     This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Form S-8 Registration Statement is being filed solely to remove from registration securities that were registered and will not be issued in connection with the Registrant’s offering.
     Vertrue Incorporated (the “Registrant”) filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (No. 333-23161) (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to a total of 360,000 shares of the Registrant’s common stock, which were to be issued in connection with the 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Stock Plan”).
     The Registrant entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 22, 2007, as amended by the Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 18, 2007 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Registrant, Velo Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Velo Acquisition Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub would merge with and into the Registrant, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub would cease, and the Registrant would continue as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).
     On August 15, 2007, the Registrant held a special meeting of stockholders at which the stockholders of the Registrant approved the adoption of the Merger Agreement. The Merger became effective on August 16, 2007 upon the filing of a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.
     Pursuant to the Registrant’s undertaking in Part II, Item 9 in the Registration Statement, the Registrant is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to withdraw the Registration Statement, including all amendments and exhibits to the Registration Statement, with respect to all unsold shares of Registrant common stock registered under the Registration Statement.
