On December 14, 2005 the Board of Directors of dj Orthopedics, Inc. approved an amendment to the Company’s 2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Under the plan as amended, the “look back” period for the stock purchase price will be changed from two years to six months. Thus, participants will have the option of deferring a percentage of compensation into the plan for a six-month period beginning either July 1 or January 1 of each calendar year and purchase Company stock with such deferred amounts at a price that is 85% of the lower of the market price for the stock at the beginning or the end of said six-month period. All employees, including corporate officers, are eligible to participate in the plan, subject to limits set by the Internal Revenue Code.
