ITEM 5.02. Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.
On June 13, 2007, the stockholders of OSI Pharmaceuticals, Inc., or OSI, approved an amendment to the OSI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan, or the Plan, to increase the number of equity awards issuable under the Plan by 7,000,000 shares, to a total of 13,800,000 shares. The Plan permits the issuance of options, restricted stock, stock bonuses and stock appreciation rights upon such terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee appointed by the Board of Directors determines. Persons eligible as participants under the Plan include directors, officers and employees of OSI or its subsidiaries. A copy of the Plan, as amended, is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. As a result of the approval of the amended Plan by OSI’s stockholders, the Stock Incentive Plan for New Hires, or the New Hire Plan, adopted by OSI’s Board of Directors on June 14, 2006, has terminated. No awards have ever been made under the New Hire Plan.
As described in OSI’s Proxy Statement dated May 4, 2007, each non-employee director of OSI receives initial and annual option grants and restricted stock awards upon his or her election or re-election to the Board of Directors. The restricted stock awards were previously in the form of shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units, or RSUs, which represent the right of a director to receive one share of OSI common stock upon vesting. On June 13, 2007, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the ability of the non-employee directors to elect to take their grants in the form of deferred stock units, or DSUs, in lieu of restricted stock or RSUs. Each DSU represents the right of a director to receive one share of OSI common stock upon the earlier of the director’s termination from service on the Board of Directors or on a date no earlier than two years from the date of grant, as designated by the director. Like restricted stock and RSUs, awards of DSUs vest ratably on an annual basis over four years from the date of grant. OSI intends to file the form of DSU agreement used for its non-employee directors as an exhibit to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2007.
