<font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman" size="2"><font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman" size="2">Penford maintains the 2006
Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2006 Incentive Plan”)
pursuant to which various stock-based awards may be granted to
employees, directors and consultants. At the Annual Meeting of
Shareholders of the Company held on January 26, 2012, the
Company’s shareholders approved the amended Penford
Corporation 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan and the number of shares
of the Company’s common stock available for issuance under
the 2006 Incentive Plan was increased by 800,000 shares. As of
August 31, 2012, the aggregate number of shares of the
Company’s common stock that were available to be issued as
awards under the 2006 Incentive Plan is 353,616. In addition, any
shares previously granted under the 1994 Stock Option Plan which
are subsequently forfeited or not exercised will be available for
future grants under the 2006 Incentive Plan. Non-qualified stock
options and restricted stock awards granted under the 2006
Incentive Plan generally vest ratably over one to four years and
stock options expire seven years from the date of grant. In
addition, the Company may from time to time award compensatory
stock-based awards outside of the 2006 Incentive Plan to newly
hired employees.</font></font></p>

<font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman" size="2"><font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman" size="2">The Company utilizes the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of
stock options on the date of grant. This model derives the fair
value of stock options based on certain assumptions related to
expected stock price volatility, expected option life, risk-free
interest rate and dividend yield. The Company’s expected
volatility is based on the historical volatility of the
Company’s stock price over the most recent period
commensurate with the expected term of the stock option award. The
estimated expected option life is based primarily on historical
employee exercise patterns and considers whether and the extent to
which the options are in-the-money. The risk-free interest rate
assumption is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve appropriate
for the term of the Company’s stock options awards and the
selected dividend yield assumption was determined in view of the
Company’s historical and estimated dividend payout. The
Company has no reason to believe that the expected volatility of
its stock price or its option exercise patterns would differ
significantly from historical volatility or option
exercises.</font></font></p>
