2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION, USE OF ESTIMATES AND CONSOLIDATION

The Company has incurred net losses historically and has an accumulated deficit of $146,474$186,117 as of September 30, 2009.2010. The Company also has significant contractual obligations related to its recourse and non-recourse debt for the remaining part of fiscal year 20102011 and beyond. Management expects that the Company will continue to generate net losses for the foreseeable future.  Based on the Company’s cash position at September 30, 2009,2010, and expected cash flows from operations, management believes that the Company has the ability to meet its obligations through September 30 2010. In August 2009, the Company entered into a private placement of a senior secured note and extinguished its existing senior notes, which provided net proceeds after repayment of existing debt, funding of an interest reserve and transactions fees and expenses of approximately $11,300 of working capital funding., 2011. The Company has signed commitment letters for additional non-recourse debt capital, primarily to meet equipment requirements related to the Company’s Phase II Deployment, (see Note 11). Although the Company recently entered into certain agreements related to the Phase II Deployment (see Note 7),and there is no assurance that financing for the Phase II Deployment will be completed as contemplated or under terms acceptable to the Company or its existing stockholders.

RECLASSIFICATION
The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Because of the uncertainty inherent in such estimates, actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Pavilion Theatre, Managed Services and the Access Digital Server Assets have been reported as assets held for sale and discontinued operations for all periods presented.  The March 31, 20092010 consolidated balance sheetssheet and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 were reclassified to break out the recourse and non-recourse notes payable to conform to the current period presentation.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Phase I Deployment and Phase II Deployment

Virtual print fees (“VPFs”) are earned pursuant to contracts with movie studios and distributors, wherebywhere by amounts are payable to Phase 1 DC, CDF I and to Phase 2 DC, when movies distributed by the studio are displayed on screens utilizing the Company’s digital cinema equipment (the “Systems”)Systems installed in movie theatres.  VPFs are earned and payable to Phase 1 DC and CDF I based on a defined fee schedule with a reduced VPF rate year over year until the sixth year (calendar 2011) at which point the VPF rate remains unchanged through the tenth year.  One VPF is payable for every movie title displayed per System. The amount of VPF revenue is therefore dependent on the number of movie titles released and displayed onusing the Systems in any given accounting period. VPF revenue is recognized in the period in which the movie first opens for general audience viewing in thata digitally-equipped movie theatre, as Phase 1 DC’s, CDF I’s and Phase 2 DC’s performance obligations have been substantially met at that time.

Phase 2 DC’s agreements with distributors require the payment of VPFs, according to a defined fee schedule, for 10ten years from the date each system is installed; however, Phase 2 DC may no longer collect VPFs once “cost recoupment,” as defined in the agreements, is achieved.  Cost recoupment will occur once the cumulative VPFs and other cash receipts collected by Phase 2 DC have equaled the total of all cash outflows, including the purchase price of all Systems, all financing costs, all “overhead and ongoing costs”, as defined, and including the Company’s service fees, subject to maximum agreed upon amounts during the three-year rollout period and thereafter, plus a compounded return on any billed but unpaid overhead and ongoing costs, of 15% per year.  Further, if cost recoupment occurs before the end of the eighth contract year, a one-time “cost“ cost recoupment bonus” is payable by the studios to Cinedigm.the Company.  Any other cash flows, net of expenses, received by Phase 2 DC following the achievement of cost recoupment are required to be returned to the distributors on a pro-rata basis. At this time, the Company cannot estimate the timing or probability of the achievement of cost recoupment.

Alternative content fees (“ACFs”) are earned pursuant to contracts with movie exhibitors, whereby amountsa mounts are payable to Phase 1 DC, CDF I and to Phase 2 DC, generally as a percentage of the applicable box office revenue derived from the exhibitor’s showing of content other than feature films, such as concerts and sporting events (typically referred to as “alternative content”).  ACF revenue is recognized in the period in which the alternative content first opens for audience viewing.

Services

For software multi-element licensing arrangements that do not require significant production, modification or customizationcu stomization of the licensed software, revenue is recognized for the various elements as follows: revenue for the licensed software element is recognized upon delivery and acceptance of the licensed software product, as that represents the culmination of the earnings process and the Company has no further obligations to the customer, relative to the software license. Revenue earned from consulting services is recognized upon the performance and completion of these services. Revenue earned from annual software maintenance is recognized ratably over the maintenance term (typically one year).

Revenue is deferred in cases where:  (1) a portion or the entire contract amount cannot be recognized as revenue, due to non-delivery or pre-acceptance of licensed software or custom programming,programmin g, (2) uncompleted implementation of application service provider arrangements (“ASP Service”), or (3) unexpired pro-rata periods of maintenance, minimum ASP Service fees or website subscription fees. As license fees, maintenance fees, minimum ASP Service fees and website subscription fees are often paid in advance, a portion of this revenue is deferred until the contract ends. Such amounts are classified as deferred revenue and are recognized as earned revenue in accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policies described above.

Revenues from the delivery of data via satellite and hard drive are recognized upon delivery, as DMS’ performance obligations have been substantially met at that time.

Exhibitors who will purchase and own Systems using their own financing will pay an upfront activation fee of $2 thousand per screen to the Company (the “Exhibitor-Buyer Structure”).  These upfront activation fees are recognized in the period in which these exhibitor owned Systems are ready for content, as the Company has no further obligations to the customer.  The Company will then manage the billing and collection of VPFs and will remit all VPFs collected to the exhibitors, less an administrative fee that will approximate 10% of the VPFs collected.  This administrative fee is recognized in the period in which the billing of VPFs occurs, as performance obligations have been substantially met at that time.  The Company does not recognize VPF revenue within Services.
Content & Entertainment

USM has contracts with exhibitors to display pre-show advertisements on their screens, in exchange for certain fees paid to the exhibitors. USM then contracts with businesses of various types to place their advertisements in select theatre locations, designs the advertisement, and places it on-screen for specific periods of time, generally ranging from three to twelve months.  Cinema advertising service revenue, and the associated direct selling, production and support cost, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period the related in-theatre advertising is displayed, pursuant to the specific terms of each advertising contract. USM has the right to receive or bill the entire amount of the advertising contract upon execution, and therefore such amount is recorded as a receivable at the time of execution, and all related advertising revenue and all direct costs actually incurred are deferred until such time as the an in-theatre advertising is displayed.

The right to sell and display such advertising, or other in-theatre programs, products and services, is based upon advertising contracts with exhibitors which stipulate payment terms to such exhibitors for this right. Payment terms generally consist of fixed annual payments or annual minimum guarantee payments, plus a revenue share of the excess of a percentagepercenta ge of advertising revenue over the minimum guarantee, if any.  The Company recognizes the cost of fixed and minimum guarantee payments on a straight-line basis over each advertising contract year, and the revenue share cost, if any, in accordance with the terms of the advertising contract.

Barter advertising revenue is recognized for the fair value of the advertising time surrendered in exchange for alternative content.  The Company includes the value of such exchanges in both Content & Entertainment’s net revenues and direct operating expenses.costs.  There may be a timing difference between the screening of alternative content and the screening of the underlying advertising used to acquire the content.  The acquisitionacqu isition cost is being recorded and recognized as a direct operating expensecost by CEG when the alternative content is screened, and the underlying advertising is being deferred and recognized as revenue ratably over the period such advertising is screened by USM.  TheFor the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company has not recorded any net revenues orand direct operating expensescosts related to barter advertising duringof $0 and $541, respectively. For the three and six months ended September 30, 20082010 and 2009.2009, the Company recorded net revenues and direct operating costs related

to barter advertising of $356 and $541, respectively.

CEG has contracts for the theatrical distribution of third party feature films and alternative content.  CEG’s distribution fee revenue is recognized at the time a feature film and alternative content is viewed, based on CEG’s participation in box office receipts.  CEG has the right to receive or bill a portion of the theatrical distribution fee in advance of the exhibition date, andan d therefore such amount is recorded as a receivable at the time of execution, and

7


all related distribution revenue is deferred until the third party feature films’ or alternative content’s theatrical release date.

Other

Movie theatre admission and concession revenues are generated at the Company’s nine-screen digital movie theatre, the Pavilion Theatre. Movie theatre admission revenues are recognized on the date of sale, as the related movie is viewed on that date and the Company’s performance obligation is met at that time. Concession revenues consist of food and beverage sales and are also recognized on the date of sale.

Managed Services’ revenues, which consist of monthly recurring billings pursuant to network monitoring and maintenance contracts, are recognized as revenues in the period the services are provided, and other non-recurring billings are recognized on a time and materials basis as revenues in the period in which the services were provided.

Other revenues, attributable to the Access Digital Server Assets, which consist of monthly recurring billings for hosting and network access fees, are recognized as revenues in the period the services are provided.

Since May 1, 2007, the Company’s three internet data centers (“IDCs”) have been operated by FiberMedia AIT, LLC and Telesource Group, Inc. (together, “FiberMedia”), unrelated third parties, pursuant to a master collocation agreement.  Although the Company is still the lessee of the IDCs, substantially all of the revenues and expenses were being realized by FiberMedia and not the Company and since May 1, 2008, 100% of the revenues and expenses are being realized by FiberMedia. In June 2009, one of the IDC leases expired, leaving two IDC leases with the Company as lessee.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the three months ended September 30, 20082010 and 2009 was $0.00 and $0.57, respectively, and $0.91 and $0.57, for the six months ended September 30, 2009 was $0.552010 and $0.57, respectively, and $0.58 and $0.57, for the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively.  There were no stock options exercised during the three and six months ended September 30, 20082010 and 2009.2009.

