Item 8.01 Other Events.
As we have previously reported in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in April 2004, one of our subsidiaries, ACS State Healthcare, LLC ("ACS"), was awarded a contract by the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services ("DHHS") to replace and operate the North Carolina Medicaid Management Information System ("NCMMIS"). Protests were lodged by competing bidders, but at the request of the DHHS, ACS commenced to perform services under the contract. Recently, issues have arisen regarding performance of the contract and each of ACS and DHHS have alleged that the other party has breached the contract. On June 6, 2006 DHHS sent a letter notifying ACS that they intended to terminate the contract if the alleged breaches were not cured. Subsequently, the parties have entered into a standstill agreement in order to permit discussion of their respective issues regarding contract performance and whether the contract will be continued or terminated.
