ITEM 5.02

DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR PRINCIPAL OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF PRINCIPAL OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.

John V. Howard, Jr., chief legal officer and secretary of Vertis, Inc. (“Vertis”), entered into a relocation real estate purchase and sale agreement with an independent relocation company (the “Buyer”) dated December 26, 2007 (the “Relocation Agreement”). Vertis is party to an agreement with the Buyer whereby eligible employees receive certain relocation assistance and related services. Under the Relocation Agreement, the Buyer will pay to Mr. Howard and his spouse an equity advance for their personal residence in the amount of $851,500 (the “Purchase Price”), funded by Vertis, less an outstanding mortgage of $455,458 as of December 10, 2007. Based on an independent appraisal, Vertis believes that the Purchase Price approximates the fair market value of the personal residence. The Buyer will then market the property for resale to an unrelated buyer, and Vertis will incur the costs associated with or receive the net proceeds from that resale.

The description of the Relocation Agreement set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms of the Relocation Agreement, which will be filed by the Company as an exhibit to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
