INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION

UNAUDITED CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.	Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Internap Network Services Corporation (“Internap,” “we,” “us” or “our”) provides secure and reliable data center services and a suite of network optimization and delivery services and products that manage, deliver and distribute applications and content with a 100% availability service level agreement. We help our customers innovate their businesses, improve service levels and lower the cost of information technology operations. Our services and products, combined with progressive and proactive technical support, enable our customers to migrate business-critical applications from private to public networks.

We provide services at 36 data centers across North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region and through 73 Internet Protocol (“IP”) service points, which include 21 content delivery network (“CDN”) points of presence (“POPs”). We also have two additional domestic standalone data center locations and one additional international standalone CDN POPs through which we provide IP services by extension. Through June 30, 2010, revenues generated and long-lived assets located outside the United States were less than 10% of our total revenues and assets.

We have prepared our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) which include all of our accounts and those of our wholly owned subsidiaries. As permitted by such rules and regulations, we have condensed or omitted certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of our financial position as of June 30, 2010 and our operating results, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity for the interim periods pres ented. We derived the balance sheet at December 31, 2009 from our audited financial statements as of that date. You should read these financial statements and the related notes in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 filed with the SEC.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses in the financial statements. Examples of estimates subject to possible revision based upon the outcome of future events include, among others, the provision for doubtful accounts, network cost accruals, income taxes, sales, use and other taxes, recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, depreciation of property and equipment, the valuation of investments, restructuring allowances and stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future periods or for the year ending December 31, 2010 or subsequent years.

2.	Operating Segments

We operate in two business segments: data center services and IP services. The data center services segment includes physical space for hosting customers’ network and other equipment, managed hosting and services such as redundant power and network connectivity, environmental controls and security. The IP services segment includes our IP transit activities and high performance Internet connectivity, CDN services and flow control platform (“FCP”) products.

The following tables show operating results for our business segments, along with reconciliations from segment gross profit to loss before income taxes and equity in (loss) earnings of equity-method investment:

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION

UNAUDITED CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

During the three months ended June 30, 2010, we identified and corrected an error impacting deferred rent expense related to prior years. This adjustment resulted in a decrease in direct costs of data center services of $0.3 million, which we determined to be immaterial to prior year financial statements.

Segment gross profit is segment revenues less direct costs of network, sales and services, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, and does not include direct costs of customer support, direct costs of amortization of acquired technologies or any other depreciation or amortization associated with direct costs.

3.	Restructuring and Impairments

Restructuring

In 2001, 2007, 2009 and 2010, we implemented significant restructuring plans that resulted in substantial charges for real estate and network infrastructure obligations and personnel charges.

The following table displays the activity and balances for the restructuring activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 (in thousands):

	December 31, 2009 Restructuring Liability		Initial Restructuring Charges		Subsequent Plan Adjustments		Cash Payments			June 30, 2010 Restructuring Liability
Activity for 2010 restructuring charge:
Real estate obligations	$	—	$	36	$	—	$	(5	)	$	31

Activity for 2009 restructuring charge:
Employee terminations		36		—		18		(54	)		—
Real estate obligations		178		—		—		(123	)		55

Activity for 2007 restructuring charge:
Real estate obligations		6,248		—		977		(771	)		6,454

Activity for 2001 restructuring charge:
Real estate obligations		2,480		—		226		(278	)		2,428

Total	$	8,942	$	36	$	1,221	$	(1,231	)	$	8,968

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we made subsequent plan adjustments in sublease income assumptions for certain properties included in our previously disclosed restructuring plans. Due to the current economic recession, these adjustments extend the period during which we do not anticipate receiving sublease income from those properties given our expectation that it will take longer to find sublease tenants and the increased availability of space in each of these markets where we have unused space. Subsequent plan adjustments of $1.2 million and initial restructuring charges of $0.04 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 are included in “Impairments and restructuring” on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Impairments

We base our impairment analysis of goodwill on estimated fair values. The assumptions, inputs and judgments used in performing the valuation analysis are inherently subjective and reflect estimates based on known facts and circumstances at the time we perform the valuation. These estimates and assumptions primarily include, but are not limited to, discount rates; terminal growth rates; projected revenues and costs; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for expected cash flows; market comparables and capital expenditure forecasts. The use of different assumptions, inputs and judgments, or changes in circumstances, could materially affect the results of the valuation. Due to inherent uncertainty involved in making these estimates, actual results could differ from our estimates and could result in additional non-cash impairment charges in the future.

We perform our annual goodwill impairment test as of August 1 each calendar year absent any impairment indicators or other changes that may cause more frequent analysis. We also assess on a quarterly basis whether any events have occurred or circumstances have changed that would indicate an impairment could exist. We do not believe that our reporting units currently are at risk of failing step one in an impairment analysis. We concluded that no impairment indicators existed to cause us to re-assess goodwill during the six months ended June 30, 2010.

