Readers are also urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us which attempt to advise interested parties of the factors which affect our business, including without limitation, the disclosures made under "Item 1A.

Overview
Business
We are an IP communications company, offering a range of communications solutions from hosted IP voice and conferencing products, to text and data collaboration, to telepresence videoconferencing products.
Our subsidiary, AccessLine, Inc., provides customers with a range of business phone services and applications. At the core of AccessLine's business phone services are their software components, all of which are developed internally and loaded on standard commercial grade servers. AccessLine's phone service can be delivered with a variety of hosted features configured to meet the application needs of the customer. By delivering business phone service to the market in this manner, AccessLine offers flexibility to customers and can serve a variety of business sizes.
AccessLine offers two business dialtone products: SmartVoice TM and Digital Phone Service. SmartVoice TM replaces a customer's existing telephone lines with a VoIP alternative, but allows the customer to keep using its current phone equipment. This product is targeted at the mid-size business market. The customer has the ability to select the number of office locations, number of phone lines and types of phone numbers. Digital Phone Service is a combined package of a digital phone system and accompanying service, geared for small companies with 20 or fewer employees at a single location. The customer selects how many phone lines and how many stations, and selects optional features such as Automated Attendant, conference calling or fax numbers. AccessLine then preconfigures the phone system to the customer's specifications, and ships it directly to the customer.
In addition, AccessLine offers a host of other phone services, including, conferencing calling services, toll-free service plans, a virtual phone system with after hours answering service that routes calls based on specific business needs, find-me and follow-me services, a full featured voice mail system that instantly contacts a customer via an email or cell phone text message the moment such customer receives a new voice mail or fax, and the ability to manage faxes from virtually anywhere.
Through our Digital Presence TM product line we provide our customers with a complete system for telepresence video conferencing. The core of our system is our software components-video and audio encoder and decoders, call signaling and bandwidth management-all of which are developed internally and pre-loaded on a standard Linux server. Our telepresence solutions are based on next generation IP standards. A Digital Presence TM system also includes the monitors, cameras and audio components to optimize the user experience, as well as the equipment necessary to enable a "hotspot" in the conference room for the wireless operation of the system controls and data-sharing. Our Digital Presence TM systems can be matched with a wide range of off-the-shelf monitors, cameras and audio components to meet certain room configuration or performance requirements. Our channel partners and our subsidiary, AVS, act as the system integrators to design, build-out and install the complete telepresence system including components and peripheral equipment to meet the application needs of the customer. By delivering Digital Presence™ to the market in this manner, we offer flexibility to customers and can support conference rooms for both small and large audiences.
History
We were a development stage company through 2005 working on our Digital PresenceTM product line. We completed the development of our initial telepresence solution and commenced sales of that product in 2005. In 2006 we focused our business efforts on developing our channel partner relationships and we secured our first significant telepresence customer accounts. In April 2007, we acquired AVS, which at the time was one of our channel partners who distributed our telepresence systems and related solutions in New York, New Jersey and nearby regions of the United States. With this acquisition, we expanded our business to provide integration, consultation and implementation solutions for customers desiring telepresence and audio-visual systems and products. We entered the VOIP voice and network services market in September 2007, with our acquisition of AccessLine, Inc.
Recent Financings
June 2008 Financing
On June 30, 2008, we entered into a securities exchange agreement with the investors in our previous debenture and preferred stock financings and issued six-year, interest only debentures due June 30, 2014 in exchange for all of the then outstanding debentures and shares of our preferred stock. The debentures issued in June 2008 amend and restate the terms of the previously outstanding debentures. The debentures issued in this transaction (an aggregate principal amount of $26.1 million) were exchanged for all of the then outstanding debentures held by the investors (an aggregate principal amount of $10.7 million), accrued interest on the outstanding debentures of $0.1 million, all of the then outstanding shares of preferred stock held by the investors (stated value of $14.9 million), and accrued dividends on such preferred stock of $0.4 million. In connection with this transaction, the exercise prices of the outstanding warrants issued in the previous debenture and preferred stock financings were reduced from $1.25 per share to $1.00, which was subsequently reduced to $0.40 per share in connection with our December 2008 financing, discussed below. The number of common shares underlying these warrants was not adjusted in connection with this change in exercise price.
