Explanatory Note
 
On February 20, 2015, we filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (the “Original Form 10-K”). This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends Part III, Items 10 through 14 of the Original Form 10-K to include information previously omitted from the Original Form 10-K in reliance on General Instruction G(3) to Form 10-K. General Instruction G(3) to Form 10-K provides that registrants may incorporate by reference certain information from a definitive proxy statement which involves the election of directors if such definitive proxy statement is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year. The Company no longer anticipates that its definitive proxy statement involving the election of directors will be filed within 120 days after the end of the Company’s fiscal year. Accordingly, all references to the incorporation by reference to portions of our definitive proxy statement into Part III of the Original Form 10-K are deleted by this Amendment. Part III of the Original Form 10-K is hereby amended and restated as set forth below. In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, new certifications by our principal executive officers and principal financial officer are filed as exhibits to this Amendment under Item 15 of Part IV hereof.
 
Except as stated herein, this Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 20, 2015 and no attempt has been made in this Amendment to modify or update other disclosures as presented in the Original Form 10-K. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Form 10-K and with our filings with the SEC subsequent to the Original Form 10-K.

Corporate Governance

During 2014, the Board met 16 times, the Compensation Committee met 14 times, the Audit Committee met 10 times and the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee met 9 times. All directors attended more than 75% of the total of all meetings of the Board and any committees on which they serve.

It is the policy of the Company to invite and encourage all members of the Board of Directors to attend the annual meeting of stockholders, which was held by remote communication. In 2014, five directors attended the Annual Meeting.

Director Legal Proceedings

During the past 10 years, no director, executive officer or nominee for our Board of Directors has been involved in any legal proceedings that are material to an evaluation of their ability or integrity to become our director or executive officer. During the past 10 years, no director, executive officer or nominee for our Board of Directors has had judicial or administrative proceedings resulting from involvement in mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; judicial or administrative proceedings based on violations of federal or state securities, commodities, banking, or insurance laws and regulations, or any settlement of such actions; or any disciplinary sanctions or orders imposed by stock, commodities, or derivatives exchanges or other self-regulatory organizations.

Board Leadership Structure

Vivek Jain is our CEO and Chairman of the Board. The Board of Directors believes that Mr. Jain is best situated to serve as Chairman of the Board based upon his significant leadership position with the Company and his extensive knowledge about the industry. In addition, the Board of Directors believes that Mr. Jain's combined roles as Chairman and CEO position him to effectively identify strategic priorities for the Company and to lead Board discussions on the execution of Company strategy. The Board of Directors believes that the combined role of Chairman and CEO helps promote the Company’s overall strategic development and facilitates the efficient flow of information between management and the Board.

Board Oversight of Risk

The Board of Directors is responsible for oversight of the various risks facing the Company. In this regard, the Board seeks to understand and oversee the most critical risks relating to our business, allocate responsibilities for the oversight of risks among the full Board and its committees, including its Audit, Nominating/Corporate Governance, and Compensation Committees, and see that management has in place effective systems and processes for managing risks facing us. Overseeing risk is an ongoing process and risk is inherently tied to our strategy and to strategic decisions. Accordingly, the Board considers risk throughout the year and with respect to specific proposed actions. While the Board is responsible for oversight and direction, management is charged with identifying risk and establishing appropriate internal processes and an effective internal control environment to identify and manage risks and to communicate information about risk to the Board. Committees of the Board also play an important role in risk oversight, including the Audit Committee, which oversees our processes for assessing risks and the effectiveness of our internal controls. In fulfilling its duties, the Audit Committee considers information from our independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche, LLC, and our internal auditors. Additionally, the Compensation Committee periodically reviews the Company’s compensation policies and profile with management to ensure that compensation supports the Company’s goals and strategic objectives without creating risks that may have a material adverse effect on the Company. See “Item 11. Executive Compensation-Compensation - Policies and Practices and Risk Management” for further information about our risk management policies.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Nominating / Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”) consists of Mr. Connors and Drs. Sherman (Chairman) and Swinney, each of whom the Board of Directors has determined is independent as defined by the Nasdaq Listing Rules. The Nominating Committee operates pursuant to a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors, a copy of which can be found on the Company’s website,  www.icumed.com . The Nominating Committee’s role is to recommend to the Board of Directors policies on Board composition and criteria for Board membership, to identify individuals qualified to serve as directors and approve candidates for director and to recommend directors for appointment to committees of the Board of Directors. The Nominating Committee also makes recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning the Company’s corporate governance guidelines and codes of ethics and business conduct, oversees internal investigations of conduct of senior executives, if necessary, and conducts evaluations of the performance of the Board of Directors.

