Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 29, 2009, Sharps Compliance Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a contract (the “U.S. Government Contract”) with the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide the Company’s Medical Waste Management System, or Sharps^®MWMS™, to the VA. The total contract is valued at approximately $40.0 million and is expected to be executed over a five year period (one year plus four option years). The Company received a purchase order for $28.5 million for products and services to be provided during the first contract year of which $6.0 million was billed, in the aggregate, in the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, $11.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2009, $11.5 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2009 and $0.4 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2010. In January 2010, the Company was awarded the first option year (ending January 31, 2011) valued at $1.6 million and will be realized from February 1, 2010 through January 31, 2011. The remaining three option years are expected to be approximately $3 million per year as the program moves from the production phase to the maintenance phase. The above amounts are estimates only and are subject to change. The U.S. Government Contract is, as with all contracts or subcontracts involving the federal government, terminable, or subject to renegotiation, by the applicable governmental agency on 30 days notice, at the option of the governmental agency.

The above description of the U.S. Government Contract is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the U.S. Government Contract filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