UNAUDITED CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

4.	Stock-Based Compensation

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we granted 0.3 million and 1.8 million stock options, respectively, and 0.1 million and 0.5 million shares of unvested restricted common stock, respectively. From time-to-time, we acquire shares of treasury stock as payment of taxes due from employees upon vesting of restricted stock, including $0.1 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and $0.3 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. Total stock-based compensation was $1.4 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $2.4 million and $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. We use the Black-Scholes option valuation model to determine our equity-classified stock-based compensation expense.

5.	Income Taxes

At the end of each quarterly reporting period, we estimate the effective income tax rate we expect to be applicable for the full year. We use the expected effective income tax rate to provide for income taxes on a year-to-date basis. We reflect the tax effect of any tax law changes and certain other discrete events in the period in which they occur.

Our overall effective income tax rate, as a percentage of pre-tax ordinary income, for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was (23%) and (1%), respectively. The fluctuation in the effective income tax rate was attributable to recognition of income taxes in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), permanent tax adjustment items, a change in valuation allowance and state income taxes.

The annual effective tax rate for 2010 could change due to a number of factors including, but not limited to, our geographic profit mix between the United States (“U.S.”), the U.K. and other foreign jurisdictions, new tax laws, new interpretations of existing tax law and rulings by and settlements with taxing authorities.

We continue to maintain a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets of $128.0 million. The total deferred tax assets primarily consist of net operating loss carryforwards. We may recognize U.S. deferred tax assets in future periods when we estimate them to be realizable. Based on an analysis of our historic and projected future U.S. pre-tax income, we do not have sufficient positive evidence to expect a release of our valuation allowance against our U.S. deferred tax assets currently or within the next 12 months. Accordingly, we continue to maintain the full valuation allowance in the U.S. and all foreign jurisdictions, other than the U.K.

For the six months ended June 30, 2010, there were no new material uncertain tax positions. Also, we do not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months.

6.	Loss Per Share

We calculated basic and diluted net loss per share as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

7.	Fair Value Measurements

We account for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:

	●	Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
	●	Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
	●	Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The following table represents the fair value hierarchy for our financial assets (cash equivalents, investments in marketable securities and other related assets) measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):


June 30, 2010	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total

	(2) Included in “Short-term investments in marketable securities” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. ARS rights were rights that entitled us to sell the auction rate securities back to the investment provider at par value.
	(3) Included in “Cash and cash equivalents” in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009 in addition to $47.9 million of cash.

The following table summarizes changes in fair value of our Level 3 financial assets, auction rate securities and ARS rights, for the six months ended June 30, 2010 (in thousands):


	Auction Rate Securities			ARS Rights

Balance, January 1, 2010	$	6,503		$	497
Total gains (losses) (realized and unrealized)		497			(4	)
Settlements		(4,300	)		(493	)
Balance, June 30, 2010	$	2,700		$	—

Market risk associated with our variable rate revolving credit facility and fixed rate other liabilities relates to the potential negative impact to future earnings and reduction in fair value, respectively, from an increase in interest rates. At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we estimate that the carrying values of our variable rate revolving credit facility and other liabilities at fixed rates approximated fair value based on current market rates of interest.

Subsequent to June 30, 2010, we sold the remaining $2.7 million of the auction rate securities at par value.

8.	Contingencies and Litigation

Securities Class Action Litigation. On November 12, 2008, a putative securities fraud class action lawsuit was filed against us and our former chief executive officer in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, captioned Catherine Anastasio and Stephen Anastasio v. Internap Network Services Corp. and James P. DeBlasio, Civil Action No. 1:08-CV-3462-JOF. The complaint alleges that we and the individual defendant violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and that the individual defendant also violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act as a “control person” of In ternap. Plaintiffs purport to bring these claims on behalf of a class of our investors who purchased our common stock between March 28, 2007 and March 18, 2008.

Plaintiffs allege generally that, during the putative class period, we made misleading statements and omitted material information regarding (a) integration of VitalStream Holdings, Inc (“VitalStream”), which we acquired in February 2007, (b) customer issues and related credits due to services outages and (c) our previously reported 2007 revenue that we subsequently reduced in 2008 as announced on March 18, 2008. Plaintiffs assert that we and the individual defendant made these misstatements and omissions to keep our stock price high. Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and other relief.

On August 12, 2009, the Court granted plaintiffs leave to file an Amended Class Action Complaint (“Amended Complaint”). The Amended Complaint added a claim for violation of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act based on alleged misrepresentations in our proxy statement in connection with our acquisition of VitalStream. The Amended Complaint also added our former chief financial officer as a defendant and lengthened the putative class period.

On September 11, 2009, we and the individual defendants filed motions to dismiss. Those motions are currently pending before the Court. On November 6, 2009, plaintiffs filed a Corrected Amended Class Action Complaint. On December 7, 2009, plaintiffs filed a motion for leave to file a Second Amended Class Action Complaint to add allegations regarding, inter alia, an alleged failure to conduct due diligence in connection with the VitalStream acquisition and additional statements from purported confidential witnesses. We opposed plaintiffs’ motion for leave to file the Second Amended Class Action Complaint and that motion is also currently pending before the Court.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION

UNAUDITED CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Derivative Action Litigation. On November 12, 2009, stockholder Walter M. Unick filed a putative derivative action purportedly on behalf of Internap against certain of our directors and officers in the Superior Court of Fulton County, Georgia, captioned Unick v. Eidenberg, et al., Case No. 2009cv177627. This action is based upon substantially the same facts alleged in the securities class action litigation described above. The complaint seeks to recover damages in an unspecified amount. On January 28, 2010, the Court entered the parties’ agreed order staying the matter until the motions to dismiss are resolved in the securities class action litigation.