In evaluating and determining whether to recommend a person as a candidate for election as a director, the Nominating Committee considers, among other things, relevant management and/or industry experience; values such as integrity, accountability, judgment and adherence to high performance standards; independence pursuant to the guidelines set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rules; diversity; ability and willingness to undertake the requisite time commitment to Board service; and an absence of conflicts of interest with the Company.

While the Nominating Committee does not have a specific policy in place, it believes that diversity brings different perspectives to a board of directors which leads to a more varied approach to board issues. The Company has a general non-discrimination policy, which the Nominating Committee observes when considering candidates for the Board of Directors. While not giving specific weight to any aspect of diversity, the Board of Directors believes that its current composition has an appropriate level of diversity with respect to ethnicity and professional experience.

The Nominating Committee may employ a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating nominees for director. The Nominating Committee will assess the need for particular expertise on the Board of Directors, the upcoming election cycle of the Board and whether any vacancies on the Board of Directors are expected due to retirement or otherwise. In the event that vacancies are anticipated, or otherwise arise, the Nominating Committee will consider various potential candidates for director that may come to the Nominating Committee’s attention through current directors, the Company’s professional advisors, stockholders or others.

The Nominating Committee will consider candidates recommended by stockholders. The deadlines and procedures for stockholder recommendations of director candidates are discussed in our proxy statements filed with the SEC under “Nomination of Directors and Submission of Stockholder Proposals.” Following verification of the stockholder status of persons proposing candidates, the Nominating Committee will make an initial analysis of the qualifications of any candidate recommended by stockholders or others pursuant to the criteria summarized above to determine whether the candidate is qualified for service on the Company’s Board before deciding to undertake a complete evaluation of the candidate. Other than the verification of compliance with procedures and stockholder status, and the initial analysis performed by the Nominating Committee, a potential candidate

nominated by a stockholder will be treated like any other potential candidate during the review process by the Nominating Committee.

Audit Committee

The Board of Directors has an Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act, which consists of three directors, Messrs. Brown, Connors and Saucedo (Chairman) all of whom are independent directors as defined by the Nasdaq Listing Rules and Rule 10A(3)(b)(1) of the Exchange Act. As more fully described in the Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee oversees the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Company and audits its financial statements.

The Company’s Board of Directors adopted a revised written Audit Committee charter, a copy of which can be found on the Company’s web site,  www.icumed.com .

The Board of Directors has determined that Joseph R. Saucedo is an “audit committee financial expert” and is “independent,” as those terms are defined by applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules and Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations .

Audit Committee Report

The Company’s audited consolidated financial statements are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed those financial statements with management of the Company and has discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standards No. 16, as amended ( Communications with Audit Committees ), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Further, the Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent auditors required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent auditor’s communications with the audit committee concerning independence, and has discussed the independent auditor’s independence with them. Based on these reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee has recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Compensation Committee

The Board of Directors has a Compensation Committee, consisting of Messrs. Brown and Saucedo, and Drs. Sherman and Swinney (Chairperson). The Board has determined that all members of the Compensation Committee, none of whom are employees, former employees of, or consultants to, the Company are independent directors as defined by the Nasdaq Listing Standards. The Compensation Committee operates pursuant to a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors, a copy of which can be found on the Company’s website,  www.icumed.com .

Our Compensation Committee discharges the responsibilities of the Board of Directors relating to executive and director compensation. It reviews the performance of the Company and our CEO, sets performance objectives, establishes the compensation of the CEO, recommends to the Board of Directors the compensation of the other executive officers and authorizes the grant of options to employees, and awards under our bonus and incentive plans.

Our Compensation Committee engaged Compensia, a national compensation consulting firm, to advise on the performance-based compensation structure and awards, including the Performance-Based Incentive Plan and to provide market data and other analysis for compensation of executive officers and members of our Board of Directors. Prior to making its decisions for executive officers other than the CEO, the Compensation Committee receives recommendations from the CEO as to the amounts and types of compensation and other awards for those executive officers.

Stockholder Communications

The Company’s Board of Directors has an established process for stockholder communications and it can be found on the Company’s website,  www.icumed.com .

In the past year, the Board of Directors did not receive any stockholder communications that it considered material and therefore took no action.

Conflict of Interest Analysis

The Compensation Committee believes that the work of Compensia, the compensation consultant engaged by our Compensation Committee during 2014, raised no conflict of interest. In reaching this conclusion, our Compensation Committee considered the factors set forth in the SEC and NASDAQ rules regarding compensation advisor independence.

