1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company

360networks Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Company) provide fiber optic network communications products and related services to both telecommunication carriers and commercial enterprises. The Company provides these services primarily in the western United States and prior to November 19, 2004, in Canada.

In June 2001, the Company’s former parent company, 360networks, Inc., and certain of its subsidiaries voluntarily filed for creditors protection under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) (CCAA) in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, Canada, or under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In November 2002, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries successfully completed their financial restructuring in Canada and the United States and emerged from creditor protection.

As of November 12, 2002, the Company adopted fresh-start reporting pursuant to the guidance provided by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. In connection with the adoption of fresh-start reporting, a new entity was created for financial reporting purposes. The effective date of the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy protection is considered to be the close of business on November 11, 2002, for financial reporting purposes.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. These consolidated financial statements also include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and its results of operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses for the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Examples of significant estimates and assumptions are the estimated useful lives of assets, the recoverability of tangible assets, the composition of deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities, the accruals for payroll and other employee-related liabilities, the accruals for restructuring and workforce reduction costs, the fair values applicable to asset retirement obligations and the fair values used to allocate the acquisition costs applicable to the assets and liabilities acquired.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on deposit and highly liquid short-term interest bearing securities with terms at the date of purchase of three months or less, which are generally held to maturity.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect on outstanding balances. Receivables from customers are due 30 days after issuance of the invoice. Delinquent accounts are charged to the receivable provision when it is determined that the account will not be collected and the account is sent to collection. The final determination of the account’s status is made at a minimum of 45 days past due. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a provision for bad debts and an allowance for doubtful accounts based on its assessment of the current status of the accounts.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash represents cash applicable to letters of credit, cash held in escrow, and other deposits.

Investments

The Company’s policy for investment securities is as follows:

Securities available for sale: Securities not classified as held to maturity or trading are classified as available for sale. Available for sale securities are stated at fair value, with any unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Trading securities: Trading securities consist of debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling in the near term and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. The Company did not hold any trading securities during 2010 or 2009.

Securities held to maturity: Debt securities for which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity. Held to maturity securities are stated at amortized cost. The Company did not hold any held to maturity securities during 2010 or 2009.

Property and equipment

Fiber optic network assets constructed for the Company’s own use are recorded at cost, which includes direct expenditures on materials and labor and an allocation of indirect costs and interest. Acquired network assets, including the use of dark fiber and conduit under indefeasible rights of use (IRU), are recorded at cost. Other property and equipment is recorded at cost.

Property and equipment are depreciated using the following rates and methods:

• Fiber optic network assets — straight-line basis ranging from 20 to 25 years.

• Operating equipment — straight-line basis ranging from 2 to 10 years.

• Buildings — straight-line basis ranging from 15 to 20 years.

• Leasehold improvements — straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Network assets under construction and land are not subject to depreciation.

360networks F-7

360networksCorporation
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Fiber optic network assets include rights of way, conduit, fiber, shelters, and point of presence racks. Operating equipment includes network equipment, other equipment necessary to operate the network, and furniture, fixtures and office equipment. Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations when incurred.

The Company’s policy is to depreciate and amortize its long-lived assets over their remaining useful lives and to write down such assets if the net carrying value is not recoverable from future cash flows. The assessment as to whether a write down is required is based on the Company’s estimates of future cash flows and the Company’s assumptions about the use of the assets. When the Company determines the carrying value is not recoverable, the assets are written down to their estimated fair value.

Intangible assets

As-built drawings are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. This amortization period is based on the expected life of the intangible asset.

The Company reviews the carrying amount of intangible assets annually for impairment. The determination of impairments is based on a comparison of undiscounted estimated future cash flows anticipated to be generated during the remaining life of the asset to the net carrying value of the asset. If impairment is determined, the intangible asset is written down to estimated fair value.

Asset retirement obligations

The Company recognizes a liability for asset retirement obligations in the period in which the obligation is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying value of the long-lived assets and amortized over the period of the useful life of the asset. The obligation is increased annually by accretion that is charged to the statement of operations and reduced to reflect assets that have been disposed of during the year.

Revenue recognition — network and communication services

Network services revenue primarily includes revenue from network capacity leased to others and related network and maintenance services. Revenue from communication services is derived from private line, data and local telecommunication services. Revenues from these services are recognized based either on customer usage as measured by the Company’s switches or by contractual agreements.

360networks F-8

360networksCorporation
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Revenues are recognized monthly as services are provided. Advance payments on maintenance contracts are included in deferred revenue.

