This Current Report on Form 8-K of Cytogen Corporation, a Delaware Corporation (the “Company”) supplements the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 2007.  For administrative purposes, the members of the Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company recommended, and the Board approved, the following amendments to the Company’s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”) and the Company’s 2006 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2006 Plan”):
 
·  
2004 Plan is amended to increase the maximum number of shares of common stock for which awards may be granted to any participant per calendar year from 50,000 shares to 400,000 shares; and
 
·

In connection with these amendments, the equity grants to Kevin Lokay, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, on November 13, 2007 were terminated and reissued as follows:
 
·  
Mr. Lokay, in accordance with the Company’s 2006 Plan, as amended, received a grant of (i) 350,877 restricted stock units (the “RSU’s”) that will vest upon the successful completion of a performance milestone established by the Compensation Committee of the Board and will expire upon the trigging of the performance milestone event in section (ii); and (ii) 175,439 RSU’s that will vest upon the successful completion of another performance milestone established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and will expire upon the trigging of the performance milestone event in section (i); and
 
·  
Mr. Lokay also received grants of options as follows: (a) options to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, in accordance with the 2004 Plan, as amended, at an exercise price equal to the higher of the of closing price of the Company’s common stock, as listed on the Nasdaq Global Market on December 18, 2007 and $0.57 (the closing price of the Company’s common stock, as listed on the Nasdaq Global Market on November 13, 2007, the original date of grant) and vesting at a rate of 25% on each anniversary of the date of grant; and (b) options to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, in accordance with the 2006 Plan, as amended, at an exercise price equal to the higher of the of closing price of the Company’s common stock, as listed on the Nasdaq Global Market on December 18, 2007 and $0.57 (the closing price of the Company’s common stock, as listed on the Nasdaq Global Market on November 13, 2007, the original date of grant) and vesting at a rate of 25% on each anniversary of the date of grant.  The closing price on December 18, 2007 was $0.52, and therefore, the exercise price for all of the options remained at $0.57.
 


 
Additionally, the Compensation Committee recommended and the Board approved revising Mr. Lokay’s compensation package as follows:
 
·  
Mr. Lokay will receive an annual base salary of $400,000;
 
·  
Mr. Lokay shall earn a annual bonus equal to up to 50% of Mr. Lokay’s annual base salary, subject to achievement of certain performance goals established by the Compensation Committee of the Board;
 
·
