Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Description of Business
National Health Partners, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized on March 10, 1989 as “Spectrum Vision Systems of Indiana, Inc.” under the laws of the State of Indiana. The Company changed its name to “National Health Partners, Inc.” on March 13, 2001.
The Company sells membership programs that encompass all aspects of healthcare, including physicians, hospitals, ancillary services, dentists, prescription drugs and vision care through a national healthcare savings network called “CARExpress.” The Company derives almost all of its revenue from the monthly membership fees it receives from its members. The Company markets its programs through a direct sales force, brokers and agents, unions and associations, chambers of commerce, and a variety of other organizations. The Company typically pays these organizations commissions on the sale price of the membership programs. These organizations typically offer and sell the Company’s membership programs on a part-time basis and may engage in other related or unrelated business activities, including selling the products or services of the Company’s competitors. The Company’s agreements with these organizations are generally for a term of one year and renew automatically for additional one-year terms unless written notice of termination is delivered by either party to the other at least 30 days prior to the then-current term.
The Company contracts with preferred provider organizations and other provider networks for access to the discounted rates they have negotiated with their healthcare providers. The principal suppliers of the healthcare providers that comprise CARExpress are CareMark, Aetna, Optum, Outlook Vision, Integrated Health, Three Rivers and HealthFi. The Company selects and utilizes only those provider networks that it believes can deliver adequate savings to its members while providing adequate support for its membership programs with the healthcare providers. The Company typically pays a per member per month fee for use of the provider networks that is determined in part based on the number of providers participating in the network, the number of members accessing the network, and the particular products or services offered by the providers. The Company’s agreements with the provider networks are generally for a term of between one and two years, may be terminated by either party on between 45 and 180 days’ prior written notice, and renew automatically for additional terms unless so terminated. Most of these agreements are non-exclusive and contain confidentiality provisions.
Note 2. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X and the related rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the disclosures included in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation (Continued)
The unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this document have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and in management’s opinion, reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2007 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, are not necessarily indicative of the results that the Company will have for any subsequent quarter or full fiscal year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The financial statements include the balances of National Health Partners, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts in the financial statements for 2007 have been reclassified to conform to the 2008 presentation. These reclassifications did not result in any change to the previously reported total assets, net loss or stockholders’ equity.
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has historically incurred significant losses, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Note 3. Significant Accounting Policies
Except as set forth below, as of June 30, 2008, the Company’s significant accounting policies and estimates, which are detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007, have not changed materially.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue consists of the monthly membership fees that it receives from the sale of its membership programs as well as any shipping and handling fees that it may receive for the shipment of membership packages to new members. The date a monthly membership begins varies for each individual member depending upon when the particular member purchased the membership. The Company recognizes the membership fees as revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery or performance has occurred, the sales price is fixed

Note 3. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Revenue Recognition (Continued)
and determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 13.A (“SAB Topic 13.A”). The fees are recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the longer of the initial contractual term or the expected period during which the services will be performed if the relationship with the member is expected to extend beyond the initial contractual term and the member continues to benefit from the payment of the fees.
The Company recognizes the monthly membership fees in accordance with SAB Topic 13.A. The contractual term for the monthly membership fees is equal to the monthly membership period. Members have the right to terminate their membership at any time and may do so at the end of each month before they pay the membership fee for the next month. The expected period during which the services will be performed in return for the monthly membership fees will never extend beyond the one-month membership period since the member will pay another monthly membership fee before the next monthly membership period begins. As a result, the Company recognizes the monthly membership fees on a straight-line basis over the contract term since the relationship with the member is not expected to extend beyond the contractual term and the member is not expected to continue to benefit from the payment of the membership fee after the contractual term has expired.
The Company recognizes the monthly membership fees in accordance with SAB Topic 13.A.3.f. The shipping and handling fees are one-time payments received by the Company from the applicable members when they first become a member. These fees are not paid repeatedly each month. The monthly contract term is, therefore, not necessarily equal to the expected period during which services will be performed since the period during which services will be performed is the average period during which each person is expected to be a member. The Company calculates the expected period during which it expects its members to remain members as of the end of each fiscal quarter. It does so by determining the total number of members that it had on such date, then dividing the total number of months for which all of such members had been a member as of that date by the number of such members. This provides the average number of months each member has been a member. The expected period during which services will be performed (i.e., the expected period during which each member will remain a member) has always exceeded the initial monthly membership period. Therefore, the Company recognizes shipping and handling fees on a straight-line basis over the expected period during which the services will be performed since the relationship with the member is expected to extend beyond the initial contractual term and the member is expected to continue to benefit from the payment of the shipping and handling fees after the initial contractual term has expired.

