ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

As previously announced and as part of the strategy of Vertis, Inc. (the “Company”) to preserve and enhance its near-term liquidity, on April 1, 2008, the Company elected to forego making a $17.1 million interest payment on its 9-3/4% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes (the “Second Lien Notes”). Under the terms of the indenture governing the Second Lien Notes, the Company had a thirty-day grace period in which to make this interest payment before it would be an event of default.

Pursuant to a forbearance agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) dated April 30, 2008, the holders of an aggregate of 77% of the outstanding principal amount of the Second Lien Notes agreed to forbear from exercising their rights and remedies under the indenture governing the Second Lien Notes and from directing the trustee under the indenture from exercising any such rights and remedies on the holders’ behalf until the occurrence of certain events (the “Forbearance Termination Events”).

On May 14, 2008, the holders of an aggregate of 80% of the outstanding principal amount of the Second Lien Notes agreed to an amendment to the Forbearance Agreement (the “First Amendment”). Under the Forbearance Agreement as amended by the First Amendment, the holders of an aggregate of 80% of the outstanding principal amount of the Second Lien Notes agreed to forbear from exercising their rights and remedies under the indenture governing the Second Lien Notes and from directing the trustee under the indenture from exercising any such rights and remedies on the holders’ behalf until the occurrence of the following events: (i) the failure of a specified percentage of certain note holders having executed a restructuring and lock-up agreement (the “Restructuring Agreement”) on or before May 20, 2008, (ii) the termination of the Restructuring Agreement in accordance with its terms, (iii) the occurrence of certain events under the forbearance agreement dated April 3, 2008 between the Company and the lenders under the Company’s four-year revolving credit agreement, as may be amended, (iv) the occurrence of certain events under the forbearance agreement dated as of April 2, 2008 by and among Vertis Receivables II, LLC, Webcraft, LLC, Webcraft Chemicals, LLC, Enteron Group, LLC, Vertis Mailing, LLC, the Company and General Electric Capital Corporation, as may be amended and (v) the occurrence of certain other events described in the Forbearance Agreement as amended by the First Amendment (the “Forbearance Period”). All other terms of the Forbearance Agreement remain unchanged by the First Amendment.
