WHEREAS, the Amended Consolidated Complaint alleges, in substance, the following with respect to the issues set forth below:

Private Aircraft:

From 2001 to 2005, Vinod Gupta, his family and friends, as well as certain Company directors, former President Clinton and his family, and other prominent individuals made improper, personal use of the Company’s private jets, and Vinod Gupta did not reimburse the Company for costs incurred in connection with such use. In addition, for a period of time, all payments for private jet use were made through Annapurna Corporation (“Annapurna”), a company wholly owned by Vinod Gupta, allowing Vinod Gupta to profit from these transactions. Further, in 2004 and 2005, in order to avoid reporting the Company’s extensive related-party transactions with Annapurna, the Company purchased the interests held by Annapurna in the private jets.

Yacht:

From 2001 to June 2005, the Company’s corporate yacht, leased from Annapurna, was used for non-business purposes, and the Company made substantial yacht-related expenditures without Board approval. In June 2005, the Company acquired the yacht to avoid reporting payments for it as related-party transactions. The existence of the yacht and the Company’s payments for it were not publicly disclosed until August 2005.

Residences:

The Company paid for the use of several of Vinod Gupta’s personal residences. These payments were self-dealing transactions between Vinod Gupta and the Company that were neither approved by the Board nor fully disclosed in the Company’s public filings.

Automobiles:

The Company made payments in 2003 and 2004 to lease automobiles from Aspen Leasing Services LLC (“Aspen Leasing”), a company wholly owned by Vinod Gupta, for Vinod Gupta’s personal use. In 2005, the Company subsequently purchased four vehicles that had been leased by Aspen Leasing to the Company to eliminate the disclosure of them as related-party transactions. These arrangements were not approved by the Board or disclosed in the Company’s public filings.

Insurance:

In 2003 and 2004, the Company paid premiums on Vinod Gupta’s personal life insurance policy.

Skybox:

In 2003, the Audit Committee allowed the Company to purchase from Annapurna a skybox at the University of Nebraska’s football stadium. Before the purchase, the Company leased the skybox from Annapurna. Both before and after the purchase, the skybox was used for the non-business purpose of entertaining Vinod Gupta and his friends. The purchase price was not discounted to present value and it did not account for the diminution of value for the years during which the Company paid Vinod Gupta.

Everest Building Mortgage:

In 2001, the Audit Committee approved, after-the-fact, the Company’s assumption of the mortgage on the Everest Building, an office building adjacent to the Company’s corporate headquarters, which was owned by Everest Investment Management LLC, an entity affiliated with Vinod Gupta.

Everest Asset Management:

In 2002, the Company paid Everest Asset Management, an affiliate of Vinod Gupta, $415,000 for acquisition-related expenses.

Office Space:

Annapurna, former director Harold Andersen, former director Dennis Walker, and PKWare (a company for which current director George Haddix serves as Chairman and CEO) each occupy the Company’s facilities without rental agreements and do not pay rent.

Everest³ Fund:

In 2001, the Company invested $1,000,000 in the Everest³ Fund, an investment fund associated with Vinod Gupta. Director Harold Andersen was a principal of Everest. The investment was subsequently liquidated without explanation.

Everest Legal Fees:

The Company paid a portion of Everest Investment Management LLC’s legal fees arising out of litigation over the use of the Everest name.

Laurel Gupta:

In 2003 and 2004, Vinod Gupta’s wife, Laurel Gupta, received consulting fees from the Company. These fees were paid to Laurel Gupta’s business entity, Financial Communications. In 2004, Laurel Gupta was also paid fixed monthly expense reimbursements from the Company.

Former President Clinton’s Consulting Agreements:

The consulting agreements executed between the Company and former President Clinton in 2002 and 2005 were without any consideration to the Company, and the agreements were arranged without Board or Committee approval.

2005 Proxy Statement:

In the Company’s 2005 proxy statement, the Defendants understated the amount of Company stock beneficially owned by Vinod Gupta.

2004 & 2005 Form 10-K Filings:

In the Company’s 2004 and 2005 Form 10-K filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Defendants mischaracterized and/or concealed payments to Annapurna for jet usage and other related-party expenditures.

Grants to Vinod Gupta:

In 2001, the Board gave Vinod Gupta the authority to allocate Company stock options most of which he allocated to himself.

Grants to Former President Clinton:

In 2002, Vinod Gupta granted options of the Company’s stock to former President Clinton, as a third-party consultant, without proper authorization and approval.

Revised Earnings Guidance:

In 2005, Vinod Gupta purposely revised the Company’s earnings guidance in order to depress the price of the Company’s stock, which, in turn, enabled him to make an opportunistic “going-private” offer.

Special Committee:

Vinod Gupta, and directors under his domination and control, never intended the Special Committee, formed in 2005 to evaluate Vinod Gupta’s “going private offer,” to exercise the authority delegated to the Special Committee under its charter. When the Special Committee attempted to exercise its full authority by rejecting Vinod Gupta’s offer and pursuing strategic alternatives, Vinod Gupta, and the directors under his domination and control, voted to disband the Special Committee.

Insider Trading:

In 2006, Vinod Gupta executed trades based on material, nonpublic information obtained in his position as a fiduciary at the Company by purchasing and selling shares of Opinion Research Corporation stock.

In 2004, Vinod Gupta sold shares of OneSource stock, a company in which the Company had acquired a position and ultimately purchased.

Analyst Intimidation:

Vinod Gupta verbally abused and threatened a sell-side analyst with an FBI investigation, which resulted in the analyst dropping coverage of the Company in August 2006 and an ensuing 5% decline in the market price of the Company’s stock.

Standstill Agreement and Shareholder Rights Plan:

The standstill letter agreement executed on July 21, 2006 between the Company and Vinod Gupta is invalid, and the Defendants failed to amend the Company’s shareholder rights plan to extend applicable provisions to Vinod Gupta;

WHEREAS, the Amended Consolidated Complaint asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty and waste of corporate assets, seeks to void certain transactions and grants of Company stock options, and requests declaratory relief, injunctive relief, money damages, and attorneys’ fees, as appropriate;

WHEREAS, the Company’s motion to dismiss the Amended Consolidated Complaint was granted in part and denied in substantial part in an August 13, 2007 Order of the Court, as amended on August 20, 2007;

WHEREAS, in its August 13 Order (as amended on August 20), the Court dismissed allegations in the Amended Consolidated Complaint that: (i) the July 21, 2006 standstill letter agreement between the Company and Vinod Gupta is invalid; (ii) Defendants breached their fiduciary duties by exempting Vinod Gupta from the Company’s shareholder rights plan; and (iii) the Company’s consultancy contracts with former President Clinton constituted corporate waste;

WHEREAS, by letter dated November 14, 2007, the Denver Regional Office of the SEC informed the Company that it was initiating a non-public investigation of the Company;

