Compensation Plans
Price Legacy Stock Option Plans. The Amended and Restated Price Legacy Corporation 2001 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (Price Legacy Option Plan) provides for the grant to executive officers, other key employees, consultants and directors of Price Legacy of a broad variety of stock-based compensation alternatives such as nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock, dividend equivalent awards, deferred stock awards, stock payment awards, stock appreciation rights and performance awards. The Price Legacy Option Plan currently provides for aggregate award grants of up to 998,250 shares of common stock, after giving effect to Price Legacy's recently completed 1-for-4 reverse stock split. This aggregate limit automatically increases on January 1 of each calendar year by 10% of the aggregate limit in effect for the immediately preceding calendar year, up to a maximum of 1,250,000 shares of common stock, after giving effect to Price Legacy's recently completed 1-for-4 reverse stock split. In connection with the Merger in September 2001, Price Legacy assumed Excel Legacy's stock option plan, which provided for the grant of a broad variety of stock-based compensation alternatives. The number of shares of common stock and the exercise price underlying each option granted under this plan prior to the Merger were adjusted to reflect the exchange ratio in the Merger. No future grants will be made under this plan. As of April 18, 2004 and after giving effect to Price Legacy's recently completed 1-for-4 reverse stock split, options to purchase an aggregate of 713,351 shares of Price Legacy common stock, at prices ranging from $12.40 to $27.60 were outstanding under the Price Legacy Option Plan and the Excel Legacy stock option plan assumed by Price Legacy in the Merger.
401(k) Retirement Plan and Trust. Price Legacy has established a tax-qualified employee savings and retirement plan (401(k) Plan) covering all employees who have been employed by Price Legacy for at least six months and who are at least 21 years of age. Pursuant to the 401(k) Plan, eligible
6
employees may elect to reduce their current compensation by up to the maximum amount determined by the federal government each year and have the amount of such reduction contributed to the 401(k) Plan. Price Legacy contributes three percent of each eligible employee's base salary to the 401(k) Plan. The 401(k) Plan permits, but does not require, additional cash contributions to the 401(k) Plan by Price Legacy. The 401(k) Plan is intended to qualify under the Internal Revenue Code so that contributions to the 401(k) Plan, and income earned on plan contributions, are not taxable to employees until withdrawn, and so that contributions by Price Legacy are deductible by Price Legacy when made for income tax purposes.
Compensation of Directors
During 2003, each non-employee director of Price Legacy received cash compensation of $15,000 for serving on Price Legacy's Board of Directors. In addition, each non-employee director received $1,000 for each Board of Directors meeting attended in person. Each director who sits on a committee of the Board of Directors also received $500 for each committee meeting attended in person. The Chairman of the Audit Committee received additional annual compensation in the amount of $15,000 for service as Chairman of that committee. In addition to directors fees, each non-employee director of Price Legacy is granted an option to purchase 2,500 shares of Price Legacy common stock on the date the director is first elected to the Board of Directors. At each subsequent annual meeting of stockholders at which the non-employee director is re-elected, the director receives an option to purchase 1,250 shares of Price Legacy common stock.
Committees of the Board of Directors
Audit Committee. The Audit Committee, established by the Board of Directors in accordance with the requirements of Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act, consists of Messrs. Wolcott (Chairman), Goldberg and Goodman. During 2003, the Audit Committee consisted of Messrs. Melvin L. Keating, Jack McGrory and Keene Wolcott and held seven meetings. Pursuant to the terms of a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors, the Audit Committee reviews the annual audits of Price Legacy's independent public accountants, reviews and evaluates internal accounting controls, selects Price Legacy's independent public accountants, reviews and passes upon (or ratifies) related party transactions and conducts the reviews and examinations as it deems necessary with respect to the practices and policies of, and the relationship between, Price Legacy and its independent public accountants. All current members of the Audit Committee are independent, as defined in Nasdaq Stock Market qualification standards.
Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Cahill (Chairman) and Galinson. During 2003, the Compensation Committee consisted of Messrs. Reuben S. Leibowitz, James F. Cahill and Murray Galinson and held one meeting. The Compensation Committee reviews compensation of senior officers of Price Legacy and administers its executive compensation policies and stock based compensation plans. All members of the Compensation Committee are independent, as defined in the Nasdaq Stock Market qualification standards.
Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee was formed in February 2004 and currently consists of Messrs. Wolcott (Chairman), Goldberg and Goodman. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee identifies and recommends to the Board of Directors qualified candidates for nomination as directors, develops and recommends to the Board of Directors Price Legacy's corporate governance principles and oversees the evaluation of the Board of Directors and management of Price Legacy. All members of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee are independent, as defined in the Nasdaq Stock Market qualification standards.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
No interlocking relationship existed during 2003 or currently exists between any member of the Compensation Committee and any member of any other company's Board of Directors or compensation committee.

