Note 1 – Basis of Presentation:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”).SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with earlier application encouraged, but the issuance of FASB Staff Position SFAS No. 157-2 has delayed the effective date to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 as it relates to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities. Any amounts recognized upon adoption as a cumulative-effect adjustment will be recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings in the year of adoption. The adoption of SFAS 157 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,Establishing the Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities(“SFAS 159”) to permit all entities to choose to elect to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The decision whether to elect the fair value option may occur for each eligible item either on a specified election date or according to a preexisting policy for specified types of eligible items. However, that decision must also take place on a date on which criteria under SFAS 159 occurs. Finally, the decision to elect the fair value option shall be made on an instrument-by-instrument basis, except in certain circumstances. An entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS 159 applies to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted for an entity that has also elected to apply the provisions of SFAS 157. The adoption of SFAS 159 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007),Business Combinations(“SFAS 141(R)”), which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS 141(R ) applies to fiscal years beginning on or after December 18, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 141(R) on its results of operations and financial condition.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160,Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51. (“SFAS 160”) amends ARB No. 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as minority interest, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, this statement requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. SFAS 160 applies to fiscal years beginning on or after December 18, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 160 on its results of operations and financial condition.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. (“SFAS 161”) amends FASB Statement No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 133”), to amend and expand the disclosure requirements of SFAS 133 to provide greater transparency about (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedge items are accounted for under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations, and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. To meet those objectives, SFAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. SFAS 161 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 161 on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Note 3 – Series A Preferred Stock:
On August 1, 2007, the Company filed a Certificate of Designations, Powers, Preferences and Rights of the Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. Such certificate authorized and designated 290,135 shares of Series A Preferred Stock with a par value of $0.01 per share. The Series A Preferred Stock, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, has a liquidation value of $5.17 per share and is convertible into shares of Common Stock, at any time after the date of issue, at a conversion price of $5.17, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and issuances of additional shares of common stock for no consideration or for consideration that is less than the conversion price that is then in effect. The Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed at the option of the holder or by the Company under certain circumstances.
- 7 -
Each holder shall be entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock the Series A Preferred Stock could be converted into. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock accrue cumulative cash dividends at a rate of 8% per annum, compounded quarterly from the date of issuance. Payment of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock will be paid in preference to any dividend on common stock.
On August 1, 2007, the Company sold 290,135 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to “Clearlake Capital Group” (Clearlake) at a purchase price of $5.17 per share resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1,460. On August 1, 2007, the Company also entered into an agreement with Clearlake, which was later amended on September 12, 2007, allowing for the purchase by Clearlake of 7,446,809 additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which was effected by Clearlake on January 10, 2008, in connection with the acquisitions more fully described in note 11. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had accrued approximately $1,578 of preferred dividends.
Note 4 – Credit Agreement:
On August 1, 2007, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), with Clearlake as administrative agent and collateral agent, pursuant to which the Company received a $1,000 bridge loan, which was increased by $1,750 on September 14, 2007 and by an additional $750 on October 29, 2007. Interest on the loan was payable on the first business day following the end of each month, at the LIBOR rate, plus 8%. The LIBOR rate utilized for interest calculations through January 10, 2008 was 5.125%. Interest was payable in cash, except that a portion of the interest equal to 4% was payable in kind in the form of additional loans. The loan was secured by substantially all of the assets of GoAmerica and its principal subsidiaries and the stock of such principal subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement contained customary operating and financial covenants, including restrictions on the Company’s ability to pay dividends to its common stockholders, make investments, undertake affiliate transactions, and incur additional indebtedness, in addition to financial compliance requirements. On January 10, 2008, the loan was repaid in full, in the amount of $3,581, upon the closing of the Verizon TRS Division transaction described in note 11. Included in the amount paid was $50 of accrued interest expense incurred during January 2008.
Note 5 – Senior Debt:
First Lien Credit Facilities.
On January 10, 2008, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “First Lien Credit Agreement”), dated as of January 10, 2008 (the “Closing Date”), with Churchill Financial LLC, as administrative agent (the “First Lien Administrative Agent”), and Ableco Finance LLC, as collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”). The First Lien Credit Agreement provides for term loans of $40,000, all of which was borrowed on the Closing Date, and revolving loan availability of up to $15,000, none of which was borrowed on the Closing Date. The maturity date of the term loans is January 10, 2014, and the maturity date for revolving loans made from time to time is January 10, 2013. The Company is required to make quarterly repayments of principal on the term loans in the amount of $100 per quarter. Mandatory prepayments are also required to be made in the case of certain events, including asset sales, a portion of excess cash flow, proceeds from debt issuances and extraordinary receipts. Voluntary prepayments of principal of the term loans are subject to a prepayment penalty, expressed as a percentage of the principal amount so prepaid, of 2% from the Closing Date through but not including the first anniversary of the Closing Date, and 1% from the first anniversary of the Closing Date through but not including the second anniversary of the Closing Date. Mandatory prepayments are generally not subject to the payment of penalties except in the case of debt issuances, where the principal amount of term loans so prepaid is treated as though they were voluntary prepayments.
The First Lien Credit Agreement contains affirmative and restrictive covenants that require the Company to take or refrain from taking certain actions, including, among other things, the obligation to provide certain financial and other information and limitations on its ability to incur debt, make investments, pay dividends, change the nature of its business, engage in affiliate transactions, or sell assets. In addition, the Company must comply with financial covenants for maximum consolidated leverage, maximum amounts of capital expenditures, minimum amounts of net revenue, having reserves on its books relating to the earnout provisions under the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated August 1, 2007, by and between Verizon and GoAmerica Relay Services Corp., as amended, and certain amounts of revolver availability or cash and cash equivalents subject to control agreements in favor of the Collateral Agent.

