FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS



This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the sections entitled Summary, Risk Factors and
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or to our future financial performance, and involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or
implied by these forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as expect, intend, may, would, could, plan,
seek, potential, continue, or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements since they involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases, beyond our control and which could materially affect actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current
expectations, which we describe in more detail elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the heading Risk Factors, include, but are not limited to:



| |  | failure to increase the sales of our products;
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  | the loss of any of our key customers;
|- |  | -------------------------------------



| | failure to successfully integrate our business with that of Vertical Networks;
|- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | the introduction of competitive products, including other software- or server-based phone systems;
|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | slower than expected development of the software- or server-based phone system market or any event that causes software- or server-based phone systems to be less attractive to
customers;
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | failure to timely file our reports under the Exchange Act;
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  | the failure to have adequate disclosure controls in place;
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  | the finding by our independent registered public accounting firm that we have material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting;
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | possible delisting from the OTCBB for failure to remain current in our Exchange Act reporting obligations;
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | lapses of internal controls;
|- |  | ----------------------------



| |  | an inability to achieve profitability;

If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may vary significantly from
what we projected. Any forward-looking statement you read in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflects our current views with respect to future events and is subject to these and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to our
operations, results of operations, growth strategy and liquidity. We assume no obligation to publicly update or revise these forward-looking statements for any reason, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those
anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.



EXPLANATORY NOTE



The purpose of this Form 10-Q/A is to amend the Form 10-Q filed on June 3, 2005 to:



(1) Restate financial statements for an adjustment to Operating Expense and Deferred Compensation resulting from the reassessment of the appropriate value of stock based
compensation in the form of stock options granted to new and continuing employees on the day that the Company acquired Vertical Networks, Inc. Originally no value had been assigned to the stock option grants that occurred in September 2004; however,
upon further review during the audit of our fiscal year, ended June 30, 2005 it was determined that the grants represented a significant amount of stock-based compensation based on the intrinsic value of the underlying stock on the day of the
grants as determined under the guidelines of APB 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. As a result, the Company is restating this Form 10-Q to reflect stock based compensation expense resulting from the amortization of the
deferred compensation of $10.1 million represented by the stock options as valued using APB 25.



The Items of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2005, which are amended and restated herein, are:

ARTISOFT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES



NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION



Artisoft, Inc., (Artisoft, the Company or the
Registrant) develops, markets and sells computer telephony software applications and integrated computer telephony products. The Companys principal products are TeleVantage and InstantOffice. The Company is in the process of
changing its name, currently they are Doing Business As Vertical Communications.



The Companys principal executive offices are located at 5 Cambridge Center, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02142. The telephone number at that address is (617) 354-0600. The Company was incorporated in November 1982 and reincorporated
by merger in Delaware in July 1991.



The unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of Artisoft and its four wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.



The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). The balance sheet amounts at June 30, 2004 in this report were derived from
the Companys audited financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments of a normal
recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial results for the interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to such rules and regulations. Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, the Company recommends that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004 on file with the SEC. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other future periods.



The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses
during the reported period. Areas where significant judgments are made include, but are not limited to revenue recognition as well as the accounting for our recent acquisition of Vertical Networks Inc. (VNI or Vertical
Networks) discussed below. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The accounting policies applied are consistent with those disclosed in Note 1 in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K .



Acquisition of Vertical Networks Inc.



On September 28, 2004, Artisoft completed the acquisition of substantially all of the
assets, other than patents and patent rights, of Vertical Networks Inc., pursuant to the terms of an asset purchase agreement entered into on September 23, 2004. Vertical Networks is a leading provider of distributed IP-PBX software and
communications solutions to large enterprises. Artisoft has also received a patent license for the use of all of Vertical Networks patents and patent applications other than Vertical Networks rights under specified patents that do not
relate to the business purchased by Artisoft. In addition, Artisoft assumed specific liabilities of Vertical Networks. The operational results of this acquisition have been included herein since September 28, 2004, the date that the acquisition
was consummated.



(2) RESTATEMENT



In September 2004, Artisoft granted stock options to its executives and employees, including
new employees hired that month as a result of the acquisition of Vertical Networks. These options were granted with a strike price 15%, or 17 cents below the price of shares sold as part of the September 2004 Equity Financing which was completed at
the same time at a per share price of $1.1386 per share. Initially, no stock based compensation or deferred compensation expense was recorded for these grants, and the discount to the presumed basis of $1.1386 per share price was determined to
create a non-material stock based compensation expense under APB 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.



The Company has subsequently determined that under APB 25 the intrinsic value of stock options must be computed using the quoted market price of the
underlying common stock. Accordingly, the options granted in September 2004 should have been determined using the Companys common stock trading price on the OTC market the day of the grant, without any discount for liquidity, volume or other
factors. This value was determined to be $2.85 per share. This intrinsic value yields a discount of $1.88 per share for the options that were granted in September 2004.



