1.NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Access Integrated Technologies, Inc. d/b/a Cinedigm Digital Cinema Corp. was incorporated in Delaware on March 31, 2000 and began doing business as Cinedigm Digital Cinema Corp. on November 25, 2008 (“Cinedigm”, and collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”).  On September 30, 2009, the Company’s stockholders approved a change in the Company’s name from Access Integrated Technologies, Inc., to Cinedigm Digital Cinema Corp. and such change was effected October 5, 2009.  The Company provides technology solutions, financial services and advice, software services, electronic delivery and content distribution services to owners and distributors of digital content to movie theatres and other venues.  Beginning September 1, 2009, the Company made changes to its organizational structure which impacted its reportable segments, but did not impact its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company has three segments, mediarealigned its focus to five primary businesses as follows: the first digital cinema deployment (“Phase I Deployment”), the second digital cinema deployment (“Phase II Deployment”), services (“Media Services”), media content and entertainment (“Content & Entertainment”) and other (“Other”).  The Company’s MediaPhase 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,services and support to the Phase I Deployment and Phase II Deployment segments as well as 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, digitallicense, maintenance and consulting services; and electronic content electronic delivery services via satellite and hard drive to the motion picture and television industries,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 ana 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 distribution services to alternative and theatrical content owners and to theatrical exhibitors and in-theatre advertising andadvertising.  The Company’s Other segment provides motion picture exhibition to the general public.  The Company’s Other segment providespublic, information technology consulting and managed network monitoring services and hosting services and network access for other web hosting services (“Access Digital Server Assets”).  Overall, the Company’s goal is to aid in the transformation of movie theatres to entertainment centers by providing a platform of hardware, software and content choices.

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 $145,256$146,474 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2009. The Company also has significant contractual obligations related to its recourse and non-recourse debt for the remaining part of fiscal year 2010 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 JuneSeptember 30, 2009, and expected cash flows from operations, management believes that the Company has the ability to meet its obligations through JuneSeptember 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.  The Company is seeking to raisehas signed commitment letters for additional non-recourse debt capital, to refinance certain outstanding debt,primarily to meet equipment requirements related to the Company’s second digital cinema deployment (the “PhasePhase II Deployment”) and for working capital as necessary.Deployment (see Note 11). Although the Company recently entered into certain agreements related to the Phase II Deployment (see Note 7), 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. Failure to generate additional revenues, raise additional capital or manage discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments which may result from the Company’s inability to continue as a going concern.

On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to the carrying values of its long-lived assets, intangible assets and goodwill, the valuation of deferred tax assets, the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in purchase business combinations, stock-based compensation expense, revenue recognition and capitalization of software development costs. 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.

The results of operations for the respective interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Media ServicesPhase I Deployment and Phase II Deployment

Media Services revenues are generated as follows:

Revenues consist of:Accounted for in accordance with:
Virtual print fees (“VPFs”) and alternative content fees (“ACFs”).Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104 “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB No. 104”).
Software multi-element licensing arrangements, software maintenance contracts, and professional consulting services, which includes systems implementation, training, and other professional services, delivery revenues via satellite and hard drive, data encryption and preparation fee revenues, satellite network monitoring and maintenance fees.Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition”
Custom software development services.SOP 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts” (“SOP 81-1”)
Customer licenses and application service provider (“ASP Service”) agreements.SAB No. 104

VPFs are earned pursuant to contracts with movie studios and distributors, whereby amounts are payable to AccessITPhase 1 DC and to Phase 2 DC, when movies distributed by the studio are displayed on screens utilizing the Company’s digital cinema equipment (the “Systems”) installed in movie theatres.  VPFs are earned and payable to AccessITPhase 1 DC based on a defined fee schedule with a reduced VPF rate year over year until the sixth year where(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 on 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 that digitally-equipped movie theatre, as AccessITPhase 1 DC’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 fixeddefined fee schedule, for 10 years from the date each system is installed,installed; however, Phase 2 DC may no longer collect VPFs once “cost recoupment”,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
6

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 8theighth contract year, a one-time “cost recoupment bonus” is payable by the studios to Phase 2 DC.Cinedigm.  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.


6
ACFs

Alternative content fees (“ACFs”) are earned pursuant to contracts with movie exhibitors, whereby amounts are payable to AccessITPhase 1 DC 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 opens for audience viewing.

Services

For software multi-element licensing arrangements that do not require significant production, modification or customization of the licensed software, revenue is recognized for the various elements as follows: Revenuerevenue 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).

Revenues relating to customized software development contracts are recognized on a percentage-of-completion method of accounting in accordance with SOP 81-1.

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, (2) uncompleted implementation of application service provider arrangements (“ASP Service arrangements,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.

Managed Services’ revenues, which consistRevenues from the delivery of monthly recurring billings pursuant to network monitoringdata via satellite and maintenance contracts,hard drive are recognized upon delivery, as revenues in the month earned, and other non-recurring billings are recognized on a time and materials basis as revenues in the period in which the services were provided.DMS’ performance obligations have been substantially met at that time.

