Explanatory Note:

This Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment”) relates to the Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 17, 2019, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on November 27, 2019, Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on December 12, 2019, and Amendment No. 3 filed with the SEC on December 23, 2019 (as so further amended, the “Schedule 13D”) by Simon F. Nynens, an individual (“Nynens”), with respect to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) of Wayside Technology Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”) whose principal executive offices are located at 4 Industrial Way West, Suite 300, Eatontown, New Jersey 07724.

This Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13d-2 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Item 1.           Security and Issuer

Unchanged.

Item 2.           Identity and Background

Unchanged.

Item 3.           Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Unchanged.

Item 4.           Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

On April 16, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), the Issuer entered into a Settlement Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Nynens, Shepherd Kaplan Krochuk, LLC (“SKK”), North & Webster SSG, LLC (“N&W”), and each of Dennis Crowley, David Shepherd, David Kaplan, Timothy Krochuk and Samuel Kidston (collectively with SKK and N&W, the “SKK Parties”).

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Issuer agreed to voluntarily dismiss its complaint with prejudice against Nynens, SKK, and N&W filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey Monmouth County on or about February 14, 2020. The Issuer also agreed to purchase all of Nynens’ 261,631 Shares owned, of record or beneficially, as of the Effective Date, at a price set by calculating the volume-weighted average price of such shares trading on the NASDAQ Global Market for the ten trading days ending on the close of the trading day immediately preceding the Effective Date, and with each party paying for its own fees and expenses. As of the Effective Date, Nynens and the SKK Parties entered into an agreement (the “Termination of Voting Agreement”) to terminate that certain agreement among Nynens, SKK and N&W, dated November 27, 2019, pursuant to which the parties thereto agreed to form an investment vehicle to acquire up to 100% of the Issuer’s outstanding capital stock. Further, the SKK Parties agreed to terminate the Joint Filing Agreement, dated November 27, 2019, by and between Nynens and the SKK Parties. Additionally, as of the Effective Date, Nynens agreed to withdraw the notice of intent to nominate director candidates for election at the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders of the Issuer, submitted by Nynens on December 20, 2019, and to cease all solicitation of proxies and other activities in connection with such annual meeting.

With respect to each annual or special meeting of the Issuer’s stockholders during the term of the Agreement, Nynens and the SKK Parties also agreed to certain customary standstill provisions prohibiting them from, among other things, (i) making certain announcements regarding the Issuer’s transactions, (ii) soliciting proxies, (iii) acquiring beneficial ownership of any of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, (iv) advising, encouraging or influencing any person with respect to the voting or disposition of any securities of the Issuer, (v) taking actions to change or influence the Issuer’s board of directors, management or the direction of certain Issuer matters, and (vi) exercising certain stockholder rights.

The Agreement will terminate on December 31, 2022. Each of the Issuer, Nynens and the SKK Parties has the right to terminate the Agreement earlier if (i) Nynens or the SKK Parties, in the case of the Issuer, commit or (ii) the Issuer, in the case of Nynens or the SKK Parties, commits a material breach of the Agreement and such breach is not cured within 15 days after notice or, if such breach is not curable within 15 days, the breaching party has not taken any substantive action to cure within such 15-day period.

The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 17, 2020, and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Termination of Voting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Termination of Voting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.           Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Note: Pursuant to the Agreement, Nynens agreed to sell to the Issuer for cash all of Nynens’ shares of Common Stock owned of record or beneficially, as of the Effective Date. Such purchase and sale is required to be effected as promptly as practicable, but in any event no later than five (5) business days after the Effective Date. This Item 5 reflects Nynens’ holdings after giving effect to the settlement of such purchase and sale (the “Share Transfer”).

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(a)

Effective as of the settlement of the Share Transfer, Nynens shall beneficially own 0 shares of Common Stock.

(b)

1. Sole power to vote or direct vote: 0

2. Shared power to vote or direct vote: 0

3. Sole power to dispose or direct the disposition: 0

4. Shared power to dispose or direct the disposition: 0

(c)

Not applicable.

(d)

No person other than Nynens is known to have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of, dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock reported in this Statement.

(e)

Effective as of the settlement of the Share Transfer, Nynens shall cease to beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.

Item 6.           Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:

On April 16, 2020, the Reporting Persons entered into the Agreement with the Issuer, as defined and described in Item 4, which is incorporated herein by reference.