While we intend to vigorously contest these lawsuits, we cannot determine the final resolution of the lawsuits or when they might be resolved. In addition to the expenses incurred in defending this litigation and any damages that may be awarded in the event of an adverse ruling, our management’s efforts and attention may be diverted from the ordinary business operations to address these claims. Regardless of the outcome, this litigation may have a material adverse impact on our results because of defense costs, including costs related to our indemnification obligations, diversion of resources and other factors.

We are subject to other legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, we do not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

9.	Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements That We Have Adopted

In January 2010, we adopted new accounting guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), which amends the evaluation criteria to identify the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and requires ongoing reassessment of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The new guidance significantly changes the consolidation rules for VIEs including the consolidation of common structures, such as joint ventures, equity method investments and collaboration arrangements and is applicable to all new and existing VIEs. Adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, we adopted new accounting guidance issued by the FASB which amends the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires new disclosures on the transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 (quoted prices in active market for identical assets or liabilities) and Level 2 (significant other observable inputs) of the fair value measurement hierarchy, including the reasons and the timing of the transfers. Additionally, the guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuances and settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements), which will be effective during the first quarter of 2011. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance did no t and will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements That We Have Not Yet Adopted

In September 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to revenue recognition of multiple element arrangements. The new guidance states that if vendor-specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, companies will be required to develop a best estimate of the selling price to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. The accounting guidance will be applied prospectively and will become effective during the first quarter of 2011. Early adoption is allowed. We are currently evaluating the impact of this accounting guidance, but do not expect adoption will materially impact our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to certain revenue arrangements that include software elements. Previously, companies that sold tangible products with “more than incidental” software were required to apply software revenue recognition guidance. This guidance often delayed revenue recognition for the delivery of the tangible product. Under the new guidance, tangible products that have software components that are “essential to the functionality” of the tangible product will be excluded from the software revenue recognition guidance. The new guidance includes factors to help determine what is “essential to the functionality.” Software-enabled products will not be subject to other revenue recognition guidance and will likely follow the guidance for multiple deliverable ar rangements issued by the FASB in September 2009, noted above. The new guidance is to be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early application permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this accounting guidance, but do not expect adoption will materially impact our consolidated financial statements.

In addition to the accounting pronouncements described above, we have adopted and considered other recent accounting pronouncements that either did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or are not relevant to our business. We do not expect other recently issued accounting pronouncements that are not yet effective will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

10.	Capital Lease Obligations

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we entered into a lease agreement for new data center space in Santa Clara, California and a lease amendment which expanded our data center space in Seattle, Washington. As a result, property and equipment and corresponding capital lease obligations increased by $16.7 million.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations set forth below, and notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein, contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding industry trends, our future financial position and performance, business strategy, revenues and expenses in future periods, projected levels of growth and other matters that do not relate strictly to historical facts. These statements are often identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “seeks,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,& #8221; “expects,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “continue,” “could,” “should” or similar expressions or variations. These statements are based on the beliefs and expectations of our management team based on information currently available. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by forward-looking statements. Important factors currently known to our management that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those referenced in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under “Part II. Other Information—Item 1A. Risk Factors.” We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes provided under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As used herein references to “we,” “us,” “our,” or “Internap” refer to Internap Network Services Corporation.

Overview

We provide secure and reliable data center services and a suite of network optimization and delivery services and products that manage, deliver and distribute applications and content with a 100% availability service level agreement. We help our customers innovate their businesses, improve service levels and lower the cost of information technology operations. Our services and products, combined with progressive and proactive technical support, enable our customers to migrate business-critical applications from private to public networks.

We provide services at 36 data centers across North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region and through 73 Internet Protocol (“IP”) service points, which include 21 content delivery network (“CDN”) points of presence (“POPs”). We also have two additional domestic standalone data center locations and one additional international standalone CDN POPs through which we provide IP services by extension. Through June 30, 2010, revenues generated and long-lived assets located outside the United States (“U.S.”) were less than 10% of our total revenues and assets.

Our data center, or colocation, services allow us to expand the reach of our high performance IP services to customers who wish to take advantage of locating their network and application assets in secure, high-performance facilities. Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we refer to data center services and colocation services interchangeably. Our intelligent routing technology facilitates traffic over multiple carriers, as opposed to just one carrier’s network, to ensure highly-reliable performance over the Internet. We believe that our unique managed multi-network approach provides better performance, control and reliability compared to conventional Internet connectivity alternatives.

We currently have approximately 2,800 customers across 28 metropolitan markets, serving a variety of industries, such as entertainment and media, including gaming; financial services; business services; software, including software-as-a-service; hosting and information technology infrastructure; and telecommunications.

