ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
     On November 9, 2005, the Board of Directors of Service Corporation International (the “Company”) approved and adopted the Service Corporation International Wealth Accumulation Plan (the “Plan”).
     Participation in the Plan is limited to officers and managing directors of the Company. The Plan provides for annual Company retirement contributions of 7.5% of current salary and bonus for officers, and 5% of current salary and bonus for managing directors. The Plan also provides for performance-earned Company retirement contributions of 7.5% of current salary and bonus for officers in years when the target bonus is met, with contributions modified below or above 7.5% based on performance, subject to a 15% cap. Each Company retirement contribution will vest over three years, with full vesting at age 60 with five years of service to the Company. Additionally, the Plan allows for voluntary pretax deferral of salary, bonus and the cash portion of compensation under the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan, a Company-provided 401(k) restoration match, and discretionary Company contributions.
     The provisions of the Plan amend and restate the provisions of the Service Corporation International Director’s Deferred Compensation Fee Plan for Attendance Fees for Regular and Special Board Meetings and Committee Meetings, and Other Board Events or Activities, adopted May 8, 2003.
