Item 8.01 Other Events
On March 24, 2006, the board of directors of Nord Resources Corporation (the "Company") adopted resolutions approving and authorizing, subject to stockholder approval, the Company's 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan").

The Company's shares of common stock were subsequently listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") on January 1, 2008. The TSX subsequently reviewed the Plan and requested certain minor amendments to clarify certain provisions and make the Plan comply with its policies and, accordingly, the Company amended the Plan and obtained stockholder approval for the amendments at its annual general meeting held on October 15, 2008.
The Company has adopted resolutions approving an Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Incentive Plan incorporating the amendments to the Plan requested by the TSX. A copy of the Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Incentive Plan is included herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