The Company estimated the fair value of stock options at the date of each grant using a Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following assumptions:

The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes option valuationpricing model for options granted under the Company’s stock option plan awards is the historical yield on U.S. Treasury securities with equivalent remaining lives. The Company does not currently anticipate paying any cash dividends on common stock in the foreseeable future. Consequently, an expected dividend yield of zero is used in the Black-Scholes option valuationopti on pricing model.  The Company estimates the expected life of options granted under the Company’s stock option plans using both exercise behavior and post-vesting termination behavior, as well as consideration of outstanding options.   The Company estimates expected volatility for options granted under the Company’s

CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE COSTS

Internal Use Software

The Company accounts for internal use software development costs based on three distinct stagesEmployee stock-based compensation expense related to the software development process for internal use software.  The first stage, the preliminary project stage, includes the conceptual

formulation, design and testing of alternatives.  The second stage, or the program instruction phase, includes the development of the detailed functional specifications, coding and testing.  The final stage, the implementation stage, includes the activities associated with placing a software project into service.  All activities included within the preliminary project stage are considered research and development and expensedCompany’s stock-based awards was as incurred.  During the program instruction phase, all costs incurred until the software is substantially complete and ready for use, including all necessary testing, are capitalized, Capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated lives ranging from three to five years, beginning when the software is ready for its intended use.

Software to be Sold, Licensed or Otherwise Marketed

Software development costs that are incurred subsequent to establishing technological feasibility are capitalized until the product is available for general release. Amounts capitalized as software development costs are amortized using the greater of revenues during the period compared to the total estimated revenues to be earned or on a straight-line basis over estimated lives ranging from three to five years. The Company reviews capitalized software costs for impairment on a periodic basis with other long-lived assets.  Amortization of capitalized software development costs, included in direct operating costs,follows for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009 amounted to $194 and $161, respectively and $387 and $323 for the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively.  At September 30, 2009, there were no unbilled receivables under such customized software development contracts included in unbilled revenue in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.periods presented:

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets of the acquired business. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized; rather, they are tested for impairment on at least an annual basis. Intangible assets with finite lives, primarily customer relationships, non-compete agreements, patents and software technology, are amortized over their useful lives.
In order to test goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, a determination of the fair value of our reporting units and intangible assets with indefinite lives is required and is based, among other things, on estimates of future operating performance of the reporting unit and/or the component of the entity being valued. The Company assesses itsis required to complete an impairment test for goodwill forand intangible assets with indefinite lives and record any resulting impairment losses at least annually andon an annual basis or more often if warranted by events or changes in interim periods if certain triggering events occurcircumstances indicating that the carrying value may exceed fair value (“impairment indicators”).

Estimating future cash flows and determining their present values are based upon, among other things, certain assumptions about expected future operating performance and appropriate discount rates determined by management.
As of September 30, 2008 and 2009, no impairment charge was recorded.

As of September 30, 2009,2010, the Company’s finite-lived intangible assets consisted of customer relationships and agreements, theatre relationships, covenants not to compete, trade names and trademarks and Federal Communications Commission licenses (for satellite transmission services), which are estimated to have useful livesliv es ranging from two to ten years.  NoDuring the three and six months ended September 30, 2010 the Company acquired intangible assets were acquiredof $6 thousand.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVEDLONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets when events or conditions exist that indicate a possible impairment exists. The assessmentasse ssment for recoverability is based primarily on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of its long-lived assets from expected future undiscounted net cash flows. If the total of expected future undiscounted net cash flows is less than the total carrying value of the assets the asset is deemed not to be recoverable and possibly impaired.  The Company then estimates the fair value of the asset to determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized.  An impairment loss will be recognized if for the difference between the fair value (computed based upon) and the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value.  Fair value is estimateddetermined by computing the expected future discounted cash flows.  During the three and six months ended SeptemberSepte mber 30, 20082010 and 2009, no impairment charge for long-lived assets was recorded.

NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic and diluted net loss per common share has been calculated as follows:

Basic and diluted net loss per common share =Net loss – preferred dividends
 
Weighted average number of Common Stockcommon stock
 outstanding during the period

Shares issued and any shares that are reacquired during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they are outstanding.

The Company incurredincu rred net losses for each of the three and six months ended September 30, 20082010 and 2009 and, therefore, the impact of dilutive potential common shares from outstanding stock options, warrants, restricted stock, and restricted stock units, totaling 4,360,88220,949,329 shares and 23,451,352 shares as of September 30, 20082010 and 2009, respectively, were excluded from the computation as it would be anti-dilutive.

ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE ACTIVITIES

Derivative financial instruments are recorded as either assets or liabilities at fair valu e.  In April 2008,May 2010, the Company settled the interest rate swap in place with the GE Credit Facility.  In June 2010, the Company executed anthree separate interest rate swap agreementagreements (the “Interest Rate Swap”Swaps”) (see Note 5) to limit the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates.rates related to the 2010 Term Loans.  Changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments are either recognized in accumulated other comprehensive incomeloss (a component of stockholders' equity) or in the condensed consolidated statement of operations depending on whether the derivative is being used to hedge changes in cash flows or fair value.  The Company has determined that this is not a hedging transactionsought hedge accounting and therefore, changes in the value of its Interest Rate SwapSwaps were recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations (see Note 5).

Fair Value of Financial InstrumentsFAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value measurement disclosures are grouped into three levels based on valuation factors:

·
    Level 1 – quotedquot ed prices in active markets for identical investments
·
    Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, market corroborated inputs, etc.)
·
    Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis use the market approach, where prices and other relevant information isare generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

The following table summarizestables summarize the levels of fair value measurements of the Company’s financial assets:

3.ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Pavilion Theatre generates movie theatre admission and concession revenues. Movie theatre admission revenues are recognized on the date of sale, as the related movie is viewed on that date and the Company's performance obligation is met at that time. Concession revenues consist of food and beverage sales and are also recognized on the date of sale. The Pavilion Theatre, while once a digital cinema test site and showcase for digital cinema technology, is no longer needed in that capacity due to widespread adoption of the technology. Management decided to pursue its sale during the fourth quarter of the year ended March 31, 2010. The Company had preliminary offers from interested buyers and expects a sale to be concluded within a year. Accordingly, the Company classified the Pavilion Theatre as assets held for sale in the quarter ended March 31, 2010 and reported the results of Pavilion Theatre as discontinued operation for the year ended March 31, 2010 and all prior periods.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company experienced a reduction in its estimated sales price of the Pavilion Theater as well as decline in its operating performance. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1,763 and the estimate used to measure the impairment loss is a Level 3 fair value estimate. As of September 30, 2010, there is no goodwill associated with the Pavilion Theatre.
The Company's other segment consists of Managed Services and Access Digital Server Assets. In August 2010, the Company sold the stock of Managed Services and the Access Digital Server Assets in exchange for $268 in cash and $1,150 in service credits under a 46-month service agreement (the "Managed Services Agreement"). The service credits will serve to pay the balance of the purchase price pursuant to the Managed Services Agreement under which the buyer will continue to perform certain information technology related services for the Company. The Access Digital Server Assets currently host the Company's websites, and provide networking and other information technology services to the Company. If there is an event of default by the buyer or if the Managed Services Agreement is terminated pursuant to its terms, the buyer would be required to pay all of the then outstanding (unused) service credits in cash, with immediate acceleration. The operations and cash flows of the other segment has been eliminated from the ongoing operation as a result of the sale, and the Company will have no significant continuing involvement in the operations of these businesses after they are sold. The results of the other segment has been reported in disconti nued operation for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, and all prior period presentation has been reclassified accordingly.
The assets and liabilities of held for sale assets were comprised of the following:

4.    RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Effective July 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) became the single official source of authoritative, nongovernmental generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States.  The historical GAAP hierarchy was eliminated and the ASC became the only level of authoritative GAAP, other than guidance issued by the SEC.  Our accounting policies were not affected by the conversion to ASC.  However, references to specific accounting standards in the footnotes to our condensed consolidated financial statements have been changed to refer to the appropriate section of ASC.

 
11


At its September 23, 2009 board meeting, the FASB ratified final EITF consensus on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables (“Issue 08-1”).  This Issue supersedes Issue 00-21 (codified in ASC 605-25).  Issue 08-1 addresses the unit of accounting for arrangements involving multiple deliverables.  It also addresses how arrangement consideration should be allocated to the separate units of accounting, when applicable. However, guidance on determining when the criteria for revenue recognition are met and on how an entity should recognize revenue for a given unit of accounting are located in other sections of the Codification.  Issue 08-1 will ultimately be issued as an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) that will amend ASC 605-25.  Final consensus is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010.  Entities can elect to apply this Issue (1) prospectively to new or materially modified arrangements after the Issue’s effective date or (2) retrospectively for all periods presented.  The Company does not believe that revisions to ASC 605-25 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

At its September 23, 2009 board meeting, the FASB also ratified final EITF consensus on software revenue recognition (“Issue 09-3”).  This Issue amends ASC 985-605 (formerly SOP 97-2) and ASC 985-605-15-3 (formerly Issue 03-5) to exclude from their scope all tangible products containing both software and non-software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality. That is, the entire product (including the software deliverables and non-software deliverables) would be outside the scope of ASC 985-605 and would be accounted for under other accounting literature. The revised scope of ASC 985-605 (Issue 09-3) will ultimately be issued as an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) that will amend the ASC.  The final consensus is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Entities can elect to apply this Issue (1) prospectively to new or materially modified arrangements after the Issue’s effective date or (2) retrospectively for all periods presented. Early application is permitted.  The Company does not believe that ASC 985-605 (Issue 09-3) will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 167 “AmendmentsAmendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS 167”) (which will be codified in ASC 810-10). Revisions to ASC 810-10 improves financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entitiesent ities and to address (1) the effects on certain provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, as a result of the elimination of the qualifying special-purpose entity concept in SFAS 166 and (2) constituent concerns about the application of certain key provisions of Interpretation 46(R), including those in which the accounting and disclosures under the Interpretation do not always provide timely and useful information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. Revisions toOn April 1, 2010, the Company adopted ASC 810-10 and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements (“ASU 2009-13”), which requires an entity to allocate consideration at the inception of an arrangement to all of its deliverables based on their relative selling prices. This consensus eliminates the use of the residual method of allocation and requires allocation using the relative-selling-price method in all circumstances in which an entity recognizes revenue for an arrangement with multiple deliverables. ASU 2009-13 is effective as of thefor fiscal years beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that beginson or after NovemberJune 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter.2010. The Company is currently evaluatingwill adopt ASU 2009-13 on April 1, 2011 and apply it prospectively. The Company does not expect the impactadoption of adoption and application of revisionsASU 2009-13 to ASC 810-10 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

