PROXY STATEMENT
ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS -- APRIL 19, 1994
INTRODUCTION
The accompanying proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors of Allergan,
Inc. ("Allergan" or the "Company"), 2525 Dupont Drive, Irvine, California 92715
for use at the annual meeting of the Company's stockholders to be held on April
19, 1994, and at any adjournment thereof, pursuant to the accompanying Notice of
Annual Meeting. This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card are being
mailed to all stockholders on or about March 17, 1994.
The expense of this solicitation will be paid by the Company. In addition
to solicitation by mail, officers and employees of the Company may solicit
proxies by telephone, by facsimile or in person. The Company has retained D.F.
King & Co., a professional soliciting organization, to aid in the solicitation
of proxies to be voted at the Annual Meeting at an estimated cost of $10,500
plus out-of-pocket expenses. The Company will also reimburse brokers, nominees,
fiduciaries and other custodians for reasonable expenses incurred by them in
sending proxy soliciting material to the beneficial owners of Allergan stock.
GENERAL INFORMATION REGARDING VOTING, CONFIDENTIALITY AND PROXIES
The persons named in the accompanying proxy will vote FOR the election of
the nominees for directors and FOR the other two proposals, unless otherwise
directed in the proxy. The proxy may be revoked by the stockholder at any time
prior to its use by giving notice of such revocation to the independent vote
tabulators. As to any other business which may properly come before the meeting,
the persons named in the accompanying proxy card will vote in accordance with
their best judgment, although the Company does not presently know of any other
business.
Holders of record of the Company's common stock at the close of business on
February 28, 1994 are entitled to vote at the meeting. On that date Allergan had
63,904,229 shares of common stock outstanding. Each stockholder has one vote per
share on all business of the meeting. A majority of the outstanding shares will
constitute a quorum at the meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted
for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the
transaction of business. Abstentions are counted as if they were "no" votes in
tabulations of the votes cast on proposals presented to stockholders, whereas
broker non-votes are not counted for purposes of determining whether a proposal
has been approved.
It is the Company's policy that all proxies, ballots and voting materials
that identify the particular vote of a stockholder be kept confidential, except
in the following circumstances: (1) to allow the independent election inspectors
to certify the results of the vote; (2) as necessary to meet applicable legal
requirements, including the pursuit or defense of a judicial action; (3) where
the Company concludes in good faith that a bona fide dispute exists as to the
authenticity of one or more proxies, ballots, or votes, or as to the accuracy of
the tabulation of such proxies, ballots, or votes; (4) where a stockholder
expressly requests disclosure or has made a written comment on a proxy card; (5)
where contacting stockholders by the Company is necessary to obtain a quorum,
the names of stockholders who have or have not voted (but not how they voted)
may be
<PAGE> 5
disclosed to the Company by the independent election inspectors; (6) aggregate
vote totals may be disclosed to the Company from time to time and publicly
announced at the meeting of stockholders at which they are relevant; and (7) in
the event of any solicitation of proxies or written consents with respect to any
of the securities of the Company by a person other than the Company of which
solicitation the Company has actual notice.
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
PROPOSAL 1
The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides for three
classes of directors, each class consisting, as nearly as may be possible, of
one third of the whole number of the Board of Directors. At each annual meeting
the directors elected by stockholders to succeed directors whose terms are
expiring are identified as being of the same class as those directors they
succeed and are elected for a term to expire at the third annual meeting of
stockholders after their election and until their successors are duly elected
and qualified. The Board of Directors elects directors to fill vacancies on the
Board, as they occur, as well as newly created directorships. A director elected
to fill a vacancy is elected to the same class as the director he or she
succeeds, and a director elected to fill a newly created directorship holds
office until the next election by the stockholders of the class to which such
director is elected. The Board of Directors currently consists of 12 directors
and currently four each serve as Class I, Class II and Class III directors.
UNLESS OTHERWISE DIRECTED IN THE PROXY, THE PERSONS NAMED IN THE
ACCOMPANYING PROXY INTEND TO VOTE THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THE PROXY FOR THE
ELECTION AS DIRECTORS OF THE FOUR NOMINEES NAMED BELOW, ALL OF WHOM ARE, AT
PRESENT, CLASS II DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY.
Directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the meeting
in person or by proxy by the holders of shares entitled to vote in the election.
The Board of Directors is informed that all the nominees are willing to serve as
directors, but if any of them should decline or be unable to act as a director,
the persons named in the proxy will vote for such substitute nominee or nominees
as may be designated by the Board of Directors unless the Board reduces the
number of directors accordingly.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES
The Board of Directors held seven meetings during 1993 and its standing
committees also met from time to time to address issues within their respective
jurisdictions. Average attendance by directors at regular and special Board and
committee meetings was 89% and all directors attended 75% or more of the
meetings of the Board and committees on which they served, except Leslie G.
McCraw who attended 71% of such meetings.
Audit Committee -- The Audit Committee, which had four meetings in 1993,
nominates the firm of independent auditors for appointment by the Board and
meets with the independent auditors to discuss the scope and results of their
audit examination and the fees related to such work. It also meets with the
Company's internal auditors and financial management to review the internal
audit department's activities; to discuss the Company's accounting practices and
procedures; to review the adequacy of the Company's accounting and control
systems; and to report to the Board any considerations or recommendations the
Audit Committee may have with respect to such matters. The Committee also
reviews the audit schedule and considers any issues raised by its members, the
independent public accountants retained to audit the books and records of the
Company, the internal audit staff, the legal staff or management. In addition,
the Committee monitors the Business Ethics Policy for the Company's employees,
coordinates compliance and reviews and investigates noncompliance matters. None
of the members of the Audit Committee are officers or employees of the Company
or any of its subsidiaries.
Finance Committee -- The Finance Committee, which had five meetings in
1993, reviews, approves or modifies management recommendations on corporate
financial strategy and policy and, where appropriate, makes recommendations to
the Board of Directors.
Nominating Committee -- The Nominating Committee was established to
recommend qualified candidates for election as directors of the Company,
including the slate of directors which the Board proposes for election by
stockholders at the Annual Meeting. The Nominating Committee held no formal
meetings in 1993; however, its members conferred with one another from time to
time to discuss matters of pertinance to the nominating process. The Nominating
Committee met in January 1994 to recommend the slate of directors proposed by
the Board for election at the Annual Meeting for which proxies are hereby
solicited.
Organization And Compensation Committee -- The Organization and
Compensation Committee, which had six meetings in 1993, reviews and approves
corporate organizational structure; reviews performance of corporate officers;
establishes overall employee compensation policies; and recommends to the Board
of Directors major compensation programs. The Committee also reviews and
approves compensation of directors and corporate officers, including salary and
bonus awards, and administers the 1989 Incentive Compensation Plan. No member of
the Organization and Compensation Committee is a member of management or
eligible for compensation other than as a director. The report of the Committee
begins on page 15.
STOCKHOLDER NOMINATIONS
The Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company provides that any
stockholder entitled to vote for the election of directors at a meeting may
nominate persons for election as directors only if timely written notice of such
stockholder's intent to make such nomination is given, either by personal
delivery or United States mail, postage prepaid, to the Secretary, Allergan,
Inc., 2525 Dupont Drive, Irvine, CA 92715. To be timely, a stockholder's notice
must be delivered to, or mailed and received at, the address provided not less
than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the scheduled annual meeting,
regardless of any postponements,
5
<PAGE> 9
deferrals or adjournments of that meeting to a later date; provided, however,
that if less than 40 days' notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the
scheduled annual meeting is given or made, notice by the stockholder, to be
timely, must be so delivered or received not later than the close of business on
the tenth day following the earlier of the day on which such notice of the date
of the scheduled annual meeting was mailed or the day on which such public
disclosure was made. A stockholder's notice to the Secretary must set forth: (a)
as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or
re-election as a director, (i) the name, age, business address and residence
address of the person, (ii) the principal occupation or employment of the
person, (iii) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Company
beneficially owned by the person, (iv) any other information relating to the
person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations for proxies for
election of directors pursuant to Rule 14a under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended; and (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice (i) the name
and address, as they appear on the Company's books, of the stockholder and (ii)
the class and number of shares of the Company's stock which are beneficially
owned by the stockholder on the date of such stockholder notice. The Company may
require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may be
reasonably required by the Company to determine the eligibility of such proposed
nominee to serve as director of the Company.
DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Of the Board's current 12 members, three are officers of the Company who do
not receive additional compensation for Board or committee service. The
remaining directors received, during the period from 1989 through 1993, an
annual $20,000 retainer plus $1,000 for each Board meeting and $750 for each
committee meeting attended. Effective January 1994, meeting fees have been
increased to the following: board meetings, $1,300; committee meetings attended
by members, $1,000; committee meetings attended by the committee chair, $1,500.
Mr. Herbert, Chairman of the Board of the Company, has announced his
retirement, effective March 31, 1994, as an executive officer and employee of
the Company. Mr. Herbert will continue to serve in the capacity of Chairman of
the Board and will provide ongoing advisory services to Allergan focusing on
government affairs and industry relations. For these advisory services and his
services as Chairman, he will receive an annual retainer of $150,000. He will
also be paid attendance fees as described above, receive grants of restricted
stock under the 1989 Nonemployee Director Stock Plan and be eligible to
participate in the Deferred Directors Fee Program, both as described below.
In 1991, the Company adopted a Deferred Directors Fee Program that permits
directors to defer all or a portion of their retainers and meeting fees until
termination of their status as a director. Deferred amounts are treated as
having been invested in Common Stock of the Company and thus are valued
according to fluctuations in the market price of the Common Stock. Distributions
will be made in cash only. Messrs. Evans, Grant, Greene, Kermes, McCraw, Rosso
and Wendt chose to defer all or a portion of their retainers and meeting fees
for the period January 1, 1993 through December 31, 1993. Ms. Erickson and Mr.
Schaeffer have elected to participate in the program beginning in 1994.
In accordance with the Company's 1989 Nonemployee Director Stock Plan (the
"Director Plan"), each director who is not an employee of the Company receives
1,000 shares of restricted stock upon initial election to the Board of Directors
for a three year term, or a pro rata share if the election is for a shorter
period. Thereafter the award is 700 shares upon such director's re-election to
the Board. All such restricted stock grants vest at the rate of 33 1/3% per year
assuming the director held office for a full three year term. In the event that
an individual ceases to serve as a director prior to full vesting of a
restricted stock grant for reasons other than death, disability or normal
retirement those shares not then vested will be returned to the Company
6
<PAGE> 10
without payment of any consideration to the director. The Director Plan provides
that the number of shares available for issuance under the Director Plan shall
be adjusted in the event of certain changes in capitalization, such as stock
splits and stock dividends.
The Board has approved amendments to the Director Plan to provide that
grants of restricted stock upon (a) initial election to the Board be 500 shares
per year for each year, including a partial year of the term to be served, to a
maximum of three years and (b) reelection to the Board be 500 shares per year
for each of the three years of the new term. The amendments do not become
effective unless approved by the stockholders at this meeting. The proposed
amendments are described in greater detail beginning on page 24.
OTHER MATTERS
In June 1992, the Company entered into a joint venture with Ligand
Pharmaceuticals Incorporated ("Ligand") for the research and development and
commercial exploitation of pharmaceutical products based on retinoid technology.
Each company agreed to contribute $15 million to the venture over three years.
Allergan Pharmaceuticals (Ireland) Ltd., Inc. also purchased, in conjunction
with the formation of the joint venture and thereafter, an approximately 14.7%
equity interest in Ligand for approximately $24 million, including the exercise
of warrants in 1993. William C. Shepherd, President and CEO of the Company,
became a director of Ligand shortly after the formation of the joint venture.
COMPLIANCE WITH SEC REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's
executive officers, directors and persons who own more than ten percent of a
registered class of the Company's equity securities to file reports of ownership
and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and
the New York Stock Exchange. Executive officers, directors and greater than
ten-percent stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company
with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms furnished to the
Company and written representations that no other reports were required during
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1993, all Section 16(a) filing requirements
applicable to its officers, directors and greater than ten-percent beneficial
owners were complied with except that Michael J. Donohoe filed his Form 3 upon
becoming an executive officer in a timely manner but inadvertently omitted to
report 290 shares held directly and 100 shares held by a trust in which Mr.
Donohoe is co-trustee and has a pecuniary interest. He subsequently corrected
his prior reports.