Certain IRUs of dark fiber and other assets are accounted for as operating leases or service arrangements depending on the whether the customer has the exclusive right to use the assets. Revenue is recognized on both operating leases and service arrangements on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract. The Company also leases facilities to customers for placement of equipment. Revenues on these facilities are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease arrangement. Payments received in advance of revenue recognition are included in deferred revenue.

Under dark fiber and capacity contracts, the Company is required to operate and maintain the network in accordance with industry standards. Under these contracts, customers are charged for certain operating and maintenance fees for the term of each contract. This revenue is recognized over the life of the contract. These contracts require the Company to provide certain service level commitments. If the Company does not meet the required service levels, it may be obligated to provide credits, usually in the form of free service for a short period of time. Services provided under these credits are not included in revenue.

Revenue recognition — infrastructure

Infrastructure revenue includes revenue from construction, operations and maintenance contracts, and sales or leases of dark fiber and related assets when the customer retains title of the assets after the transaction is complete. Advances received on contracts in excess of billings are reflected as deferred revenue. The Company does not recognize any revenue on joint-build construction projects where the Company and the counterparty share in the risks and rewards of the project. Cash received applicable to joint-build construction projects is recorded as a recovery of the construction costs incurred by the Company. Construction related revenue was not material during 2010 and 2009.

Sales of dark fiber and/or conduit and grants of IRU where the customer obtains title to specific assets are accounted for as a sale when acceptance has occurred, title has passed to the customer, collection is reasonably assured, and the Company has no continuing involvement with the assets, other than providing operating and maintenance services for a fee. When there is a continuing involvement with the assets, the transaction is accounted for as a service arrangement and the revenue is recognized over the expected life of the assets unless the contracted term is shorter. Advances received on such contracts are reflected as deferred revenue.

Accounting practices and guidance with respect to IRU revenue recognition has evolved over the years. Any future changes in the accounting treatment may affect the current recognition of revenues and related costs.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Gains and losses on settlements, terminations or modifications of contracts

The Company recognizes a gain on a termination of a contract when the customer or supplier and the Company have reached a settlement/termination agreement, the Company has received the consideration required under the settlement/termination agreement or the Company is no longer obligated to provide additional products or services to the counterparty under the original agreement. Gains on settlement and/or termination of contracts are recognized as nonoperating income.

The Company recognizes a loss on a termination of a contract when it is probable that the customer or supplier and the Company will reach an agreement and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Subsequent adjustments may be made when the Company has entered into a contract termination or settlement agreement. In general, these transactions are entered into in order to reduce costs in future periods. These losses are accounted for as losses on settlements.

Transactions that are generally of an ongoing operating nature are not accounted for as losses on settlements. Examples of such transactions are:

• Settlements applicable to the granting of current price adjustments, concession and/or rebates under the original revenue contract are accounted for as a reduction of revenue.

• Assets returned by customers to whom they were originally sold to or constructed for are accounted for as a reduction in revenue and an increase in assets at the lower of cost or fair value at the date the assets are returned.

• Cost incurred in situations where the Company is obligated to provide additional product and services for no further consideration are accounted for as operating costs.

• Uncollectable customer receivables when a customer has entered creditor protection or similar financial restructuring proceedings are accounted for as a bad debt expense.

Operating costs

Costs applicable to network infrastructure sales and sales-type leases, particularly dark fiber and conduit, consist of direct costs such as the conduit, fiber optic cable, construction of regeneration facilities, labor and an allocation of indirect costs such as rights-of-way, site restoration, equipment costs, insurance and interest charges. These costs are allocated proportionately to individual fiber strands based on the number of fiber strands installed on a particular route.

Operating costs applicable to providing network services include only the direct costs of operating, provisioning and maintaining the network. These costs also include lease costs, rights-of-way costs, access charges, and other third party circuit costs directly attributable to the network.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Nonmonetary exchange transactions

The Company is a party to nonmonetary exchange transactions when the Company sells fiber assets, IRUs, capacity, or services or enters into operating leases with a counter party from which the Company receives assets or services in order to complete and complement its network. The Company accounts for such exchanges of telecommunications capacity irrespective of the form of the transaction based on the fair value of the assets given up. When these exchanges result in the Company paying net monetary consideration, such consideration is recorded as an additional cost of the fiber assets. When these exchanges result in the Company receiving net monetary consideration that is significant, the monetary portion is recognized as revenue, and the related cost of the assets disposed of is recorded as cost of sales.

Stock based compensation

The Company accounts for its stock based compensation using the fair value method. The Company recognizes an expense over the term of each vesting period.

Foreign currency translation and transactions

Transactions in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are recorded at the exchange rate at the transaction date. Changes in exchange rates applicable to foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities result in gains and losses, which are included in the statement of operations.

