PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON MAY 26, 2004

General

The enclosed proxy (the “Proxy”) is solicited on behalf of the Board of Directors of BioLase Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on Wednesday, May 26, 2004 (the “Annual Meeting”) and at any adjournment or postponement thereof. The Annual Meeting will be held at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time at the Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa, 25135 Park Lantern, Dana Point, CA, 92629. These Proxy solicitation materials were mailed on or about May 10, 2004 to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Voting; Quorum

The specific proposals to be considered and acted upon at the Annual Meeting are summarized in the accompanying Notice and are described in more detail in this Proxy. On April 5, 2004, the record date (the “Record Date”) for determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting, 24,283,886 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) were outstanding. No shares of the Company’s preferred stock are outstanding. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held by such stockholder on the Record Date. Stockholders may not cumulate votes in the election of directors.

The presence at the Annual Meeting, either in person or by proxy, of holders of shares of the Company’s outstanding stock entitled to vote and representing a majority of the voting power of all of such shares shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. In the election of directors, the five nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes will be elected. With regard to Proposals Two and Three the affirmative vote of the holders of Common Stock representing a majority of the voting power present or represented by proxy and voting at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter is required for approval.

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction of business. With regard to Proposal One, broker non-votes and votes marked “withheld” will not be counted towards the tabulations of votes cast on such proposal presented to the stockholders. With regard to Proposals Two and Three, abstentions will be counted towards the tabulations of votes cast on such proposals presented to the stockholders and will have the same effect as negative votes, whereas broker non-votes will not be counted for purposes of determining whether such proposals have been approved.

Proxies

If the enclosed form of Proxy is properly signed and returned to the Company, the shares represented thereby will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions specified thereon. If the Proxy does not specify how the shares represented thereby are to be voted, the Proxy will be voted FOR the election of the directors proposed by the Board unless the authority to vote for the election of such directors is withheld; and, if no contrary instructions are given, the Proxy will be voted FOR the approval of Proposals Two and Three described in the accompanying Notice and Proxy. You may revoke or change your Proxy at any time before the

1

Annual Meeting by filing with the Secretary of the Company at the Company’s principal executive offices at 981 Calle Amanecer, San Clemente, California 92673 a notice of revocation or another signed Proxy with a later date. You may also revoke your Proxy by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

Solicitation

The Company will bear the entire cost of solicitation, including the preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of this Proxy Statement, the Proxy and any additional solicitation materials furnished to the stockholders. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding shares in their names that are beneficially owned by others so that they may forward this solicitation material to such beneficial owners. In addition, the Company may reimburse such persons for their costs in forwarding the solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. The Company may retain a proxy solicitor to assist in the distribution of Proxies and Proxy solicitation materials. Generally, the fee for such services is approximately $15,000 plus expenses. The original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by a solicitation by telephone, facsimile or other means by directors, officers or employees of the Company. No additional compensation will be paid to these individuals for any such services. Except as described above, the Company does not presently intend to solicit proxies other than by mail.

Deadline for Receipt of Stockholder Proposals

Proposals of stockholders of the Company that are intended to be presented by such stockholders at the Company’s 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders must be received no later than January 10, 2005 in order that they may be included in the proxy statement and form of proxy relating to that meeting. In addition, the proxy solicited by the Board of Directors for the 2005 Annual Meeting will confer discretionary authority to vote on any stockholder proposal presented at that meeting, unless the Company receives notice of such proposal no later than March 26, 2005.

Words such as “projects,” “believes,” anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “intends” and similar words and expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED AT THE ANNUAL MEETING

PROPOSAL ONE:

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

General

The Board of Directors currently consists of four persons whose term of office expires at the Annual Meeting. The directors to be elected will serve until the 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal. There currently exists one vacancy. If this proposal is approved, the Board will consist of five persons.

The Company’s current Board members and Robert M. Anderton are also its nominees for the upcoming election of directors. Each of the director nominees has agreed to serve if elected. Other than William A. Owens, management has no reason to believe that any of the nominees will be unavailable to serve. In the event any of the nominees named herein is unable to serve or declines to serve at the time of the Annual Meeting, the persons named in the enclosed Proxy will exercise discretionary authority to vote for substitutes.

Admiral Owens has indicated his willingness to stand for re-election and has agreed to serve on an interim basis if elected. Admiral Owens was recently appointed Chief Executive Officer of Nortel, Inc. and has to focus his attention on this important new position. As a result, Admiral Owens has found it necessary to resign from boards of directors on which he serves, including from our Board. Admiral Owens has tendered his resignation as a member of the Board of Directors to be effective 60 days from May 4, 2004.