Family Relationships

Alison D. Burcar, the Company’s Vice President & General Manager of Infusion Systems, is the niece of Dr. Lopez, a director and the founder of the Company. There are no other family relationships among the executive officers or directors of the Company.

The Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Brown and Saucedo, Drs. Sherman and Swinney (Chairman).

Executive Summary

Our fiscal year 2014 was a year of significant, positive transition. Beginning in February 2014, Vivek Jain joined the Company as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. Following a deep review of the organization, competitive influences, and an exhaustive review of the strengths of our portfolio, the executive team set in place a series of targeted actions to align the organization with a strategy that establishes a path for long term growth; connecting patients and caregivers through safe, life-saving and life-enhancing medical devices.

In August of 2014, the Company initiated a restructuring event resulting in the establishment of two distinct business units; Infusion Systems and Critical Care. Alison D. Burcar was appointed as Vice President & General Manager of Infusion Systems and Tom McCall was named Vice President & General Manager of Critical Care. Each market segment, set with a defined strategy, began to diligently work towards its respective goals for 2014, demonstrating both solid results and a foundation for future growth.

Fiscal year 2014 revenue was $309.3 million. GAAP net income was $26.3 million, or $1.68 per diluted share. Our adjusted diluted earnings for fiscal year 2014 were $2.38 per share. Also, adjusted EBITDA was $73.9 million for fiscal year 2014. (See "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information" below for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures).

Please see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 for a more detailed description of our fiscal year 2014 financial results.

Financial performance was a key factor in the bonus decisions and outcomes for the 2014 fiscal year. For 2014, payment of performance bonuses was principally based on over-achievement of targets linked to total revenue, operating income and diluted earnings per share. The performance against the target levels for the 2014 financial performance goals accounted for 100% of the named executive officers bonus pay for fiscal 2014. Ms. Burcar and Mr. McCall initially also had specific individual goals that were impacted as a result of the restructuring efforts mid-year. As a result, the Compensation Committee approved a modification to the bonus plan to have incentive payouts directly linked to the above Company financial results for fiscal 2014.

Executive Compensation Overview

Our executive compensation program is further designed to align our named executive officers’ interests with those of our stockholders by establishing a direct and meaningful link between our business financial results and their compensation. Consistent with our pay for performance philosophy, our Compensation Committee approves annual goals for the named executive officers’ incentive compensation with the objective of increasing stockholder value. Our named executive officers’ total compensation is comprised of a mix of base salary, performance-based bonuses and performance and time-based equity awards.

In determining total compensation of our named executive officers, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors considers many factors that include:
 	 	
•	the overall business and financial performance of the Company;	
 	 	
•	the individual’s performance, experience and skills;	
 	 	
•	the terms of employment agreements or other arrangements with the individual;	
 	 	
•	competitive market data for similar positions based on the Company’s peer group; and	
 	 	
•	voting results from the prior year’s advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers.

Table of Contents

For 2014, the Compensation Committee approved an executive compensation program that included three elements: base salary, annual performance-based cash bonuses, and long-term based incentives. Our executive compensation objectives are:
 	 	
•	to provide competitive total pay opportunities that help attract, reward and retain leadership and key talent;	
 	 	
•	to establish a direct and meaningful link between business financial results, individual/team performance and rewards; and	
 	 	
•	to provide strong incentives to promote the profitability and growth of the Company, create stockholder value and reward superior performance.	

The Compensation Committee believes that a critical factor in ensuring the Company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate its executive officers is ensuring that their compensation is competitive with companies that it considers to be competitors. In determining the appropriate level and form of compensation, the Compensation Committee reviews market data relating to the cash and equity compensation of similarly-sized medical device and life sciences companies that is provided by Compensia, a national compensation consulting firm engaged by our Compensation Committee. The market data also includes a specific set of peer companies comprised of publicly-held health care equipment and supply companies that generally met the following characteristics: positive revenue growth, annual revenues of 0.5-2.0 times our revenues and aggregate market values of 0.5-3.0 times our aggregate market value.

Compensia conducted a compensation analysis (which our Compensation Committee used as the basis for setting our executive compensation levels), using the following peer companies:

Abaxis             ArthroCare        Merit Medical Systems        
Abiomed            Cantel Medical        Natus Medical         Thoratec            
Align Technology        Insulet             NxStage Medical            Volcano
Analogic            Masimo            RTI Biologics            Wright Medical Group
AngioDynamics        Meridian Bioscience    Symmetry Medical            

All market data used for the comparative analysis, which includes the foregoing companies and supplemental survey data, comprises our peer group.