Interest on the loans under the First Lien Credit Agreement is at variable rates which can be linked to LIBOR plus the applicable margin, or at a “base rate” of the higher of the U.S. prime rate quoted byThe Wall Street Journal and the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% per annum, plus the applicable margin. The interest rate increases by 2% in the case of an event of default. The applicable margin is determined as follows:
| — | during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the next date of determination after the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2008, the incremental percentage set forth in the applicable column opposite Level I in the table set forth below and; |
| — | thereafter, as of each date of determination (and until the next such date of determination), a percentage equal to the percentage set forth below in the applicable column opposite the level corresponding to the Consolidated Senior Leverage Ratio (as defined in the agreement) in effect as of the last day of the most recently ended quarter: |
| | | | | | |
LEVEL | | CONSOLIDATED SENIOR LEVERAGE RATIO | | BASE RATE LOANS | | LIBOR RATE LOANS |
I | | Greater than or equal to 3.0 to 1 | | Plus 4 .00 | | Plus 5 .00 |
II | | Greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1 and less than 3.00 to 1 | | Plus 3 .50 | | Plus 4 .50 |
III | | Less than 2.00 to 1 | | Plus 3 .25 | | Plus 4 .25 |
In accordance with the Guaranty and Security Agreement entered into by the Company and the Collateral Agent on the Closing Date, the obligations of the Company under the First Lien Credit Agreement are secured by all of the assets of the Company.
In conjunction with the First Lien Credit Agreement, the Company incurred $1,180 of fees paid to the lenders and $425 of financing fees paid to third parties. Amounts paid to the lenders are presented as debt discount and are recorded as a reduction to the debt and are amortized over the life of the debt. Fees paid to third parties are classified as deferred financing costs and are amortized over the life of the debt.
Second Lien Credit Facilities and Intercreditor Agreement.
Concurrently with entering into the First Lien Credit Agreement, the Company entered into the Second Lien Credit Agreement (the “Second Lien Credit Agreement”), dated as of the Closing Date, with the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Clearlake, as administrative agent (the “Second Lien Agent”). The Second Lien Credit Agreement provides for term loans of $30,000, all of which was borrowed on the Closing Date. The maturity date of the loans is July 10, 2015, and there are no scheduled amortization payments. Mandatory prepayments, which are not subject to prepayment penalty, are required to be made in the case of certain events, including asset sales, a portion of excess cash flow, proceeds from debt issuances and extraordinary receipts. Voluntary prepayments of principal of the loans are subject to a prepayment penalty, expressed as a percentage of the principal amount so prepaid, of 2% from the Closing Date through but not including the first anniversary of the Closing Date, and 1% from the first anniversary of the Closing Date through but not including the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date. Mandatory prepayments are generally not subject to the payment of penalties except in the case of debt issuances, where the principal amount of loans so prepaid is treated as though they were voluntary prepayments. The affirmative, negative and financial covenants in the Second Lien Credit Agreement are substantially similar to those set forth in the First Lien Credit Agreement, except that in certain circumstances they are less restrictive than those set forth in the First Lien Credit Agreement. Loans under the Second Lien Credit Agreement bear interest at LIBOR plus 9% per annum, which rate increases by 2% in the case of an event of default.
In accordance with the Second Guaranty and Security Agreement entered into by the Company and the Second Lien Agent on the Closing Date, the obligations of the Company under the Second Lien Credit Agreement are secured by all of the assets of the Company and subject to certain exceptions and limitations, and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement (referred to below).

The Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, by and among the First Lien Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Agent (the “Intercreditor Agreement”), provides for and governs, among other things, the relative priorities among the secured parties under the First Lien Obligations and the Second Lien Obligations. The Company acknowledged the Intercreditor Agreement but is not a party thereto. The following table summarizes outstanding long term debt as of June 30, 2008.
In conjunction with the Second Lien Credit Agreement, the Company incurred $1,162 of fees paid to the lenders. Amounts paid to lenders are presented as debt discount and are recorded as a reduction to the debt and are amortized over the life of the debt.

On April 8, 2008, the Company entered into a interest rate cap agreement with Bank of America, N.A. The term of the agreement is three years with an initial notional amount of $35,000 and a premium amount of $265. The agreement calls for a cap rate of 4% and a floating option of USD-LIBOR-BBA. During the three months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recognized a gain on the agreement of $241. As of June 30, 2008, $506 is recorded in other assets related to this transaction.
The terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement and the Second Lien Credit Agreement both required, among other things, that within 90 days after the Closing Date thereof, the Company would amend its certificate of incorporation to change the earliest date on which the Series A Preferred Stock is subject to redemption by the holder to a date that is at least one year after the Scheduled Term Loan Maturity Date (the “COI Amendment”).
On May 1, 2008, the parties to the Second Lien Credit Agreement entered into a First Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement which extended the 90-day deadline for the completion of the COI Amendment to 180 days and waived any Event of Default resulting from the Company’s failure to timely complete the COI Amendment.
On May 2, 2008, the parties to the First Lien Credit Agreement entered into a First Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement, which extended the 90-day deadline for the completion of the COI Amendment to 180 days and waived any Event of Default resulting from the Company’s failure to timely complete the COI Amendment.
On June 26, 2008, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to, among other things, effect the COI Amendment.

