2003 PROXY STATEMENT
INFORMATION CONCERNING VOTING AND SOLICITATION
General
The enclosed proxy is solicited on behalf of the Board of Directors (the "Board of Directors" or the "Board") of Inamed Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company" or "Inamed"), for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") to be held on July 11, 2003, at 8:30 A.M. Pacific Time, or at any continuation, postponement or adjournment thereof, for the purposes discussed in this proxy statement and in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and any business properly brought before the Annual Meeting. Proxies are solicited to give all stockholders of record an opportunity to vote on matters properly presented at the Annual Meeting. The Company intends to mail this proxy statement and accompanying proxy card on or about June 16, 2003 to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting will be held at the Fess Parker's DoubleTree Resort, 633 East Cabrillo Boulevard, Santa Barbara, California 93103.
Who Can Vote
You are entitled to vote if you were a stockholder of record of Inamed common stock (the "Common Stock") as of the close of business on May 30, 2003. Your shares can be voted at the Annual Meeting only if you are present in person or represented by a valid proxy.
Shares Outstanding and Quorum
At the close of business on May 30, 2003, there were outstanding and entitled to vote 22,631,496 shares of Common Stock. A majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote, will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting.
Voting of Shares
Stockholders of record on May 30, 2003 are entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held on all matters to be voted upon at the meeting. You may vote by completing and mailing the enclosed proxy card. All shares entitled to vote and represented by properly executed proxies received before the polls are closed at the Annual Meeting, and not revoked or superseded, will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions indicated on those proxies. YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT.
Proxy Card and Revocation of Proxy
If you sign the proxy card but do not specify how you want your shares to be voted, your shares will be voted in favor of the proposals. In their discretion, the proxy holders named in the enclosed proxy are authorized to vote on any other matters that may properly come before the Annual Meeting and at any continuation, postponement or adjournment thereof. The Board of Directors knows of no other business that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. In addition, since no stockholder proposals or nominations were received on a timely basis, no such matters may be brought at the Annual Meeting.
If you vote by proxy, you may revoke that proxy at any time before it is voted at the Annual Meeting. You can revoke your proxy by sending to the Secretary a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by attending the Annual Meeting in person and voting in person. Attendance at the meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy.
Counting of Votes
All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of elections appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, and any abstentions and broker non-votes. Shares represented by proxies that reflect abstentions as to a particular proposal will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. An abstention is counted as a vote against that proposal. Shares represented by proxies that reflect a broker "non-vote" will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. A broker "non-vote" will be treated as unvoted for purposes of determining approval of a proposal and will not be counted as "for" or "against" that proposal. A broker "non-vote" occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary authority or does not have instructions for the beneficial owner.
Solicitation of Proxies
The Company will bear the entire cost of solicitation of proxies, including preparation, assembly and mailing of this proxy statement, the proxy and any additional information furnished to stockholders. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to banks, brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding shares of the Common Stock in their names that are beneficially owned by others to forward to these beneficial owners. The Company may reimburse persons representing beneficial owners for their costs of forwarding the solicitation material to the beneficial owners. Original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by telephone, telegram or personal solicitation by directors, officers or other regular employees of the Company. No additional compensation will be paid to directors, officers or other regular employees for such services.

PROPOSAL NO. 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
The terms of office of the current directors, Nicholas Teti, James Bolin, Malcolm Currie, John Doyle and Mitchell Rosenthal, expire in 2003 and all are nominees for election to the Board. In addition, the Board has nominated two new candidates for election to the Board to fill an existing vacancy and the vacancy created by David Tepper's decision not to stand for re-election. Those candidates are Ms. Joy A. Amundson and Mr. Terry E. Vandewarker. If elected at the Annual Meeting, each director would serve until the 2004 Annual Meeting.
Directors are elected by a plurality of the shares present and entitled to vote, which means the seven nominees who receive the largest number of properly cast votes will be elected as directors. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each of the seven director nominees. Cumulative voting is not permitted and abstentions and broker non-votes have no effect on the vote. It is the intention of the proxy holders named in the enclosed proxy to vote the proxies received by them for the election of the nominees named below unless authorization to do so is withheld. If any nominee should become unavailable for election prior to the Annual Meeting, an event which currently is not anticipated by the Board, the proxies will be voted for the election of a substitute nominee or nominees proposed by the Board. Each nominee has agreed to serve if elected and management has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE NOMINEES FOR DIRECTOR.

Meetings of the Board of Directors
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, the Board held eight meetings and acted by unanimous written consent three times. During the last fiscal year, no director attended fewer than 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board and all of the committees of the Board on which such director served held during that period.
Committees of the Board of Directors
Each of the Committees listed below is responsible to the full Board of Directors, and its activities are therefore subject to Board approval. The functions performed by these Committees are summarized below:
Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee recommends to the Board all aspects of compensation arrangements for the executive officers of the Company for certain of the Company's other senior employees. The Committee also administers the Company's stock option and stock purchase plans and the Company's senior management bonus plan. The Compensation Committee met four times in 2002. Mr. Doyle served as Chair, and Mr. Bolin and Dr. Rosenthal served as members of the Committee.
Audit Committee. The Audit Committee met nine times in 2002. The Audit Committee has oversight responsibilities with respect to the Company's annual audit and quarterly reviews, the Company's system of internal controls and the Company's audit, accounting and financial reporting processes. The Audit Committee makes a recommendation to the Board regarding the selection of the Company's independent auditors and meets with the independent auditors regularly in fulfilling the above responsibilities. All members of the Audit Committee are independent directors (as defined by
5
the National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD")) and meet the applicable NASD requirements for financial literacy and financial expertise. For the year 2002, Dr. Currie served as Chair, and Mr. Bolin and Mr. Doyle served as members of the Audit Committee. The Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee.
Nominating Committee. The Nominating Committee recommends nominees to the Board. The Nominating Committee will consider, as potential nominees, persons recommended by stockholders in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Company's By-laws. The Company's By-laws provide that a stockholder nominating persons for election to the Board of Directors, in general, must give notice thereof in writing to the secretary of the Company not less than 90 nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting. During the year 2002, Mr. Babbit, Mr. Teti and Mr. Tepper served as members of the Nominating Committee. In late 2002, Mr. Babbitt resigned as Chair of the Nominating Committee concurrent with his resignation from the Board and he was replaced by Dr. Rosenthal. Mr. Teti also resigned from the Nominating Committee in 2002 and he was replaced by Dr. Currie. Mr. Tepper currently serves on the Nominating Committee, but he is not seeking to be re-elected as a director and will resign from the Nominating Committee upon the expiration of his current term as a director. The Nominating Committee held one formal meeting during 2002 and held several informal discussions throughout the year.
Directors' Compensation
Directors who are not employees of the Company receive an annual fee of $35,000 and a fee of $1,000 for each Board of Directors meeting attended, and are reimbursed for their expenses. In addition, upon their initial election, directors receive an option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock, and thereafter receive an option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock on each subsequent anniversary of their election to the Board of Directors for so long as they remain directors. Directors who are employees of the Company are not entitled to any compensation for their service as a director. Pursuant to a plan adopted in 1999, directors may elect to receive their compensation in Common Stock in lieu of cash. Four directors have elected this option. The Board has submitted for stockholder approval at this Annual Meeting of Stockholders a new Outside Directors Compensation Plan which will modify certain historical compensation practices as described in this Proxy Statement under Proposal 4.

PROPOSAL NO. 2
APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO THE INAMED CORPORATION
2000 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders will be asked to approve an amendment to the Inamed Corporation 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan") which will (i) increase the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Purchase Plan and (ii) permit all eligible employees of Inamed to participate in the Purchase Plan. A full copy of the Purchase Plan, as amended by the Board, is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex A.
Specifically, the stockholders will be asked to increase the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Purchase Plan by Two Hundred Thousand (200,000) shares. Inamed's stockholders have previously approved the reservation of Two Hundred Thousand (200,000) shares of Inamed's Common Stock for purchase by employees under the Purchase Plan. As of June 1, 2003, a total of Thirty-Two Thousand Two Hundred and Sixty-Five (32,265) shares remain available for future purchases, without giving effect to the proposed amendment. It is anticipated that, without the stockholders approving this amendment, the share reserve remaining under the Purchase Plan will be completely exhausted as of the purchase period ending on July 31, 2003. Consequently, the Board has amended the Purchase Plan, contingent on stockholder approval, to authorize an increase in the share reserve so as to continue to offer eligible employees the ability to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Purchase Plan.
