     On February 18, 2004, OneSource Information Services, Inc. announced that it had entered into a merger agreement with affiliates of ValueAct Capital. Under the agreement, each share of common stock of OneSource outstanding at the time of the merger (other than shares held by ValueAct Capital and its affiliates), will be converted into the right to receive $8.40 per share in cash.

In connection with completion of the transaction, an affiliate of ValueAct Capital will be merged with and into OneSource with OneSource becoming an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of ValueAct Capital and its affiliates.