WHEREAS, the SLC was formed by a resolution adopted by the Board on December 24, 2007, and amended on January 25, 2008, attached hereto as Exhibit D;

WHEREAS, the SLC is composed of five members of the Board: Robin S. Chandra (Chair), Bill L. Fairfield, George H. Krauss, Bernard W. Reznicek, and Clifton T. Weatherford;

WHEREAS, pursuant to its authorizing resolution, the SLC undertook to investigate the facts and circumstances of the Amended Consolidated Complaint, as well as other allegations that were brought to the SLC’s attention;

WHEREAS, on January 30, 2008, the SLC moved to stay the Consolidated Derivative Action for 150 days in order to enable the SLC to complete its investigation of the allegations asserted in the Amended Consolidated Complaint;

WHEREAS, on March 17, 2008, the Court granted the SLC’s motion to stay the Consolidated Derivative Action until June 30, 2008;

WHEREAS, in its Order granting the SLC’s motion to stay, the Court stated: “[P]laintiffs express concern that the board resolution empowering the SLC created merely an advisory committee with little or no actual power. I do not read the resolution to do so. The resolution affirms ‘that the SLC shall have the authority to investigate, review, and analyze the facts and circumstances that are the subject of the Derivative Litigation, as well as any additional facts and circumstances that may be at issue in any related governmental inquiry, investigation, or proceeding . . . .’ The resolution further grants the SLC ‘full and exclusive authority to

consider and determine whether or not the prosecution of the claims asserted in the Derivative Litigation . . . is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, and to further consider and determine what action should be taken on behalf of the Company with respect to the Derivative Litigation and any related governmental inquiry, investigation, or proceeding . . . .’ This language is mandatory and vests the SLC with the ‘full and exclusive authority’ to investigate the pending claims and to ‘determine’ what course of action the Company should take. . . . [T]he SLC has been given adequate authority and power by the Company’s board to conduct its investigation and determine what course of action is in the best interests of the shareholders.”;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the agreement of the SLC and the Named Shareholder Plaintiffs (as hereinafter defined), the Court subsequently extended the stay of the Consolidated Derivative Action through July 31, 2008 and then to August 15, 2008;

WHEREAS, at the direction of the SLC, Counsel for the SLC (as hereinafter defined) has collected and searched over one million pages of documents from more than 30 custodians and central file locations inside and outside the Company;

WHEREAS, Counsel for the SLC conducted substantive witness interviews with 79 current and former Company employees, directors, advisors, and other relevant individuals;

WHEREAS, in early April 2008, the SLC retained National Economic Research Associates, Inc. (“NERA”), to assist the SLC in its investigation by, among other things, conducting valuations of assets and services, and analyzing certain related-party transactions and use of corporate assets;

WHEREAS, as of the execution date of this Stipulation, the SLC has formally met with Counsel for the SLC 37 times, in addition to other informal communications that have taken place over the course of the SLC’s investigation;

WHEREAS, as part of the SLC’s investigation, Counsel for the SLC met with Counsel for the Named Shareholder Plaintiffs, wherein Counsel for the Named Shareholder Plaintiffs presented their assessment of the allegations in the Amended Consolidated Complaint, the evidence in support of the allegations, potential bases for monetary damages, and potential remedial measures;

WHEREAS, as part of the SLC’s investigation, Counsel for the SLC interviewed Vinod Gupta, wherein Vinod Gupta was questioned regarding the allegations in the Amended Consolidated Complaint;

WHEREAS, as part of the SLC’s investigation, Counsel for the SLC interviewed the Director Defendants, wherein the Director Defendants were questioned regarding the allegations in the Amended Consolidated Complaint;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the authority granted to the SLC in its authorizing resolution, the SLC investigated the following issues, and made the following determinations, regarding the facts and circumstances alleged in the Amended Consolidated Complaint, as well as other allegations brought to the SLC’s attention:

Private Aircraft:

The SLC investigated: (1) whether, during the time when Annapurna Corporation owned the private aircraft, Annapurna charged infoGROUP more than Annapurna’s costs for the aircraft; (2) whether Annapurna profited from the eventual sale of private aircraft to infoGROUP; and (3) the manner in which the private aircraft were used.

From 1998 to 2005, infoGROUP, for itself and others, utilized private aircraft owned by Annapurna. Annapurna charged infoGROUP a set price per flight hour, which included the hourly rate being charged to Annapurna by NetJets, Inc., a portion of the depreciation expenses, and an interest charge, among other components. Analysis conducted by the SLC’s outside economic expert, NERA, indicates that Annapurna charged infoGROUP more than NetJets charged Annapurna for flights, depending on the type of aircraft used and the time period considered. This increase, however, is composed almost entirely of depreciation and interest costs, thus approximating the costs infoGROUP would have incurred if the Company had owned the aircraft itself.

From 2003 — 2007, infoGROUP acquired partial interests in seven private aircraft. infoGROUP acquired each of its aircraft interests from third parties, including NetJets and Flight Options, LLC. With respect to the NetJets purchases, the majority of those interests were first owned by Annapurna before being sold to NetJets. Board members’ recollections differ as to whether and what extent these purchases were explicitly approved by the Board; there is no documentary evidence of such approval. The SLC has not found that Annapurna profited from these transactions.

The SLC also examined the usage of the private planes from 1998 — 2007. Exact information about the approximately 1820 flights infoGROUP paid for on private jets during this period was not available. Therefore, the SLC examined flights in several categories, including: (1) flights described in the Amended Consolidated Complaint, as well as flights that were part of the same itinerary; (2) flights taken by former President Clinton and his family; (3) flights taken by other prominent individuals; (4) flights to international destinations and Hawaii; and (5) flights from selected time periods. In order to assess these categories of flights, the SLC collected documents, including invoices, infoGROUP travel forms, Vinod Gupta’s calendar, and his itineraries. The SLC also spoke to Vinod Gupta, his counsel, and other witnesses about the purpose of various flights.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to a portion of these flights, including, for example, flights to Aspen for Vinod Gupta and his sons; flights to Hawaii for Vinod Gupta, his family, and several guests; flights for former President Bill Clinton after infoGROUP had signed a consulting agreement with him; and flights for former President Clinton’s family members and other third parties.

Expenses:

At the request of the Company’s outside auditors, and, later, the Named Shareholder Plaintiffs, the SLC investigated the following: (1) Vinod Gupta’s credit card expense reimbursement process; (2) payments made by infoGROUP to Vinod Gupta for his credit card expenses; (3) Vinod Gupta’s private club memberships; (4) certain employees’ salaries and expense reimbursements; and (5) a legal invoice from Kirkland & Ellis LLP addressed to Vinod Gupta.

Company reimbursement for Vinod Gupta’s credit card expenses was handled separately from expense reimbursement for other officers and employees. His expenses were initially processed by an accountant at Annapurna. After Vinod Gupta reviewed and categorized his expenses, infoGROUP’s accounting department would add account coding to the invoice and then send it to a more senior executive for final approval of the reimbursement check. Due to ineffective internal controls, no one reviewed the substance of the expenses, and reimbursement was approved so long as Vinod Gupta had authorized payment.