Operating Segments

Data Center Services

Data center services primarily include physical space for hosting customers’ network and other equipment as well as associated services such as redundant power and network connectivity, environmental controls and security.

Our data center services expand the reach of our high performance IP services for customers who wish to take advantage of locating their network and application assets in secure, high-performance facilities. We operate data centers where customers can host their applications directly on our network to eliminate issues associated with the quality of local connections. Data center services also enable us to have a more flexible product offering, such as bundling our high performance IP connectivity and CDN services, along with hosting customers’ applications. Our data center services provide a single source for network infrastructure, IP connectivity and security, all of which are designed to maximize solution performance while providing a more stable, dependable infrastructure, and are backed by service level agreements and our team of dedicated support professionals. We also provide a managed hosting solution that leverages our IP services. With this service, our customers own and manage the software applications and content, while we provide and maintain the hardware, operating system, colocation and bandwidth.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

We use a combination of facilities operated by us and by third parties, referred to as company-controlled facilities and partner sites, respectively. We offer a comprehensive solution at 38 service points, consisting of nine company-controlled facilities and 29 partner sites. We charge monthly fees for data center services based on the amount of square footage and power that our customers use. We also have relationships with various data center providers to extend our private network access points (“P-NAP”) model into markets with high demand.

During 2009, we implemented Statement on Auditing Standards No. 70 (“SAS 70”) Type II controls and processes in our company-controlled data centers. Our implementation of SAS 70 Type II provides assurances that controls and processes around our data center security and environmental protection have been suitably designed and are operating effectively to protect and safeguard customers’ equipment and data. The underlying providers for several of our partner data centers have also implemented SAS 70 Type II controls and processes.

IP Services

IP services represent our IP transit activities and include our high-performance Internet connectivity, CDN services and flow control platform (“FCP”) products.

Our patented and patent-pending network route optimization technologies address the inherent weaknesses of the Internet, allowing businesses to take advantage of the convenience, flexibility and reach of the Internet to connect to customers, suppliers and partners, and to adopt new information technology delivery models, in a reliable and predictable manner. Our services and products take into account the unique performance requirements of each business application to ensure performance as designed, without unnecessary cost. Our fees for IP services are based on a fixed fee, usage or a combination of both.

Our CDN services enable our customers to quickly and securely stream and distribute rich media and content, such as video, audio software and applications to audiences across the globe through strategically located data POPs. Providing capacity-on-demand to handle large events and unanticipated traffic spikes, we deliver scalable high-quality content distribution and the analytic tools to allow our customers to refine their marketing programs.

Our FCP products are a premise-based intelligent routing hardware product for customers who run their own multiple network architectures, known as multi-homing. The FCP functions similarly to our P-NAP. We offer FCP as either a one-time hardware purchase or as a monthly subscription service. Sales of FCP also generate annual maintenance fees and professional service fees for installation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We summarize recent accounting pronouncements in note 9 to the accompanying financial statements.

Results of Operations

Revenues

We generate revenues primarily from the sale of data center services and IP services. We recognize revenue each month provided that we have entered into an enforceable contract, we have delivered the service to the customer, the fee for the service is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Our revenues typically consist of monthly recurring revenues from contracts with terms of one year or more. Data center contracts usually have fixed charges for space occupied, power utilized and cable or fiber connections. IP service contracts usually have fixed minimum commitments based on a certain level of bandwidth usage with additional charges for any usage over a specified limit. If a customer’s usage of our services exceeds the monthly minimum, we recognize revenue for such excess in the period of usage.

Direct Costs of Network, Sales and Services

Direct costs of network, sales and services are comprised primarily of:

	●	costs for connecting to and accessing network service providers and competitive local exchange providers;
	●	facility and occupancy costs, including power and utilities, for hosting and operating our and our customers’ network equipment;
	●	costs of FCP products and subscriptions sold;
	●	costs incurred for providing additional third party services to our customers; and
	●	royalties and costs of license fees for operating systems software.

To the extent a network access point is not colocated with the respective Internet service provider, we may incur additional local loop charges on a recurring basis. Connectivity costs vary depending on customer demands and pricing variables while network access point facility costs are generally fixed in nature. Direct costs of network, sales and services do not include compensation, depreciation or amortization.

Direct Costs of Customer Support

Direct costs of customer support consist primarily of compensation and other personnel costs for employees engaged in connecting customers to our network, installing customer equipment into network access point facilities and servicing customers through our network operations centers. In addition, we include facilities costs associated with the network operations centers in direct costs of customer support. This includes costs related to the servicing of our data center customers.

Direct Costs of Amortization of Acquired Technologies

Direct costs of amortization are for technologies acquired through business combinations that are an integral part of the services and products we sell. We amortize the cost of the acquired technologies over original lives of three to eight years. The carrying value of acquired technologies at June 30, 2010 was $16.4 million and the weighted average remaining life was approximately five years. The carrying value of acquired technologies at December 31, 2009 was $18.4 million.