Note 6 – Earnings (Loss) Per Share:
The Company computes net loss per share under the provisions of SFAS No. 128,Earnings per Share (“SFAS 128”), and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”).
Under the provisions of SFAS 128 and SAB 98, basic loss per share is computed by dividing the Company’s net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share excludes potential common shares if the effect is anti-dilutive. Diluted loss per share is determined in the same manner as basic loss per share except that the number of shares is increased assuming exercise of dilutive stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method. As the Company had a net loss applicable to common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the impact of the assumed exercise of the stock options and warrants is anti-dilutive and as such, 9,484,424 and 425,844, respectively, of common stock equivalent shares were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Common stock equivalent shares: | | Three months ended June 30, | | Six months ended June 30, |
| | | | |
| | 2008 | | 2007 | | 2008 | | 2007 |
Options | | 2,208,597 | | 83,191 | | 1,663,160 | | 83,191 |

Note 7 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets:
The Company follows SFAS No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recognized $1,601 and $3,030, respectively, of amortization expense. Amortization expense is expected to be approximately $6,404, $6,404, $4,401, $2,171 and $1,607 for the twelve month periods ended June 30, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and thereafter, respectively.
Note 8 – Stock-based Compensation:
The Company has a stock-based compensation program that provides our Board of Directors broad discretion in creating employee equity incentives. This program includes incentive and non-statutory stock options and non-vested stock awards (also known as restricted stock) granted under various plans, the majority of which are stockholder approved. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had 2,989,575 shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under our equity compensation plan and stock purchase plan.
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 123R, requiring the recognition of expense related to the fair value of stock-based compensation awards. The Company elected to use the modified prospective transition method as permitted by SFAS 123R and, therefore, the Company did not restate our financial results for prior periods. Under this transition method, stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of, December 31, 2005, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123.
The Company also follows the guidance in EITF 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services” for equity instruments issued to consultants.
During the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company issued new stock options totaling 1,939,500 to certain employees and consultants at an exercise price ranging from $6.00 to $6.57 per share. The fair value of these options was calculated under the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
| | |
Risk free rate | | 3.34%-3.78% |
Volatility | | 43.52%-48.03% |
Expected life | | 10 years |
Dividend yield | | 0.00% |
The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock option awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. As a result of the option grants referred to above, the Company will recognize a total of $7,802 compensation expense over a service period of one to four years. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had recognized $1,216 of this expense.
In accordance with the merger agreement 220,498 Hands On stock options were exchanged for 276,246 stock options of the Company. The fair value of the Company’s options exceeded the fair value of the Hands On options by approximately $32 at January 10, 2008 under the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
| | |
Risk free rate | | 3.91% |
Volatility | | 48.03% |
Expected life | | 9.08-9.75 years |
Dividend yield | | 0.00% |
This excess value will be recognized as stock-based compensation over the remaining vesting life of the underlying options. In addition, the Company will also recognize approximately $577 of unamortized stock-based compensation which had not been recognized as of the date of exchange. As of June 30, 2008, the Company has recognized approximately $71 of these amounts as stock-based compensation.

