Election of Directors

On August 3, 2009, the Board of Directors of Eclipsys elected Judith C. Pelham to Eclipsys’ Board of Directors. Ms. Pelham was also appointed to the Compensation Committee of the Board.

In connection with Ms. Pelham joining Eclipsys’ Board and consistent with Eclipsys’ non-employee director compensation program, she will receive on the Date of Issuance (as defined below):

	(i)	For inducement and retention purposes, a number of deferred stock units (“DSUs”) equal to $75,000 divided by the fair market value of Eclipsys’ common stock on the Date of Issuance (the “Inducement DSUs”); and

	(ii)	For compensatory purposes, a number of DSUs equal to $99,000 (the product of $11,000 and the number of full 30-day periods from the date of election to the Board until the assumed date of the next regular annual meeting of Eclipsys’ stockholders) divided by the fair market value of Eclipsys’ common stock on the date of issuance (the “Pro-Rata DSUs”).

The “Date of Issuance,” as stipulated by Eclipsys’ Insider Trading Policy, shall be the day after the completion of two full day trading sessions on the NASDAQ Stock Market following the filing of Eclipsys’ Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Inducement DSUs vest in twenty-four (24) equal consecutive monthly increments following the Date of Issue or, if earlier, upon the occurrence of a change in control. The Pro-Rata DSUs vest in nine (9) equal consecutive monthly increments following the Date of Issue or, if earlier, upon the occurrence of a change in control, or the next annual meeting of Eclipsys’ stockholders. Each Inducement DSU and Pro-Rata DSU represents a notional right to receive one share of Eclipsys common stock. Shares of Eclipsys common stock equal to the whole number of vested DSUs are issued to the non-employee director on the earlier of the cessation of Board service or a change in control.

A copy of Eclipsys’ press release announcing Ms. Pelham’s election is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
