Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Alan B. Miller, the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and President of Universal Health Services, Inc. (the “Company”) has agreed to provide a portion of funding for the construction of a new business school building for The Mason School of Business at The College of William and Mary, his alma mater. In recognition of his leadership and support, The College of William and Mary announced in March 2006 that the new business school building will be named for Mr. Miller.
On July 25, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), in honor of Mr. Miller, authorized the Company to fund a portion of Mr. Miller’s gift to The College of William and Mary in the aggregate amount of $5 million, payable in five annual installments commencing in 2006. It is likely that the Company’s contribution will be viewed as compensation to Mr. Miller for tax and accounting purposes. The Company anticipates that it will take a charge for the present value of the aggregate contribution amount in the third quarter of 2006 and that a deduction for income tax purposes will not be available.