In addition, the stockholders will be asked to approve the plan amendment which will allow all employees of Inamed, and any designated subsidiary of Inamed, who regularly work twenty (20) hours or more per week and who have completed one (1) year of service with Inamed or the designated subsidiary, to participate in the Purchase Plan. This amendment would remove a restriction on certain highly compensated employees from being eligible to participate in the Purchase Plan.
The Board believes that the Purchase Plan benefits Inamed and its stockholders by providing all of its eligible employees with an opportunity to purchase shares of Common Stock through payroll deductions that helps to attract, retain and motivate valued employees. To provide a reasonable reserve of shares to permit Inamed to continue offering this opportunity to its employees, and to ensure that the broadest range of Inamed employees are eligible under the Purchase Plan, the Board has adopted, as of May 12, 2003 and subject to stockholder approval, an amendment to (i) increase the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Purchase Plan by Two Hundred Thousand (200,000) shares, to a total of Four Hundred Thousand (400,000) shares and (ii) to remove the restriction prohibiting certain highly compensated employees from participation in the Purchase Plan.
Summary of the Current Purchase Plan
General. At the beginning of each offering under the Purchase Plan (an "Offering"), each participant in the Purchase Plan is granted the right to purchase, through accumulated payroll deductions, up to a number of shares of our Common Stock determined on the first day of the Offering (a "Purchase Right"). The Purchase Right is automatically exercised on the last day of the Offering Period (the "Purchase Date") unless the participant has withdrawn from participation in the Purchase Plan prior to such date. The Purchase Plan is intended to qualify as an "employee stock purchase plan" under section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Authorized Shares. Prior to the approval of this amendment by the stockholders, a maximum of Two Hundred Thousand (200,000) of Inamed's authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of Common Stock have been authorized for issuance under the Purchase Plan, subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization or similar change in the capital structure of Inamed, or in the event of any merger, sale of assets or other reorganization of Inamed. Currently, only Thirty-Two Thousand Two Hundred and Sixty-Five (32,265)
7
shares remain available for issuance under the Purchase Plan. It is anticipated that unless the shareholders approve this share reserve increase that the remaining share reserve under the Purchase Plan will be completely exhausted as of the purchase period ending on July 31, 2003. If any Purchase Right expires or terminates, the shares subject to the unexercised portion of such Purchase Right will again be available for issuance under the Purchase Plan.
Administration. The Purchase Plan is administered by the Board or a committee of the Board. (For purposes of this discussion, the term "Board" refers to either the Board of Directors or such committee.) Subject to the provisions of the Purchase Plan, the Board determines the terms and conditions of Purchase Rights granted under the plan. The Board has the authority to interpret the Purchase Plan and Purchase Rights granted thereunder, and any such interpretation of the Board will be binding.
Eligibility. Any employee of Inamed or any parent or subsidiary of Inamed designated by the Board for inclusion in the Purchase Plan is eligible to participate in an Offering under the plan so long as the employee is customarily employed for at least 20 hours per week and has completed a year of service with Inamed, unless that employee either (i) owns or holds options to purchase, or as a result of participation in the Purchase Plan, would own or hold options to purchase, five percent or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of Inamed or of any parent or subsidiary of Inamed or (ii) until this amendment is approved by the stockholders, is a highly compensated employee as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. As of June 1, 2003, approximately 600 employees were eligible to participate in the Purchase Plan.
Offerings. Generally, each Offering under the Purchase Plan is for a period of six (6) months (an "Offering Period"). Offering Periods under the Purchase Plan generally begin every six months. Offering Periods generally commence on February 1 and August 1 of each year (each an "Offering Date") and end on July 31 and January 31, respectively, of each year following the Offering Date. Shares are purchased on the last day of each Offering Period (each a "Purchase Date"). The Board may establish a different term for any Offering (not to exceed 27 months) or different commencement or ending dates for an Offering.
Participation and Purchase of Shares. Participation in an Offering under the Purchase Plan is limited to eligible employees who authorize payroll deductions prior to the first day of an Offering Period (the "Offering Date"). Payroll deductions may not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of an employee's compensation on any payday during the Offering Period, provided that the Board may establish a different limit from time to time. An employee who becomes a participant in the Purchase Plan will automatically participate in each Offering beginning immediately after the last day of the Offering Period in which he or she is a participant until the employee withdraws from the Purchase Plan, becomes ineligible to participate, or terminates employment.
Subject to any uniform limitations or notice requirements imposed by Inamed, a participant may increase or decrease his or her rate of payroll deductions or withdraw from the Purchase Plan at any time during an Offering. Upon withdrawal, Inamed will refund without interest the participant's accumulated payroll deductions not previously applied to the purchase of shares. Once a participant withdraws from an Offering, that participant may not again participate in the same Offering at any later time.
No participant may purchase shares of Common Stock under the Purchase Plan or any other employee stock purchase plan of Inamed having a fair market value exceeding $25,000 (based on the fair market value of Inamed's Common Stock on the first day of the Offering Period in which the shares are purchased) for each calendar year in which a Purchase Right is outstanding.
On each Purchase Date, we issue to each participant in the Offering the number of shares of our Common Stock equal to the amount of payroll deductions accumulated for the participant during the
8
Purchase Period divided by the purchase price, limited in any case by the number of shares subject to the participant's Purchase Right for that Offering. The price at which shares are sold under the Purchase Plan is established by the Board but may not be less than 85% of the lesser of the fair market value per share of Common Stock on the Offering Date or on the Purchase Date. The fair market value of the Common Stock on any relevant date generally will be the closing price per share as reported on the Nasdaq National Market. On May 27, 2003, the closing price of our Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market was $47.98 per share. Any payroll deductions under the Purchase Plan not applied to the purchase of shares will be returned to the participant without interest, unless the amount remaining is less than the amount necessary to purchase a whole share of Common Stock, in which case the remaining amount may be applied to the next Offering Period.
Change in Control. The Purchase Plan defines a "Change in Control" of Inamed as any of the following events upon which the stockholders of Inamed immediately before the event do not retain immediately after the event, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of shares of Inamed's voting stock immediately before the event, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of a majority of the total combined voting power of the stock of Inamed, its successor, or the corporation to which the assets of Inamed were transferred: (i) a sale or exchange by the stockholders in a single or series of related transactions of more than 50% of Inamed's voting stock; (ii) a merger or consolidation in which Inamed is a party; (iii) the sale, exchange or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Inamed; or (iv) a liquidation or dissolution of Inamed. In addition, the Purchase Plan defines a "Change in Control" to have occurred if during any two consecutive year period, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board, and any new director whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Inamed's stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board. If a Change in Control occurs, the surviving, continuing, successor or purchasing corporation or parent corporation thereof may assume Inamed's rights and obligations under the Purchase Plan. However, if such corporation elects not to assume the outstanding Purchase Rights, the Purchase Date of the then current Offering Period will be accelerated to a date specified by the Board that occurs before the Change in Control. Any Purchase Rights that are not assumed or exercised prior to the Change in Control will terminate.
Termination or Amendment. The Purchase Plan will continue until terminated by the Board or until all of the shares reserved for issuance under the plan have been issued. The Board may amend or terminate the Purchase Plan at any time, except that the approval of Inamed's stockholders is required within 12 months of the adoption of any amendment increasing the number of shares authorized for issuance under the Purchase Plan, or changing the employees or class of employees who may participate in the Purchase Plan.
Shares Purchased by Certain Persons
None of the following certain persons have purchased any shares of Common Stock under the Purchase Plan since its inception: (i) Nicholas Teti, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer; (ii) Vicente Trelles, Executive Vice President and Chief Operations Officer; (iii) Ken Pearce, President, Inamed International; (iv) Declan Daly, Senior Vice President, Corporate Controller and Principal Accounting Officer; (v) Hani Zeini, Executive Vice President, North America Inamed Aesthetics; (vi) all current executive officers as a group; and (vii) all employees, including current officers who are not executive officers, as a group. None of our directors who are not executive officers are eligible to participate in the Purchase Plan. Since its inception, no shares have been issued under the Purchase Plan to any other nominee for election as a director, or any associate of any such director, nominee or executive officer, and no other person has been issued five percent or more of the total amount of shares issued under the Purchase Plan.

Summary of U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following summary is intended only as a general guide as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of participation in the Purchase Plan and does not attempt to describe all possible federal or other tax consequences of such participation or tax consequences based on particular circumstances.