Note 9 – Commitments and Contingencies:
Various claims and legal proceedings generally incidental to the normal course of business are pending or threatened against the Company. Although we cannot predict the outcome of these matters, in the opinion of management, any liability arising from them will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
The Company entered into several new employment agreements with certain officers and significant employees. The employment agreements provide for initial annual base salaries ranging from $185 to $275. Each employee received an option grant ranging from 70,000 to 400,000 shares. The Compensation Committee may award additional bonus payments, option grants or restricted stock awards in its discretion. In the event of termination without cause or resignation for good reason (as each such term is defined in the agreements), certain severed individual shall be entitled to receive enhanced severance, in an amount equal to one year’s base salary, as well as the right to continue in Company health and welfare benefit plans for one year after termination and 90 days’ outplacement services at a level commensurate with their position. In the event of a change of control of the Company, as defined in certain executive employment agreements, 25% of the Executives’ then-unvested stock options shall immediately vest. In addition, after a change of control of the Company, all remaining unvested stock of an Executive shall immediately vest if (a) such Executive’s aggregate compensation is substantially diminished, or (b) such Executive is required to relocate more than 100 miles from their then-current residence in order to continue to perform his duties. Each agreement also provides for a $1 per month expense allowances and reimbursement for additional business travel and entertainment expenses incurred in connection with their duties.
In conjunction with the acquisition of Hands On, the Company assumed operating leases with future minimum lease payments totaling approximately $6,775. These leases have various expiration dates from 2009 to 2013.
In connection with the Verizon acquisition, the Company entered into a Managed Services Agreement (“MSA”), dated August 1, 2007, with Stellar Nordia Services LLC (“Stellar Nordia”). Under that agreement, Stellar Nordia assumed facilities, employee and operational responsibilities for the two primary call centers associated with Verizon’s TRS Division business. Stellar Nordia will provide inbound call relay services to the Company, utilizing Stellar Nordia’s proprietary platform and software for the newly acquired traffic from Verizon and for the Company’s existing text traffic. In addition, pursuant to a related agreement, Stellar Nordia has, as subcontractor to the Company, assumed and operates under the Company’s supervision, the call centers acquired under the asset purchase agreement for Verizon’s TRS Division as well as the current, pre-acquisition traffic of the Company. The Company expects to realize material cost savings as compared to Verizon from utilizing the Stellar Nordia arrangement described in this paragraph.
- 14 -
The MSA also provides that Stellar Nordia undertake capital expenditures and hiring in preparation for the Verizon TRS acquisition, such that Stellar Nordia would be in a position to service existing Verizon TRS Division traffic upon consummation of the closing. The MSA obligates the Company to pay certain fees to Stellar Nordia if the Company elects to terminate the MSA early.
The MSA replaced the Company’s existing agreement with Stellar Nordia upon the closing of the acquisition of Verizon’s TRS Division. Under the new agreement, provided that one or more of the state contracts are in effect, the Company has agreed to provide Stellar Nordia with rolling forecasts of its IP relay traffic demand forecasts, and has agreed to certain minimum call traffic commitments with financial penalties for failure to achieve either the traffic forecasts or the call traffic commitments as to such state contracts. The Company has agreed to pay Stellar Nordia monthly and Stellar Nordia has agreed to bill the Company in U.S. dollars. The Company agreed to reimburse Stellar Nordia for costs incurred in connection with their assuming the workforce, facilities and operational responsibilities for the two primary call centers associated with Verizon’s TRS Division business in an amount not to exceed $5.5 million, paid in sixteen quarterly payments. Since the conditions of this agreement were a requirement of Verizon as a condition of sale, the Company considers these payments to be contingent consideration of the Verizon TRS division consideration in accordance with SFAS No. 141,Business Combinations. As of June 30, 2008 the Company has included approximately $687 in the purchase price and will continue to include additional amounts as they are incurred or become measurable.
Note 10 – Settlement of Hands On Litigation:
On May 2, 2005, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Hands On Video Relay Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Hands On Sign Language Services, Inc., a California corporation (collectively, the “Hands On Entities”). Pursuant to that agreement, all amounts that the Company advanced to Hands On were secured, initially, by the assets acquired with such funds with interest at a defined prime rate. On July 6, 2005, the Company entered into a merger agreement with the Hands On Entities and their principal stockholders (collectively, “Hands On”).
On March 1, 2006, the Company announced its receipt of a letter from Hands On in which Hands On purportedly terminated the merger agreement among the parties. Subsequent discussions between the parties did not provide a basis to pursue the merger. Hands On stockholders had approved the proposed merger with GoAmerica at special Hands On stockholder meetings held on February 22, 2006. A Special Meeting of GoAmerica Stockholders relating to the Company’s proposed merger with Hands On was scheduled for March 13, 2006, adjourned from February 27, 2006 in order to allow GoAmerica to achieve a quorum with respect to the Special Meeting. As of March 6, 2006, the Company had achieved a quorum and received votes overwhelmingly in favor of the Hands On merger. On March 7, 2006, the Company announced its cancellation of its Special Meeting of Stockholders and its determination not to pursue its proposed merger with Hands On. As a result of the merger agreement termination, Hands On’s repayment obligations under the loan agreement began July 1, 2006. After the Company received all such payments due through September 30, 2006, Hands On ceased making payments due leaving an outstanding receivable of $562 at December 31, 2006.
Hands On had indicated that it did not intend to make any more payments to the Company under the existing terms of the loan agreement and that Hands On was attempting to restructure its debts and raise new capital. In December 2006, the Company commenced litigation against Hands On, seeking recovery of its loan receivable.
In April 2007, the Company executed a settlement agreement and mutual release related to its litigation with Hands On in exchange for an immediate $400 cash payment, termination of litigation, mutual release of all loan- and merger-related claims (asserted and otherwise), and other consideration and recorded a settlement loss of $162.
On January 10, 2008, the Company acquired Hands On. (see note 11)
Note 11 – Acquisitions:
Verizon TRS Division acquisition:
On January 10, 2008, in an effort to increase its volume and improve its results of operations, the Company acquired the assets of Verizon’s TRS Division for $46 million in cash, including acquired working capital of $6 million. The Verizon acquisition was financed through $40 million of committed senior debt financing funded by the First Lien Administrative Agent and $33.5 million of equity financing, funded by funds managed by Clearlake (Clearlake purchased an additional 6,479,691 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a price of $5.17 per share). The Company could be liable for up to an additional $8 million in contingent cash consideration under certain circumstances.