The SLC examined Vinod Gupta’s credit card spending from 2000 — 2007. Exact information about the purpose of credit card spending during this period was not available. Therefore, the SLC carefully examined expenses in several categories, including: (1) expenses in selected time periods; (2) a sample of expenses over $1,000; and (3) all expenses over $15,000. In order to assess these expenses, the SLC collected documentation, including invoices, Vinod Gupta’s calendar, and his itineraries. The SLC also spoke to Vinod Gupta and/or his counsel and other witnesses about select expenses so that they could provide additional information about the circumstances surrounding the expense. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to certain expenses relating to lodging, flights, meals, and various other expense categories.

The SLC also examined Vinod Gupta’s golf club memberships from 2000-2007, for which the Company paid a portion of the membership and usage fees. Exact information was not available on the purposes for which Vinod Gupta’s more than 30 private club memberships were used. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to most of these clubs.

The SLC examined the salaries and expense reimbursements for the following employees who worked in part for infoGROUP and in part for Vinod Gupta personally: (1) an individual who is currently an accountant for Everest, Inc. and was formerly employed by infoGROUP; (2) an

individual who is currently Director of Special Projects and Trade Shows for infoGROUP; and (3) an individual who is currently an accountant for Everest, Inc. and formerly employed by infoGROUP. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue.

In January 2007, Vinod Gupta submitted to infoGROUP one invoice for personal legal services from Kirkland & Ellis LLP. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue.

Yacht:

The SLC investigated: (1) whether, when American Business Travel, an entity owned and controlled by Vinod Gupta, owned the American Princess yacht, Annapurna charged infoGROUP more than its costs for use of the yacht; (2) whether Annapurna or American Business Travel profited from infoGROUP’s sale-leaseback transaction on the yacht with U.S. Bancorp; and (3) the manner in which the American Princess yacht was used.

On January 10, 2002, American Business Travel purchased the American Princess yacht. From 2002 — 2005, infoGROUP rented the American Princess from Annapurna. NERA’s analysis indicates that Annapurna charged infoGROUP more than American Business Travel was paying per month on its loan for the yacht. This difference, however, is accounted for by the fact that Vinod Gupta made a sizeable down payment on the yacht when it was purchased, thus reducing the size of the loan. As a result, Annapurna’s charges to infoGROUP appear roughly to have approximated the costs infoGROUP would have incurred if the Company had owned the yacht itself.

In June 2005, infoGROUP began leasing the American Princess from U.S. Bancorp as part of a sale-leaseback agreement. The SLC has not found that Annapurna or American Business Travel profited from infoGROUP’s lease of the yacht through U.S. Bancorp. Board members’ recollections differ as to whether and to what extent the sale-leaseback of the yacht was explicitly approved by the Board; there is no documentary evidence of such approval.

The SLC examined yacht usage from 2002 — 2007. Exact information about infoGROUP’s yacht usage during this period was not available. The SLC assessed yacht use by examining the yacht log, collecting and reviewing documents, and conducting interviews with the crew of the yacht, individuals who used the yacht, and Company staff responsible for booking usage on the yacht.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate because the yacht is rarely used for business or any other purpose and, accordingly, should now be sold.

Residences:

The SLC investigated: (1) payments made by infoGROUP to various entities owned and controlled by Vinod Gupta and to members of Vinod Gupta’s family for personal residences; and (2) payments made by infoGROUP to house managers who maintain Vinod Gupta’s private residences.

From 1999 through 2007, infoGROUP paid rent and expenses in connection with various residences owned by entities controlled by Vinod Gupta, as well as in connection with a residence owned by Vinod Gupta’s son. These residences are in Aspen, Colorado; Maui, Hawaii; Yountville, California; and Hillsborough, California. Employees and customers sometimes used these properties, although use was infrequent. infoGROUP also paid for a residence in Washington, D.C., that was used primarily by Vinod Gupta. Beginning in 2005, the Audit Committee received yearly notice of the rent payments for Vinod’s Gupta’s son’s Maui condominium.

The SLC examined usage of 10 private residences owned or rented by Vinod Gupta and his family from 2001 — 2007. Specifically, the SLC assessed usage of private residences at the following locations owned by Vinod Gupta, and paid for during various periods by infoGROUP: (1) Hillsborough, California; (2) Napa, California; (3) Aspen, Colorado; and (4) a condominium owned by Vinod Gupta’s son, Jess Gupta, in Maui, Hawaii. In addition, the SLC examined the use of a Washington, D.C. apartment rented directly by infoGROUP on Vinod Gupta’s behalf. Finally, the SLC examined the use of Vinod Gupta’s homes in the following locations for which the Company has never paid rent: (1) Omaha; (2) Kauai; (3) Miami; (4) Las Vegas; and (5) Washington, D.C.

Exact information about infoGROUP’s private residence usage during this period was not available. The nature and magnitude of the usage of the residences was assessed by examination of the Company’s property logs. Further, Vinod Gupta requested that his employees and former employees submit, via email, available details on stays at his residences. This information was compiled and supplemented with employee interviews. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to infoGROUP’s payments for the residences, where documentation evidencing use by Company employees or customers was lacking and the Audit Committee was otherwise unaware of such use.

From 2004 — 2008, the manager of Vinod Gupta’s D.C. residence, was paid a salary by infoGROUP. She also received expense reimbursements from the Company. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue.

A former infoGROUP employee from 2000 — 2002, currently serves as the property manager of Vinod Gupta’s residence in Kauai, Hawaii. After his employment at infoGROUP, he received expense reimbursements from the Company. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue.

Automobiles:

The SLC investigated: (1) whether Aspen Leasing charged infoGROUP more than its costs for the lease of automobiles in 2002 — 2004; (2) whether Aspen Leasing profited on infoGROUP’s purchases of four of the automobiles in early 2005; and (3) payments for these and other automobiles used by Vinod Gupta.

In early to mid-2002, Vinod Gupta formed Aspen Leasing, an automobile leasing company. From 2002 — 2004, infoGROUP leased six automobiles from Aspen Leasing at various times. Aspen Leasing calculated what infoGROUP would pay for each vehicle by contacting dealerships, obtaining the residual value of the vehicle at the end of a 36-month lease period, and dividing the remaining value of the vehicle by 36 for the monthly payment. To this amount, Aspen Leasing added an interest payment, which was calculated using the market rate (obtained by asking banks), plus 1% — 2% for overhead.

In early 2005, infoGROUP purchased four of the Aspen Leasing vehicles through Classic Auto Sales, an independent company. Each of the purchase prices was either commensurate with the Blue Book value or below the amount of payments still due and owing on the lease.

