          Company, which amount will be the sum of (i) the estimated book value of HoldCo as of March 31, 2025, plus (ii) a closing premium payment of $2,418,750 and less (iii) unpaid transaction expenses as of immediately prior to the Closing (together,
          the &#8220;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Initial Consideration</span>&#8221;). The Initial Consideration is subject to a customary post-Closing adjustment process based on the book value of the assets associated with HoldCo as of the effective time of the Closing (as adjusted, the &#8220;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Purchase


            Price</span>&#8221;). In addition to the Purchase Price, the Company may earn and receive Holdback Premium (as defined below) payments and two different types of Earn-Out (as defined below) payments based on the post-Closing performance of the HoldCo
          Group (as defined below), as operated by the Buyer.</span></span></div>

    <div style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 11pt;">The Financing Business, which provides financing of information technology equipment, software and related services, is conducted by
      certain direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company (the &#8220;<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Operating Subsidiaries</span></span>&#8221;), including <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-style: italic;">e</span>Plus


      Group, inc. and <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-style: italic;">e</span>Plus Government, inc., each a Commonwealth of Virginia corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In order to sell the business to
      the Buyer in the Transaction, the Company conducted an internal reorganization (the &#8220;<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Reorganization</span></span>&#8221;) whereby ownership of the Operating Subsidiaries was transferred to HoldCo.
      Additionally, ownership of certain subsidiaries of the Operating Subsidiaries was transferred from the Operating Subsidiaries to the Company. The resulting group of HoldCo and its subsidiaries is referred to as the &#8220;<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">HoldCo Group</span></span>&#8221;.</div>

    <div style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Upon the Closing of the Transaction, the Buyer will
        purchase 100% of the membership interests of HoldCo from the Company, thereby purchasing the Company&#8217;s domestic</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> subsidiaries comprising <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">the majority of
          the Financing Business. In connection with the Transaction and the Purchase Agreement, the Company and Buyer will enter into a transition services agreement, pursuant to which the Company and Buyer will provide certain transition services to
          Buyer and the Company, respectively, on a post-Closing basis.</span></span></div>

    <div style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 11pt;">The Company may receive aggregate post-Closing cash payments of up to $2,956,250 (the &#8220;<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Holdback Premium</span></span>&#8221;) based on the achievement of customer lease receivable originations targets by HoldCo (i) from the Closing Date to the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) from the 18-month
      anniversary of the Closing Date to the 30-month anniversary of the Closing Date.</div>

    <div style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 11pt;">The two types of earn-out payments that are potentially payable to the Company are based on (i) the volume of originations of certain
      types of lease receivables (the &#8220;<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Lease Originations Earn-Out</span></span>&#8221;) and (ii) the profitability of certain lease receivables originated either to U.S. federal governmental entities or
      for which a prime contractor acting on behalf of a government entity is the obligor&#160; (the &#8220;<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Transaction Gains Earn-Out</span></span>,&#8221; and together with the Lease Originations Earn-Out, the &#8220;<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn-Outs</span></span>&#8221;). Each of the Earn-Outs will be measured for each of the first three consecutive twelve-month periods following the Closing. The Lease Originations Earn-Out is capped at
      $10 million in aggregate for all three post-Closing years. The Transaction Gains Earn-Out does not have a maximum cap.</div>

    <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 11pt;">The Closing is subject to satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions, including (i) the receipt of any governmental consents required for the
      consummation of the Transaction having been obtained, and the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the &#8220;<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">HSR


          Act</span></span>&#8221;); (ii) the absence of any law or order enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Transaction; (iii) the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party(ies), subject to materiality standards contained in the
      Purchase Agreement; (iv) each party having performed in all material respects its respective agreements and covenants under the Purchase Agreement; (v) the absence of a material adverse effect, as defined in the Purchase Agreement, with respect to
      the Financing Business; (vi) the continued employment of certain key executives of the Financing Business; and (vii) the absence of a pending or threatened legal action seeking to prohibit the Transaction or limit the Company&#8217;s ability to sell HoldCo
      to the Buyer. The Company and Buyer made the applicable filings under the HSR Act in connection with the Transaction and the applicable waiting period has expired.</div>

    <div style="font-size: 11pt;"><br/>
    </div>

    <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 11pt;">The Purchase Agreement contains various representations, warranties and covenants of the parties that are customary for a transaction of this nature,
      including (i) covenants of the Company to not engage in certain specified competitive activities related to the Financing Business in the United States and not to solicit any member of senior management or certain employees of the HoldCo Group, both
      for a period of three years from and after the Closing Date and subject to certain exceptions, (ii) from the signing of the Purchase Agreement until the Closing (or the Purchase Agreement&#8217;s earlier termination), the Company has agreed not to directly
      or indirectly solicit the possible acquisition of any of the Operating Subsidiaries by a third party,&#160; and (iii) from the date of the Purchase Agreement until the Closing, the Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct the
      HoldCo Group&#8217;s business in the ordinary course of business. The representations and warranties made by the parties in the Purchase Agreement are to, and solely for the benefit of, each other. The assertions embodied in the representations and
      warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules provided by the parties to each other in connection with the signing of the Purchase Agreement. While the Company does not believe that
      these disclosure schedules contain information that the securities laws require the parties to publicly disclose, other than information that has already been disclosed, they do contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to
      the representations and warranties of the parties set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Investors should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement as characterizations of the actual state of facts about the parties
      because they were only made as of the date of the Purchase Agreement and are modified in important part by the underlying disclosure schedules. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement were used for the purpose of
      allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as fact. Further, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may have changed since the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent
      information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company&#8217;s public disclosures.</div>

