Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
     On December 15, 2006, CorVel EnterpriseComp, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CorVel Corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Hazelrigg Risk Management Services, Inc. and its affiliated companies, Comp Care, Inc. and Medical Auditing Services, Inc. (collectively, the “Sellers”), and Arlene Hazelrigg, the individual shareholder of the Sellers, pursuant to which the Company’s subsidiary has agreed to acquire all of the assets and goodwill of the Sellers, other than certain excluded assets, and to assume certain contract obligations of Sellers, for an initial cash payment of $12 million to the Sellers and Ms. Hazelrigg, (the “Acquisition”). The Sellers also have the potential to receive up to an additional $2.5 million in a cash earnout based upon the revenue collected by the Sellers’ business during the one-year period after consummation of the Acquisition, which earnout may be accelerated based upon the occurrence of certain post-Acquisition events. The Company expects that the Acquisition will be completed during the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2007, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, which, if not met, may give rise to a right to terminate the Asset Purchase Agreement. This description of the Asset Purchase Agreement and the related transactions is qualified in its entirety by reference to the definitive Asset Purchase Agreement, a copy of which will be attached to the Company’s Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2006.
     On December 20, 2006, the Company issued a press release announcing the transaction described above, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
     The Company expects to finance the consideration for the transaction described above using available cash on hand. There are no material relationships between the Sellers, or Ms. Hazelrigg, and the Company, or any of its affiliates, other than the Company recently began bill review services for the Sellers which generated an immaterial amount of revenue for the Company for the quarter ending December 31, 2006.