4.NOTES RECEIVABLE

Notes receivable consistedIn October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-14, “Software (Topic 985): Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements (a consensus of the following:FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” (“ASU 2009-14”).  ASU 2009-14 amends ASC 985-605, “Software: Revenue Recognition,” such that tangible products, containing both software and non-software components that function together to deliver the tangible product’s essential functionality, are no longer within the scope of ASC 985-605. It also amends the determination of how arrangement consideration should be allocated to deliverables in a multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement. ASU 2009-14 will become effective for the Company for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified on or after April 1, 2011. Earlier application is permitte d with required transition disclosures based on the period of adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2009-14 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-11, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Scope Exception Related to anyEmbedded Credit Derivatives (“ASU 2010-11” ). ASU 2010-11 clarifies the scope exception for embedded credit derivative features related to the transfer of theircredit risk in the form of subordination of one financial instrument to another. The amendments address how to determine which embedded credit derivative features, including those in collateralized debt obligations and synthetic collateralized debt obligations, are considered to be embedded derivatives that should not be analyzed for potential bifurcation and separate accounting.  The amendments in connection with anythis pronouncement are effective for each reporting entity at the beginning of its first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2010.  This is effective for the Company as of April 1, 2011.

The Company is a digital cinema services and a content marketing and distribution company driving the Company’s stockholders approved a change inconversion of the Company’s nameexhibition industry from Access Integrated Technologies, Inc.,film to Cinedigm Digital Cinema Corp. and such change was effected October 5, 2009.digital technology.  The Company provides a digital cinema platform that combines technology solutions, provides financial advice and guidance, software services and advice, software services, electronic delivery and content distribution services to content owners and distributors of digital contentand to movie theatresexhibitors.  Cinedigm leverages this digital cinema platform with a series of business applications that utilize the platform to capitalize on the new bus iness opportunities created by the transformation of movie theaters into networked entertainment centers.  The three main applications currently provided by Cinedigm include (i) its digital entertainment origination, marketing and other venues.  distribution business focused on alternative content and independent film; (ii) its operational and analytical software applications; and (iii) its pre-show advertising and theatrical marketing business.  Historically, the conversion of an industry from analog to digital has created new revenue and growth opportunities as well as an opening for new players to emerge for capitalizing on this technological shift at the expense of incumbents.
During the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2009,2010, the Company modified how its

29


decision makers review and allocate resources to operating segments, which resulted in revised reportable segments, but did not impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.  We realigned our focus to fivefour primary businesses:businesses as follows: the first digital cinema deployment (“Phase I Deployment”), the second digital cinema deployment (“Phase II Deployment”), services (“Services”), and media content and entertainment (“Content & Entertainment”) and other (“Other”).  The Company’s Phase I Deployment and Phase II Deployment segments are the non-recourse, financing vehicles and administrators for the Company’s digital cinema equipment (the “Systems”) installed in movie theatres nationwide.  The Company’s Services segment provides technology solutions,the digital cinema platform that
services and supports the Phase I Deploy ment and Phase II Deployment segments as well as is being offered to other third party customers.  Included in these services are asset management services for a specified fee via service agreements with Phase I Deployment and Phase II Deployment; software services,license, maintenance and consulting services; and electronic content delivery services via satellite and hard drive to the motion picture industry,industry.  These services primarily to facilitate the conversion from analog (film) to digital cinema and hashave positioned the Company at what it believes to be the forefront of a rapidly developing industry relating to the delivery and management of digital cinema and other content to theatres and other remote venues worldwide.  The Company’s Content & Entertainment segment provides content marketing and distribution services to alternative and theatrical content owners and to theatrical exhibitors and in-theatre advertising.  The Company’s Other segment providesIn June 2010, the Company decided to discontinue the motion picture exhibition to the general public, information technology consulting services and managed network monitoring services, and hosting services and network access for other web hosting services, (“Access Digital Server Assets”).which are all separate reporting units previously included in our former Other segment.    Overall, the Company’s goal is to aid in the

28


transformation of movie theatres to entertainment centers by providing a platform of hardware, software and content choices.

The Phase I Deployment segment of our business is comprised of Christie/AIX, Inc. (“Phase 1 DC”).  The Phase II Deployment segment is comprised of Access Digital Cinema Phase 2 Corp. (“Phase 2 DC”). The Services segment of our business is comprised of FiberSat Global Services, Inc. d/b/a AccessIT Satellite and Support Services, (“Satellite”), Access Digital Media, Inc. (“AccessDM” and, together with Satellite, “DMS”), Hollywood Software, Inc. d/b/a AccessIT Software (“Software”), and PLX Acquisition Corp.  The Content & Entertainment segment of our business is comprised of UniqueScreen Media, Inc. (“USM”) and Vistachiara Productions, Inc. f/k/a The Bigger Picture, currently d/b/a Cinedigm Content and Entertainment Group (“CEG”). Our Other segment consists of the operations of Core Technology Services, Inc. (“Managed Services”), ADM Cinema Corporation (“ADM Cinema”) d/b/a the Pavilion Theatre (the “Pavilion Theatre”) and our Access Digital Server Assets.  In the past our Other segment included the operations of our internet data centers (“IDCs”).  However, since May 2007, our three IDCs have been operated by FiberMedia, consisting of unrelated third parties, and substantially all of the revenues and expenses were being realized by FiberMedia and not the Company and since May 1, 2008, 100% of the revenues and expenses are being realized by FiberMedia.  In June 2009, one of the IDC leases expired, leaving two IDC leases with the Company as lessee.


The following organizational chart provides a graphic representation of our business and our five reporting segments:four primary businesses:


We have incurred consolidated net losses, including the results of $6.3our non-recourse deployment subsidiaries, of $10.8 million and $1.1$1.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 20082010 and 2009, respectively, and $10.6$17.9 million and $8.2$8.2 million in the six months ended September 30, 20082010 and 2009

30


, respectively, and we have an accumulated deficit of $146.5$186.1 million as of September 30, 2009.2010. We also have significant contractual obligations related to our recoursenon-recourse and non-recourserecourse debt for the remainder ofnext fiscal year 20102011 and beyond. We expect to continue generating consolidated net losses, including our non-recourse deployment subsidiaries, for the foreseeable future. Based on our cash position at September 30, 2009,2010, and expected cash flows from operations, we believe that we have the ability to meet our obligations through September 30 2010., 2011. In May 2010, we entered into a definitive credit agreement on non-recourse debt in the principal amount of $172.5 million and extinguished an existing credit facility and vendor note.  We are seeking to raisehave signed commitment letters for additional non-recourse debt capital, to refinance certain outstanding debt,primarily to meet equipment requirements related to the Phase 2 DC second digital cinema deployment (the “Phase II Deployment”) and for working capital as necessary. Although we recently entered into certain agreements related to theour Phase II Deployment, however there is no assurance that financing of additional Systemsfinanci ng for the Phase II Deployment will be completed as contemplated or under terms acceptable to us or our existing stockholders. We expect any Phase II debt will be non-recourse to the parent company, as is the case with our existing debt at Phase 1 DC.  Failure to generate additional revenues, raise additional capital or manage discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on our ability to continue as a going concern.  The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments which may result from our inability to continue as a going concern.

Revenues decreased $2.0increased $1.4 million or 9%8%.  The decrease in revenues in the Phase I Deployment segment was due, as discussed in our previous quarter, to the shifting of a 10%large movie release into Q1 from Q2 and a resulting decrease in Phase 1 DC’s VPF revenues, attributable to a contractual 16% reduction in VPF rates starting in November 2008, offset by an increase in quarterly screen turnover.  fewer VPFs during the quarter. The increase in revenues in the Phase II Deployment segment was due to Phase 2 DC VPF revenues which were not generated during the three months ended September 30, 2008, as noincreased number of Phase 2 DC’s financed Systems were installed and ready for content until December 2008.to 529 at September 30, 2010 from 160 at September 30, 2009.  The decrease65% increase in revenues in the Services segment was primarily due to (i) a 26% decrease39% increase in DMS revenues, attributable to flat revenues from digital feature and trailer deliveries as DMS maintained its movie studio feature delivery customers butand experienced limited growth in the number of digital delivery sites as industry digital deployments have increased and also benefited from a 52% decrease5% increase in non-theatrical satellite services revenues due to general economic factors;revenues; (ii) Phase 2 DC service fees for additional Phase 2 DC Systems deployed through the Exhibitor-Buyer Structure as well as Cinedigm provided non-recourse financing; (iii) Phase 1 DC service fees earned; and (ii)(iv) a 22% decrease54% increase in Software revenues duerelated to delayedincreased Phase 2 deployments, limiting expecteddeployment license and maintenance fees offset by a modest decrease in other software license and development fees.
As of September 30, 2010 Cinedigm services,through its Phase 2 deployment subsidiary and 3rd party exhibitor-buyer customers, a total of 1,050 Phase 2 DC screens in comparison to 160 at September 30, 2009 and 619 at June 30, 2010. During the quart er ended September 30, 2010, we experienced a delay in the installation of approximately 75 Phase 2 DC System deployments due to vendor equipment supply constraints with such installations expected to occur in the fiscal third and fourth quarters.  We expect Phase 2 DCdigital cinema related service fees, DMS revenues and software license fees to increase as the delayed Phase 2 DC Systems are installed in the fiscal third quarter, as well as expected additional Systems are deployed under both the recent $100 millionvarious non-recourse credit facility committed to by GECC’s Media, Communications & Entertainment business (“GE Capital”)commitments and Société Générale Corporate & Investment Banking (“Soc Gen”) as well as through the exhibitor-buyer model launched in late September 2009 initiallyExhibitor-Buyer Structure with two exhibitors.28 exhibitors as of Sept ember 30, 2010.

