Item 5.02. Departure, election or appointment of directors or officers; compensatory arrangements of certain officers.

(e) At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 21, 2013, the stockholders of Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the amendment and restatement of the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Amended and Restated 2011 Plan”), which had been previously approved by the Board of Directors, subject to stockholder approval. The amendments increase the available shares under the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan by 2,500,000 shares. In addition, the amendments reduce the maximum exercise period for stock options and stock appreciation rights from 10 years to 7 years and reduce the mandatory minimum vesting period for restricted stock unit and restricted stock awards from three years to one year. The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Amended and Restated 2011 Plan, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein. The Amended and Restated 2011 Plan was also described in Proposal 2 of the Company’s proxy statement for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 21, 2013.

 

Item 5.03. Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

In connection with the expiration of the Rights, following authorization from the Company’s Board of Directors, the Company filed a Certificate of Elimination with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on May 22, 2013. The Certificate of Elimination eliminates from the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation all matters set forth in the Certificate of Designations with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock. No shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued or outstanding at the time of the filing of the Certificate of Elimination. A copy of the Certificate of Elimination has been filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