    The Compensation Committee reviews and determines the compensation of all executive officers. See “Compensation Committee” elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In setting compensation levels for executive officers, the Compensation Committee considers each element of compensation separately as well as the aggregate value of all elements of compensation for each individual. Amounts realized or realizable from awards under prior bonus or incentive plans, including stock options, do not significantly influence the pay setting process of current compensation levels. The significant compensation components are base salary, bonus pay and equity awards.

Primary Components of Our 2014 Executive Compensation Program

Component	Form of compensation	Objectives and basis of compensation	 	
Base Salary	Cash	Compensation is competitively based, taking into account the officer’s responsibilities and experience.	 	
 	 	Base salary is reviewed by the Compensation Committee annually or when position responsibilities change.	 	 	
Performance-Based Bonuses	Cash	The bonus is intended to further align the interests of the executive officer with the objectives of the Company, which are based on what the Company believes will produce the best return for the Company’s stockholders.	 	 	
 	 	The bonus is based on the achievement of target levels for financial measures determined at the start of the fiscal year.	 	 	 	
 	 	The bonus is a percentage of the executive officer’s base salary.	 	 	 	 	
 	 	The bonus is funded based on the percentage of the Company financial goal achieved at the fiscal year end.	 	 	 	 	 	
 	 	The Compensation Committee may exercise its discretion to award cash bonuses outside the plan in circumstances of special individual achievement.	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Performance and Time-Based Equity Awards	Performance and Time-Based Stock Options/ Time-Based Restricted Stock Unit Awards	Stock options and RSU awards retain executive officers through long-term vesting and potential wealth accumulation.	 	 	 	 	 	 	
 	 	Stock options and RSU awards promote stockholder value creation.	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
 	 	Stock options and RSU awards are intended to make compensation practices consistent with our peer group. performance-based stock options are effective tools in better aligning equity compensation with Company performance .	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Jain and retention agreements with each of our other named executive officers because our Compensation Committee believes that the occurrence, or potential occurrence, of a change in control would create uncertainty and disruption during a critical time for the Company. In addition, our Compensation Committee believes these agreements:
 	 	
•	contribute to overall competitiveness of executive total compensation and enhance the Company’s ability to attract/retain key executives,	
 	 	
•	further align the interests of key executives with those of the Company’s shareholders and promote objective evaluations of strategy alternatives by executives,	
 	 	
•	motivate executives to drive business success independent of the possible occurrence of any change-of-control transaction and reduce distractions associated with the potential for a transaction or termination of employment,	
 	 	
•	maximize shareholder value by retaining "key" personnel through deal close so that the Company is delivered in the condition bargained for by a potential acquirer,	
 	 	
•	protect the Company in the event the transaction is not completed, and	
 	 	
•	avoid "one-off" severance negotiations and encourage prompt, rational decisions around executive "viability" and continued employment.	

Base Salaries

The Compensation Committee will generally review base salaries annually and when position responsibilities change during the year.    

In reviewing the base salaries of our named executive officers, the Compensation Committee considered the market for similar positions based on the peer group and took into account individual performance in addition to terms of employment agreements and offer letters.

 	 	$	293,550	
 	
*During his term as Acting President and CEO, from October 2013 to February 2014, Mr. Riggs’ salary was adjusted to $600,000 per year. In February 2014, Mr. Riggs stepped down from this role and returned to his role as our Vice President of Operations when Mr. Jain was appointed CEO and Chairman of the Board.

The following table presents each current named executive officer’s earned salary for 2014 and the percentile such salary represents compared to our peer group.

Named Executive Officer (1)	 	Salary	%	
Vivek Jain	 	$ 574,162	 	50th to 75th	
Scott E. Lamb	 	$ 395,150	 	~75th	
Steven C. Riggs (2)	 	$ 390,509	 	~50th	
Alison D. Burcar	 	$ 315,000	 	<50th	
Tom McCall	 	$ 293,550	 	<50th	
(1) The salary for Mr. Costello is excluded from the table above. He separated with the Company on April 5, 2014.
(2) The percentile of earned salary for Mr. Riggs for 2014 is based on his annual salary of $360,582 as Vice President of Operations.

Performance-Based Bonuses
    
Our 2008 Performance-Based Incentive Plan (the “Performance-Based Incentive Plan”) was approved by stockholders in 2008 and re-approved by stockholders in 2014. The Performance-Based Incentive Plan is intended to permit the grant of bonuses designed to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). Pursuant to the terms of the plan, the Compensation Committee sets target bonus opportunities and selects performance measures and related target levels for each year. Bonus awards are based on our actual performance for the year based on the Company’s achievement of the performance measure target levels.

