      2006, is by and among ePlus inc., a Delaware corporation (“ePlus”), the
      Subsidiaries of ePlus signatory hereto (including ePlus, each individually
      a
“Borrower” and collectively, the “Borrowers”), the Banks signatory hereto (the
“Banks”), and National City Bank, as Administrative Agent for the Banks (the
“Administrative Agent”).

    

    BACKGROUND

     

    A.  Pursuant
      to that certain Credit Agreement dated
      September
      23,
      2005,
      by and
      among the Borrowers, the Banks, and the Administrative Agent, as amended by
      a
      First Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated July 11, 2006 (as the same may be
      modified and amended from time to time, including by this Second Amendment,
      the
“Credit Agreement”), the Banks agreed, inter
      alia,
      to
      extend to the Borrowers a revolving credit facility in the maximum aggregate
      principal amount of $35,000,000.

    

    B.  The
      Borrowers did not deliver their annual audited financial statements prior to
      May
      31, 2006, as required by Section 5.1(a) of the Credit Agreement, which event
      was
      waived through July 28, 2006, pursuant to the First Amendment, and did not
      deliver their “Projections” for 2007 prior to June 30, 2006, as required by
      Section 5.1(d) of the Credit Agreement (the “Delivery Event”), and have advised
      the Banks that they will be unable to deliver their 2006 annual financial
      statements in the timeframe set forth in the First Amendment.

    

    C.  The
      Borrowers have requested an extension of the delivery date requirements for
      their 2006 annual financial statements and Projections for 2007, as described
      above, to which the Banks are willing to agree, on the terms and subject to
      the

      THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and for other good and
      valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
      acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto
      agree
      as follows:

    4.  Limited
      Waiver and Consent; Ratification.

      the Borrowers hereby waive any and all defenses, set-offs and counterclaims
      which they, whether jointly or severally, may have or claim to have against
