On January 7, 2011, Lon M. Bohannon, President and Chief Operating Officer of Neogen Corporation (the “Registrant”) entered into a Sales Plan (the “Plan”) with a securities brokerage firm to sell up to 50,000 shares of the Registrant’s common stock directly or beneficially owned by Mr. Bohannon. The number of shares to be sold pursuant to the Plan is subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, and other recapitalization events.

The Plan directs the brokerage firm to sell the shares over the next 12 months in increments of 5,000 shares per month at any time the market price of the stock is at or in excess of $35. If in any month less than 5,000 shares are sold because the stock price is less than $35 those shares will be carried to a subsequent month and sold together with that subsequent months allotment at any time the market is at or in excess of $35, subject to a maximum number of shares that may be sold in any one month of 10,000. If at any time the stock price is at or in excess of $40 the maximum number of shares that may be sold in any one month increases to 10,000 inclusive of any carryover shares.

All sales of shares pursuant to the Plan are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Plan may be terminated at any time.

The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Rule 10b5-1 permits insiders to sell shares of stock over a designated period of time by establishing pre-arranged written plans at a time when the insiders are not in possession of material non-public information.
