        <footnote id="F1">This amendment is being filed to correct the price reported in the prior filing on 09/29/2008 for the securities acquired by the Reporting Person pursuant to a grant of Shares under the Plan. The price of the securities acquired was previously reported as $0.01. The grant was made at a price of $0.00, and thus, the Reporting Person is amending its Form 4 to report the corrected price of $0.00.This updates the Form 4 filed on 09/29/2008 by the Reporting Person.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">On September 25, 2008, Mr. Beimler, a director of ePlus, Inc. (the &quot;Company&quot;), was granted two restricted stock awards, each consisting of 3,211 restricted shares of common stock of the Company (the &quot;Restricted Shares&quot;). The Restricted Shares were granted pursuant to the Company's 2008 Non-Employee Director Long Term Incentive Plan (the &quot;Plan&quot;) and subject to a Restriction Period beginning on the grant date and ending on the first anniversary of the grant for one-half of the Restricted Shares, and ending on the second anniversary of the grant for the remaining one half of the shares of Restricted Stock (the &quot;Restriction Period&quot;). In the event that the participant ceases to be a member of the Board before the applicable Restriction Period has expired or under circumstances in which the Restriction Period does not otherwise lapse, the Restricted Stock will thereupon be forfeited and transferred back to the Company.</footnote>