Content & Entertainment

Content & Entertainment revenues are generated as follows:

Revenues consist of:Accounted for in accordance with:
Movie theatre admission and concession revenues.SAB No. 104
Cinema advertising service revenues and distribution fee revenues.SOP 00-2, “Accounting by Producers or Distributors of Films” (“SOP 00-2”)
Cinema advertising barter revenuesThe Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 99-17, “Accounting for Advertising Barter Transactions” (“EITF 99-17”)

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 purchase.

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
7

execution, and all related advertising revenue and all direct costs actually incurred are deferred until such time as the aan 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 either fixed annual payments or annual minimum guarantee payments, plus a revenue share of the excess of a percentage 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.  There may be a timing difference between the screening of alternative content and the screening of the underlying advertising used to acquire the content.  In accordance with EITF 99-17, theThe acquisition cost is being recorded and recognized as a direct operating expense 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.  The Company has not recorded any net revenues or direct operating expenses related to barter advertising during the three and six months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2009.

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, and 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, were generatedwhich consist of monthly recurring billings for hosting and network access fees, are recognized as follows:

Revenues consist of:Accounted for in accordance with:
Hosting and network access fees.SAB No. 104
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.

RESTRICTED INVESTMENT SECURITIES

In connection with the $75,000 Senior Secured Note issued in August 2009 (see Note 5), the Company was required to segregate $11,265 of the proceeds into marketable securities which will be used to repay interest over the next two years.  The Company classifies the marketable securities as available-for-sale securities and accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value.  The maturity dates of these investments coincide with the quarterly interest payment dates through September 2011.  The changes in the value of these securities are recorded in other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated financial statements.  Realized gains and losses are recorded in earnings when securities mature or are redeemed.  There were realized losses of $2 recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2009.

The Company held no available-for-sale securities at March 31, 2009.  During the three months ended September 30, 2009, the Company made the first scheduled quarterly interest payment in the amount of $715.  Investment securities with a maturity of twelve months or less are classified as short-term; those that mature in greater than twelve months are classified as long-term.  The carrying value and fair value of investment securities available-for-sale at September 30, 2009 were as follows:

DEFERRED COSTS

Deferred costs primarily consist of the unamortized debt issuance costs related to the credit facility with General Electric Capital Corporation (“GECC”) and, the $55,000 of 10% Senior Notes issued in August 2007 up to August 2009 (see Note 5) and the $75,000 Senior Secured Note issued in August 2009 (see Note 5), which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective debt.debt (see Note 5 for extinguishment of debt).  The straight-line basis is not materially different from the effective interest method.  Also included in deferred costs is advertising production, post production and technical support costs related to developing and displaying advertising in the amount of $778, which are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the same period as the related cinema advertising revenues of $4,704 are recognized.

DIRECT OPERATING COSTS

Direct operating costs consist of facility operating costs such as rent, utilities, real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, insurance and other related expenses, direct personnel costs, film rent expense, amortization of capitalized software development costs, exhibitors payments for displaying cinema advertising and other deferred expenses, such as advertising production, post production and technical support related to developing and displaying advertising. These other deferred expenses are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the same period as the related cinema advertising revenues are recognized.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

For the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2009, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $158$200 and $325,$441, respectively, and $358 and $766, for the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively.  The Company estimates that the stock-based compensation expense related to current outstanding stock options, using a Black-Scholes option valuation model, and current outstanding restricted stock awards will be approximately $1,300$1,432 in fiscal 2010.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and September 30, 2009 was $2.41. There were no options granted during$0.55 and $0.57, respectively, and $0.58 and $0.57, for the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009.2008 and 2009, respectively. There were no stock options exercised during the three and six months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 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:

 
For the Three Months
Ended June 30,
  For the Three Months Ended September 30,  For the Six Months Ended
September 30,
 
Assumptions for Option Grants 2008  2009 
         2008        2009          2008          2009 
Range of risk-free interest rates  2.7-4.4%     2.7-4.4%         2.7%         2.5-5.2%         2.7%
Dividend yield                  
Expected life (years)  5      5   5   5   5 
Range of expected volatilities  52.6-57.0%     52.6-58.7%  77.4%  52.5-58.7%  77.4%

The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes option pricingvaluation 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 pricingvaluation 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 stock option plans based on a measure of historical volatility in the trading market for the Company’s common stock.

CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE COSTS

Internal Use Software

We accountThe Company accounts for internal use software development costs under Statement of Position (“SOP”) 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use” (“SOP 98-1”).  SOP 98-1 states that there arebased on three distinct stages to the software development process for internal use software.  The first stage, the preliminary project stage, includes the conceptual

9


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 would beare considered research and development and expensed 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.  We have not sold, leased or licensed software developed for internal use to our customers and we have no intention of doing so in the future.  