In December 2008, we amended certain terms of the debentures issued in June 2008 which are discussed below under the heading "December 2008 Amendment of Outstanding Debentures and Warrants." And, in May 2009, the Company again restructured the terms of its outstanding debentures which are discussed below under the heading "May 2009 Amendment of Outstanding Debentures and Warrants."
The following summarizes the terms of the debentures issued in June 2008, as amended:
Term. The debentures are due and payable on June 30, 2014.
Interest. When originally issued, interest accrued at the rate of 12.0% per annum and was payable monthly, commencing on August 1, 2008. In December 2008, the parties agreed to amend the interest payment provisions to eliminate monthly interest payments at the rate of 12% per annum. Following this amendment, interest was payable quarterly at the rate of (i) 0% per annum from October 1, 2008 until September 30, 2009, (ii) 13.5% per annum from October 1, 2009 until September 30, 2012 and (iii) 18% per annum from October 1, 2012 until maturity. In May 2009, the parties again agreed to amend the interest payment provisions to reduce the interest rate to 0% through June 30, 2011 and then to 5% per annum thereafter.
Principal Payment. The principal amount of the debenture, if not paid earlier, is due and payable on June 30, 2014.
Payments of Interest. Interest payments, as amended in May 2009, are due quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, commencing on October 1, 2011. Interest payments are required to be paid in cash.
Early Redemption. We have the right to redeem the debentures before their maturity by payment in cash of the then outstanding principal amount plus (i) accrued but unpaid interest, (ii) an amount equal to all interest that would have accrued if the principal amount subject to such redemption had remained outstanding through the maturity date and (iv) all liquidated damages and other amounts due in respect of the debenture. To redeem the debentures we must meet certain equity conditions. The payment of the debentures would occur on the 10th day following the date we gave the holders notice of our intent to redeem the debentures. We agreed to honor any notices of conversion received from a holder before the pay off date of the debentures.
Voluntary Conversion by Holder. When originally issued, the debentures were convertible at anytime at the discretion of the holder at a conversion price per share of $1.25, subject to adjustment including full-ratchet, anti-dilution protection. The conversion price was reduced to $0.40 with the December 2008 amendment and further reduced to $0.30 with the May 2009 amendment.
Forced Conversion. Subject to compliance with certain equity conditions, we also have the right to force conversion if the VWAP for its common stock exceeds 200% of the then effective conversion price for 20 trading days out of a consecutive 30 trading day period. Any forced conversion is subject to our meeting certain equity conditions and is subject to a 4.99% cap on the beneficial ownership of our common stock by the holder and its affiliates following such conversion, which cap may increase to 9.99% by the holder upon not less than 61 days notice.
Covenants. The debentures impose certain covenants on us, including restrictions against incurring additional indebtedness, creating any liens on our property, amending our certificate of incorporation or bylaws, redeeming or paying dividends on shares of our outstanding common stock, and entering into certain related party transactions. The debentures define certain events of default, including without limitation failure to make a payment obligation, failure to observe other covenants of the debenture or related agreements (subject to applicable cure periods), breach of representation or warranty, bankruptcy, default under another significant contract or credit obligation, delisting of our common stock, a change in control, failure to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) for more than 20 consecutive days, or more than an aggregate of 45 days in any 12 month period, or if any other conditions exist for such a period of time that the holder is unable to sell the shares issuable upon conversion of the debenture pursuant to Rule 144 without volume or manner of sale restrictions, or failure to deliver share certificates in a timely manner. In the event of default, the holders of the debentures have the right to accelerate all amounts outstanding under the debenture and demand payment of a mandatory default amount equal to 130% of the amount outstanding plus accrued interest and expenses.