Generally, there are no tax consequences to an employee of either becoming a participant in the Purchase Plan or purchasing shares under the Purchase Plan. The tax consequences of a disposition of shares vary depending on the period such stock is held before its disposition. If a participant disposes of shares within two years after the Offering Date or within one year after the Purchase Date on which the shares are acquired (such disposition being referred to as a "disqualifying disposition"), the participant recognizes ordinary income in the year of disposition in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the shares on the Purchase Date and the purchase price. Such income may be subject to tax withholding by the employer. Any additional gain or any loss recognized by the participant resulting from the disposition of the shares is a capital gain or loss. If the participant disposes of shares at least two years after the Offering Date and at least one year after the Purchase Date on which the shares are acquired, the participant recognizes ordinary income in the year of disposition in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the difference between the fair market value of the shares on the date of disposition and the purchase price or (ii) the difference between the fair market value of the shares on the Offering Date and the purchase price (determined as if the Purchase Right were exercised on the Offering Date). Any additional gain recognized by the participant on the disposition of the shares is a capital gain. If the fair market value of the shares on the date of disposition is less than the purchase price, there is no ordinary income, and the loss recognized is a capital loss. If the participant still owns the shares at the time of his or her death, the lesser of (i) the difference between the fair market value of the shares on the date of death and the purchase price or (ii) the difference between the fair market value of the shares on the Offering Date and the purchase price (determined as if the Purchase Right were exercised on the Offering Date) is recognized as ordinary income in the year of the participant's death.
If the participant disposes of the shares in a disqualifying disposition, we should be entitled to a deduction equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by the participant as a result of the disposition, except to the extent such deduction is limited by applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
Required Vote and Board of Directors Recommendation

PROPOSAL NO. 3
APPROVAL OF THE INAMED CORPORATION
2003 RESTRICTED STOCK PLAN
At the annual meeting, the stockholders will be asked to approve the Inamed Corporation 2003 Restricted Stock Plan (the "Stock Plan"). The Board adopted the Stock Plan on May 12, 2003, subject to its approval by stockholders. A full copy of the Stock Plan is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex B.
The Board believes that Inamed must offer a competitive equity incentive program if it is to continue to successfully attract and retain the best possible candidates for positions of responsibility within Inamed. The Board expects that the Stock Plan will be an important factor in attracting, retaining and rewarding the high caliber employees and directors essential to our success and in motivating these individuals to strive to enhance our growth and profitability.
By approving the Stock Plan, the stockholders will be approving, among other things, eligibility requirements for participation in the Stock Plan, the share reserve established under the Stock Plan and the other material terms of awards described below.
Summary of the Stock Plan
General. Under the Stock Plan, employees, consultants and directors of Inamed may be granted restricted stock awards.
Authorized Shares. A maximum of One Hundred Thousand (100,000) of the authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of Common Stock of Inamed may be issued under the Stock Plan. If any award expires, lapses or otherwise terminates for any reason, or if shares subject to forfeiture or repurchase are forfeited or repurchased by Inamed, any such shares that are reacquired or subject to a terminated award will again become available for issuance under the Stock Plan. Appropriate adjustments will be made to the number of shares reserved under the Stock Plan and the terms of any outstanding award in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization or similar change in our capital structure.
Administration. The Stock Plan is administered by the Board or a committee of the Board. (For purposes of this discussion, the term "Board" refers to either the Board of Directors or such committee.) Subject to the provisions of the Stock Plan, the Board will determine in its discretion the persons to whom and the times at which awards are granted, the types and sizes of awards, and all of their terms and conditions. The Board will have the authority to interpret the Stock Plan and awards granted thereunder, and any such interpretation by the Board will be binding.
Eligibility. Awards may be granted to employees, consultants and directors of Inamed or any parent or subsidiary of Inamed. As of June 1, 2003, Inamed had approximately 1,000 employees, including 6 executive officers, 50 consultants and 5 nonemployee directors who would be eligible to receive awards under the Stock Plan.
Restricted Stock. Awards of restricted stock may be granted by the Board subject to such vesting and any other restrictions (including a period during which even vested shares may not be sold (i.e., a "lock-up period") as may be determined by the Board and set forth in a written agreement between Inamed and the participant. Restricted stock may not be sold or otherwise transferred or pledged until the restrictions lapse or are terminated. Restrictions may lapse in full or in installments on the basis of the participant's continued service or other factors, such as performance criteria established by the Board, or may lapse to any extent determined solely in the Board's discretion. Participants holding restricted stock will have the right to vote the shares and to receive all dividends and other distributions, except that any dividends or other distributions paid in shares will be subject to the same restrictions as the original award. Unless otherwise provided by the Board, upon a participant's
11
termination of service, the participant will forfeit any shares of restricted stock as to which the restrictions have not lapsed.
Change in Control. The Stock Plan defines a "Change in Control" of Inamed as any of the following events upon which the stockholders of Inamed immediately before the event do not retain immediately after the event, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of shares of Inamed's voting stock immediately before the event, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of a majority of the total combined voting power of the voting securities of Inamed, its successor or the corporation to which the assets of Inamed were transferred: (i) a sale or exchange by the stockholders in a single or series of related transactions of more than 50% of Inamed's voting stock; (ii) a merger or consolidation in which Inamed is a party; (iii) the sale, exchange or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Inamed; or (iv) a liquidation or dissolution of Inamed. If a Change in Control occurs, the surviving, continuing, successor or purchasing corporation or parent corporation thereof may either assume all outstanding awards or substitute new awards having an equivalent value. However, regardless of whether the outstanding awards are assumed or replaced, all unvested or unpaid portions of the outstanding awards will become vested and payable in full immediately prior to the date of the Change in Control.
Termination or Amendment. The Stock Plan will continue in effect until the first to occur of (i) its termination by the Board or (ii) the date on which all shares available for issuance under the Stock Plan have been issued and all restrictions on such shares under the terms of the Stock Plan and the agreements evidencing awards granted under the Stock Plan have lapsed. The Board may terminate or amend the Stock Plan at any time, provided that no amendment may be made without stockholder approval if the Board deems such approval necessary for compliance with any applicable tax or securities law or other regulatory requirements, including the requirements of any stock exchange or market system on which the Common Stock of Inamed is then listed. No termination or amendment may affect any outstanding award unless expressly provided by the Board, and, in any event, may not adversely affect an outstanding award without the consent of the participant unless necessary to comply with any applicable law.
Summary of U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following summary is intended only as a general guide to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of participation in the Stock Plan and does not attempt to describe all possible federal or other tax consequences of such participation or tax consequences based on particular circumstances.
A participant acquiring restricted stock normally recognizes ordinary income equal to the difference between the amount, if any, the participant paid for the restricted stock and the fair market value of the shares on the determination date. If the participant is an employee, such ordinary income generally is subject to withholding of income and employment taxes. The participant may elect, pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, to treat the acquisition date as the determination date by filing an election with the Internal Revenue Service. Upon the sale of restricted stock, any gain or loss, based on the difference between the sale price and the fair market value of the shares on the determination date, will be taxed as capital gain or loss. Inamed generally should be entitled to a tax deduction equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by the participant as a result of the acquisition of restricted stock, except to the extent such deduction is limited by applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
Restricted Stock to Be Granted to Certain Persons
The table below sets forth the grants of restricted stock which the Board of Directors currently intends to award after stockholder approval of the Stock Plan. This table is furnished pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

PROPOSAL NO. 4
APPROVAL OF THE INAMED CORPORATION
2003 OUTSIDE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION PLAN
At the annual meeting, the stockholders will be asked to approve the Inamed Corporation 2003 Outside Director Compensation Plan (the "Directors Plan"). The Board of Directors adopted the Directors Plan on May 12, 2003, subject to its approval by stockholders. The Directors Plan is intended to replace our 1993 Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan (the "Prior Directors Plan") which will expire in December of 2003. A full copy of the Directors Plan is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex C.
The Directors Plan is intended to assist Inamed to attract and retain highly qualified individuals to serve as directors of Inamed and to provide incentives directed toward increasing the value of Inamed for its stockholders. The Board of Directors believes that approval of the Directors Plan is in the best interests of Inamed and its stockholders in order to provide a competitive equity incentive program that will enable Inamed to continue to recruit and retain the capable directors who are essential to the long-term success of Inamed.
Summary of the Directors Plan
General. The Directors Plan provides for the automatic grant of nonstatutory stock options to members of the Board of Directors who are not employees of Inamed or of any subsidiary or parent of Inamed ("Outside Directors"). It is intended to qualify as a "formula plan" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Directors Plan also permits Outside Directors to elect to defer a portion of any cash compensation to be paid to the Outside Director (the "Cash Deferral") to a bookkeeping account to be maintained by Inamed and that such deferrals will be paid in cash at a future date elected by the Outside Director.