Software to be Sold, Licensed or Otherwise Marketed

The Company accounts for these software development costs under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed” (“SFAS No. 86”).  SFAS No. 86 states that 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. To the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the estimated net realizable value of the capitalized software cost, an impairment charge is
9

recorded. No impairment charge was recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively.basis with other long-lived assets.  Amortization of capitalized software development costs, included in direct operating costs, for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2009 amounted to $194 and $161, respectively.  At Junerespectively 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 was $966 and $0, respectively, which is included in unbilled revenue in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  During the three months ended December 31, 2008, the Company reached an agreement with a customer regarding a customized product contract whereby the Company will cease development efforts on the customized product and the customer will complete the development of the product going forward at their sole expense and deliver the completed product back to the Company.  The Company will continue to own the product at all times and retains the rights to market the finished product to others.  The customer agreed to make certain payments to the Company as settlement of all billed and unbilled amounts.  After all such payments, the remaining amount of $400 was included as part of capitalized software costs.  The Company believes this amount will be recoverable from future sales of the product to other customers.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") SFAS No. 141(R). The adoption of SFAS 141(R) did not have a material impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company did not have any business combinations during the three months ended June 30, 2009.

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. The Company assesses its goodwill for impairment at least annually and in interim periods if certain triggering events occur indicating that the carrying value of goodwill may be impaired. The Company also reviews possible impairment of finite lived intangible assets. The Company records goodwillassets annually. During the six months ended September 30, 2008 and intangible assets resulting from past business combinations.  At June 30, 2009, the Company concluded that no triggering events had occurred and no impairment charge was recorded for goodwill.recorded.

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2009, 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 lives ranging from two to ten years.  At JuneNo intangible assets were acquired during the three and six months ended September 30, 2009.  During the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, no impairment charge was recorded for intangible assets.recorded.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation.depreciation and amortization. Depreciation expense is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Leasehold improvements are being amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the improvement. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred. Major renewals, improvements and additions are capitalized.  Upon the sale or other disposition of any property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts and the gain or loss is included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets on a periodic basis in order to identify businesswhen events or conditions which mayexist that indicate a possible impairment.impairment exists. The assessment for potential impairmentrecoverability 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 athe 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 isshould be recognized.  An impairment loss will be recognized if for the difference between the fair value (computed based upon the expected future discounted cash flows)upon) and the carrying value of the assets.asset exceeds its fair value.  Fair value is estimated by computing the expected future discounted cash flows.  During the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2009, no impairment charge for long-lived assets was recorded.

NET LOSS PER SHARE

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

Basic and diluted net loss per share =Net loss 
 
Weighted average number of Common Stock
 outstanding during the period
 

10

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 incurred net losses for each of the three and six months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2009 and, therefore, the impact of dilutive potential common shares from outstanding stock options, warrants, restricted stock, and restricted stock units, totaling 3,385,0704,360,882 shares and 6,106,08323,451,352 shares as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively, were excluded from the computation as it would be anti-dilutive.

ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE ACTIVITIES

In April 2008, the Company executed an interest rate swap agreement (the “Interest Rate Swap”) (see Note 5) to limit the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates.  Changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments are either recognized in other comprehensive income (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 transaction and changes in the value of its Interest Rate Swap were recorded in the condensed consolidated statementstatements of operations (see Note 5).

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

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

·  Level 1 – quoted 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 is generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

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

3.RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2007,Effective July 1, 2009, the FASBFinancial 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 SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interestsby the SEC.  Our accounting policies were not affected by the conversion to ASC.  However, references to specific accounting standards in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary.  SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  The adoption of SFAS 160 did not have a material impact on the Company’sfootnotes to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008,statements have been changed to refer to the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendmentappropriate section of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB Statement No. 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged.  SFAS 161 encourages, but does not require, comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption. The adoption of SFAS 161 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.ASC.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 142-3,”Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP FAS 142-3”).  FSP FAS 142-3 applies to all recognized intangible assets andAt its guidance is restricted to estimating the useful life of recognized intangible assets. FSP FAS 142-3 is effective for the first fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2008 and must be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date. The adoption of FSP FAS 142-3 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as no intangible assets were acquired during the three months ended June 30, 2009.