In the Content & Entertainment segment, revenues decreased 10% due to a 24% decline inUSM’s in-theatre advertising revenues attributable to the elimination of various under-performing customer contracts, as well as the current weak economic environment, offset by a 4% increase inincreased 19% and national advertising revenues generated by the partnership with Screenvision increased 4% offset by reduced inter-company barter revenues.  Both of these increases reflect improved overall advertising conditions and non-cash barter revenues of $0.5 million, which represents the fair value of advertising provided to alternativeoperating improvements undertaken within USM’s sales force.  CEG’s content providers of CEG.  CEG’s distribution revenues relating to digitally-equipped locations decreased 51% for alternative content and content sponsorship revenues as CEG planned a limited number of events and independent films during the three months ended September 30, 2009.  The CEG distribution slate is expected to be more significant in the second half of our 2010 fiscal year commencing in October 2009increased 136% with the release of Opa! and the December 11, 2009 release of Dave Matthews Band in 3-D.2010 FIFA World Cup™ live 3D sporting event, as well as the ongoing KidToons series.  The primary driver of CEG revenues is the number of programs CEG is distributing, together with the nationwide (and anticipated w orldwide) conversion of theatres to digital capabilities, a trend the Company expects to continue. In addition to the distribution of independent motion pictures, the Company also expects that with its implementation of the CineLiveSM product into movie theatres, CEG’s revenues will increase from the distribution of live 2D and 3D content such as concerts and sporting events.

Content & Entertainment 2,275  2,556  (11)%
  $4,303  $4,241  1 %
Direct operating expenses increased 1%.  The decrease in direct operating costs in the Phase I Deployment segment was

30


primarily due to the forma tion of the Services Company in August 2009 which includes the costs that were previously within the Phase I Deployment segment through August 2009. The increase in the Services segment was primarily related to increased DMS feature and trailer hard drive delivery volumes, additional software development costs and the allocation of certain costs to our Services Company, which were shown within the Phase I Deployment segment in the prior year.  The decrease in the Content & Entertainment segment was primarily related to a 15% increase in minimum guaranteed obligations under theatre advertising agreements with exhibitors for displaying cinema advertising, which corresponded to a 15% increase in advertising revenues, offset by reduced non-cash content acquisition expenses of $0.5 million for CEG related to the fair value of barter advertising provided by USM. We expect direct operating expenses to remain consistent at the current level with any future increases tied to additional revenue growth.

Content & Entertainment 1,648  1,253  32 %
Corporate 2,395  2,123  13 %
  $5,001  $4,262  17 %
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.7 million or 17%.  The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Phase I and Phase 2 Deployment segments was primarily due to prior year costs now being allocated to our Servicer Co.  The increase in the Services segment was mainly due to costs now being allocated from the Phase 1 and Phase 2 Deployment segments. The increase in the Content & Entertainment segment was related to a planned increased staffing levels within the sales force at USM. The increase within Corporate was due to additional transition costs not previously accrued related to the retirement of our CEO of $0.2 million, increased travel costs and a timing recognition shift related to accrued accounting and tax professional fees for fiscal 2011 offset by reduced investor relations rela ted expenses.  During the quarter, the Company took actions to reduce corporate overhead including the elimination of several corporate positions and a reduction in other discretionary spending. The annualized net savings from these actions total approximately $0.5 million and will impact our results beginning with first quarter in fiscal 2012.  As of September 30, 2010 and 2009 and excluding employees in our discontinued operations, we had 177 employees, of which 3 and 4 were part-time employees and 55 and 48 were salespersons, respectively.  Excluding any additional transition costs, we expect selling, general and administrative expenses to remain relatively consistent at the current level.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.2 million or 2%. The increase in the Phase II Deployment segment represents depreciation on the increased number of Phase 2 DC Syst ems which were not in service during the three months ended September 30, 2009.  The increase in the Services segment represents depreciation on the increased number of satellite systems installed for DMS which were not in service during the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in the Content & Entertainment segment reflects reduced depreciation expense on assets which are fully depreciated or amortized at September 30, 2010.   We expect the depreciation and amortization expense in the Ph ase II Deployment and the Services segment to generally increase as new Phase 2 DC Systems and additional satellite systems are installed.

Interest expense decreased $1.9 million or (22)%. Total interest expense included $6.0 million and $7.5 million of interest paid and accrued for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The decrease in interest paid and accrued within the non-recourse Phase I Deployment segment relates to the refinancing of the GE Credit Facility into a new, non-recourse facility rated Ba1 by Moody’s completed in May 2010 (the “2010 Term Loans”).  We expect Phase I Deployment interest expense to decrease significantly as we reduced the interest on Phase 1 debt to 3 Month LIBOR plus 375 basis points above a 1.75% LIBOR floor from 650 basis points above a 2.00% LIBOR floor.   Interest increased within the Phase II Deployment segment related to the non-recourse credit facilities with KBC Bank NV (the “KBC Facilities”) to fun d the purchase of Systems from Barco.  Phase 2 DC’s non-recourse interest expense is expected to increase with the growth in deployments in fiscal 2011. The increase in interest paid and accrued within Corporate related to the amended and restated note with an affiliate of Sageview Capital LP (the "2010 Note").  Interest on the 2010 Note is 8% PIK Interest and 7% per annum paid in cash.  The Company has an interest reserve set aside to cover cash interest payments on this note through September 30, 2011. This increase is offset by the elimination of interest payments on the 2007 Senior Notes which ceased as the 2007 Senior Notes were cancelled in August 2009.
Non-cash interest expense was $0.6 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The decrease in the non-cash interest related to the cessation of interest payments on the 2007 Senior Notes upon their cancellation in August 2009 offset by accretion of $0.5 million on the note payable discou nt associated with the 2010 Note will continue over the term of the 2010 Note.
Change in fair value of interest rate swap
The change in fair value of the interest rate swap was a loss of $1.0 million and a gain of $0.5 million for the three months end ed September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The gain in 2009 for the swap agreement related to the GE Credit Facility, which was terminated on May 6, 2010 upon the completion of the Phase I Deployment refinancing.  It has been replaced by new swap agreements related to the 2010 Term Loans entered into on June 7, 2010 which will become effective on June 15, 2011 and resulted in a loss of $1.0 million.
Change in fair value of warrants
The change in fair value of warrants issued to a designee of Sageview Capital LP (“Sageview”), related to the 2010 Note, were losses of $1.9 million and $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The shares underlying these warrants were registered with the SEC for resale in September 2010 and the Company reclassified the warrant liability of $16.1 million to equity.
Adjusted EBITDA
The Company measures its financial success based upon growth in revenues and earnings before interest, depreciation, amortization, other income (expense), net, stock-based compensation and non-recurring items ("Adjusted EBITDA").  Further, the Company analyzes this measurement excluding the results of its Phase 1 DC and Phase 2 DC subsidiaries, and includes in this measurement intercompany service fees earned by its digital cinema servicing group from the Phase I and Phase II Deployments, which are eliminated in consolidation (see Note 9. Segment Information for further details). During the quarter, the Company achieved an important milestone as its Adjusted EBITDA loss (excluding its Phase 1 DC and Phase 2 DC subsidiaries) declined to $(178,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from $(1.8) million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and from $(489,000) for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and most importantly, the Company

32


achieved its first Adjusted EBITDA positive month of $537,000 in September 2010 (excluding its Phase 1 DC and Phase 2 DC subsidiaries).  Based on the expected Phase 2 DC Systems planned for deployment during the remainder of the fiscal year, the Company expects Adjusted EBITDA perfor mance to continue to improve for the remainder of the fiscal year, due to the intercompany service fees, software license and maintenance fees and other revenues derived from a growing number of Phase 2 DC System installations nationwide, including content delivery fees.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a financial metric to measure the financial performance of the business because management believes it provides additional information with respect to the performance of its fundamental business activities. For this reason, the Company believes Adjusted EBITD A will also be useful to others, including its stockholders, as valuable financial metrics.
Management presents Adjusted EBITDA because it believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplement to net loss from continuing operations as an indicator of operating performance. Management also believes that Adjusted EBITDA is an industry-wide financial measure that is useful both to management and investors when evaluating the Company's performance and comparing our performance with the performance of our competitors. Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, as well as to evaluate the Company's performance because it believes that Adjusted EBITDA more accurately reflects the Company's results, as it excludes certain items, such as stock-based compensation cha rges, that management believes are not indicative of the Company's operating performance.
The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure and not a liquidity measure, and a reconciliation between net loss from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the financial results. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to income (loss) from operations or net loss from continuing operations as an indicator of performance or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as an indicator of cash flows, in each case as determined in accordance with GAAP, or as a measure of liquidity. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account changes in certain assets and liabilities as well as interest and income taxes that can affect cash flows. Manage ment does not intend the presentation of these non-GAAP measures to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should be read only in conjunction with the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

  $38,249  $33,746  13%
Revenues increased $4.5 million or 13%.  The increase in revenues in the Phase I Deployment segment was due to an increased number of VPFs despite a decreased number of titles as release patterns continue to widen. The increase in revenues in the Phase II Deployment segment was due to the increased number of Phase 2 DC’s financed Systems installed and ready for content to 529 at September 30, 2010 from 160 at September 30, 2009.  The 51% increase in revenues in the Services segment was primarily due to (i) a 49% increase in DMS revenues, as DMS maintained its movie studio feature delivery customers and experienced growth in the number of digital delivery sites offset by a 23% decrease in non-theatrical satellite services revenues; (ii) Phase 2 DC service fees for additional Phase 2 DC Systems deployed through the Exhibitor-Buyer Structure as well as Cinedigm provided non-recourse financing; (iii) Phase 1 DC service fees earned; and (iv) a 10% increase in Software revenues related to increased Phase II Deployment license and maintenance fees offset by a m odest decrease in other software license and development fees.  
As of September 30, 2010 Cinedigm services,through its Phase 2 deployment subsidiary and 3rd party exhibitor-buyer customers, a total of 1,050 Phase 2 DC screens in comparison to 160 at September 30, 2009 and 619 at June 30, 2010. We expect digital cinema related service fees, DMS revenues and software license fees to increase as the delayed Phase 2 DC Systems are installed in the fiscal third and fourth quarters, as well as expected additional Systems are deployed under various non-recourse credit facility commitments and through the Exhibitor-Buyer Structure with 28 exhibitors as of September 30, 2010.
In the Content & Entertainment segment, USM’s in-theatre advertising revenues increased 11% and national advertising revenues generated by the partnership with Screenvision increased 28% offset by reduced inter-company barter revenues.  Both of these increases reflect improved overall advertising conditions and operating improvements undertaken within USM’s sales force.  CEG’s content distribution revenues increased 130% with the release of various live 3D events, as well as the ongoing KidToons series.  The primary driver of CEG revenues is the number of programs CEG is distributing, t ogether with the nationwide (and anticipated worldwide) conversion of theatres to digital capabilities, a trend the Company expects to continue. In addition to the distribution of independent motion pictures, the Company also expects that with its implementation of the CineLiveSM product into movie theatres, CEG’s revenues will increase from the distribution of live 2D and 3D content such as concerts and sporting events.