Authorized Shares. A maximum of Two Hundred and Sixty Thousand (260,000) of the authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of our Common Stock may be issued under the Directors Plan. However, this share reserve, determined at any time, shall be reduced by the number of shares subject to outstanding options granted under the Prior Directors Plan. The number of shares underlying outstanding options under the Prior Directors Plan as of the Effective Date equal One Hundred and Ten Thousand (110,000), and consequently, we are only requesting an additional One Hundred and Fifty Thousand (150,000) shares to be authorized for issuance under the Directors Plan. Upon any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization or similar change in our capital structure, appropriate adjustments will be made to the shares subject to the Directors Plan, to the terms applicable to automatic grants of options described below, and to outstanding options. To the extent that any outstanding option under the Directors Plan, or the Prior Directors Plan, expires or terminates prior to being exercised in full, the shares of Common Stock for which such option is not exercised or the repurchased shares will be returned to the plan and again become available for grant.
Administration. The Directors Plan is intended to operate automatically without discretionary administration. To the extent administration is necessary, it will be performed by the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board. (For the purposes of this discussion, the term "Board" refers to the Board of Directors or such committee.) The Board has no discretion to select the Outside Directors who are granted options under the Directors Plan or to fix the terms of any such options. The Board is authorized to interpret the Directors Plan and options granted under it, and any such interpretation by the Board will be binding.
Eligibility. Only directors of Inamed who are Outside Directors at the time of grant are eligible to participate in the Directors Plan. Currently, Inamed has five Outside Directors, and if all of the candidates nominated for election at this meeting are elected, it will have six Outside Directors.
14
Automatic Grant of Options. Options will be granted automatically under the Directors Plan. Upon first being elected or appointed as an Outside Director, an individual will be granted an option (an "Initial Option") for Five Thousand (5,000) shares of our Common Stock on the day of his or her initial election or appointment. A director who did not previously qualify as an Outside Director and who subsequently becomes an Outside Director will not receive such an option. On the day of each anniversary of the grant of such Initial Option, each Outside Director who then remains in office will be granted an option (an "Annual Option") for Five Thousand (5,000) shares of Common Stock.
Terms and Conditions of Options. Each option granted under the Directors Plan will be evidenced by a written agreement specifying the number of shares subject to the option and the other terms and conditions of the option, consistent with the provisions of the Directors Plan. The per-share exercise price under each option will be equal to the fair market value of a share of our Common Stock on the date of grant. Generally, the fair market value of the Common Stock is the closing price per share on the date of grant as reported on the Nasdaq National Market. The closing price of our Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market on May 27, 2003 was $47.98 per share. The exercise price may be paid in cash, by check, by surrender of previously acquired shares of Common Stock having a fair market value not less than the exercise price, to the extent legally permitted, or by assignment of the proceeds of a sale with respect to some or all of the shares acquired upon the exercise.
Initial Options and Annual Options will vest and become exercisable in full on the first anniversary of the date of grant, subject in each case to the Outside Director's continuous service on our Board of Directors. Unless earlier terminated under the terms of the Directors Plan or the option agreement, each option will remain exercisable for seven (7) years after grant. An option may generally only be exercised by the optionee during his or her lifetime and, unless otherwise provided by the Board, may not be transferred or assigned, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
Cash Deferrals. Outside Directors may elect to defer for federal and state income tax purposes director fees that would otherwise be paid currently in cash to the Outside Director. These Cash Deferrals are credited to a bookkeeping account maintained in the general assets of Inamed and will earn interest at a monthly rate equal to the prime interest rate for such month increased by an additional one percent (1%) until such time as the amounts are distributed. The Cash Deferrals will be distributed upon the first to occur of the Outside Director's termination of service to Inamed or the date selected by the Outside Director in an election form filed with Inamed.
Deferral of Stock Options. The Directors Plan permits an Outside Director to make an election, prior to exercising any stock option, to defer the gain recognized upon the exercise of the option into a bookkeeping account maintained by Inamed to be settled in the form of Common Stock at a later date. The Outside Director must pay the exercise price for such options by tendering shares of Inamed stock equal to the exercise price which the Outside Director has owned for at least six (6) months prior to the date of the option exercise. The bookkeeping account maintained by the Company will reflect the number of deferred shares for which the Outside Director has exercised and distribution of such shares to the Outside Director will occur on the earlier of the Outside Director's termination of service to Inamed or the date selected by the Outside Director in an election form filed with Inamed.
Change in Control. The Directors Plan defines a "Change in Control" of Inamed as any of the following events upon which the stockholders of Inamed immediately before the event do not retain immediately after the event, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of shares of Inamed's voting stock immediately before the event, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of a majority of the total combined voting power of the voting securities of Inamed, its successor or the corporation to which the assets of Inamed were transferred: (i) a sale or exchange by the stockholders in a single or series of related transactions of more than 50% of Inamed's voting stock; (ii) a merger or consolidation in which Inamed is a party; (iii) the sale, exchange or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Inamed; or (iv) a liquidation or dissolution of Inamed. If a Change in Control occurs,
15
then all options outstanding under the Directors Plan will become immediately exercisable and vested in full as of the date ten (10) days prior to the Change in Control. In addition, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or parent corporation thereof may either assume or substitute new options for the options outstanding under the Directors Plan. To the extent that the options outstanding under the Directors Plan are not assumed, replaced or exercised prior to the Change in Control, they will terminate. In addition, if a Change in Control occurs, then all amounts then credited to a bookkeeping account maintained by Inamed to reflect the Cash Deferrals shall be distributed to the Outside Director in a single lump sum cash distribution effective as of the date ten (10) days prior to the date of the Change in Control.
Termination or Amendment. Unless earlier terminated by the Board, the Directors Plan will terminate when all of the shares available for issuance under the Directors Plan have been issued. The Directors Plan may be terminated or amended by the Board at any time, except that any amendment will be subject to stockholder approval if it would increase the total number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance thereunder or would expand the class of persons eligible to receive options. No termination or amendment of the Directors Plan may adversely affect an outstanding option without the consent of the optionee.
Summary of U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
Stock Options. Options granted under the Directors Plan will be nonstatutory stock options having no special tax status. An optionee will generally recognize no taxable income as the result of the grant of such an option. Upon exercise of a nonstatutory stock option, the optionee will normally recognize ordinary income in the amount of the difference between the option exercise price and the fair market value of the shares on the date when the option is exercised or such later date as the shares vest (the later of such dates being referred to as the "determination date"). Upon the sale of stock acquired by the exercise of a nonstatutory stock option, any gain or loss, based on the difference between the sale price and the fair market value on the determination date, will be taxed as capital gain or loss. Inamed generally should be entitled to a tax deduction equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by the optionee as a result of the exercise of a nonstatutory stock option, except to the extent such deduction is limited by applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
Cash Deferrals. Any Outside Director which elects to defer a portion of such Outside Director's cash director fees in accordance with the terms of the Directors Plan will not recognize such deferred amounts as taxable income until such time as the amounts deferred (including any interest earned thereon) are distributed to the Outside Director in accordance with the terms of the Directors Plan and/or the Outside Director's election.
Options to Be Granted to Certain Persons
The table below sets forth the grants of stock options that will be received under the Directors Plan during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2003 by the Outside Directors listed in the table. This table is furnished pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Only nonemployee directors are eligible to participate in the Directors Plan.

- The assumed 5% and 10% annual rates of appreciation over the term of the options are set forth in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules and regulations and do not represent the Company's estimates of stock price appreciation. The potential realizable value is calculated by assuming that the stock price on the date of grant appreciates at the indicated rate, compounded annually, for the entire term of the option and that the option is exercised and the stock is sold on the last day of its term at this appreciated stock price. No valuation method can accurately predict future stock prices or option values because there are too many unknown factors. No gain to the optionee is possible unless the stock price increases over the option term. Such a gain in stock price would benefit all stockholders.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT
The Compensation Committee determines all aspects of compensation arrangements for the executive officers of the Company, approves recommendations as to compensation for certain of the Company's other senior employees and administers the Company's employee stock option and stock purchase plans and the Company's senior management bonus plan. All of the members of the
27
Compensation Committee are outside directors as defined by Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Compensation Policies and Goals
The Company's goal is to retain, motivate and reward management of the Company through its compensation policies and awards, while aligning management's interests more closely with those of the Company and its stockholders. Indeed, the Company believes that executive compensation should be closely related to the value delivered to stockholders. As a result, the Company has sought to develop incentive pay programs that provide competitive compensation and reflect Company performance. Both short-term and long-term incentive compensation are based on Company performance and the value received and to be received by stockholders.