The SLC investigated the usage of six cars leased through Aspen Leasing, as well as the usage of 15 additional vehicles leased or purchased by infoGROUP. Exact information about infoGROUP’s automobile usage during this period was not available. The SLC examined usage by conducting employee interviews as well as reviewing insurance information which listed authorized drivers for certain of the automobiles. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to payments for 14 of these 21 vehicles.

Insurance:

The SLC investigated whether infoGROUP paid premiums on life insurance policies of which the Company was not the beneficiary.

The SLC found that from 2000 — 2005, infoGROUP made various payments on three life insurance policies for Vinod Gupta. The Gupta Family 1999 Irrevocable Trust was the beneficiary of all of these policies. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue.

Skybox:

The SLC investigated the Company’s lease, purchase, and use of a skybox at the University of Nebraska’s football stadium.

In 1998, the University of Nebraska Board of Regents and the Vinod Gupta Revocable Trust, an entity owned and controlled by Vinod Gupta, entered into a 25-year agreement for the Trust’s use of a skybox at the University of Nebraska’s football stadium. In August 1999, infoGROUP paid Annapurna $40,000 for a five-year lease on the skybox. Vinod Gupta and other infoGROUP employees have stated that the skybox is used extensively by employees and customers; logs of skybox attendees confirm these statements.

The right to use the skybox was assigned to the Company by the Trust on April 23, 2003. infoGROUP paid Annapurna $617,000 in May 2003 for the assignment, which is likely below the current market price for a skybox. The Audit Committee received information about the assignment and purchase price in July and October 2003.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to related-party transactions, although no specific remedial action is necessary with respect to the lease, purchase, and use of the skybox.

Quest Venture Coordinators Private Ltd. (“Quest Ventures”):

At the request of the Company’s outside auditors, and, later, the Named Shareholder Plaintiffs, the SLC investigated whether: (1) Quest Ventures is a related-party to infoGROUP; and (2) Quest Ventures provides business services to infoGROUP.

In 1998, Quest began conducting business with infoGROUP. Quest Ventures is owned primarily by a personal friend of Vinod Gupta’s. Employees of infoGROUP explained that Quest Ventures manages

infoGROUP’s operations in India and conducts some targeted services directly for the Company. In 1998, Vinod Gupta purchased 40,000 shares of Quest Ventures stock for approximately $10,000, which represented roughly 30% — 40% of outstanding shares of Quest Ventures stock at that time. In 2003, Vinod Gupta gifted the Quest Ventures shares to his friend.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to related-party transactions, although no specific remedial action is necessary with respect to Quest Ventures.

Board Oversight of Expenses:

The SLC investigated the circumstances surrounding discussion of expense and related-party transaction issues by the Board. After some earlier, general discussions, these issues arose primarily in 2004 and 2005.

On June 8, 2004, Jill Burger, the former head of internal audit and current Assistant Corporate Controller at the Company, prepared a report summarizing findings resulting from Burger’s review of expenses related to the Company’s CEO, including jet usage, credit card reimbursements, payments for residences, payments for the yacht, payments to Quest Ventures, payments for automobiles, club memberships, and usage of office space. Burger presented her findings to Vasant Raval, former chair of the Audit Committee and a current Board member.

On January 24, 2005, at an Executive Session of a meeting of the Board, there was a discussion among directors Vinod Gupta, Elliot Kaplan, Harold Andersen, George Haddix, Richard Borda, Vasant Raval, and Dennis Walker regarding related-party transactions and expenses. The Board received a list of all related-party transactions in connection with which payments were made by the Company during 2004. The Board discussed payments for the jets, residences, and automobiles.

On January 27, 2005, the Board held an Executive Session attended by Harold Andersen, Richard Borda, George Haddix, Martin Kahn, Elliot Kaplan, Vasant Raval, Dennis Walker, and Board Counsel from Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi. At this meeting, the directors asked director Raval to look at issues related to expenses, regardless of whether they were paid to a related-party. Documents indicate that director Andersen asked whether the Audit Committee should look at issues related to expense accounting, and the Board indicated that Raval should undertake such a review.

Raval reviewed certain related-party issues and spoke to Vinod Gupta, KPMG, the Company’s outside counsel, Company employees, and others.

KPMG informed Raval that they had never conducted a general review of Vinod Gupta’s expenses. Rather, KPMG stated that it had no reason to believe, based on what it had seen, that Vinod Gupta’s expenses were not reasonable business expenses.

On February 8, 2005, Raval distributed a memorandum of his findings via email to Walker, Kahn, Haddix, Kaplan, Borda, and Board counsel from Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi. The memorandum provided a breakdown of $1.5 million in payments to Annapurna during 2004, including payments for “NetJets,” “Use of personal properties (residences),” “Use of personal properties (boat),” “Contractor services,” and “Travel services.” Approximately $1 million of this amount related to aircraft expenditures.

On February 9, 2005, the Audit Committee, comprised of Andersen, Raval and Borda, through an informal informational conference call, discussed Raval’s memorandum. Raval reported his conversation with KPMG regarding expenses.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue.

Everest Building Mortgage:

The SLC investigated the circumstances surrounding the sale of the Everest Building to the Company by Everest Investment Management LLC.

In the spring of 2001, the Everest Building was constructed by Everest Investment Management LLC. Everest Investment Management LLC had a $2.4 million loan from U.S. Bank to finance the Everest building construction. After the completion of construction, infoGROUP entered into a 10-year agreement with Everest Investment Management LLC to lease office space from Everest Investment Management LLC in the Everest Building for $30,000 per month. On October 9, 2001, infoGROUP purchased the Everest Building from Everest Investment Management LLC for $2.62 million, an amount equal to Everest Investment Management LLC’s total construction costs. The amount outstanding on the mortgage note was $2.4 million. Thus, infoGROUP paid Everest Investment Management LLC $220,000 and assumed Everest Investment Management’s obligations under the mortgage. On October 15, 2001, the Audit Committee and the Board approved “the Company’s acquisition of the building from Everest Investments,” after being informed that infoGROUP acquired the Everest Building by assuming the mortgage on the building.

The SLC has determined that no remedial action is indicated with respect to the assumption of the mortgage of the Everest Building. The SLC has determined, however, that remedial action is appropriate with respect to amounts paid by the Company that were in excess of the amount of the mortgage on the Everest Building.

Everest Asset Management:

The SLC investigated the circumstances surrounding a $415,000 payment to Everest Asset Management.

In January 2002, infoGROUP paid Everest Asset Management $415,000 for the acquisition of the Polk City Directories. These funds were distributed by Everest Asset Management to infoGROUP employees as bonuses related to the acquisition.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to related-party transactions, although no monetary remedial action is necessary with respect to the payment to Everest Asset Management.

Office Space:

The SLC investigated whether Vinod Gupta provided free office space to related-party entities and directors of infoGROUP, as well as whether infoGROUP paid a salary to the secretary to one of the directors, Harold Andersen.