 
31


We expect consolidated revenues to increase during the remainder of our fiscal year relative to the previous fiscal year due to increased amounts of financing that are generally available to fund digital deployments, and the growing number of 3-D movies to be released by the motion picture studios.  In particular, the Company recently signed 457 screens with two exhibitors who are purchasing the equipment directly and have hired the Company to manage the asset base in exchange for an upfront activation fee and on-going share of VPF revenues.  In addition, the Company expects to sign definitive documentation for a $100 million non-recourse, senior credit facility with GE Capital and Soc Gen prior to year end and commence deployments under this facility in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.  As the number of industry wide digital screens increases generally, the Company expects to earn additional delivery fees in its DMS business unit as well as distribution fees in CEG and software fees from our TCC software.    We are dependent on the availability of suitable financing for any large scale Phase II Deployment.  To date such sources of financing are still being pursued.

The decrease was also related to reduced staffing levelsincrease in the Content & Entertainment segment offset bywas related to a planned increased professional feesstaffing levels within the sales force at USM. The increase within Corporate was due to one-time investor relations expenses and compensation consulting fees and scheduled quarterly directors’ fees. Followingtransition costs related to the completionretirement of our Phase I Deployment, overall headcount reductions have now stabilized.  AsCEO of $1.1 million, increased travel costs, a timing recognition shift related to accrued accounting and tax professional fees for fiscal 2011 and additional stock-based awards granted since September 30, 2008 and 2009 we had 252 and 244 employees, of which 40 and 47, were part-time employees and 39 and 43, were salespersons, respectively.  We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to decrease as compared to prior periods and remain relatively constant at the current level.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation expense increased approximately $0.2 million or 120%.  The increase was primarily relatedvest equally over a three year period in addition to the expenses associated with the stock option awards granted during the three months ended September 30, 2009, which were issued in exchange for the terminationaccelerated vesting and extension of the AccessDM options.  Such grants vested upon issuance and resultedexercise period for certain stock-based awards related to the retirement of the Company's CEO, resulting in an additional $0.3 million of stock-based compensation expense, foroffset by reduced investor relations related expenses.  During the quarter.six months, the Company took actions to reduce corporate overhead including the elimination of several corporate positions and a reduction in other discretionary spending. The annualized net savings from these actions total approximately $0.5 million and will impact our results beginning with first quarter in fiscal 2012.  As of September 30, 2010 and 2009 and excluding employees in our discontinued operations, we had 177 employees, of which 3 and 4 were part-time employees and 55 and 48 were salespersons, respectively.  Excluding any additional transition costs, we expect selling, general and administrative expenses to remain relatively consistent at the current level.

The decrease in the Content & Entertainment segment reflects reduced depreciation expense on assets which are fully depreciated or amortized at September 30, 2010.   We expect the depreciation and amortization expense in the Phase II Deployment and the Services segment to generally increase as new Phase 2 DC Systems and additional satellite systems are installed.

Non-cash interest expense was $1.2 million and $1.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The decrease in the non-cash interest related to the cessation of interest payments on the 2007 Senior Notes upon their cancellation in August 2009 offset by accretion of $1.1 million on the note payable discount associated with the 20092010 Note will continue over the term of the 20092010 Note.

As a result of the completion of our Phase I Deployment and the continued payments of principal related to the GE Credit Facility, partially offset by limited borrowings related to the Phase II Deployment, we expect our interest

expense to stabilize and remain relatively constant at the current level, as reduced interest from the 2007 Senior Notes will be replaced by increased interest on the 2009 Note.

Extinguishment of debt

The gain on the extinguishment of debt was $10.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, related to the satisfaction of the principal and any accrued and unpaid interest on the 2007 Senior Notes for an aggregate purchase price of $42.5 million which resulted in a gain of $12.5 million of remaining principal along with $0.6 million in unpaid accrued interest offset by unamortized debt issuance costs of $2.4 million.

Change in fair value of interest rate swap

The change in fair value of the interest rate swap was $0.6a loss of $1.4 million and a gain of $1.2 million f or the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The gain in 2009 for the three months ended September 30, 2009.  This represents Phase 1 DC’s unrealized gain from the change in the fair value of the Interest Rate Swap executed in April 2008swap agreement related to the GE Credit Facility.Facility, which was terminated on May 6, 2010 upon the completion of the Phase I Deployment refinancing.  It has been replaced by new swap agreements related to the 2010 Term Loans entered into on June 7, 2010 which will become effective on June 15, 2011 and resulted in a loss of $1.4 million.

Revenues decreased $3.9 million or 9%.  The decreaseCompany measures its financial success based upon growth in revenues and earnings before interest, depreciation, amortization, other income (expense), net, stock-based compensation and non-recurring items ("Adjusted EBITDA").  Further, the Company analyzes this measurement excluding the results of its Phase 1 DC and Phase 2 DC subsidiaries, and includes in this measurement intercompany service fees earned by its digital cinema servicing group from the Phase I Deployment segment was primarily due to an 11% decreaseand Phase II Deployments, which are eliminated in consolidation (see Note 9. Segment Information for further details). The Company's Adjusted EBITDA loss (excluding its Phase 1 DC’s VPF revenues, attributable to a contractual 16% reduction in VPF rates starting in November 2008, offset by an increase in quarterly screen turnover.   The increase in revenues in the Phase II Deployment segment was due toDC and Phase 2 DC VPF revenues which were not generated duringsubsidiaries) was $(648,000) for the six months ended September 30, 2008, as no Phase 2 DC’s Systems were installed and ready2010 compared to $(3.0) million for content until December 2008. The decrease in revenues in the Services segment was primarily due to (i) a 14% decrease in DMS revenues, attributable to flat revenues from digital feature and trailer deliveries as DMS maintained its movie studio customers but experienced limited growth insix months ended September 30, 2009. Based on the number of digital delivery sites and a 26% decrease in non-theatrical satellite services revenues due to general economic factors; and (ii) a 10% decrease in Software revenues due to delayed Phase 2 deployments, limiting expected license and maintenance fees. We expect Phase 2 DC service fees, DMS revenues and software license fees to increase as additional Systems are deployed under both the recent $100 million non-recourse credit facility committed to by GE Capital and Soc Gen as well as through the exhibitor-buyer model launched in late September 2009 initially with two exhibitors.

In the Content & Entertainment segment, revenues decreased 15% due to a 25% decline in in-theatre advertising revenues, attributable to the elimination of various under-performing customer contracts, as well as the current weak macro-economic environment, offset by 21% increase in national advertising revenues generated by the partnership with Screenvision and non-cash barter revenues of $0.5 million, which represents the fair value of advertising provided to alternative content providers of CEG.  CEG’s distribution revenues relating to digitally-equipped locations decreased 53%planned for alternative content and content sponsorship revenues as CEG planned a limited number of events and independent films during the six months ended September 30, 2009.  The CEG distribution slate will expand to be more significant in the second half of our 2010 fiscal year commencing in October 2009 with the

34


release of Opa! and the December 11, 2009 release of Dave Matthews Band in 3-D  The primary driver of CEG revenues is the number of programs CEG is distributing, together with the nationwide (and anticipated worldwide) conversion of theatres to digital capabilities, a trend the Company expects to continue. In addition to the distribution of independent motion pictures, the Company also expects that with its implementation of the CineLiveSM product into movie theatres, CEG’s revenues will increase from the distribution of live 2D and 3D content such as concerts and sporting events.

We expect consolidated revenues to increasedeployment during the remainder of ourthe fiscal year, relativethe Company expects Adjusted EBITDA performance to continue to improve for the previousremainder of the fiscal year, due to increased amounts of financing that are generally available to fund digital deployments,the intercompany service fees, software license and themaintenance fees and other revenues d erived from a growing number of 3-D movies to be released by the motion picture studios. In particular, the Company recently signed 457 screens with two exhibitors who are purchasing the equipment directly and have hired the Company to manage the asset base in exchange for an upfront activation fee and on-going share of VPF revenues.  In addition, the Company expects to sign definitive documentation for a $100 million non-recourse, senior credit facility with GE Capital and Soc Gen prior to year end and commence deployments under this facility in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.   As the number of industry wide digital screens increases generally, the Company expects to earn additional delivery fees in its DMS business unit as well as distribution fees in CEG and software fees from our TCC software.    We are dependent on the availability of suitable financing for any large scale Phase II Deployment.  To date such sources of financing are still being pursued.