Sales and Marketing Costs

Sales and marketing costs consist of compensation, commissions and other costs for personnel engaged in marketing, sales and field service support functions, as well as advertising, tradeshows, direct response programs, new service point launch events, management of our external web site and other promotional costs.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

General and Administrative Costs

General and administrative costs consist primarily of compensation and other expense for executive, finance, product development, human resources and administrative personnel, professional fees and other general corporate costs. General and administrative costs also include consultant fees and prototype costs related to the design, development and testing of our proprietary technology, enhancement of our network management software and development of internal systems.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Overview

Following is a summary of our results of operations and financial condition, which is followed by more in-depth discussion and analysis.

Total revenues were $60.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $3.8 million, or 6%, compared to $64.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Data center services revenues were $31.2 million and IP services revenues were $29.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, data center services revenues decreased $1.1 million, or 3%, while IP services revenues decreased $2.8 million, or 9%, compared to the same period in 2009.

Total revenues were $123.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $4.4 million, or 3%, compared to $128.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Data center services revenues were $64.9 million and IP services revenues were $59.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, data center services revenues increased $0.9 million, or 2%, while IP services revenues decreased $5.3 million, or 8%, compared to the same period in 2009.

Total operating costs and expenses, excluding goodwill impairment and restructuring disclosed separately, were $60.1 million and $70.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $123.3 million and $140.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. We experienced period-to-period increases in direct costs of customer support and depreciation and amortization, primarily from our expansion of data center space. These increases were more than offset by lower general and administrative costs and direct costs of network, sales and services, exclusive of depreciation and amortization related to IP services.

At June 30, 2010, we had $76.1 million in cash and cash equivalents and $40.4 million in debt obligations, which included $20.4 million in capital leases and $20.0 million in revolving credit facility. Net cash flows provided by operations were $23.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

The following table sets forth selected consolidated statements of operations data during the periods presented, including comparative information between the periods (dollars in thousands):

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Data Center Services

Revenues for data center services decreased $1.1 million, or 3%, to $31.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $32.3 million for the same period in 2009. However, revenues for data center services increased $0.9 million, or 2%, to $65.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $64.0 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease for the three-month period was primarily driven by our ongoing efforts to proactively churn certain less profitable customer contracts in partner data centers. The increase for the six-month period is primarily due to the generation of higher revenue per square foot from existing and new customers in our data centers, offset by our proactive churn of less profitable customer contracts in partner data centers.

Direct costs of data center services, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, decreased $4.4 million, or 18%, to $19.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $24.2 million for the same period in 2009. Direct costs of data center services, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, decreased $4.6 million, or 10%, to $42.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $47.4 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease in both periods was primarily due to our ongoing efforts to proactively churn certain less profitable customer contracts in partner data centers.

As we sell services in new company-controlled and certain partner data centers, each incremental dollar of revenue generally has higher margins as we offset more fixed costs, improving direct costs of data center services, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of revenue. We believe the demand for data center services continues to outpace industry-wide supply. Direct costs of data center services, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, have substantial fixed cost components, primarily for rent, but also significant demand-based pricing variables, such as utilities, which are highest in the summer for cooling the facilities. Direct costs of data center services as a percentage of revenues vary with the mix of usage between sites operated by us and partner sites, as well as the utilization of total available space . While we recognize some of the initial operating costs, especially rent, of sites operated by us in advance of revenues, these sites are more profitable at certain levels of utilization than the use of partner sites. Conversely, costs in partner sites are more demand-based and therefore are more closely associated with the recognition of revenues. We seek to optimize the most profitable mix of available data center space operated by us and our partners.

Revenues for IP services decreased $2.8 million, or 9%, to $29.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $32.1 million for the same period in 2009. Revenues for IP services decreased $5.3 million, or 8%, to $59.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $64.3 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease in both periods was driven by a decline in IP pricing for new and renewing customers and the loss of legacy contracts at higher effective prices, partially offset by an increase in overall traffic. IP traffic increased approximately 38% and 40% from the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, to the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, calculated based on an average over the sum of the months in the respective periods.

Direct costs of IP network, sales and services, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, decreased $0.9 million, or 8%, to $11.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $12.4 million for the same period in 2009. Direct costs of IP network, sales and services, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, decreased $2.3 million, or 9%, to $22.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $24.8 million for the same period in 2009. Connectivity costs vary based upon customer traffic volume and other demand-based pricing variables. In addition, costs for IP services are subject to ongoing negotiations for pricing and minimum commitments. As our IP traffic continues to grow, we expect to obtain lower bandwidth rates and more opportunities to proactively manage network costs, such as utilization and traffi c optimization among network service providers, which accounted for our decrease in both periods.

Other than direct costs of network, sales and services, compensation has the most pervasive impact on operating costs and expenses. We discuss compensation on an aggregate basis below followed by discussion of functional costs and expenses.