The purchase price has been determined as follows:
| | | | |
Cash consideration | | $ | 46,000 | |
Transaction costs | | | 5,639 | |
| |
| | | | |
Total purchase consideration and transaction costs | | | 51,639 | |
Acquired working capital | | | (6,000 | ) |
| |
| | | | |
Total purchase price | | $ | 45,639 | |
| |
| | | | |
Under the purchase method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to net tangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values as of the date of the completion of the acquisition. Based upon preliminary valuation reports, the Company recorded identified intangible assets. The fair value assigned to the identified intangible assets and goodwill are as follows:
| | | |
Trademarks | | $ | 19,500 |
Customer lists | | | 12,500 |
Goodwill | | | 13,639 |
| |
| | | |
Fair value of assets acquired | | $ | 45,639 |
| |
| | | |
The fair value of these assets is subject to modification as additional information may come to management’s attention and restructuring decisions are made. Goodwill and trademarks are not amortized for financial reporting purposes, however, the amount will be amortized over a 15 year life for income tax purposes.
In connection with the Verizon acquisition, the Company entered into a Managed Services Agreement, dated August 1, 2007, with Stellar Nordia. (see note 9)
Hands On acquisition:
On January 10, 2008, in an effort to increase its volume and improve its results of operations, the Company acquired Hands On for $35 million in cash and approximately 6,700,000 shares of its common stock. The cash portion of the consideration was funded by the sale of 967,118 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, at a price of $5.17 per share, to a fund managed by Clearlake and the issuance of $30 million in second lien new debt (see note 5).
In accordance with the merger agreement 220,498 Hands On stock options were exchanged for 276,246 stock options of the Company (see note 8).
The purchase price has been determined as follows:
| | | |
Cash consideration | | $ | 32,282 |
Common shares issued | | | 34,621 |
Transaction costs | | | 6,435 |
| |
| | | |
Total purchase price | | $ | 73,338 |
- 16 -
Under the purchase method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to net tangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values as of the date of the completion of the acquisition. Based upon preliminary valuation reports, the Company recorded identified intangible assets. The fair values assigned to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, identified intangible assets and goodwill are as follows:
| | | | |
Cash | | $ | 2,635 | |
Other current assets | | | 7,356 | |
Property, plant and equipment | | | 3,519 | |
Long term assets | | | 187 | |
Current liabilities | | | (8,845 | ) |
Long term liabilities | | | (2,685 | ) |
Trademarks | | | 18,300 | |
Customer lists | | | 10,300 | |
Technology | | | 1,016 | |
Goodwill | | | 41,555 | |
| |
| | | | |
Fair value of net assets acquired | | $ | 73,338 | |
| |
| | | | |
The fair value of these assets and liabilities assumed is subject to modification as additional information may come to management’s attention and restructuring decisions are made. As such, amounts previously reported as trademarks were increased by $11,900 with a corresponding reduction to previously reported goodwill based on revisions made to the valuation report.
In conjunction with the closing of the Hands On acquisition, the Company assumed certain outstanding operating and capital lease agreements in force on the date of closing. (see note 9)
To create additional flexibility to pursue strategic opportunities, the Company has also secured a $15 million unfunded credit revolver which creates additional liquidity for the Company as needed.
The following unaudited pro forma summary presents the combined results of operations as if the Verizon and Hands On acquisitions described above had occurred as of January 1, 2007, and does not purport to be indicative of the results that would have occurred had the transactions been completed as of that date or of results that may occur in the future.

Note 12 – Income Taxes:
The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”), on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
Based on the Company’s evaluation, we have concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our financial statements or adjustments to our deferred tax assets and related valuation allowance. The evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of June 30, 2008.
The Company may from time to time be assessed interest or penalties by major tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to our financial results. In the event the Company may have received an assessment for interest and/or penalties, it has been classified in the financial statements as selling, general and administrative expense.
The Company has federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $181,500 and $129,400, respectively. The federal NOL carryforwards expire beginning in 2011 and state NOL’s beginning in 2008. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 enacted a complex set of rules limiting the potential utilization of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards in periods following a corporate “ownership change.” In general, for federal income tax purposes, an ownership change is deemed to occur if the percentage of stock of a loss corporation owned (actually, constructively and, in some cases, deemed) by one or more “5% stockholders” has increased by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage of such stock owned during a three-year testing period. The Company believes that an ownership change has occurred with respect to the transactions described in note 11. The effect of an ownership change would be the imposition of an annual limitation on the use of net operating loss carryforwards attributable to periods before the change. The Company has not performed a detailed analysis to determine the amount of the potential limitations.
Note 13 – Related Party Transactions:
The Company entered into certain additional financing and equity agreements with Clearlake as a result of the transactions described in notes 5 and 11. On January 10, 2008, all outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement with Clearlake (more fully described in note 4) were repaid in full. The Company paid Clearlake approximately $1,879 of interest during the six months ended June 30, 2008. In addition, the Company has recorded amounts payable to Clearlake in the amount of $124 related to consulting arrangements costs incurred. Clearlake reserves the right to purchase additional shares of the Company’s common stock on the open market.

| ¡ | provided for a reduction in the rate of dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock from 8% per year to 3% per year if the average closing price of the common stock is $20.00 or more per share over a 90-day period at any time one year or more after completion of the Hands On merger. |
| — | | Received approval from shareholders at its annual stockholder meeting held on June 25, 2008 to increase the number of options available under approved amendments to GoAmerica’s 2005 Equity Incentive Plan from 2,000,000 to 3,000,000 shares, and to increase the maximum number of shares subject to award to any individual during any calendar year. |
In June 2008, the Company filed a Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware. The amendment along with related Bylaw amendments, include provisions that:
| — | | Change the earliest date on which our Series A Preferred Stock is subject to redemption at the option of the holder to a date that is a least one year after the “Scheduled Term Loan Maturity Date,” as defined in our loan agreements, and |
| — | | Allow our stockholders to take action by written consent in lieu of a meeting. |