On October 9, 2001, infoGROUP acquired the Everest Building. From October 2001 — December 2004, Annapurna and Everest Investment Management LLC occupied space in the Everest Building without paying rent to infoGROUP. Beginning in January 2005, Everest Investment Management LLC and Annapurna paid a combined $1,600 per month to infoGROUP pursuant to a rental agreement.

From October 2001 — November 2005, director Harold Andersen and his secretary occupied space in the Everest Building without paying rent to infoGROUP. infoGROUP also paid a third of Andersen’s secretary’s salary from 1996 — 2005. In December 2005, infoGROUP signed a consulting agreement with Andersen that provided for office space and secretarial services.

From November 2001 — December 2001, director George Haddix occupied space in the Everest Building without paying rent to infoGROUP. Beginning in 2002, Haddix paid monthly rent pursuant to a

rental agreement with infoGROUP and paid back rent for all but two months.

From January 2003 to December 2004, director Dennis Walker occupied space in the Everest Building without paying rent to infoGROUP. Beginning in January 2005, Walker paid monthly rent to infoGROUP pursuant to a rental agreement. Walker ceased leasing space in the Everest Building in May 2006.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to the issue of providing free office space to companies owned by Vinod Gupta. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to providing secretarial services to Andersen prior to December 2005. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to related-party transactions, although no monetary remedial action is necessary with respect to directors’ use of free office space.

Everest³ Fund:

The SLC investigated infoGROUP’s investment in the Everest³ Fund (the “Fund”).

In 2001, infoGROUP invested $1,000,000 in the Everest³ Fund, a fund that invested primarily in exchange-traded funds. This investment was disclosed to and reviewed by the Audit Committee and the Board. The investment was also disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001. On July 29, 2002, infoGROUP withdrew its entire investment in the Fund, having lost approximately $310,000. In the fall and winter of 2002, infoGROUP invested an additional $690,000 in the Fund. There is no evidence that the Board or Audit Committee was aware of or reviewed this investment. The Company sold its second investment in the Fund on August 17, 2004, for approximately $805,000, resulting in a net loss on the Company’s entire investment in the Fund of approximately $195,000. NERA’s analysis indicates that the Fund performed in accordance with standard market indicators and in line with the exchanges on which its investments were based. NERA’s analysis also indicates that the Fund’s fees were commensurate with the fees charged by similar funds.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to related-party transactions, although no monetary remedial action is necessary with respect to the investment in the Fund.

Everest Legal Fees:

The SLC investigated whether infoGROUP paid expenses related to litigation involving Everest Investment Management LLC.

In 2001, Everest Capital Limited, a company unrelated to infoGROUP or Vinod Gupta, sued Everest Investment Management LLC under the Lanham Act for using the name “Everest.” As part of the litigation, a court imposed sanctions on infoGROUP, which had been served with a third-party subpoena.

The SLC has determined that no remedial action is indicated with respect to this issue.

Stock Options:

The SLC investigated the circumstances surrounding stock option grants to Vinod Gupta, former President Bill Clinton, and an outside company named Mindspirit LLC.

On July 31, 2001, the Compensation Committee granted 700,000 options to be allocated at the discretion of Vinod Gupta. Vinod Gupta is listed as one of the potential recipients. Thus, the Compensation Committee appears to have authorized Vinod Gupta to allocate options to himself. Several members of the Compensation Committee stated that there was an “understanding” that Vinod Gupta would take 500,000 of these options for himself. Vinod Gupta, however, did not allocate any of these options to himself. All other stock option grants to Vinod Gupta originated from the Compensation Committee or the Board. The SLC has determined that no remedial action is indicated with respect to this issue.

In April 2002, infoGROUP signed a consulting agreement with former President Clinton that extended from May 1, 2002 to April 30, 2005. The agreement provided that Clinton would give advice and counsel to Vinod Gupta on strategic growth and business development in exchange for 100,000 stock options and other compensation. The Clinton consulting agreement was discussed at the April 15 and July 15, 2002 Audit Committee meetings, but there is no record of an approval of the option grant or a resolution giving Vinod Gupta authority to grant such options. President Clinton’s options expired without being exercised. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to the authority to issue options generally, although no specific remedial action is necessary with respect to the unexercised and expired options granted to former President Clinton.

In 2001, infoGROUP entered into a consulting agreement with Mindspirit LLC (“Mindspirit”) to “provide advice and guidance to Vin Gupta, CEO of infoGROUP, on strategic issues associated with the growth and sustainability of the company.” Under the agreement, Mindspirit was entitled to 200,000 stock options; all of these options were exercised. These options were not approved by the Board or any Board committee. According to Vinod Gupta, Mindspirit was created by the wives of Rajat Gupta and Anil Kumar, two employees of McKinsey & Company who were rendering business advice to Vinod Gupta and infoGROUP. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue.

Former President Clinton’s Consulting Agreement:

The SLC investigated the circumstances surrounding infoGROUP’s consulting payments to former President Clinton.

In April 2002, infoGROUP signed a consulting agreement with former President Clinton that extended from May 1, 2002 to April 30, 2005. The agreement provided that former President Clinton would give advice and counsel to Vinod Gupta on strategic growth and business development in exchange for $2.1 million and other compensation. The Audit Committee discussed the terms of a proposed three-year contract with former President Clinton. In September 2005, infoGROUP and former President Clinton executed a new consulting agreement that extends from October 1, 2005 through September 30, 2008. The agreement provided that President Clinton would give advice and counsel to Vinod Gupta on strategic growth and business development in exchange for $1.2 million and other compensation. There is no evidence that the Audit Committee or Board discussed this consulting agreement. Former President Clinton spoke at Company events, mentioned Vinod Gupta and infoGROUP in speeches to other audiences, helped introduce Vinod Gupta to potential business contacts, and appears to have helped attract significant business to infoGROUP.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is necessary with respect to the authority that Company officers have regarding transactions entered into on behalf of the Company, although no monetary remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue.

Laurel Gupta:

The SLC investigated whether: (1) infoGROUP paid rent on Laurel Gupta’s (Vinod Gupta’s wife) apartment in New York City; and (2)

infoGROUP made consulting payments to Laurel Gupta in addition to her salary.

In September of 1998, infoGROUP hired Laurel Gupta (formerly Gottesman) as its Director of Public Relations. From 1998 — 2005, Laurel Gupta spent most of her time in New York where the majority of investors are located. She worked out of her apartment because infoGROUP did not have a New York office when she started working for the Company. Because she worked out of her home, Laurel Gupta received a home office allowance starting in 2000 for one-third of her rent, given that her home office took up one-third of her apartment. The payments ceased in early 2006 because Laurel Gupta began spending a substantial portion of her time in California, working out of infoGROUP’s San Mateo office. All payments by infoGROUP to Financial Communications, Inc., a company owned and controlled by Laurel Gupta, or Samson Management, Inc., Laurel Gupta’s landlord, were home office reimbursements, although infoGROUP sometimes labeled the payments as “consulting payments.”

