COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

In December 1998, the Board of Directors revised the Amended and
Restated Equity Compensation Plan (the "Plan") to compensate outside directors
with 8,000 non-qualified stock options for services rendered as a director (each
a "Formula Grant"). Outside directors who were in office on December 9, 1998,
specifically Messrs. Cam Garner, Irving Jaffe, Howard Shecter, Jeffrey Stiefler
and Joseph Stemler, received the Formula Grant at the exercise price of $20.375,
the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of the grant, in lieu of
cash compensation for 1999. Formula Grant options shall have a per share
exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of
grant (or on the most recently preceding business day). Of the 8,000 options
granted to each outside director on December 9, 1998, 3,000 options vested and
became exercisable on the date of grant and 2,500 options will vest and become
exercisable on each of the first and second anniversaries of the date of grant.
Formula Grant options expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant or 60
days after the individual ceases to serve as a director or employee of the
Company; provided, however, that in the event of an outside director's death or
disability, any stock option may thereafter be exercised, to the extent then
exercisable, for a period of one year from the date of such death or disability
or until the stated expiration of the Formula Grant, whichever period is
shorter.

Prior to December 1997, each outside director, upon election to the
Board was entitled to receive options to purchase 80,000 shares of Common Stock,
as adjusted for the 100% stock dividends distributed on January 2, 1997 and
April 1, 1998, at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Common
Stock on the date of grant. Such options were granted to each of the following
directors upon their election: in 1993, to Howard Shecter, in 1995, to Joseph
Stemler and in 1996, to Cam Garner. In December 1998, the Board amended the Plan
to provide that any new outside directors elected to the Board would receive
options to purchase 25,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to
the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. Mr. Stiefler was
granted 25,000 options to purchase 25,000 shares of Common Stock on December 9,
1998 upon his election to the Board. The options granted to outside directors
upon their election become exercisable at the rate of 20% on each anniversary of
the date of grant and expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant or 60
days after such individual ceases to serve as a director or employee of the
Company. The employee directors do not receive additional compensation for their
services as director.

Beginning in 1993, the Company began paying Irving Jaffe for his
services as Chairman of the Board and for consulting services provided to the
Company in the areas of marketing and public relations. During 1998 Irving Jaffe
was paid at a rate of $100,000 per annum for his consulting services. Effective
April 1, 1999, Irving Jaffe will be paid at a rate of $50,000 per annum for his
consulting services. Beginning in 1997, Mr. Braverman entered into a consulting
agreement with the Company. During 1998, Mr. Braverman was paid at a rate of
$300,000 per annum and received a bonus of $150,000. In addition, in January
1999, Mr. Braverman received, in connection with his service as a consultant,
20,000 options at the exercise price of $21.50, the fair market value of the
Common Stock on the date of the grant. These options become exercisable at the
rate of 20% on each anniversary of the date of grant and expire on the tenth
anniversary of the date of grant or 60 days after Mr. Braverman ceases to serve
as a director, consultant or employee of the Company. Effective April 1, 1999,
Mr. Braverman will continue to be paid as a consultant at a rate of $200,000 per
annum and be eligible to receive a bonus of $100,000 based on achieving certain
objectives. Mr. Braverman does not receive either cash compensation or the

COMMITTEES AND MEETINGS

During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Board of Directors held six
regular meetings. All of the directors attended at least 75 percent of the
number of meetings of the Board of Directors and of the committees thereof held

during the year ended December 31, 1998. The Executive Committee has all the
authority held by the full Board of Directors, except with respect to certain
matters reserved to the Board of Directors by law.

The Compensation Committee consisted of Cam Garner and Joseph Stemler

December 31, 1998. The primary function of the Compensation Committee is to

compensation levels for executive officers and other key employees and to
administer the Plan.

The Audit Committee consisted of Cam Garner, Joseph Stemler and Howard
L. Shecter during 1998. The Audit Committee held one meeting during the year
ended December 31, 1998. The primary function of the Audit Committee is to
assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its responsibilities with respect to
the accounting and financial reporting practices of the Company and to address
the scope and results of the audit and other services performed by the Company's
independent accountants.

The Board of Directors does not have a separate nominating committee and
therefore performs the functions of a nominating committee.

16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
requires the Company's directors, executive officers and persons owning more
than 10% of the Company's equity securities to file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission reports of ownership of the Company's equity securities.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

The Compensation Committee (the "Committee") consisted of Cam Garner and
Joseph Stemler during 1998. Neither of the committee members has ever been an
officer or employee of the Company or its subsidiaries.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Committee has the authority to determine the compensation of the
Company's executive officers and to administer the Plan. The Committee currently
consists of two outside directors who are not officers or employees of the
Company. The Committee currently meets the requirements of outside directors
under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Committee believes that the Company's compensation plans should be
administered in a manner that will enable the Company to:

(1) recruit, develop and retain the highest quality executives, by
paying executives base compensations competitive with those of
its peers;

(2) maximize financial performance, balancing appropriately the
short and long term goals of the Company; and

(3) align the interests of Company executives with those of its
shareholders through the use of stock options to link a
significant portion of compensation to increases in shareholder
value.