This substantial discount yields an initial deferred compensation of $10.1 million, and a stock-based compensation expense of $634 thousand
per quarter based on the four year vesting schedule of the stock options in question.



The Company has restated the financial statements for the quarters ended September 30, 2004, December 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005 to reflect the correct deferred compensation balance at the end of each quarter, as well
as the stock-based compensation expense that should have been recorded in the quarters ended December 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005.

The principal adjustments to restate the financial statements for the quarter ended
March 31, 2005 are as follows:



Balance Sheet



The Balance Sheet impact of the changes discussed above include an increase of Additional
Paid in Capital of $10.1 million, and increase in the Accumulated Deficit of $1.268 million and the creation of a Deferred Compensation in Shareholders Equity of $8.9 million, all as of March 31, 2005.



Statement of Operations



The Statement of Operations impact of the changes discussed above include an increase in Operating Expenses of $634 thousand and $1.268
million, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2005, and a resulting increase in the Operating Loss, Net Loss and Loss Applicable to Common Shareholders of $634 thousand and $1.268 million, respectively, for three

(3) SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES



Stock-Based Compensation



The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees, in accounting for its stock incentive plan. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the grant date for its stock options under Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.123,
Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, the Companys net loss and net loss per common equivalent share for the three-and nine month period ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below
(in thousands, except per share amounts):

Generally, options become exercisable
over a four-year period commencing on the date of the grant. Options granted prior to and after September 28, 2004 vest 25% at the first anniversary of the grant date with the remaining 75% vesting in equal monthly increments over the remaining
three years of the vesting period. Options granted on September 28, 2004 vest 2.08333% monthly. The fair value of options granted was calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

(4) NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS



In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which establishes standards for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. This standard requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee
services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. This eliminates the exception to account for such awards using the intrinsic method previously allowable under APB Opinion No. 25.

No. 123(R) will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 15, 2005. We are currently
evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) and therefore we are currently unable to quantify its effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements and results of operations; however, we believe that our stock compensation
expense will increase in absolute dollars upon adoption of the standard. See the pro forma disclosure as currently provided under SFAS No. 123 in Note 2.



(5) ACQUISITION OF VERTICAL NETWORKS AND FINANCING



On September 28, 2004, Artisoft completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and assumed specific liabilities of Vertical Networks, a leading
provider of distributed IP-PBX software and communications solutions to large enterprises, other than patents and patent rights, pursuant to the terms of an asset purchase agreement entered into on September 23, 2004. Artisoft also received a
patent license for the use of all of Vertical Networks patents and patent applications other than Vertical Networks rights under specified patents that do not relate to the business purchased by Artisoft.



The acquisition of Vertical Networks provides Artisoft with a complementary product line and
access to distributed large enterprise customers and a direct sales channel through systems integrator partners including IBM and AT&T.



The purchase price for Vertical Networks consisted of: $13.5 million in cash, paid at closing except for $1.0 million held in escrow to secure Vertical Networks
indemnification obligations to Artisoft, $1.0 million in deal costs, the assumption of most liabilities of Vertical Networks and up to $5.5 million in cash payable under an earn-out provision in an amount equal to the first $5.5 million of
non-refundable software license revenues received in cash by Artisoft from CVS Pharmacy, Inc. with respect to various types of Vertical Networks software to be used by CVS in connection with a rapid prescription refill project that it plans to roll
out to its stores and other projects. Neither the $1.0 million held in escrow nor the $5.5 million earn-out provision were included in the total purchase price in the table below. The $1.0 million held in escrow is presented on the Consolidated
Balance Sheet as Restricted Cash and the $5.5 million earn-out provision is not included in the accompanying financial statements. These contingent payments will be recorded as a component of the purchase price if and when the related contingencies
are resolved.



The acquisition was financed with a portion of the proceeds from
a $27.5 million common stock financing completed in two tranches on September 28, 2004 and October 1, 2004. Artisoft sold a total of 24,159,468 shares of its common stock at a per share purchase price of $1.1386 per share to several
investors, including M/C Venture Partners. In connection with, or prior to the financing, the holders of all shares of Artisofts preferred stock converted those shares into common stock. Following the issuance and sale of common stock in the
financing and the conversions of Artisofts preferred stock to common stock, M/C Venture Partners is now the largest beneficial holder of Artisofts common stock, with a 51.7% beneficial ownership interest.



Artisoft has agreed to register, under the Securities Act of 1933, the shares issued and sold
under the stock purchase agreement for resale by the investors. Artisoft agreed to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission the registration statement with respect to this registration by November 12, 2004 and to use its best efforts to
cause the registration statement to become effective on or before December 31, 2004. Artisoft has not yet filed the registration statement. If the registration statement is not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to March 31, 2005 or
if the registration statement, after being declared effective, ceases to be effective and available for any continuous period that exceeds 30 days or for one or more periods that exceed in the aggregate 60 days in any 12-month period, Artisoft will
be required to pay each investor in the financing liquidated damages in an amount equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price paid by the investor under the purchase agreement (not to exceed 9% of such purchase price, in the aggregate). At this date
Artisoft is obligated to pay liquidated damages, since the registration was not declared effective by March 31, 2005 . Commencing in April, 2005, the expense from each month of delay in achieving effective registration of the shares is $275,000
per month. Artisoft has also made other customary agreements regarding this registration, including matters relating to indemnification; maintenance of the registration statement; payment of expenses; and compliance with state blue sky
laws.



