PART III

Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant

The following table sets forth certain information concerning our directors and executive officers as of March 31, 2002:

             
NAME   AGE   POSITION

 
 
Paul R. Dupee, Jr.     58     Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors
George H. Bigelow     59     Director
John H. Gutfreund     71     Director
Simon J. Whitmey     55     Director
Alan D. Bloom     56     Senior Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel
Patricia A. Fitzpatrick     50     Treasurer
Joseph W. White     43     Chief Financial Officer and Director

Compliance With Section 16(A) of The Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Mr. Dupee failed to file a Form 4 on a timely basis to report the sale of 16,800 shares of common stock in December, 2001. The required Form 4 was file on February 6, 2002. Based solely upon our review of the Forms 3, 4 and 5 and amendments thereto furnished to us, we believe that there were no other instances where our executive officers or directors failed to file all required reports on a timely basis.

Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors

Our board of directors has two committees — the audit committee and the compensation committee.

The Audit Committee consists of three independent directors: Mr. Bigelow, Mr. Gutfreund and Mr. Whitmey. Mr. Whitmey is chairman of the Audit Committee. The audit committee met with our independent auditors and chief financial officer prior to the filing of our Form 10-K annual report to review the 2001 audited financial statements.

The Compensation Committee, which is composed of Mr. Bigelow, Mr. Whitmey and Mr. Dupee (ex-officio), serves as the stock option committee for our stock option plans and approves any employment agreements with management and changes in compensation for our executive officers.

Excluding actions by unanimous written consent, during 2001, the Board of Directors held five meetings and the Audit Committee held four meetings. Our Compensation Committee did not meet in 2001.

During 2001, all of our directors attended at least 80% of the meetings of the board and any committee of which they are members.

Item 11. Executive Compensation

Shown below is information concerning the annual and long-term compensation for services in all capacities for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, of (i) our chief executive officer and (ii) the other four most highly compensated executive officers for 2001 other than the chief executive officer (collectively the “Named Officers”):

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

The Maxicare Health Plans, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan is an unfunded retirement plan that covers key executives as designated by the Board. As of December 31, 2001, there were five participants in this plan, one of whom (Mr. Bloom) was employed by us as of that date. The normal retirement benefit is payable at age 65; however, the participant may elect to receive an early retirement benefit whereupon such benefit will be reduced by 1/240 for each month by which the distribution precedes the normal retirement date. In addition, the plan provides for a pre-retirement death benefit equal to 200% of the Participant’s average compensation. No payments are due under the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan before February, 2002.

Compensation of Directors

During 2001, non-employee directors of the Company received compensation for their services as directors. These directors were Robert M. Davies (through May 2, 2001), Elwood I. Kleaver, Jr. (through March 14, 2001), George H. Bigelow, John H. Gutfreund and Simon J. Whitmey. During 2001, Mr. Davies earned $12,000; Mr. Kleaver earned $1,500; Mr. Bigelow earned $21,000; Mr. Whitmey earned $21,750; and Mr. Gutfreund earned $21,750. During 2002, the non-employee directors will receive cash compensation for their services in the amount of $30,000 per year, plus $750 per meeting. In addition, directors are entitled to be reimbursed for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their services as directors of the Company. Directors have received no compensation for their services in the third and fourth quarters of 2001.

There were no grants of stock options in 2001. Previously, the non-employee directors have received options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to the market price at the date of grant. Set forth below is a schedule of the options that were granted to our present non-employee directors during 2000 and 1999:

                         
    # OF           EXERCISE PRICE
DIRECTOR   OPTIONS   DATE OF GRANT   PER SHARE

 
 
 
George H. Bigelow
    4,000     November 3, 2000   $ 5.00  
John H. Gutfreund
    4,000     November 3, 2000   $ 5.00  
Simon J. Whitmey
    4,000     November 3, 2000   $ 5.00  

The options vest six months from the date of grant and expire ten years from the date of grant provided the director continues to serve as a director of the Company. In the event of termination of the directorship, such options expire one year from the date of such termination.