(1) All options disclosed above were granted pursuant to the 1989 Incentive
Compensation Plan (the "Incentive Plan") on April 27, 1993 and become
exercisable 25% per year beginning April 27, 1994. The exercise price and
the tax withholding obligations related to exercise may be paid by delivery
of already-owned shares. The Incentive Plan grants broad discretion to
change material terms, including the acceleration of vesting upon a "Change
in Control." See "Change in Control Arrangements" on page 14.
(2) Based on the Black-Scholes model of option valuation to determine grant date
present value. The actual value, if any, an executive may realize will
depend on the excess of the stock price over the exercise price on the date
the option is exercised, so that there is no assurance the value realized by
an executive will be at or near the value estimated by the Black-Scholes
model. With respect to the 1993 option grants, the following assumptions
were used in the Black-Scholes model: market price of stock, $23.34;
exercise

price of option, $23.34; stock volatility, .239 (based on two-year
volatility and dividend yield); annualized risk-free interest rate, 6.00%;

DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS
The Company has established a defined benefit retirement plan as a
successor to the pension benefit obligations of the retirement plan of its
former parent company, SmithKline Beckman Corporation ("SKB") with respect to
Allergan employees. Allergan became an independent, publicly-held company as a
result of a spinoff distribution by SKB in 1989 (the "Spinoff Distribution").
The Allergan plan, into which certain assets of the SKB plan were transferred in
conjunction with the Spinoff Distribution, provides pension benefits to
employees, including officers, based upon the average of the highest 60
consecutive months of eligible earnings ("Final Average Pay") and years of
service integrated with covered compensation as defined by the Social Security
Administration.

<PAGE> 17
Allergan has also established two supplemental retirement plans ("SRP") for
employees, including officers. These plans pay benefits directly to a
participant to the extent benefits under the Pension Plan are limited by certain
Internal Revenue Code provisions.
The following table illustrates the annual combined retirement benefits
payable under the retirement plans based on an age 62 retirement. If an employee
elects a benefit for his or her surviving spouse, the retirement benefit for the
employee is reduced to reflect this additional coverage.

