Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

A. On January 7, 2008, the Board of Directors, or Board, of Hudson Technologies, Inc., or the Registrant, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board, increased the fiscal year 2007 cash bonus pool available for bonuses to Registrant's executive officers and to several other key employees, and approved awards of cash bonuses to its executive officers, as well as to certain of its key employees. The amounts of the bonuses to be paid to the executive officers are:

James R. Buscemi, the Registrant's Chief Financial Officer, will receive a total cash bonus of $45,000;

Brian F. Coleman, the Registrant's President and Chief Operating Officer, will receive a total cash bonus of $80,000;

Charles F. Harkins, the Registrant's Vice President of Sales, will receive a total cash bonus of $79,000;

Stephen P. Mandracchia, the Registrant's Secretary and Vice President Legal and Regulatory, will receive a total cash bonus of $60,000; and

Kevin J. Zugibe, the Registrant's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, will receive a total cash bonus of $90,000.

These cash bonuses will be paid during the first quarter of 2008.

B. On January 11, 2008, the Board, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board, voted to establish a bonus pool at the end of fiscal year 2008 for the payment of cash bonuses to some or all of the Registrant's executive officers, as well as to certain of its key employees. The amount of the bonus pool has not been determined, but will be based upon the Registrant achieving earnings for the fiscal year 2008 in excess of a pre-determined level established by the Board, or Benchmark, up to a maximum bonus pool of $400,000. In the event the Registrant's 2008 earnings exceed the Benchmark, cash bonuses may be paid out of the bonus pool to some or all of the executive officers and/or the key employees. The Board, after consideration of the recommendations of the Compensation Committee of the Board, will determine which, if any, of the executive officers and key employees are to receive a cash bonus, as well as the amount of any cash bonus to be paid to an executiv e officer or to a key employee, taking into account the overall 2008 financial results of the Registrant as well as on the personal performance of each executive officer and key employee during 2008.