For 2014, the cash bonus opportunities of our named executive officers, excluding Mr. Costello who separated with the Company in April 2014, were provided pursuant to the Performance-Based Incentive Plan. Each target bonus opportunity was weighted so that achievement of the pre-established performance goals paid 1/3 rd  of the officer’s target award if threshold performance was achieved and 140% of the target award if maximum “stretch” performance was achieved. Ms. Burcar and Mr. McCall initially also had individual goals tied to a portion of their potential bonus. After both were promoted to new positions in 2014 in connection with the restructuring plan, these goals were removed. The following table presents the 2014 target bonus opportunities and the eligible bonus range as a percentage of total salary for each named executive officer, excluding Mr. Costello.

The 2014 corporate performance measures were weighted equally between total revenue, operating income and diluted earnings per share. Based on a review of economic conditions, the Compensation Committee set performance goals under the Performance-Based Incentive Plan based on achievement of the following financial target levels:
 	 	
•	1/3 of target award based on total revenue of $285 million to $300 million;	
 	 	
•	1/3 of target award based on operating income of $26 million to $33 million; and	
 	 	
•	1/3 of target award based on $1.15 to $1.45 diluted earnings per share.	

The following table presents target and stretch bonus payouts and the actual amounts earned under the Performance-Based Incentive Plan for each named executive officer, excluding Mr. Costello, for 2014 as approved by the Compensation Committee.

Performance and Time-Based Equity Awards
We grant equity awards to our executive officers and certain employees to align their interest with the interest of our stockholders and to achieve our retention objectives. The use of equity awards further promotes our efforts to encourage the profitability and growth of the Company through the establishment of strong incentives.

The following table presents the equity award grants to our named executive officers for 2014. There were no equity awards granted to Mr. Costello.

Name	 	Restricted stock units	 	Time-based option grants	 	Performance stock option grants

Consistent with our overall pay philosophy, our Compensation Committee sized 2014 executive equity awards such that total executive pay levels fell in the competitive market range, as appropriate, after considering factors such as Company and individual performance, experience, longevity with the Company, internal pay parity considerations and unique requirements of the position. All named executive officer performance grants included the following provisions:
 	 	
•	The performance stock options vest 25% on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the option grant date. Fifty percent of the vested shares shall become exercisable if, during the term of the option, the closing price of our common stock is equal to or more than 125% of the exercise price of $58.79 per share for 30 consecutive trading days. The remaining 50% of the vested shares shall become exercisable if the closing price of our common stock is equal to or more than 150% of the exercise price of $58.79 per share for 30 consecutive trading days.	
 	 	
•	The time-based stock options vest 25% on the first anniversary of the option grant date and monthly thereafter for the following 36 months.	
 	 	
•	The restricted stock units ("RSUs") vest in equal annual increments over a three year period.	

In February 2014, in connection with Mr. Jain's appointment as the CEO and Chairman of the Board, his signing award included $11.9 million in performance and time-based stock options, determined using a "Monte Carlo Simulation" valuation for the performance stock options and a "Black Scholes" valuation for the time-based stock options and $4.0 million of restricted stock units. Roughly one-half of the stock option award value is performance-based and one-half is time-based. We believe the equity awards and performance goals directly align with creating value for stockholder.

Benefits

The Company does not provide pension or other post-retirement benefits, other than matching contributions under the Company’s 401(k) retirement plan. The Company does not provide, except to the limited extent described in this discussion, any significant perquisites or other personal benefits to its officers.

Stock Ownership Guidelines    

In 2011, we established stock ownership guidelines for our CEO and members of our Board of Directors. In 2014, we established stock ownership guidelines for our other executive officers. Our CEO has up to five years to acquire and retain shares of our common stock that equal or exceed five times the CEO's annual salary. Our directors have up to five years to acquire and retain shares of our common stock that equal or exceed three times the director's annual base retainer. Our other executive officers have up to five years to acquire and retain shares of our common stock that equal or the annual salary of the executive officer. Shares beneficially owned by a director, directly or indirectly, including vested restricted shares and shares represented by vested RSUs, count toward meeting the stock ownership guidelines.

Anti-Pledging / Hedging Policies

All executive officers and directors are prohibited from engaging in any speculative transactions in Company securities, including share pledging, engaging in short sales, engaging in transactions in put options, call options or other derivative securities, or engaging in any other forms of hedging transactions.