Eligible earnings include basic salary and bonuses earned during the year.
Unreduced benefits are payable at age 62, but employees may continue employment
beyond then and earn additional retirement benefits. Credited years of service
at normal retirement for the individuals named in the compensation table would
be as follows: Mr. Shepherd, 34 years; Mr. Herbert, 45 years; Mr. Haugen, 35
years; Mr. Donohoe, 18 years; and Dr. Kaplan, 29 years.
CHANGE IN CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS
The Company has entered into agreements with each of its executive officers
and certain other officers which provide certain benefits in the event of a
change in control of the Company. A "change in control" of the Company is
defined as, in general, the acquisition by any person of beneficial ownership of
20% or more of the voting stock of the Company, certain business combinations
involving the Company or a change in a majority of the incumbent members of the
Board of Directors, except for changes in the majority of such members approved
by such members. If, within two years after a change in control, the Company or,
in certain circumstances, the executive, terminates his or her employment, the
executive is entitled to a severance payment equal to one, two or three
(depending on the executive in question) times (i) such executive's highest
annual salary within the five-year period preceding termination plus (ii) a
bonus increment equal to the average of the two highest of the last five bonuses
paid to such executive under the Company's Management Bonus Plan. In addition,
the executive is entitled to the continuation of all employment benefits for a
one-, two-or three-year period (depending on the executive in question), the
vesting of all stock options and certain other benefits, including payment of an
amount sufficient to offset any "excess parachute payment" excise tax payable by
the executive pursuant to the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or any
comparable provision of state law. The multiple of salary and bonus (as
calculated above) and the number of years of continued coverage of other
benefits are as follows: Messrs. Herbert, Shepherd and Haugen -- three
14
<PAGE> 18
years; Messrs. Kaplan and Donohoe, and the other nine executive officers -- two
years; other covered officers (25 persons) -- one year.
In addition, the Company's SRP, Incentive Plan, Savings and Investment
Plan, Employee Stock Ownership Plan and Nonemployee Director Stock Plan each
contain provisions for the accelerated vesting of benefits under such plans upon
a change in control of the Company. For such purposes a change in control is
deemed to occur upon the acquisition by any person of 50% or more of the
combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding voting securities, a
change in composition of a majority of the Board of Directors unless approved by
incumbent directors, and certain other acquisition related events.
REPORT OF THE ORGANIZATION AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
As members of the Organization and Compensation Committee, it is our duty,
pursuant to our charter to: administer the Company's Management Bonus Plan and
the 1989 Incentive Compensation Plan, review and adjust base compensation
levels, evaluate performance, and consider and approve management succession for
corporate officers.
Allergan's executive compensation programs are designed to attract,
motivate, and retain the executive talent needed to optimize shareholder value
in a competitive environment. The programs support the goal of increasing
shareholder value of the Company by achieving specific financial and strategic
objectives.
Allergan's executive compensation programs are designed to provide:
- levels of base compensation that are competitive with comparable
pharmaceutical and diversified health care companies;
- annual incentive compensation that varies in a consistent and predictable
manner with achievement of the financial performance objectives of the
Company; and
- long-term incentive compensation that focuses executive efforts on
building shareholder value through meeting longer-term financial and
strategic goals.
In designing and administering its executive compensation program, the
Company attempts to strike an appropriate balance among these various elements,
each of which is discussed in greater detail below.
BASE SALARY
Base salary, as well as bonus, is targeted at the 50th percentile level,
consistent with comparable pharmaceutical and diversified health care companies.
The Company's Compensation Department, in an effort to obtain a broad base of
data, participates in a number of salary surveys and obtains commercially
available surveys. In conducting its analysis, the Company attempts, when data
is available, to include data from companies included in the S&P Health Care
(Diversified) Index, the S&P Health Care (Drugs) Index and other S&P Health Care
indices, as well as from companies subjectively considered comparable based on
such factors as size, product lines, employment levels and market
capitalization. Allergan's salary increase program is designed to reward
individual performance consistent with the Company's overall financial
performance in the context of competitive practice. Annual performance reviews
and formal merit increase guidelines determine individual salary increases.
15
<PAGE> 19
THE MANAGEMENT BONUS PLAN
The Management Bonus Plan is designed to reward management-level employees
for their contributions to corporate and individual objectives. Each eligible
employee's award is expressed as a percentage of the participant's December 31,
1993 base salary. Bonus targets begin at 10% for managers and range from 30% to
60% for executive officers, it being the Committee's compensation philosophy
that increasing portions of compensation should be "at risk" for those employees
with greater influence on shareholder value. Individual performance is measured
against objectives that reflect what executives must do in order for Allergan to
meet its short-and long-term business goals. A participant's individual bonus
target award may be modified from 0% to 150%. In general, each eligible employee
sets for himself or herself a number of objectives for the coming year and then
submits a self-assessment of performance against these objectives as a part of
the year-end compensation review process. This information (or summaries
thereof) is generally considered by the Committee in a subjective evaluation of
overall performance of the executive officers for purposes of determining the
actual bonus.
Organizational objectives are measured in terms related to Allergan's
increase in shareholder value: cash flow return on investment (CFROI), sales
growth over the prior year, and operating margin objectives. The Committee
believes that these measures are primary determinants with the highest
historical correlation with share price. Targets based on organizational
objectives are established as part of the annual operating plan process which
includes a review of peer group company performance.
The bonus target is set at 100% when 100% of operating plan objectives for
CFROI, sales growth, and operating margin are achieved. The bonus award
guideline is highly leveraged with the possible percentage ranging from 0% to
200%, and is linked to company performance against the three measures. For 1993,
the Company's bonus award guideline percentage was 97%, with results in CFROI
and Operating Margin exceeding planned levels and sales growth below the planned
level.
The following illustrates the bonus determination process:

For bonus year 1993, the Committee approved a total bonus fund of $8.3
million for approximately 450 participating employees.
TOTAL ANNUAL CASH COMPENSATION (BASE SALARY PLUS BONUS)
Total cash compensation is set competitively at the 50th percentile, as
described in the section titled Base Salary above, when annual operating plans
and targets are achieved. Top-quartile cash compensation can be attained only if
business results significantly exceed the operating plan.

