2006 Annual Incentive Bonuses:

On March 15, 2007, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Universal Health Services, Inc. (the “Company”) certified the level of attainment of the 2006 performance goals under the Universal Health Services, Inc. Executive Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and authorized the payment of an annual incentive bonus to Alan B. Miller, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, in the amount of $1,566,000, in respect of the year ended December 31, 2006. Consistent with previous years, the amount of Mr. Miller’s annual incentive bonus was determined as a percentage of his annual salary based on the achievement of corporate performance criteria, and equaled 128% of his annual base salary for 2006.

On March 15, 2007, the Committee certified the level of attainment of the 2006 performance goals under the Plan and authorized the payment of an annual incentive bonus to Steve G. Filton, the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, in the amount of $325,000, in respect of the year ended December 31, 2006. Consistent with previous years, the amount of Mr. Filton’s annual incentive bonus was determined as a percentage of his annual salary based on the achievement of corporate performance criteria, and equaled 85% of his annual base salary for 2006.

On March 15, 2007, the Committee certified the level of attainment of the 2006 performance goals under the Plan and authorized the payment of an annual incentive bonus to Debra K. Osteen, the Company’s Senior Vice President of Behavioral Health Operations, in the amount of $291,000, in respect of the year ended December 31, 2006. Consistent with previous years, the amount of Ms. Osteen’s annual incentive bonus was determined as a percentage of her annual salary based on the achievement of divisional and corporate performance criteria, and equaled 78% of her annual base salary for 2006.

On March 15, 2007, the Committee certified the level of attainment of the 2006 performance goals under the Plan and authorized the payment of an annual incentive bonus to Kevin J.

Based on an evaluation of the scope of Mr. Marquez’s responsibilities, the Committee deemed it appropriate to determine his annual incentive bonus as a percentage of his annual salary based on the achievement of regional and corporate performance criteria (rather than regional and divisional performance criteria, as initially determined). Mr. Marquez’s bonus equaled 17% of his annual base salary for 2006.

On March 15, 2007, the Committee certified the level of attainment of the 2006 performance goals under the Plan and authorized the payment of an annual incentive bonus to Marc D.

Based on an evaluation of the scope of Mr. Miller’s responsibilities, the Committee deemed it appropriate to determine his annual incentive bonus as a percentage of his annual salary based on the achievement of regional and corporate performance criteria (rather than regional and divisional performance criteria, as initially determined). Mr. Miller’s bonus equaled 17% of his annual base salary for 2006.

On March 15, 2007, the Committee authorized the payment of an annual incentive bonus to Richard C. Wright, the Company’s Vice President of Development, in the amount of $47,000 in respect of the year ended December 31, 2006. Consistent with previous years, the amount of Mr. Wright’s annual incentive bonus was


determined as a percentage of his annual salary based on the achievement of specified operating income targets of designated acquired facilities and on the achievement of corporate performance criteria. Mr. Wright’s bonus equaled 17% of his annual base salary for 2006.

Restricted Stock Grant:

On March 15, 2006, the Committee approved the issuance of 200,000 restricted shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock to Alan B. Miller, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated 2001 Employees’ Restricted Stock Purchase Plan. The shares were issued subject to the Company’s attainment of a reported earnings per diluted share from continuing operations, as defined, of $2.60 or greater for 2006. On March 15, 2007, the Committee certified the reported earnings per diluted share from continuing operations threshold had been met and authorized that, pursuant to the terms of the restricted stock grant, 50% of the shares will vest on March 15, 2007 and the remaining 50% will vest on March 15, 2008, if Mr. Miller remains employed by the Company through that date. In the event that Mr. Miller’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of disability, retirement or death, that portion of shares of restricted stock that would have otherwise vested within three months (or, in the case of death, twelve months) after the date of such termination will vest.

2007 Annual Cash Bonus Performance Goals

On March 15, 2007, the Committee approved specific bonus formulae for the determination of annual incentive compensation for the Company’s executive officers pursuant to the Plan in respect of the year ending December 31, 2007. Under the formulae approved by the Committee, each of the Company’s executive officers was assigned a percentage of such executive officer’s 2007 base salary as a target bonus. The following table shows each executive officer’s target bonus as a percentage of his or her base salary for 2007:
