Subject Company: Quepasa Corporation
Commission File No.: 1-33105

On July 20, 2011, Quepasa Corporation sent the following to its employees.


Dear Team –

Today, Quepasa signed a “definitive agreement” to merge with myYearbook, a leading social discovery web and mobile platform in the U.S.

The combination with myYearbook will double the size of Quepasa’s existing user base while positioning the company for significantly higher growth in mobile and social games, advertising and virtual currency.

Key highlights of the combined companies include:

 
Ø
Over 70 million registered web users;
 
Ø
Consolidated last twelve month revenues of $33.6MM;
 
Ø
2.4 billion monthly page views;
 
Ø
Significant mobile presence as reflected by 2.2 MM installs of myYearbook for iPhone and Android and 11.5 MM mobile gaming installs across the Android platform;
 
Ø
2.1 MM social gaming installs across Orkut and Facebook; and
 
Ø
A team of over 200 people, including over 100 engineers and product specialists.
 
I believe that one of the most exciting aspects of the merger is the highly complimentary nature of both companies’ skills and products.  Some specific examples include:

 
Ø
Quepasa.com will gain access to a new set of applications, such as myYearbook’s Live synchronous gaming platform, and its Android and iPhone technologies;

 
Ø
Quepasa Games will gain access to the myYearbook user base and should see an accelerated path toward development of mobile applications; and
 
 
 

 
 
 
Ø
Our DSM contests will gain a new sales channel via myYearbook’s 23 person sales team.

Following the closing of the merger, which is expected for the 4th quarter of this year, Geoff Cook, CEO and Founder of myYearbook, will assume the role of COO and President of the Consumer Internet Division, which will include both the myYearbook.com and Quepasa.com sites.  Geoff is a product visionary with a long track record in building profitable consumer tech businesses.

We expect the executive team to continue to play substantially the same roles as they do today.

I look forward to meeting with the teams in Hermosillo, Curitiba and Los Angeles over the coming weeks in order to provide you with my perspective on the merger and answer any questions in person.
Thanks,


John Abbott
Chief Executive Officer