Compensation

Total compensation and benefits, including stock-based compensation, was $13.7 million and $13.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $27.4 million and $30.8 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

For the three months ended June 30, 2010, cash-based compensation and benefits decreased $0.3 million to $12.3 million from $12.6 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease was primarily attributable to credits we recorded of $1.1 million related to prior years’ Georgia Headquarters Tax Credit (“HQC”). The HQC is a state of Georgia sponsored incentive to relocate corporate headquarters to and increase associated employment in Georgia. We record the HQC when approved by the Georgia Department of Revenue and are required to apply the credit against our payroll tax liability. This credit was partially offset by an increase in commissions of $0.5 million and an increase in the 2010 bonus accrual over the prior year accrual of $0.2 million.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

For the six months ended June 30, 2010, cash-based compensation and benefits decreased $2.4 million to $25.0 million from $27.4 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease for the six-month period was primarily attributable to a benefit of $0.9 million as the result of reduced employee headcount, a $1.6 million HQC, $0.9 million related to the transition of our chief executive officer incurred in 2009 and a benefit of $0.4 million related to the reversal of a bonus accrual for the year ended December 31, 2009, offset by a $0.8 million increase in the 2010 bonus accrual and $0.8 million increase in commissions.

Stock-based compensation increased $0.1 million to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $1.3 million for the same period in 2009, and decreased $1.0 million to $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 from $3.4 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease for the six-month period was primarily attributable to a reduction of stock-based compensation expense of $0.8 million related to the transition of our chief executive officer incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2009. The following table summarizes the amount of stock-based compensation, net of estimated forfeitures, included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2010		2009		2010		2009

Direct costs of customer support	$	314	$	288	$	602	$	541
Sales and marketing		271		368		527		740
General and administrative		859		652		1,307		2,082
	$	1,444	$	1,308	$	2,436	$	3,363

We discuss additional operating expenses with the financial statement captions below.

Direct Costs of Customer Support

Direct costs of customer support increased $0.6 million, or 13%, to $5.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $4.4 million for the same period in 2009, and increased $1.5 million, or 17%, to $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 from $8.8 million for the same period in 2009. The increase for the three-month period was primarily due to a $0.7 million increase in cash-based compensation and a $0.1 million increase in employee benefits and payroll taxes, partially offset by a $0.3 million HQC. The increase for the six-month period was primarily due to a $1.3 million increase in cash-based compensation, of which $0.3 million was related to the transfer of employees from the sales and marketing support function to the customer support function as described below in “Sales and Marketing,” a $0.4 milli on increase in employee benefits and payroll taxes and a $0.3 million increase in outside professional services, offset by a $0.5 million HQC.

Direct Costs of Amortization

Direct costs of amortization of acquired technologies decreased $4.3 million, or 81%, to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $5.2 million for the same period in 2009, and decreased $4.4 million, or 69%, to $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 from $6.4 million for the same period in 2009. In conjunction with consolidating our business segments during the second quarter of 2009, we also performed an analysis of potential impairment and re-assessed the remaining asset lives of other identifiable intangible assets. The analysis and re-assessment of other identifiable intangible assets resulted in an impairment charge in the second quarter of 2009 of $4.1 million in acquired CDN technology due to a strategic change in how we manage our business.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing costs increased $0.1 million, or 1%, to $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $6.9 million for the same period in 2009 and decreased $0.6 million, or 4%, to $14.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $14.7 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease for the six-month period was primarily due to a $0.3 million decrease in non-essential sales facilities cost and a $0.3 million transfer of employees from the sales and marketing support function to the customer support function, whereby these positions were redefined and the reporting structure aligned under the customer support function.

General and Administrative

General and administrative costs decreased $2.2 million, or 20%, to $8.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $10.9 million for the same period in 2009, and decreased $7.7 million, or 32%, to $16.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $24.4 million for the same period in 2009.

The decrease for the three-month period was primarily caused by a $0.6 million HQC, a $0.6 million decrease in bad debt expense and a $1.0 million decrease in professional services.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

The decrease for the six-month period was primarily caused by a $1.1 million decrease in cash-based compensation due to a reduced employee headcount, a benefit of $1.7 million related to cash-based and stock-based compensation for the transition of our chief executive officer incurred in 2009, a $0.9 million HQC, a $0.7 million decrease in bad debt expense, a $3.5 million decrease in professional services, a benefit of $0.4 million related to the reversal of a bonus accrual for the year ended December 31, 2009, offset by a $0.8 million increase in the 2010 bonus accrual. Professional services costs were higher in the prior period due primarily to the use of consultants for finance and temporary information technology and personnel recruiting services.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization, excluding acquired technologies, increased 5% to $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2009, and increased 9% to $14.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $13.6 million for the same period in 2009. The increase was primarily due to the effects of our recent expansion of data centers and P-NAP capabilities.

Impairments and Restructurings

Impairments and restructuring for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $1.2 million and $53.7 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $1.2 million and $54.6 million, respectively. In conjunction with consolidating our business segments during the second quarter of 2009, we also performed an analysis of potential goodwill impairment. The analysis resulted in an impairment charge of $51.5 million to goodwill in our former CDN services segment, IP services segment and CDN managed servers. The restructuring charge incurred in the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 was primarily related to plan adjustments in sublease income assumptions for certain properties included in our previously disclosed 2007 and 2001 restructuring plans.

