ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS.
     Subsequent to the distribution of the 2007 Proxy Statement of Industrial Distribution Group, Inc. (the “Company”), the Company received critical comments from a third party shareholder services company regarding the request that stockholders approve the Company 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Incentive Plan”). The Company originally drafted the Stock Incentive Plan to include a one-to-one share count ratio on restricted stock and certain other awards granted under the Stock Incentive Plan. The shareholder services company has confirmed it would withdraw its objection to approval of the Stock Incentive Plan if the Stock Incentive Plan were to provide for an increased share count ratio with respect to such awards, so that the Company would remain below the shareholder value transfer calculation limit the shareholder services company considers to be appropriate for the Stock Incentive Plan viewed together with the Company’s Management Incentive Plan. The Company believes stockholder approval of the Stock Incentive Plan is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders, and that continued objection by the shareholders services company to the original share count ratio might frustrate obtaining stockholder approval. As a result, effective April 23, 2007, the Company revised the Stock Incentive Plan to increase the share count ratio by revising Section 4.1(b) thereof.
     The 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, reflecting the revised Section 4.1(b), is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.9 and incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 9.01. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS
(d)      Exhibits:
  10.9   The Industrial Distribution Group, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on February 21, 2007 and revised April 23, 2007, to be effective May 1, 2007, if approved by the stockholders of the Company.