  $12,529  $11,528   (8)%

Direct operating expenses decreased $1.0 million or 8%.  The increase in direct operating costs in the Phase I Deployment segment was primarily due to a 5% increase in Phase 1 DC’s costs, attributable to a 38% increase in property taxes on Systems.   The increase in direct operating costs in the Phase II Deployment segment was due to Phase 2 DC costs which were not generated during the six months ended September 30, 2008.  The decrease in the Content & Entertainment segment was primarily related to a 14% decrease in minimum guaranteed obligations under theatre advertising agreements with exhibitors for displaying cinema advertising, reduced operational staffing levels at USM and reduced advertising and marketing costs in CEG related to the fewer number of programs CEG distributed during the quarter offset by non-cashSystem installations nationwide, including content acquisition expenses of $0.5 million for CEG related to the fair value of barter advertising provided by USM.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation expense increased approximately $0.4 million or 114%.  The increase was primarily related to the expenses associated with the stock option awards granted during the three months ended September 30, 2009 which were issued in exchange for the termination of the AccessDM options.  Such grants vested upon issuance and resulted in an additional $0.3 million of expense for the quarter.

Total interest expense included $11.1 million and $14.4 million of interest paid and accrued for the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively.  The increase in interest paid and accrued within the Phase I Deployment segment relates to the increased interest rate on the GE Credit Facility related to the fourth amendment and in part to the Interest Rate Swap (see change in fair value of interest rate swap discussed below) and increased interest within the Phase II Deployment segment related to the KBC Related Facility to fund the purchase of Systems from Barco.

Non-cash interest expense was $3.0 million and $1.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively.  The increase was due to the accretion of the note payable discount associated with the 2009 Note.  Non-cash interest related to the interest payments on the 2007 Senior Notes has ceased as the 2007 Senior Notes were cancelled in August 2009.  Accretion of the note payable discount associated with the 2009 Note will continue over the term of the 2009 Note.

As a result of the completion of our Phase I Deployment and the continued payments of principal related to the GE Credit Facility, partially offset by limited borrowings related to the Phase II Deployment, we expect our interest expense to stabilize, as reduced interest from the 2007 Senior Notes will be replaced by increased interest on the 2009 Note.

Extinguishment of debt

The gain on the extinguishment of debt was $10.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2009, which resulted from the satisfaction of the principal and any accrued and unpaid interest on the 2007 Senior Notes for an aggregate purchase price of $42.5 million which resulted in a gain of $12.5 million of remaining principal along with $0.6 million in unpaid accrued interest offset by unamortized debt issuance costs of $2.4 million.

Change in fair value of interest rate swap

The change in fair value of the interest rate swap was $1.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2009.  This represents Phase 1 DC’s unrealized gain from the change in the fair value of the Interest Rate Swap executed in April 2008 related to the GE Credit Facility.

Change in fair value of warrants

The change in fair value of warrants issued to Sageview, related to the 2009 Note, was a loss of $3.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2009.  At September 30, 2009, the fair value of the warrant liability was $14.3 million.  Until the shares underlying these warrants are registered with the SEC, the Company will continue to adjust the warrant liability each quarter to the then fair value.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective July 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) became the single official source of authoritative, nongovernmentalfinancial performance under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a financial metric to measure the financial performance of the business because management be lieves it provides additional information with respect to the performance of its fundamental business activities. For this reason, the Company believes Adjusted EBITDA will also be useful to others, including its stockholders, as valuable financial metrics.
Management presents Adjusted EBITDA because it believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplement to net loss from continuing operations as an indicator of operating performance. Management also believes that Adjusted EBITDA is an industry-wide financial measure that is useful both to management and investors when evaluating the Company's performance and comparing our performance with the performance of our competitors. Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, as well as to evaluate the Company's p erformance because it believes that Adjusted EBITDA more accurately reflects the Company's results, as it excludes certain items, such as stock-based compensation charges, that management believes are not indicative of the Company's operating performance.
The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure and not a liquidity measure, and a reconciliation between net loss from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the United States.  The historicalfinancial results. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to income (loss) from operations or net loss from continuing operations as an indicator of performance or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as an indicator of cash flows, in each case as determined in accordance with GAAP, hierarchy was eliminatedor as a measure of liquidity. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account changes in certain assets and liabilities as well as interest and income taxes that can affect cash flows. Management does not intend the ASC becamepresentation of these non-GAAP measures to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should be read only in conjunction with the only level of authoritative GAAP, other than guidance issued by the SEC.  Our accounting policies were not affected by the conversion to ASC.  However, references to specific accounting standards in the footnotes to ourCompany's condensed consolidated financial statements have been changed to refer toprepared in accordance with GAAP.
Following is the appropriate section of ASC.

At its September 23, 2009 board meeting, the FASB ratified final EITF consensus on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables (“Issue 08-1”).  This Issue supersedes Issue 00-21 (codified in ASC 605-25).  Issue 08-1 addresses the unit of accounting for arrangements involving multiple deliverables.  It also addresses how arrangement consideration should be allocated to the separate units of accounting, when applicable. However, guidance on determining when the criteria for revenue recognition are met and on how an entity should recognize revenue for a given unit of accounting are located in other sectionsreconciliation of the Codification.  Issue 08-1 will ultimately be issued as anCompany's consolidated Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated GAAP net loss from continuing operations:

At its September 23, 2009 board meeting, the FASB also ratified final EITF consensus on software revenue recognition (“Issue 09-3”).  This Issue amends ASC 985-605 (formerly SOP 97-2) and ASC 985-605-15-3 (formerly Issue 03-5) to exclude from their scope all tangible products containing both software and non-software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality. That is, the entire product (including the software deliverables and non-software deliverables) would be outside the scope of ASC 985-605 and would be accounted for under other accounting literature. The revised scope of ASC 985-605 (Issue 09-3) will ultimately be issued as an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) that will amend the ASC.  The final consensus is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Entities can elect to apply this Issue (1) prospectively to new or materially modified arrangements after the Issue’s effective date or (2) retrospectively for all periods presented.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements (“ASU 2009-13”), which requires an entity to allocate consid eration at the inception of an arrangement to all of its deliverables based on their relative selling prices. This consensus eliminates the use of the residual method of allocation and requires allocation using the relative-selling-price method in all circumstances in which an entity recognizes revenue for an arrangement with multiple deliverables.

The Company does not expect the impactadoption of adoption and application of revisionsASU 2009-13 to ASC 810-10 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-14, “Software (Topic 985): Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” (“ASU 2009-14”).  ASU 2009-14 amends ASC 985-605, “Software: Revenue Recognition,” such that tangible products, containing both software and non-software components that function together to deliver the tangible product’s essential functionality, are no longer within the scope of ASC 985-605. It also amends the determination of how arrangement consideration should be allocated to deliverables in a multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement. ASU 2009-14 will become effective for the Company for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified on or after April 1, 2011. Earlier application is permitted with required transition disclosures based on the period of adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2009-14 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU 2010-06”). ASU 2010-06 requires some new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurements codified within ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The Company has adopted the requirements for disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value.  Additionally, these amended standards require presentation of disaggregated activity within the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, which will be effective for the Company as of April 1, 2011.  The Company does not expect the additional disclosure requirements will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In March 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-11, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives (“ASU 2010-11”). ASU 2010-11 clarifies the scope exception for embedded credit derivative features related to the transfer of credit risk in the form of subordination of one financial instrument to another. The amendments address how to determine which embedded credit derivative features, including those in c ollateralized debt obligations and synthetic collateralized debt obligations, are considered to be embedded derivatives that should not be analyzed for potential bifurcation and separate accounting.  The amendments in this pronouncement are effective for each reporting entity at the beginning of its first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2010.  This is effective for the Company as of April 1, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-11 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Accounting for Certain Tax Effects of the 2010 Health Care Reform A cts (“ASU 2010-12”). ASU 2010-12 establishes criteria for measuring the impact on deferred tax assets and liabilities based on provisions of enacted law, the impact of both Acts, the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 and the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, should be considered. ASU 2010-12 requires that income tax deductions for the cost of providing prescription drug coverage will be reduced by the amount of any subsidy received. The Company has evaluated ASU 2010-12 and its adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-17, Revenue Recognition — Milestone Method (“ASU 2010-17”). ASU 2010-17 establishes criteria for a milestone to be considered substantive and allows revenue recognition when the milestone is achieved in research or development arrangements. In addition, it requires disclosure of certain information with respect to arrangements that contain milestones. ASU 2010-17 is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010.  ASU 2010-17 is effective for the Company prospectively beginning April 1, 2011.  The Company has evaluated ASU 2010-17 and does not expect its adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310) - Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses (“ASU 2010-20”).  ASU 2010-20 enhances disclosures about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2010-20 on its conso lidated financial statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have incurred operating losses in each year since we commenced our operations. Since our inception, we have financed our operations substantially through the private placement of shares of our common and preferred stock, the issuance of promissory notes, our initial public offering and subsequent private and public offerings, notes payable and common stock used to fund various acquisitions.

Our business is primarily driven by the emerging digital cinema marketplace and the primary revenue driver will be the increasing number of digitally equipped screens. There are approximately 38,00039,000 domestic (United States and Canada) movie theatre screens and approximately 107,000 screens worldwide.  Approximately 6,50013,000 of the domestic screens are equipped with digital cinema technology, and 3,8844,774 of those screens contain our Systems and software. We anticipate the vast majority of the industry’s screens to be converted to digital in the next 5-73-5 years, and we have announced plans to convert up to an additional 10,000 domestic screens to digital in our PhasePha se II Deployment over a threefour year period starting October 2008, of which 1601,050 Systems have been installed as of September 30, 2009.2010. For those screens that are deployed by us, the primary revenue source will be VPFs, with the number of digital movies shown per screen, per year being the key factor for earnings, and measuring the VPFs, since the studios pay such fees on a per movie, per screen basis.basis as well as service fees earned for overseeing the digital cinema deployments.  For all new digital screens, whether or not deployed by us, the opportunity for other forms of revenue also increases. We may generate additional software license fee revenues (mainly from the TCC software which is used by exhibitors to aid in the operationopera tion of their systems), ACFs (such as concerts and sporting events) and fees from the delivery of content via satellite or hard drive.  In all cases, the number of digitally-equipped screens in the marketplace is the primary determinant of our potential revenue streams, although the emerging presence of competitors for software and content distribution and delivery may limit this opportunity.

