Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company's 1996 Form 10-KSB. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six month period ended March 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 1997. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS INTRODUCTION The Company designs, develops, manufactures and markets disposable latex-free continence care and other urological devices. The Company markets its products under its own ROCHESTER MEDICAL(R) brand and through private label arrangements, including its strategic marketing alliance with ConvaTec, a division of the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company. During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company increased sales and marketing activities over the prior year for its currently marketed product lines, began marketing its intermittent PERSONAL(TM) catheter, and continued preparations to begin marketing additional products already having FDA marketing approval. The Company has also revised and extended its private label supply agreements with Allegiance Euromedical. The Company commenced a multi-site clinical study of its FEMSOFT(TM) female continence insert, filed a 510(k) Notification relating to its Antibacterial Foley catheter, and continued preparations for introducing those devices to market. The Company's manufacturing facility and quality control procedures were audited for compliance with ISO 9001 standards, and the Company was advised that it would be recommended for certification. The Company occupied its new office and FEMSOFT manufacturing facility, and continued installation of its FEMSOFT production line and construction of an expansion to increase manufacturing capacity for its currently marketed product lines. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth, for the fiscal periods indicated, certain items from the statements of operations of the Company expressed as a percentage of net sales.

THREE MONTH AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 AND MARCH 31, 1996 NET SALES. Net Sales increased 61% to $1,743,537 for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 from $1,084,653 for the second quarter of fiscal 1996, due to growth in both private label and Company branded sales. Private label sales showed an overall increase of 44%, with collective sales volumes to ConvaTec, Mentor and Hollister nearly double the sales in the comparable quarter of the prior year. This collective increase was partially offset by relatively low sales to Allegiance during the contract renewal process involving a significant change in product and packaging specifications from bulk product to packaged and sterilized product. Sales of ROCHESTER MEDICAL brand products increased 135% over the comparable quarter of the prior year due primarily to a renewed focus on domestic field sales and stocking orders from international distributors. Net Sales increased 70% to $3,471,377 for the six months ended March 31, 1997, from $2,042,651 for the comparable six months of the prior year. Private label and ROCHESTER MEDICAL brand sales showed overall growth rates of 75% and 28%, respectively, over the comparable six months of the prior year. Factors affecting growth during the six months are consistent with those discussed above for the second quarter, with the growth rate for ROCHESTER MEDICAL brand products being slowed during the first quarter while the domestic field sales force was being restructured and repositioned to address fundamental changes in the purchasing and distribution practices within the domestic health care industry. GROSS MARGIN. The Company's gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 37% for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 compared with 27% for comparable quarter of the prior year. The Company's gross margin during the current quarter is in line with recent trend and shows marked improvement over the comparable prior year's quarter primarily due to efficiencies gained through higher production volumes. The Company's gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 37% for the six months ended March 31, 1997 compared with 28% for comparable period last year. Factors affecting margins and margin development during the current six months are consistent with those described above for the current quarter. MARKETING AND SELLING. Marketing and selling expense increased 65% to $449,596 for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 from $271,768 for the comparable quarter last year. The increased expense is primarily related to additional marketing and selling personnel to develop ROCHESTER MEDICAL brand sales and to develop programs for introduction of the Company's advanced products. Additional personnel include a National Sales Director, a Director of Marketing, and personnel in field sales, marketing support and customer service. The Company also continues to progressively increase its promotional activities, including direct marketing, attendance at trade shows, product samples and related programs. Marketing and selling expense increased 76% to $972,612 for the six months ended March 31, 1997 from $552,263 for comparable period last year. Factors affecting overall growth in expenses for the current six month period are consistent with those described above for the current quarter. The rate of increase during the current six months also reflects comparatively higher promotional costs in the first quarter related to trade shows and direct marketing activities. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expense increased 44% to $385,341 for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 from $268,171 for the comparable quarter last year, due to increased clinical testing activities, primarily for the FEMSOFT female continence insert. A portion of the increase also relates to preparation of the Company's 510(K) Notification for its Antibacterial Foley catheter following completion of clinical testing during the first quarter of fiscal 1997. Research and development expense increased 101% to $797,266 for the six months ended March 31, 1997 from $396,573 for the comparable six month period last year. Factors affecting overall growth rate for the current six month period are consistent with those described above for the current quarter. The comparatively higher rate of increase for the current six month period reflects the addition of a Director of Clinical and Regulatory Affairs in the second fiscal quarter of fiscal 1996. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expense increased 18% to $343,743 for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 from $290,547 for the comparable quarter of the prior year. The increase is due primarily to project costs for implementation of new business systems, ISO certification process costs, and additional personnel costs associated with general business development. General and administrative expense increased 71% to $687,488 for the six months ended March 31, 1997 from $401,973 for the comparable six month period last year. Factors affecting overall growth in expenses for the current six month period are consistent with those described above for the current quarter. The comparatively higher rate of increase for the six current month period reflects the addition of a Chief Financial Officer in the second quarter of fiscal 1996. INTEREST INCOME (EXPENSE). Interest income decreased 33% to $176,531 for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 from $229,131 for the comparable quarter of last year. The decrease is a result of the reduction of the Company's cash and investment balances from funding operating requirements and capital expenditures for construction of new and expanded facilities. Interest expense remained constant at $71,162 for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 compared with $71,390 for the same period last year, consisting of interest on the $3 million principal balance on the convertible note payable to ConvaTec. Interest income increased 6% to $380,908 for the six months ended March 31, 1997, from $359,641 for the comparable six month period last year. The increase in interest income relates to comparatively higher cash and investment balances during the current six month period versus the prior year. Cash and investment balances have been impacted significantly during these periods by the December 1995 receipt of $16.2 million in net proceeds from the Company's public offering and the timing of capital outlays in the current fiscal year for facilities construction and expansion projects. Interest expense remained constant at $142,412 for the six months ended March 31, 1997 compared with $142,666 for the same period last year, consisting of interest on the $3 million principal balance on the convertible note payable to ConvaTec. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's cash and marketable securities were $13,237,500 at March 31, 1997 compared to $17,408,129 at September 30, 1996, a decrease of $4,170,629. The Company used $936,564 of cash to finance operating activities during the first six months of 1997, compared to $349,468 in the comparable six month period last year, an increase of $587,096 of cash used. Increased expense levels during the six month period are well within management's expectations, and reflect the Company's continuing commitment to the investments required to bring its advanced technologies to market. Trade receivable balances are down from year end levels as a result of collection initiatives, while inventories increased moderately in preparation for future sales. Increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses are related to business growth and also reflect certain payments on new plant construction. Capital expenditures were $3,400,292 for the six months ended March 31, 1997, compared with $247,462 in the comparable period last year. The capital expenditure rate has increased sharply during the current six month period, almost exclusively related to construction activities on the new manufacturing and office facility and expansion of the current manufacturing facility. The Company believes that its capital resources on hand at March 31, 1997, together with revenues from sales, will be sufficient to satisfy its working capital requirements for the foreseeable future as described in the Liquidity and Capital Resources portion of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB (Part II, Item 6) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996. BUSINESS OUTLOOK The following discussion contains forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including the timing of purchases by customers, manufacturing capacities for both current products and new products, the timing of clinical preference testing and product introductions, FDA review and response times, the timing and ultimate outcome of clinical tests, the scope and effect of patent opinions, results of final ISO certification review, as well as other risk factors listed from time to time in the Company's SEC reports, including, without limitation, the sections entitled "Business Outlook" and "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB (Part II, Item 6) for the year ended September 30, 1996. The Company anticipates continued growth in both private label and branded product sales during the last half of the current fiscal and into fiscal 1998. Slower sales to Allegiance during the first half of the current year are expected to return during this period to more normal levels following the revision and extension of the Allegiance private label agreement and as Allegiance consumes previously acquired inventory stocks. Through December of 1996, the Company furnished Allegiance with its requirements of silicone Foley catheters in bulk for packaging and sterilization by Allegiance for sale in exclusive territories. Under the revised agreement, extending through November 30, 1999, the Company will furnish Allegiance with its requirements of silicone Foley catheters, packaged and sterile for resale on a non-exclusive basis. The Company anticipates continued growth in branded product sales in both domestic and overseas markets as a result of renewed sales and marketing focus, increased sales efforts, and the recent successful introduction of the Company's WIDEBAND(TM) male external catheter. In addition, the Company's PERSONAL(TM) intermittent catheter was introduced last month to augment its currently marketed product lines, and the Company has begun to develop marketing plans for introduction of its FEMSOFT continuous drain catheter, already having FDA marketing approval, as a replacement for Foley catheters for female patients. The Company has also filed a 510(K) Premarket Notification seeking FDA marketing approval for the Company's Antibacterial Foley catheter. The filing is based on the recently concluded clinical tests conducted at the University of