Subject to the completion of this transaction, certain employees participating in the 2013 Employee Incentive Plan (EIP) and the 2013 Management Incentive Plan (MIP) will be entitled to receive certain payments upon the closing of the transaction. Specifically, pursuant to the merger agreement with Bayer, such plans will be amended to provide that the incentive awards that certain participants have accrued through June 30, 2013, based upon target performance through June 30, 2013, shall be paid in cash within thirty days after the closing of the transaction. Pursuant to this amendment, if you remain employed by Conceptus through the closing, you will receive a cash payout of $            , before taxes, based on your target bonus target of [__]%. You will remain eligible for the remainder of your 2013 EIP or MIP bonus, payable after the end of year (and including any earned overachievement for the entire year) and subject to the conditions set forth in such plans (as amended).

This new chapter for Conceptus is exciting, and it is our hope that it will provide genuine opportunities to expand our market base and our goal to support women’s health and healthy family planning.

In the near term, and through the transition process, we do not anticipate changes to our organization outside of the ordinary. You will receive regular updates through e-mail or through your managers, regarding the status of this process through its closing.

Thank you for all your ongoing efforts and commitment to your work, our mission and your colleagues here at Conceptus.

Sincerely,
