Item 8.01 Other Events.
     Healthways, Inc. (the “Company”) included a statement in its proxy statement mailed to its stockholders describing the matters to be voted on at its Annual Meeting of Stockholders held Friday, May 28, 2010 that the Company’s Board of Directors would adopt a policy requiring stockholder approval prior to the Company repurchasing outstanding underwater options. In order to implement this policy, on May 28, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an amendment to the Company’s 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) removing the provision that would permit the Company, without stockholder approval, to offer to buy out for a payment in cash, stock or restricted stock, an option that was previously granted under the Plan.
     Additionally, in the future, the Company will consider offsetting dilution stemming from employee equity plans with future share repurchases.
