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

On January 25, 2017, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Progenics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Progenics”) approved an amendment and restatement of Progenics’ bylaws (the “Bylaws” and as amended and restated, the “Amended Bylaws”) effective immediately and as follows:

Section 3.05 (Advance Notice of Stockholder Nominees) and Section 3.06 (Advance Notice Provision for Proposing Business at the Annual Meeting) were added to establish advance notice requirements for stockholders to make nominations of persons for election to the Board or propose other business at any annual or special meeting of stockholders. In accordance with the advance notice requirements contained in Sections 3.05 and 3.06, commencing after the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders, a stockholder who proposes to make nominations of persons for election to the Board or bring other business must provide written notice to Progenics within the time periods set forth in those sections. A stockholder’s written notice must include certain information concerning the stockholder and each proposal or each nominee, as specified in Sections 3.05 and 3.06, respectively, and otherwise comply with the requirements of the respective section. Further, any director nominee nominated by a stockholder shall be required to submit a written questionnaire with respect to the nominee’s background, qualifications, stock ownership and independence, as well as representations regarding certain voting commitments or third-party compensation arrangements.

Section 3.07 (Proxy Access for Director Nominations) was added to permit, commencing after the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders, a stockholder, or a group of no more than twenty (20) stockholders, owning at least three percent of Progenics’ outstanding common stock continuously for at least three years, to nominate and include in Progenics’ proxy materials for an annual meeting of stockholders director nominees constituting up to the greater of two (or 25% of the total number of directors then serving on the Board, whichever is greater). Such inclusion is subject to the nominating stockholder/s and director nominee/s satisfying the disclosure, eligibility and procedural requirements set forth in Section 3.07.

The descriptions of the changes in the Amended Bylaws contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended Bylaws, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