Results of 2014 Stockholder Advisory Vote

The Compensation Committee considers the Say-On-Pay vote results from the prior Annual Meeting of stockholders to assist in its evaluation of the compensation program for our named executive officers. The 2014 Say-On-Pay vote approved by the stockholders with over 87% support, confirming to the Compensation Committee that stockholders approved of the recent efforts of the Committee to more effectively align executive compensation with performance.

For 2015, the Compensation Committee has positioned the targeted total compensation with reference to the competitive market range (e.g. 50th percentile), with adjustments upwards or downwards based on factors such as Company and individual performance, experience, longevity with the Company, internal pay parity considerations and unique requirements of the position.

2015 PLAN ADOPTIONS
2015 Executive Compensation
Base Salary

In December 2014, our Compensation Committee considered the compensation for our current named executive officers for the 2015 fiscal year. The Compensation Committee determined not to modify the base salary for all named executive officers.

Annual Cash Incentives

For 2015, the Compensation Committee approved a new annual incentive plan for the executive management team referred to as the Management Incentive Program ("MIP"). We feel it is critical to build a culture that emphasizes company success first, teamwork, accountability, and pay for performance. An important part of building this culture is developing a total compensation program that rewards the executive team members who achieve results that positively impact the organization. There are two key components to our MIP:
 	 	
1.	Company Performance - The funding mechanism for MIP. ICU Medical Inc. will have a financial target established at the beginning of the fiscal year. Funding of the MIP will be based on attainment of the financial target. In setting the Company-wide MIP performance goal for fiscal 2015, the Company determined that the goal would be based on performance to Adjusted EBITDA.	

2.	Individual Performance Factor ("IPF") - The IPF provides a mechanism for our Compensation Committee to exercise discretion to recommend a MIP payment above or below the individual named executive officer’s target amount based on the individual’s contributions to the Company’s success and performance towards stated goals and objectives for the fiscal year. The IPF reinforces our pay for performance philosophy.	
For fiscal 2015, our MIP has a funding range of 0%-150% payment based on the Company's performance to Adjusted EBITDA.
In addition, the Compensation Committee may assign an individual performance factor of 0%-150% related to the IPF of the named executive officer, which can result in an increase or decrease in the actual MIP payment, provided that no MIP payment shall exceed 150% of a named executive officer’s MIP target.

As part of the review and introduction of the MIP, the Compensation Committee reviewed the 2015 MIP targets as a percentage of base salary. The Compensation Committee approved the following MIP targets for the following named executive officers:
 	 	
•	Mr. Jain - No change in his target as a percentage of base pay; remains at 100%.	
 	 	
•	Mr. Lamb - Target decreased by 5%; 60% for 2015.	

15

Table of Contents
 	 	
•	Mr. Riggs - Target decreased by 5%; 60% for 2015.	
 	 	
•	Ms. Burcar - No change in her target as a percentage of base pay; remains at 60%.	
 	 	
•	Mr. McCall - Target increased by 25%; 60% for 2015.	

The following table outlines the decisions of our Compensation Committee with respect to our current named executive officers annual base pay and MIP targets for the 2015 fiscal year.

 	 	60%	 	$	469,680	

Long Term Equity

In February 2015, our Compensation Committee reviewed and approved the fiscal 2015 annual Long Term Incentive ("LTI") award, which included equity-based awards for our named executive officers. Our philosophy on Long Term Equity for our current named executive offices is built on our pay for performance philosophy. Fifty percent of the LTI award is tied directly to Company performance.

The 2015 equity awards for Mr. Jain, Mr. Lamb, Mr. Riggs, Ms. Burcar and Mr. McCall include a combination of restricted stock units and performance-based stock options. The restricted stock units vest in equal annual increments over a three-year period. The performance-based stock options vest in equal annual increments over a three-year period and become exercisable if the closing price of our common stock is 30% higher than the exercise price of $88.76 for at least 30 consecutive trading days within four years from the grant date.

Compensation Policies and Practices and Risk Management
Our Compensation Committee considers potential risks when reviewing and approving the compensation programs for our executive officers and other employees. We have designed our compensation programs, including our incentive compensation plans, with specific features to address potential risks while rewarding employees for achieving long-term financial and strategic objectives through prudent business judgment and appropriate risk taking. The following elements have been incorporated in our programs available for our executive officers:
 	 	
•	A balanced mix of compensation components - The target compensation mix for our executive officers is composed of base salary, annual cash bonus incentives, and long-term equity awards.	
 	 	