In June 2008,September 23, 2009 board meeting, the FASB ratified final EITF consensus on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables (“Issue No. 07-5, Determining Whether an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock (“EITF 07-5”) to its existing arrangements to reevaluate, in part, whether financial instruments or embedded features within those arrangements are exempt from accounting under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities(“SFAS 133”08-1”).  EITF 07-5 clarifies how to determine whether certain instruments or features are indexed to an entity’s own stock under EITFThis Issue No. 01-6, The Meaning of ‘Indexed to a Company’s Own Stock’ (EITF 01-6) and thereby possibly exempt from accounting under FAS 133.  The consensus reachedsupersedes Issue 00-21 (codified in EITF 07-5 supersedes those reached in EITF 01-6.  The Company adopted EITF 07-5 as of April 1, 2009, andASC 605-25).  Issue 08-1 addresses the application of EITF 07-5 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.  The Company will apply the provisions to its new arrangements as they arise.
In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments (“FSP”), which amends SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments (“SFAS 107”), to require an entity to provide interim disclosures about the fair value of all financial instruments within the scope of SFAS 107 and to include disclosures related to the methods and significant assumptions used in estimating those instruments. This FSP is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The adoption of this FSP did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165 “Subsequent Events” (“SFAS 165”). SFAS 165 establishes general standardsunit 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 disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS 165 sets forth (1) The period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (2) The circumstances under whichon how an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring afterrevenue for a given unit of accounting are located in other sections of the balance sheet date in its financial statements and (3) The disclosuresCodification.  Issue 08-1 will ultimately be issued as an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. SFAS 165will amend ASC 605-25.  Final consensus is effective for interimfiscal years beginning on or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The adoption of FAS 165 did not have a significant impact on2010.  Entities can elect to apply this Issue (1) prospectively to new or materially modified arrangements after the Company’s consolidated balance sheetIssue’s effective date or consolidated statements of operations and cash flows.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166 “Accounting(2) retrospectively for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS 166”). SFAS 166 improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. SFAS 166 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interimall periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter.presented.  The Company does not believe that SFAS 166revisions 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 FASB issued SFAS No. 167 “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” (“SFAS 167”) (which will be codified in ASC 810-10). SFAS 167Revisions to ASC 810-10 improves financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities 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. SFAS 167Revisions to ASC 810-10 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The Company does not believe that SFAS 167is currently evaluating the impact of adoption and application of revisions to ASC 810-10 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168 “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162”. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) will be the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. SFAS 168 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. All existing accounting standards are superseded as described in SFAS 168. All other accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 168 will have on its financial statements.

In August 2006, AccessITPhase 1 DC entered into an agreement with GECC pursuant to which GECC and certain other lenders agreed to provide to AccessITPhase 1 DC a $217,000 Senior Secured Multi Draw Term Loan (the “GE Credit Facility”). Proceeds from the GE Credit Facility were used for the purchase and installation of up to 70% of the aggregate purchase price, including all costs, fees or other expenses associated with the purchase acquisition, receipt, delivery, construction and installation of Systems in connection with AccessITPhase 1 DC’s Phase I Deployment (see Note 7)deployment and to pay transaction fees and expenses related to the GE Credit Facility, and for certain other specified purposes. The remaining cost of the Systems was funded from other sources of capital including contributed equity. Each of the borrowings by AccessITPhase 1 DC bears interest, at the option of AccessITPhase 1 DC and subject to certain conditions, based on the bank prime loan rate in the United States or the Eurodollar rate, plus a margin ranging from 2.75% to 4.50%, depending on, among other things, the type of rate chosen, the amount of equity contributed into AccessITPhase 1 DC and the total debt of AccessITPhase 1 DC. Under the GE Credit Facility, AccessITPhase 1 DC must pay interest only through July 31, 2008. Beginning August 31, 2008, in addition to the interest payments, AccessITPhase 1 DC must repay approximately 71.5% of the principal amount of the borrowings over a five-year period with a balloon payment for the balance of the principal amount, together with all unpaid interest on such borrowings and any fees incurred by AccessITPhase 1 DC pursuant to the GE Credit Facility on the maturity date of August 1, 2013. In addition, AccessITPhase 1 DC may prepay borrowings under the GE Credit Facility in whole or in part, after July 31, 2007 and before August 1, 2010, subject to paying certain prepayment penalties ranging from 3% to 1%, depending on when the prepayment is made. The GE Credit Facility is required to be guaranteed by each of AccessITPhase 1 DC’s existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) and secured by a first priority perfected security interest on all of the collective assets of AccessITPhase 1 DC and the Guarantors, including real estate owned or leased, and all capital stock or

15


other equity interests in AccessITPhase 1 DC and its subsidiaries, subject to specified exceptions. The GE Credit Facility is not guaranteed by the Company or its other subsidiaries, other than AccessITPhase 1 DC. During the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2009, the Company repaid principal of $0$3,858 and $6,056,$18,868, respectively, on the GE Credit Facility.  The 2009 payments include a prepayment of $5,000 in accordance with the GE Fifth Amendment described below, and an additional voluntary prepayment of $2,000.  As of JuneSeptember 30, 2009, the outstanding principal balance of the GE Credit Facility was $179,792$166,980 at a weighted average interest rate of 10.7%.

Under the GE Credit Facility, as amended, AccessIT DC is required to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants. Material covenants include a leverage ratio, and an interest coverage ratio.  In September 2007, AccessIT DC entered into the third amendment with respect to the GE Credit Facility to (1) lower the interest reserve from 12 months to 9 months; (2) modify the definition of total equity ratio to count as capital contributions (x) up to $23,300 of permitted subordinated indebtedness and (y) up to $4,000 of previously paid and approved expenses that were incurred during the deployment of Systems; (3) change the leverage ratio covenant; (4) add a new consolidated senior leverage ratio covenant; and (5) change the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio covenant.