Board Committees and Meetings

The Board of Directors held two meetings and acted by written consent various times during the year ended December 31, 2003. The Board has an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and formed a Nominating Committee in 2004. Each director attended or participated in 75% or more of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board on which such director served during 2003.

Audit Committee. The Audit Committee currently consists of three directors, Messrs. Pignatelli, Owens and d’Arbeloff, and is primarily responsible for approving the services performed by the Company’s independent auditor and reviewing their reports regarding the Company’s accounting practices and systems of internal accounting controls. The committee also reviews the Company’s financial reports, its accounting and financial policies in general, and management’s procedures and policies with respect to the Company’s internal accounting controls. The Audit Committee held eight meetings during 2003 and acted by written consent once during 2003.

The Board has determined that all members of the Audit Committee are “independent” as that term is defined in Rule 4200 of the listing standards of the National Association of Securities Dealers. The Board has determined that Mr. d’Arbeloff qualifies as the “audit committee financial expert” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), by means of his experience identified in this Proxy Statement under “Nominees for Term Ending Upon the 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.” The Board has also determined that Mr. d’Arbeloff is “independent” under the Nasdaq Stock Market’s Marketplace Rules and the Exchange Act rules.

The Board of Directors has adopted and approved a written charter for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. A copy of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter is attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix C.

Director Compensation

Directors who are not employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries did not receive any cash compensation from the Company for their service as members of the Board of Directors or any Board committee in 2003. However, directors are reimbursed for all reasonable travel and lodging expenses incurred by them in attending Board and committee meetings.

Under the automatic option grant program in effect under the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan, each individual who is elected to the Board as a non-employee director, at an annual meeting of stockholders or at a special meeting at which directors are elected, automatically is granted, on the date of such election, a non-statutory option to purchase 30,000 shares of Common Stock. Each option vests at a rate of 7,500 shares per quarter, commencing three months after the date of grant. If a non-employee director becomes a director for the first time on a date other than the date of a meeting at which all directors are elected, he or she automatically is granted a non-statutory option to purchase the number of shares equal to (a) 2,500 multiplied by (b) the difference between 12 and the number of months since the last meeting at which directors were elected, vesting at a rate of 2,500 shares per month.

Each automatic grant under the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan has an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value per share of common stock on the grant date and has a maximum term of ten years, subject to earlier termination twelve months after the date of the optionee’s cessation of Board service for any reason. Each automatic option is immediately exercisable for all of the option shares. However, any shares purchased under such option are subject to repurchase by the Company, at the lower of the exercise price paid per share or the fair

5

market value per share (determined at the time of repurchase), should the optionee cease Board service prior to vesting in those shares. The shares subject to each initial option grant and each annual option grant will immediately vest in full if certain changes in control or ownership occur or if the optionee dies or becomes disabled while serving as a director.

Under the current formula option grant program, Messrs. Pignatelli, Owens and d’Arbeloff each received an automatic option grant on April 29, 2003 to purchase 30,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.07 per share.

Required Vote

The five nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock present or represented by proxy and entitled to be voted for them shall be elected as directors. Broker non-votes and votes marked “withheld” will not be counted towards the tabulations of votes cast for the election of directors. Each Proxy cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than five.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors recommends that the stockholders vote FOR the election of the nominees listed above.

PROPOSAL TWO:

APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE BIOLASE TECHNOLOGY, INC.

2002 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

Background of the Plan

The Company’s 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2002 Plan”) was approved by the Company’s stockholders on May 23, 2002. The 2002 Plan originally reserved 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance as stock awards or upon exercise of options granted pursuant to the 2002 Plan.

The 2002 Plan is designed to serve as a comprehensive equity incentive program to attract and retain the services of individuals essential to the Company’s long-term growth and financial success. Accordingly, the Company’s officers and other employees, the non-employee directors and independent contractors have the opportunity to acquire a meaningful equity interest in the Company through their participation in the 2002 Plan.

Description of the Plan

Both the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee have the authority to act as the Plan Administrator of the discretionary option grant and stock issuance programs with respect to option grants and stock issuances made to the Company’s executive officers and non-employee directors and also have the authority to make option grants and stock issuances under those programs to all other eligible individuals. The Board of Directors may at any time appoint a secondary committee comprised of one or more directors to have concurrent authority to make option grants and stock issuances under those two programs to individuals other than executive officers and non-employee directors. All grants under that program will be made in strict compliance with the express provisions of such program. Options granted under the 2002 Plan may be “incentive stock options” as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or non-qualified options.

