Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
As previously reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 20, 2009, Pomeroy IT Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") dated May 19, 2009, with Hebron LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Parent"), Desert Mountain Acquisition Co., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("MergerSub") and, with respect to certain sections thereof, David B. Pomeroy, II.  Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of Mr. Pomeroy.
 
On June 8, 2009, the parties to the Merger Agreement entered into a First Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "First Amendment") to clarify the terms of the Merger Agreement so that all outstanding awards of Company stock options and Company restricted stock will be treated in the merger consistent with the intentions of the Company board of directors and committees of the Company board of directors in granting such awards and in accordance with the instruments governing such awards.
 
The foregoing summary of the First Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the First Amendment, a copy of which is attached as an exhibit to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