Note 3. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Revenue Recognition (Continued)
At the beginning of each membership period, the monthly membership fee is paid by the member and recorded as deferred revenue. The Company then recognizes revenue as the services are rendered. Shipping and handling fees that the Company receives for the shipment of membership packages to new members are included in its membership fees and recorded as deferred revenue. The Company typically receives cash within five days of the date the membership fee is charged to a member’s credit card.
The Company offers a free trial to some of its members. The Company does not recognize any membership revenue during the free-trial period. In the event the member continues the membership after the free-trial period expires, the member pays the monthly membership fee and the Company recognizes revenue as services are rendered.
The Company typically offers a 30-day money-back guarantee to its members. Members can cancel their membership during the first 30 days of their initial membership period and receive a full refund. After that, members can cancel their membership at the end of any subsequent monthly membership period. If a member cancels his or her membership and the member’s credit card has already been processed for the next monthly membership period, a refund check will be issued to the member and no revenue will be recognized for that period. The Company recognizes refunds as expense in accordance with SAB Topic 13.A.4.a and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 48, “Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists,” which permit companies to recognize refundable membership fees, net of estimated refunds, as earned revenue over the membership term in limited circumstances if the following criteria are met: (i) the estimate of cancellations and refunded revenue are being made for a large pool of homogeneous items (membership transactions with the same characteristics, such as terms, periods, class of customers, nature of services, etc.), (ii) reliable estimates of the expected refunds can be made on a timely basis and it is remote that material adjustments to previously recognized revenue would be required, (iii) there is a sufficient company-specific historical basis upon which to estimate the refunds and such historical experience is predictive of future events, and (iv) the amount of the membership fees specified in the agreement at the outset of the arrangement is fixed, other than the customer’s right to request a refund.
Note 4. Stock Compensation Expense
The Company records employee stock-based compensation using the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” using the modified prospective transition method, and records non-employee stock-based compensation expense in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting For Stock-Based Compensation” and Emerging Issues Task Force No. 96-18 “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services” (“EITF 96-18”). In accordance therewith, the Company recognized stock compensation expense of $213,225 and $129,188 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $501,036 and $418,675 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Note 5. Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the applicable period, and is calculated by dividing the reported net loss for the applicable period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. The Company calculates diluted loss per share by dividing the reported net loss for the applicable period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period as adjusted to give effect to the exercise of all potentially dilutive options and warrants outstanding at the end of the period. An aggregate of 18,739,092 and 19,372,684 shares of common stock underlying options and warrants that were outstanding on June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because they are anti-dilutive. As a result, basic loss per share was equal to diluted loss per share for each period.

Note 7. Deposits
Deposits consist of cash reserves held by merchant processors that the Company uses to process credit card transactions and the security deposit held by the lessor of the Company’s office space. Each agreement that the Company has entered into with merchant processors contains a standard provision that gives the merchant processors the right to withhold funds from the proceeds generated by the Company through the sale of its membership programs through credit card transactions. The amount of the reserves may be increased or decreased by each merchant processor at any time based on the perceived risk exposure of the merchant processor. The merchant processors are required to return the amount of funds that they withhold from the proceeds within no less than six months and no more than nine months of the date such funds were originally withheld. As a result, the Company expects to receive all such funds within six to nine months of the date such funds were originally withheld by the merchant processors.
As of June 30, 2008, the Company had a total of $418,578 in deposits. Of this amount, $173,267 was being held by Optimal Payments, Inc., $212,778 was being held by PowerPay Payment Systems, Inc., $19,000 was being held by the lessor of the Company’s office space, $12,588 was being held by PayTran Payment Systems, and the remainder was being held by other entities.