Artisoft also agreed to several negative covenants under the stock
purchase agreement. Artisofts negative covenants relate to obligations not to, without the prior consent of M/C Venture Partners, enter into a transaction involving a change in control of Artisoft; incur indebtedness in excess of $3.0 million;
create any security with an equity component unless that security is junior to the common stock or, subject to specified exceptions, issue any equity securities; transfer its intellectual property; repurchase, redeem or pay dividends on any shares
of capital stock (subject to limited exceptions); grant stock options that are not authorized by a vote of the board of directors or its compensation committee; liquidate or dissolve; change the size of Artisofts board of directors; amend
Artisofts certificate of incorporation or bylaws; change the nature of Artisofts business; or alter the voting rights of shares of Artisofts capital stock in a disparate manner. The Company believes that it is in compliance with
all covenants other than the registration covenant described above.



As a
result of the sale of common stock under the stock purchase agreement, the exercise price of all of the warrants to purchase an aggregate of 466,664 shares of common stock issued in Artisofts 2001 financing and all of the warrants to purchase
an aggregate of 2,627,002 shares of common stock issued in Artisofts 2003 financing was reduced to $1.1386 per share pursuant to the terms of those warrants. Immediately prior to the sale of common stock under the purchase agreement, the
exercise price of the warrants issued in 2001 was $1.50 per share, and the exercise price of the warrants issued in 2003 was $1.88 per share. The reduction of the exercise price of these warrants resulted in the recording of a non-cash deemed
dividend equal to approximately $1.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005. Additionally, under a consent, amendment and waiver agreement, all warrants issued in the 2001 and 2003 financings were amended to delete the price protection
provisions of those warrants. Therefore, as so amended, the per share exercise price of those warrants will no longer be subject to adjustment in the event of sales of securities by Artisoft, except for customary adjustments for stock splits,
dividends, recapitalizations and other similar transactions.

##### Table of Contents

The following table represents the estimated allocation of the purchase price for our acquisition of Vertical Networks
over the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. Artisoft is still in the process of assembling the information necessary for it to finalize the allocation of the total purchase price and has
obtained supporting third party valuations of any intangible assets, assumed liabilities and acquired deferred revenue. Thus, the allocation of the purchase price may change upon completion of this assessment process.

The estimated values of current assets
and liabilities were based upon their historical costs in the hands of the seller on the date of acquisition due to their short-term nature. Property and equipment was also estimated based upon its historical cost as there was no appreciated real
estate and the historical costs of the office equipment, furniture and machinery closely approximated fair value. This amount may be adjusted subsequently when we complete our assessment of the property and equipment that will be utilized in the
combined operations and those that will be disposed. The estimated value of deferred revenue was based upon the guidance in Emerging Issues Task Force 01-03, Accounting in a Business Combination for Deferred Revenue of an Acquiree,and was
calculated as the estimated cost for the Company to fulfill the contractual obligations acquired under various customer contracts plus a fair value profit margin. Additionally, of the sellers recorded deferred revenue of $6.6 million, the
company determined that only $2.6 million met the standard set by EITF 01-03 as representing assumed legal obligations; the balance of the deferred revenue, representing mostly customer payments with no remaining obligations, was not recorded by the
company. The excess purchase price was allocated to goodwill based upon the following factors: the value acquired in the form of additional scale and economies of scale resulting from the size of the combined entity, and the value of the assembled
workforce, especially the engineering and sales talent personnel who have continued as part of the acquired operation. The benefits of added scale and the economics resulting there from was a primary reason for the acquisition, along with the
talents of the acquired personnel and the ability to leverage existing, owned technology over the acquired products.



The following pro forma unaudited condensed financial information gives effect to Artisofts acquisition of Vertical Networks as if it had occurred on July 1,
of each period presented. The following information is based on historical results of operations of Artisoft for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 and of Vertical Networks for the same historical period. The pro
forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the consolidated company that would have actually occurred had the acquisition of Vertical Networks been
effected as of July 1 for each period presented.

The
following adjustments have been reflected in the above pro forma condensed financial information:



To adjust Verticals historical reported revenues from the sale of telephone systems (systems) to the amount that would have been reported under Artisofts revenue recognition policy. In 2002 and
2003, Vertical entered into multiple element arrangements consisting of an extended warranty arrangement, software license agreements with rights for updates and upgrades on a when and if available basis and an agreement to specify pricing of
uncommitted future telephone systems. Under Verticals policy, the extended warranty and software license arrangements were recognized over the term of the arrangements. The telephone system pricing agreement was assessed for significant and
incremental discounts and future telephone systems were recognized upon shipment if all other revenue recognition criteria of SAB 104 had been met.