10-K/A 12th Page of 16 TOC 1st Previous Next Bottom Just 12th

To achieve its policy goals, the Committee has utilized salary, cash
bonuses and non-cash compensation, including grants of stock and stock options.
The Committee has focused on the establishment of competitive salary levels for
each of its executive officers. The Committee has utilized publicly available
information in determining competitive salary levels, both for new and existing
executives.

The Company has retained a leading independent compensation consulting
firm to assist the Committee in defining appropriate policies with respect to
base and incentive compensation for the Company's executive officers and other
key employees. In developing such policies, the Committee considered information
and data concerning compensation paid by corporations that compete with the
Company for executive talent, including corporations engaged in high growth
(including technology-based) industries and manufacturing concerns, and not
necessarily the Company's peers that are used to compare shareholder returns.

Cash bonuses have been used to encourage and reward short term
performance. All executives officers were awarded cash bonuses in 1999 based on
1998 performance. The Committee has established a maximum bonus target for each
executive and determined the actual bonus amount to be paid to each executive
based upon the individual's performance as measured against the individual's
goals and responsibilities and upon the Company's performance. Factors such as
achievement of sales targets in the case of sales and marketing personnel,
product availability and quality in the case of manufacturing personnel and
other criteria in the case of financial and administrative personnel were taken
into consideration in this process. In addition, the Committee has established
an over-achievement bonus percentage for each executive which is paid if the
Company achieves previously established earnings per share targets.

Stock options have been utilized by the Committee to encourage and
reward both long term and short term compensation goals. The Committee believes
that stock options provide a particularly effective incentive for the
enhancement of shareholder value since the full benefit of stock option grants
will not be realized unless there has been appreciation in per share values over
an extended period of time. With the exception of certain options granted to the
Chief Executive Officer, all of the Company's option grants to employees vest in
installments over a period of years, generally five years, thus creating an
additional incentive for the individual to remain in the employ of the Company.
In addition, certain stock options have been structured to be utilized as an
incentive for short- and medium-term performance. The Committee authorized the
grant of stock options to selected employees, based upon the employee's
performance in 1998. The options would vest in installments of 20% per year over
the ensuing five years.

Prior to June 1996, compensation for the Company's Chief Executive
Officer, Richard Jaffe, and former Co-Chief Executive Officer, Neil Braverman,
was subject to the terms of employment agreements approved by the Board of
Directors in June 1993. Subsequent to June 1996, the Company sought to
compensate its Chief Executive Officer in a competitive manner that utilizes
salary, cash bonuses and non-cash compensation to closely align the interests of
the Chief Executive Officer with those of the shareholders. The cash bonus
awarded the Chief Executive Officer in 1999 for 1998 performance was based in
part on the individual's performance and in part on the Company's performance.
In 1998, shareholders approved a performance stock option grant of 1,200,000
shares to the Chief Executive Officer ("CEOPO"), granted by the Committee in
1997 subject to shareholder approval, the value of each of which was tied to
future increases in the price of the Company's Common Stock. Unlike options
granted under the Company's existing Amended and Restated Equity Compensation
Plan (the "Plan"), a significant portion of these options required the Company's
Common Stock price to increase significantly to a specified threshold level,
within a given time frame, before the Chief Executive Officer would have the
right to exercise the options. The exercise prices of these CEOPO were set to
ensure that the Chief Executive Officer would receive only minimal gain from the
CEOPO for average Company stock price growth, but provided significantly greater
rewards to the Chief Executive Officer for achieving well above average stock
price growth, thereby keeping the Chief Executive Officer focused on increasing
shareholder value. During 1998, two thirds of these CEOPO vested and became
immediately exercisable. The Chief Executive Officer will not receive subsequent
grants of restricted stock or stock options under the Plan or otherwise during
the three-year period after May 6, 1998, without shareholder approval.

PERFORMANCE GRAPH

The following graph shows the total return to shareholders of an
investment in the Company's Common Stock as compared to (a) an investment in a
peer group (see "Peer Index") made up of (i) Ballard Medical Products, Inc.,
(ii) ICU Medical, Inc., (iii) Maxxim Medical, Inc., (iv) Arrow International,
Inc. and (v) Vital Signs, Inc. and (b) an investment in the Nasdaq Market
Index-U.S. (the "Nasdaq Index"). The four companies in the Peer Index have been
selected because they represent comparable companies in the medical products
manufacturing business.

Total shareholder return is determined by dividing (i) the sum of the
cumulative amount of dividends for a given period (assuming dividend
reinvestment) and the difference between the share price at the end and the
beginning of the period, by (ii) the share price at the end of the period.
