2012 Equity Awards
Stock Option Grants
. On January 26, 2012, the Committee granted options to purchase shares of the Companys common stock and performance share awards to the Executive Officers under the
Companys 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended. The independent members of the Board ratified the equity grants to Dr. Martin.
The options each have an exercise price per share of $48.59, representing the closing price of the Companys common stock on January 26, 2012. The options will vest as to 25% of the underlying
shares on the first anniversary of the date of grant, and the balance will vest in successive equal quarterly installments through the fourth anniversary of the date of grant, subject to such individuals continued service with the Company
through each applicable vesting date.
Performance Share Awards
. Each Executive Officer was also
granted at the same time a performance share award with performance vesting and service vesting requirements. The performance shares will convert into actual shares of the Companys common stock based on the Companys attainment of
pre-established performance goals measured over the applicable performance periods and the individuals continued service with the Company through each of the applicable service periods.
Each such performance share award is divided into two separate equal tranches. The performance-vesting requirement for
the first tranche is tied to the percentile level at which the Companys total shareholder return for the 3-year performance period beginning January 1, 2012 and ending December 31, 2014 stands in relation to the total shareholder
return realized for that same period by the companies comprising the following three subsets of the S&P Healthcare Index: Biotechnology, Pharmaceuticals and Health Care Equipment (collectively the S&P Healthcare
Sub-Index). The service-vesting condition for such tranche is tied to the individuals continued service with the Company through the date following the completion of the 3-year performance
period on which the Committee certifies the attained level of the total shareholder return performance goal.
The second tranche of each performance award is subdivided into three equal subtranches, each with its own performance
period and service period. The performance-vesting requirement for the first subtranche is the Companys recognition of revenue for the one-year performance period coincident with the 2012 calendar fiscal year in the dollar amount set by the
Committee at the time the award was made, with such revenue to be measured on a consolidated basis with the Companys subsidiaries in accordance with the Companys audited consolidated financial statements for such calendar fiscal year.
The service-vesting requirement for that subtranche is tied to the individuals continued service with the Company through the 3-year service period beginning January 1, 2012 and ending December 31, 2014. The performance-vesting
requirement for the second subtranche will be tied to the Companys recognition of consolidated revenue for the one-year performance period coincident with the 2013 calendar fiscal year in the dollar amount to be set by the Committee no later
than ninety (90) days after the start of that performance period. The service-vesting requirement for that subtranche is tied to the individuals continued service with the Company through the 2-year service period beginning
January 1, 2013 and ending December 31, 2014. The performance-vesting requirement for the final subtranche will be tied to the Companys recognition of consolidated revenue for the one-year performance period coincident with the 2014
calendar fiscal year in the dollar amount to be set by the Committee no later than ninety (90) days after the start of that performance period. The service-vesting requirement condition for that final subtranche will be tied to the
individuals continued service with the Company through the 1-year service period beginning January 1, 2014 and ending December 31, 2014.
The actual number of shares of the Companys common stock into which each tranche or subtranche of the performance shares may convert will be calculated by multiplying the number of performance
shares allocated to that tranche or subtranche by a performance percentage ranging from 0% to 200% based on the actual level at which the applicable performance goal is attained, as certified by the Committee.
Should the Executive Officers service with the Company terminate prior to the completion of one or more applicable
service periods under the award, then the performance shares allocated to those service periods will be forfeited, whether or not the performance goal applicable to those shares are met. However, if the Executive Officers employment terminates
during an applicable service period by reason of retirement on or after the date his or her combined age and years of service total 70 years or more or by reason of death, disability, then a portion of the performance shares allocated to that
service period will convert into actual shares of vested common stock based on the level at which the performance goal in effect for that service period is actually attained and the number of calendar months of continuous service he or she completed
during that service period. However, for the first tranche of performance shares, there will be no such pro-rated award in the event of the individuals retirement, unless such retirement occurs after the first year of the 3-year service period
applicable to that tranche.
Should a change in control transaction occur after the start of one or more
applicable service periods under the award but prior to the completion of those service periods and the Executive Officer remain in continued service with the Company through the closing of that change in control transaction, then the portion of his
or her performance shares allocated to those service periods will immediately convert into vested shares of the Companys common stock equal to (i) 100% of the allocated number of performance shares or, with respect to the performance
shares allocated to the first tranche of his or her award, (ii) any greater percentage of those allocated shares, if the change in control occurs more than one year after the start of the 3-year service period applicable to that tranche, based
on the actual level at which the total shareholder return goal in effect for that tranche is in fact attained, as measured over an abbreviated performance period ending with the Companys last fiscal quarter prior to the effective date of the
change in control.
An Executive Officer who is a U.S. resident may elect to defer the receipt of any shares
of the Companys common stock into which the performance shares may convert to a later date by submitting a deferral election form to the Company within certain specified time periods. In the absence of such deferral, the performance shares
that vest under each performance share award will be issued on or before March 15, 2015.