Set forth below in full is the Report of Price Legacy's Compensation Committee regarding the compensation paid by Price Legacy to its executive officers during 2003:
The philosophy of Price Legacy's compensation program is to employ, retain and reward executives capable of leading Price Legacy in achieving its business objectives. These objectives include:
The accomplishment of these objectives is measured against the conditions characterizing the industry within which Price Legacy operates. Price Legacy and the Compensation Committee believe this philosophy will properly motivate the executives, and thereby promote achievement of Price Legacy's business objectives.
Components of Executive Compensation
Base Salary. Base salary is established by Price Legacy's Compensation Committee based on each executive's job responsibilities, level of experience, individual performance and contribution to the business, with reference to the competitive marketplace for executive officers at other similar companies. The Compensation Committee believes that the base salaries paid to executive officers of Price Legacy are at competitive levels relative to the various markets from which Price Legacy attracts its executive talent. The base salary and other employment benefits for Price Legacy's executive officers are provided pursuant to employment agreements with the executive officers.
Annual Cash Incentive Bonus. Annual cash incentive bonuses are established by the Compensation Committee at the end of the fiscal year and are based on Price Legacy's performance, individual performance and compensation surveys. Bonuses awarded in prior years are also taken into consideration. While executive officers of Price Legacy with employment agreements historically were able to receive up to 100% of their base salary in the form of a bonus, in connection with the execution of amended and restated employment agreements with these executive officers, the Compensation Committee established a Performance Based Incentive Plan intended to provide cash bonus awards to these executive officers if Price Legacy achieves strategic objectives established by the Compensation Committee.
Long-Term Incentives. Long-term incentives generally include awards of stock options, however under Price Legacy's stock option and incentive plan they may also include a variety of stock-based compensation alternatives such as restricted stock, dividend equivalent awards, deferred stock awards, stock payment awards, stock appreciation rights and performance awards. The objective for the awards is to closely align executive interests with the longer term interests of stockholders. These awards, which are at risk and dependent on the creation of incremental stockholder value or the attainment of cumulative financial targets over several years, represent a portion of the total compensation opportunity provided for the executive officers. Award sizes are based on individual performance, level of responsibility, the individual's potential to make significant contributions to Price Legacy and award levels at other similar companies.
8
Compensation of Chief Executive Officer
During 2003, Gary B. Sabin served as Price Legacy's Chief Executive Officer until October 15, 2003, and Jack McGrory served as Price Legacy's Chief Executive Officer beginning October 15, 2003. During 2003, prior to his resignation, Mr. Sabin was compensated pursuant to an employment agreement with Price Legacy at an annual rate of $325,000. Mr. Sabin was eligible to participate in Price Legacy's stock option and incentive plan. Mr. McGrory receives no salary from and is not party to any employment agreement with Price Legacy in connection with serving as Price Legacy's Chief Executive Officer. Mr. McGrory is eligible to participate in Price Legacy's stock option and incentive plan.
Tax Considerations
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally limits the tax deductions a public corporation may take for compensation paid to its Chief Executive Officer and its other four most highly compensated executive officers to $1 million per executive per year. Price Legacy does not presently anticipate that any of its executive officers will exceed the non-performance based compensation threshold of Section 162(m). The Compensation Committee intends to evaluate Price Legacy's executive compensation policies and benefit plans during the coming year to determine whether any actions to maintain the tax deductibility of executive compensation are in the best interest of Price Legacy's stockholders.
The foregoing report has been furnished by the Compensation Committee.

Indebtedness of Management
In 1998, Excel Legacy loaned to some of its officers, including certain of the Named Executive Officers, an aggregate amount of approximately $10.9 million representing approximately 50% of the purchase price of shares of Excel Legacy common stock purchased by the officers at that time. Price Legacy assumed the loans receivable from these officers in the Merger. Following the Merger, the loans were secured by shares of Price Legacy common stock owned by the officers. Loans to some of the officers were recourse against the officers in the amount of any deficiency between the value of the pledged shares of Price Legacy common stock and the outstanding balance of the loan. The remaining loans were non-recourse, but were secured by the pledged shares of Price Legacy common stock. One of the officers used personal funds to repay his loan in its entirety prior to maturity. The remaining loans matured on March 31, 2003. On that date, Price Legacy acquired from the officers with non-recourse loans the common stock pledged as collateral and cancelled the officers' remaining obligations under the loans. In the case of the recourse loans, Price Legacy acquired from the officers the common stock pledged as collateral, and the officers repaid the remaining balance of their loans.
The following table provides, with respect to each executive officer who had a loan from Price Legacy described above, the outstanding balance of the loan at maturity, the number of pledged shares surrendered to Price Legacy, and the recourse payment from the officer to Price Legacy (if any).