In accordance with the merger agreement with VLI, the Company will issue options to purchase 98,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to certain employees of VLI and SLA as part of their employment compensation for their future services to be rendered for the Company. The issuance of these options is subject to approval by the Company’s Compensation Committee, which will also set certain terms of the grants, including the exercise price.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
General
GoAmerica® is a communications service provider, offering solutions primarily for consumers who are deaf, hard of hearing and/or speech impaired, including Internet relay services, interpreting services, wireless subscription and value added services, and wireless devices and accessories. On January 10, 2008, the Company acquired (1) certain assets of the Telecommunications Relay Services (“TRS”) division of MCI Communications Services, Inc. (“Verizon”), a leading provider of relay services transactions, and (2) Hands On Video Relay Services, Inc., a California-based provider of video relay and interpreting services. On July 1, 2008, the Company acquired Sign Language Associates, Inc., a District of Columbia corporation, (SLA) and Visual Language Interpreting, Inc., a Virginia corporation (VLI). Our i711.com™ telecommunications relay service was launched in March 2005 and enables people who are deaf or hard of hearing to call and “converse” with hearing parties by using a computer, wireless handheld device or similar unit, through an operator that interprets text to voice and vice versa. In addition, during December 2006, we began offering our i711 Video Relay Service (VRS), the newest member of the i711.com™ family of relay services. i711 VRS enables people who are deaf to use sign language to communicate with hearing people using a Windows computer, a web camera, and a broadband Internet connection. We sell wireless devices and services directly to customers and indirectly through sub-dealers. We have dealer agreements through which we sell devices and earn a commission, also called a bounty, upon activation of the device with an associated service rate plan.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts and note receivable, accounting for derivatives and recoverability of our goodwill and other intangible assets. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. We derive our revenue primarily from relay services. Revenue from relay services is recognized as revenue when services are provided or earned. Revenue from interpreting services is recognized as revenue when services are provided or earned. Revenue from commissions is recognized upon activation of subscribers on behalf of third party wireless network providers. Subscriber revenue consists primarily of monthly charges for access and usage and is recognized as the services are provided. Equipment revenue is recognized upon shipment to the end user. We estimate the collectability of our trade and note receivables. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the ultimate realization of these receivables, including analysis of historical collection rates and the current credit-worthiness of significant customers. Significant changes in required reserves have been recorded in recent periods and may occur in the future due to current market conditions. In assessing the recoverability of our goodwill, other intangibles and other long-lived assets, we must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows. If such assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges for these assets not previously recorded.

Three months ended June 30, 2008 Compared to Three months ended June 30, 2007
Relay services revenue. Relay services revenue increased 679%, to $29,861 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $3,834 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This increase was primarily due to (i) the January 10, 2008 acquisition of certain assets of the Verizon TRS Division and of Hands On, and (ii) the growth in relay service volumes and continuing operational improvements. Our video relay service revenue increased to $16,555 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $403 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Video relay service revenue represented approximately 55% of total relay service revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to 11% percent of relay service revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Telecommunications relay service revenue increased to $13,306 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $3,431 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Telecommunications relay service revenue represented approximately 45% of total relay service revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to 89% percent of total relay service revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2007. We expect relay services revenue to increase as we expand our user base for both our video and telecommunication relay services.
Interpreting services revenue. Interpreting services revenue was $627 for the three months ended June 30, 2008. This consisted of certified sign language interpreters providing interpreting services in situations where relay services may not be available or ideal. This increase was due to our January 10, 2008 acquisition of Hands On. There was no such corresponding revenue in 2007. We expect interpreting services revenue to increase as we expand our customer base for these services through our July 1, 2008 acquisitions of SLA and VLI referred to above.
- 23 -
Included in other revenue are the four components listed immediately below:
Commission revenue. Commission revenue decreased to $60 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $74 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease primarily was due to decreased acquisition of subscribers on behalf of wireless network providers through our indirect distribution channel. We expect commission revenue to decrease as we do not intend to concentrate marketing efforts on activities to acquire subscribers on behalf of various wireless network providers.
Subscriber revenue. Subscriber revenue decreased to $66 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $284 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease was primarily due to decreases in our full service offering subscriber base. We expect subscriber revenues to decline further as we do not intend to concentrate marketing efforts on these services.
Equipment revenue. Equipment revenue decreased to $27 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $111 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease was primarily due to higher sales of mobile devices. We expect equipment revenue to decrease further as we do not intend to concentrate marketing efforts on activities to acquire subscribers on behalf of various wireless network providers.
Other revenue. Other revenue increased to $8 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $2 for the three months ended June 30, 2007.
Cost of relay services revenue. Cost of relay services revenue increased 519%, to $16,528 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $2,670 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This increase was primarily due to our January 10, 2008 acquisition of certain assets of Verizon’s TRS Division and of Hands On. Our cost of video relay service revenue increased to $10,470 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $264 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and our cost of telecommunications relay service revenue increased to $6,058 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $2,406 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. We expect cost of relay services revenue to increase as we expand our user base for both our video and telecommunication relay services.
Cost of interpreting services revenue. Cost of interpreting services revenue was $681 for the three months ended June 30, 2008. This increase was due to our January 10, 2008 acquisition of Hands On Video Relay Services, Inc., a California-based provider of video relay and interpreting services. There was no such corresponding cost in 2007. We expect cost of interpreting services revenue to increase as we expand our customer base for these services through our July 1, 2008 acquisitions of SLA and VLI referred to above.
Included in cost of other revenue are the three components listed immediately below:
Cost of subscriber revenue. Cost of subscriber airtime decreased to $69 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $257 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease was primarily due to decreases in our full service offering subscriber base. We expect cost of subscriber revenues to decline further as we do not intend to concentrate marketing efforts on these services.
Cost of network operations. Cost of network operations increased to $39 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $29 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. We expect our cost of network operations to decline as a percentage of sales.
Cost of equipment revenue. Cost of equipment revenue decreased to $134 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $190 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease was primarily due to higher sales of mobile devices. We expect cost of equipment revenue to decrease further as we do not intend to concentrate marketing efforts on activities to acquire subscribers on behalf of various wireless network providers.
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased to $3,531 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $479 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This increase primarily was due to our January 10, 2008 acquisitions described above. We expect sales and marketing expenses to increase as a percentage of sales as we continue to introduce new products and services to the consumer marketplace.
- 24 -
General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased to $6,108 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $1,257 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This increase primarily was due to our January 10, 2008 acquisitions of Verizon’s TRS Division and of Hands On, including $768 in stock-based compensation related to the assumption of Hands On options, the accelerated vesting of previously granted restricted stock and new stock option grants. In addition, professional service fees increased by approximately $566 and salaries and benefits for personnel performing business development and general corporate activities increased by approximately $822. We expect general and administrative expenses to decline as a percentage of revenue as our revenues increase.
Research and development. Research and development expense increased to $565 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $143 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This increase was primarily due to increased salaries and benefits for personnel performing development activities. We expect research and development expenses to increase as we continue to develop and maintain our relay technologies.
Amortization of intangible assets. We recorded amortization of intangible assets of $1,601 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 related to amortization of identified intangible assets resulting from our January 10, 2008 acquisition of certain assets of Verizon’s TRS Division and of Hands On.
Gain on interest rate cap agreement. We recognized a gain of $241 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 related to a interest rate cap agreement with Bank of America, N.A. There was no corresponding amount in 2007. We expect gain on interest rate cap agreement to fluctuate as we record changes in the fair market value of the instrument.
Interest income (expense), net. We incurred net interest expense of $1,608 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to net interest income of $24 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This increase was due to interest expense incurred in connection with the debt raised by the Company to partially fund our January 10, 2008 acquisitions of Verizon’s TRS Division and of Hands On and was partially offset by interest income on short-term investments and existing cash balances. We expect net interest expense to continue at approximately current levels (subject to changes in interest rates).
Six months ended June 30, 2008 Compared to Six months ended June 30, 2007
Relay services revenue. Relay services revenue increased 670%, to $57,704 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $7,494 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. This increase was primarily due to our January 10, 2008 acquisition of certain assets of the Verizon’s TRS Division and of Hands On. Our video relay service revenue was $30,947 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, and represented approximately 54% of total relay service revenue.