The Company strives to provide a total compensation package that is competitive with opportunities for similarly-situated executives at comparable companies, without becoming a price leader. In order to monitor competitive conditions, the Company and the Compensation Committee utilize publicly available executive compensation reports for medical device companies, as well as regional executive compensation statistics and trends. From time to time, the Compensation Committee commissions studies by independent compensation firms.
Compensation Make-Up and Measurement
At present, the Company's executive compensation program consists of three components: base salary, short-term incentives and long-term incentives, each of which is intended to serve the Company's overall compensation philosophy.
Base Salary. The Company's salary levels are intended to be consistent with competitive pay practices and level of responsibility, with salary increases reflecting competitive trends, the overall financial performance of the Company and general economic conditions as well as a number of factors relating to the particular individual, including the performance of the individual executive, level of experience, ability and knowledge of the job.
Short-Term Incentives. In 2002, the Board of Directors adopted a system that tied bonuses to a specific minimum earnings target which were met.
Long-Term Incentives. Stock options are granted from time to time to reward key employees for their contributions. The grant of options is based primarily on the key employee's potential contribution to the Company's growth and profitability. During 2002, option grants were made primarily to new executives. The size and other terms and conditions of grants were based primarily on the Compensation Committee's assessment of competitive conditions for executives with similar skills and experience at comparable companies. Grants made to continuing executives were based on the individual's contribution and the level of responsibility, experience and ability, as well as competitive conditions.
Compensation of Chief Executive Officer
The Board of Directors elected Mr. Teti to be Chief Executive Officer on August 1, 2001. Mr. Teti was elected Chairman of the Board of Directors on July 23, 2002. The Company entered into a three-year employment agreement with Mr. Teti in order to assure his long-term commitment to the Company. The base compensation level in the employment agreement, and other terms, were determined based upon the anticipated responsibilities to be performed by Mr. Teti, his expected performance in managing and directing the Company's operations, and his efforts in assisting the Company to improve its capital base.
28
Mr. Teti's compensation, including his base salary, bonus and stock option grant, was determined within the same framework established for all executive officers of the Company. Mr. Teti's base salary was $400,000 and his bonus award for 2002 was $300,000. The amount of Mr. Teti's bonus award was determined based upon a review of his performance during the past fiscal year in managing and directing the Company's operations, growing and progressing the Company's product development pipeline, and assisting the Company to improve its capital base.
On August 1, 2001, Mr. Teti was granted an option to purchase 300,000 shares of Common Stock. The exercise price of the stock option was set at fair market value on the grant date. Subject to the terms applicable to his grant, one-third of the stock option became exercisable on August 2, 2002. The option expires five years from the grant date.
Policy With Respect To Qualifying Compensation for Deductibility
The Company's ability to deduct compensation paid to individual covered officers is generally limited by Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to $1 million annually. However, performance-based compensation that has been approved by stockholders is excluded from the $1 million limit, if, among other requirements, the compensation is payable only upon attainment of pre-established, objective performance goals and the Board committee that establishes such goals consists only of "outside directors."
While the tax impact of any compensation arrangement is a significant factor to be considered, any such impact is evaluated in light of the Compensation Committee's overall compensation philosophy and objectives. The Compensation Committee will consider ways to maximize the deductibility of executive compensation, while retaining the discretion the Compensation Committee deems necessary to compensate officers in a manner commensurate with performance and the competitive environment for executive talent. As a result, from time to time the Compensation Committee may award compensation that is not fully deductible if the Compensation Committee determines that an award is consistent with it philosophy and is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
After an analysis of competitive practices and a thorough review of the alternatives, the Committee determined that it was appropriate to grant options to Mr. Teti and Hani Zeini that were not subject to the 2000 Option Plan. At the time, the 2000 Option Plan did not include sufficient shares to cover these option grants. The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors determined that it was in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to grant such options in order to attract and retain Mr. Teti and Mr. Zeini. However, because these options were not granted pursuant to a plan approved by the Company's stockholders, the compensation derived from these options will not be considered "performance-based" for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Committee held meetings with KPMG during 2002 in regards to their audit of the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002. In addition, meetings were held each quarter to review quarterly financial reports prior to their issue and with respect to the first quarter of 2002, meetings were held with Arthur Andersen, our former auditors.
In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board has approved, that the audited statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2002 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Committee also recommended the reappointment of KPMG, L.L.P. as the Company's independent auditors for the year ending December 31, 2003 to the Company's Board.

INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Arthur Andersen LLP was previously the principal accountants for Inamed Corporation. On July 19, 2002, that firm's appointment as principal accountants was terminated and KPMG LLP was engaged as principal accountants. The decision to change accountants was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
In connection with the audits of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2001, and the subsequent interim period through July 19, 2002, there were no disagreements with Arthur Andersen LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their report for such years; and there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304 (a) (1) (v) of Regulation S-K.
The audit reports of Arthur Andersen LLP on the consolidated financial statements of Inamed Corporation and subsidiaries as of and for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, did not contain any adverse opinions, disclaimer of opinions, nor were they qualified or modified as to the uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
The Company has provided Arthur Andersen LLP with a copy of the Form 8-K filed on July 23, 2002 and has requested Arthur Andersen LLP to furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements in the Form 8-K. The Company has attempted to contact Arthur Andersen's offices in order to ascertain whether the firm will supply this letter. After reasonable efforts, the Company was unable to obtain the letter from Arthur Andersen and the Company has therefore omitted the letter from the Form 8-K/A pursuant to Item 304T (b)(2) of Regulation S-K.
During the two years ended December 31, 2001 and through July 19, 2002, the Company did not consult KPMG LLP with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the audit opinion that might be rendered on Inamed's consolidated financial statements, or any other matters or reportable events listed in Items 304 (a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
Fees Paid to Independent Auditors
As part of its duties, the Audit Committee also considered whether the provision of services other than audit services during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2002 by KPMG LLP, the Company's independent public accountants for that period, is compatible with maintaining the accountants' independence. Fees for all services provided our independent public accountants for fiscal year 2002 are as follows:
Audit Fees. The total aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by KPMG LLP for the audit of the Company's annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 and for review of the financial statements included in the Company's Forms 10-Q for such year were $750,000.
The total aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by Arthur Andersen for the review of the Company's financial statements included in the Company's Forms 10-Q for such year were $20,000.
Financial Information Systems Design and Implementation Fees. There were no fees for professional services rendered by KPMG LLP as described in paragraph (c) (4) (ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.
31
All Other Fees. The total aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by KPMG for services not included under the heading "Audit Fees" or "Financial Information Systems Design and Implementation Fees" for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 were $13,000. There were no other fees billed for professional services rendered by KPMG for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.
The Audit Committee approves all other professional services only if such services would not impair KPMG LLP's independence in fact or appearance. As a result of this process, KPMG LLP performs other professional services only in limited circumstances.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Mr. Teti received a loan from the Company in connection with his relocation to the Company's headquarters in Santa Barbara, California. As of December 31, 2002, $200,000 was outstanding. The loan from the Company bears interest at the minimum rate necessary to avoid imputed income under the Internal Revenue Code. Repayment of the principal of the loan will be made in one-third installments no later than February 28 of each of 2003, 2004 and 2005, with all accrued interest due and payable on February 28, 2005. The first installment payment has been made.
In 2002, Inamed paid $700,000 to a marketing consulting firm, whose Chief Executive Officer, President and Board member is the son-in-law of Malcolm Currie. Management believes that the terms entered into are at arms-length and that such terms are comparable to those with third parties.
OTHER MATTERS
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of the Company's common stock to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Such persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed by such person.
To the Company's knowledge and based solely on our review of such reports furnished to the Company and written representations from certain reporting persons, the Company believes that all filing requirements applicable to its executive officers, directors and greater-than-10% stockholders were complied with, except that Malcolm Currie filed two late reports with respect to an aggregate of two transactions and Richard Babbitt filed two late reports with respect to an aggregate of six transactions.
Stockholder Proposals
Pursuant to the General Rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, proposals of stockholders intended to be presented at the 2003 Annual Meeting pursuant to SEC Rule 14a-8 must be received by the Secretary of the Company on or before the date occurring 120 calendar days before the first anniversary of the date of this proxy statment to be considered for inclusion in the proxy materials for that meeting. In addition, the By-laws of the Company contain requirements relating to the timing and content of the notice which stockholders must provide to the Secretary of the Company for any matter or any director nomination to be properly presented at a stockholders meeting. Specifically, proposals of stockholders or director nominations intended to presented at the 2004 Annual Meeting must be received by the Secretary of the Company no earlier than March 13, 2004 and no later than April 12, 2004. While the Board will consider stockholder proposals, the Company reserves the right to omit from the Company's proxy statement stockholder proposals that it is not required to include under the Exchange Act, including Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act.
