(References to June 30, 2009 are unaudited)
(1) Summary of Accounting Policies, and Description of Business
This summary of significant accounting policies of Cadence II, LLC (Company) is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management who is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
(a) Organization and Description of Business
The Company was organized as Cadence Incorporated in March 2006 under the laws of the State of Colorado. Effective September 2006, the Company changed its name to Cadence, LLC. Effective November 2007, a new entity, Cadence II, LLC, was organized and merged with Cadence, LLC, with Cadence II, LLC being the surviving entity. As a result of the merger, the historical financial statements include the accounts and operations of Cadence II, LLC and Cadence, LLC. The Company is a privately held professional services company focused on operating support systems (“OSS”) for communication service providers (“CSP”). On August 31, 2009, Sage Interactive, Inc.(“Sage”) consummated a share exchange with the sole member of the Company, pursuant to which Sage acquired all of the membership interest in the Company in exchange for the issuance of shares of its common stock representing 92.0% of its issued and outstanding common stock (the “Share Exchange”). After the Share Exchange, its business operations consist of those of the Company.
(b) Unaudited interim financial information
The interim financial statements as of June 30, 2009, and the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal reoccurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial statements for periods presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2009 may not be indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2009. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC.
(c) Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(d) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used in measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is applicable whenever another accounting pronouncement requires or permits assets and liabilities to be measured at fair value. SFAS 157 does not expand or require any new fair value measures; however the application of this statement may change current practice. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and as a result, is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an Amendment of FASB statement No. 115” (“SFAS19”). This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis, with few exceptions. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirement to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. While the Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 159, management does not expect that it will have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

(d) Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 141 (Revised 2007), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) addresses fair value accounting and the related disclosure for assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination. SFAS 141(R) is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this standard may have on business acquisitions it may complete after September 30, 2009.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 changes the accounting and reporting for the noncontrolling interests in a subsidiary in consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 recharacterizes minority interests as noncontrolling interests and requires noncontrolling interests to be classified as a component of shareholders’ equity. SFAS 160 is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2009 and requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 160 to have a material impact on its financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of SFAS No. 133 (“SFAS 161”). This Standard requires enhanced disclosures regarding derivatives and hedging activities. SFAS 161 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2009. SFAS 161 will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In April 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (“FSP 142-3”). FSP 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS 142. FSP 142-3 is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2009. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact FSP 142-3 may have on its financial statements.
The Company periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued. Although some of these accounting standards may be applicable to the Company, the Company has not identified any other new standards that it believes merit further discussion, and the Company expects that none would have a significant impact on its financial statements.
(e) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all cash-on-hand, cash in banks and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
(f) Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable include uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms and do not bear interest.
The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by a valuation allowance for doubtful accounts that reflects management’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected resulting from past due amounts from customers. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2009, December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2009, since the total balance of accounts receivable was collected subsequent to these dates.
(g) Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,” as revised by SAB 104. As such, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title transfer has occurred or services are performed, the price is fixed or readily determinable and collectability is probable. Sales are recorded net of sales discounts.
(h) Property and Equipment
Equipment and furniture are carried at historical cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from 3 to 7 years. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance which do not materially extend the useful lives of equipment and furniture are charged to operations.
7
(i) Advertising Expense
The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. No advertising expense was incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2009 or for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
(j) Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company primarily sells its services to customers in the communications industry in the United States on an uncollateralized, open credit basis. For the years ended December 31 2008 and 2007, one customer accounted for 100% and 96% of the revenue, respectively.
Cash is maintained at financial institutions. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) currently insures accounts at each institution for up to $250,000. At times, cash balances may exceed the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000.
(k) Fair Value Determination
Financial instruments consist of cash, accounts, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term borrowings. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to their short-term nature or the current rates at which the Company could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities.
Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial statements.
(l) Long-Lived Assets
The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance withStatement of Financial Accounting Standards 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS 144). The Company’s primary long-lived assets are Goodwill and property and equipment. SFAS 144 requires a company to assess the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever events and circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable from estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. Additionally, the standard requires expected future operating losses from discontinued operations to be displayed in discontinued operations in the period(s) in which the losses are incurred, rather than as of the measurement date. No impairment charges have been recorded as of June 30, 2009. Management does not believe the Goodwill associated with its recent acquisition is impaired.
(m) Other
The Company currently has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
(2) Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Replacements and major improvements are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is provided using primarily straight line methods over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