Provision for Income Taxes

We recorded a provision for income taxes of $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $0.4 million for the same period in 2009, and we recorded a provision for income taxes of $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $0.5 million for the same period in 2009. Our effective income tax rate, as a percentage of pre-tax income, for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, was (23%) and (1%), respectively. The fluctuation in the effective income tax rate was attributable to recognition of income taxes in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), permanent tax adjustment items, a change in valuation allowance and state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Net Cash from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $23.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Our net loss, after adjustments for non-cash items, generated cash from operations of $19.1 million while changes in operating assets and liabilities generated cash from operations of $4.5 million. We anticipate continuing to generate cash flows from our results of operations, adjusted for non-cash items, and managing changes in operating assets and liabilities toward a net $0 change over time. We also expect to use cash flows from operating activities to fund a portion of our capital expenditures and other requirements and to meet our other commitments and obligations, including outstanding debt, as they become due.

The primary non-cash adjustment in the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $16.7 million for depreciation and amortization, including direct costs of amortization of acquired technologies, which included the effects of the expansion of our data centers and P-NAP facilities. Non-cash adjustments also included $2.4 million for stock-based compensation expense. The changes in operating assets and liabilities included a $9.1 million increase in accounts payable primarily as a result of the upgrade and expansion of our data centers, which was offset by a $2.7 million decrease in accrued and other liabilities and deferred revenues and a $1.3 million increase in prepaid expenses, deposits and other assets. Days sales outstanding at June 30, 2010 were 28 days, down from 34 days at June 30, 2009.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $10.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Our net loss, after adjustments for non-cash items, generated cash from operations of $10.0 million, while changes in operating assets and liabilities generated cash from operations of less than $0.1 million.

Net Cash from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $24.1 million, due to capital expenditures of $28.5 million, offset by maturities of investments in marketable securities of $4.3 million. Our capital expenditures related to the continued expansion and upgrade of our data center facilities and network infrastructure.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $1.8 million, due to capital expenditures of $9.0 million, offset by maturities of investments in marketable securities of $7.2 million. Our capital expenditures were principally for the continued expansion and upgrade of our data center facilities and network infrastructure.

Net Cash from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $2.7 million, primarily due to cash received upon the exercise of stock options. We also repaid and re-borrowed $39.0 million on our revolving credit facility to manage net interest income and expense during the six months ended June 30, 2010. As a result of these activities, we had a balance of $20.0 million in notes payable. We may also utilize additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility if we consider it economically favorable to do so.

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $0.6 million, primarily due to $0.3 million for the acquisition of shares of treasury stock as payment of taxes due from employees for stock-based compensation and payments on capital leases of $0.2 million. We also repaid and re-borrowed $39.5 million on our credit agreement to manage net interest income and expense.

Liquidity

We continue to monitor and review our performance and operations in light of global economic conditions. The economic recession in 2008 and 2009 negatively impacted spending by our customers and potential customers. The current economic environment may impact the ability of our customers to meet their obligations to us, which could result in delayed collection of accounts receivable and an increase in our provision for doubtful accounts.

We monitor all of our investments in marketable securities to ensure, to the extent possible, that instability in liquidity and credit markets does not adversely impact the fair value of these investments. This monitoring resulted in transferring investments in corporate debt securities to money market accounts as the debt securities matured. We do not believe that the instability in the credit markets over the last few years has had or will have a material adverse impact on our liquidity or capital resources, although we continue to monitor these markets closely.

We expect to meet our cash requirements for the next 12 months through a combination of net cash provided by operating activities and existing cash, cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities. We may also utilize additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility, especially for capital expenditures, particularly if we consider it economically favorable to do so. Our capital requirements depend on a number of factors, including the continued market acceptance of our services and products and the ability to expand and retain our customer base. If our cash requirements vary materially from those currently expected or if we fail to generate sufficient cash flows from the sales of our services and products, we may require greater or additional financing sooner than anticipated. We can offer no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing on commercially favorable terms, or at all, and provisions in our existing revolving credit facility limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness. We believe we have sufficient cash to operate our business for the foreseeable future.

We have experienced significant impairments and operational restructurings in recent years, which included substantial changes in our senior management team, streamlining our cost structure, consolidating network access points and terminating certain non-strategic real estate leases and license arrangements. We have a history of quarterly and annual period net losses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, we had a net loss of $1.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2010, our accumulated deficit was $1.0 billion. We do not expect to incur impairment charges on a regular basis, but we cannot guarantee that we will not incur other similar charges in the future or that we will be profitable in the future. Also, we are currently in a time of uncertain economic conditions and continue to see signs of cau tious behavior from our customers. We continue to analyze our business to control our costs, principally through making process enhancements and renegotiating network contracts for more favorable pricing and terms. We may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly basis, and our failure to do so may adversely affect our business, including our ability to raise additional funds.

