Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 1, 2011, SunLink Health Systems, Inc. (“SunLink” or the “Company”) entered into an agreement to lease its owned Chilton Medical Center (“Chilton”) and to sell its 83% membership interest in Clanton Hospital LLC (“Clanton”) subsidiary, which manages Chilton, to Carraway Medical Systems, Inc. (“Carraway”). The lease agreement is for a six-year term with monthly rent of $37,000 and includes an option under which Carraway can purchase Chilton from SunLink. The option purchase price is $3,700,000, less the amount paid to purchase the 17% membership interest of Clanton that Carraway does not currently own, up to a maximum of $615,000. The purchase price of SunLink’s 83% membership interest of Clanton was a $1,000,000 six-year zero-coupon note plus a six-year 6% note for the net working capital of Clanton at purchase. The amount of the net working capital will be finalized by March 15, 2011. If the purchase option for Chilton is exercised during the six-year term of the lease, any amount paid under the $1,000,000 note will be credited to the option purchase price and any remaining balance on the note will be cancelled.
