" for purposes of these change of control agreements.
Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Under the terms of our merger agreement with Galderma, if the merger with Galderma is consummated, each option to purchase a share of our common stock, whether under any of our stock option plans or pursuant to individual award agreements, outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger (whether or not vested) would be cancelled at the effective time of the merger and each holder would be entitled to receive, in full satisfaction of such option, a cash amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the price offered for each share of our common stock in the cash tender offer by Galderma prior to the merger over (ii) the exercise price payable in respect of such share of our common stock issuable under such option. Any option with an exercise price equal to or greater than the price offered for each share of our common stock in the cash tender offer would be canceled without consideration and be of no further force or effect.
Upon effectiveness of the merger with Galderma, our non-employee directors would be entitled to receive payments of approximately the following amounts in connection with the cancellation of their outstanding options: Peter R. Barnett, $534,120; Robert A. Beardsley, $557,610; Robert C. Black, $642,870; James E. Daverman, $726,748; Robert J. Easton, $534,120; George M. Lasezkay, $308,620; and W. James O'Shea, $729,245.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
The Compensation Committee currently consists of, and during 2007 consisted of, W. James O'Shea, who serves as Chairman, Robert C. Black and Robert J. Easton. There are no, and during 2007 there were no, Compensation Committee interlocks.
As of February 25, 2008, Mr. Easton, in his individual capacity, held 45,859 shares of our common stock. Such shares of common stock include those shares of common stock that were previously issued by us upon conversion of our Series A preferred stock, Series B preferred stock and Series C preferred stock previously held by Mr. Easton. By virtue of the registration rights described below, Mr. Easton would, under certain circumstances, be entitled to require us to register these shares for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
As of February 25, 2008, Mr. Easton also held 2,000 shares of our Series D-1 preferred stock that were convertible into 23,529 shares of our common stock as of such date. On February 25, 2008, Mr. Easton entered into a Preferred Stockholder Agreement, pursuant to which Mr. Easton agreed to, among other things, sell his shares of Series D-1 preferred stock to Galderma concurrently with the closing of the cash tender offer to be made by Galderma in connection with the transactions contemplated by our merger agreement with Galderma.
25
In September 1995, we entered into a registration rights agreement with each of the then holders of our Series A, Series B and Series C redeemable preferred stock pursuant to which we have granted certain registration rights to such stockholders. Pursuant to such registration rights agreement, at any time beginning six months after June 20, 1996, the effective date of our initial public offering, the holders of at least a majority of the common stock issued upon the conversion of the Series A, Series B and Series C redeemable preferred stock, referred to collectively as the Registrable Securities, have the right, subject to certain restrictions set forth in the registration rights agreement, to require that we register the Registrable Securities requested by such holders at our expense (on no more than two occasions) on either a Form S-1, Form S-2 or Form S-3 Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We are not, however, required to register any Registrable Securities unless such shares represent at least 10% of our outstanding shares of common stock, or, if less than 10%, if the anticipated aggregate offering price exceeds $1,000,000.
The holders of Registrable Securities also have the right to an unlimited number of registrations on Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We are not, however, required to effect such a registration unless the requesting holders reasonably anticipate having an aggregate disposition price of at least $500,000.
Also in September 1995, we granted to the then holders of Series A, Series B and Series C redeemable preferred stock certain rights to participate in certain future offerings undertaken by us. Such rights to participate require that, with certain exceptions including, but not limited to, an underwritten public offering, any time we propose to issue, sell or exchange, or reserve therefor, any securities, we must first offer to sell to each of the pre-conversion holders of Series A, Series B and Series C redeemable preferred stock their respective pro rata share of such securities at a price and on terms identical to the price and terms of the securities proposed to be issued, sold or exchanged in the applicable offering.
In May 1999, we entered into a Stockholder and Registration Rights Agreement with each of the holders of our Series D preferred stock, or the Series D Holders, pursuant to which, among other things, we registered on a Registration Statements on Form S-3 all of the shares of our common stock underlying the shares of Series D preferred stock and all of the shares of common stock issued as dividends on the Series D preferred stock to the holders thereof.
On December 15, 2005, we executed a Restructuring and Exchange Agreement, or the Restructuring Agreement, with each of the Series D Holders pursuant to which the Series D Holders agreed to effect an exchange whereby we exchanged all 200,000 outstanding shares of Series D preferred stock for 200,000 shares of the Series D-1 preferred stock. We subsequently registered all of the shares of common stock underlying the shares of Series D-1 preferred stock on a Registration Statement on Form S-3.
The holders of at least a majority of the Series D-1 preferred stock also have the right, subject to certain restrictions, to require us to register the shares of common stock underlying their Series D-1 preferred stock on a Registration Statement on Form S-1 at our expense (on no more than two occasions). Also, pursuant to the Stockholder and Registration Rights Agreement, if we propose to register any of our securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for sale to the public, the holders of the Series D-1 preferred stock have certain piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock underlying their Series D-1 preferred stock at our expense, subject to certain restrictions. In addition, if we grant registration rights to the holders of any of our securities that are more favorable than the registration rights granted under the Stockholder and Registration Rights Agreement, then the holders of the Series D-1 preferred stock shall be deemed to have been granted such superior registration rights as well with respect to the shares of common stock underlying their Series D-1 preferred stock. Also pursuant to the terms of the Stockholder and Registration Rights
26
Agreement, the holders of Series D-1 preferred stock have certain rights of first refusal with respect to certain stock issuances by us.

