On June 22, 2006, Magellan Health Services, Inc. (the “Company”) announced the appointment of Michael Majerik to the position of Chief Sales and Marketing Officer of the Company, effective July 17, 2006.

Under an Employment Agreement entered into as of June 16, 2006 between the Company and Mr. Majerik, he is to be employed for a term beginning on July 17, 2006 and expiring on July 16, 2007, with automatic twelve-month renewals unless notice of non-renewal is provided by either party at least before the scheduled expiration date of the then current term. Any such notice of non-renewal by the Company will be deemed a termination without cause under the Employment Agreement. Mr. Majerik’s current annual base salary under the Employment Agreement is $275,000 subject to annual discretionary increases, if any, as determined at least annually, by the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board. Mr. Majerik is eligible for an annual target bonus of up to 50% of his base salary in accordance with the Company’s Short-Term Incentive Plan. The Company also agreed that Mr. Majerik will receive options, vesting in three equal annual installments, to purchase 37,500 shares of the Company’s Ordinary Common Stock with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock of the Company on July 17, 2006 and 4,753 restricted stock units vesting in three equal annual installments.

If Mr. Majerik’s employment is terminated without cause, as defined in the employment agreement, he will be entitled to severance equal to his then annual base salary in addition to amounts previously earned and, under certain conditions in the Company’s sole discretion, a ratable portion of his target bonus.

A copy of the Employment Agreement is attached as Exhibit 99.2 hereto.