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to the hiring of family members of certain officers and directors although no specific remedial action is necessary with respect to payments made to Laurel Gupta.

Corporate Avengers:

The SLC investigated the circumstances surrounding infoGROUP’s payments to Corporate Avengers, LLC, a company owned and controlled by Laurel Gupta’s son and Laurel Gupta’s ex-husband’s stepson.

In early 2006, Corporate Avengers signed a consulting agreement with infoGROUP. From February 2006 to December 2006, Laurel Gupta’s son received $2,000 per month for “viral marketing” and “social networking” services. No infoGROUP employees were able sufficiently to describe services provided by Corporate Avengers. The contract was not renewed at the end of the term.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue.

Paul Pelosi:

At the request of the Company’s outside auditors, the SLC investigated what services Paul Pelosi, an infoGROUP employee and son of Nancy Pelosi, provides to the Company.

Pelosi, who holds a JD and MBA and has experience in the real estate industry, was hired in February 2007 as infoGROUP’s Vice President for Strategic Development. Pelosi works out of infoGROUP’s San Mateo, California office and reports directly to Vinod Gupta. He is responsible for identifying potential acquisitions for the Company.

The SLC has determined that no remedial action is indicated with respect to this issue.

2005 Proxy Statement:

The SLC investigated whether Vinod Gupta understated his beneficial ownership of infoGROUP stock in the Company’s 2005 proxy statement, which, among other things, sought shareholder approval for amendments to the Company’s stock option plan.

From at least 1995 through early 2006, Vinod Gupta’s beneficial ownership statements did not include shares of infoGROUP stock held by various family and charitable trusts that Vinod Gupta controlled. The Company’s proxy statements during nearly all of this time also appear not to have included this information. No evidence has been found of an understanding of any error in the filings, during the years when they were made. While preparing the Company’s 2006 proxy statement, outside counsel for the Company discovered that approximately 2.4 million shares beneficially owned by Vinod Gupta through various trusts had not been reported in his beneficial ownership filings or the Company’s earlier proxy statements. At that time, the Company’s outside counsel recommended that Vinod Gupta retain independent counsel. In response, Vinod Gupta retained the law firm of Andrews Kurth LLP. The Company paid Andrews Kurth for its work in connection with this matter. On April 12, 2006, Vinod Gupta filed a new Schedule 13G/A that reported his beneficial ownership of Company stock held by various trusts. The April 17, 2006 proxy statement filed by the Company in advance of its May 26, 2006 annual meeting likewise included Vinod Gupta’s beneficial ownership of Company stock held by the trusts.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to the Company’s disclosure controls, although no specific action is now necessary with respect to the disclosure of Vinod Gupta’s beneficial ownership. The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to the payments to Andrews Kurth for its work on Vinod Gupta’s Schedule 13G/A filing. In addition, remedial action is appropriate with respect to the vote to amend the Company’s stock option plan pursuant to the 2005 Proxy Statement.

2004 & 2005 Form 10-K Filings:

The SLC investigated the circumstances surrounding the Company’s disclosures relating to Annapurna in its Form 10-K filings for the fiscal years ending on December 31, 2004, and December 31, 2005.

On February 8, 2005, Vasant Raval, an infoGROUP director and former Chair of the Audit Committee, distributed a memorandum on the Company’s related-party transactions for 2004 to George Haddix, Dennis Walker, Martin Kahn, and Elliott Kaplan, as well as to Board counsel from Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi. It provided a breakdown of $1.5 million in payments to Annapurna during 2004, including payments for “NetJets,” “Use of personal properties (residences),” “Use of personal properties (boat),” “Contractor services,” and “Travel services.” Approximately $1 million of this amount related to aircraft expenditures. By late February 2005, the Company began the process of preparing its Form 10-K for 2004. At the start of the drafting process, a footnote addressing related-party transactions explained that infoGROUP’s payments to Annapurna were for “usage of the aircraft and other travel expenses.” This phrase was taken from the disclosure language used in the Company’s Form 10-K for 2003. At some point in the process, the phrase “and other travel expenses” was deleted, leaving only the “usage of the aircraft” language. Thereafter, numerous individuals reviewed the draft 2005 Form 10-K, including Vinod Gupta; Tim Hoffman, the Company’s Chief Accounting Officer; Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi L.L.P., the Company’s outside counsel; and KPMG, the Company’s auditors. On March 9, 2005, the Audit Committee met and approved a draft of the Form 10-K “subject to final review and approval by [Raval] of the disclosures of related-party transactions . . . .” On March 10, 2005, director Richard Borda sent an email to Raval stating: “I believe it is incorrect to say $1.5 million was paid to Annapurna ‘for usage of the aircraft.’ The $1.5 million included substantial amounts not related to usage of the aircraft.” Besides this email, there is no evidence that any infoGROUP outside directors focused on the language relating to the payments to Annapurna. On March 11, 2005, Hoffman circulated a draft of the 2004 Form 10-K to outside counsel, KPMG, and others at the Company, stating, with respect to Annapurna, that the expenses were incurred “for usage of the aircraft and related services” (emphasis added). On March 16, 2005, the Company filed its 2004 Form 10-K with the SEC containing the Annapurna-related language contained in the March 11, 2005 draft.

Other formulations of the Annapurna-related disclosures appeared in subsequent SEC filings. On March 28, 2005, the Company filed a proxy

statement with the SEC that contained a description of Annapurna payments as “for usage of the aircraft.” On May 10, 2005, and August 9, 2005, the Company filed Form 10-Qs that each described Annapurna payments as “primarily for the business use of the aircraft.” On March 10, 2006, the Company filed its 2005 Form 10-K. The language of the Annapurna-related disclosure in that filing was identical to the language in the 2004 Form 10-K. The SLC has found no evidence that this language received any further scrutiny during the preparation of the 2005 Form 10-K. The statement in the 2004 and 2005 Form 10-Ks that Annapurna Corporation bills the Company “when the Company’s employees and officers use the aircraft” appeared in nearly identical language in proxy statements and Form 10-K filings from 2002 onward.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue.

Going-Private Offer & Special Committee:

The SLC investigated: (1) the circumstances surrounding a June 8, 2005 press release announcing a revision to the Company’s earnings guidance; (2) Vinod Gupta’s offer to take the Company private on June 13, 2005; (3) the independence of the special committee; and (4) the dissolution of the special committee.

The SLC investigated the circumstances surrounding a June 8, 2005 press release announcing a revision to the Company’s earnings guidance for FY 2005.