Wisconsin which show a three-fold reduction in catheter induced bacterial urinary tract infections as compared to a control catheter in a large, prospective, randomized, double-blinded study. In addition to a lower rate of bacterial infections, the patient group using the Antibacterial catheter had a lower number of infections from bacterial strains likely to be resistant to antibiotics. The Company expects FDA review of the filing will proceed in due course. The Company has also retained a consultant to assist the Company in the process of obtaining CE mark certification necessary for sale of the Antibacterial Foley catheter in the European Common Market. The Company's clinical tests of its FEMSOFT female continence insert began at the first clinical site in January with the enrollment of patients in an initial six week screening protocol, and with patients first receiving a FEMSOFT insert for use in February. Enrollment and screening is currently in process at eight clinical sites, with patients receiving the FEMSOFT insert for use as they complete the screening process. The Company is also developing the data necessary for CE mark certification, and expects to submit its CE mark application concurrently with its PMA (Premarket Approval) submission to the FDA. The Company has received an opinion from its patent counsel to the effect that the FEMSOFT female continence insert does not infringe certain patents of which the Company is aware. The Company's manufacturing facility and quality control procedures for its currently marketed products were audited for compliance with ISO 9001 standards and CE Mark eligibility, and the Company was advised that it would be recommended for certification. The Company expects to receive certification following final review. The Company occupied new administrative and manufacturing facility in April, and began installing FEMSOFT manufacturing equipment in the new facility. The Company expects the equipment to be substantially installed by July, when the Company intends to begin testing and validating manufacturing processes necessary to move from laboratory to manufacturing scale production. The Company is also expanding its manufacturing capacity for male external catheters with a plant expansion and installation of a second production line. The new manufacturing line is expected to become operational later this year. The Company continues to explore the prospect of additional financing to expand future marketing activities which may be necessary to properly bring its Antibacterial Foley catheter and FEMSOFT female continence insert to market, if and as those products receive FDA marketing approval, as well as for research and development activities necessary to bring other of its products in development to market.

EX-10.12 2 AMENDED AND RESTATED SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION AGRMT AMENDED AND RESTATED SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT This Amended and Restated Supply and Distribution Agreement ("Restated Agreement") is made with effect from December 1,1996, between Rochester Medical Corporation, 1500 2nd Avenue Northwest, Stewartville, MN 55976 ("Rochester") and Euromedical Industries Sdn Bhd, with offices at P.0, Box 515 11900 Bayan Lepas, Penang, Malaysia ("EI"). Rochester and EI are parties to a Supply and Distribution Agreement dated as effective April 14, 1994 (the "Original Agreement"); and Rochester and EI desire to amend and restate their Original Agreement in order, INTER ALIA, to eliminate EI's minimum purchase obligations, to eliminate and phase out EI's exclusive distribution rights, to provide for Rochester furnishing EI with packaged product for distribution by EI and customers supplied by EI, to restrict Rochester from dealing directly with EI's customers identified by this Restated Agreement, and for other purposes; 1. SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION OF PRODUCTS 1.1 Rochester agrees to supply EI and EI agrees to distribute the Standard 100% Silicone Foley Catheters described on Exhibit A (the "Products"). As used herein, "Products" expressly excludes Rochester's Antibacterial Foley Catheter, its Comfort Sleeve(R) Foley Catheter, its Hand Actuated Retention Catheter in both continuous drain and valved configurations, and any other of its products not specifically identified on Exhibit A. 1.2 The Products and their packaging ("Packaging") shall exactly conform to the specifications agreed between EI and Rochester (the "Specifications"). Any change to the Specifications shall be subject to the written approval of both parties; provided, however, that Rochester may include applicable patent numbers on the Packaging upon issuance to Rochester of patents covering the Products. 1.3 The Products shall be supplied in finished sterile form and packaged in Packaging in accordance with the Specifications; provided, however, that the parties acknowledge that EI may at its options, from time to time, purchase unsterilized Products packaged only in a clear inner liner, or may purchase the Products in bulk, non-sterile, with or without a valve, upon such terms and conditions as the parties may reasonably agree in the future. 1.4 EI and Rochester expressly intend that Rochester shall furnish EI with Product that is packaged for resale by EI under EI's own brand and marks and shall also furnish EI with Product that is packaged for resale by EI's customers under brands and marks owned by such customers of EI, respectively.

Promptly after EI's receipt of notice of the commencement of any action of or the intent to commence any action, EI will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against Rochester, notify Rochester in writing of the commencement thereof or of the intent to commence an action, as the case may be, and omission so to notify Rochester will relieve Rochester from any liability hereunder as to the particular item for which indemnification is then being sought. In case any such action is brought against EI, and it notifies Rochester of the commencement thereof, Rochester will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel who shall be to the reasonable satisfaction of EI, and after notice from Rochester to EI of Rochester's election so to assume the defense thereof, Rochester will not be liable to EI party under this Statement of Indemnification Rights for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by EI in connection with the defense thereof.