<PAGE> 20
INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN
The 1989 Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Incentive Plan") authorizes the
granting of various stock-based incentive awards to officers and key employees
of the Company and its subsidiaries. The plan has been designed to:
- link management's financial success to that of the shareholders via
broad-based participation of Allergan management employees (approximately
460 managers received grants in 1993);
- focus attention on building shareholder value through meeting longer-term
financial and strategic goals;
- balance long-term with short-term decision making; and
- encourage and create ownership and retention of the Company's stock.
COMMITTEE ACTIVITIES
In 1993, the Committee had six formal meetings as well as many interim
discussions. The following summarizes the Committee's major activities:
- Approved the 1993 Executive Salary Plan. This plan sets the salary
grades, ranges, and target bonus percentages based on competitive
information from comparable pharmaceutical and diversified health care
companies.
- Reviewed and determined 1993 salary increases for each corporate officer
based on their performance.
- Determined 1992 management bonus awards for corporate officers based on
assessment of their performance against objectives. Approved the 1993
Management Bonus Plan's corporate financial objectives.
- Reviewed and recommended 1993 stock awards for executive officers as well
as for approximately 450 other participants.
- Recommended the election of 1993 corporate officers and the designation
of executive officers covered under section 16 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934.
- Reviewed and approved executive stock ownership guidelines. The Chairman
and the President and CEO are each expected to hold three times their
salary in Company stock; the guideline for the Executive Vice President
and COO is two times his salary; and the guideline for corporate vice
presidents is one time salary.
- Considered the limitation on the deductibility of executive compensation
under section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended by the
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993. The Committee believes that
the Incentive Plan is likely to be able to meet the requirements to
permit exemption from the limitation. The Committee will consider various
alternatives to preserving the deductibility of payments under the
Management Bonus Plan to the extent reasonably practicable and to the
extent consistent with its other compensation objectives.
The Company, with the approval of the Committee, has retained the services
of Towers Perrin, a Human Resources consulting firm, since 1989 to provide
advice and review the reasonableness of compensation paid to executive officers
of the Company. As part of its services, Towers Perrin reviewed and, as
appropriate, provided recommendations with respect to the 1993 Executive Salary
Plan and Stock Award Guidelines.
17
<PAGE> 21
SALARY INCREASES
The CEO received an increase of 9.6% effective February 1, 1994, reflecting
the Committee's assessment of Mr. Shepherd's 1993 performance when evaluated
against the objectives established for the year. Of particular noteworthiness
were his outstanding accomplishments above and beyond normal CEO
responsibilities. He successfully integrated the new management team concept in
a very difficult health care environment, recruited six key executives,
completed key joint ventures, the licensing and co-marketing of several products
and maintained the momentum on R&D programs successfully. He also concluded the
sale of the international contact lens business. The Committee, in setting Mr.
Shepherd's increase, also took into consideration the fact that Mr. Shepherd's
salary is below the midpoint for his salary grade, owing in large measure to the
relatively short time he has served as CEO. During 1993, Mr. Shepherd's base
salary was 86% of the targeted level for his salary grade.
Other executive officers received an average increase of 6.8% effective
February 1, 1994 to reflect performance that was generally above average, thus
enabling the Company to achieve excellent results considering market conditions.
During 1993, salaries for the other named executive officers averaged 84% of the
targeted levels for their salary grades.
MANAGEMENT BONUS PLAN AWARDS
At the January 1994 meeting, the Committee approved bonus awards for
executive officers. All of these awards were within the terms of the Management
Bonus Plan.
The CEO received a Management Bonus Plan award of $320,000, based on the
Committee's assessment of Mr. Shepherd's performance and Allergan's 1993
corporate financial results. For purposes of compensation decisions, the
Company's performance is measured under the Management Bonus Plan against goals
established prior to the start of the fiscal year.
In the case of Mr. Shepherd, the Committee was influenced by the same
business factors discussed above in connection with his salary increase. In the
case of each of the other named executives, the Committee was influenced by the
achievements that enabled their respective business units to reach their
financial and strategic goals.
LONG-TERM INCENTIVE GRANTS
At the April 1993 meeting, the Committee considered long-term incentive
grants for each of the executive officers of the Company. The guidelines for
each grade level are set periodically based upon a comparison of Allergan to
survey data for over 200 companies prepared and analyzed by Towers Perrin in
order to approximate 75th percentile level compensation if the Company is
successful and that success results in increased stock prices. Information with
respect to previous grants is available to the Committee and is considered as
appropriate.
The CEO received 61,000 non-qualified stock options, which was equal to the
guideline amount previously set for the position. The Committee was influenced
by, among other things, the Company's performance, continued progress in
divesting non-core businesses and the continued smooth transition of leadership
responsibilities from Mr. Herbert to Mr. Shepherd.
In the case of each of the other named executives, the stock award was
within the Company's guideline and reflects the assessment of individual
performance as well as the performance of the Company as discussed in the
previous paragraph. In determining the specific award to the CEO and each of the
other named
18
<PAGE> 22
executives, the Committee considers a mix of individual and corporate
performance achievements, without attributing relative weights to the various
factors considered.
No member of the Organization and Compensation Committee is a former or
current officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

STOCK PERFORMANCE GRAPH
Set forth below is a line graph comparing the yearly percentage change in
the cumulative total stockholder return on the Company's Common Stock with the
cumulative total return of the S&P 500 Stock Index, the S&P Health Care (Drugs)
Index and the S&P Health Care (Diversified) Index for the period beginning July
27, 1989 (the date of the Spinoff Distribution) and ending December 31, 1993.
The graph assumes that all dividends have been reinvested. The Company has
selected the S&P Health Care (Diversified) Index to use in this Proxy Statement,
based on its belief that such S&P Health Care (Diversified) Index more
accurately reflects the Company's peers when considering such factors as product
mix than the index previously used, the S&P Health Care (Drugs) Index. Both
indexes are shown in the graph.