However, under Artisofts revenue recognition policy, the software license agreement for the telephone systems core software that provides when and if
available updates and upgrades (extended software support arrangement) and the telephone system sales are considered multiple element arrangements. The extended software support agreement would apply to all previous and future system
sales. As Vertical had not historically sold extended software support separately to other customers or on a renewal basis, sufficient vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value does not exist to allocate the arrangement fee to the systems and
the extended software support arrangement. Accordingly, the fee for previous and future system sales considered to be part of a multiple element arrangement, or combined unit of accounting, with the extended software support arrangement is
recognized ratably over the term of the extended software support arrangement along with the extended support fee and related costs of these sales. The pro forma adjustment reduces revenues and net income (loss) to the amount that would have been
recognized under Artisofts policy in order to provide a better indication of what the results of operations would have been had the transaction occurred at the beginning of the period presented. For historical reporting purposes the deferred
revenue and related deferred costs which are approximately $7.5 million and $4.2 million, and $12.9 and $7.5 respectively for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005 will be amortized over a period of up to seventeen quarters or four
years and three months.



Prior to the Vertical Networks acquisition, Vertical
Networks had deferred revenue relating to certain software licenses, extended software support arrangements and an extended hardware warranty arrangement over the terms of the support arrangements. The Company evaluated their legal obligation that
would have been assumed under these contracts if the acquisition had occurred on July 1, 2003 and estimated the fair value of this assumed liability. The book value of the deferred revenue on July 1, 2003 was written down by $5.4 million
to reflect the fair value of the assumed liabilities and the related amortization was reduced by $.2 million per quarter.



The value of intangible assets acquired as part of the acquisition of Vertical Networks was based upon an independent valuation of those assets. Three amortizable
intangible assets were identified: existing technology, existing customer contracts, and other anticipated revenue from existing customers. The total amortizable intangible assets value was determined to be $4.3 million, and each of the three
elements of the intangible assets were determined to have a 5 year life. Accordingly, these intangible assets will be amortized over a 5 year period starting September 28, 2004. The pro-forma adjustment reflects this amortization over the
periods presented.



An income tax expense has been recorded on the goodwill
valuation of $12.9 million over a 15 year life. All periods presented include this tax charge.



(6) LIQUIDITYThe Company has incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations in every fiscal period since 1996 and has an accumulated deficit, including non-cash equity charges, of $53 million as of
March 31, 2005. For the nine months ended March 31, 2005 the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $9.3 million, which includes negative cash flows from operations of approximately $9.0 million. Management anticipates that operating
losses and negative cash flows will continue in the near future and anticipates that losses will decrease somewhat from current levels as a result of the benefits of consolidating the operations acquired from Vertical Networks on September 28,
2004. The Company anticipates that it, with available cash of $5.4 million at March 31, 2005 combined with increased revenues and cash-flows, will meet its anticipated cash requirements during and through our fiscal 2005 and next fiscal year.
The Company expects to increase its revenue and cash flows in the foreseeable future as the result of the acquisition of the InstantOffice product line from Vertical Networks and its resellers and systems integrators.



There can be no assurance that the available cash and increased revenues will be sufficient
to meet the Companys cash requirements. If the

Company is unable to satisfy such cash requirements from these sources, the Companys ability to continue as a going
concern and to achieve its intended business objectives could be adversely affected. In such case, the Company could be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as reducing or delaying marketing and promotional activities, reducing or
delaying capital expenditures, developing restructuring plans to reduce discretionary costs deemed nonessential, and selling additional shares of the Companys capital stock. Additionally, changes in circumstances could necessitate that the
Company seek additional debt or equity capital. There can be no assurance that any such additional financing will be available when needed or on acceptable terms to allow the Company to successfully achieve its operating plan or fund future
investment in its TeleVantage and InstantOffice product lines.

PREFERRED STOCK



Prior to September 28, 2004, the Company had
authorized 11,433,600 shares of preferred stock par value $1.00 per share, of which 5,427,002 shares had been issued as of June 30, 2004. On December 6, 1994, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the designation and reservation
of 50,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Participating Preferred Stock subject to a Rights Agreement dated December 23, 1994. The reserved shares were to be automatically adjusted to reserve such number of shares as may be
required in accordance with the provisions of the Series A Participating Preferred Stock and the Rights Agreement. The Rights Agreement was to expire in December 2004. In connection with the issuance of the Series B preferred stock in 2001, the
Companys Board of Directors terminated the Rights Agreement effective December 31, 2001.