The 2002 Plan consists of three equity incentive programs: (1) the discretionary option grant program, (2) the stock issuance program, and (3) the automatic option grant program for the Company’s non-employee directors. The principal features of each program are described below.

Discretionary Option Grant Program

The 2002 Plan Administrator has complete discretion under the discretionary option grant program to determine which eligible individuals are to receive option grants, the time or times when those grants are to be made, the number of shares subject to each such grant, the status of any granted option as either an incentive stock option or a non-statutory option under the federal tax laws, the vesting schedule (if any) to be in effect for the option grant and the maximum term for which any granted option is to remain outstanding.

Each granted option will have an exercise price per share determined by the 2002 Plan Administrator. No granted option will have a term in excess of ten years. The shares subject to each option will generally vest in one or more installments over a specified period of service measured from the grant date.

Stock Issuance Program

Shares may be issued under the stock issuance program at a price per share determined by the 2002 Plan Administrator, payable in cash or for past services rendered to the Company. Shares may also be issued as a bonus for past services without any cash outlay required of the recipient. Shares of Common Stock may also be issued under the program pursuant to share right awards that entitle the recipients to receive those shares upon

7

the attainment of designated performance goals. The 2002 Plan Administrator has complete discretion under the program to determine which eligible individuals are to receive such stock issuances or share right awards, the time or times when those issuances or awards are to be made, the number of shares subject to each such issuance or award and the vesting schedule to be in effect for the stock issuance or share rights award.

Automatic Option Grant Program

Under the automatic option grant program, eligible non-employee members of the Board of Directors will receive a series of option grants over their period of board service. Each individual who is elected to the Board as a non-employee director, at an annual meeting of stockholders or at a special meeting at which directors are elected, automatically will be granted, on the date of such election, a non-statutory option to purchase 30,000 shares of Common Stock. Each option will vest at a rate of 7,500 shares per quarter, commencing three months after the date of grant. If a non-employee director becomes a member of the Board of Directors for the first time on a date other than the date of a meeting at which all directors are elected, he or she will automatically be granted a non-statutory option to purchase the number of shares equal to (a) 2,500 multiplied by (b) the difference between 12 and the number of months since the last meeting at which directors were elected. This option will vest at a rate of 2,500 shares per month.

Exercise Provisions, Amendment and Termination of the 2002 Plan

Upon cessation of service, the optionee will have a limited period of time in which to exercise his or her outstanding options to the extent exercisable for vested shares. The 2002 Plan Administrator has complete discretion to extend the period following the optionee’s cessation of service during which his or her outstanding options may be exercised and/or to accelerate the exercisability or vesting of such options in whole or in part. Such discretion may be exercised at any time while the options remain outstanding, whether before or after the optionee’s actual cessation of service.

The Board of Directors may amend or modify the 2002 Plan at any time, subject to any required stockholder approval pursuant to applicable laws and regulations.

Unless sooner terminated by the Board of Directors, the 2002 Plan will terminate on April 16, 2012.

Shares Subject to the 2002 Plan

On April 28, 2004, the Board of Directors approved an amendment to the 2002 Plan to reserve an additional 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock under the 2002 Plan, increasing the number of shares of Common Stock reserved under the 2002 Plan from 3,000,000 to 4,000,000. The number of shares of Common Stock subject to the 2002 Plan is being increased to provide for awards in future years. The Company intends to award grants to directors, officers and employees in order to provide incentives to such individuals to focus on critical long-range objectives of the Company and to encourage the attraction and retention of such individuals. As of March 31, 2004, options awarded pursuant to the 2002 Plan for 2,711,449 shares of Common Stock are outstanding and 251,750 shares remain available for issuance. These options were issued at fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. All options expire from a range of 90 days following termination of the optionee’s service to six months following termination of the optionee’s service, not to exceed ten years from the date of grant. The market value of the securities underlying the options as of March 31, 2004 is $17.50 per share of Common Stock. If the entire amount of 2,963,199 shares that have been authorized under the 2002 Plan were issued thereunder, such shares would constitute 12.2% of the Common Stock outstanding as of March 31, 2004.

The Company plans to file an S-8 Registration Statement by June 30, 2004 in order to register the 1,000,000 additional shares being reserved under the 2002 Plan.

