CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Corporate Governance Policy
We will regularly monitor developments in the area of corporate governance and review our
processes and procedures in light of such developments. In those efforts, we review Federal laws
affecting corporate governance, such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In addition, in
anticipation of our application to list our shares of common stock on the American Stock Exchange
(the AMEX), we also review applicable rules of the AMEX.
Board of Directors Meetings
Our business, property and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors.
Members of our board of directors are kept informed of our business through discussions with our
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Accounting Officer and other officers and
-4-
employees, by reviewing materials provided to them and by participating in meetings of our board of
directors and its committees.
Our board
of directors met 14 times during 2006: 4
of which were at regularly scheduled
meetings and 10 of which were at special meetings. During 2006, the committees of our board of
directors held a total of 4 meetings. Each director attended at least 75% of the total number
of meetings of the board of directors and each committee of the board on which such director
served.
Independence Determination
Our board of directors will observe all applicable criteria for independence established by
the AMEX and other governing laws and applicable regulations. No director is deemed to be
independent unless our board of directors determines that the director has no relationship which
would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out his or her

are independent as determined by listing standards of the AMEX and other applicable regulations:
Robert Baron, David A. Eichler, Richard A. Lerner, M.D., Michael Reich and Melvin L. Rubin, M.D.
In making this determination, the board of directors considered all relevant factors, including the fact that Michael Reich is the uncle of Samuel Reich, the Companys Executive Vice President.

Our board of directors maintains several standing committees, including an audit committee
established in accordance with section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as

addition, the compensation committee also takes into consideration the recommendations of our Chief
Executive Officer concerning compensation actions for our other executive officers and any
recommendations of compensation consultants. The primary role of consultants is to provide

Officer and management to obtain information needed to carry out its assignments.
Our compensation committee is comprised of Dr. Rubin, Dr. Lerner and Mr. Eichler. We believe that
the composition and functioning of our compensation committee complies with all applicable
requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the AMEX and the SECs rules and regulations,

comply with future requirements to the extent that they become applicable to us.
On April 25, 2007, the board of directors amended and restated the Companys Compensation
Committee Charter.
Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee
Our corporate governance and nominating committees responsibilities include the selection of
potential candidates for our board of directors. It also makes recommendations to our board of
-7-
directors concerning the structure and membership of the other board committees and considers
director candidates recommended by others, including our Chief Executive Officer, other board
members, third parties and shareholders. Our nominating and governance committee is comprised of
Dr. Rubin, Dr. Lerner and Mr. Baron. We believe that the composition of our nominating and
governance committee complies with any applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002,
the AMEX and the SECs rules and regulations, including those regarding the independence of our
nominating and governance committee members. We intend to comply with future requirements to the
extent that they become applicable to us.
The corporate governance and nominating committee will identify director nominees through a
combination of referrals, including by stockholders, existing members of the board of directors and
management, and direct solicitations, where warranted. Once a candidate has been identified, the
corporate governance and nominating committee reviews the individuals experience and background,
and may discuss the proposed nominee with the source of the recommendation. The corporate
governance and nominating committee usually believes it to be appropriate for committee members to
interview the proposed nominee before making a final determination whether to recommend the
individual as a nominee to the entire board of directors to stand for election to the board of
directors.
On April 25, 2007, the board of directors amended and restated the Companys Corporate Governance
and Nominating Committee Charter.
Director Nomination Process
The corporate governance and nominating committee will review annually and make
recommendations to the board of directors regarding the appropriate qualifications, skills and
experience expected of individual members and of the board of directors as a whole with the
objective of having a board of directors with sound judgment and diverse backgrounds and experience
to represent stockholder interests.
The corporate governance and nominating committee believes that nominees for election to the board
of directors should possess sufficient business or financial experience and a willingness to devote
the time and effort necessary to discharge the responsibilities of a director. This experience can
include, but is not limited to, service on other boards of directors or active involvement with
other boards of directors, experience in the industries in which the Company conducts its business,
audit and financial expertise, clinical experience, operational experience, or a scientific or
medical background. The corporate governance and nominating committee does not believe that
nominees for election to the board of directors should be selected through mechanical application
of specified criteria. Rather, the corporate governance and nominating committee believes that the
qualifications and strengths of individuals should be considered in their totality with a view to
nominating persons for election to the board of directors whose backgrounds, integrity, and
personal characteristics indicate that they will make a positive contribution to the board of
directors.
The corporate governance and nominating committee intends to identify candidates for election to
the board of directors through the personal knowledge and experience of the members of the
-8-
Committee, through third-party recommendations, and, for so long as the Committee believes it
appropriate, through a search firm selected by the corporate governance and nominating committee
and compensated by the Company. Candidates will be evaluated based upon their backgrounds and
interviews with members of the board of directors. The Committee does not plan to evaluate
candidates identified by the corporate governance and nominating committee differently from those
recommended by a stockholder or otherwise.
The corporate governance and nominating committee will consider director candidates recommended by
stockholders. Stockholders who wish to recommend candidates for election to the board of directors
must do so in writing. The recommendation should be sent to the Secretary of the Company, Adam
Logal, Opko Health, Inc., 4400 Biscayne Boulevard, Suite 900, Miami, Florida 33137, who will
forward the recommendation to the Committee. The recommendation must set forth (i) the name and
address as they appear on the Companys books of the stockholder making the recommendation and the
class and number of shares of capital stock of the Company beneficially owned by such stockholder
and (ii) the name of the candidate and all information relating to the candidate that is required
to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors under the federal proxy
rules. The recommendation must be accompanied by the candidates written consent to being named in
the Companys proxy statement as a nominee for election to the board of directors and to serving as
a director, if elected. Stockholders must also comply with all requirements of the Companys
by-laws with respect to nomination of persons for election to the board of directors.

