As a director or executive officer of infoUSA, Inc. ("infoUSA") you are subject
to Section 306(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which prohibits certain

OTHERWISE ACQUIRING OR TRANSFERRING INFOUSA COMMON STOCK OR ITS DERIVATIVES.
THIS PROHIBITION APPLIES TO ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT PECUNIARY INTEREST YOU MAY
HAVE IN SUCH SECURITIES, SUCH AS INFOUSA COMMON STOCK HELD BY IMMEDIATE FAMILY
MEMBERS LIVING WITH YOU, IN TRUST, OR BY CONTROLLED PARTNERSHIPS OR
CORPORATIONS. THIS PROHIBITION ALSO APPLIES WITHOUT REGARD TO WHETHER YOU
PARTICIPATE IN THE PLAN OR YOUR TRANSACTIONS ARE INSIDE THE PLAN.

Upon termination of the blackout period, you will be permitted to resume
transactions in such securities.

Please note the following information regarding the upcoming blackout period:

o During the blackout period, participants in the Plan will be temporarily
unable to request a loan or a withdrawal, change their investment elections for
new deposits and/or change current investment holdings, or change their current
salary deferral percentage.