2001 Financing Series B Preferred Stock.In August and November 2001, Artisoft issued and sold an aggregate of 2,800,000 shares of its Series B convertible preferred stock to investors in a private placement at
a per share price equal to $2.50. The investors also received warrants to purchase up to 466,666 shares of Artisofts common stock at an initial per share exercise price equal to $1.50. Gross proceeds from the financing were $7.0 million.



Each share of Series B preferred stock was initially convertible into
one-sixth of a share of common stock, subject to adjustment. Under certain circumstances, Artisoft has the right to effect the automatic conversion of the series B preferred stock to common stock in the event the closing per share bid price of the
common stock exceeds $30.00 for 30 consecutive trading days. Prior to financing transaction of September 28, 2004 all shares of Series B preferred stock were converted to common stock.



The holders of the Series B preferred stock, as a class, were also initially entitled to
elect two directors of the Company. In August 2002, the holders of our series B preferred stock exercised this right, in part, to elect Robert J. Majteles as an Artisoft director.



The warrants will expire on September 30, 2006. The expiration date, the per share exercise price and the number of shares issuable
upon exercise of the warrants were initially subject to adjustment in certain events. Following the September 2004 financing, the per share exercise price of the warrants is $1.1386, and the per share exercise price and the number of shares issuable
upon exercise of the warrants are no longer subject to adjustment. The warrants have a call provision that provides that if the closing per share bid price of the common stock exceeds $45.00 for 30 consecutive trading days and certain other
conditions are met, Artisoft has the right to require the warrant holders to exercise their warrants for common stock.



The closing of the issuance and sale of shares of common stock in the September 2002 financing resulted in anti-dilution adjustments to the Series B preferred stock and
the warrants issued in Artisofts 2001 financing. As a result of these anti-dilution adjustments, each share of Series B preferred stock was convertible into approximately 2.38 shares of common stock. Prior to the issuance and sale of shares of
common stock under this agreement each share of Series B preferred stock was convertible into one share of common stock. In addition, the per share exercise price of each warrant was reduced from $3.75 to $1.05. These adjustments resulted in a
significant increase in potential common shares outstanding. Prior to the September 2004 financing, the remaining outstanding Series B preferred stock was converted into common stock at a rate of approximately 1.22 shares of common stock for each
share of Series B preferred stock.



In September 2003, Artisoft issued and sold
an aggregate of 2,627,002 shares of its Series C convertible preferred stock to investors in a private placement at a per share price equal to $1.50. The investors also received warrants to purchase up to 2,627,002 shares of Artisofts common
stock at a per share exercise price equal to $1.88. Gross proceeds from the financing were $3.9 million.



The shares of Series C preferred stock were initially convertible into a like number of shares of common stock, subject to adjustment. Each share of Series C preferred stock generally received .8152 of a vote, subject
to adjustment, when voting on matters presented for the approval of Artisofts stockholders. The holders of the Series C preferred stock, as a class, were also entitled to elect a director of the Company. In September 2003, the holders of our
Series C preferred stock exercised this right to elect Steven C. Zahnow as an Artisoft director.



The holders of Series C preferred stock were entitled, before any distributions were made to the holders of common stock, to an amount equal to $1.50 per share, subject to adjustment. For purposes of this liquidation
preference, the Series C preferred stock ranked on a parity with the Series B preferred stock, which carried a similar liquidation preference in the amount of $2.50 per share.



The holders of the Series C preferred stock were entitled to receive dividends only when and if declared by the board of directors of the
Company. Any such dividends were to be paid to the holders of the Series C preferred stock and Series B preferred stock prior to any distribution to holders of common stock, on a per share basis equal to the number of shares of common stock into
which each share of preferred stock is then convertible.

The warrants will expire on June 27, 2010. The expiration date, the per share exercise price and the number of
shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants were initially subject to adjustment in certain events. Following the September 2004 financing, the per share exercise price of the warrants is $1.1386, and the per share exercise price and the number of
shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants are no longer subject to adjustment. Prior to the September 2004 financing, the remaining outstanding Series C preferred stock was converted into common stock at a rate of one share of common stock for
each share of Series C preferred stock.

Item 2.MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



You should read the following discussion together with the consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form
10-Q. This item, including, without limitation, the information set forth under the heading Future Results, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those included in such forward-looking statements. Factors which could cause actual results to differ materially include those set
forth under Risk Factors commencing on page 19, as well as those otherwise discussed in this section and elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. See Forward-Looking Statements.



RESTATEMENT



Our previously issued consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2005 and the related consolidated statements of operations for the
three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2005 and cash flows for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 have been restated.



The following Managements Discussion and Analysis has been restated to reflect the changes more fully described within note 2 of the notes to restated
consolidated financial statements.