In August 2006, Phase 1 DC entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with GECC, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the lenders party thereto, and one or more lenders party thereto.  Further borrowings are not permitted under the GE Credit Facility.  The Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants that restrict Phase 1 DC and its subsidiaries from making certain capital expenditures, incurring other indebtedness, engaging in a new line of business, selling certain assets, acquiring, consolidating with, or merging with or into other companies and entering into transactions with affiliates.  The GE Credit Facility is not guaranteed by the Company or its other subsidiaries, other than Phase 1 DC.  As of September 30, 2009, the outstanding principal balance of the GE Credit Facility was $167.0 million at a weighted average interest rate of 10.7%.

In August 2007, Phase 1 DC received $9.6 million of vendor financing (the “Vendor Note”) for equipment used in Phase 1 DC’s deployment. The Vendor Note bears interest at 11% and may be prepaid without penalty.  Interest is due semi-annually commencing February 2008 and is paid by Cinedigm.  The balance of the Vendor Note, together with all unpaid interest is due on the maturity date of August 1, 2016.  The Vendor Note is not guaranteed by the Company or its other subsidiaries, other than Phase 1 DC.  As of September 30, 2009, the outstanding principal balance of the Vendor Note was $9.6 million.

In April 2008, Phase 1 DC executed the Interest Rate Swap with a counterparty for a notional amount of approximately 90% of the amounts outstanding under the GE Credit Facility or an initial amount of $180.0 million. Under the Interest Rate Swap, Phase 1 DC will effectively pay a fixed rate of 7.3%, to guard against Phase 1 DC’s exposure to increases in the variable interest rate under the GE Credit Facility. GE Corporate Financial Services arranged the transaction, which took effect commencing August 1, 2008 as required by the GE Credit Facility and will remain in effect until August 2010.  As principal repayments of the GE Credit Facility occur, the notional

amount will decrease by a pro rata amount, such that approximately 90% of the remaining principal amount will be covered by the Interest Rate Swap at any time.

In May 2009, Phase 1 DC entered into the fourth amendment (the “GE Fourth Amendment”) with respect to the GE Credit Facility to (1) increase the interest rate from 4.5% to 6% above the Eurodollar Base Rate; (2) set the Eurodollar Base Rate floor at 2.5%; (3) reduce the required amount to be reserved for the payment of interest from nine months of forward cash interest to a fixed $6.9 million, and permitted a one-time payment of $2.6 million to be made from Phase 1 DC to its parent Company, AccessDM; (4) increase the quarterly maximum consolidated leverage ratio covenants that Phase 1 DC is required to meet on a trailing 12 months basis; (5) increase the maximum consolidated senior leverage ratio covenants that Phase 1 DC is required to meet on a trailing 12 months basis; (6) reduce the quarterly minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio covenants that Phase 1 DC is required to meet on a trailing 12 months basis and (7) add a covenant requiring Phase 1 DC to maintain a minimum unrestricted cash balance of $2.0 million at all times.  All of the changes contained in the GE Fourth Amendment are effective as of May 4, 2009 except for the covenant changes in (4), (5) and (6) above, which were effective as of March 31, 2009.  In connection with the GE Fourth Amendment, Phase 1 DC paid fees to GE and the other lenders totaling $1.0 million.  At September 30, 2009 the Company was in compliance with all covenants contained in the GE Credit Facility, as amended and noted above.

In December 2008,2010, Phase 2 B/AIX, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into the KBC Related Facilityadditional credit facilities (the “KBC Facilities”) to fund the purchase of Systems from Barco, to be installed in movie theatres as part of the Company’s Phase II Deployment.  As of September 30, 2009, $8.9 million2010, has been drawn down $13.9 millionon the KBC Related FacilityFacilities and the outstanding principal balance of the KBC Related FacilityFacilities was $8.9 million.$13.0 million.

In August 2009, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an affiliate of Sageview Capital LP (the “Purchaser”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue a Senior Secured Note (the “2009 Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million and warrants (the “Sageview Warrants”) to purchase 16,000,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock (the “2009 Private Placement”).  The net proceeds of the 2009 Private Placement of approximately $63.7 million will be used for the repayment of existing indebtedness of the Company and one of its subsidiaries, the funding of a cash reserve to pay the cash interest amount required under the 2009 Note for the first two years, the payment of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Private Placement and related transactions, and other general corporate purposes.  The 2009 Note has a term of five years, which may be extended for up to one 12 month period at the discretion of the Company if certain conditions set forth in the 2009 Note are satisfied.  Subject to certain adjustments set forth in the 2009 Note, interest on the 2009 Note is 8% per annum to be accrued as an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the 2009 Note (“PIK Interest”) and 7% per annum paid in cash.  The Company may prepay the 2009 Note (i) during the initial 18 months of their term, in an amount up to 20% of the original principal amount of the 2009 Note plus accrued and unpaid interest without penalty and (ii) following the second anniversary of issuance of the 2009 Note, subject to a prepayment penalty equal to 7.5% of the principal amount prepaid if the 2009 Note is prepaid prior to the three year anniversary of its issuance, a prepayment penalty of 3.75% of the principal amount prepaid if the 2009 Note is prepaid after such third anniversary but prior to the fourth anniversary of its issuance and without penalty if the 2009 Note is prepaid thereafter, plus cash in an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid interest amount with respect to the principal amount through and including the prepayment date.  The Company is obligated to offer to redeem all or a portion of the 2009 Note upon the occurrence of certain triggering events described in the 2009 Note.  Subject to limited exceptions, the Purchaser may not assign the 2009 Note until the earliest of (a) August 11, 2011, (b) the consummation of a change in control as defined in the 2009 Note or (c) an event of default as defined in the 2009 Note.  The Purchase Agreement also requires the 2009 Note to be guaranteed by each of the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries, other than AccessDM, Phase 1 DC and its subsidiaries and Phase 2 DC and its subsidiaries and subsidiaries formed after August 11, 2009 which are primarily engaged in the financing or deployment of digital cinema equipment (the "Guarantors"), and that the Company and each Guarantor pledge substantially all of their assets to secure payment on the 2009 Note, except that AccessDM and Phase 1 DC are not required to become Guarantors until such time as certain indebtedness is paid off.  Accordingly, the Company and each of the Guarantors entered into a guarantee and collateral agreement (the “Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”) pursuant to which each Guarantor guaranteed the obligations of the Company under the 2009 Note and the Company and each Guarantor pledged substantially all of their assets to secure such obligations.  The Company agreed to register the resale of the shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Sageview Warrants (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).  The Purchase Agreement, Note Purchase Agreement, 2009 Note, Warrants, Registration Rights Agreement and Guarantee and Collateral Agreement contain representations, warranties, covenants and events of default as are customary for transactions of this type and nature.  As of September 30, 2009, the net balance of the 2009 Note was $65.4 million.2010

In August 2009, in connection with the 2009 Private Placement, Phase 1 DC entered into a fifth amendment  (the “GE Fifth Amendment”) with respect to the GE Credit Facility, whereby $5.0 million of the proceeds of the 2009 Private Placement were used by the Company to purchase capital stock of AccessDM, which in turn used such amount to purchase capital stock of Phase 1 DC, which in turn used such amount to fund a prepayment with respect to the GE Credit Facility, with such prepayment being applied ratably to each of the next 24 successive regularly scheduled monthly amortization payments due under the GE Credit Facility beginning in August 2009.

As of September 30, 2009,, we had cash and cash equivalents of $19.7 million and ourpositive working capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities, was $5.9 million.of $5.8 million and cash and cash equivalents, restricted available-for-sale investments and restricted cash totaling $26.5 million.

Operating activities provided net cash of $15.2$10.9 million and $6.8$6.8 million for or the six months ended September 30, 20082010 and 2009, respectively.  The decreaseincrease in cash provided by operating activities compared to the prior year was primarily due to increased amounts of non-cash expenses and increased accounts payable and accrued expenses offset by decreased collections of outstanding accounts receivable, increased payments for accounts payable and accrued expenses and an increase in unbilled revenue coupled with greater amounts of non-cash expenses, specifically the gain from extinguishment of debt, offset by a decreased net loss and decreased deferred revenues.receivable.  We expect operating activities to continue to be a positive source of cash.

Investing activities used net cash of $16.5$6.0 million and $30.5$30.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 20082010 and 2009, respectively.

The Company expects futureto deploy Systems in our Phase II screen deployments to vary fromDeployment using a combination of Cinedigm-financed screens and the structure it hasExhibitor-Buyer Structure.  The method used to deploy systems will vary depending on the exhibitors’ preference and both the exhibitors’ and Cinedigm’s ability to finance Phase II systems to date.  One such structure will entail the exhibitor purchasing the equipment, incurring any debt necessary, and using the Company as an administrative agent to bill VPFs and oversee the assets, in exchange for a fee, expressed as a percentageSystems.  The number of VPFs and other revenues.Systems ultimately deployed by each method cannot be predicted at this time.

(6)    Includes $34.8 million for an additional 451 Phase II Systems under purchase orders with Barco.  This is expected to be funded through non-recourse KBC Facilities.

We expect to continue to generate net losses for the foreseeable future primarily due to depreciation and amortization, interest on funds advanced under the GE Credit Facility,2010 Term Loans, interest on the 20092010 Note, software development, marketing and promotional activities and the development of relationships with other businesses. Certain of these costs, including costs of software development and marketing and promotional activities, could be reduced if necessary. The restrictions imposed by the 20092010 Note and the 2010 Credit Agreement may limit our ability to obtain financing, make it more difficult to satisfy our debt obligations or require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow to payments on our existing debt obligations, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures and other corporate requirements.  We are seeking to raise

40


additional capital for equipment requirements related to our Phase II Deployment or for working capital as necessary. Although we recently entered into certain agreements with studio and exhibitors related to the Phase II Deployment, there is no assurance that financing of additional Systems for the Phase II Deployment will be completed as contemplated or under terms acceptable to us or our existing stockholders. Failure to generate additional revenues, raise additional capital or manage discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on our ability to continue as a going concern and to achieve our intended business objectives. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments which may result from our inability to continue as a going concern.

