On May 22, 2015, the stockholders of Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation (the “Company”) approved the Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation Third Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Amended Plan”). On April 2, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the Amended Plan, subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders.

The Amended Plan amends the Company’s Second Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2003 Plan”) in the following material respects:
adding new types of awards that can be granted, including stock payment awards and other incentive awards;
revising the list of performance criteria that may be applicable to the grant of performance stock;
adding a ten-year term, so that the Plan would expire on April 2, 2025;
clarifying the terms and conditions that would apply to transferred awards; and
providing for the acceleration of vesting of a participant’s stock options and stock appreciation rights upon the death or disability of such participant.

A copy of the Amended Plan is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference into this Item.