Assets and liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries and operations that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the year end exchange rate. Revenues and expenses for these businesses are translated at average exchange rates effective during the year. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translations are included in other capital. Although the Company no longer has foreign operations, it maintains bank accounts, holds investments, and incurs professional service costs that result in translation adjustments.

Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the liability method, which requires the recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current period and deferred tax liabilities and assets for future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. The measurement of current and deferred tax liabilities and assets is based on provisions of enacted tax laws; the effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance, where, based on available evidence, the probability of realization of the deferred tax asset does not meet a more likely than not criterion.

The Company records uncertain tax positions if the outcome was considered probable and could reasonably be estimated. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had no accrued amounts related to uncertain tax positions.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by using the treasury stock method to include the dilutive effect of common stock that would be issued assuming the exercise of outstanding stock options, stock based compensation awards, warrants and other dilutive securities, unless the result would be antidilutive. The treasury stock method assumes that proceeds from in-the-money stock options are used to repurchase outstanding common shares.

Accumulated other comprehensive income

Accumulated other comprehensive income consists of net income, foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses arising from available for sale equity securities as follows:

	2010		2009
Foreign currency translation adjustment		4,321,704		1,561,312
Unrealized gains (losses) from available for sale securities		15,525,867		(105,147	)
		19,847,571		1,456,165

Net gain on transfer of assets

During 2010, the Company entered into a transaction with Trilogy Energy Trust (Trilogy) wherein the Company received shares of Trilogy in exchange for restructuring 360’s wholly-owned subsidiary, 360networks (CDN fiber) ltd. This transaction is described in detail in note 5 (a) and resulted in a nonoperating gain of $23,450,076 being recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

Subsequent events:

Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are available to be issued. The Company recognizes in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements. The Company’s financial statements do not recognize subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after the balance sheet date and before financial statements are available to be issued. Note 16 provides disclosure of certain subsequent events that did not result in recognition in the financial statements.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through July 13, 2011, which is the date the financial statements are available to be issued.

2 RESTRUCTURING LIABILITIES

The Company has liabilities related primarily to operating lease commitments that do not provide economic benefit to the Company and have not been terminated. The Company continues to incur costs in the form of monthly payments. A liability is recognized and measured at fair value in the year the lease ceases to be used in operations. The initial recognition of the liability and subsequent adjustment to the fair value of the lease obligation are charged to restructuring expense. The detail of the Company’s restructuring liability accruals are:

	Year ended December 31,
	2010			2009
Balance beginning of period	$	3,284,706		$	3,977,012
Accrual for total anticipated restructuring expenses		216,304			88,870
Less payments and settlements completed in the year		(670,951	)		(781,176	)
Balance end of period	$	2,830,059		$	3,284,706

3 SETTLEMENTS

The Company reached a settlement agreement in December 2009 on its bankruptcy claim against Asia Global Crossing for $11,750,000. Historically, this claim had been reviewed annually for impairment and due to the uncertain outcome of the claim and adverse rulings in similar cases the carrying value of the asset had been written down to $2,000,000 in 2008.

The Company recorded income from this claim settlement of $9,725,000 and recorded a receivable of $11,750,000 in 2009. This receivable was paid in full in February 2010.

4 ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

The Company has asset retirement obligations related to certain fiber, conduit and other facilities that are primarily included in fiber optic network assets. Under certain rights-of-way arrangements, the Company is required to remove the fiber and conduit upon termination of the arrangement. Other rights-of-way arrangements permit the Company to abandon its underground assets upon termination of the arrangement if permission is obtained from the counter party to the arrangement. In addition, under certain lease agreements for facilities, the Company is required to remove equipment and other assets and restore the leased property to its original condition. Management determined no additional obligations arose in 2010 and 2009 related to plant additions.

Management reviews the assumptions that create the asset retirement obligation estimate on an annual basis for reasonableness and applicability. Based upon prevailing industry practice and knowledge, the Company reduced their estimate regarding the future probability in 2010 to remove equipment, fiber and other assets upon termination of leases and right-of-ways.

The Company has estimated the fair value of asset retirement obligations on expected future cash outlays and an imputed interest rate from 11.00% to 13.10%.

These obligations are not secured by any assets of the Company.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(a) During the respective periods, the Company sold certain investment securities and surplus assets that were either held for sale or were no longer in service.

