Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On June 10, 2005 Versant Corporation (“Versant”) committed to adoption of a multi-element restructuring plan designed to refocus Versant on its core object database business, obtain significant cost savings and improve Versant’s operating results. The restructuring plan was announced in Versant’s press release of June 14, 2005 and in Item 2.05 of Versant’s report on Form 8-K filed June 16, 2005 (the “Original 8-K”). In the Original 8-K, Versant stated that at that time it was unable in good faith to determine estimates of (i) for each major type of cost associated with the restructuring plan, the total amount or range of amounts of such costs expected to be incurred by Versant in connection with the restructuring plan, (ii) the total amount or range of amounts expected to be incurred in connection with the restructuring plan or (iii) the amount or range of amounts of the charge that will result in future cash expenditures (collectively, the “costs and expenditures”).

Pursuant to this restructuring plan, on July 29, 2005, Versant, through its subsidiary Versant GmbH, entered into agreements to effect a spin-off of tangible assets, technology rights and contracts related to Versant’s Versant Open Access .NET business to Vanatec GmbH, a privately held company based in Germany (“Vanatec”), as reported in Versant’s report on Form 8-K filed August 4, 2005. Following an assessment of the Vanatec transaction on August 26, 2005, Versant filed a report on Form 8-K/A (the “First Amendment”) amending the Original 8-K. In the First Amendment Versant provided more detailed information regarding costs and expenditures associated with the Vanatec transaction. Versant also reported in the First Amendment that the remaining elements of its restructuring plan were not then reduced to sufficient specificity to enable Versant to determine when such elements would be completed and that, except as disclosed in the First Amendment regarding the Vanatec matter, Versant was unable to determine accurate estimates of the various costs and expenditures associated with its restructuring plan.

In furtherance of the restructuring plan, on February 1, 2006 Versant sold the assets of its WebSphere consulting practice to Sima Solutions, a privately held company, as described in Versant’s report on Form 8-K filed on February 7, 2006.

Following further assessment of the progress of its restructuring plan following the sale of its WebSphere consulting practice assets, Versant is providing below the following information regarding estimated costs and expenditures of Versant’s restructuring plan to date:

1) Estimated Charges for Major Types of Costs Associated with Restructuring Plan. The following table provides information regarding actual restructuring costs incurred through the quarter ended January 31, 2006 (in thousands):

	Fiscal year ended October 31, 2005		Three months ended January 31, 2006		Total
Severance	$	280	$	119	$	399

Vanatec spin-off	480				480

Other			15		15
Total	$	760	$	134	$	894

Versant estimates that it will incur approximately $46,000 in restructuring charges for severance payments during the three months ended April 30, 2006. It will also incur approximately an additional $24,000 for transfer of property and equipment and cancellation of lease agreements. These expenditures are related to the sale of assets of Versant’s WebSphere consulting practice and will be recorded as an offset to Versant’s gain on disposal of discontinued operations in Versant’s statements of operations for the three and six months ended April 30, 2006.

All of the actual and estimated restructuring-related charges described in this report on Form 8-K/A involved (or will involve) actual cash expenditures, excluding approximately $30,000 for transfer of property and equipment related to the Vanatec and WebSphere transactions.