On January 10, 2008, the Company acquired the assets of Verizon’s TRS Division for $46 million in cash and up to an additional $8 million in contingent cash consideration. The Verizon acquisition was financed through $40 million of committed senior debt financing funded by the First Lien Administrative Agent and $33.5 million of equity financing, funded by funds managed by Clearlake. Clearlake purchased an additional 6,479,691 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a price of $5.17 per share.
On January 10, 2008, the Company acquired Hands On for $35 million in cash and approximately 6,700,000 shares of its common stock. The cash portion of the consideration was funded by the sale of 967,118 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, at a price of $5.17 per share, to a fund managed by Clearlake and the issuance of $30 million in second lien debt.
Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $8,916 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, principally resulting from our operating profit and changes in our operating assets and liabilities.
We used $5,048 in cash from investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2008. Cash used in investing activities was principally for deferred acquisition fees and the purchases of property, equipment and leasehold improvements.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $18,174 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, which resulted from the issuance of preferred stock and debt as part of our January 10, 2008 acquisitions described above.
As of June 30, 2008, our principal commitments consisted of obligations outstanding under operating leases. As of June 30, 2008, future minimum payments for non-cancelable operating leases having terms in excess of one year amounted to $9,270, of which approximately $2,611 is payable in the next twelve months.

Employment Agreements
Effective with the January 10, 2008 closing of the transactions referred to above there were changes to our acquisition of the Verizon TRS Division and our merger with Hands On as described above, the following changes were made to the employment arrangements with two of the Company’s executive officers:
| — | Donald G. Barnhart’s prior employment agreement was superseded by an Agreement Regarding Basic Terms of Employment (the “Superseding Employment Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Barnhart will serve the Company as Senior Vice President, Accounting, at a base annual salary of $185. The Superseding Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Barnhart will serve on an at will basis, without a specific term of employment. He will be eligible to receive a bonus, and will receive an option grant of 70,000 shares. The options will vest at the rate of one-forty-eighth of such shares per month, provided Mr. Barnhart remains employed with the Company on each vesting date. If Mr. Barnhart’s employment is terminated without Cause or for Good Reason (in each case as defined in the Superseding Employment Agreement), Mr. Barnhart will be entitled to receive 12 months severance. |
| — | Jesse Odom’s prior employment agreement was superseded by an Agreement Regarding Basic Terms of Employment (the “Second Superseding Employment Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Odom will serve the Company as Senior Vice President, Technology, at a base annual salary of $200. The Second Superseding Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Odom will serve on an at will basis, without a specific term of employment. He will be eligible to receive a bonus, and will receive an option grant of 100,000 shares. The options will vest at the rate of one-forty-eighth of such shares per month, provided Mr. Odom remains employed with the Company on each vesting date. If Mr. Odom’s employment is terminated without Cause or for Good Reason (in each case as defined in the Superseding Employment Agreement), Mr. Odom will be entitled to receive 12 months severance. Effective July 18, 2008, Mr. Odom resigned his position as Vice President, Technology, and his employment with the Company terminated, Mr. Odom will continue to provide services as a consultant until September 30, 2008, at which time the parties may elect to continue consulting services; upon the cessation of his consulting term, Mr. Odom will receive 12 months of severance. During Mr. Odom’s consultancy period, his outstanding options shall continue to vest. |
On March 20, 2008, the Company entered into new employment agreements with Daniel R. Luis, its Chief Executive Officer, and with Edmond Routhier, its President and Vice Chairman of the Board (collectively, the “Executives”). Each employment agreement is substantially the same. The employment agreements provide that both Executives are to receive an initial base salary of $275. Each executive received an option grant of 400,000 shares. The Compensation Committee may award one or both Executives additional bonus payments, option grants or restricted stock awards in its discretion. The agreements are each of indefinite term; each such agreement provides for an annual salary review, at which time the salaries paid under such agreements may be increased (but not decreased) in the discretion of the Compensation Committee. In the event that either Executive is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason (as each such term is defined in the agreements), he shall be entitled to receive enhanced severance, in an amount equal to one year’s base salary, as well as the right to continue in Company health and welfare benefit plans for one year after termination and 90 days’ outplacement services at a level commensurate with his position. In the event of a change of control of the Company, as defined in the employment agreements, 25% of the Executives’ then-unvested stock options shall immediately vest. In addition, after a change of control of the Company, all remaining unvested stock of either Executive shall immediately vest if (a) such Executive’s aggregate compensation is substantially diminished, or (b) such Executive is required to relocate more than 100 miles from his then-current residence in order to continue to perform his duties. Each Executive also receives a $1 per month expense allowances and is reimbursed for additional business travel and entertainment expenses incurred in connection with their duties. Each employment agreement also contains certain confidentiality provisions and requires that the Company maintain standard directors and officers insurance in the same amount as the Company maintains for other directors and officers. On May 2, 2008, the Board granted Mr. Luis an additional option grant of 50,000 shares at an exercise price of $6.11 per share. Such option vests in 48 equal monthly installments, commencing on the date of grant and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter.