Options Granted Under the 2002 Plan

Because option grants under the 2002 Plan are subject to the discretion of the Administrator, awards under the 2002 Plan that will be made for the upcoming year are undeterminable. Future option exercise prices under the 2002 Plan are also indeterminable because they will be based upon the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. As of December 31, 2003, the following persons or groups had in total, received options to purchase shares of Common Stock under the 2002 Plan as follows:

Name and Position	Exercise Price Per Share	Number of Shares
Federico Pignatelli Chairman of the Board	Fair market value on the date of grant	250,000
William A. Owens Director	Fair market value on the date of grant	150,000
Jeffrey W. Jones President, Chief Executive Officer and Director	Fair market value on the date of grant	1,007,000
George V. d’Arbeloff Director	Fair market value on the date of grant	150,000
Keith G. Bateman Executive Vice President, Vice President Global Sales	Fair market value on the date of grant	300,000
Robert E. Grant Vice President, Chief Operating Officer	Fair market value on the date of grant	100,000
Ioana Rizoiu Vice President, Research and Development	Fair market value on the date of grant	30,000
Edson J. Rood Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary	Fair market value on the date of grant	200,000
All current executive officers as a group (5 persons)	Fair market value on the date of grant	1,637,000
All current directors, who are not executive officers, as a group (3 persons)	Fair market value on the date of grant	550,000
All employees, including all current officers who are not executive officers, as a group	Fair market value on the date of grant	530,425

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences

Incentive stock options granted under the 2002 Plan will be afforded favorable federal income tax treatment under the Code. If an option is treated as an incentive stock option, the optionee will recognize no income upon grant or exercise of the option unless the alternative minimum tax rules apply. Upon an optionee’s sale of the shares (assuming that the sale occurs more than two years after grant of the option and more than one year after exercise of the option), any gain will be taxed to the optionee as long term capital gain. If the optionee disposes of the shares prior to the expiration of the above holding periods, then the optionee will recognize ordinary income in an amount generally measured as the difference between the exercise price and the lower of the fair market value of the shares at the exercise date or the sale price of the shares. Any gain recognized on such a premature sale of the shares in excess of the amount treated as ordinary income will be characterized as capital gain.

9

All other options granted under the 2002 Plan will be non-statutory stock options and will not qualify for any special tax benefits to the optionee. An optionee will not recognize any taxable income at the time he or she is granted a non-statutory stock option. However, upon exercise of the non-statutory stock option, the optionee will recognize ordinary income for federal income tax purposes in an amount generally measured as the excess of the then fair market value of each share over its exercise price. Upon an optionee’s resale of such shares, any difference between the sale price and the fair market value of such shares on the date of exercise will be treated as capital gain or loss and will generally qualify for long term capital gain or loss treatment if the shares have been held for more than one year. The Code provides for reduced tax rates for long term capital gains based on the taxpayer’s income and the length of the taxpayer’s holding period.

The recipient of a restricted share award will generally recognize ordinary compensation income when such shares are no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, based on the excess of the value of the shares at that time over the price, if any, paid for such shares. However, if the recipient makes a timely election under the Code to be subject to tax upon the receipt of the shares, the recipient will recognize ordinary compensation income at that time equal to the fair market value of the shares over the price paid, if any, and no further ordinary compensation income will be recognized when the shares vest.

The Company is generally entitled to a deduction for Federal income tax purposes equal to the amount of ordinary compensation income recognized by the recipient of an option or restricted share award at the time such income is recognized.

The foregoing does not purport to be a complete summary of the federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to holders of options or restricted shares, or to the Company. It also does not reflect provisions of the income tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which an optionee may reside, nor does it reflect the tax consequences of an optionee’s death.

PROPOSAL THREE:

RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Board of Directors has selected the firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent auditors for the Company during 2003, to serve in the same capacity for the year ending December 31, 2004, and is asking the stockholders to ratify this appointment.

A representative of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

The 1990 Plan is a non-shareholder-approved plan under which options were authorized to be granted to directors, officers or employees of BioLase. The Board authorized 150,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the 1990 Plan. Options under this plan were granted with an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value per share of common stock on the grant date and vested in installments during the optionee’s period of service with BioLase. The plan administrator (either the Board or a Board committee) may cause options to vest on an accelerated basis in the event BioLase is acquired and those options are not assumed or replaced by the acquiring entity. Each option has a maximum term (not to exceed 10 years) set by the plan administrator at the time of grant, subject to earlier termination following the optionee’s cessation of employment.