AMENDMENT AND CONTINUATION OF THE STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN
PROPOSAL 2
The Company's Stockholder Rights Plan (the "Plan") was adopted in 1989 in
an effort to protect stockholders from unfair attempts to acquire the Company,
including the use of abusive takeover tactics, and to improve the Board of
Directors' ability to negotiate on behalf of all stockholders in the event a
takeover proposal was made.
The Board of Directors, upon recommendation of the Company's management,
has undertaken a detailed review of the Plan, with the participation of
institutional stockholders and outside legal and financial advisors. As a result
of the review, the Board of Directors, at its September 1993 meeting, approved
amendments to the Plan to strengthen the stockholders' ultimate control over the
Plan. The review was undertaken in response to concerns expressed by certain
institutional stockholders of the Company relating to the effect of stockholder
rights plans generally in not permitting stockholders to sufficiently influence
decisions which directly and materially affect their status as stockholders, and
in light of a general decline recently in the level of takeover activity and,
particularly, in the number of attempted hostile takeovers employing coercive
tactics.
The Board of Directors also determined that, in order to continue in
effect, the Plan as amended must be approved by the affirmative vote of a
majority of the shares present and voting at the meeting. The Board of Directors
recommends that the Stockholders vote for this Proposal to continue in effect
the Plan as now amended.
AMENDMENTS TO THE PLAN
Specifically, the amendments to the Plan adopted by the Board of Directors
(the "Amendments") provide for the following:
Stockholder Referendum. Prior to adoption of the Amendments,
redemption of the rights issued under the Plan (the "Rights") was solely
within the discretion of the Board of Directors. Pursuant to the
Amendments, redemption of the Rights (and, accordingly, the elimination of
the Plan) will be submitted to a binding stockholder vote if an offer for
all outstanding shares meeting certain conditions is made and within 60
days thereafter the Board of Directors has not either redeemed the Rights
or approved a financially superior alternative transaction. The Board must
redeem the Rights if holders of a majority of the Company's then
outstanding voting shares vote to request such redemption to allow the
completion of that offer or a financially superior offer. Thus, regardless
of the Board of Directors' position, the stockholders can cause the
redemption of the Rights to allow completion of an offer meeting the
specified conditions.
The specified conditions are (i) that the offer must be for all
outstanding common shares at the same price, (ii) if an offer all or
partially for a cash consideration, that the offer must be fully financed,
(iii) if an offer all or partially for non-cash consideration, that such
consideration must be New York Stock Exchange-listed securities and that
the offer will provide tax-deferred treatment for stockholders, and (iv)
that the offer is not subject to financing, funding or due diligence
conditions.
Term of Plan. Prior to adoption of the Amendments, the Plan was
scheduled to expire in 1999. Pursuant to the Amendments, the Plan will now
expire at the Company's annual meeting of stockholders in 1997 unless
holders of a majority of the votes cast at the 1997 annual meeting of
stockholders vote affirmatively to extend the term of the Plan. If the
stockholders approve the extension at the 1997 annual
21
<PAGE> 25
meeting of stockholders, the Plan will expire (without redemption of the
Rights) at the 2000 annual meeting of stockholders.
OTHER MATERIAL TERMS OF THE PLAN
Pursuant to the Plan, in 1989 the Board of Directors declared a dividend
distribution of one right (a "Right") for each outstanding share of Common Stock
of the Company. Each right entitles a holder to purchase one one-hundredth of a
share of Series A Participating Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $115,
subject to adjustment. The Rights do not become exercisable or transferable
apart from the Common Stock until the earlier of (i) any person or group
becoming the beneficial owner of 20% or more of the voting power of the
outstanding voting securities of the Company ("Acquiring Person") other than an
employee benefit plan of the Company or pursuant to a "permitted offer" (i.e.,
an offer for all outstanding shares at a price and terms determined by a
majority of the independent directors to be adequate and in the best interests
of the Company and its stockholders), and (ii) ten days after the commencement
of a tender or exchange offer which would result in any person or group becoming
an Acquiring Person.
If any person or group becomes a 20% or more beneficial owner of Company
voting securities, except pursuant to a "permitted offer," then each Rightholder
(other than the Acquiring Person and related persons) will be entitled to
receive upon exercise Common Stock (or, in certain circumstances, other
consideration) having a value equal to two times the exercise price of the
Right. If, after the Rights have become exercisable, the Company is acquired in
a merger or other business combination in which the Company is not the surviving
corporation or in which 50% or more of the assets or earning power is sold, each
Rightholder (other than the Acquiring Person and related persons) will then be
entitled to receive, upon exercise, common stock of the acquiring company having
a value of two times the exercise price of the Right.
STOCKHOLDER VOTE ON THE PLAN
The Board is not required by law to submit any of the amendments to the
Plan to a stockholder vote. However, the Board has determined that, since the
Plan is intended to protect stockholders' interests, it is appropriate that the
Plan (as amended) will expire unless the stockholders approve its continuation
at this meeting.
Accordingly, if the Plan (as amended) is approved by the affirmative vote
of a majority of the votes cast at the Meeting, the Plan (as amended) will
continue in effect until the annual meeting of stockholders in 1997. If the Plan
(as amended) is not approved by such vote, the Plan (as amended) will, by its
terms, automatically expire (without any redemption of Rights), and the Plan
will be of no further force and effect.
ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF THE PLAN
The Board of Directors believes that the Plan, as it has been amended,
continues to meet the primary objectives which originally caused the Board to
adopt the Plan. In addition, the Plan now places significant control of the use
of the Plan in stockholders' hands, thereby addressing a corporate governance
issue which has been raised by some stockholders, namely the right of
stockholders to influence decisions directly and materially affecting them such
as a change of control transaction.
The Board of Directors continues to be concerned that certain takeovers
could be undesirable and deprive stockholders of the long-term value of their
stock. The Plan continues to be designed to discourage takeovers and takeover
proposals that use abusive tactics, do not provide for adequate payments to
stockholders for their stock, or enable an offeror to obtain effective control
of the Company, but less than all of the Company's stock,
22
<PAGE> 26
without offering all stockholders the opportunity to receive the long-term value
for all of their stock. The Plan also continues to be intended to increase the
negotiating position of the Board for the benefit of the stockholders in the
event a takeover proposal is made.
The Board of Directors believes that the concerns underlying these
objectives are of particular import for a company in the pharmaceutical
business, which is research and development intensive. Since bidders likely
would not be able to fully analyze and value the research and development
component of the Company's business in the short 20 business-day time frame
provided for tender offers under federal law, the Board believes that a bidder
would be likely to undervalue the Company, depriving stockholders of the
opportunity to receive the maximum price for their shares.
The amendments to the Plan are intended to be responsive to the perceived
desire of the Company's stockholders to have more control over the use of the
Plan in meeting the objectives described above. Although the stockholder
referendum procedure described above neither requires the Board of Directors to
approve or recommend any offer to acquire the Company, nor precludes the Board
from pursuing or recommending alternatives to any offer, it does provide for the
stockholders, with the requisite vote, to eliminate the impediments caused by
the existence of the Rights for an offer meeting the specified conditions. The
Board believes that offers meeting the conditions (essentially, fully-financed
offers for all outstanding shares) avoid several of the concerns the Plan is
designed to protect against. The Board also believes that, although such an
offer may not necessarily reflect the long-term value of the Company's stock,
the stockholders should be able to determine for themselves whether they wish to
avail themselves of the protection of the Rights in those circumstances.
As in the case of the Plan prior to the Amendments, the Plan may discourage
certain mergers, tender offers or other purchases of the Company's stock and
certain proxy contests which some or even a majority of stockholders would deem
to be advantageous. The Plan may also discourage the accumulation of substantial
investments in the Company by stockholders who do not intend to effect a change
of control of the Company. By deterring possible changes in control, the Board
of Directors and management may thus benefit from a more secure tenure. The
Board of Directors does not believe that the potential disadvantage outweighs
the benefits of the Plan.
In the view of the Board of Directors there is no provision contained in
the Company's Certificate of Incorporation nor in any law applicable to the
Company which affords the protection provided by the Plan in assuring that the
Board of Directors can negotiate with a bidder on the stockholders' behalf, nor
which provides the protection afforded by the Plan against a person or group
accumulating a substantial stock position and then making a bid at an inadequate
price (effectively blocking other potential buyers who would be willing to pay
higher prices), taking control of the Company through a proxy contest (with no
payment at all to stockholders), or taking certain other actions detrimental to
the stockholders.
IT IS, THEREFORE, RECOMMENDED THAT THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL.
If the Proposal is approved, the Plan as amended will remain in effect. If the
Proposal is not approved, the Plan as amended will terminate (without redemption
of the Rights) and will be of no further force or effect.
A copy of the Plan, as amended, is available upon request from the Company,
free of charge. The foregoing discussion is qualified in all respects by
reference to the full text of the amended Plan.

