Compensation Discussion and Analysis

We compensate our management through a combination of base salary, annual incentive bonuses and long-term equity-based awards that are designed to be competitive with those of comparable companies and to align executive performance with the long-term interests of our stockholders.

This section discusses the principles underlying our executive compensation policies and decisions and the most important factors relevant to an analysis of these policies and decisions. It provides qualitative information regarding the manner and context in which compensation is awarded to and earned by our executive officers and places in perspective the data presented in the tables and narrative that follow.

Because our company was a part of the operations of Old Abraxis until the separation occurred on November 13, 2007, our compensation philosophy was derived from the policies previously adopted by the compensation committee of Old Abraxis prior to the separation. Since the separation, our management has engaged compensation consultants to review various aspects of our employee compensation, including for our executive officers, based upon us being a stand alone company (including any peer groups that they may use).