Share issuances under the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan and 1993 Stock Option Plan will not reduce or otherwise affect the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 1990 Plan, and share issuances under the 1990 Plan will not reduce or otherwise affect the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan and 1993 Stock Option Plan.

Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment and Change in Control Arrangements

In December 2003, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Jeffrey W. Jones, President and Chief Executive Officer. The agreement provides for an initial term of two years commencing on January 1, 2004 and ending on December 31, 2005, after which his employment will continue on a calendar quarter to calendar quarter basis on the terms existing at the time until terminated at the expiration of a calendar quarter on at least 90 days prior notice by either party, or until the employment agreement is amended, renewed or extended. The Company may immediately terminate the employment agreement at any time for cause as defined in the employment agreement. If the Company terminates Mr. Jones’ employment other than for cause, Mr. Jones will be entitled to receive severance pay in an amount equal to six to 12 months’ base salary. Under the terms of the employment agreement, Mr. Jones receives a base annual salary of $275,000. In addition, Mr. Jones is entitled to

17

receive a bonus equal to 0.75% of all 2004 sales in excess of $40,000,000. Under his employment agreement, Mr. Jones received an option to purchase 200,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $14.01, which was the fair market value of our common stock on December 12, 2003. The option vests and will be exercisable at a rate of approximately 8,333 shares per month and expires ten years from the date of grant, subject to early termination should Mr. Jones cease to provide service to the Company. Mr. Jones is entitled to receive a housing allowance of $3,500 per month for expenses incurred in maintaining a residence in California in connection with his employment with us. The housing allowance will be deducted from any bonus he is entitled to receive. Mr. Jones also is entitled to receive an allowance for an automobile and related expenses, four weeks paid vacation per year, reimbursement of reasonable business expenses and other executive benefits. The previous employment agreement with Mr. Jones expired on December 31, 2003. Other than as specified, the terms of Mr. Jones’ current agreement are substantially the same as the terms of his previous employment agreement.

In Mr. Jones’ employment agreement, the Company agreed to indemnify Mr. Jones to the maximum extent permitted under Delaware law against any expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement (with our written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, threatened or initiated against Mr. Jones by reason of the fact that he was serving as an officer, director, employee or agent of the Company or was serving at the Company’s request as an officer, director, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

In January 1999, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Keith G. Bateman, Executive Vice President responsible for sales. Mr. Bateman’s base salary was $150,000 for 2003. Mr. Bateman in 2003 was eligible for a monthly bonus equal to 0.15% of all sales up to $1,000,000, 0.265% of all sales in excess of $1,000,000 and 1.0% of all sales after cumulative sales for the year exceed $43,000,000. Under the terms of this agreement, if the Company is acquired or merged, the surviving entity either must offer Mr. Bateman a one-year employment agreement with at least equivalent compensation terms as he receives from the Company or must pay Mr. Bateman severance in an amount equal to his total compensation during the previous nine months, including base salary, commissions and bonus. Except for the above-described provision relating to the acquisition or merger of the Company company, the agreement is terminable at any time by the Company or Mr. Bateman.

In August 2003, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Robert E. Grant, Chief Operating Officer. Under this agreement, the Company granted to Mr. Grant an option to purchase up to 90,000 shares of our common stock at a per share exercise price of $11.02, which vests over three years with acceleration of vesting upon an acquisition of the company. Under his agreement, Mr. Grant’s base salary was $150,000 for 2003, and he was eligible for a bonus of $50,000 per year based on overall company performance, and commissions of $100,000 per year payable quarterly based on international sales performance.

The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors has the authority to provide for accelerated vesting of the shares of our common stock subject to any outstanding options held by the chief executive officer or any other executive officer or any unvested share issuances actually held by such individual, in connection with certain changes in control of us or the subsequent termination of the officer’s employment following the change of control event.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During 2003, the Compensation Committee consisted of Messrs. Pignatelli and d’Arbeloff. No member of the Compensation Committee was an officer or employee of the Company at any time during the 2003 fiscal year or at any other time. The Board of Directors as a whole, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey W. Jones, made all compensation decisions with respect to the Company’s executive officers during 2003. No current executive officer of the Company has ever served as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any other entity that has or has had one or more executive officers serving as a member of the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee.

Report On Executive Compensation

During 2003, the Compensation Committee’s primary responsibility was to review and develop the Company’s general compensation policies and make recommendations to the Board of Directors on compensation levels for the Company’s executive officers. After receiving and reviewing the Compensation Committee’s recommendations, the Board of Directors decided the overall compensation packages, including option grants, provided to each of the executive officers of the Company, including the President and Chief Executive Officer.