Our discussion and analysis of our
financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Areas where significant judgments are made include, but are not limited to revenue recognition and values attributed to the assets and liabilities acquired pertaining to the acquisition of Vertical
Networks. The estimated values of current assets and liabilities were based upon their historical costs in the hands of the seller on the date of acquisition due to their short-term nature. Property and equipment was also estimated based upon its
historical cost as there was no appreciated real estate and the historical costs of the office equipment, furniture and machinery most closely approximated fair value. This amount may be adjusted subsequently when we complete our assessment of the
property and equipment that will be utilized in the combined operations and those that will be disposed. The estimated value of deferred revenue was based upon the guidance in EITF 01-03, Accounting in a Business Combination for Deferred Revenue
of an Acquiree, and was calculated as the estimated cost for the Company to fulfill the contractual obligations acquired under various customer contracts plus a fair value profit margin, which was based upon an independent valuation. Intangible
assets totalling $4.3 million were identified and valued based upon our independent valuation. These assets consist primarily of customer contracts, customer relationship and acquired technology. The excess purchase price of $12.7 million was
allocated to goodwill based upon the value acquired in the form of additional scale and economies of scale resulting from the size of the combined entity, and the value of the assembled workforce, especially the engineering and sales talent
personnel who have continued as part of the acquired operation.



Actual results
could differ materially from any one or all of these estimates discussed above. For a more detailed explanation of the judgments made in these areas, please refer to our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2004, as filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 13, 2004.



Summary



The following is a summary of the areas that management believes are
important in understanding the results of the fiscal quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2005. This summary is not a substitute for the detail provided in the following pages or for the consolidated financial statements and notes that
appear elsewhere in this document.



We have
two families of products:



| |  | TeleVantage, a software-based phone system that runs on a Windows server platform and Intel communications hardware, TeleVantage has an optional Call Center module, and add-ons,
such as TeleVantage Conference Manager, TeleVantage Call Center Scoreboard, TeleVantage Call Classifier, TeleVantage Smart Dialer and TeleVantage Persistent Pager and TeleVantage Enterprise Manager. All modules are fully integrated.
|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | InstantOffice, a software based phone system that runs on a Windows server platform and proprietary hardware. InstantOffice also supports software applications such as custom IVR
applications, and telecommunications network management applications including MultiSite Manager and MultiSite Reporter which facilitate remote management of large networks of InstantOffice installations.
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



We sell our products through distributors, resellers and system integrators such as Paracon,
AT&T, Fujitsu and IBM. We engage in alliances with systems integrators and other technology vendors to assist us in selling and marketing our products. Most of our customers use resellers or systems integrators to implement our products, and
these resellers and systems integrators can significantly influence our customers purchasing decisions.



15

##### Table of Contents

Revenues



Generally:We derive revenues from product revenue, which primarily consists of software and includes related hardware in some cases.



Most of our products from both product families are sold with perpetual licenses and some are
also sold with maintenance contracts. Typically, these are sold on an annual basis. As the maintenance contracts near expiration, we contact customers or our resellers contact them to renew their contracts as applicable. We typically provide limited
warranty on hardware when it is sold in conjunction with our software, and occasionally sell extended warranties to customers.



The timing and amount of our net revenues has been, and is expected to continue to be, influenced by a number of factors, including the following:



| |  | Product design, including our software and our bundled hardware and services where applicable;
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | The demand for our current products;
|- |  | ------------------------------------



| |  | Acquisitions made by us, such as the acquisition of Vertical Networks;
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | The length of our sales cycle; and
|- |  | ----------------------------------



| |  | Budgeting cycles of our customers.
|- |  | ----------------------------------



For the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2005, Artisoft had total net revenue of approximately $4.2 million and $11.8 million compared to total net revenue
for the same period in fiscal year 2004 of approximately $2.5 million and $6.4 million. The increase of



approximately $1.7 million and $5.4 million in revenue from year to year is mostly attributable to the acquisition of Vertical Networks, which was completed on September 28, 2004. Our results include two full
quarters of revenue and expenses for the nine months ending March 31, 2005 related to Vertical Networks. We expect revenues to increase in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2005, largely, as a result of the acquisition of Vertical Networks,
Inc.



Sales by Geography:We sell our products in North America (U.S.
and Canada); EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) and LA/AP (Latin America and Asia Pacific). For the quarter ended March 31, 2005, 9.6% of our net revenue (or $0.4 million) was generated outside of North America. We anticipate that as we
increase our investment in sales and marketing, particularly in EMEA, net revenues generated outside North America will increase as a percentage of total revenues because we expect our market share in EMEA to increase more rapidly than our market
share in North America.



Cost of Sales



Cost of sales is generally comprised of royalties paid to software developers and the cost
of hardware produced for us by contract manufacturers or purchased by us for resale to our customers.



Gross margins for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2005 decreased to 78.0% and 81.2%, compared to 97.1% and 97.3% in the same periods in the prior fiscal year. This decrease was primarily the result of
the cost of hardware included in the net revenue. The cost of sales for InstantOffice products, which were acquired from Vertical Networks, includes several elements of telecommunication hardware, both of its own design and the design of third
parties, all of which is manufactured by third parties. The Company expects over time, to decrease its sales of these hardware products and believes this will contribute to an increase in the Companys gross margins.

