Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On May 25, 2011, Healthways, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Master Services Agreement (the “Agreement”) with HP Enterprise Services, LLC (“HP”) pursuant to which the Company will outsource certain application development and technology infrastructure management services to HP.  Under the Agreement, HP will provide applications development and applications management services to the Company to further accelerate the development of the Company’s proprietary applications and infrastructure, including the further development and support of the Company’s EMBRACE® platform.

The initial term of the Agreement is ten years, commencing May 25, 2011.  The Company may elect to extend the Agreement for two additional periods of 18 months each by providing six months written notice to HP prior to the then-current expiration date of the Agreement.  The Company may terminate all or a portion of the Agreement for any reason after May 25, 2013, subject to the payment of certain termination charges and wind-down costs to HP.

The Company will pay HP for its services under the Agreement through a combination of fixed and variable charges, with the variable charges fluctuating based on the Company’s actual need for such services as well as the applicable service levels and statements of work.  The Company currently anticipates that it will pay approximately $380 million to HP in fees for services provided pursuant to the Agreement over the initial ten-year term.