On February 5, 2010, 360networks (fiber holdco) ltd. completed the restructure of 360networks (CDN fiber) ltd., a Canadian Limited Liability Corporation. The restructure involved an exchange of 100% of the shares of 360networks (CDN fiber) ltd. with outstanding stock of Trilogy Energy Trust (Trilogy), a publicly traded energy trust based in Canada not previously affiliated with 360networks. The provisions of the transaction include 360networks receiving 4,165,653 shares of the new entity (Trilogy) and holdback of 2,185,884 shares of Trilogy stock as a contingency for possible changes in the value of the 360networks (CDN fiber) ltd stock occuring after 2010. The remaining 1,979,769 shares were released during 2010 and have been recognized as income in the statement of operations.

The value of the 360networks (CDN fiber) ltd stock to Trilogy was attributed to approximately $730 million of tax loss pools that could be available to offset future Trilogy income under applicable Canadian tax law. The net value of the Trilogy shares at the date of the transaction was $30,081,390. Given the complex and contingent nature of the transition, 360networks has estimated that $22,493,426 of the Trilogy stock proceeds is recognizable in 2010 based on management’s estimate of fulfillment of the conditions outlined the final arrangement agreement. The remaining value of the Trilogy shares will be recognized in the statement of operations in the years after 2012 when provisions of the arrangement agreement requiring the holdback have been met.

(b) Historically, the Company has recognized disputed and/or estimated liabilities, and as updated information becomes available the Company adjusts their accruals. These accruals were evaluated and reduced during 2010 and 2009.

(c) During 2010, the Company has recognized nonoperating expenses due to the payment of unsecured creditor claims allowed under the First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (the Plan) filed by 360networks (USA) inc. and certain affiliates (Debtors), in November 2002.

Due to uncertainty regarding the ability to utilize the deferred tax assets, a full valuation allowance has been provided against the Company’s net deferred tax assets in the financial statements.

As a result of the adopting fresh start reporting, any reversal in future periods of the valuation allowances established upon emergence will be first applied to reduce the carrying amount of intangible assets and secondly as an adjustment to shareholders’ equity.

Stock based compensation expense

The deferred stock-based compensation amortization and charge to income applicable to both stock options and other stock awards for the year ended December 31, 2010, was $514,177 (for the year ended December 31, 2009 — $1,159,751). The stock based compensation expense for 2010 was comprised of the following: stock options-$196,156; restricted stock-$318,021.

The following table summarizes stock based compensation expense to be recognized in each of the following years related to unvested options:

Year ended December 31,	2011		2012		2013		2014		Total
Stock based compensation expense	$	1,742,846	$	775,539	$	238,542	$	36,620	$	2,973,547

Stock-based compensation costs are based on the estimated fair value of grants calculated as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the grants is amortized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the options. Compensation expense recognized is shown in the operating activities section of the statement of cash flows.

The value of the outstanding stock options and restricted shares was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model assuming no dividend yield and the following weighted average assumptions for options granted in 2010: expected volatility in 2010 of 27.00%, risk free interest rate in 2010 of 2.94%, expected life — 4 years (2009:expected volatility of 28.01%; risk free interest rate of 2.59%; expected life of fouryears).

Calculation of the expected volatility used in the Black-Scholes model is based on the volatility of the Dow Jones Telecom Index. The expected term for use in the model was calculated based in part on an analysis of historical exercises of stock options. The Company based the estimated risk-free rate on the U.S. treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company has not paid nor does it currently have any plans to pay cash dividends, thus a 0% dividend yield has been assumed for the model.

The Company estimates potential forfeitures of stock options and adjusts compensation accordingly. The Company has a limited number of option holders and historically low employee turnover with no anticipated changes. Therefore, the best estimate of forfeitures is zero and will be adjusted over the requisite service period to the extent that actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ from such estimates. Changes in the estimated forfeitures will be recognized through a cumulative catch-up adjustment in the period of change and will likely impact the amount of stock compensation to be recognized in future periods.

It should be noted that the Black-Scholes model is only one of the methods available for estimating the value of stock options and the Company’s use of the model should not be interpreted as a prediction as to the actual value that may be realized on the exercise of options. The actual value of the options may be significantly different, and the value actually realized, if any, will depend upon the excess of the market value of the Company’s common stock over the option exercise price at the time of exercise.

14 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Concentration of credit risk

The Company is subject to credit risks applicable to cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and accounts receivable. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments with various financial institutions. The Company limits its exposure to concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable by performing ongoing evaluations of the credit quality of its customers, and obtains advance payments, collateral or guarantees as considered necessary.

Fair value of Assets

The Company measures certain assets at fair value based on generally accepted accounting principles.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The method employed by the company also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying balance sheet, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Available for sale Securities

Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include institutional money market funds, asset backed securities and stock in publicly traded entities. The following fair values are provided solely to comply with financial instrument disclosure requirements.

