On April 30, 2013, Varsity, All Big Ten Holdings, Inc., a Delaware limited liability company (Merger Sub), and Veramark entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Varsity intends to commence a cash tender offer (the Offer) to purchase all outstanding Shares at a price of $.98 per share, net (the Offer Price). Following the completion of the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Merger set forth in the Merger Agreement, (i) Merger Sub will, in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, be merged with and into Veramark, and Veramark shall continue as the surviving corporation (the Surviving Corporation) of the merger (the Merger), and (ii) each Share that is not tendered and accepted pursuant to the Offer (other than Shares owned by Varsity, Merger Sub, or Veramark, any Shares held by stockholders who validly exercise their appraisal rights in connection with the Merger, or any Shares which stockholders roll over in exchange for equity in Varsity (such rollover shares, the Rollover Shares)) will be converted into the right to receive in cash an amount per share equal to the Offer Price. The purpose of the Offer and the Merger is to enable Varsity to acquire control of Veramark by acquiring all of the outstanding Shares.
Page 3 of 7
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Veramark has granted to Merger Sub an irrevocable option (the Top-Up Option) to purchase at a price per share equal to the Offer Price up to the number of newly issued Shares equal to the lowest number of Shares that, when added to the number of Shares owned by Varsity and Merger Sub, constitutes one Share more than 90% of the Shares of Veramark common stock outstanding immediately after the issuance of such Shares. The exercise of the Top-Up Option is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including there being sufficient authorized Shares available for issuance. The purpose of the Merger is for Varsity to acquire all Shares not purchased pursuant to the Offer.
Effective upon the closing of the Offer, Varsity will be entitled to designate the number of directors, rounded up to the next whole number, on Veramarks board of directors that equals the product of (i) the total number of directors on Veramarks board of directors and (ii) the percentage that the number of Shares beneficially owned by Varsity and/or Merger Sub bears to the total number of Shares outstanding.
Upon consummation of the Merger, the directors of Veramark immediately prior to the Merger will be the directors of the Surviving Corporation. At the effective time of the Merger, (i) the certificate of incorporation of Veramark will be amended and restated in its entirety as set forth in the exhibits to the Merger Agreement, and (ii) the bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.
The description of the Merger Agreement included in this Item 4 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Additional Information and Where to Find It
The tender offer described herein has not yet commenced.

Veramark stockholders and other investors are strongly advised to read the tender offer materials (including the Offer to Purchase, the related Letter of Transmittal, and certain other tender offer documents) and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement, when filed, because they will contain important information which should be read carefully before any decision is made with respect to the tender offer.