    <div style="font-size: 11pt;"><br/>
    </div>

    <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 11pt;">Subject to certain limitations, the Company and Buyer have agreed to indemnify each other for losses arising from specified breaches of the Purchase
      Agreement and certain other liabilities, as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The indemnification provided by each of the Company and the Buyer for breaches of representations and warranties are subject to customary deductibles and caps and
      exceptions to such deductibles and caps, including in the case of fraud. Each party&#8217;s indemnification obligations for losses to each other for breaches of representations and warranties are further subject to a limitation of the amount of the
      Purchase Price. The Purchase Agreement provides for customary termination rights that may be exercised by the Company or Buyer, including in the event that the Closing has not occurred on or before December 20, 2025. The Company expects to close the
      Transaction within the next 60 days.</div>

      of 1995. Words such as &#8220;may,&#8221; &#8220;will,&#8221; &#8220;should,&#8221; &#8220;expects,&#8221; &#8220;intends,&#8221; &#8220;projects,&#8221; &#8220;plans,&#8221; &#8220;believes,&#8221; &#8220;estimates,&#8221; &#8220;targets,&#8221; &#8220;anticipates,&#8221; and other similar words or expressions, or the negative thereof, generally can be used to help identify
      these forward-looking statements.&#160;Examples of forward-looking statements include statements relating to the anticipated benefits of the Transaction, which is subject to Closing conditions and a number of post-Closing adjustments to the Initial
      Consideration; our ability to earn and/or receive the Holdback Premium and Earn-Out payments, if any; the timetable for completing the Transaction, which may not be completed in a timely fashion or at all, may disrupt our business operations, and may
      be more difficult or costly than expected; and any other statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact. Forward-looking statements are based on expectations and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable when made, but
      that may not prove to be accurate. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially and
      adversely from these forward-looking statements. Among these factors are risks related to general conditions in the economy and our industry, including those due to regulatory changes, the ability of the parties to consummate the Transaction, the
      performance of HoldCo Group, as operated by the Buyer after the Closing, and other important factors disclosed previously and from time to time in the Company&#8217;s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent Annual
      Report on Form 10-K and Current Reports on Form 8-K.</div>

        not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such items claimed by either Party or less than the smallest value for such items claimed by either Party, and its determination may not be outside the range comprised of Buyer&#8217;s
        calculation of Closing Adjustment Items and Seller&#8217;s calculation of Closing Adjustment Items. The Accounting Arbitrator shall make its determination in accordance with the Accounting Principles and the other provisions in this Agreement. The
        Accounting Arbitrator&#8217;s decision shall be final, conclusive, binding, and non-appealable except for manifest error or fraud, and the Closing Statement, together with the calculation of Closing Adjustment Items, as modified by the Accounting
        Arbitrator, shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller and Buyer as the Final Statement and Final Adjustment Items, respectively. The fees, expenses and costs of the Accounting Arbitrator incurred by the Parties in connection with the
        Accounting Arbitrator&#8217;s review hereunder shall be (i) borne by Seller in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of the disputed items submitted to the Accounting Arbitrator pursuant to this <u>Section 2.2(e)</u> that are unsuccessfully
        disputed by Seller (as finally determined by the Accounting Arbitrator) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of all disputed items submitted to the Accounting Arbitrator pursuant to this <u>Section 2.2(e)</u>, and (ii) borne by Buyer in the
        proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of the disputed items submitted to the Accounting Arbitrator pursuant to this <u>Section 2.2(e)</u> that are unsuccessfully disputed by Buyer (as finally determined by the Accounting Arbitrator) bears to
        the aggregate dollar amount of all disputed items submitted to the Accounting Arbitrator pursuant to this <u>Section 2.2(e)</u>. The total amounts of the disputed items shall be calculated on an absolute value basis for purposes of determining the
        fees. For example, if Buyer claims the amount in objection is $1,000,000 and Seller claims the amount is $0 and the Accounting Arbitrator determines that Buyer has a valid claim for $400,000 of the $1,000,000, Buyer shall bear sixty percent (60%)

    <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 11pt;">This press release contains &#8220;forward-looking statements&#8221; within the meaning of the &#8220;safe harbor&#8221; provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
      of 1995. Words such as &#8220;may,&#8221; &#8220;will,&#8221; &#8220;should,&#8221; &#8220;expects,&#8221; &#8220;intends,&#8221; &#8220;projects,&#8221; &#8220;plans,&#8221; &#8220;believes,&#8221; &#8220;estimates,&#8221; &#8220;targets,&#8221; &#8220;anticipates,&#8221; and other similar words or expressions, or the negative thereof, generally can be used to help identify
      these forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include statements relating to the anticipated benefits of the sale of our financing business, which is subject to certain closing conditions and a number of adjustments to the
      initial consideration paid to us; the timetable for completing the sale of our financing business, which may not be completed in a timely fashion or at all, may disrupt our business operations, and may be more difficult or costly than expected; and
      any other statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact. Forward-looking statements are based on expectations and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable when made, but that may not prove to be accurate.
      Forward-looking statements are not guarantees and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from these forward-looking
      statements. Among these factors are risks related to general conditions in the economy and our industry, including those due to regulatory changes, the ability of the parties to consummate the closing of the transaction, the performance of the legacy
      financing business, as operated by PEAC after the closing, and other important factors disclosed previously and from time to time in the Company&#8217;s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent Annual Report on Form
      10-K and Current Reports on Form 8-K.&#160; All of the information set forth in this press release is current as of the date of this release and ePlus undertakes no duty or obligation to update this information either as a result of new information,
      future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable U.S. securities law.<font style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">&#160;</font></div>