•	Multiple performance factors - Our incentive compensation plans use both Company-wide metrics and individual performance metrics for all executive officers, excluding Mr. Jain, to establish funding of our MIP and IPF which encourage focus on the achievement of objectives for the overall benefit of the Company.	
 	 	
•	Capped cash incentive awards - Beginning in 2015, MIP awards are capped at 150% of target.	
 	 	
•	Multi-year vesting - Equity awards vest over multiple years requiring long-term commitment on the part of employees.	
 	 	
•	Competitive positioning - The Compensation Committee has compared our executive compensation to our peers to ensure our compensation program is consistent with industry practice.	

16

Table of Contents
 	 	
•	Corporate governance programs - We have implemented corporate governance guidelines, a code of conduct and other corporate governance measures and internal controls.    	
The Compensation Committee also reviews the key design elements of our compensation programs in relation to industry practices, as well as the means by which any potential risks may be mitigated, such as through our internal controls and oversight by management and the Board of Directors.  Based on this review, our Compensation Committee concluded that based on a combination of factors, our compensation policies and practices do not incentivize excessive risk-taking that could have a material adverse effect on our Company.
Summary Compensation Table
The following table shows all compensation awarded to, earned by or paid to each of our principal executive officers, principal financial officer and the next three most highly compensated executive officers, including one former executive officer, in 2014 whose 2014 total compensation exceeded $100,000 (collectively, the “named executive officers”). Bonus and non-equity incentive plan compensation in the table below are included in the year awarded rather than the year actually paid; a portion of certain amounts may be paid in the following year.

(1)	Performance bonuses are payable under the Performance-Based Incentive Plan if certain annual financial achievements are met or exceeded. The amounts earned by our named executive officers from this bonus arrangement in 2014 are reflected in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation column in the Summary Compensation Table. The material terms of the Performance-Based Incentive Plan are discussed above under the caption “Performance-Based Bonuses.”	
 	 	
(2)	Performance stock options to purchase our common stock were granted under the 2011 Plan and the 2014 Inducement Incentive Plan ("2014 Plan"). The exercise price of the options is the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant. The options expire 10 years from issuance and vest ratably at 25% per year over four years. The performance stock options are exercisable if the common stock price condition is met. Fifty percent of the vested performance stock options become exercisable if the closing price of our common stock is equal to or more than 125% of the exercise price for 30 consecutive trading days during the term of the grant. The remaining 50% of the vested performance stock options become exercisable if the closing price of our common stock is equal to or more than 150% of the exercise price for 30 consecutive trading days during the term of the grant.	
 	 	
(3)	Time-based stock options to purchase our common stock were granted under the 2011 Plan. The exercise price of the options is the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant. The options expire 10 years from issuance and vest over four years, 25% on the first anniversary of issuance and the balance vests ratably on a monthly basis over the remaining 36 months.	
 	 	
(4)	RSUs were granted under the 2014 Plan and vest ratably on the anniversary of the grant over three years. The fair value of the RSUs is based on the price of the common stock on the grant date.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control

On February 7, 2014, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Jain. Under his employment agreement, any amounts payable upon termination are subject to tax withholdings and will be made on the sixtieth day following the date of termination.

Payments to Mr. Jain would have been the following if a change in control of the Company had occurred at December 31, 2014 and he continued in his position as CEO and Chairman of the board:
 	 	
•	100% of the shares subject to the initial performance-based stock option, the initial time-based stock option and the initial restricted stock unit award granted to him in his employment agreement would have vested.	

Payments to Mr. Jain would have been the following if a change in control of the Company had occurred at December 31, 2014 and his employment had been terminated without cause by the Company or for good reason by Mr. Jain or as a result of his death or disability at December 31, 2014:
 	 	
•	Mr. Jain would have received a cash payment equal to 300% of his annual salary and his target bonus.	
 	 	
•	100%  of the shares subject to the initial performance-based stock option, the initial time-based stock option and the initial restricted stock unit award granted to him in his employment agreement would have vested.	

Payments to Mr. Jain would have been the following if his employment had been terminated without cause by the Company or for good reason by Mr. Jain or as a result of his death or disability at December 31, 2014:
 	 	
•	Mr. Jain would have received a cash payment equal to 300% of his annual salary and his target bonus.	
 	 	
•	100% of the shares subject to the initial time-based stock option and the initial restricted stock unit award granted to him in his employment agreement would have vested. In addition, all of Mr. Jain’s outstanding stock options would remain exercisable, to the extent vested, for a period of three years following the date of termination.