Annual Report
The Company has sent, or is concurrently sending, all of its stockholders of record as of May 30, 2003 a true copy of its Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. Such report contains the Company's certified consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

8. Change in Control.
8.1 Definitions.
(a) An"Ownership Change Event" shall be deemed to have occurred if any of the following occurs with respect to the Company: (i) the direct or indirect sale or exchange in a single or series of related transactions by the stockholders of the Company of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Company; (ii) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is a party; (iii) the sale, exchange, or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iv) a liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
(b) A"Change in Control" shall mean an Ownership Change Event or a series of related Ownership Change Events (collectively, a"Transaction") wherein the stockholders of the Company immediately before the Transaction do not retain immediately after the Transaction, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of shares of the Company's voting stock immediately before the Transaction, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the outstanding voting stock of the Company or the corporation or corporations to which the assets of the Company were transferred (the"Transferee Corporation(s)"), as the case may be. For purposes of the preceding sentence, indirect beneficial ownership shall include, without limitation, an interest resulting from ownership of the voting stock of one or more corporations which, as a result of the Transaction, own the Company or the Transferee Corporation(s), as the case may be, either directly or through one or more subsidiary corporations.

9. Compliance with Securities Law.
The grant of Awards and the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to any Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state and foreign law with respect to such securities and the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, no Award may be exercised or shares issued pursuant to an Award unless (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act shall at the time of such exercise or issuance be in effect with respect to the shares issuable pursuant to the Award or (b) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable pursuant to the Award may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company's legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares hereunder shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to issuance of any Stock,
B-6
the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
10. Tax Withholding.
The Company shall have the right to require the Participant, through payroll withholding, cash payment or otherwise, to make adequate provision for the federal, state, local and foreign taxes, if any, required by law to be withheld by the Company with respect to an Award or the shares acquired pursuant thereto. The Company shall have no obligation to deliver shares of Stock, to release shares of Stock from an escrow established pursuant to an Award Agreement, or to make any payment in cash under the Plan until the Company tax withholding obligations have been satisfied by the Participant.
11. Termination or Amendment of Plan.
The Board may terminate or amend the Plan at any time. However, without the approval of the Company's stockholders if such approval is required under applicable law or by regulation of any securities exchange upon which the Stock is listed, there shall be (a) no increase in the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan (except by operation of the provisions of Section 4.2) and (b) no material change in the class of persons eligible to receive Awards. No termination or amendment of the Plan shall affect any then outstanding Award unless expressly provided by the Board. In any event, no termination or amendment of the Plan may adversely affect any then outstanding Award without the consent of the Participant.
12. Lock-Up Agreement.
The grant of Awards and the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to any Award is contingent on the shares underlying such Award being subject to a lock-up agreement (the "Lock-Up Agreement") whereby the Participant agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Company, the Participant will not, during the period commencing on the date all Vesting Conditions lapse and ending on the fifth anniversary of the date of such Vesting Conditions lapse (the "Lock-Up Period"), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Stock acquired under any Award or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for any shares of Stock acquired under any Award (whether such shares or any such securities are now owned by the undersigned or are hereafter acquired) (collectively, the "Securities"), or enter into a transaction which would have the same effect; (2) publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge or disposition; or (3) enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement or transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1), (2) or (3) above is to be settled by delivery of Stock or securities, in cash or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement may be waived by the Board in its sole discretion at any time, and shall also be waived automatically upon the occurrence of any Ownership Change Event as defined in Section 8.1. Upon request by the Company, each Participant shall execute any agreement evidencing such Lock-Up Agreement prior to the receipt of shares of Stock hereunder and shall promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares of Stock acquired hereunder for the placement on such certificates of appropriate legends evidencing any such transfer restrictions. The Participant authorizes the Company to cause the Company's transfer agent to decline to transfer and/or to note stop transfer restrictions on the transfer books and records of the Company with respect to any Securities for which the undersigned is the record holder and, in the case of any such shares or securities for which the undersigned is the beneficial but not the record holder, agrees
B-7
to cause the record holder to cause the transfer agent to decline to transfer and/or to note stop transfer restrictions on such books and records with respect to such shares or securities.
13. Miscellaneous Provisions.
13.1 Provision of Information. Each Participant shall be given access to information concerning the Company equivalent to that information generally made available to the Company's common stockholders.
13.2 Rights as Employee, Consultant or Director. No person, even though eligible pursuant to Section 5, shall have a right to be selected as a Participant, or, having been so selected, to be selected again as a Participant. Nothing in the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan shall confer on any Participant a right to remain an Employee, Consultant or Director, or interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate the Participant's Service at any time.
13.3 Rights as a Stockholder. A Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by an Award until the date of the issuance of a certificate for such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 4.2 or another provision of the Plan.
13.4 Beneficiary Designation. Each Participant may file with the Company a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any benefit under the Plan to which the Participant is entitled in the event of such Participant's death before he or she receives any or all of such benefit. Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the Company, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the Participant's lifetime. If a married Participant designates a beneficiary other than the Participant's spouse, the effectiveness of such designation shall be subject to the consent of the Participant's spouse.

A person so declining an Option shall receive no payment or other consideration in lieu of such declined Option. A person who has declined an Option may revoke such election by delivering written notice of such revocation to the Board no later than the day prior to the date such Option would be granted pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or (b), as the case may be.
(d) Limitation on Automatic Grants. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Option will be granted to an Outside Director who, on the date of grant of such Option, beneficially owns (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) five percent (5%) or more of the Stock of the Company.
6.2 Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Stock subject to an Annual Option or an Initial Option shall be the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of grant.
6.3 Exercisability and Term of Options. Each Option shall vest and become exercisable as set forth below and shall terminate and cease to be exercisable on the seventh (7th) anniversary of the date of grant of the Option, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of Section 6.5 or the Award Agreement evidencing such Option.
(a) Initial Options. Except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement evidencing such Option, each Initial Option shall vest and become exercisable in full on the first anniversary of the date of grant of the Initial Option, provided that the Participant's Service has not terminated prior to the relevant date.
(b) Annual Options. Except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement evidencing such Option, each Annual Option shall vest and become exercisable in full on the first anniversary of the date of grant of the Annual Option, provided that the Participant's Service has not terminated prior to the relevant date.
6.4 Payment of Exercise Price.
(a) Forms of Consideration Authorized. Except as otherwise provided below, payment of the exercise price for the number of shares of Stock being purchased pursuant to any Option shall be made (i) in cash, by check or cash equivalent, (ii) by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of shares of Stock owned by the Participant having a Fair Market Value not less than the exercise price, (iii) by delivery of a properly executed notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker providing for the assignment to the Company of the proceeds of a sale with respect to some or all of the shares being acquired upon the exercise of the Option (including, without limitation, through an exercise complying with the provisions of Regulation T as promulgated from time to time by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) (a"Cashless Exercise"), or (iv) by any combination thereof.
(b) Limitations on Forms of Consideration.
(i) Tender of Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of shares of Stock to the extent such tender or attestation would constitute a violation of the provisions of any law, regulation or
C-5
agreement restricting the redemption of the Company's stock. Unless otherwise provided by the Board, an Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of shares of Stock unless such shares either have been owned by the Participant for more than six (6) months or were not acquired, directly or indirectly, from the Company.
(ii) Cashless Exercise. The Company reserves, at any and all times, the right, in the Company's sole and absolute discretion, to establish, decline to approve or terminate any program or procedures for the exercise of Options by means of a Cashless Exercise.
6.5 Effect of Termination of Service.
(a) Option Exercisability. Subject to earlier termination of the Option as otherwise provided herein, an Option shall be exercisable after a Participant's termination of Service only during the applicable time period determined in accordance with this Section 6.5 and thereafter shall terminate:
(i) Disability. If the Participant's Service with the Company terminates because of the Disability of the Participant, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the Participant's Service terminated, may be exercised by the Participant (or the Participant's guardian or legal representative) at any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after the date on which the Participant's Service terminated, but in any event no later than the date of expiration of the Option's term as set forth in the Award Agreement evidencing such Option (the"Option Expiration Date").