Note 12. Common Stock and Warrants
The Company’s authorized capital consisted of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, of which 47,454,356 and 32,949,106 shares of common stock were outstanding at June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Warrants exercisable into an aggregate of 9,819,092 and 12,637,684 shares of the Company’s common stock were outstanding on June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
The Company estimates the fair value of warrants issued for services on the date of grant by using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Under this model, the Company used the following weighted-average assumptions to determine the fair value of the warrants that have been issued for services: a dividend yield of zero percent, an expected volatility of 282%, a risk-free interest rate of 3.5% and a remaining contractual term of 2 years. The Company follows EITF 96-18 to recognize the fair value of warrants granted. Under EITF 96-18, the fair value of the warrants should be recognized as the services are rendered. The Company is recognizing the cost of services evenly over the term of the agreements since the services are being rendered on an ongoing basis during the term of the agreements.

The following should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements included above in Item 1 of Part I of this report.
Overview
We are a national healthcare membership organization that was formed to address the need for affordable healthcare nationwide. We create, market and sell membership programs to predominantly underserved markets in the healthcare industry through a national healthcare savings network called CARExpressTM. CARExpressTM is a network of hospitals, doctors, dentists, pharmacists and other healthcare providers comprised of over 1,000,000 healthcare providers that render their services and products to CARExpressTM members at discounted prices. CARExpressTM enables people to engage in point-of-service transactions directly with these healthcare providers and pay discounted prices to the providers.
Our membership programs offer savings on healthcare services to persons who are uninsured or underinsured by providing them with access to the same PPOs that are utilized by employers that self-fund at least a portion of their employees’ healthcare costs. Our membership programs are also used to supplement benefit plans and fill in the gaps created by the need to reduce health benefits to keep the costs of health insurance reasonable. We sell our membership programs directly through our sales force and indirectly through brokers and agents, unions and associations, small businesses and other organizations.
We are actively engaged in marketing our membership programs to the public. Our primary objective is to generate increased sales of our membership programs while expanding our position as a provider of unique healthcare membership service programs. The target market for our membership programs is comprised of individuals who have either limited health benefits or no health benefits. Our share of this market is currently less than one percent and has been less than one percent since our inception. Since we are not currently large enough to pursue and support the entire market, we intend to continue to pursue specific opportunities that we identify in this market through our various marketing and distribution channels. Through product design, competitive membership pricing, and a variety of marketing and distribution partners, we are pursuing opportunities in the healthcare market that insurance companies have not addressed.

Operational Metrics
Our revenue consists almost exclusively of recurring monthly membership fees that we receive from members of our membership programs. Our members pay us membership fees each month for the duration of their membership. The average membership fee per member per month that we receive for our CARExpressTM health discount programs is approximately $35. Approximately 95% of the CARExpressTM health discount programs that we have sold to our current members consist of our Comprehensive Care Program which is currently sold at a monthly retail price of $39.95. The remaining CARExpressTM health discount programs that we have sold to our current members consist of a mix of our less expensive programs. We do not have similar data available for our new CARExpressTM Plus membership programs since we only recently began selling them to the public.
We receive each member’s initial monthly payment and billing information at the beginning of the first monthly membership period. Monthly payments for subsequent periods are received at the beginning of the applicable period. The monthly membership fees that we receive are recognized as revenue evenly over the applicable monthly membership period. As a result, there is a delay of four weeks between the date we receive a monthly membership fee and the date we recognize the entire fee as revenue.
A key metric that we use to evaluate our success is our member retention rates. Member retention rates represent the percentage of new members that we acquire that we are able to retain for a specified period of time. Since we incur a large portion of our costs up front and receive recurring membership fees throughout the term of the membership, the longer we are able to retain the members we acquire, the greater the revenue potential of the membership programs that we sell. We believe that the key to obtaining a high member retention rate is to target our marketing campaigns towards those individuals and organizations that are most in need of our programs, most capable of paying for our programs, and most loyal to us and our programs. Member retention rates can be influenced by a variety of factors, including:
· the type of membership programs being sold;
· the marketing campaign being used to sell our membership programs;
· the financial condition and loyalty of our members;
· the distribution channel selling our membership programs; and
· the type and amount of compensation being paid to our marketing and distribution partners to sell our membership programs.
We have obtained valuable information regarding member demographics through the marketing and advertising campaigns that we have conducted and are focusing our marketing and advertising campaigns on members and member groups that we have identified as being most suitable for our membership programs. As a result, we expect our retention rates to continue to improve over the next 12 months as we pursue these opportunities through our various marketing and distribution channels.