In certain circumstances, if the closing price of our Common Stock, as quoted on NASDAQ, exceeds a pre-determined per share price for a certain number of consecutive days, a portion of such options will vest immediately.
On August 11, 2004, we granted options to Greg Ford, our Vice President, Business Development and Strategic Planning, and Brad Zerler, our Vice President of Research, in connection with the commencement of their employment.

CHANGES IN CONTROL
Galderma Acquisition Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Galderma Laboratories, Inc., a Delaware corporation, disclosed in a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, dated March 10, 2008 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, a cash tender offer to purchase for cash all of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, at a price of $16.60 per share, subject to any required withholding of taxes, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon (such price, or any higher price paid pursuant to the cash tender offer referred to as the "Offer Price"), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated March 10, 2008, and the related Letter of Transmittal.
This cash tender offer was made in conjunction with a merger agreement that we entered into with Galderma on February 25, 2008, which provides, among other things, for the making of the cash tender offer and further provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the merger agreement, and in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law, Galderma Acquisition Inc.
33
will be merged with and into CollaGenex, the separate corporate existence of Galderma Acquisition Inc. will cease, and CollaGenex will continue as the surviving corporation.
In this merger (i) each share of our common stock remaining outstanding (other than shares held by Galderma Laboratories, Inc., Galderma Acquisition Inc., or any of our subsidiaries or by CollaGenex stockholders who have perfected their appraisal rights under Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) will be converted into the Offer Price and (ii) each outstanding share of our Series D-1 preferred stock (other than shares held by Galderma Laboratories, Inc., Galderma Acquisition Inc., or any of our subsidiaries or by CollaGenex stockholders who have perfected their appraisal rights under Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) will be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of the number of shares of common stock into which such shares of Series D-1 preferred stock are convertible (pursuant to and in accordance with Section A.5 of the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of our Series D-1 preferred stock, dated as of December 19, 2005) multiplied by the Offer Price.
In connection with the merger agreement, the holders of our Series D-1 preferred stock entered into a Preferred Stockholder Agreement on February 25, 2008, pursuant to which they agreed to, among other things, sell their shares of Series D-1 preferred stock to Galderma concurrently with the closing of the cash tender offer made by Galderma.
The cash tender offer, the sale of all our outstanding Series D-1 preferred stock upon the closing of the cash tender offer and the merger with Galderma Acquisition Inc. would, if consummated, result in a change of control of CollaGenex.
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS
Our Board has adopted written policies and procedures for the review of any transaction, arrangement or relationship in which we are a participant, the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and one of our executive officers, directors, director nominees or 5% stockholders (or their immediate family members), each of whom we refer to as a "related person," has a direct or indirect material interest.
If a related person proposes to enter into such a transaction, arrangement or relationship, which we refer to as a "related person transaction," the related person must report the proposed related person transaction to our general counsel. The policy calls for the proposed related person transaction to be reviewed and, if deemed appropriate, approved by our Audit Committee. Whenever practicable, the reporting, review and approval will occur prior to entry into the transaction. If advance review and approval is not practicable, the Audit Committee will review and, in its discretion, may ratify the related person transaction. The policy also permits the chairman of the Audit Committee to review and, if deemed appropriate, approve proposed related person transactions that arise between committee meetings, subject to ratification by the Audit Committee at its next meeting. Any related person transactions that are ongoing in nature will be reviewed annually.
A related person transaction reviewed under the policy will be considered approved or ratified if it is authorized by the Audit Committee after full disclosure of the related person's interest in the transaction. As appropriate for the circumstances, the Audit Committee will review and consider:
- •
- the related person's interest in the related person transaction;
- •
- the approximate dollar value of the amount involved in the related person transaction;
- •
- the approximate dollar value of the amount of the related person's interest in the transaction without regard to the amount of any profit or loss;

- •
- whether the transaction was undertaken in the ordinary course of our business;
- •
- whether the terms of the transaction are no less favorable to us than terms that could have been reached with an unrelated third party;
- •
- the purpose of, and the potential benefits to us of, the transaction; and
- •
- any other information regarding the related person transaction or the related person in the context of the proposed transaction that would be material to investors in light of the circumstances of the particular transaction.
The Audit Committee may approve or ratify the transaction only if the Audit Committee determines that, under all of the applicable circumstances listed above, the transaction is in our best interests. The Audit Committee may impose any conditions on the related person transaction that it deems appropriate.
In addition to the transactions that are excluded by the instructions to the Securities and Exchange Commision's related person transaction disclosure rule, the Board has determined that the following transactions do not create a direct or indirect material interest on behalf of related persons and, therefore, are not related person transactions for purposes of this policy:
- •
- interests arising solely from the related person's position as an executive officer of another entity (whether or not the person is also a director of such entity) that is a participant in the transaction, where (a) the related person and all other related persons own in the aggregate less than a 10% equity interest in such entity, (b) the related person and his or her immediate family members are not involved in the negotiation of the terms of the transaction and do not receive any special benefits as a result of the transaction, and (c) the amount involved in the transaction equals less than the greater of $200,000 or 5% of the annual gross revenues of the company receiving payment under the transaction; and
- •
- a transaction that is specifically contemplated by provisions of our charter or bylaws.
The policy provides that transactions involving compensation of executive officers shall be reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee in the manner specified in its charter.
DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Under applicable NASDAQ rules, a director will only qualify as an "independent director" if, in the opinion of the Board, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The Board has determined that none of Messrs. Barnett, Beardsley, Black, Daverman, Easton, Lasezkay or O'Shea, who comprise our Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees, has a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is "independent" as that term is defined under Rule 4200(a)(15) of NASDAQ. In determining the independence of the directors listed above, our Board considered the registration rights discussed below.
