Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
On July 28, 2006, ePlus inc. (“ePlus” or “the Company”) entered into a Second Amendment to Credit Agreement (“the Amendment”) to a Credit Agreement dated September 23, 2005 (“Credit Agreement”) with National City Bank, as Administrative Agent, and Branch Banking and Trust Company of Virginia (“BB&T”). The Amendment clarifies the definition of EBIT to exclude extraordinary items. The Amendment also grants the Company a waiver until August 31, 2006 to deliver audited financial statements and projections for its fiscal year 2007, as compared to 120 days in the Credit Agreement, as previously amended. In addition, the Amendment provided the Company with a limited waiver for its failure to provide its annual audited financial statements and fiscal year 2007 projections, prior to July 31, 2006, as required under the terms of the Credit Agreement prior to the Amendment.

In certain events of default, as set forth in the Credit Agreement and not revised in the Amendment, the lenders may terminate the Credit Agreement and accelerate the maturity of any amounts then owed under the Credit Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