(4) Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the net assets acquired in a business combination and is not amortized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142,Goodwill and Other IntangibleAssets.The provisions of SFAS No. 142 require that the Company allocate its goodwill to its various reporting units, determine the carrying value of those businesses, and estimate the fair value of the reporting units so that a two-step goodwill impairment test can be performed. In the first step of the goodwill impairment test, the fair value of each reporting unit is compared to its carrying value. Management reviews, on an annual basis, the carrying value of goodwill in order to determine whether impairment has occurred. Impairment is based on several factors including the Company’s projection of future discounted operating cash flows. If an impairment of the carrying value were to be indicated by this review, the Company would perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test in order to determine the amount of goodwill impairment, if any.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the period ended June 30, 2009 is as follows: (see Note 7):
| | | | | |
| Balance as of December 31, 2008 | | $ | — | |

(5) Income Taxes
No provision for income tax has been provided in the financial statements since the Company has elected to be taxed as a partnership, whereby all income or losses flow through to the partner for income tax reporting purposes. The Company is on the cash basis of accounting for income tax purposes.
(5) Commitments and Contingencies
Long-term Employee Incentive Plan
Effective May 15, 2008, the Company entered into a Long-term Employee Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to provide incentives to key employees by providing for bonus awards in connection with a sale of the Company. A sale of the Company is defined as (i) the transfer for value of all or substantially all of the outstanding equity interest in the Company, including pursuant to a merger, consolidation or other business combination transaction, or (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, in either case in a single transaction or series of related transactions. A Sale of the Company shall not include any merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar transaction in which holders of the Company’s outstanding equity securities immediately prior to such transaction own at least a majority of the equity interest in the surviving equity immediately following such transaction. In the event of a sale of the Company, a Bonus Pool shall be established for the benefit of eligible Participants based on the aggregate transaction consideration received with respect to such Sale of the Company. The Bonus Pool was an amount equal to 25% of the aggregate transaction consideration. The total number of Bonus Units authorized for issuance under this Plan was 5,000,000, and as of December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2009, there were 2,150,000 and 2,300,000 outstanding, respectively. No liability has been recorded related to these Bonus Units since payment was contingent solely on the sale of the Company. Effective August 31, 2009, the Plan was terminated pursuant to its terms and all outstanding Bonus Units were forfeited by the Plan’s participants.
Consulting Agreements
The Company has entered into a variety of consulting agreements for services to be provided to the Company in the ordinary course of business. These agreements call for various payments upon performance of services and are generally short-term.
(6) Related Party Transactions
In 2009 and 2008, the Company advanced two of its members $12,000 and $110,000, respectively for the purchase of a six week interest in a timeshare condominium in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. This property was transferred to Pat and Ann Burke as part of John McCawley’s purchase of their interest on May 26, 2009 (See footnote 7 below).
(7) Purchase of Members’ Interest
On May 26, 2009, the member interests of Pat Burke and Ann Burke totaling 51% of the company were purchased by John McCawley. The aggregate purchase price was $3,609,244 which was comprised of $661,977 in cash, $2,800,000 in a promissory note, $123,000 in property, and $24,267 estimated value in future health insurance benefits for the two members. The note is being repaid in 10 equal quarterly installments of $280,000 beginning August 26, 2009 with a maturity date of November 30, 2011. The note bears interest at Prime plus 4%. Effective January 1, 2010, the Company is required to keep a cash balance of at least $750,000.
This transaction was accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141R, Business Combinations (“SFAS 141R”).
The following table summarizes the carrying values of the assets acquired at the date of acquisition.

The excess of the purchase price over 51% of the tangible net assets (the two members’ equity accounts) was allocated to Goodwill. Accordingly, the Company recorded $2,437,177 in Goodwill as a result of the transaction.
(8) Subsequent Event
On August 31, 2009, Sage Interactive, Inc.(“Sage”) consummated a share exchange with the sole member of the Company, pursuant to which Sage acquired all of the membership interest in the Company in exchange for the issuance of shares of its common stock representing 92.0% of its issued and outstanding common stock (the “Share Exchange”). After the Share Exchange, its business operations consist of those of the Company.