Outlook
Our strategy is to continue to expand our position as a provider of unique healthcare membership service programs. We have implemented several strategic growth initiatives since 2006 through which we achieved new contracts and strategic partnerships with a number of marketing and distribution companies, the most recent of which involved a shift in our sales strategy from sales through marketing companies to sales through employers and “affinity groups.” An “affinity group” is a group of people who share interests, issues, and a common bond or background, and offer support for each other. Examples of the types of affinity groups that we are working with include unions, associations, chambers of commerce and small business networks. These organizations typically have a large number of members and thus, each one provides us with the opportunity to obtain a large number of sales.
We expect to generate future revenue and members primarily through sales of our CARExpressTM health discount programs and our CARExpressTM Plus membership programs to employees and members of affinity groups through our direct sales force, our marketing and distribution partners, and our various marketing and advertising campaigns. We intend to finance each of these projects through cash on hand, internally generated cash flows from operating activities and proceeds from the issuance of debt and equity securities. We will use any additional investments that we receive to accelerate the expansion of each of our advertising campaigns and programs and increase sales of our membership programs.
We expect the number of CARExpressTM members generated each month to increase for the foreseeable future. We also expect our retention rates to improve over the next 12 months as we obtain additional information regarding member demographics and target our marketing and advertising campaigns towards prospective members and member groups that are most suitable for our membership programs. As a result, we expect to begin generating a net profit from operations during 2008 as the recurring membership fees from our increasing membership base overtake the costs associated with obtaining the new members we are generating. We can provide no assurance, however, that our membership base will increase as projected, that our member retention rates will improve over the next 12 months or that we will begin generating a net profit from operations during 2008.

Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2008 and 2007
Revenue
Revenue consists almost exclusively of the monthly membership fees that we receive from members of our membership programs. Revenue decreased $297,181 to $882,016 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $1,179,197 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The decrease of $297,181 resulted primarily from a decrease in sales of our membership programs through marketing companies in connection with the shift in our sales strategy from sales through marketing companies to sales through employers and affinity groups. Approximately 30% of the revenue that we generated during the three months ended June 30, 2008 was derived from sales of our membership programs to first-time members, compared to approximately 65% during the corresponding period in 2007. The remainder of the revenue that we generated during these periods was derived from existing members. We expect revenue to increase over the next 12 months as a result of increased sales of our membership programs to employees and members of affinity groups through our direct sales force, our marketing and distribution partners, and our various marketing and advertising campaigns.
Direct Costs
Direct costs consist of sales commissions that we pay to our marketing and distribution partners and fees that we pay to our PPOs and provider networks for access to their networks. Direct costs decreased $423,338 to $233,535 for the three months ended June 30, 2008, from $656,873 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The decrease of $423,338 was due to decreases of $384,837 for sales commissions and $38,501 for PPO and network provider costs resulting from the decrease in sales of our membership programs. We expect cost of sales to increase over the next 12 months as increased sales of our membership programs result in higher overall sales commission expenses and provider networks costs.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Selling and marketing expenses consist of advertising expenses, marketing expenses, salaries and other compensation paid to employees selling and marketing our membership programs, rent expense allocated to our selling and marketing activities, depreciation and amortization expense allocated to our selling and marketing activities, and all other selling and marketing expenses incurred by us. Selling and marketing expenses increased $16,738 to $56,050 for the three months ended June 30, 2008, from $39,312 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $16,738 was due primarily to an increase of $27,960 for salaries and other compensation paid to employees selling and marketing our membership programs, partially offset by a decrease of $9,467 for depreciation and amortization expense allocated to our selling and marketing activities. We expect selling and marketing expenses to increase during the next 12 months as we grow our direct sales force and engage in larger and more frequent marketing and advertising campaigns and activities.