General Compensation Policy.    The Board and the Compensation Committee believe that the compensation programs for the Company’s executive officers should reflect the Company’s performance and the value created for the Company’s stockholders. In addition, the Company’s compensation programs are meant to support the short-term and long-term strategic goals and values of the Company and should reward individual contributions to the Company’s success. When establishing overall compensation, the Board or the Compensation Committee takes into consideration the amounts paid to executive officers of companies with business structure, size, location and stage of development similar to the Company.

The goal of the Board and the Compensation Committee is to attract and retain executive officers who will strive for excellence and to motivate those individuals to achieve superior performance by providing them with rewards for assisting the Company in meeting targets regarding revenues, profitability and technology development. In order to achieve this goal, the policy of the Board and the Compensation Committee is to provide the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers with competitive compensation opportunities based upon their contribution to the financial success of the Company and their personal performance. The objective of the Board and the Compensation Committee is to have a substantial portion of each executive officer’s compensation contingent upon the Company’s performance. Accordingly, the compensation package for the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers is comprised of three elements: (1) a base salary, designed to be competitive with salary levels in the industry and to reflect individual performance; (2) a discretionary annual incentive bonus payable in cash and tied to the Company’s achievement of annual financial and other performance goals; and (3) where appropriate, long-term stock-based incentive awards designed to strengthen the mutuality of interests between the executive officer and the Company’s stockholders.

The Board or the Compensation Committee periodically reviews total compensation levels and the distribution of compensation among the three elements identified above for each of the executive officers in the context of the compensation policy of the Company and compensation packages awarded to executive officers in comparable positions at companies within related industries. The Board and the Compensation Committee believe that the Company’s most direct competitors for executive talent include significantly larger and better-capitalized companies in the medical device industry, comprising a broader range of companies than those with which the Company is usually compared for purposes of stock performance.

Base Salary.    During 2003, the Compensation Committee reviewed the base salary of each executive officer. In assessing appropriately competitive salary levels, the Compensation Committee considered each officer’s position, experience and tenure with the Company, the duties and changes in duties of each officer, the

20

past accomplishments and expected future contributions of each officer, and information on competitive compensation levels for similar executive positions.

Annual Incentive Bonuses.    An executive officer may be awarded incentive bonuses based on the Company’s results of operations and financial performance, the performance of the executive officer in that officer’s area of responsibility and the officer’s contribution to the Company’s operating performance.

Long Term Stock-Based Incentives.    Stock-based incentives are designed to align the interests of the Company’s executive officer with those of the Company’s stockholders and provide each individual with a significant incentive to manage the Company from the perspective of an owner with an equity stake in the business. Options allow the officers to acquire shares of Common Stock at a fixed price per share (generally the market price on the grant date) over a specified period of time (up to ten years). Options generally become exercisable in a series of installments over a two to three-year period, contingent upon the officer’s continued employment with the Company. Accordingly, options provide a return to the executive officer only if he or she remains employed by the Company during the vesting period, and then only if the market price of the shares appreciates over the option term.

The size of the option grant to each executive officer, including any grant considered for the Chief Executive Officer, is set at a level that is intended to create a meaningful opportunity for stock ownership based upon the individual’s current position with the Company, the individual’s personal performance in recent periods and his or her potential for future responsibility and promotion over the option term. The Board or the Compensation Committee may also take into account the number of unvested options held by the executive officer in order to maintain an appropriate level of equity incentive for that individual. The relevant weight given to each of these factors varies from individual to individual

CEO Compensation.    In setting the total compensation payable to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer for 2004, the Board of Directors sought to provide Mr. Jones with a stable level of cash compensation within the range of compensation found among competitive companies, and to recognize Mr. Jones’ contributions to the Company’s overall performance. Mr. Jones is compensated in accordance with the terms of an employment agreement which is summarized under “Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment and Change in Control Arrangements.”