In May 2005, Vinod Gupta took significant steps to formulate an offer to take the Company private. For example, Vinod Gupta engaged investment bankers at Stephens Inc. by late May to advise him in connection with a potential going-private transaction; a draft of Vinod Gupta’s going private offer letter appears to have been prepared on May 21, 2005, and provisionally dated June 10, 2005; and Stephens made a detailed presentation to Vinod Gupta on May 27, 2005, which included an analysis of the components of a potential going-private transaction. In a press release dated June 6, 2005, the Company announced a pricing change, which had the effect of substantially reducing discounts offered to list resellers. The Company appears to have taken steps to implement the new pricing policy as early as April 2005, and it was likely known at the time that revenues would be negatively impacted. While a business rationale for the pricing policy change has been proffered to the SLC, the Committee has been unable to obtain an explanation as to why June 6 was chosen as the date for a public announcement of the pricing policy change. In a press release dated June 8, 2005, the Company announced a

downward adjustment to its earnings guidance for FY 2005. The downward adjustment was attributed in the press release to weakness in revenue in the Company’s Donnelly Marketing unit and Small Business Group. The Company chose June 8 as the date for a public announcement reportedly because the Company’s Chief Financial Officer was scheduled to attend a Stephens Inc. investor conference the following day. Immediately following the announcement, the Company’s stock fell from $11.94 to $9.85 per share.

The SLC also investigated the circumstances surrounding a June 13, 2005, offer by Vinod Gupta to take the Company private at $11.75 per share. By letter dated June 13, 2005, five days following the June 8 revised earnings guidance, Vinod Gupta transmitted a going-private offer of $11.75 per share, while also stating his intention not to sell his shares or vote in favor of any transaction involving a change in control of the Company. Vinod Gupta’s offer price was lower than the offer price he appears to have been considering in late May at the time of the presentation to him by his investment bankers.

Further, the SLC investigated the circumstances surrounding the independence of a Special Committee formed to evaluate Vinod Gupta’s going-private offer.

The Special Committee was composed of four directors: Martin Kahn (Chair), Charles Stryker, Vasant Raval, and Anshoo Gupta (deceased). After considering other candidates, the Special Committee engaged legal counsel from Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP (“Fried Frank”) on or before June 21, 2005, along with financial advisor Lazard Freres & Co. (“Lazard”) on or before July 22, 2005, to advise the Committee in connection with Vinod Gupta’s offer. Both Fried Frank and Lazard made presentations to the Committee and offered advice throughout the Committee’s process. After considering its legal obligations under Delaware law, as well as financial analysis conducted by Lazard, the Committee decided on August 23, 2005 not to accept Vinod Gupta’s offer of $11.75 per share, and instead to present Vinod Gupta with two alternatives. These alternatives – apparently communicated by the Committee’s Chair, Martin Kahn, to Vinod Gupta on August 24, 2005 – were as follows: (1) conduct an auction process with a short list of potential buyers; or (2) negotiate exclusively with Vinod Gupta conditioned on a post-signing market check and his agreement to sell his shares if unwilling to top a superior offer. During the conversation with Kahn, Vinod Gupta withdrew his offer.

Finally, the SLC investigated the circumstances surrounding the dissolution of the Special Committee formed to evaluate Vinod Gupta’s going-private offer at a Board meeting held on August 26, 2005.

On August 25, 2005, the Special Committee announced that Vinod Gupta had withdrawn his offer, but publicly stated its intention to continue seeking strategic alternatives. On August 26, the Board met via telephone to discuss the Special Committee’s findings and next steps in light of Vinod Gupta having withdrawn his offer. After a discordant discussion of the reasons for and against disbanding the Special Committee, the Board, with Vinod Gupta’s participation, voted 5-3-1 to disband the Committee (three of the Committee members – Martin Kahn, Anshoo Gupta and Charles Stryker – voted against dissolution and the other – Vasant Raval – abstained from the vote). Directors Vinod Gupta, George Haddix, Elliott Kaplan, Harold Andersen and Dennis Walker voted to disband.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue.

Trades of OneSource Stock:

The SLC investigated: (1) the timing and details of Vinod Gupta’s trades in shares of OneSource through a trust that he controlled; (2) the timing of Vinod Gupta’s interest in the Company’s acquisition of OneSource in relation to his personal trading activities; and (3) the timing of and circumstances relating to the Board’s knowledge of and actions regarding Vinod Gupta’s personal trading activities in OneSource.

Between October 15, 2003 and October 16, 2003, Vinod Gupta purchased, through a trust that he controlled, 25,000 shares of OneSource stock at per-share prices ranging from $9.69 to $9.77. At some point during that month, Vinod Gupta also learned that OneSource was potentially available for acquisition. After the Company learned that OneSource had received an unsolicited offer to acquire all of its outstanding shares at a price of $8.10 per share, the Board authorized and approved, on February 17, 2004, the acquisition of OneSource pursuant to a tender offer to acquire all outstanding shares at a purchase price of $8.35. After subsequent negotiations and a competing tender offer, the Board approved a tender offer for OneSource stock at between $8.80 and $9.25 per share, at the discretion of Vinod Gupta, on April 6, 2004.

On April 13, 2004, Vinod Gupta sold his 25,000 shares of OneSource at $8.21, for a net loss of approximately $1.50 per share. OneSource announced on April 29, 2004 that it would merge with infoGROUP. The

transaction was structured as a tender offer for 100% of OneSource’s outstanding shares of common stock for $8.85 per share.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate to ensure that the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and other related policies are complied with and enforced although no specific remedial action is appropriate with respect to Vinod Gupta’s trades in OneSource.

Trades of Opinion Research Corporation Stock:

The SLC investigated: (1) the timing and details of Vinod Gupta’s trades in shares of Opinion Research Corporation (“ORC”) through a trust that he controlled; (2) the timing of Vinod Gupta’s interest in the Company’s acquisition of ORC in relation to his personal trading activities; and (3) the timing of and circumstances relating to the Board’s knowledge of and actions regarding Vinod Gupta’s personal trading activities in ORC.

On March 3, 2005, Vinod Gupta discussed ORC on a call with the investment banker who ultimately assisted infoGROUP in acquiring ORC. Between March 4, 2005 and April 11, 2005, Vinod Gupta purchased, through a trust that he controlled, 55,000 shares of ORC stock for an average price of $7.16 per share. On or around April 26, 2005, Vinod Gupta began actively pursuing infoGROUP’s acquisition of ORC. There was insufficient evidence for the SLC to conclude precisely when Vinod Gupta first contemplated that the Company might acquire ORC. After the infoGROUP Board authorized negotiations relating to the acquisition of ORC in June 2005, the Company offered to buy all issued and outstanding shares of ORC common stock at $10.00 per share. At the conclusion of the parties’ negotiations, the Company agreed, on August 4, 2006, to acquire ORC for $12.00 per share.

