       GLOWPOINT TO RESTATE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR PRIOR FISCAL PERIODS
                Current Cash Position and Revenues Not Impacted


HILLSIDE, N.J., AUGUST 3, 2005 -- Glowpoint, Inc., (NASDAQ: GLOW) the world's
leading broadcast quality IP-based video communications service provider, today
announced that the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has undertaken a
review of certain financial accounting matters affecting previously reported
financial information. Glowpoint engaged Eisner LLP as its independent auditors
effective June 2, 2005. In connection with the engagement, Eisner LLP made
certain inquiries which resulted in the Company identifying such matters.

As a result of management's review to date, the Company has concluded that its
financial statements for the fiscal years 2002 through 2004 (and the related
quarters) and the quarter ended March 31, 2005 will need to be restated.
Consequently, those financial statements should no longer be relied upon. The
restatement is expected to relate to transactions that principally occurred when
the Company was primarily a reseller of video conferencing equipment. The
restatement items that have been identified to date generally involve the
capitalization of costs associated with purchases of video conferencing
equipment, telecommunications circuits used in the Company's network and third
party software that should have been expensed.

While the review process is not yet complete, the Company believes the
restatement will increase previously reported operating losses and net losses
for the indicated fiscal and quarterly periods. Other than corrections to
classifications resulting from the restatement, previously reported cash flows
are not expected to be impacted. In addition, the Company's current cash
position, 2005 revenue and revenues reported in the prior periods are not
expected to be impacted.

As a result of the review, the investor call scheduled for August 4, 2005 to
discuss the Company's second quarter results is being postponed. In accordance
with the provisions of Sarbanes-Oxley, the Company's Audit Committee has
retained independent counsel to assist in this review. The Company has also
discussed the matters associated with the restatement with Eisner LLP and BDO
Seidman, LLP (the Company's previous independent auditors). The Company has
filed today a Form 8-K relating to this matter with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC").






While the Company, its Audit Committee and its independent auditors are making
every effort to complete all necessary work, the Company will not be in a
position to finalize the financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended June
30, 2005 in time to file its Form 10-Q within the prescribed time frame. The
Company is working diligently to complete the restatement and file its Form 10-Q
for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2005 as expeditiously as possible. The
earnings call will be rescheduled as soon as the review is complete.