AMENDMENT OF THE 1989 NONEMPLOYEE DIRECTOR STOCK PLAN
PROPOSAL 3
The Company seeks stockholder approval of amendments to its 1989
Nonemployee Director Stock Plan (the "Director Plan") which will change the
formula pursuant to which automatic grants of restricted stock are awarded to
nonemployee directors under the Director Plan, and implement certain other
changes as discussed below.
Currently, the Director Plan provides for (i) an automatic grant of 1,000
shares of restricted stock to each nonemployee director upon initial election to
the Board of Directors for a three-year term (or a lesser amount prorated
monthly if the initial election is for a shorter period) and (ii) an additional
automatic grant of 700 shares of restricted stock upon such director's
re-election to the Board. Generally, such restricted stock grants vest at a rate
of 33 1/3% per year assuming the director holds office for a full three-year
term (prorated monthly for partial years). At such time as an individual ceases
to serve as a director (for any reason other than death, disability or
retirement), any then unvested restricted shares will be returned to the Company
without payment of any consideration to the director.
If approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present and
voting at the meeting, the proposed amendments to the Director Plan will
implement the following changes effective as of the date of the 1994 annual
meeting of stockholders:
- The number of shares of restricted stock which will be awarded to each
nonemployee director upon initial election or appointment as well as upon
each subsequent re-election will be 500 shares multiplied by the number
of years, including any partial year as a full year for this purpose, of
the applicable term of office to be served. For example, each of the
Class II nominees who are non-employees will receive, if elected, an
automatic grant of 1,500 shares under this proposed amendment.
- Grants of restricted stock made on and after such annual meeting will
vest in equal installments of 500 shares as of the date of each
subsequent regular annual meeting of stockholders at which any directors
are to be elected.
- Certain provisions of the Director Plan will also be amended to delete
provisions which could (if applicable) cause acceleration of vesting upon
retirement from the Board. Since the Company currently does not have a
retirement age policy for its nonemployee directors, mandatory or
otherwise, this change to the Director Plan is intended to conform the
Director Plan to actual current practice. As a result, only death,
disability or a change in control (as discussed more fully below) will
result in acceleration of vesting.
The primary purpose of the proposed amendments to the Director Plan is to
increase the number of shares included in the automatic grants to nonemployee
directors in order to keep the total package of nonemployee director
compensation competitive with comparable publicly-traded companies. The other
changes being proposed are intended to simplify administration of the Director
Plan. IT IS, THEREFORE, RECOMMENDED THAT THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL.
The following is a summary of the Director Plan as proposed to be amended.
The full text of the Director Plan (as proposed to be amended) is attached as
Exhibit A, and the following summary, together with the preceding discussion of
the proposed amendments, is qualified in its entirety by reference to such
Exhibit A.
The Director Plan was originally approved and adopted in 1989 by the
Company's Board of Directors and then sole stockholder, SmithKline Beckman
Corporation. Under the Plan, up to 50,000 shares of common
24
<PAGE> 28
stock of the Company may be issued through periodic automatic grants of
restricted stock to nonemployee directors only. The purposes of the Director
Plan are to enable the Company to attract and retain the services of experienced
and knowledgeable nonemployee directors and to further align their interests
with those of the stockholders by providing for or increasing the proprietary
interests of such directors in the Company. To date, 14,527 shares have been
awarded to nonemployee directors under the Director Plan. The shares issuable
under the Director Plan may be newly-issued or treasury shares (including those
acquired by the Company in the open market). The Director Plan provides that
proportionate adjustment will be made to the maximum number of shares authorized
under the Director Plan and, to the extent appropriate, to other aspects of
existing or future awards in the event of a stock split, recapitalization or
similar event.
The shares awarded under the Director Plan are subject to restrictions on
transferability as well as the vesting schedule described above. In the event
that a recipient of a restricted stock award under the Director Plan ceases to
be a director of the Company for any reason other than death or total
disability, any shares which are then unvested shall be subject to forfeiture
back to the Company. Once vested, the shares are no longer restricted as to
transferability and no longer subject to forfeiture to the Company upon
termination of director status. Upon death or total disability of a nonemployee
director, or in the event of a "change in control" of the Company, all unvested
shares will be deemed vested. A "change of control" for this purpose occurs if
(i) any person or group becomes the beneficial owner of 50% or more of the
Company's outstanding voting securities, (ii) a change occurs in the majority of
the incumbent directors (except for changes approved by such members), (iii) a
merger or other business combination involving the Company is approved by
stockholders (other than a merger or other transaction in which (A) the
Company's stockholders as of immediately prior to such transaction would
continue to own 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company
or successor after the transaction is consummated and (B) no person or group
becomes a 50% or more beneficial owner of Company voting securities), or (iv) a
plan of complete liquidation or the sale of all or substantially all of the
Company's assets is approved by stockholders.
The Company does not receive any consideration upon grant or vesting of
restricted stock awards. Recipients of restricted stock awards are, unless
forfeited pursuant to the terms of the Plan, entitled to vote and to receive
dividends on the shares subject to the award from the original grant date
through the vesting date (at which time the recipient receives unrestricted
ownership of the shares).
Under existing federal income tax provisions, a director who receives
shares of restricted stock under the Director Plan which are subject to
restrictions which create a "substantial risk of forfeiture" (within the meaning
of section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code) will not normally realize any
income, nor will the Company normally receive any deduction for federal income
tax purposes, in the year of the grant or award. Such director will normally
realize taxable income on the date the shares become transferable or no longer
subject to substantial risk of forfeiture or on the date of their earlier
disposition. The amount of such taxable income will be equal to the amount by
which the fair market value of the shares of common stock on the date such
restrictions lapse (or any earlier date on which the shares become transferable
or are disposed of) exceeds their purchase price, if any. A director may elect,
however, to include in income in the year of grant the excess of the fair market
value of the shares of Common Stock (without regard to any restrictions) on the
date of grant. If this election is made, the director will ordinarily not be
entitled to recognize any loss thereafter attributable to the shares as a result
of forfeiture. The foregoing is a brief summary of certain federal income tax
consequences associated with restricted stock grants under the Director Plan.
This summary does not purport to be a complete statement of the law and does not
cover tax consequences under foreign, state or local laws.
25
<PAGE> 29
The Director Plan is intended to be a nondiscretionary plan for purposes of
rules and interpretations of the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to
Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Subject to the
provisions of the Director Plan, including the automatic nature of awards
thereunder, administrative authority with respect to the Plan is vested in the
Board of Directors, and may be delegated to a committee of the Board consisting
of persons ineligible to receive awards under the Director Plan. No such
committee has been appointed. The Board may at any time amend, suspend or
terminate the Director Plan provided that (I) no such action shall deprive the
recipient of an award under the Plan of such award without the consent of such
recipient and (II) stockholder approval is necessary to increase the maximum
number of shares authorized under the Plan, to accelerate vesting, to extend the
duration of the Plan, to materially modify eligibility criteria, or to
materially increase benefits accruing to recipients of awards under the Plan.
Unless sooner terminated, the Director Plan will terminate, as to the authority
to grant new awards, on December 31, 1999.
The table below summarizes certain information with respect to restricted
stock awards under the Director Plan:

The information in the table above reflects only the number of restricted
shares which will be automatically awarded to the three nonemployee directors
who are Class II nominees for election at the 1994 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders. Future awards to other nonemployee directors will be made if and

appointed to serve as a director (whether to fill a vacancy created by an
increase in the size of the Board or by resignation or other termination of
director status) during 1994 or any subsequent year will also be entitled to an
automatic grant of restricted stock under the Director Plan.
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
KPMG Peat Marwick, independent auditors, audited the consolidated financial
statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1993.
Representatives of KPMG Peat Marwick are expected to be present at the