Compliance with Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m).    Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code disallows a tax deduction to publicly held companies for compensation paid to certain of their executive officers to the extent that such compensation exceeds $1.0 million per covered officer in any fiscal year. The limitation applies only to compensation that is not considered to be performance-based. Non-performance-based compensation paid to the Company’s executive officers for the 2003 fiscal year did not exceed the $1.0 million limit per officer, and the Company does not expect the non-performance-based compensation to be paid to its executive officers for the 2004 fiscal year to exceed that limit. Because it is unlikely that the cash compensation payable to any of the Company’s executive officers in the foreseeable future will approach the $1.0 million limit, the Company does not expect to take any action to limit or restructure the elements of cash compensation payable to the Company’s executive officers so as to qualify that compensation as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m). The Company will reconsider this decision should the individual cash compensation of any executive officer ever approach the $1.0 million level.

The 2002 Stock Incentive Plan imposes the requisite limitation on the maximum number of shares for which options may be granted per individual. Therefore, assuming a committee comprised solely of outside directors as required by Section 162(m) makes all option grants to executive officers of the Company, any compensation deemed paid in connection with the exercise of future option grants made to executive officers under the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the option shares on the grant date should qualify as performance-based compensation that will not be subject to the $1.0 million limitation.

21

It is the opinion of the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee that the executive compensation policies and plans provide the necessary total remuneration program to properly align the Company’s performance and the interests of the Company’s stockholders through the use of competitive and equitable executive compensation in a balanced and reasonable manner, for both the short and long-term.

POLICY OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS

Introduction

This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) sets forth the Company’s policies with respect to the way we conduct ourselves individually and operate our business. The provisions of this Code are designed to promote honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships. All employees, officers and directors of the Company must comply with the provisions of this Code. References to employees contained in this Code should be understood as referring to officers and directors as well.

In the course of performing our various roles in the Company, each of us will encounter ethical questions in different forms and under a variety of circumstances. Moments of ethical uncertainty may arise in our dealings with fellow employees, with customers, or with other parties such as government entities or members of our community. Our employees should never be content with simply obeying the letter of the law, but must also strive to comport themselves in an honest and ethical manner. This Code provides rules and procedures to help our employees, officers and directors recognize and respond to situations that present ethical issues. For guidance with respect to issues not addressed in this Code, employees are directed to the Company’s policies on a wide range of issues that arise in the course of employment.

The reputation of the Company is our greatest asset and its value relies on the character of its employees. In order to protect this asset, the Company will not tolerate unethical behavior by employees, officers or directors. Those who violate the standards in this Code will be subject to disciplinary action. If you are concerned about taking an action that may violate the Code or are aware of a violation by another employee, an officer or a director, follow the guidelines set forth in Sections 6 and 7 of this Code.

1.    Compliance with Laws, Rules and Regulations

Company policy requires that all employees, officers and directors of the Company comply fully with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. Whenever an applicable law, rule or regulation is unclear or seems to conflict with either another law or any provision of this Code, all employees, officers and directors are urged to seek clarification from their supervisor.

2.    Conflicts of Interest

Every employee has a primary business responsibility to the Company and must avoid conflicts of interest. A conflict of interest arises when an employee takes actions or enters into relationships that oppose the interests of the Company or interfere with the employee’s performance or independent judgment when carrying out his or her duties. The Company strictly prohibits its employees from taking any action or entering into any business relationship that creates, or even appears to create, a conflict of interest without the prior approval of a supervisor. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other members of the executive group, including the Controller, must receive approval of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors prior to taking any action or entering into any relationship that creates, or even appears to create, a conflict of interest. For purposes of determining whether a conflict exists, the actions of an employee’s immediate family members are treated as those of the employee and are therefore subject to the same considerations.

In order to avoid such conflicts, an employee may not receive any payments, compensation, or gifts, other than gifts of nominal value, from any entity that does business or seeks to do business with the Company. Furthermore, employees may not use Company property, information or influence or their position in the

D-1

Company for improper personal gain. Employees must be sensitive to other potential conflicts of interest that may arise and use their best efforts to avoid the conflict.

If an employee has any questions regarding the Company’s policy on conflicts of interest or need assistance in avoiding a potential conflict of interest, he or she is urged to seek the advice of his or her supervisor.

3.    Fair Dealing

The Company is committed to achieving success by fair and ethical means. We seek to maintain a reputation for honesty and fair dealing among our competitors and the public alike. In light of this aim, the Company prohibits employees from engaging in any dishonest, unethical or illegal business practices. An exhaustive list of unethical practices cannot be provided. Instead, the Company relies on the judgment of each individual employee to avoid such practices. Furthermore, each employee should endeavor to deal fairly with the Company’s customers, suppliers, competitors and employees. No employee should take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any other unfair business practice.

