Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On December 27, 2012, InSite Vision Incorporated (the “Company”), pursuant to the authorization of the Stock Plan and Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, entered into an Option Cancellation Agreement, dated December 27, 2012 (the “Agreement”), with the Company’s chief executive officer, Timothy Ruane, for the purpose of correcting a technical violation of the Company’s 2007 Performance Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). On December 1, 2010, the Company issued to Mr. Ruane an option (the “2010 Option”) covering 2,844,374 shares of the Company’s common stock, which amount exceeded by 1,344,374 shares the maximum number of shares subject to options that may be granted during any calendar year to any individual under the Plan. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the parties agreed to (i) the cancellation of 1,344,374 shares under the 2010 Option, (ii) the issuance to Mr. Ruane of a new option to purchase 1,100,000 shares effective December 27, 2012 (the “2012 New Option”), and (iii) the issuance to Mr. Ruane of a new option to purchase 244,374 shares on January 2, 2013 (the “2013 New Option”). The exercise price of the 2012 New Option is $0.35, the same as the exercise price of the 2010 Option, which exceeded the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the December 27, 2012 grant date. The exercise price of the 2013 New Option will be the greater of $0.35 and the closing price of the Company’s common stock on January 2, 2013. All other terms and conditions of the 2012 New Option and the 2013 New Option, including the vesting commencement dates, are the same as those of the 2010 Option.

A copy of the Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