Operating Expenses



Our operating expenses are comprised of:



| |  | Sales and marketing costs, which consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits for sales and marketing employees, travel and marketing programs;
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Product development costs, which consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits for engineering and technical personnel;
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | General and administrative expenses, which generally represent salaries and employee benefits costs of corporate, finance, human resource and administrative personnel, as well as
professional fees, insurance costs, consulting fees and administrative expenses;
|- |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Non-cash, stock based compensation expense; and
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------



| |  | Amortization of intangible assets acquired from Vertical Networks, Inc.
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



Operating expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 increased approximately 211%, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.



Sales and marketing expenses increased by 134.7%, compared to the same period in the prior
fiscal year, due to costs associated with an increase in personnel in the sales and marketing organization resulting from the acquisition of Vertical Networks sales and marketing operations.



Expenses in product development increased by 233.7% during the quarter ended March 31,
2005 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. This increase reflects an increase in expenses due to increased development costs resulting from the acquisition of Vertical Networks product development operations.



General and administrative expenses increased approximately 244.4% compared to the same
period in the prior fiscal year. This increase reflects an increase in expenses due to additional G&A costs resulting from the acquisition of Vertical Networks operations.



We expect operating expenses in all areas to decrease slightly in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005 from third quarter levels. The
increases during the third quarter were expected as a result of the acquisition of Vertical Networks operations. However, the Company believes that it will be able to reduce some of these additional operating expenses beginning in the fourth quarter
and over time as redundant operations are eliminated and overhead cost elements are reduced.



Results of Operations



Principal
Factors; Outlook



Our operating performance for the three and nine months
ended March 31, 2005 was mixed when compared to the same periods of 2004. Our revenues increased significantly as a result of the acquisition of the Instant Office product line. Our earnings for both the three and nine months, however, declined
significantly when compared to the same periods of 2004. Though not establishing a trend, the principal factors affecting this change were:



| |  | The deferral of $7.5 million and $13.1 million of revenue, and $4.3 million and $7.8 million of cost of sales for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, relating to
product sales linked to support contracts acquired from Vertical Networks, Inc., which resulted in the deferral of $3.2 million and $5.3 million of gross profit and earnings for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005;
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Decrease in gross margins by 19.1% from 97.1% to 78.0% and by 16.1% from 97.3% to 81.2% as a result of the inclusion of hardware in the sales of products acquired from Vertical
Networks, Inc. for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005;
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Increased operating expenses of $ 5.2 million and $10.2 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005 related to the acquired operations of Vertical Networks, Inc.,
and $0.6 million and $1.2 million of stock based compensation expense occurring in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



We anticipate that the deferral of revenue, gross profit and earnings related to support contracts acquired from Vertical Networks, Inc. will decrease in both absolute
dollars and as a percentage of revenue over time. We also anticipate that both cost of goods and operating expenses will decrease as a percentage of revenue. Accordingly, we anticipate that our operations will improve during the fiscal year ending
June 30, 2006.

Net Product Revenue



Net product revenue was $4.2 million and $11.8 million for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2005, representing an increase of 68% and 84%, from $2.5
million and $6.4 million for the same fiscal periods from prior year.

distribute our products both domestically and internationally. International product revenue was $.4 million, or 10% of total revenue, for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and $.3 million, or 13% of total revenue, for the quarter ended
March 31, 2004.



International product revenue for the nine months ended
March 31, 2005 was $1.1 million, or 9% of total revenue, and $1.0 million, or 15% of total revenue, for the nine months ended March 31, 2004.



In January 2000, Artisoft entered into an OEM and Reseller Agreement with Toshiba. Also in January 2000, Artisoft entered into an agreement with Toshiba under which
Toshiba acquired 16,666 shares of Artisoft common stock at a price of $41.964 per share and was issued warrants for an additional 8,333 shares of Artisoft common stock at an exercise price of $41.964 per share. The fair market value of the Artisoft
common stock on the date of execution of the definitive agreement was $129. The difference between the issuance price and fair market value of the Artisoft common stock, and the fair value of the warrants (which were valued based upon the Black
Scholes Options Pricing Model) amounted to $2.3 million. Artisoft determined that the $2.3 million charge should be deferred within equity as Deferred Toshiba Equity Costs with an offsetting increase to additional paid-in capital and
should be amortized as a reduction of product revenue in proportion to revenue recognized relating to the OEM and reseller agreement. Each quarter, as revenue from Toshiba OEM sales are recognized, the balance of Deferred Toshiba Equity Costs are
reduced by an amount equal to 45.79% of Toshiba OEM sales, while revenues are reduced by the same amount. For the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and March 31, 2004 net product revenue was reduced by amortization of Deferred Toshiba Equity
Costs of $0.1 million and $0.1 million.

The decrease in gross profit as a
percentage of net revenue for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2005, compared to the corresponding period ended March 31, 2004, was due primarily to the addition of revenue from the InstantOffice product line. InstantOffice
revenue includes the resale of hardware products manufactured by third parties.

