  Item 1.01               Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.
  New Indemnity Agreements
  for Directors and Officers
  The Board of Directors of
  Conceptus, Inc. (the "
  Company
  ") approved a new form of Indemnity Agreement
  (the "
  New Indemnity Agreement
  ") to be entered into with the directors
  and officers of the Company.   Effective April 17, 2008, copies
  of the New Indemnity Agreement were executed on behalf of the Company and were
  distributed to the eligible individuals for counter-signature. For the current
  directors and executive officers of the Company who had entered into the
  Company's previous form of indemnity agreement, the entry into the New Indemnity
  Agreement will amend and restate the previous agreement.  As is the case
  with the previous form of indemnity agreement, the New Indemnity Agreement
  commits the Company to indemnify the indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted
  under Delaware law.
  The foregoing summary of
  the New Indemnity Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1
  to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by
  reference.
  Change of Control
  Agreements
  On April 22, 2008,
  the Company entered into a Change of Control Agreement (a "
  COC Agreement
  ")
   with each of Darrin Uecker, Executive
  Vice President, R&D and Operations ("
  Uecker
  "), and Ulric Coté, Executive
  Vice President, Sales ("
  Coté
  " and together with Uecker, the "
  EVPs
  ").
  These COC Agreements supersede the previous change of control agreements to
  which the EVPs were a party. Copies of each EVP's COC Agreement are attached
  hereto as Exhibits 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, and are incorporated herein by
  reference. The foregoing description of the COC Agreements are qualified in their
  entirety by reference to the full text of each COC Agreement.
  Under
  the terms of the COC Agreement, if the respective EVP's employment with the
  Company is terminated in the following circumstances at any time within two years
  after a Change of Control (as defined in the COC Agreement and described below),
  then such EVP shall be entitled to receive severance benefits as follows:
  ·
  Upon a voluntarily resignation or a termination
  for Cause (as defined in the Agreement), the EVP shall not be entitled to
  receive severance payments; and
  ·
  Upon an Involuntary Termination (as defined
  in the Agreement), the EVP shall be entitled to receive the following: (1) bi-weekly
  severance payments for 18 months following such termination (the "
  Severance Period
  ") at the salary rate
  which the EVP was receiving at the time of such termination; (2) monthly
  severance payments during the Severance Period equal to 1/12
  th
  of
  the EVP's target bonus for the fiscal year in which the termination occurs; (3) continuation
  of all of the EVP's health and life insurance benefits during the Severance
  Period; and (4) outplacement services with a total value not to exceed
  $15,000.
  In addition, upon a
  Change of Control, each Company stock option or other equity award granted to such
  EVP will become fully vested and immediately exercisable.
  Payments and benefits to be received by such EVP pursuant to the COC Agreement are
  subject to reduction to the extent any such payments or benefits constitute "parachute
  payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code
  and would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the
  Internal Revenue Code.
  For purposes of the COC Agreement,
  a "Change of Control" means the occurrence of any of the following events:
  2
  (i)            Any
  "Person" (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the
  Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) is or becomes the "Beneficial
  Owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or
  indirectly, of securities of the Company representing fifty percent (50%) or
  more of the total voting power represented by the Company's then outstanding
  voting securities without the
  approval of the Board of Directors of the Company;
  (ii)           A
  merger or consolidation of the Company whether or not approved by the Board of
  Directors of the Company, other than a merger or consolidation which would
  result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior
  thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being
  converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) at least fifty
  percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of
  the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger
  or consolidation, or the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete
  liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the
  Company of all or substantially all of the Company's assets; or
  (iii)          A
  change in the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company, as a result
  of which fewer than a majority of the directors are Incumbent Directors. "Incumbent
  Directors" shall mean directors who either (A) are directors of the
  Company as of April 22, 2007 or (B) are elected, or nominated for
  election, to the Board of Directors of the Company with the affirmative votes
  of at least a majority of the Incumbent Directors at the time of such election
  or nomination (but shall not include an individual whose election or nomination
  is in connection with an actual or threatened proxy contest relating to the
  election of directors to the Company).
  Each
  COC Agreement terminates upon the earlier of the date on which the EVP ceases
  to be employed as an executive officer or director-level employee of the
  Company, or two years after the occurrence of a Change of Control.
  Item 5.02
  Departure Of Directors Or Certain Officers; Election Of Directors;
  Appointment Of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements Of Certain Officers.
  On
  April 17, 2008, Annette Bianchi notified the Board of Directors of the
  Company of her decision not to stand for re-election to the Board of Directors
  at the Company's annual meeting for stockholders in 2008 (the "
  2008 Annual
  Meeting
  "). Ms. Bianchi will continue to serve as a director of the
  Company until her term expires at the 2008 Annual Meeting, which is scheduled
  to be held on June 4, 2008. Ms. Bianchi is a member of the Compensation
  Committee.
  Also
  on April 17, 2008, in accordance with the Company's Amended and Restated By-laws,
  the Board of Directors reduced the number of authorized directors from seven to
  six, effective upon the date of the 2008 Annual Meeting. See Item 5.03 for more
  information.
  Item 5.03               Amendments to Articles of
  Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
  On
  April 18, 2008, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an
  Amendment No. 1 to the Company's Amended and Restated By-Laws (the "
  Amendment
  ")
  to reduce of the size of the authorized number of directors from seven (7) directors
  to six (6) directors, such Amendment to be effective upon the date of the
  2008 Annual Meeting.

  is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text thereof.
