(b) On April 21, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company terminated the employment of Lynn P. Davenport as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Board terminated Mr. Davenport after it determined that he had violated the Company’s Standards of Business Conduct and Ethics related to his conduct towards one of the Company’s female employees. A copy of the press release announcing the termination of Mr. Davenport, among other things, is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Mr. Davenport resigned as a director of the Company effective April 26, 2006.

(c) On April 21, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Richard A. Montoni as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, and David N. Walker as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. A copy of the press release announcing the appointment of Mr. Montoni and Mr. Walker, among other things, is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

On April 21, 2006, the Company entered into an Executive Employment, Non-Compete and Confidentiality Agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) with Richard A. Montoni in connection with his appointment as the Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, effective April 24, 2006 (the “Effective Date”). The Employment Agreement has a four year term (the “Term”), provided that it may be terminated (i) upon the mutual written consent of the parties, (ii) in the event of Mr. Montoni’s death or inability to perform his duties for a continuous period of 120 days or more or (iii) by the Company for Cause, as defined in the MAXIMUS, Inc. Income Continuity Plan (the “Continuity Plan”).

Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Montoni will receive an annual salary of $600,000 (the “Base Salary”), 112,500 restricted stock units (the “Units”) pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 1997 Equity Incentive Plan and health, disability and life insurance and other benefits and expense reimbursements consistent with the Company’s past practices for similarly situated executives. The Units vest in three annual installments on March 31, 2007, March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2009 and provide for accelerated vesting in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Continuity Plan). Mr. Montoni will also receive a cash payment of $300,000 (the “Signing Bonus”) upon signing the Employment Agreement, but he has agreed to repay the Signing Bonus if his employment is terminated before the earliest of (i) the one-year anniversary of the Effective Date, (ii) a Change of Control (as defined in the Continuity Plan) or (iii) his death or disability.

Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Montoni is eligible to receive an annual cash bonus under the Company’s annual bonus program based on his performance and the performance of the Company. Mr. Montoni’s targeted bonus is set at 70% of his base salary, provided that

Mr. Montoni’s bonus for fiscal year 2006 will be $600,000 (the “2006 Bonus”). Mr. Montoni is permitted to draw against his 2006 Bonus in the amount of $25,000 per month, but he has agreed to repay such amounts if his employment is terminated before the earliest of (i) September 30, 2006, (ii) a Change of Control (as defined in the Continuity Plan) or (iii) his death or disability.

Mr. Montoni will become a participant in the Continuity Plan and be entitled to participate in stock option or similar plans that currently exist, or that may be established, by the Company from time to time, provided that the Company agrees to adjust any vested or unvested equity awards in the event the Company declares an “extraordinary dividend,” as defined in the Employment Agreement.

If Mr. Montoni’s employment is terminated in connection with a Change of Control (as defined in the Continuity Plan), he will be entitled to receive payments and benefits under the Continuity Plan only. If Mr. Montoni’s employment is terminated without Cause (as defined in the Continuity Plan), or Mr. Montoni terminates his employment for Good Reason (as defined in the Continuity Plan), prior to the expiration of the Term, Mr. Montoni will be entitled to receive the greater of (i) Base Salary and all benefits described above for the remainder of the Term, including the vesting of Units and stock options or (ii) the severance benefits specified in the severance guidelines adopted by the Company’s compensation committee on March 21, 2006.

The Employment Agreement subjects Mr. Montoni to confidentiality obligations, and contains certain customary non-compete restrictions on his present and future employment for a period of one year after his termination. The Company has also agreed to treat Mr. Montoni as remaining in employment with the Company continuously during the period beginning March 18, 2002 through the Effective Date, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

The foregoing description of the Employment Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms of the Employment Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

A copy of the press release announcing his appointment, among other things, is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
