Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 1, 2013, Triple-S Salud, Inc., a Puerto Rico insurance company ("Triple-S") and health insurance subsidiary of Triple-S Management Corporation (the "Company"), amended and restated its agreement with the Puerto Rico Health Insurance Administration ("ASES" by its Spanish acronym). The amended and restated agreement (the "Contract") extends the administration of the provision of the physical health component of the MI Salud program in service regions in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico currently administered by Triple-S for a 12-month period. The Contract also transfers the administration of the three remaining service regions to Triple-S beginning after the completion of a transition period ending no later than October 1, 2013 (the "Transition"). The Contract expires on June 30, 2014.

Pursuant to the MI Salud program, the Government of Puerto Rico provides physical and behavioral health services to Medicaid beneficiaries and recipients of the Children’s Health Insurance Program, as well as children in foster care, certain individuals and families eligible based on income, and certain Government employees, pensioners and veterans.

Under the terms of the Contract, Triple-S is a third-party administrator responsible for the provision of administrative services to MI Salud enrollees in the following designated regions: West, North, Metro North, San Juan, Northeast, Virtual (which covers services provided throughout Puerto Rico to children in foster care and certain victims of domestic violence) and, after completion of the Transition, Southwest, Southeast and East.

The administrative services to be provided include case, disease and utilization management, network management and credentialing, enrollment and enrollee services and claims administration, among others. Triple-S, however, is not financially responsible or otherwise at risk for the provision of services to enrollees of MI Salud.

In consideration for the services provided under the Contract, Triple-S will receive an administrative fee equal to $5.51 per member per month (pmpm) for the North Region, $5.82 pmpm for the Metro North Region, $8.21 pmpm for the San Juan Region, $6.17 pmpm for the Northeast Region and $5.08 pmpm for the West Region. Upon completion of the Transition, but no later than October 1, 2013, Triple-S will also receive an administrative fee equal to $5.44 pmpm for the Southwest Region, $5.50 pmpm for the Southeast Region and $5.21 pmpm for the East Region. The administrative fee for enrollees under the Virtual Region is equal to the pmpm administrative fee applicable to the region in which such subscriber is located. The administrative fee is calculated by multiplying the actual number of enrollees as of the last day of the month preceding the month in which the payment is made by the applicable pmpm administrative fee. Triple-S will also be entitled to receive certain incentive payments based on its compliance with certain quality and claims experience criteria.

The Contract also provides for the payment of civil monetary penalties or liquidated damages by Triple-S to the extent it does not meet its obligations, which damages vary in amount depending on the nature of Triple-S’s default. In lieu of imposing any liquidated damages, penalties or sanctions against Triple-S, ASES may withhold an amount not to exceed 10% of the monthly administrative fee for certain limited events of non-compliance, and 30% for other certain limited events of non-compliance, until such event is cured.

The Contract contains representations and warranties and indemnity, termination and default provisions customary for these types of transactions with the Government of Puerto Rico. The Contract also contains certain termination and renegotiation rights for both Triple-S and ASES to address, among other things, CMS requirements and regulations, changes in law adversely affecting the economic arrangement of the parties, or the insufficiency of government funding.

The foregoing summary of the terms and conditions of the Contract is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Contract which will be filed with its next quarterly filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
