Breda also holds a promissory note to its unconsolidated affiliate, Spiralight Network, LLC, which earns interest at the rate of 8.5% per annum.

Accounts payable increased $635,068, or 74.7%, when comparing the two periods, which is mainly attributable to an increase in the amount incurred as of March 31, 2008 for the provisioning of conference bridge services, as compared to the amounts incurred for those services as of December 31, 2007. Other increased accounts payable resulted from construction projects and associated consulting fees. Accrued taxes increased $164,076, or 42.0%, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2007.