centralized process assists our board of directors in reviewing and responding to stockholder
communications in an appropriate manner.
Board Attendance at Annual Meetings of Stockholders
Although we encourage each member of our board of directors to attend our annual meetings of
stockholders, we do not have a formal policy requiring the members of our board of directors to
attend.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
On April 25, 2007, we adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. We require all
employees, including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer and other
-9-
senior officers and our employee directors, to read and to adhere to the Code of Business Conduct
and Ethics in discharging their work-related responsibilities. Employees are required to report any
conduct that they believe in good faith to be an actual or apparent violation of the Code of
Business Conduct and Ethics. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available on our website at
http://www.opko.com.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Companys
directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class
of the Companys equity securities, to file with the United Stated Securities and Exchange
Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common Stock and
other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent
stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a)
forms they file.
To the Companys knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to the
Company and written representations that no other reports were required, during fiscal year 2006,
all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than ten
percent stockholders were complied with by the Companys directors and executive officers, and ten
percent stockholders.
Item 11. Executive Compensation.
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
The primary goals of our board of directors with respect to executive compensation will be to
attract and retain talented and dedicated executives, to tie annual and long-term cash and stock
incentives to achievement of specified performance objectives, and to create incentives which will
result in stockholder value creation. To achieve these goals, we have formed a compensation
committee to recommend executive compensation packages to our board of directors that are generally
based on a mix of salary, discretionary bonus and equity awards. Although we have not adopted any
formal guidelines for allocating total compensation between equity compensation and cash
compensation, we intend to implement and maintain compensation plans that tie a substantial portion
of our executives overall compensation to achievement of corporate goals.
Benchmarking of Cash and Equity Compensation
We have not retained a compensation consultant to review our policies and procedures with
respect to executive compensation. We have, in the past, conducted an annual benchmark review of
the aggregate level of our executive compensation, as well as the mix of elements used to
compensate our executive officers. This review is based on a survey of executive compensation paid
by peer companies in the pharmaceutical industry of similar size and stage of development. In
addition, we have historically taken into account input from other independent members of our board
of directors and publicly available data relating to the compensation practices and policies of
other companies within and outside our industry.
-10-
We may retain the services of third-party executive compensation specialists from time to time in
connection with the establishment of cash and equity compensation and related policies.
Elements of Compensation
We will evaluate individual executive performance with a goal of setting compensation at
levels the board or any applicable committee thereof believes are comparable with executives in
other companies of similar size and stage of development while taking into account our relative
performance and our own strategic goals. The compensation received by our executive officers
consists of the following elements:
Base Salary. Base salaries for our executives are established based on the scope of their
responsibilities and individual experience, taking into account competitive market compensation
paid by other companies for similar positions within the pharmaceutical industry. The table below
sets forth the base salary for our Named Executive Officers:

Discretionary Annual Bonus. In addition to base salaries, our compensation committee has the
authority to award discretionary annual bonuses to our executive officers. The annual incentive
bonuses are intended to compensate officers for achieving corporate goals and value-creating
milestones. Each executive officer is eligible for a discretionary annual bonus up to an amount
equal to a specified percentage of such executive officers salary.