In May 2009, AccessITPhase 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 9 months of forward cash interest to a fixed $6,900, and permitted a one-time payment of $2,600 to be made from
15

AccessIT Phase 1 DC to its parent Company, AccessDM; (4) increase the quarterly maximum consolidated leverage ratio covenants that AccessITPhase 1 DC is required to meet on a trailing 12 months basis; (5) increase the maximum consolidated senior leverage ratio covenants that AccessITPhase 1 DC is required to meet on a trailing 12 months basis; (6) reduce the quarterly minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio covenants that AccessITPhase 1 DC is required to meet on a trailing 12 months basis and (7) add a covenant requiring AccessITPhase 1 DC to maintain a minimum unrestricted cash balance of $2,000 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, AccessITPhase 1 DC paid an amendment fee to GE and the other lenders of approximately $1,000.  The amendment fee was recorded as debt issue costs and is being amortized over the remaining term of the GE Credit Facility.  At JuneSeptember 30, 2009, the Company was in compliance with all covenants contained in the GE Credit Facility, as amended.

In August 2009, in connection with the 2009 Private Placement (see Note 5), Phase 1 DC entered into a fifth amendment (the “GE Fifth Amendment”) with respect to the GE Credit Facility, whereby $5,000 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. Phase 1 DC then funded the prepayment with respect to the GE Credit Facility. The prepayment is 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.

In October 2009, in connection with the Phase II Deployment, the Company signed commitment letters for financing with GECC and Société Générale (see Note 11).

In April 2008, AccessITPhase 1 DC executed the Interest Rate Swap otherwise known as an “arranged hedge transaction” or "synthetic fixed rate financing" with a counterparty for a notional amount of approximately 90% of the amounts outstanding under the GE Credit Facility or an initial amount of $180,000. Under the Interest Rate Swap, AccessITPhase 1 DC will effectively pay a fixed rate of 7.3%, to guard against AccessITPhase 1 DC’s exposure to increases in the variable interest rate under the GE Credit Facility.

We have incurred net losses of $4.3$6.3 million and $7.1$1.1 million in the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively, and $10.6 million and $8.2 million in the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009,

30


respectively, and we have an accumulated deficit of $145.3$146.5 million as of JuneSeptember 30, 2009. We also have significant contractual obligations related to our recourse and non-recourse debt for the remainder of fiscal year 2010 and beyond. We expect to continue generating net losses for the foreseeable future.  Based on our cash position at JuneSeptember 30, 2009, and expected cash flows from operations, we believe that we have the ability to meet our obligations through JuneSeptember 30, 2010. We are seeking to raise additional capital to refinance certain outstanding debt, to meet equipment requirements related to the Access Digital Cinema Phase 2 Corp. (“Phase 2 DC”)DC second digital cinema deployment (the “Phase II Deployment”) and for working capital as necessary. Although we recently entered into certain agreements 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. We expect any Phase II debt will be non-recourse to the parent company, as is the case with our existing debt at AccessITPhase 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments which may result from our inability to continue as a going concern.

Revenues decreased $1.9$2.0 million or 9%.  The decrease in revenues in the Media ServicePhase I Deployment segment was primarily due to an 11%a 10% decrease in AccessITPhase 1 DC’s VPF revenues, attributable to a contractual 16% reduction in VPF rates starting in November 2008, offset by a 5%an increase in quarterly screen turnover, by modestturnover.  The increase in revenues in the Phase II Deployment segment was due to Phase 2 DC VPF revenues and upfront fees from our TCC software which were not generated during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30,
26

2008, as no Phase 2 DC’s Systems were installed and ready for content until December 2008.  The decrease in revenues in the Services segment was primarily due to (i) a 26% 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 in the number of digital delivery sites and a 52% decrease in non-theatrical satellite services revenues due to general economic factors; and (ii) a 22% 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 GECC’s Media, Communications & Entertainment business (“GE Capital”) and a possible international deployment of Systems.  Société Générale Corporate & Investment Banking (“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 14%10% due to a 24% decline in in-theatre advertising revenues, attributable to the elimination of various under-performing customer contracts, as well as the current weak macro-economiceconomic environment, offset by a 4% increase in national advertising revenues generated by the partnership with Screenvision.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 55%51% for alternative content and content sponsorship revenues as CEG planned a limited number of events and independent films during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009.  The CEG distribution slate will expand modestly in our fiscal year’s second quarter and is expected to be more significant in the second half of our 2010 fiscal year..year commencing in October 2009 with the 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.

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.

Direct Operating Expenses

  For the Three Months Ended September 30, 
($ in thousands) 2008  2009  Change 
Phase I Deployment $241  $262   9%
Phase II Deployment     61    
Services  1,512   1,349   (11)%
Content & Entertainment  2,874   2,553   (11)%
Other  2,105   1,841   (13)%
  $6,732  $6,066   (10)%

Direct operating expenses decreased $0.7 million or 10%.  The increase in direct operating costs in the Phase I Deployment segment was primarily due to a 27% 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 three months ended September 30, 2008.  The decrease in the Content & Entertainment segment was primarily related to a 28% 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-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 decrease as compared to prior periods and remain constant at the current level.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

  For the Three Months Ended September 30, 
($ in thousands) 2008  2009  Change 
Phase I Deployment $313  $117   (63)%
Phase II Deployment     244

Other  201   223   11%
Corporate  1,656   1,798   9%
  $4,187  $4,073   (3)%

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $0.1 million or 3%.  The decrease was primarily caused by reduced payroll related expenses in the Phase I Deployment segment due to the completion of our Phase I Deployment as those costs are now being allocated to the Phase II Deployment segment.  The decrease was also related to reduced staffing levels in the Content & Entertainment segment offset by increased professional fees within Corporate due to one-time investor relations expenses and compensation consulting fees and scheduled quarterly directors’ fees. Following the completion of our Phase I Deployment, overall headcount reductions have now stabilized.  As of 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.