(ii) Death. If the Participant's Service with the Company terminates because of the death of the Participant, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the Participant's Service terminated, may be exercised by the Participant's legal representative or other person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by reason of the Participant's death at any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after the date on which the Participant's Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date. The Participant's Service shall be deemed to have terminated on account of death if the Participant dies within three (3) months after the Participant's termination of Service.
(iii) Other Termination of Service. If the Participant's Service with the Company terminates for any reason, except Disability or death, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable by the Participant on the date on which the Participant's Service terminated, may be exercised by the Participant at any time prior to the expiration of six (6) months after the date on which the Participant's Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.
(b) Extension if Exercise Prevented by Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the exercise of an Option within the applicable time periods set forth in Section 6.5(a) is prevented by the provisions of Section 10 below, the Option shall remain exercisable until the date three (3) months after the date the Participant is notified by the Company that the Option is exercisable, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.
(c) Extension if Participant Subject to Section 16(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a sale within the applicable time periods set forth in Section 6.5(a) of shares acquired upon the exercise of the Option would subject the Participant to suit under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Option shall remain exercisable until the earliest to occur of (i) the tenth (10th) day following the date on which a sale of such shares by the Participant would no longer be subject to such suit, (ii) the one hundred and ninetieth (190th) day after the Participant's termination of Service, or (iii) the Option Expiration Date.
C-6
6.6 Transferability of Options. During the lifetime of the Participant, an Option shall be exercisable only by the Participant or the Participant's guardian or legal representative. No Option shall be assignable or transferable by the Participant, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted by the Board, in its discretion, and set forth in the Award Agreement evidencing such Option, an Option shall be assignable or transferable subject to the applicable limitations, if any, described in the General Instructions to Form S-8 Registration Statement under the Securities Act.
6.7 Deferral of Option Proceeds.
(a) Any Outside Director who has been granted an Option under the Plan may make an irrevocable election to defer the receipt of any proceeds from the exercise of such Option (the "Option Proceeds") into an Option Proceeds account. The Company shall establish an Option Proceeds account on its books in the name of each such Participant.
(b) An election to defer Option Proceeds communicated to the Company shall be made no later than six (6) months prior to the date on which such Option is first to be exercised. An election to defer Option Proceeds may be made with respect to all or a portion of the shares covered by an Option. Such an election may only be made once with respect to any Option and shall be irrevocable once made. In addition, such an election shall also include those provisions regarding length of deferral as specified in Section 7.2(c) and shall be in a form approved by the Company. Option Proceeds deferred under the Plan shall be allocated to the Participant's Option Proceeds account in a number of Stock Units equal to the number of shares of Stock that otherwise would have been delivered to such Participant, net of any taxes required to withheld by the Company at the time of exercise of the Option.
(c) To qualify for the deferral of Option Proceeds, the Participant must pay the full exercise price with respect to an Option by delivery of shares of Stock already owned by such Participant for at least six (6) months, or attestation to the ownership of such shares (which may include shares received as a result of prior exercise of an Option) having a Fair Market Value (determined as of the date such Option is exercised) equal to all or part of the aggregate exercise price of such Option.
(d) The Stock Units credited to a Participant's Option Proceeds account in accordance with this Section 6.7 shall thereafter be treated as provided in Sections 7.7(b) through 7.7(d) and Section 9.4.
7. Director Fee Deferrals.
Any Outside Director of the Company receiving Director Fees for services performed as an Outside Director may elect to have all or part of such Director Fees otherwise payable to the Outside Director deferred and paid at the time and in the manner prescribed in this Section 7.
7.1 Effective Date and Duration of this Section. This Section 7 shall become effective commencing with the first calendar quarter beginning after the Effective Date and shall continue in effect for the remainder of the calendar year of the Effective Date (the "Initial Plan Year") and each subsequent calendar year commencing during the term (as provided in Section 1.3) of the Plan (a"Plan Year"). Notwithstanding any Participant's prior election pursuant to Section 7.2, no Director Fee Award shall be granted to such Participant after termination of the Plan, and all Director Fees with respect to which Director Fee Awards have not been granted prior to termination of the Plan shall thereafter be paid in cash in accordance with the Company's normal Director Fee payment procedures. However, subject to compliance with applicable law as provided in Section 10, all Director Fee Awards granted prior to termination of the Plan shall continue to be governed by and may be exercised or settled in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Award Agreement evidencing such Director Fee Award.
C-7
(a) Director Fee Award Elections. Each Outside Director may elect to receive Director Fee Awards in lieu of payment in cash of all or any portion not less than twenty-five percent (25%) of such Outside Director's Director Fees during the Initial Plan Year and each subsequent Plan Year (or the portion of such Plan Year following an individual's initial appointment or election as an Outside Director). For the Initial Plan Year and each subsequent Plan Year or applicable portion thereof, a Participant shall be entitled to elect that a specified portion of the Participant's Director Fees elected by the Participant shall be paid in the form of Deferred Cash Award in accordance with Section 7.4, and the balance will be paid in cash in accordance with the Company's normal Director Fee payment procedures.
7.2 Time and Manner of Election.
(a) Time of Election. Each Outside Director making an election pursuant to Section 7.2 shall make such election:
(i) for the Initial Plan Year, prior to the earlier of (1) the date thirty (30) days following the Effective Date or (2) the commencement of the first calendar quarter beginning after the Effective Date;
(ii) for each subsequent Plan Year, prior to the first day of such Plan Year; and
(iii) in the case of a newly appointed or elected Outside Director, on the date of such appointment or election for the remainder of the Initial Plan Year or subsequent Plan Year of appointment or election, as the case may be.
(b) Deferred Cash Award Election. In addition to the requirements of Section 7.3(a), an election to defer a specific dollar amount or percentage of Director Fees shall also provide (i) the date such Deferred Cash Award credited to the Deferral Account for such year shall be distributed or commence being distributed (which date shall be at least twelve months after the end of the Plan Year for which such deferrals were made) and (ii) the form of distribution that shall apply to the amount credited to the Deferral Account for such year.
(c) Election Irrevocable. A Participant's elections pursuant to Section 7.2 shall become irrevocable as of the commencement of the Plan Year or portion thereof to which it applies.
(d) Failure to Timely Elect. Any Outside Director who fails to make an election in accordance with this Section for any Plan Year (or the Initial Plan Year, as the case may be) shall be deemed to have elected to receive all of such individual's Director Fees in cash in accordance with the Company's normal Director Fee payment procedures.
(e) Manner of Election. Each election in accordance with this Section shall be made on a form prescribed by the Company for this purpose and shall be delivered to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
7.3 Automatic Grant of Director Fee Awards. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.1 and this Section 7, effective as of the last day of each quarter during any Plan Year (or the Initial Plan Year, as the case may be), each Participant shall be granted automatically and without further action of the Board a Director Fee Award in lieu of that portion, if any (the"Elected Quarterly Fees"), of the Director Fees earned by the Participant during such quarter and specified by the Participant's election under Section 7.2 for such Plan Year (or Initial Plan Year). In accordance with the Participant's election under Section 7.2 for the Plan Year (or Initial Plan Year), the Director Fee Award shall be in the form of a Deferred Cash Award pursuant to Section 7.4.
7.4 Deferred Cash Award. For each Plan Year the Company shall establish and maintain on its books a Deferral Account for each Outside Director who elects to defer a specific dollar amount or percentage of his or her Director Fees for such year pursuant to such Outside Directors election. Each such Deferral Account shall be designated by the name of the Participant for whom established and the
C-8
Plan Year to which it relates, and shall be credited with the amount of any Director Fees otherwise payable by the Company to a Participant during a Plan Year that such Participant has elected to defer pursuant to this Section 7 for such year on the date such amount would otherwise have been paid by the Company to such Participant.
(a) Deferral Account Adjustments. On the last day of each month, the amount credited to each Deferral Account maintained for a Participant shall be credited with an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying one-twelfth (1/12) of the Applicable Percentage by the amount then credited to such Deferral Account.
(b) Deferral Account Payments. The amount credited to a Deferral Account maintained for a Participant (i) shall become distributable to such Participant on the first to occur of (1) the date specified by such Participant in his or her election filed with the Company for such Deferral Account (which date shall be at least twelve months after the end of the Plan Year for which such deferrals were made), or (2) the date such Participant ceases to provide Service to the Company, and (ii) shall be distributed to such Participant either in a single lump distribution or in approximately equal annual installments over a period of up to five (5) years, such form of distribution to be made in accordance with such Participant's election filed with the Company for such Deferral Account. When an amount credited to a Participant's Deferral Account becomes distributable, such amount shall be paid by the Company to such Participant in cash as soon as administratively feasible after the selected lump sum distribution date or installment distribution dates and charged against such Deferral Account. If the amount credited to a Deferral Account is paid in installments over a period of years, the provisions of Section 7.5(c) shall continue to apply to the amount credited to such Deferral Account until completely distributed.
