Explanatory Note
On March 4, 2011, Endo Pharmaceuticals Holdings Inc. (Endo) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to report that, on March 3, 2011, the Registrant increased the size of its board of directors from eight to nine and appointed David B. Nash, M.D., M.B.A. to fill this new vacancy. Endo is filing this Form 8-K/A to amend and restate Item 5.02 of the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 4, 2011 to correct errors in the description of the Registrants non-employee director compensation policy, pursuant to which Dr. Nash will be compensated, as well as an inadvertent omission in the description of the Registrants relationship with Dr. Nash.
Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors of Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
On March 3, 2011, the Registrant increased the size of its board of directors from eight to nine and appointed David B. Nash, M.D., M.B.A. to fill this new vacancy. Dr. Nash is the Founding Dean of the Jefferson School of Population Health at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia. Dr. Nash is internationally recognized for his work in outcomes management, medical staff development and quality-of-care improvement. Dr. Nash is also a member of the Board of Directors of Humana, headquartered in Louisville, Ky.
Dr. Nashs compensation as a director will be pursuant to the Registrants standard non-employee director compensation policy in effect from time to time. Pursuant to the Companys current standard policy regarding non-employee director compensation, a director is entitled to receive the following compensation (1) an annual cash retainer of $50,000, (2) stock-based awards valued at $150,000, consisting of 100% of restricted stock units to be awarded annually under the Endo Pharmaceuticals Holdings Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan in March of each year and (3) a per-meeting fee of $2,250 for each board meeting attended.
There are no arrangements or understandings pursuant to which Dr. Nash was selected as a director of the Registrant. While the Registrant currently sponsors a fellowship at the Jefferson School of Population Health of Thomas Jefferson University where Dr. Nash is the founding and current dean, this fellowship, which in the aggregate totals approximately $180,000 over its two-year term (approximately $90,000 of which remains outstanding), ends in 2012, and the Registrant does not intend to renew it. Dr. Nash has no other relationships or related transactions with the Registrant that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K.
A Press Release reporting Dr. Nashs appointment to the Registrants board of directors was filed and attached as Exhibit 99.1 to Endos Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 4, 2011 and is incorporated herein by reference.