32



Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation expense increased approximately $0.2 million or 120%.  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 stock-based compensation expense for the quarter.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense on Property and Equipment

  For the Three Months Ended September 30, 
($ in thousands) 2008  2009  Change 
Phase I Deployment $7,137  $7,139    
Phase II Deployment     290

Other  265   198   (25)%
Corporate  17   9   (47)%
  $8,133  $8,323   2%

Depreciation and amortization expense remained consistent with last year.  Other than the Phase II Deployment and Services segments, the decreases reflect reduced expense on assets which are fully depreciated or amortized at September 30, 2009.  The increase in the Phase II Deployment segment represents depreciation on the Phase 2 DC Systems which were not in service during the three months ended September 30, 2008.   We expect the depreciation and amortization expense in the Phase II Deployment segment to increase as new Phase 2 DC Systems are installed.

Interest expense

  For the Three Months Ended September 30, 
($ in thousands) 2008  2009  Change 
Phase I Deployment $4,315  $5,456   26%
Phase II Deployment     227    
Services  4   25   525%
Content & Entertainment  4   3   (25)%
Other  260   259    
Corporate  2,407   2,821   17%
  $6,990  $8,791   26%

Interest expense increased $1.8 million or 26%. Total interest expense included $6.2 million and $7.7 million of interest paid and accrued for the three 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 credit facility with KBC Bank NV (“KBC”) to fund the purchase of Systems (the “KBC Related Facility”) from Barco, Inc. (“Barco”).

Non-cash interest expense was $0.7 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively.  The increase was due to the accretion of the note payable discount associated with the note issued in August 2009 (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

33


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 $0.6 million 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 2008 related to the GE Credit Facility.

Change in fair value of warrants

The change in fair value of warrants issued to Sageview Capital LP (“Sageview”), related to the 2009 Note, was a loss of $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.  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.

Revenues decreased $3.9 million or 9%.  The decrease in revenues in the Phase I Deployment segment was primarily due to an 11% 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.   The increase in revenues in the Phase II Deployment segment was due to Phase 2 DC VPF revenues which were not generated during the six months ended September 30, 2008, as no Phase 2 DC’s Systems were installed and ready 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 in 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.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007,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.

At its September 23, 2009 board meeting, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51”ratified final EITF consensus on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables (“SFAS 160”Issue 08-1”).  SFAS 160 establishes newThis 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 reporting standardson how an entity should recognize revenue for a given unit of accounting are located in other sections of the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a
28

subsidiary.  SFAS No. 160Codification.  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 DecemberJune 15, 2008.  The adoption of SFAS 160 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities.2010.  Entities are requiredcan elect to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB Statement No. 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged.  SFAS 161 encourages, but does not require, comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption. The adoption of SFAS 161 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 142-3,”Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP FAS 142-3”).  FSP FAS 142-3 applies to all recognized intangible assets and its guidance is restricted to estimating the useful life of recognized intangible assets. FSP FAS 142-3 is effective for the first fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2008 and must be appliedapply this Issue (1) prospectively to intangible assets acquirednew or materially modified arrangements after the Issue’s effective date. The adoption of FSP FAS 142-3 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as no intangible assets were acquired during the three months ended June 30, 2009.

In June 2008, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 07-5, Determining Whether an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock (“EITF 07-5”) to its existing arrangements to reevaluate, in part, whether financial instrumentsdate or embedded features within those arrangements are exempt from accounting under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting(2) retrospectively for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities(“SFAS 133”).  EITF 07-5 clarifies how to determine whether certain instruments or features are indexed to an entity’s own stock under EITF Issue No. 01-6, The Meaning of ‘Indexed to a Company’s Own Stock’ (EITF 01-6) and thereby possibly exempt from accounting under FAS 133.  The consensus reached in EITF 07-5 supersedes those reached in EITF 01-6.  The Company adopted EITF 07-5 as of April 1, 2009, and the application of EITF 07-5 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The Company will apply the provisions to its new arrangements as they arise.