II. GRANTS OF RESTRICTED STOCK
2.1 Restricted Stock Awards -- Pre-1994.
(a) Immediately following the effective date of this Plan (as
determined pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof), each Nonemployee Director who
is then serving as a member of the Board of Directors shall automatically
be granted an Award consisting of a number of shares of Restricted Stock
(rounded to the nearest whole number of shares) equal to 1,000 multiplied
by the Applicable Service Fraction (as defined in Paragraph (e) below) with
respect to such Nonemployee Director determined as of the effective date of
this Plan.
(b) Thereafter, each Nonemployee Director who is newly appointed or
elected to the Board for a full term of three years shall automatically be
granted an award consisting of 1,000 shares of Restricted Stock at the time
such Nonemployee Director first joins the Board. Such Award shall be made
on the first business day following the date of the regular annual meeting
of stockholders of the Company, or any adjournment thereof, at which
directors are elected.
(c) Each Nonemployee Director who is appointed or elected to fulfill a
term of less than three years (whether by replacing a director who retires,
resigns or otherwise terminates his service as a director prior to the
expiration of this term or otherwise) shall automatically be granted an
Award consisting of a number of shares of Restricted Stock (rounded to the
nearest whole number of shares) equal to 1,000 multiplied by the Applicable
Service Fraction with respect to such Nonemployee Director determined as of
the date of such Nonemployee Director's appointment or election to the
Board. Such Award shall be made as of the first business day following the
date of such Nonemployee Director's appointment or election to the Board.
(d) Each Nonemployee Director who is re-elected (or, in the case of a
Nonemployee Director who was appointed to the Board and received an Award
pursuant to any of the preceding provisions of this Section 2.1 (an
"Appointed Director"), elected) to the Board for a full term of three years
shall
A-3
<PAGE> 34
automatically be granted an Award consisting of 700 shares of Restricted
Stock at the time of such Nonemployee Director's re-election (or, in the
case of an Appointed Director, election) to the Board. Such Award shall be
made on the first business day following the date of the annual meeting of
stockholders of the Company, or any adjournment thereof, at which directors
of the Company are elected.
(e) As used herein, "Applicable Service Fraction" means, with respect
to any Nonemployee Director, a fraction the numerator of which is the
number of months remaining in such Nonemployee Director's term at the time
the Applicable Service Fraction is to be determined pursuant hereto and the
denominator of which is 36.
2.2 Purchase Price. Participants under the Plan shall not be required to
pay any purchase price for the shares of Common Stock to be acquired pursuant to
an Award, unless otherwise required under applicable law or regulations for the
issuance of shares of Common Stock which are nontransferable and subject to a
substantial risk of forfeiture until specific conditions are met. If so
required, the price at which shares of Common Stock shall be sold to
Participants under this Plan pursuant to an Award shall be the minimum purchase
price required in such law or regulations, as determined by the Board in the
exercise of its sole discretion.
2.3 Terms of Payment. The purchase price, if any, of shares of Common
Stock sold by the Company hereunder shall be payable by the Participant in cash
at the time such Award is granted.
2.4 Restricted Stock Awards -- 1994 and After. Effective as of immediately
prior to the 1994 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company:
(a) No new Awards shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Section
2.1.
(b) Upon election, re-election or appointment of a Nonemployee
Director to the Board occurring at or after the 1994 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders, such Nonemployee Director shall automatically be granted an
Award consisting of the following number of shares of Restricted Stock: 500
multiplied by the number of years which remain in the term of the person so
elected, re-elected or appointed. For purposes of such calculation, a year
shall be the period between annual meetings of stockholders of the Company
or any part of such period (exclusive of the 60 days immediately preceding
the first annual meeting to be held following such election, re-election or
appointment giving rise to such Award). For example, if a Nonemployee
Director is appointed to the Board in January of 1995 to serve a term which
will expire at the 1997 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (and the 1995 Annual
Meeting of Stockholders is held more than 60 days after such appointment),
the term of such person would be considered to be three years for purposes
of calculating the Award.
(c) Awards automatically granted pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be
made on the first business day following the date of such election,
re-election or appointment, as applicable.
III. RESTRICTIONS ON GRANTED STOCK
3.1 Restrictions on Shares Issued. All shares of Common Stock granted
pursuant to an Award under this Plan shall be subject to the following
restrictions:
(a) The shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged,
hypothecated or otherwise disposed of, alienated or encumbered until the
restrictions set forth in Paragraph (b) below lapse and are removed as
provided in Paragraph (d) below, and any additional requirements or
restrictions set forth in or
A-4
<PAGE> 35
imposed pursuant to this Plan have been satisfied, terminated or expressly
waived by the Company in writing.
(b) In the event a Participant's service as a director of the Company
terminates for any reason other than death or total disability, all shares
of Common Stock acquired under this Plan by such Participant with respect
to which, at the date of such termination of service, the vesting
restrictions imposed under this Plan have not lapsed and been removed as
provided in Paragraph (d) below shall be returned to the Company forthwith,
and all rights of the Participant to such shares shall immediately
terminate upon payment by the Company to such Participant of the amount, if
any, that the Participant paid to the Company for such shares.
(c) In the event a Participant's service as a director of the Company
terminates because of death or total disability, the Participant shall not
be obligated to return any shares as described in Paragraph (b) above and,
except for any continuing and additional restrictions which may exist as
set forth in or imposed pursuant to this Plan, the vesting restrictions
imposed upon the shares of Common Stock acquired by such Participant under
this Plan shall lapse and be removed (and the shares of Common Stock
acquired by such Participant under Awards pursuant to the Plan shall vest)
upon such termination of service.
(d) The restrictions imposed under Paragraph (b) above shall lapse and
be removed (and the shares of Common Stock acquired by a Participant
pursuant to an Award shall vest) in accordance with the following rules:
(i) Subject to the provisions of Subparagraphs (iii) and (iv)
below, in the case of an Award granted pursuant to Paragraph (a) or (c)
of Section 2.1, as of the date of each regular annual meeting of
stockholders of the Company at which directors are to be elected
following the date of such Award, the vesting restrictions imposed under
this Plan shall lapse and be removed from such number of shares of
Restricted stock acquired pursuant to the Award as is required to cause
the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to such
Award with respect to which the vesting restrictions imposed pursuant to
this Plan have lapsed and been removed (and in which the Participant
shall be fully vested) to equal the number (rounded to the nearest whole
number of shares) computed by multiplying the total number of shares of
restricted Stock that were initially the subject of such Award by the
lesser of (A) one or (b) a fraction the numerator of which is the number
of months the Participant has served as a member of the Board of
Directors subsequent to the date upon which the Award was granted and
the denominator of which is the total number of months in the term of
such Nonemployee Director determined as of the date upon which the Award
was granted.
(ii) Subject to the provisions of Subparagraphs (iii) and (iv)
below, in the case of an Award pursuant to Paragraph (b) or (d) of
Section 2.1, as of the date of each regular annual meeting of
stockholders of the Company at which directors are to be elected
following the date of such Award, the vesting restrictions imposed
pursuant to this Plan shall lapse and be removed (and the Participant
shall be fully vested) with respect to one-third (rounded to the nearest
whole number) of the number of shares acquired by the Participant
pursuant to the Award, such that the restrictions shall lapse and be
removed (and the Participant shall be fully vested) with respect to all
of the shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to such Award as of
the date of the third such annual meeting of stockholders following the
date upon which the Award is granted.
(iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subparagraphs (i), (ii) and
(v) of this Section 3.1, in the event that a Participant's service as a
director of the Company terminates because of death or
A-5
<PAGE> 36
total disability, as of the date of such termination of service the
vesting restrictions imposed pursuant to this Plan shall lapse and be
removed (and the Participant shall be fully vested) with respect to all
shares of Common Stock acquired by such Participant under Awards
pursuant to this Plan.
(iv) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subparagraphs (i), (ii) and
(v) of this Section 3.1, in the event of a Change in Control, as of the
date of such Change in Control the vesting restrictions imposed pursuant
to this Plan shall lapse and be removed (and Participants shall be fully
vested) with respect to all shares of Common Stock acquired under Awards
pursuant to this Plan.
(v) Subject to the provisions of Subparagraphs (iii) and (iv) of
this Section 3.1, Awards made pursuant to Section 2.4, as of the date of
each annual meeting of stockholders following the date of such Award,
the vesting restrictions imposed pursuant to this Plan shall lapse and
be removed (and the Participant shall be fully vested) with respect to
500 of the shares covered by such Award.
3.2 Rights With Respect to Shares of Restricted Stock. A Nonemployee
Director to whom an Award has been made shall be notified of the Award, and upon
payment in full of the purchase price (if any) required for the shares of the
Restricted Stock, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued or transferred
to the name of the Nonemployee Director a certificate or certificates for the
number of shares of Restricted Stock granted, subject to the provisions of
Sections 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 below. From and after the date of the Award, the
Nonemployee Director shall be a Participant and shall have all rights of
ownership with respect to such shares of Restricted Stock, including the right
to vote and to receive dividends and other distributions with respect thereto,
subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions described in this Plan.
3.3 Custody of Stock Certificates. In order to enforce the restrictions
imposed upon shares of Restricted Stock pursuant to this Plan, the Board may
require that the certificates representing such shares of Restricted Stock
remain in the physical custody of the Company until any or all of the
restrictions imposed pursuant to the Plan expire or shall have been removed.
3.4 Legends on Stock Certificates. The Board shall cause such legend or
legends making reference to the restrictions imposed hereunder to be placed on
certificates representing shares of Common Stock which are subject to
restrictions hereunder as the Board deems necessary or appropriate in order to
enforce the restrictions imposed upon shares of Restricted Stock issued pursuant
to Awards granted hereunder.
3.5 Securities Law Requirements. Shares of Common Stock shall not be
offered or issued under this Plan unless the offer, issuance and delivery of
such shares shall comply with all applicable provisions of law, domestic or
foreign, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968, as amended, and the
requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Common Stock may then be
listed. As a condition precedent to the issuance of shares of Common Stock
pursuant to an Award, the Company may require the Participant to take any
reasonable action to comply with such requirements.
IV. ADJUSTMENT PROVISIONS
4.1 Adjustments. If the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the
Company are increased, decreased or exchanged for a different number or kind of
shares or other securities, or if additional shares or new or different shares
or other securities are distributed in respect of such shares of Common Stock
(or any stock or securities received with respect to such Common Stock), through
merger, consolidation, sale or exchange of all or substantially all of the
properties of the Company, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification,
stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off or other distribution
in respect of such
A-6
<PAGE> 37
shares of Common Stock (or any stock or securities received with respect to such
Common Stock), and appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made in (i)
the maximum number of securities provided in Section 1.3 of the Plan, (ii) the
number of shares to be included in each grant of Restricted Stock of the Plan;
(iii) the number and kind of shares then subject to restrictions pursuant to
Section 3.1 of the Plan, and (iv) the repurchase price, if any, for each share
of Common Stock subject to such restrictions. The Board's determination of the
adjustments required under this Section 4.1 shall be final, binding and
conclusive. No fractional interests shall be issued under the Plan on account of
any such adjustment.
V. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
5.1 Amendment, Suspension and Termination of Plan. The Board of Directors
may at any time amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan; provided, however, that
no such action shall deprive the holder of an Award of such Award without the
consent of such holder; and further provided that the nondiscretionary manner in
which Awards are made to Nonemployee Directors under Section 2.1 and Section 2.4
shall not be modified or amended (provided that the number of shares to be
included in each automatic grant thereunder may be changed with the approval of
the stockholders). Furthermore, no such amendment shall, without approval of the
stockholders of the Company, except as provided in Article IV hereof:
(a) increase the maximum number of shares specified in paragraph (a)
of Section 1.3;
(b) change the price of Common Stock specified in Section 2.2;