(c) Death of Participant. Upon the death of a Participant, the dollar amount credited to each Deferral Account maintained for such Participant shall be distributed by the Company in a single lump sum distribution to the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by such Participant. Such designation of beneficiary shall be made in writing on a form prescribed by and filed with the Company, and shall remain in effect until changed by such Participant by the filing of a new beneficiary designation form with the Company. If a Participant fails to so designate a beneficiary, or in the event all of the designated individuals are individuals who predecease the Participant, any remaining amounts payable under the Plan shall be paid to such Participant's estate. All distributions under this Section 7.5(c) shall be made as soon as administratively feasible following a Participant's death.
7.5 Effect of Termination of Service. Notwithstanding any Participant's prior election pursuant to Section 7.2, no Director Fee Award shall be granted to such Participant after termination of such Participant's Service as an Outside Director, and all Director Fees with respect to which Director Fee Awards have not been granted prior to termination of such Participant's Service as an Outside Director shall thereafter be paid in cash in accordance with the Company's normal Director Fee payment procedures. However, subject to compliance with applicable law as provided in Section 10, all Director Fee Awards granted prior to termination of a Participant's Service shall continue to be governed by and may be exercised or settled in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Award Agreement evidencing such Director Fee Award.
8. Standard Forms of Award Agreement.
8.1 Award Agreement. Each Award shall comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the appropriate form of Award Agreement approved by the Board concurrently with its adoption of the Plan and as amended from time to time. Any Award Agreement may consist of an appropriate form of Notice of Grant and a form of Agreement incorporated therein by reference, or such other form or forms as the Board may approve from time to time.
C-9
8.2 Authority to Vary Terms. The Board shall have the authority from time to time to vary the terms of any standard form of Award Agreement either in connection with the grant or amendment of an individual Award or in connection with the authorization of a new standard form or forms; provided, however, that the terms and conditions of any such new, revised or amended standard form or forms of Award Agreement are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan.
9. Change in Control.
9.1 Definitions.
(a) An"Ownership Change Event" shall be deemed to have occurred if any of the following occurs with respect to the Company: (i) the direct or indirect sale or exchange in a single or series of related transactions by the stockholders of the Company of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Company; (ii) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is a party; (iii) the sale, exchange, or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iv) a liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
(b) A"Change in Control" shall mean an Ownership Change Event or a series of related Ownership Change Events (collectively, a"Transaction") wherein the stockholders of the Company immediately before the Transaction do not retain immediately after the Transaction, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of shares of the Company's voting stock immediately before the Transaction, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the outstanding voting stock of the Company or the corporation or corporations to which the assets of the Company were transferred (the"Transferee Corporation(s)"), as the case may be. For purposes of the preceding sentence, indirect beneficial ownership shall include, without limitation, an interest resulting from ownership of the voting stock of one or more corporations which, as a result of the Transaction, own the Company or the Transferee Corporation(s), as the case may be, either directly or through one or more subsidiary corporations. The Board shall have the right to determine whether multiple sales or exchanges of the voting stock of the Company or multiple Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.
9.2 Effect of Change in Control on Deferred Cash Awards. In the event of a Change in Control, the dollar amount credited to each Deferral Account maintained under the Plan shall be immediately distributed by the Company in a single lump sum distribution to the Participant effective as of the date ten (10) days prior to the date of the Change in Control. The distribution of any Deferred Cash Awards that was permissible solely by reason of this Section 9.2 shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the Change in Control.
9.3 Effect of Change in Control on Options. In the event of a Change in Control, any unexercisable or unvested portions of outstanding Options and any shares acquired upon the exercise thereof held by Participants whose Service has not terminated prior to such date shall be immediately exercisable and vested in full as of the date ten (10) days prior to the date of the Change in Control. The exercise or vesting of any Option and any shares acquired upon the exercise thereof that was permissible solely by reason of this Section 9.3 shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the Change in Control. In addition, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or parent corporation thereof, as the case may be (the"Acquiring Corporation"), may either assume the Company's rights and obligations under outstanding Options or substitute for outstanding Options substantially equivalent options for the Acquiring Corporation's stock. Any Options which are neither assumed or substituted for by the Acquiring Corporation in connection with the Change in Control nor exercised as of the date of the Change in Control shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the date of the Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the corporation the stock of which is subject to the outstanding Options immediately prior to an Ownership Change Event described
C-10
in Section 9.1(a)(i) constituting a Change in Control is the surviving or continuing corporation and immediately after such Ownership Change Event less than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of its voting stock is held by another corporation or by other corporations that are members of an affiliated group within the meaning of Section 1504(a) of the Code without regard to the provisions of Section 1504(b) of the Code, the outstanding Options shall not terminate.
9.4 Effect of Change in Control on Unpaid Director Fees. In the event of a Change in Control, any Director Fees with respect to which the Company has not granted either a Deferred Cash Award, a Director Fee Option or a Stock Units Award pursuant to Section 7 prior to the effective date of the Change in Control shall be paid in cash immediately prior to such effective date.
10. Compliance with Securities Law.
The grant of Awards and the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to any Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state and foreign law with respect to such securities and the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, no Option may be exercised unless (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (b) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company's legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares hereunder shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the issuance of any Stock, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
11. Termination or Amendment of Plan.
The Board may terminate or amend the Plan at any time. However, subject to changes in applicable law, regulations or rules that would permit otherwise, and provided the Company Stock is not then listed on the Nasdaq National Market or the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, or such other national or regional securities exchange or market system which may require stockholder approval, without the approval of the Company's stockholders, there shall be (a) no increase in the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan (except by operation of the provisions of Section 4.1 or Section 4.2) and (b) no other amendment of the Plan that would require approval of the Company's stockholders under any applicable law, regulation or rule. No termination or amendment of the Plan shall affect any then outstanding Award unless expressly provided by the Board. In any event, no termination or amendment of the Plan may adversely affect any then outstanding Award without the consent of the Participant, unless such termination or amendment is necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation or rule.
12. Stockholder Approval.
THE PLAN OR ANY INCREASE IN THE MAXIMUM AGGREGATE NUMBER OF SHARES OF STOCK ISSUABLE THEREUNDER AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 4.1 (THE"AUTHORIZED SHARES") SHALL BE APPROVED BY THE STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY PRIOR TO THE GRANT OF ANY AWARD.
C-11
13. Miscellaneous Provisions.
13.1 Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deduct from the shares of Stock issuable pursuant to an Award, or to accept from the Participant the tender of, a number of whole shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value, as determined by the Company, equal to all or any part of the federal, state, local and foreign taxes, if any, required by law to be withheld by the Company with respect to such Award. Alternatively or in addition, in its discretion, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant, through payroll withholding, cash payment or otherwise, including by means of a Cashless Exercise, to make adequate provision for any such tax withholding obligations of the Company arising in connection with any Award. The Fair Market Value of any shares of Stock withheld or tendered to satisfy any such tax withholding obligations shall not exceed the amount determined by the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates. The Company shall have no obligation to deliver shares of Stock until the Company's tax withholding obligations have been satisfied by the Participant.
13.2 Provision of Information. Each Participant shall be given access to information concerning the Company equivalent to that information generally made available to the Company's common stockholders.
13.3 Beneficiary Designation. Each Participant may name, from time to time, any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to whom any benefit under the Plan is to be paid in case of such Participant's death before he or she receives any or all of such benefit. Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the Company, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the Participant's lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant's death shall be paid to his or her estate.
13.4 Unfunded Obligation. Any benefits payable to Participants pursuant to the Plan shall be unfunded obligations for all purposes, including, without limitation, Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The Company shall not be required to segregate any monies from its general funds, or to create any trusts, or establish any special accounts with respect to such obligations. The Company shall retain at all times beneficial ownership of any investments, including trust investments, which the Company may make to fulfill its payment obligations hereunder. Any investments or the creation or maintenance of any trust or any Participant account shall not create or constitute a trust or fiduciary relationship between the Committee or the Company and a Participant, or otherwise create any vested or beneficial interest in any Participant or the Participant's creditors in any assets of the Company. The Participants shall have no claim against the Company for any changes in the value of any assets which may be invested or reinvested by the Company with respect to the Plan. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive any payment from the Company under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company.