In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments (“FSP”), which amends SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments (“SFAS 107”), to require an entity to provide interim disclosures about the fair value of all financial instruments within the scope of SFAS 107 and to include disclosures related to the methods and significant assumptions used in estimating those instruments. This FSP is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The adoption of this FSP did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165 “Subsequent Events” (“SFAS 165”). SFAS 165 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS 165 sets forth (1) The period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (2) The circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and (3) The disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. SFAS 165 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The adoption of FAS 165 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet or consolidated statements of operations and cash flows.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166 “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS 166”). SFAS 166 improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. SFAS 166 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter.presented.  The Company does not believe that SFAS 166revisions 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 FASB issued SFAS No. 167 “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” (“SFAS 167”) (which will be codified in ASC 810-10). SFAS 167Revisions to ASC 810-10 improves financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities 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. SFAS 167Revisions to ASC 810-10 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The Company does not believe that SFAS 167is currently evaluating the impact of adoption and application of revisions to ASC 810-10 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168 “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162”. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) will be the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. SFAS 168 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. All existing accounting standards are superseded as described in SFAS 168. All other accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 168 will have on its 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 38,000 domestic (United States and Canada) movie theatre screens and approximately 107,000 screens worldwide.  Approximately 6,500 of the domestic screens are equipped with digital cinema technology, and 3,8633,884 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 5-7 years, and we have announced plans to convert up to an additional 10,000 domestic screens to digital in our Phase II Deployment over the nexta three years,year period starting October 2008, of which 139160 Systems have been installed as of JuneSeptember 30, 2009. 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.  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 operation 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, AccessITPhase 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.  As of June 30, 2009, the outstanding principal balance of the GE Credit Facility was $179.8 million at a weighted average interest rate of 10.7%.  Further borrowings are not permitted under the GE Credit Facility.  The Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants that restrict AccessITPhase 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 AccessITPhase 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, AccessITPhase 1 DC received $9.6 million of vendor financing (the “Vendor Note”) for equipment used in AccessITPhase 1 DC’s Phase I Deployment.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 AccessITPhase 1 DC.  As of JuneSeptember 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

In August 2007, we entered intoamount will decrease by a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) withpro rata amount, such that approximately 90% of the purchasers party thereto (the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which we issued 10% Senior Notes (the “2007 Senior Notes”) in the aggregateremaining principal amount of $55.0 million (the “August 2007 Private Placement”) and received net proceeds of approximately $53.0 million. The term of the 2007 Senior Notes is three years which may be extended for one 6 month period at our discretion if certain conditions are met.  Interest on the 2007 Senior Notes will be paid on a quarterly basis in cash or, at our option and subject to certain conditions, in shares of its Class A Common Stock (“covered by the Interest Shares”). In addition, each quarter, we will issue shares of Class A Common Stock to the Purchasers as payment of additional interest owed under the 2007 Senior Notes based on a formula (“Additional Interest”).  We may prepay the 2007 Senior Notes in whole or in part following the first anniversary of issuance of the 2007 Senior Notes, subject to a penalty of 2% of the principal if the 2007 Senior Notes are prepaid prior to the two year anniversary of the issuance and a penalty of 1% of the principal if the 2007 Senior Notes are prepaid thereafter, and subject to paying the number of shares as Additional Interest that would be due through the end of the term of the 2007 Senior Notes.  The Purchase Agreement also requires the 2007 Senior Notes to be guaranteed by each of our existing and, subject to certain exceptions, future subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”), other than AccessIT DC and its respective subsidiaries. Accordingly, each of the Guarantors entered into a subsidiary guaranty (the “Subsidiary Guaranty”) with the Purchasers pursuant to which it guaranteed our obligations under the 2007 Senior Notes.  We also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Purchasers pursuant to which we agreed to register the resale of any shares of its Class A Common Stock issued pursuant to the 2007 Senior NotesRate Swap at any time and from time to time.  As of March 31, 2009, all shares issued to the holders of the 2007 Senior Notes were registered for resale.  Under the  2007 Senior Notes we agreed (i) to limit our total indebtedness to an aggregate of $315.0 million unless certain conditions were met, which conditions have been met allowing us to incur indebtedness in excess of $315.0 million in the aggregate, (ii) not to pay dividends on any capital stock, and (iii) not to, and not to cause our subsidiaries (except for AccessIT DC and its subsidiaries) to, incur indebtedness, with certain exceptions, including an exception for $10.0 million; provided that no more than $5.0 million of such indebtedness is incurred by AccessDM or AccessIT Satellite or any of their respective subsidiaries except as incurred by AccessDM pursuant to a guaranty entered into in accordance with the GE Credit Facility.  Additionally, under the 2007 Senior Notes, AccessIT DC and its subsidiaries may incur additional indebtedness in connection with the deployment of Systems beyond our initial rollout of up to 4,000 Systems, if certain conditions are met.  As of June 30, 2009, the outstanding principal balance of the 2007 Senior Notes was $55.0 million.