Between August 7, 2006 and August 9, 2006, Vinod Gupta sold 22,000 shares of his ORC stock for between $11.38 and $11.53 per share. On August 15, 2006, the Company filed a beneficial ownership report (“Form 13D”) with the SEC in connection with the ORC acquisition. The filing disclosed that Vinod Gupta’s trust owned 33,000 shares of ORC stock. There is no evidence that anyone at the Company was aware of Vinod Gupta’s ownership of or trading in ORC stock before August 2006. On September 12, 2006, the Board’s independent directors met in Executive Session to discuss Vinod Gupta’s trading in and ownership of ORC. After an independent review undertaken at the request of the Board’s Nominating & Corporate Governance Committee, the Board provided Vinod Gupta with a letter dated October 20, 2006, stating that Vinod Gupta’s transactions in ORC “did not appear to involve any illegal conduct but were contrary to the Company’s Code of Business Conduct

and Ethics.” While Gupta disagreed that his conduct had violated the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, he agreed in November 2006 to disgorge the profits he had made on his transactions in ORC stock and to sell his remaining shares of ORC to the Company at his original purchase price.

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to the costs incurred in connection with the independent review that was undertaken at the request of the Nominating & Corporate Governance Committee. In addition, remedial action is appropriate to ensure that the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and other related policies are complied with and enforced.

Interactions with Analyst:

The SLC investigated Vinod Gupta’s interactions with Kevane Wong, an analyst at JMP Securities, LLC.

Following infoGROUP’s acquisition of ORC, JMP Securities published a report by Wong on August 7, 2006, that described infoGROUP’s acquisition of ORC as “pricey” and “only marginally accretive.” On the morning of August 8, 2006, Wong received a phone call from Vinod Gupta. Vinod Gupta complained that Wong had not done proper research on the acquisition and threatened Wong with an FBI investigation. On August 10, 2006, JMP Securities publicly announced that it had dropped coverage of infoGROUP

The SLC has determined that remedial action is appropriate with respect to this issue;

B. The SLC, in the exercise of its business judgment, has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders that the Consolidated Derivative Action be fully and finally settled in the manner and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Stipulation, and that these terms and conditions are fair, reasonable, and adequate. The SLC has reached this conclusion only after a comprehensive consideration of the pertinent factual and legal issues surrounding the allegations made in the Amended Consolidated Complaint, and only after an extensive investigation that spanned more than five months. In addition, the SLC’s determinations were informed by various prudential considerations, including the costs (financial and otherwise) of litigation, the uncertainty and risk inherent in any litigation, the potential disparity between the costs associated with continued litigation and a potential recovery

sufficient to justify these costs, and the possibility that continued litigation would threaten harm to the Company’s reputation and distract the Company’s Board and senior management from managing the affairs and operations of the Company.

C. Vinod Gupta believes he has substantial defenses to the claims against him in the Amended Consolidated Complaint, based on his belief that the challenged transactions were legitimate business activities approved or ratified by the Board, independent directors or Audit Committee in the sound exercise of their business judgment, and/or were entirely fair to the Company.

D. While the Defendants believe that the claims asserted in the Amended Consolidated Complaint do not have merit, they also recognize and acknowledge the following: (i) the expense and length of continued proceedings necessary to prosecute the Consolidated Derivative Action; (ii) the comprehensive nature of the SLC’s investigation and the good-faith exercise of the SLC’s business judgment that the claims asserted in the Amended Consolidated Complaint should be resolved; and (iii) the uncertainty and risk inherent in litigation.

H. dismiss the Consolidated Derivative Action as to the Company and Defendants on the merits and with prejudice, without fees, costs, and expenses, if any, to any Party; except that fees, costs, and expenses may be paid as provided: (i) in this Stipulation; or (ii) with respect to Defendants, by separate agreement or other obligation pertaining to the advancement of fees, costs and/or expenses or to indemnification;

K. authorize the Parties, without further approval from the Court, to agree to adopt such amendments, modifications and expansions of this Stipulation that are consistent with the Judgment and the Stipulation and that do not limit the rights of the Named Shareholder Plaintiffs, the Defendants, the Company, the SLC, or the Company’s shareholders under the Stipulation;

G. Waiver by any Party of any breach of this Stipulation by any other Party shall not be deemed a waiver of any other prior or subsequent breach of this Stipulation, and failure by any Party to assert any claim for breach of this Stipulation shall not be deemed to be a waiver as to that or any other breach and will not preclude any Party from seeking to remedy a breach and enforce the terms of this Stipulation.

H. Each counsel or other person executing the Stipulation on behalf of any Party hereto warrants that he or she has the full authority to do so.

I. The Stipulation shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the successors and assigns of the Parties.

The following Corporate Governance Measures (as defined in the Stipulation) will be implemented as soon as practicable:

Enhanced Corporate Controls

The Independent Directors (as defined in the Stipulation) shall retain an individual with the title “Executive Vice President for Business Conduct and General Counsel,” who will:

	4.		Approve certain expense reimbursement requests at or above specified dollar amounts, as determined by the Independent Directors; and

	5.		Serve on the Company’s Disclosure Committee.

	B.		All Company reimbursements for expenses shall be subject to uniform, Company-wide policies and procedures.

The Independent Directors shall cause to be put in place and approve a “delegation of authority” protocol delineating the authority that different officers shall have regarding the size of transactions they can enter into on behalf of infoGROUP. The protocol shall require the sale of the Company’s yacht and prohibit the ownership or lease of yachts. It shall also require that the Executive Vice President for Business Conduct and General Counsel approve and report to the Audit Committee the following:

	1.		Consulting contracts at or above specified dollar amounts, as determined by the Independent Directors;

	2.		Charitable contributions over a specified per-gift or aggregate annual amount;

	3.		The purchase or lease of aircraft (whole or partial interests) or motor vehicles (not including conventional car rentals); but in no event shall the Company pay expenditures incurred by the CEO in connection with more than two (2) motor vehicles owned by the CEO at any given time;

	4.		Mortgage or rental payments on offices, homes, apartments, or any other real property not used exclusively for business purposes; but in no event shall the Company pay work-related expenditures incurred by the CEO in connection with more than two (2) homes, apartments, or any other real property owned by the CEO at any given time; and

	5.		Club membership fees; but in no event shall the Company pay for more than two (2) club memberships for the CEO at any given time.

	D.		Family members of the CEO or directors of the Company shall be prohibited from serving as directors, officers or employees of, or as consultants to, the Company.

Any such pre-approval shall be promptly reported to the Audit Committee.

	E.		The Independent Directors shall cause to be put in place and approve a business expense policy applicable to all Company employees that shall prohibit any reimbursement for non-business expenditures.

	4.		Require the Audit Committee to make a finding, as a condition to its pre-approval of a covered related-party transaction (other than a charitable contribution), that either the transaction’s terms were determined through a competitive bidding process or the transaction is on terms no less favorable than those generally available to unaffiliated third-parties under the same or similar circumstances;

	5.		Require Audit Committee pre-approval of any related-party transaction that would result in the aggregate amount of transactions for that related party exceeding $120,000 in a fiscal year and for all additional related-party transactions for the remainder of the fiscal year and condition such pre-approval on the findings required by (3) and (4), above, with respect to covered related-party transactions;
