ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS

On December 2, 2015, Lone Star Value Investors, LP (together with its affiliates, “Lone Star”) announced that it was withdrawing at that time its consent solicitation campaign to solicit consents from stockholders of Edgewater Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), for a number of proposals, the ultimate effect of which would be to remove five current members of the Board of Directors of the Company, representing all current directors other than the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and replace them with five director nominees selected by Lone Star (the “Lone Star Solicitation”). In light of Lone Star’s withdrawal of the Lone Star Solicitation, the Company, which filed a definitive consent revocation statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 25, 2015, is withdrawing at this time its solicitation of consent revocations in opposition to the Lone Star Solicitation.
