EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

     The information required by this item concerning our executive officers is
incorporated by reference to the information set forth in the section entitled
"Executive Officers of the Company" at the end of Part I of the Company's Form
10-K.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

     Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act ("Section 16(a)") requires our executive
officers, directors and persons who own more than ten percent of our Common
Stock, to file initial reports of ownership on Form 3 and changes in ownership
on Form 4 or Form 5 with the SEC and the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. Such executive officers, directors and ten-percent shareholders
are also required by SEC rules to furnish Pixar with copies of all such forms
that they file.


                                       3
<PAGE>   5

     Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by us and
written representations from certain reporting persons that no Forms 5 were
required for such persons, we believe that during fiscal 2000 all Section 16(a)
filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and 10%
shareholders were complied with, except that a Form 5 for John Lasseter
reporting an option granted in fiscal 2000 will be filed late.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

     In March 2001, we entered into an employment agreement with John Lasseter
(the "Employment Agreement"), which has a term of 10 years. The Employment
Agreement supercedes our prior employment agreement with Mr. Lasseter, which was
entered into in February 1997. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr.
Lasseter received a signing bonus of $4,940,000. The Employment Agreement also
provides for a current annual salary of $2,500,000 with 5% annual increases. In
connection with the Employment Agreement, Mr. Lasseter was previously granted an
option to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at the fair market value
on the date of such grant. The option vests on an equal monthly basis over the
ten-year term of the agreement, except for options that vest on the last month
will vest on the penultimate month of this ten-year period. Under the Employment
Agreement, Mr. Lasseter will direct three Feature Films (a Feature Film is
defined as a feature-length animated motion picture) and he has the option to
direct certain sequels to Feature Films he has directed if we elect to produce
such sequels within 12 years of the initial release of the applicable Feature
Film. In addition, at our request, Mr. Lasseter will provide writing services
and supervisory services to create stories, treatments and screenplays for
Feature Films, and Mr. Lasseter will also provide executive producing services
on Feature Films, made-for-home videos and short-subject motion pictures that
Mr. Lasseter does not direct. During the term of the Employment Agreement, Mr.
Lasseter is prohibited from accepting other employment and from becoming
financially interested or associated with any entity engaged in a related or
competitive business. We can terminate the Employment Agreement at any time for
any reason. However, if we terminate Mr. Lasseter's employment without cause, we
must (1) pay an amount equal to 75% of the balance of the salary Mr. Lasseter
would have earned through the remainder of the term of the Employment Agreement
and (2) accelerate the unvested portion of Mr. Lasseter's option so that the
option would be exercisable in full. In addition, Mr. Lasseter would be able to
accept employment with any third party.

     In September 1999, we agreed with Ann Mather that in the event that Ms.
Mather is terminated for reasons other than cause during her first 24 months of
employment, we will pay an amount equal to her then-current monthly salary times
the number of months remaining in her first 24 months of employment.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

     Directors who are not employees of Pixar receive a fee of $1,000 for each
meeting attended of the Board of Directors and a fee of $1,000 for each meeting
attended of a committee of the Board of Directors if such committee meeting is
not held in conjunction with a meeting of the Board of Directors. All directors
are reimbursed for expenses incurred in attending such meetings.

     Non-employee directors are eligible to receive option grants pursuant to
our 1995 Director Option Plan (the "Director Plan") which was adopted by the
Board of Directors in October 1995, approved by the shareholders in November
1995 and took effect in November 1995. A total of 200,000 shares of Common Stock
has been reserved for issuance under the Director Plan. As of March 15, 2001,
there were 160,000 options outstanding under the Director Plan. The Director
Plan provides for an automatic grant of an option to purchase 30,000 shares of
Common Stock (the "First Option") to each non-employee director who first
becomes a non-employee director (other than an employee director who ceases to
be an employee but remains a director) after the effective date of the Director
Plan on the date on which such person first becomes a non-employee director.
Beginning on the third anniversary of the date he or she became an outside
director, each non-employee director will automatically be granted an option to
purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock (a "Subsequent Option") each year on the
date of such anniversary, provided he or she is then a non-employee director.
Each non-employee director will be eligible to receive a Subsequent Option,
regardless of whether such non-employee director was eligible to receive a First
Option. First Options and each Subsequent Option will have a term of ten years.
One-third of the shares subject to a First Option will vest one year after its
date of grant and an additional one-third will vest at the end of each year
thereafter, provided that the optionee continues to serve as a director on such
dates. All of the shares subject to a Subsequent Option will vest one year after
the date of the option grant, provided that the optionee continues to serve as a
director on such date. The exercise prices of the First Option and each
Subsequent Option will be 100% of the fair market value per share of Pixar's
Common Stock on the date of the grant of the option. Mr. Roth was granted a
First Option in October 2000 at an exercise price of $29.63 per share. Ms. Barad
was a Subsequent Option in July 2000 at an exercise price of $35.00 per share.
Mr. Sonsini was granted a Subsequent Option in April 2000 at an exercise price
of $39.38 per share. Messrs. Brittenham and Graziano were each granted
Subsequent Options in August 2000 at an exercise price of $32.00 per share. Mr.
Roth and Mr. Levy, non-employee directors of Pixar, will be eligible for
Subsequent Options under the Director Plan on the third anniversary of the dates
they became directors. Messrs. Sonsini, Brittenham and Graziano and Ms. Barad,
also non-employee directors, are eligible for Subsequent Options each year on
the anniversary of the dates they became directors.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

     Pixar's Compensation Committee was formed in 1995 and is currently composed
of Ms. Barad and Mr. Graziano. No interlocking relationships exist between any
member of Pixar's Board of Directors or Compensation Committee and any member of
the board of directors or compensation committee of any other company, nor has
any such interlocking relationship existed in the past. No member of the
Compensation Committee is or was formerly an officer or an employee of Pixar.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     We have engaged the law firm of Ziffren, Brittenham, Branca & Fischer
("ZBB&F") to handle certain matters. Skip M. Brittenham, a director of Pixar, is
a senior partner of the firm. We have also engaged the law firm of Wilson
Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati ("WSGR") to handle certain legal matters. Larry W.
Sonsini, a director of Pixar, is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the
firm. Payments by us to each of ZBB&F and WSGR did not exceed five percent of
either law firm's respective gross revenues in the last fiscal year of either
such firm.

     We believe that all of the transactions set forth above were made on terms
no less favorable to us than could have been obtained from unaffiliated third
parties. All future transactions, including loans, between us and our officers,
directors and principal shareholders and their affiliates will be approved by a
majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the independent and
disinterested directors of the Board of Directors, and will be on terms no less
favorable to us than could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