(d) accelerate the restriction-removal schedule specified in Paragraph
(d) of Section 3.1;
(e) extend the duration of the Plan;

Except as provided in Article IV, no termination, suspension or amendment
of this Plan may, without the consent of the holder thereof, affect Common Stock
previously acquired by a Participant pursuant to this Plan.
5.2 Effective Date and Duration of Plan. This Plan shall become effective
on the later of (a) the date of its approval by the Board of Directors of the
Company, (b) the date of its approval by the holders of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock (either by a vote of a majority of such outstanding shares
present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at a meeting of the
stockholders of the Company or by written consent), or (c) the date of the
distribution by SmithKline Beckman Corporation ("SKB") of the stock of the
Company pursuant to the terms of that certain Distribution Agreement, dated as
of April 11, 1989, among SKB, the Company and Beckman Instruments, Inc. Unless
previously terminated by the Board of Directors, this Plan shall terminate at
the close of business on December 31, 1999, and no Award may be granted under
the Plan thereafter, but such termination shall not affect any Award theretofore
granted and any shares of Common Stock granted pursuant thereto.
5.3 Additional Limitations on Common Stock. With respect to any shares of
Common Stock issued or transferred under any provisions of the Plan, such shares
may be issued or transferred subject to such conditions, in addition to those
specifically provided in the Plan as the Board may direct.
A-7
<PAGE> 38
5.4 Director Status. Nothing in this Plan or in any instrument executed
pursuant hereto shall confer upon any Nonemployee Director any right to continue
as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company or any subsidiary thereof
or shall interfere with or restrict the right of the Company or its stockholders
(or of a subsidiary or its stockholders, as the case may be) to terminate the
service of any Nonemployee Director at any time and for any reason whatsoever,
with or without good cause.
5.5 Securities Law Legends. In addition to any legend or legends pursuant
to Section 3.4 above, each certificate representing shares of Common Stock
issued under the Plan shall be endorsed with such legends as the Company may, in
its discretion, deem reasonably necessary or appropriate to comply with or give
notice of applicable federal and state securities laws.
5.6 No Entitlement to Shares. No Nonemployee Director (individually or as
a member of a group), and no beneficiary or other person claiming under or
through such Nonemployee Director, shall have any right, title, or interest in
or to any shares of Common Stock allocated or reserved for the purpose of the
Plan or subject to any Award except as to such shares of Common Stock, if any,
as shall have been issued or transferred to such Nonemployee Director. A
Nonemployee Director's rights to any shares of Common Stock issued or
transferred to the name of such Nonemployee Director pursuant to an Award under
this Plan shall be subject to such limitations and restrictions as are set forth
in or imposed pursuant to this Plan.
5.7 Withholding of Taxes. The Company may make such provisions as it deems
appropriate for the withholding by the Company of such amounts as the Company
determines it is required to withhold in connection with any Award. The Company
may require a Participant to satisfy any relevant tax requirements before
authorizing any issuance of Common Stock to such Participant. Any such
settlement shall be made in the form of cash, a certified or bank cashier's
check or such other form of consideration as is satisfactory to the Board.
5.8 Transferability. No award or right under this Plan, contingent or
otherwise, shall be assignable or otherwise transferable other than by will or
the laws of descent and distribution, or shall be subject to any encumbrance,
pledge or charge or any nature. Any Award shall be accepted during a
Participant's lifetime only by the Participant or the Participant's guardian or
other legal representative.
5.9 Other Plans. Nothing in this Plan is intended to be a substitute for,
or shall preclude or limit the establishment or continuation of, any other plan,
practice or arrangement for the payment of compensation or benefits to directors
generally, which the Company now has or may hereafter lawfully put into effect,
including, without limitation, any retirement, pension, insurance, stock
purchase, incentive compensation or bonus plan.
5.10 Invalid Provisions. In the event that any provision of this Plan
document is found to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable under any applicable
law, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not be construed as rendering any
other provisions contained herein invalid or unenforceable, and all such other
provisions shall be given full force and effect to the same extent as though the
invalid or unenforceable provision were not contained herein.
5.11 Singular, Plural; Gender. Whenever used herein, nouns in the singular
shall include the plural, and the masculine pronoun shall include the feminine
gender, as the context may require.
5.12 Applicable Law. This Plan shall be governed by, interpreted under,