Security. The debentures we issued are secured by all of our assets under the terms of the amended and restated security agreement we and our subsidiaries entered into with the holders of the June 2008 debentures, which amends and restates the security agreement we and the holders entered into in connection with our August 2007 financing. Each of our subsidiaries also entered into guarantees in favor of the Investors, pursuant to which each subsidiary guaranteed the complete payment and performance by us of our obligations under the debentures and related agreements.
August 2008 Financing
On August 13, 2008, we entered into a debenture and warrant purchase agreement with one of the institutional investors that invested in the previous private placements, pursuant to which we issued a senior secured convertible debenture in the principal amount of $2.0 million, along with a five year warrant to purchase 608,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share, subject to adjustment, including full-ratchet anti-dilution protection. The terms of the debentures we issued in this financing were also amended by the terms of the amendment agreement we entered into in December 2008 and were further amended by the terms of the amendment agreement we entered into in May 2009. See "December 2008 Amendment of Outstanding Debentures and Warrants," and "May 2009 Amendment of Outstanding Debentures and Warrants," below. Our rights and obligations, as well as those of the investor, with respect to the debenture we issued in this financing are identical to the rights and obligations of the debentures we issued in June 2008, as amended.
December 2008 Financing
On December 11, 2008, we entered into a debenture and warrant purchase agreement with an institutional investor and a holder of the debentures we issued in June 2008 and August 2008, pursuant to which we issued a senior secured convertible debenture in the principal amount of $1.5 million, along with a warrant to purchase 456,000 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $0.40 per share. This financing transaction resulted in net proceeds to us of $1.5 million. We may refer to this financing as our December 2008 financing in this report.
The terms of the debenture we issued in December 2008 are substantially similar
to the terms of the debentures we issued in June 2008 and August 2008, except as
follows: interest is payable quarterly at the rate of (i) 0% per annum from the
original issue date until the one year anniversary of the original issue date,
(ii) 12% per annum from the one year anniversary of the original issue date
until the four year anniversary of the original issue date, and (iii) 18% per
annum from the four year anniversary of the original issue date until the
maturity date. The terms of the debenture were amended by the terms of the
amendment agreement we entered into in May 2009. See "May 2009 Amendment of
Outstanding Debentures and Warrants," below.
December 2008 Amendment of Outstanding Debentures and Warrants
In connection with our December 2008 financing, we entered into an amendment
agreement with the holders of the debentures we issued in June 2008 and August
2008, and the warrants we issued in December 2006, February 2007, March 2008 and
August 2008. With respect to the debentures, the parties agreed to amend the
interest rate and interest payment provisions, which had called for monthly
interest payments at the rate of 12% per annum. As amended, interest is payable
quarterly at the rate of (i) 0% per annum from October 1, 2008 until September
30, 2009, (ii) 13.5% per annum from October 1, 2009 until September 30, 2012 and
(iii) 18% per annum from October 1, 2012 until maturity.
As a result of the issuance of the debenture and warrant in the December 2008 financing discussed above, the conversion price and exercise price, respectively, of the debentures issued in June 2008 and August 2008 and the warrants issued in December 2006, February 2007, March 2008 and August 2008 was reduced to $0.40. However, under the amendment agreement, the parties agreed to waive the adjustment provision of such warrants that would have increased the number of shares subject to such warrants as a result of the issuance of the debentures and warrants in the December 2008 financing.
