Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Resignation of President and Chief Executive Officer, and Director

On July 12, 2015, Jeffrey M. Nugent resigned as President and Chief Executive Officer of Biolase, Inc. (the "Company"), and resigned as a member of the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company.

Appointment of President and Chief Executive Officer, and Director

As previously disclosed, Harold C. Flynn, Jr. was appointed President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, effective July 13, 2015. On July 13, 2015, the Board appointed Mr. Flynn to the Board.

As a result of the resignation and appointment disclosed above, the Company's Board currently consists of five directors.

On July 13, 2015, the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Compensation Committee") approved equity incentive compensation for Mr. Flynn consisting a non-qualified stock option to purchase 870,000 shares of Company common stock at an exercise price of $1.65 per share (the closing selling price per share of Company common stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market on July 13, 2015), and 870,000 restricted stock units ("RSUs"). The RSUs vest based upon specific performance criteria established by the Compensation Committee, and one-fourth of the stock options vest on July 13, 2016 and the remaining three-fourths vest ratably monthly over a thirty-six month period, commencing on August 13, 2016, subject to Mr. Flynn’s continued service with the Company through the applicable vesting dates.

The stock options and the RSUs are subject to accelerated vesting upon a change of control unless (a) they are assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or are otherwise continued in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the change in control transaction or (b) they are replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor corporation that meets the requirements specified in Mr. Flynn’s award agreements. In addition, the stock options and the RSUs are subject to accelerated vesting in connection with certain qualifying terminations of service, as specified in Mr. Flynn’s award agreements.

The stock options and RSUs were granted outside of the Company’s stockholder-approved equity incentive plan.

The foregoing description of Mr. Flynn’s stock option agreement and restricted stock unit award agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements. Copies of such agreements are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