Table of Contents
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of employee compensation expense, professional fees and other general and administrative expenses.
Employee Compensation Expense. Employee compensation expense consists of all salaries and other cash compensation, equity-based compensation, 401(k) contributions and other compensation that we pay to our employees and the related payroll taxes that are not associated with our selling and marketing activities. Employee compensation expense increased $60,775 to $557,090 for the three months ended June 30, 2008, from $496,315 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $60,775 was due primarily to increases of $30,381 for restricted stock expense and $38,437 for stock option expense, partially offset by decreases in other employee compensation expenses. We expect employee compensation expense to increase over the next 12 months as we continue to retain additional executive management personnel and other employees in connection with the growth of our business.
Professional Fees. Professional fees consist of fees paid to our independent accountants, lawyers, technology consultants and other professionals and consultants. Professional fees increased $12,761 to $127,373 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $114,612 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $12,761 was due primarily to increases of $8,163 for the amount of expense recognized in connection with equity-based compensation paid to service providers and consultants for various services and $7,335 for legal and accounting fees, partially offset by decreases in other professional fees. We expect professional fees to increase over the next 12 months as we incur additional legal, accounting and technology fees in connection with the general expansion of our business and operations.
Other General and Administrative Expenses. Other general and administrative expenses consist of costs for supplies, computer hardware and system costs, bank service charges, filing fees and dues, non-employee customer service representative expense, rent expense, health insurance and other related benefit costs, financial printer costs, transfer agent costs, the costs of investor relations campaigns and activities, postage and delivery expenses, severance expenses, general business expenses and miscellaneous general and administrative expenses that are not associated with our selling and marketing activities. Other general and administrative expenses increased $19,715 to $289,005 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $269,290 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $19,715 resulted primarily from increases of $32,562 for bank service charges associated with new and recurring member transactions, $21,654 for computer and web repair and maintenance costs, $17,993 for business travel and entertainment costs, and $14,763 for increases in the cost of health insurance and other related benefits, as well as increases in other miscellaneous general and administrative expenses, partially offset by decreases of $50,556 for supplies and $25,107 for postage and delivery costs. We expect other general and administrative expenses to increase over the next 12 months as we continue to incur expenses for bank service charges, financial printer services, investor relations campaigns and activities, transfer agent fees, health insurance, rent, non-employee customer service representatives, supplies, computer hardware and systems, and other miscellaneous items associated with the general operation and growth of our business.

Net Loss
Our net loss decreased $8,114 to $381,002 for the three months ended June 30, 2008, from $389,116 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The decrease of $8,114 was primarily the result of a decrease of $423,338 for direct costs incurred in connection with the sale of our membership programs, partially offset by a decrease of $297,181 for revenue and increases of $16,738 for selling and marketing expenses, $60,775 for employee compensation expense, $12,761 for professional fees and $19,715 for other general and administrative expenses. We expect to begin generating a net profit from operations during 2008 as the recurring membership fees from our increasing membership base overtake the costs associated with obtaining and retaining members.
Comparison of the Six-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2008 and 2007
Revenue
Revenue decreased $519,512 to $1,704,193 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $2,223,705 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The decrease of $519,512 resulted primarily from a decrease in sales of our CARExpressTM membership programs through marketing companies in connection with the shift in our sales strategy from sales through marketing companies to sales through employers and affinity groups. Approximately 50% of the revenue that we generated during the six months ended June 30, 2008 was derived from sales of our membership programs to first-time members, compared to approximately 80% during the corresponding period in 2007. The remainder of the revenue that we generated during these periods was derived from existing members.
Direct Costs
Direct costs decreased $523,546 to $701,410 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, from $1,224,956 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The decrease of $523,546 was due to a decrease of $561,217 for sales commissions, partially offset by an increase of $37,671 for PPO and network provider costs.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Selling and marketing expenses increased $23,725 to $134,975 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, from $111,250 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $23,725 was due primarily to an increase of $36,552 for salaries as well as an increase in other compensation paid to employees selling and marketing our membership programs, partially offset by a decrease of $16,754 for depreciation and amortization expense allocated to our selling and marketing activities.