Short-Term Investments

Short-term investments in marketable securities at June 30, 2010 consisted of auction rate securities and corresponding rights. In October 2008, we received and subsequently accepted an offer providing us with rights (“ARS Rights”), from one of our investment providers to sell at par value auction rate securities originally purchased from the investment provider (approximately $7.2 million) at anytime during a two-year period that began June 30, 2010. The estimated fair values of our auction rate securities and the ARS Rights at June 30, 2010 were $2.7 million and $0, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, $4.3 million of our auction rate securities were called by the issuer at par value. In addition, we exercised the ARS Rights on June 30, 2010. Subsequent to June 30, 2010, we sold the remaining $2 .7 million of the auction rate securities at par value.

Credit Agreement

We have a revolving credit facility of $35.0 million with a letter of credit sublimit of $7.0 million and an option to enter into a lease financing agreement not to exceed $10.0 million. The revolving credit facility is available to finance working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

As of June 30, 2010, the revolving credit facility had an outstanding principal amount of $20.0 million due September 14, 2011, a total of $4.2 million of letters of credit issued and $10.8 million in borrowing capacity. The interest rate on the revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2010 was 3.25% based on our bank’s prime rate. In July 2010, we repaid $19.5 million of the outstanding balance.

We have made customary representations, warranties, negative and affirmative covenants to our lender (including certain financial covenants relating to a net funded debt to earnings before interest taxes, depreciation and amortization ratio, a debt service coverage ratio and a minimum liquidity requirement, as well as a prohibition against paying dividends, limitations on capital expenditures, customary events of default and certain default provisions that could result in acceleration of all outstanding amounts due under the credit facility). As of June 30, 2010, we were in compliance with these covenants.

We have pledged substantially all of our assets, including the capital stock of our domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of our foreign subsidiaries, for the obligations under the credit facility.

Capital Leases

We summarize future minimum capital lease payments together with the present value of the minimum lease payments for all capital leases as of June 30, 2010 in note 10 to the accompanying financial statements.

Commitments and Other Obligations

We have commitments and other obligations that are contractual in nature and will represent a use of cash in the future. Service commitments primarily represent purchase commitments made to our largest bandwidth vendors and payments to lease, operate and maintain data center space for resale to customers. Our ability to improve cash provided by operations in the future would be negatively impacted if we do not grow our business at a rate that would allow us to offset the service commitments with corresponding revenue growth.

The following table summarizes our credit obligations and future contractual commitments as of June 30, 2010:


	Payments Due by Period
	Total		Less than 1 Year		1 – 3 Years		3 – 5 Years		More than 5 Years
Revolving credit facility	$	21,109	$	650	$	20,459	$	—	$	—
Capital lease obligations		33,800		1,180		5,922		6,570		20,128
Operating lease commitments		184,386		12,694		51,282		50,132		70,278
Service and purchase commitments		33,580		9,213		20,446		2,896		1,025
Total	$	272,875	$	23,737	$	98,109	$	59,598	$	91,431

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Auction Rate Securities and ARS Rights

We recorded the ARS Rights as a free standing asset separate from the auction rate securities. In conjunction with our acceptance of the ARS Rights, we elected to measure the ARS Rights at fair value and we changed the investment classification of our auction rate securities to trading from available for sale. We expect that future changes in the fair value of the ARS Rights will approximate fair value movements in the related auction rate securities.

The estimated fair values of our auction rate securities and the ARS Rights at June 30, 2010 were $2.7 million and $0, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, $4.3 million of our auction rate securities were called by the issuer at par value. In addition, we exercised the ARS Rights on June 30, 2010. Subsequent to June 30, 2010, we sold the remaining $2.7 million of the auction rate securities at par value.

Other Investments

We have invested $4.1 million in Internap Japan, our joint venture with NTT-ME Corporation and NTT Holdings. We account for this investment using the equity method and to date we have recognized $2.9 million in equity-method losses, representing our proportionate share of the aggregate joint venture losses and income. The joint venture investment is subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Our objective in managing interest rate risk is to maintain favorable long-term fixed rate or a balance of fixed and variable rate debt that will lower our overall borrowing costs within reasonable risk parameters. Currently, our strategy for managing interest rate risk does not include the use of derivative securities. As of June 30, 2010, our long-term debt consisted of a revolving credit facility of $20.0 million (due September 14, 2011) with an interest rate of 3.25% based on our bank’s prime rate. We estimate that a change in the interest rate of 100 basis points would change our interest expense and payments by $0.2 million per year, assuming we maintain a comparable amount of outstanding principal throughout the year. We subsequently repaid $19.5 million on the revolving credit facility in July 2010 and plan to borrow on it f rom time-to-time, particularly if we consider it economically favorable to do so.

Foreign Currency Risk

Substantially all of our revenue is currently in U.S. dollars and from customers primarily in the U.S. We do not believe, therefore, that we currently have any significant direct foreign currency exchange rate risk.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2010.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No changes occurred in our internal controls over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We currently, and from time to time, are involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of our business. Although the amount of liability that may result from these matters cannot be ascertained, we do not currently believe that, in the aggregate, such matters will result in liabilities material to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes from the Risk Factors we previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 2, 2010.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