On April 1, 2008, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with John R. Ferron, who was appointed as its Chief Operating Officer on that same date. Until June 2, 2008, Mr. Ferron was employed on a part-time basis as the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, and after June 2, 2008, Mr. Ferron was employed on a full-time basis as the Company’s Chief Operating Officer and as its Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Ferron will receive an annual base salary of $130 during the period of his part-time employment, and thereafter will receive an annual base salary of $260. Upon commencement of his employment, Mr. Ferron also received a cash bonus of $40. On April 2, 2008, Mr. Ferron was granted an option to purchase 275,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share pursuant to the Company’s 2005 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”). Such option vests in 48 equal monthly installments, commencing on the date of grant and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter. The Compensation Committee also may make additional option grants or restricted stock awards to Mr. Ferron in its discretion from time to time. Mr. Ferron’s Employment Agreement provides for his employment by the Company on an “at will” basis, and may be terminated by the Company at any time, subject to its obligation to provide severance benefits under certain circumstances as described below. If Mr. Ferron is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason (as each such term is defined in the Employment Agreement), he will be entitled to receive enhanced severance, in an amount equal to one year’s base salary, as well as the right to continue in Company health and welfare benefit plans for one year after termination and 90 days’ outplacement services at a level commensurate with his position. In the event of a change of control of the Company (as defined in the Employment Agreement), 25% of Mr. Ferron’s then-unvested stock options shall immediately vest. In addition, after a change of control of the Company, all remaining unvested stock of Mr. Ferron shall immediately vest if (a) Mr. Ferron’s aggregate compensation is substantially diminished, or (b) Mr. Ferron is required to perform the majority of his obligations under the Employment Agreement from an office located more than 100 miles from Los Gatos, California (where he currently resides and intends to establish a small Company office).

The employment agreement also contains certain confidentiality provisions and requires that the Company maintain standard directors and officers insurance covering Mr. Ferron in the same amount as the Company maintains for other directors and officers.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”).SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with earlier application encouraged, but the issuance of FASB Staff Position SFAS No. 157-2 has delayed the effective date to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 as it relates to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities. Any amounts recognized upon adoption as a cumulative effect adjustment will be recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings in the year of adoption. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “Establishing the Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities” to permit all entities to choose to elect to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The decision whether to elect the fair value option may occur for each eligible item either on a specified election date or according to a preexisting policy for specified types of eligible items. However, that decision must also take place on a date on which criteria under SFAS 159 occurs. Finally, the decision to elect the fair value option shall be made on an instrument-by-instrument basis, except in certain circumstances. An entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 applies to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted for an entity that has also elected to apply the provisions of SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements. The adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141 (revised 2007),Business Combinations(“SFAS 141(R)”), which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS 141(R ) applies to fiscal years beginning on or after December 18, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 141(R) on its results of operations and financial condition.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160 ,Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51. SFAS 160 amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as minority interest, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, this statement requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. SFAS 160 applies to fiscal years beginning on or after December 18, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 160 on its results of operations and financial condition.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. SFAS 161 amends SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” to amend and expand the disclosure requirements of SFAS 133 to provided greater transparency about (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedge items are accounted for under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations, and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. To meet those objectives, SFAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. SFAS 161 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 161 on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We believe that we have limited exposure to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. At June 30, 2008, all of our available excess funds are cash or cash equivalents. The value of our cash and cash equivalents is not materially affected by changes in interest rates. A hypothetical change in interest rates of 1.0% would result in an annual change in our net income of approximately $244,000 based on cash and cash equivalent balances at June 30, 2008.

On April 8, 2008, the Company entered into a interest rate cap agreement with Bank of America, N.A. The term of the agreement is three years with an initial notional amount of $35,000. The agreement calls for a cap rate of 4% and a floating option of USD-LIBOR-BBA. A hypothetical change in USD-LIBOR-BBA interest rates of 1.0% above the cap could result in a decrease in the fair market value of the derivative of $350.
We currently do not earn foreign-source income.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
As of the end of the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter (the registrant’s fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Changes in internal controls.
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
