Item 5.02(e).

Compensation and Bonus Plans

At the 2007 annual meeting of stockholders of SeaChange International, Inc. (“SeaChange”) held July 18, 2007, the stockholders of SeaChange approved an amendment to SeaChange’s 2005 Equity Compensation and Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”) to:

 

   

increase the total number of authorized shares under the 2005 Plan by 1,300,000 shares, so that the aggregate number of awards that may be granted under the 2005 Plan is 2,800,000, and permit all of these additional shares to be used for any form of award under the 2005 Plan; and

 

   

prohibit “liberal share counting”, meaning that the number of shares available for grant under the 2005 Plan would not be increased by the tendering of shares in payment of a stock option, the withholding of shares to satisfy a tax withholding obligation, or shares repurchased with option proceeds.

As described in SeaChange’s proxy statement filed with the SEC on May 25, 2007, the Board of Directors had previously approved this amendment on May 22, 2007.