Long-Term Incentive Program. We believe that long-term performance is achieved through an
ownership culture that encourages such performance by our executive officers through the use of
stock and stock-based awards. We believe that the use of equity and equity-based awards offers the
best approach to achieving our compensation goals. We have not adopted formal stock ownership
guidelines.
Severance and Change-in-Control Benefits. Certain of our named executive officers are entitled to
certain severance and change of control benefits, the terms of which are described below under
Employment Agreements and Change in Control Arrangements. We believe these severance and
change-in-control benefits are an essential element of our executive compensation package and
assist us in recruiting and retaining talented individuals.
Restricted Stock Grants or Awards. We did not grant any restricted stock or restricted stock awards
pursuant to our equity benefit plans to any of our executive officers in the year ended December
31, 2006. However, our compensation committee, in its discretion, may in the future elect to make
such grants to our executive officers if it deems it advisable.
Other Compensation. We intend to continue to maintain the current benefits and perquisites for our
executive officers; however, our compensation committee, in its discretion, may in the future
revise, amend or add to the benefits and perquisites of any executive officer if it deems it
advisable. The material terms of our employment agreements with our named executive officers are
described below under Employment Agreements and Change in Control Arrangements.
Summary Compensation Table
The following table sets forth a summary for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 of the

At December 31, 1006, Michael Reich had outstanding options to purchase 291,644 shares of our Common Stock. |
We are currently considering compensation policies for directors of the Company. In the
future, we may adopt a policy of paying independent directors an annual retainer and a fee for
attendance at board and committee meetings. We anticipate reimbursing each director for reasonable
travel expenses related to such directors attendance at board of directors and committee meetings.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence. |
Review and Approval of Related Person Transactions.
We review all relationships and transactions in which the company and our directors and
executive officers or their immediate family members are participants to determine whether such
persons have a direct or indirect material interest. The companys legal staff is primarily
responsible for the development and implementation of processes and controls to obtain information
from the directors and executive officers with respect to related person transactions and for then
determining, based on the facts and circumstances, whether the company or a related person has a
direct or indirect material interest in the transaction. As required under SEC rules, transactions
that are determined to be directly or indirectly material to the company or a related person are
disclosed in the companys proxy statement. In addition, the audit committee reviews and approves
or ratifies any related person transaction that is required to be disclosed.

Jane H. Hsiao and Steven D. Rubin, two of our directors, and a trust controlled by Dr. Phillip
Frost, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the board of directors are members of The Frost
Group, LLC, an entity which controls approximately 13.3% of our outstanding voting securities.
Furthermore, the trust that is a member of the Frost Group owns 39% of our outstanding voting
securities and 55.16% of our outstanding common stock. We are parties to a credit agreement with
the Frost Group under which we have access to a line of credit with available borrowings of $12.0
million. To date, $4.0 million has been drawn under the line of credit by Acuity prior to the
Acquisition and the obligation to repay this amount was assumed by us as a result of the
Acquisition. We are obligated to pay interest at a 10% annual rate on the borrowings on the line of
credit. In connection with the entering into the line of credit, we have granted 4,000,000 warrants
to purchase shares of common stock to The Frost Group, LLC.
Our principal corporate office is now located at 4400 Biscayne Blvd, Suite 900, Miami, Florida. We
rent this space from Frost Real Estate Holdings, LLC, which is a company controlled by Dr. Phillip
Frost, our chief executive officer and chairman.
We have an office located at 1250 Pittsford-Victor Road, Building 200, Suite 280, Pittsford, New
York 14534 that consists of approximately 500 square feet of office space. The Company sublets this
office space from RFG Associates, a general partnership in which John A. Paganelli, a director of
the Company, is a partner. Monthly rent is $625 and the sublease may be terminated by either party
upon thirty (30) days notice. We have provided notice of our intention to terminate this lease at
the end of May 2007.
Michael Reich, a director of the Company, is the uncle of Samuel J. Reich, the Companys Executive
Vice President.
The Board uses the standards set forth in rules promulgated by the American Stock Exchange in
determining the independence of each member of its Audit Committee, its Compensation Committee and
its Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. Applying these standards, the Board has
determined that all members of the Companys Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Corporate
Governance and Nominating Committee are each independent as defined by the applicable rules of
the American Stock Exchange and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Our Board of Directors affirmatively determines the independence of each director and nominee for
election as a director using the standards set forth in rules promulgated by American Stock
Exchange for determining the independence of a director, including the consideration of any
relationship which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent
judgment in carrying out the directors responsibilities as a member of the Board. During the
Boards annual review of director independence, the Board determined that other Dr. Rubin, Dr.
Lerner, Mr. Baron, Mr. Eichler and Mr. Reich are independent directors.

Audit Committee Policy for Pre-approval of Independent Auditor Services
The audit committee of the board of directors is required to pre-approve all audit and
non-audit services provided by the Companys independent auditors in order to assure that the
provision of such services does not impair the auditors independence. The audit committee has
established a policy regarding pre-approval of permissible audit, audit-related and other services
provided by the independent auditors, which services are periodically reviewed and revised by the
audit committee. Unless a type of service has received general pre-approval under the policy, the
service will require specific approval by the audit committee. The policy also includes
pre-approved fee levels for specified services, and any proposed service exceeding the established
fee level must be specifically approved by the Committee.