The fair values are based on quoted market prices.

	December 31, 2010				December 31, 2009
	Carrying value		Fair Value		Carrying value		Fair Value
Available for sale securities	$	58,450,488	$	58,450,488	$	8,185,209	$	8,185,209

Contingent liability-preference recoveries

Pursuant to the First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (the Plan) filed by 360networks (USA) inc. and certain affiliates (Debtors), between 2003 and 2008, Dreier LLP, counsel for the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the Creditors), recovered approximately $74 million as a result of recovering preference payments that the Debtors had made to its creditors in the ninety days prior to its chapter 11 bankruptcy filing in 2001 (Preference Recoveries). Based on a formula in the Plan, the Preference Recoveries were then to be distributed to the Creditors (Creditor Distribution) and to the Company (Debtor Distribution). In addition, as part of a settlement with a third party creditor, an allowed unsecured claim in the Debtor’s own bankruptcy was assigned to the Company entitling it to a portion of the Creditor Distribution as well (the Claim Distribution). The Claim Distribution and Debtor Distribution were expected to total $17.4 million. Accordingly, on September 6, 2008, the Company requested and received a distribution of $4.5 million from the Preference Recoveries and then a second distribution of $11.9 million on November 17, 2008, leaving approximately $1 million yet to be distributed on its Claim Distribution. On or about December 3, 2008, the Company learned that the managing partner of Dreier LLP, Marc Dreier, had stolen approximately $38.6 million from the attorney escrow account which represented the balance of the Preference Recoveries that were to be distributed to the Creditors and the Company. Shortly thereafter, Dreier was arrested and plead guilty to a number of securities and wire fraud charges arising from his sale of approximately $670 million in fictitious securities. Subsequently, a postconfirmation representative was appointed to represent the Creditors and investigate the $38.6 million stolen by Dreier and to pursue claims relating to those funds. The postconfirmation representative has stated that he is still considering the extent to which the distributions to the Company may be recovered for the benefit of the Creditors. In addition, Dreier LLC has filed bankruptcy and the trustee in that case may try to recover some or all of the distributions that were made to the Company. The Company believes that it has a variety of substantive legal defenses to any claims by the Creditor’s postconfirmation representative or the trustee of the Dreier LLC estate for the return of the $16.4 million in distributions previously received by the Company. The Company believes that the amount of the final recovery can not be reasonably estimated at this time and as a result, has deferred recognition of a portion of the income related to distributions.

Litigation

The Company is a party to certain legal actions arising in the normal course of its business. The Company is neither involved in, nor threatened by, proceedings for which the Company believes it is not adequately insured or indemnified or which, if determined adversely, would have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

The case styled360networks Tennessee L.L.C., et. al. v. Illinois Central Railroad Companypending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois was tried before a jury in the second week of June 2010. This case concerns responsibility for relocating 360networks’ fibers’ on the Chicago-New Orleans route in the vicinity of certain specified wooden bridges being replaced by Illinois Central. The jury returned a verdict awarding Illinois Central damages in the amount of $232,996. In response to this verdict, 360networks filed a motion with the court seeking judgment as a matter of law, or in the alternative, a new trial. The court has delayed ruling on this motion while the Parties discuss settlement. These settlement discussions are ongoing.

16 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In relation to the theft of funds by Marc Dreier (see Note 15), on February 1, 2010, a complaint was filed bySteven Reisman, As Post Confirmation Representative of the Chapter 11 Estates of 360networks (USA) inc.against 360networks (USA) inc. seeking the return of $16.1 million (the Distribution) paid to 360networks (USA) inc. in November, 2008, by Dreier, LLP, counsel for the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the Committee) from the Company’s Chapter 11 reorganization in 2001. The Committee is seeking the return of the Distribution based on various equitable theories so that it can be distributed pro-rata to all of the Company’s creditors and the Company, in which event, the Company would retain approximately $4 million, in addition to any other pro-rata distribution of recoveries by the Committee from other sources. The Parties are continuing to pursue settlement negotiations; however, if a settlement is not reached, motions for summary judgment and trial will occur in late July, 2011.

In addition, the Trustee in the Dreier LLC bankruptcy filed a complaint on October 18, 2010 against the Company demanding the return of $11.9 million based on those funds being paid to the Company within the 90 day preference period of the Dreier LLC bankruptcy filing. The Parties are continuing to pursue settlement negotiations; however, if a settlement is not reached, the Company believes it has a number of meritorious defenses to the Trustee’s demand.

360networks (USA)inc recognized other income of $3.02M in October as a results of these settlements.
