The question is from the part of the grammar agreement of the verb with the subject.

✰ Words joined to a singular subject by with or as well as do not affect the number of the verb. Therefore the verb is in the singular.
✰ When two or more subjects in the singular adjoint by or, nor, either ....or, neither .....nor the verb is put in the singular.