Seasonality

Revenues derived from our Pavilion Theatre in our Other segment and our Phase I Deployment and Phase II Deployment segment revenues derived from the collection of VPFs from motion picture studios are seasonal, coinciding with the timing of releases of movies by the motion picture studios. Generally, motion picture studios release the most marketable movies during the summer and the holiday season. The unexpected emergence of a hit movie during other periods can alter the traditional trend. The timing of movie releases can have a significant effect on our results of operations, and the results of one quarter are not necessarily indicative of results for the next quarter or any other quarter. We believe the seasonality of motion picture exhibition, however, is becoming less pronounced as the motion picture studios are releasing movies somewhat more evenly throughout the year.

Related Party Transactions

In August 2009, the Company hired Adam M. Mizel to be its Chief Financial Officer and Chief Strategy Officer.  Mr. Mizel has been a member of the Company’s Board of Directors since March 2009 and is currently the Managing Principal of Aquifer Capital Group, LLC and the General Partner of the Aquifer Opportunity Fund, L.P., currently the Company’s largest shareholder.

Subsequent Events

We haveThe Company has evaluated events and transactions that occurred between September 30, 2009 and November 13, 2009, which is the date the financial statements were issued, for possible disclosure or recognition in the financial statements.  We haveThe Company has determined that there were no such events or transactions that warrant disclosure or recognition in the financial statements except as noted below.

In October 2009, in connection withNovember 2010, the Company’s Phase II Deployment,Company, through its non-recourse Phase 2 DC hassubsidiary, received commitment letters from GE CapitalSociété Générale and Soc GenNatixis for a senior credit facilitiesfacility totaling $75 million with flexibility to expand up to $100 million.  The Company anticipates the closing of this new loan facility, together with support$86 million through syndication, and from digital cinema equipment vendors Christie Digital Systems USA, Inc. and Barco by December 31, 2009 with installations targeted to commence in early 2010.  GE Capital’s commitment covers the financing ofMacquarie Equipment Finance, LLC (“Macquarie”) for up to about 1,600 Systems and Soc Gen’s commitment covers$23 million of junior capital. Closing is targeted for t he end of the financing ofthird quarter with deployments commencing in this year's fiscal fourth quarter. This Phase 2 facility will deploy up to an additional 533 Systems.1,800 - 2,100 Systems, with projectors being provided exclusively by Barco and NEC Display Solutions of America ("NEC"). These new commitment letters address both senior and junior capital requirements of a non-recourse borrowing facility which Cinedigm can offer to exhibitors to provide a complete financing solution.

In October 2009, in connection with the Company’s Phase II Deployment, Phase 2 DC entered into digital cinema deployment agreements with two additional motion picture studios for the distribution of digital movie releases to motion picture exhibitors equipped with Systems, and providing for payment of VPFs to Phase 2 DC.  Phase 2 DC now has digital cinema deployment agreements with eight motion picture studios.

In October 2009, the Company’s name change from Access Integrated Technologies, Inc., to Cinedigm Digital Cinema Corp. and the increase in the number of shares Class A Common Stock authorized for issuance from 65,0000,000 to 75,000,000 shares became effective.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We are not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements, other than operating leases in the ordinary course of business, which is disclosed above in the table of our significant contractual obligations.

Impact of Inflation

The impact of inflation on our operations has not been significant to date.  However, there can be no assurance that a high rate of inflation in the future would not have an adverse impact on our operating results.

Item 4T.4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the periodperi od covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act and are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Our subsidiary, ADM Cinema, was named as a defendant in an action filed on May 19, 2008 in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Kings by Pavilion on the Park, LLC (“Landlord”).  Landlord is the owner of the premises located at 188 Prospect Park West, Brooklyn, New York, known as the Pavilion Theatre.  Pursuant to the relevant lease, ADM Cinema leases the Pavilion Theatre from Landlord and operates it as a movie theatre.None.

In the complaint, Landlord alleges that ADM Cinema violated its obligations under Article 12 of the lease in that ADM Cinema failed to comply with an Order of the Fire Department of the City of New York issued on September 24, 2007 calling for the installation of a sprinkler system in the Pavilion Theatre and that such violation constitutes an event of default under the lease.  Landlord seeks to terminate the lease and evict ADM Cinema from the premises and to recover its attorneys’ fees and damages for ADM Cinema’s alleged “holding over” by remaining on the premises. In July 2009, we entered into an agreement with Landlord to settle this matter where we would be responsible for 25% of the cost and expenses related to the installation of a sprinkler system.  As an additional condition of this agreement, any option to renew or extend this lease has been eliminated.  This lease ends on July 31, 2022.

ITEM 1A.   RISK FACTORS

The information regarding certain factors which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results set forth under Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K, should be carefully reviewed and considered. There have been no material changes from the factors disclosed in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, except as set forth below, although we may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.

The acquisition restrictions contained in our certificate of incorporation and our Tax Benefit Preservation Plan, which are intended to help preserve our net operating losses, may not be effective or may have unintended negative effects.

We have experienced, and may continue to experience, substantial operating losses, and under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Section 382"), and rules promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service, we may "carry forward" these net operating losses (“NOLs”) in certain circumstances to offset any current and future earnings and thus reduce our federal income tax liability, subject to certain requirements and restrictions.  To the extent that the NOLs do not otherwise become limited, we believe that we will be able to carry forward a significant amount of the NOLs, and therefore these NOLs could be a substantial asset to us.  If, however, we experience a Section 382 ownership change, our ability to use the NOLs will be substantially limited, and the

 
43


timing of the usage of the NOLs could be substantially delayed, which could therefore significantly impair the value of that asset. 

To reduce the likelihood of an ownership change, we have established acquisition restrictions in our certificate of incorporation and our board of directors (the "Board") adopted a tax benefit preservation plan (the "Tax Benefit Preservation Plan"). The Tax Benefit Preservation Plan is designed to protect shareholder value by attempting to protect against a limitation on our ability to use our existing NOLs. The acquisition restrictions in our certificate of incorporation are also intended to restrict certain acquisitions of our common stock to help preserve our ability to utilize our NOLs by avoiding the limitations imposed by Section 382 and the related Treasury regulations. The acquisition restrictions and the Tax Benefit Preservation Plan are generally designed to restrict or deter direct and indirect acquisitions of our common stock if such acquisition would result in a shareholder becoming a “5-percent shareholder” (as defined by Section 382 and the related Treasury regulations) or increase the percentage ownership of Cinedigm stock that is treated as owned by an existing 5-percent shareholder.

Although the acquisition restrictions and the Tax Benefit Preservation Plan are intended to reduce the likelihood of an ownership change that could adversely affect us, we can give no assurance that such restrictions would prevent all transfers that could result in such an ownership change. In particular, we have been advised by our counsel that, absent a court determination, there can be no assurance that the acquisition restrictions will be enforceable against all of our shareholders, and that they may be subject to challenge on equitable grounds. In particular, it is possible that the acquisition restrictions may not be enforceable against the shareholders who voted against or abstained from voting on the restrictions at our 2009 annual meeting of stockholders.

Under certain circumstances, our Board may determine it is in the best interest of the Company to exempt certain 5-percent shareholders from the operation of the acquisition restrictions or the Tax Benefit Preservation Plan, if a proposed transaction is determined not to be detrimental to the Company’s utilization of its NOLs.

The acquisition restrictions and Tax Benefit Preservation Plan also require any person attempting to become a holder of 5% or more of our common stock, as determined under Section 382, to seek the approval of our Board. This may have an unintended “anti-takeover” effect because our Board may be able to prevent any future takeover. Similarly, any limits on the amount of stock that a stockholder may own could have the effect of making it more difficult for stockholders to replace current management. Additionally, because the acquisition restrictions and the Tax Benefit Preservation Plan have the effect of restricting a stockholder’s ability to dispose of or acquire our common stock, the liquidity and market value of our Class A Common Stock might suffer. The Tax Benefit Preservation Plan will remain in effect until the earlier of (a) August 10, 2012, or (b) such other date as our Board in good faith determines it is no longer in the best interests of Cinedigm and its stockholders. The acquisition restrictions may be waived by our Board. Stockholders are advised to monitor carefully their ownership of our common stock and consult their own legal advisors and/or Cinedigm to determine whether their ownership of our common stock approaches the proscribed level.

The occurrence of various events may adversely affect the ability of the Company to fully utilize NOLs.

The Company has a substantial amount of NOLs for U.S. federal income tax purposes that are available both currently and in the future to offset taxable income and gains. Events outside of our control may cause us to experience a Section 382 ownership change, and limit our ability to fully utilize such NOLs.

In general, an ownership change occurs when, as of any testing date, the percentage of stock of a corporation owned by one or more “5-percent shareholders,” as defined in the Section 382 and the related Treasury regulations, has increased by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage of stock of the corporation owned by such shareholders at any time during the three-year period preceding such date. In general, persons who own 5% or more of a corporation’s stock are 5-percent shareholders, and all other persons who own less than 5% of a corporation’s stock are treated, together, as a single, public group 5-percent shareholder, regardless of whether they own an aggregate of 5% or more of a corporation’s stock. If a corporation experiences an ownership change, it is generally subject to an annual limitation, which limits its ability to use its NOLs to an amount equal to the equity value of the corporation multiplied by the federal long-term tax-exempt rate.

If we were to experience an ownership change, we could potentially have, in the future, higher U.S. federal income tax liabilities than we would otherwise have had and it may also result in certain other adverse consequences to us. Therefore, we have adopted the Tax Benefit Preservation Plan and the acquisition restrictions set forth in Article Fourth of our certificate of incorporation in order to reduce the likelihood that we will experience an

44


ownership change under Section 382. There can be no assurance, however, that these efforts will deter or prevent the occurrence of an ownership change and the adverse consequences that may arise therefrom, as described above under “The acquisition restrictions contained in our certificate of incorporation and our Tax Benefit Preservation Plan, which are intended to help preserve our net operating losses, may not be effective or may have unintended negative effects.”
