Additional Information and Where to Find It

I-many plans to file with the SEC and mail to its stockholders a proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) in connection with the Merger and related transactions. The Proxy Statement will contain important information about I-many, Buyer, the Merger and related matters. I-many has already filed a preliminary proxy statement with the SEC on May 14, 2009. This proxy statement is only a preliminary version of the definitive document, however, and should not be relied upon until such time as the definitive proxy statement is filed with the SEC. Investors and security holders are urged to read the Proxy Statement carefully when it is available.

Investors and security holders will be able to obtain free copies of the Proxy Statement (when it is available) and other documents filed with the SEC by the Company through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov.

In addition, investors and security holders will be able to obtain free copies of the Proxy Statement (when it is available) from the Company by contacting I-many, Inc., Attn: Secretary, 399 Thornall Street, 12th Floor, Edison, NJ.

I-many and Buyer, and their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the stockholders of I-many in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Information regarding I-many’s directors and executive officers will be included in the Proxy Statement. Additional information regarding these directors and executive officers is contained in I-many’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated April 29, 2009, which is filed with the SEC and available free of charge at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov. As of March 31, 2009, I-many’s directors and executive officers beneficially owned approximately 5,885,994 shares, or 10.9%, of I-many’s common stock. This excludes 7,383,264 shares owned by Ramius LLC, of which Mark R. Mitchell, a director of I-many, is an executive officer and for which Mr. Mitchell disclaims beneficial ownership . Information regarding Buyer’s directors and officers and a more complete description of the interests of I-many’s directors and officers will be available in the Proxy Statement.

Safe Harbor for Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this document regarding the proposed transaction between I-many and Buyer, and any other statements about I-many management’s future expectations, beliefs, goals, plans or prospects constitute forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any statements that are not statements of historical fact (including statements containing “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “intends,” “estimates,” “approximately” and similar expressions) should also be considered to be forward looking statements. There are a number of important factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those indicated by such forward looking statements, including but not limited to the risks surrounding the closing of the transaction, including failure of I-many’s stockholders to approve the merger; operational disruption from the merger; general economic and market conditions and such other factors described in I-many’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, and other filings that I-many makes with the SEC from time to time. In addition, the statements in this document reflect I-many’s expectations and beliefs as of the date of this document. I-many anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause its expectations and beliefs to change. However, while I-many may elect to update these forward-looking statements publicly at some point in the future, it specifically disclaims any obligation to do so, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
