Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 5, 2007, Pharmaceutical Research Associates, Inc., a subsidiary of PRA International (the “Company”), and J. Matthew Bond entered into a separation agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) in connection with Mr. Bond’s June 4, 2007 resignation as Chief Financial Officer of the Company and from all other officer and directorship positions with the Company and its affiliates.

The Separation Agreement provides for a cash severance payment of $264,000 to Mr. Bond to be paid over a 12-month period, representing severance payments due under the employment and non-competition agreement, dated as of February 3, 2006, between Mr. Bond and Pharmaceutical Research Associates, Inc. These payments will be delayed for a period of six months as a result of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Mr. Bond will also receive a $67,500 bonus payment paid in a lump sum at the first regularly scheduled pay period following the date the Separation Agreement becomes irrevocable and effective. All of Mr. Bond’s options that are vested as of the July 5, 2007 will be governed by the terms of the applicable option agreement and option plan under which the options were granted. Any of Mr. Bond’s options that are unvested as of July 5, 2007 will be forfeited. Mr. Bond will also be entitled to receive 461 shares of common stock of the Company based on his contributions to the PRA International Management Stock Purchase Plan. The Separation Agreement contains a general release of all known and unknown claims by Mr. Bond in favor of the Company. The non-competition and non-solicitation agreement contained in the February 3, 2006 employment and non-competition agreement between Mr. Bond and the Company will remain in effect.

The foregoing description of Mr. Bond’s Separation Agreement is qualified by reference to the Separation Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.