May 2009 Amendment of Outstanding Debentures and Warrants
In May 2009, we restructured the terms of our outstanding PIPE Debentures and all of our outstanding PIPE Warrants pursuant to the terms of an Amendment Agreement dated May 8, 2009 entered into between the Company and the holders of the outstanding PIPE Debentures and PIPE Warrants (the "Amendment Agreement"). The Amendment Agreement revised the terms of the PIPE Debentures to:
· decrease the conversion price from $0.40 to $0.30;
· require that all future interest payments be made in cash;
· defer interest payments until October 1, 2011;
· reduce the interest rate to 0% through June 30, 2011 and then to 5% per annum thereafter;
· eliminate the requirement that, at the time of any conversion of principal, we pay the holders an amount in cash equal to the interest that would have accrued on such principal had such principal remained outstanding through the full term of the PIPE Debentures; and
· eliminate the 20% premium for voluntary prepayment.
Under the terms of the Amendment Agreement, we also agreed to add certain
covenants to the PIPE Debentures, including a requirement to maintain at least
$300,000 in cash at all times while the PIPE Debentures are outstanding, to
sustain a level of gross revenue each quarter equal to at least 80% of the
average gross revenue for the trailing two quarters, and commencing with the
period ended June 30, 2009, to maintain a positive adjusted EBITDA in each
rolling two quarter period. For example, ending September 30, 2009, the sum of
the three-month adjusted EBITDA of the three months ended June 30 and September
30 must be at least $0.00 or greater. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking
the our net income for the applicable period, and adding to that amount the sum
of the following: (i) any provision for (or less any benefit from) income taxes,
plus (ii) any deduction for interest expense, net of interest income, plus (iii)
depreciation and amortization expense, plus (iv) non-cash expenses (such as
stock-based compensation and warrant compensation), plus (v) expenses related to
changes in fair market value of warrant and beneficial conversion features, plus
(vi) expenses related to impairment of tangible and intangible assets.
In addition, under the terms of the Amendment Agreement, the holders of the PIPE Warrants were granted the right to exchange their outstanding PIPE Warrants for shares of our common stock at the rate of 1.063 shares of common stock underlying the PIPE Warrants for one share of common stock, subject to adjustment for stock splits and dividends. In exchange, the anti-dilution protection under the PIPE Warrants was eliminated. Previously the exercise price of the PIPE Warrants would decrease, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise would increase, generally, each time we issued common stock or common stock equivalents at a price less than the exercise price of the PIPE Warrants. The Amendment Agreement eliminates the potential for future dilution from the PIPE Warrants.
Outlook
We entered 2009 with a solid product line of both voice and video solutions, including our Digital Phone Service. We experienced growth in revenues and gross margins for each of our Voice and Network Solutions and our Video Solutions segments in 2008 and during the three months ended March 31, 2009. Currently, our overriding objective is to achieve operating profitability. To that end, during the first quarter of our current fiscal year, we have worked to increase sales by spending more in advertising than we spent in the fourth quarter of 2008. In addition, we have undertaken initiatives to reduce operating expenses, including optimizing our network configuration and reducing our staffing levels.
If we can continue to generate revenue and gross margin improvements consistent with our growth in 2008 and during the three months ended March 31, 2009, and maintain control of our operating expenses, we believe that our existing capital will be sufficient to finance our operations for 2009. However, the uncertainties related to the global economic slowdown and the disruption in the financial markets has impacted our visibility on our business outlook. Weakening economic conditions may result in decreased demand for our products. We have witnessed some slow down on our Video Solutions segment. In addition, we have limited financial resources. Unforeseen decreases in revenues, or increases in operating costs could impact our ability to fund our operations. We do not currently have any sources of credit available to us. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.
Based on currently available information, management believes 2009 revenues will show double digit increases in growth over 2008 numbers. We are committed to achieving positive cash flow.
Going Concern
We remain dependent on outside sources of funding until our results of operations provide positive cash flows. As of December 31, 2008, our independent registered auditors concluded that there was substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, and this condition remains as of March 31, 2009. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
During the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, we were unable to generate cash flows sufficient to support our operations and have been dependent on debt and equity raised from qualified individual investors. We experienced negative financial results as follows:
