Pomeroy to be Acquired for $5.02 per Share

Pomeroy IT Solutions Inc. (Nasdaq: PMRY), an information technology ("IT") solutions provider, announced today that it has entered into a definitive merger agreement to be acquired by Hebron LLC, a holding company owned by David B. Pomeroy, II, a director of the Company and its founder (the "Agreement"). Mr. Pomeroy is the beneficial owner of approximately 20% of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock. Under the terms of the Agreement, Hebron LLC will acquire all of the outstanding common stock of the Company not owned by Mr. Pomeroy and his wife for $5.02 per share. The offer represents a 30% premium over the May 19, 2009, closing price of $3.86, and a 41% premium over the last month average closing price of $3.55.

The Company's Board of Directors, acting upon the unanimous recommendation of a Special Committee composed solely of directors unrelated to Hebron LLC or Mr. Pomeroy, approved the Agreement and resolved to recommend that the Company's stockholders vote to adopt and approve the Agreement.

"We believe this transaction provides the greatest likelihood for achieving the highest value for the Company's stockholders, and that this is also in the best interests of our customers, partners and employees. The added flexibility of being a private company will help us to focus on supporting our customers with the highest levels of service that they have come to expect," said Christopher C. Froman, Pomeroy's President and CEO.

"After an extensive review of strategic alternatives with Company management and our financial advisors, we determined this all cash sale of the Company to Dave Pomeroy is in the best interests of the Company's stockholders," said Debbie Tibey, the Chairwoman of the Special Committee.

The transaction, which is expected to close in the third quarter of 2009, is subject to approval of the Agreement by the holders of a majority of the Company's outstanding common stock and other customary closing conditions. The Agreement also contains a "go-shop" provision under which the Special Committee, with the assistance of its independent advisors, has the right to solicit superior acquisition proposals from third parties through June 7, 2009. The Company does not intend to disclose any developments with respect to this solicitation process unless or until the Special Committee has made a decision with respect to any superior proposals it may receive. No assurances can be given that the solicitation of superior proposals will result in an alternative transaction.

Houlihan Lokey is serving as the exclusive financial advisor to the Special Committee of the Board of Directors on the transaction.

Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLP is serving as legal advisor to the Special Committee of the Company's Board of Directors in connection with the transaction.