Employee Compensation Expense. Employee compensation expense increased $34,716 to $1,075,055 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, from $1,040,339 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $34,716 was due primarily to an increase of $94,730 for stock option expense as well as other employee compensation expenses, partially offset by a decrease of $73,567 for restricted stock expense.
Professional Fees. Professional fees increased $78,057 to $376,832 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $298,775 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $78,057 was due primarily to increases of $57,264 for the amount of expense recognized in connection with equity-based compensation paid to service providers and consultants for various services and $23,130 for legal and accounting fees, partially offset by decreases in other professional fees.
Other General and Administrative Expenses. Other general and administrative expenses increased $32,025 to $623,681 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $591,656 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $32,025 resulted primarily from increases of $66,486 for bank service charges associated with new and recurring member transactions, $28,796 for computer and web repairs and maintenance costs, $24,027 for business travel and entertainment costs, $16,571 for printing and reproduction costs, $12,177 for health insurance and other related benefits, $11,628 for dues and subscription costs as well as increases in other miscellaneous general and administrative expenses, partially offset by decreases of $72,830 for supplies, $31,640 for postage and delivery costs and $23,335 for corporate filing fees.
Loss on the Extinguishment of Debt
Loss on the extinguishment of debt consists of the loss that we recognized in connection with our issuance of 240,000 shares of our common stock to a note holder in February 2008 in partial consideration for the extinguishment of debt. We recognized a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $30,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2008 in connection with the issuance of these shares. We did not recognize any such loss during the six months ended June 30, 2007. We do not expect to recognize any additional gains or losses on the extinguishment of debt in the foreseeable future.
Net Loss
Our net loss increased $208,864 to $1,237,716 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, from $1,028,852 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $208,864 was primarily the result of a decrease of $519,512 for revenue, and increases of $23,725 for selling and marketing expenses, $34,716 for employee compensation expense, $78,057 for professional fees, $32,026 for other general and administrative expenses and $30,000 for the loss on the extinguishment of debt, partially offset by a decrease of $523,546 for direct costs incurred in connection with the sale of our membership programs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our inception, we have funded our operations primarily through private sales of equity securities and the use of short-term debt. As of August 11, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $615,000.

Net cash used by operating activities was $788,210 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $1,099,429 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The $311,219 decrease in cash used by operating activities was due primarily to a decrease of $196,657 for accounts receivable and increases of $82,360 for equity-based compensation expense, $260,547 for deferred revenue and $30,000 for loss on the extinguishment of debt, partially offset by an increase of $208,864 for net loss.
We did not have any cash flows from investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2008 or 2007.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $810,655 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. We did not have any cash flows from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The $810,655 increase in cash provided by financing activities was due to increases of $597,415 for proceeds from the exercise of warrants, $183,240 for proceeds from the sale of common stock and warrants and $50,000 for proceeds from the issuance of debt, partially offset by an increase of $20,000 for payments on debt.
Our primary sources of capital over the past 12 months are set forth below.
In August 2007, we sold 1,200,000 shares of common stock, one Class A warrant exercisable into 1,000,000 shares of common stock and one Class B warrant exercisable into 1,000,000 shares of common stock to an accredited investor for aggregate gross proceeds of $540,000.

During the period beginning January 1, 2007 and ending June 30, 2008, we issued 5,413,250 shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants at exercise prices ranging between $0.12 and $0.40 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $896,415.
To date, our capital needs have been met principally through the sales of our equity and debt securities and proceeds received upon the exercise of outstanding warrants by our security holders. We do not currently maintain a line of credit or term loan with any commercial bank or other financial institution. We have used the proceeds from the exercise of warrants and our private offerings of securities to pay virtually all of the costs and expenses we have incurred. These costs and expenses were comprised of operating expenses, which consisted of the employee compensation expenses, professional fees, rent expenses and other general and administrative expenses discussed above, and the costs of sales discussed above to the extent such costs of sales exceeded our revenue.
We believe that our current cash resources will not be sufficient to sustain our current operations for the next 12 months. We will need to obtain additional cash resources within the next 12 months to enable us to pay our ongoing costs and expenses as they are incurred and finance the growth of our business. We intend to obtain these funds through internally generated cash flows from operating activities and proceeds from the issuance of debt and equity securities. The sale of equity or convertible debt securities would result in additional dilution to our shareholders. The issuance of debt would result in increased expenses and could subject us to covenants that may have the effect of restricting our operations. We have not made arrangements to obtain additional financing and we can provide no assurance that additional financing will be available in an amount or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms favorable to us, we may be unable to execute upon our business plan or pay our costs and expenses as they are incurred, which could have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2008, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partners, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, that had been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.
As of June 30, 2008, we carried out the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2008, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, proces sed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief

Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with this evaluation that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