4.    Books and Records, Accounting Controls and Disclosures

The Company requires that all its books and records be maintained accurately and with honesty. This requires that no fund, asset, liability, revenue or expense be concealed or incompletely recorded for any purpose. All entries must be supported by documentation adequate to permit the books and records to be verified by audit. Proper accounting requires not only careful compliance by the Company’s accountants, but also the cooperation of all employees who are involved in keeping financial records of any type.

The Company’s internal auditing mechanism is essential to ensuring the accurate reporting of the Company’s financial information. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has the responsibility to review the Company’s policies and practices with respect to financial reporting. Auditors shall have unrestricted access to all Company documents and records. All employees are required to cooperate fully with internal and external audits. In no case may an employee make a false or misleading statement to any internal or external auditor, withhold records, or otherwise interfere with an audit. An employee who has knowledge of any unreported or improperly reported financial activity must report such information to his or her supervisor or the Audit Committee.

The Company recognizes that the investment community derives information regarding the Company’s financial condition primarily from the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. To promote the transparency of its financial operations, the Company has a strict policy requiring that all filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission be fair, accurate and timely.

5.    Waivers

The Company expects all employees, officers and directors to comply with the provisions of this Code. Any waiver of this Code for executive officers or directors may be made only by the Board of Directors and will be promptly disclosed to the public as required by law and the Nasdaq rules. When necessary, a waiver will be accompanied by appropriate controls designed to protect the Company.

6.    Compliance Resources

In some situations, an employee may be uncertain how to proceed in compliance with this Code. This uncertainty may concern the ethical nature of the employee’s own acts or the employee’s duty to report the unethical acts of another. When determining the proper course of action, the employee should carefully analyze the situation and seek guidance from his or her supervisor or other appropriate personnel in accordance with the following four steps:

1. Gather all the facts.    Do not take any action that may violate the Code until you have gathered all the facts that are required to make a well-informed decision and, if necessary, you have consulted with your supervisor.

D-2

2. Consider whether the action is illegal or contrary to the Code.    If the action is illegal or contrary to the provision of this Code, you should not carry out the act. If you believe that the Code has been violated by an employee, an officer or a director, you must promptly report the violation in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 7.

3. Discuss the problem with your supervisor.    It is your supervisor’s duty to assist employees to comply with this Code. Feel free to discuss the situation with your supervisor if you have any questions. You will suffer no retaliation for seeking such guidance.

4. If necessary, seek additional resources.    Our Director of Human Resources is available to speak with you about problematic situations if you do not feel comfortable approaching your direct supervisor. Alternatively, an ethics hotline (both telephonic and internet based) has been established to assist you with anonymously reporting an ethics matter.

7.    Reporting Procedures

All employees have a duty to report any violations of this Code, as well as violations of any laws, rules, or regulations. Employees also have a duty to report any transaction or relationship that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest.

If you are aware of a potential conflict of interest or believe that the Code has been violated by an employee you must promptly report the violation to his or her direct supervisor, the Manager of Human Resources or through the anonymous system established by the Company. If a report is made to a supervisor, the supervisor must in turn report the violation to the Director of Human Resources. All violations by an officer or director of the Company must be reported directly to the Chairman of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors using the anonymous system established by the Company.

If you make an anonymous report, you should create and preserve your own record of this report in order to be able to demonstrate your compliance with the requirement of reporting violations. Generally speaking, every effort will be made to maintain the confidentiality of reports of potential violations. However, there may be a point where the identity of the reporting employee may become known or may have to be revealed in the course of the investigation or to take corrective action.

The Company does not permit retaliation of any kind against employees for good faith reports of ethical violations. Any employee who attempts to or encourages others to retaliate against an individual who has reported a violation will be subject to disciplinary action.

8.    Disciplinary Action

The Company has implemented the following disciplinary policies to ensure that prompt and consistent actions are taken in response to Code violations:

1. Range of Penalties.    All violations of this Code will be treated seriously and will result in the prompt imposition of penalties which may include (1) an oral or written warning, (2) a reprimand, (3) suspension, (4) termination and/or (5) restitution. Violations will also be reported to the appropriate regulatory agencies or other authorities.

2. Disciplinary Process.    The penalty for a particular violation will be decided on a case-by-case basis and will depend on the nature and severity of the violation as well as the employee’s history of non-compliance and cooperation in the disciplinary process.

3. Consistent Enforcement.    All employees, officers and directors will be treated equally with respect to the imposition of disciplinary measures. Pursuant to this policy, all levels of employees will be subject to the same disciplinary action for the commission of a similar offense.
