TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of
Principal Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
.
(e) On November 15, 2007, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Rochester
Medical Corporation (the Company), approved a cash bonus management incentive plan for the fiscal
year ending September 30, 2008 (the Plan). The Companys management personnel will be entitled
to earn bonus incentive compensation under the Plan based upon the Companys financial performance
in fiscal 2008, including the Companys net sales and operating income. Such measures are deemed
by the Board of Directors to be important measures of, among other things, the Companys ability to
generate value for shareholders. Minimum, target and maximum payout levels are set based upon the
extent to which the specified performance measures are attained. A copy of the Plan is filed as
Exhibit 10.1 to, and incorporated by reference in, this report.
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
.
On November 15, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Company approved resolutions adopting an
amendment to the bylaws of the Company, clarifying the procedures for properly bringing forth
proposals before a regular meeting of shareholders and the process for establishing rules of
conduct for shareholder meetings. Section 2.02(c) was added to the Companys bylaws to provide as
follows: Only proposals to be brought before a regular meeting of shareholders by a shareholder in
accordance with the following procedures shall be considered at such regular meeting. For a
proposal to be properly brought by a shareholder at a regular meeting, the shareholder must give
written notice to the chief executive officer, chief financial officer or secretary of the
corporation so as to be received at the principal executive offices of the corporation not later
than the date determined in accordance with the proxy rules promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that proposals of
shareholders intended to be presented at such regular meeting must be received in order to be
included in the corporations proxy statement and proxy for such regular meeting. Each such notice
shall set forth (a) the name and address of the shareholder who intends to make the proposal
specified in such notice; (b) a representation that the shareholder is a holder of record of stock
of the corporation entitled to vote at the regular meeting and intends to appear in person or by
proxy at such regular meeting to make such proposal; (c) a brief description of such proposal and
the reasons for making the proposal at the regular meeting; (d) a description of any material
interest of the shareholder in the matter proposed; and (e) such other information that would be
required to be included in a proxy statement filed by the corporation pursuant to the proxy rules
of the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the proposal and the proponent thereof.
Section 2.10 was added to the Companys bylaws to provide as follows: The board of directors
may adopt such rules, regulations and procedures for the conduct of any meeting of the shareholders
as it deems appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with any applicable rules, regulations
or procedures adopted by the board of directors, the chairperson of any meeting may adopt such
rules, regulations and procedures for the meeting, and take such actions with respect to the
conduct of the meeting, as the chairperson of the meeting deems appropriate. The rules,
regulations and procedures adopted may include, without limitation, ones that (i) establish an
agenda or order of
business,
(ii) are intended to maintain order and safety at the meeting, (iii) restrict entry to the meeting after the time fixed for its commencement and (iv) limit the
time allotted to shareholder questions or comments. Unless otherwise determined by the board of
directors or the chairperson of the meeting, meetings of the shareholders need not be held in
accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure..
Section 3.02 of the Companys bylaws was modified to delete an outdated provision regarding
director nominations by independent directors in recognition that the Board of Directors has a
Nominating Committee of solely independent directors to provide for such director nominations.