•	If any of these payments or benefits were subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, Mr. Jain would have been entitled to the payments and benefits either (i) delivered in full or (ii) reduced such that no portion of the payments or benefits would be subject to the excise tax, whichever would be more favorable to Mr. Jain on an after tax basis.	
    
Under Mr. Jain’s employment agreement, the cash severance payable in connection with involuntary terminations on or after February 13, 2016 is reduced to 100% of his annual salary and target bonus (200% of these amounts for termination in connection with a change in control).

On December 2, 2013, we entered into retention agreements with Mr. Lamb, Mr. Riggs, Ms. Burcar, Mr. McCall and Mr. Costello that are effective until December 1, 2016 (unless the employee is terminated prior to this date). Mr. Costello separated with the Company April 5, 2014, at which time he received $27,419 for his accrued vacation. The retention agreements provide that, if within three months prior or 12 months after a change in control of the Company, as defined in the agreements, their employment is terminated for other than cause, disability or death or for good reason the officer will be entitled to the items that follow. These retention agreements do not contain any tax gross-up provisions but, instead provide for the same most favorable excise tax option.

Payments will be made within sixty days following the date of termination. Payments to Mr. Lamb, Mr. Riggs, Ms. Burcar and Mr. McCall would have included the following if termination without cause or for good reason in connection with a change in control had occurred at December 31, 2014:
 	 	
◦	Mr. Lamb, Mr. Riggs and Ms. Burcar would have received 200% of their annual base salary. Mr. McCall would have received 150% of his annual base salary.	
 	 	
◦	Mr. Lamb, Mr. Riggs and Ms. Burcar would have received 200% of their target annual bonuses. Mr. McCall would have received 150% is his target annual bonus.	
 	 	
◦	Mr. Lamb, Mr. Riggs and Ms. Burcar's benefits for medical insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, life insurance and disability insurance would continue through December 31, 2016. Mr. McCall's benefits for medical insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, life insurance and disability insurance would continue through June 30, 2016.	
 	 	
◦	Unvested stock options or other equity awards would vest 100% for Mr. Lamb, Mr. Riggs and Ms. Burcar and would vest 90% for Mr. McCall.	

The retention agreements provide that, if employment is terminated by the Company other than for cause, disability or death, change of control or by the employee for "good reason", the employee would be entitled to receive 100% of their annual salary and 12 months of benefits.

For the purposes of Mr. Jain's employment agreement and the retention agreements, a change in control generally means the following:

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Our management believes that the non-GAAP data provides useful supplemental information to management and investors regarding our performance and facilitates a more meaningful comparison of results of operations between current and prior periods. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted earnings per share ("Adjusted Diluted EPS"). Adjusted EBITDA excludes intangible asset amortization expense, depreciation expense, stock compensation expense, strategic transaction expense, restructuring expense and income tax expense. Adjusted Diluted EPS excludes, net of tax, intangible asset amortization expense, stock compensation expense, strategic transaction expense and restructuring expense.

The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations in using these non-GAAP financial measures because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

Transactions with Related Persons

We have not entered into or participated in any transaction required to be disclosed by Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Table of Contents

Policies and Procedures Regarding Transactions with Related Persons

We attempt to review all related person transactions to ensure fairness to the Company and proper disclosure under SEC rules. Pursuant to the Audit Committee charter, our Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving all related person transactions. Additionally, our Board of Directors conducts annual reviews of each director to determine such director’s independence. We also require each of our executive officers and directors to complete a questionnaire that is intended to identify transactions or potential transactions that require disclosure under SEC rules or create a potential conflict of interest. In determining whether to approve a related party transaction, our Audit Committee considers the general fairness of the transaction to the Company, including the material terms and conditions of the proposed transaction, the related party’s interest, the amount involved in the transaction and whether the transaction is on terms comparable to terms available in a transaction involving an unrelated third party.

Pursuant to our written Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, each executive officer or director must receive approval of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee or the Board of Directors prior to engaging in certain transactions that are likely to involve a conflict of interest.

Director Independence

The Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Brown, Connors and Saucedo and Drs. Sherman and Swinney are independent directors as defined by the NASDAQ Listing Rules. During the course of its review, the Board of Directors considers transactions and relationships between each director (and such director’s immediate family) and the Company and its affiliates against the independence requirements of NASDAQ, and in the case of the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee, the SEC rules.

Item 14.  Principal Accounting Fees and Services.

It is the policy of our Audit Committee to have the engagement of our independent registered public accounting firm to perform any audit or non-audit services approved in advance by the Audit Committee.