In May 2009, AccessITPhase 1 DC entered into the fourth amendment (the “GE Fourth Amendment”) with respect to the GE Credit Facility (see Note 5) 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 AccessITPhase 1 DC to its parent Company, AccessDM; (4) increase the quarterly maximum consolidated leverage ratio covenants that AccessITPhase 1 DC is required to meet on a trailing 12 months basis; (5) increase the maximum consolidated senior leverage ratio covenants that AccessITPhase 1 DC is required to meet on a trailing 12 months basis; (6) reduce the quarterly minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio covenants that AccessITPhase 1 DC is required to meet on a trailing 12 months basis and (7) add a covenant requiring AccessITPhase 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, AccessITPhase 1 DC paid fees to GE and the other lenders totaling $1.0 million.  At JuneSeptember 30, 2009 the Company was in compliance with all covenants contained in the GE Credit Facility, as amended and noted above.

In December 2008, Phase 2 B/AIX, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a credit facility (the “Barcothe KBC Related Facility”) with a bankFacility 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 JuneSeptember 30, 2009, $4.4$8.9 million has been drawn down on the BarcoKBC Related Facility and the outstanding principal balance of the BarcoKBC Related Facility was $4.4$8.9 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.

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 JuneSeptember 30, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $19.0$19.7 million and we had negativeour working capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities, of $(4.6)was $5.9 million.

Operating activities provided net cash of $8.8$15.2 million and $2.1$6.8 million for the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively.  The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to an increased net loss and coupled with lesser amounts of non-cash expenses, decreased collections of outstanding accounts receivable,
31

offset by reduced increased payments for accounts payable and accrued expenses and increasedan 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.  We expect operating activities to continue to be a positive source of cash.

Investing activities used net cash of $12.7$16.5 million and $5.9$30.5 million for the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively. The decreaseincrease was due to the purchase of available-for-sale investments related to the funds received from the 2009 Note offset by reduced payments due on Systems purchased for AccessIT DC’s Phase I Deployment. Asin addition to an increase in restricted cash of June 30, 2009, there are no material remaining payments due on Systems purchased for AccessIT DC’s Phase I Deployment.  Accordingly we$6.9 million related to the fourth amendment with respect to the GE Credit Facility. We expect investing activities to use less cash than prior periods moving forward.forward at least until additional Systems for the Phase II Deployment are purchased and installed.

Financing activities used net cash of $0.7 million and $3.6$5.2 million for the threesix months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively.provided net cash of $17.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2009.  The increase in cash usedprovided was due mainly to the proceeds from the 2009 Note and the proceeds from credit facilities for Systems for our Phase II Deployment offset by the repayment of the 2007 Senior Notes, increased principal repayments on the GE Credit Facility and debt issuance costs paid resulting from the GE Fourth Amendment offset by proceeds from credit facilities for Systems for our Phase II Deployment.and the 2009 Note.  Financing activities are expected to continue using net cash, primarily for principal repayments on the GE Credit Facility and other existing debt facilities.  Although we continue to seek new sources of financing and to refinance existing obligations, the terms of any such financing have not yet been determined.

The Company expects future Phase II screen deployments to vary from the structure it has used to deploy 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 admistrativeadministrative agent to bill VPFs and oversee the assets, in exchange for a fee, expressed as a percentage of VPF’sVPFs and other revenues.  Another contemplated structure for future Phase II deployments, will be a new entity or entities that would not be majority-owned by the Company, and therefore any underlying Phase II activity would not be consolidated with the Company’s financial statements.

We have contractual obligations that include long-term debt consisting of notes payable, a revolving credit facility,facilities, non-cancelable long-term capital lease obligations for the Pavilion Theatre and other various computer related equipment, non-cancelable operating leases consisting of real estate leases and minimum guaranteed obligations under theatre advertising agreements with exhibitors for displaying cinema advertising.

(6)Includes $5.8 million for Systems related to Phase 2 DC’s Phase II Deployment, to be funded by Phase 2 DC’s credit facility and payments from exhibitors.


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, interest on the 2007 Senior Notes,2009 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 2007 Senior Notes2009 Note and the 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 additional capital to refinance certain outstanding debt, and also 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

Content & Entertainment revenuesRevenues derived from our Pavilion Theatre in our Other segment and Media Servicesour 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

The Company hasWe have evaluated events and transactions that occurred between JuneSeptember 30, 2009 and August 12,November 13, 2009, which is the date the financial statements were issued, for possible disclosure or recognition in the financial statements. The Company hasWe have determined that there were no such events or transactions that warrant disclosure or recognition in the financial statements except as noted below.

In August 2009, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the purchaser party thereto (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 “2009 Warrants”) to purchase 16,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Private Placement”). The proceeds of the Private Placement will be used for the payment of existing indebtedness, the payment of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Private Placement, including a cash reserve to pay the interest amount required under the 2009 Note, and other general corporate purposes.  The 2009 Note has a five year term. Interest on the 2009 Note is 8% per annum to be accrued as an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the 2009 Note and 7% per annum paid in cash, subject to increase under certain conditions. The 2009 Note is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries. The 2009 Warrants have a seven year term and an initial exercise price of $1.37, subject to adjustment if certain conditions are met. The 2009 Warrants contain restrictions which may be eliminated upon obtaining the approval of stockholders. In connection with the Private Placement, the

Item 4T.    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 period 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 material 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.



PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

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
34

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.

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.”