The increase in product development expenses as a percentage of total revenue for the
quarter ended March 31, 2005, compared to the corresponding period ended March 31, 2004, was due primarily to the acquisition of the operations of Vertical Networks. Product development expense grew 233% from March 2004 to March 2005. The
increase in product development expenses, during the quarter ended March 31, 2005, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2004, was driven by increased payroll expenses and employee related costs. Acquired operations added $1.8 million in

To date, our primary source of
liquidity has primary been private sales of common and preferred stock. The Company does not currently have any credit facility established and does not hold any financing debt.



We believe that our cash resources are adequate to meet our short term requirements. In the longer term, we believe that revenues will
increase and after taking into account the anticipated elimination of redundant operations and the reduction of overhead cost elements following our acquisition of Vertical Networks (which initiatives we may not successfully implement and the
result, which may not be as significant as we expect) that operating expenses will decrease as a percentage of net revenue, thereby reducing future operating losses. However, the rate at which these revenues may increase will be highly dependent on,
among other things, the overall telecommunications industry capital-spending environment, the rate of market acceptance of the TeleVantage and InstantOffice products and the success of our strategic relationships including those with IBM, AT&T
and Toshiba. See Risk Factors below.



If we require additional cash
to meet future requirements, or if the level of growth of TeleVantage and InstantOffice revenue is insufficient to meet our long-term business objectives or if we determine we require additional capital for other business reasons, such as to fund
acquisitions or other strategic initiatives, we will need to pursue additional equity or debt financing. Such financings may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all, may significantly affect our stockholders, including for example, by
substantially diluting their ownership interest in Artisoft.



We used cash of
$9.0 million to fund operating activities during the nine months ended March 31, 2005. The cash used in operating activities was due primarily to a net loss of $9.3 million, offset by depreciation and amortization of $.9 million, and
amortization of deferred Toshiba equity costs of $.2 million, and $.1 million relating to a non-cash reserve charge. At March 31, 2005, compared to June 30, 2004, trade receivables increased by $6.2 million, inventory increased by $1.2
million and prepaid expenses of $.2 million and an increase in deferred revenue of $6.8 million after deducting the increase in related deferred costs.



Working capital, consisting of total current assets minus current liabilities, was $4.0 million at March 31, 2005, and includes $1.0 million of restricted cash
relating to the acquisition of Vertical Networks that was paid at closing and is held in escrow to secure Vertical Networks indemnification obligations to Artisoft. This compared to a working capital deficit of $(.1) million at June 30,
2004, representing an increase of $4.1 million. The increase in working capital at March 31, 2005 reflects an increase of $2.7 million in cash and cash equivalents. The increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.7 million was
primarily a result of our receipt of $26.2 million net of transaction costs, from the sale of common stock in our September 2004 financing, less $15 million used in investing activities primarily for the acquisition of Vertical Networks. Working
capital also increased due to increases of $6.2 million in trade receivables, $1.2 in inventory and $1.8 million in current deferred costs relating to revenue that is deferred. Increases in working capital were offset by an increase of $3.4 million
in accounts payable, $4.8 million in current deferred revenue and $.7 million in accrued liabilities.



The Company leases office, product packaging, storage space and equipment under noncancelable operating lease agreements expiring through 2005. The table below also includes those contractual payments acquired on the
acquisition of Vertical Networks on September 28, 2004.

asset purchase agreement entered into on September 23, 2004. Artisoft has also received a patent license for the use
of all of Vertical Networks patents and patent applications other than Vertical Networks rights under specified patents that do not relate to the business purchased by Artisoft. In addition, Artisoft assumed specified liabilities of
Vertical Networks.



The purchase price for Vertical Networks consisted of:
$13.5 million in cash, paid at closing except for $1.0 million held in escrow to secure Vertical Networks indemnification obligations to Artisoft, the assumption of most liabilities of Vertical Networks and up to $5.5 million in cash payable
under an earn-out provision in an amount equal to the first $5.5 million of non-refundable software license revenues received in cash by Artisoft from CVS/pharmacy, Inc. with respect to various types of Vertical Networks software to be used by CVS
in connection with a rapid prescription refill project that it plans to roll out to its stores and other projects.



The acquisition was financed with a portion of the proceeds from a $27.5 million common stock financing also completed on September 28, 2004 and shortly thereafter,
pursuant to which Artisoft sold a total 24,159,468 shares of its common stock at a per share purchase price of $1.1386 to several investors, including M/C Venture Partners. In connection with, or prior to the financing, the holders of all shares of
Artisofts preferred stock converted those shares into common stock. Following the issuance and sale of common stock in the financing and the conversions of Artisofts preferred stock to common stock, M/C Venture Partners is now the
largest beneficial holder of Artisofts common stock, with a 51.69% beneficial ownership interest.



Artisoft was required to register, under the Securities Act of 1933, the shares issued and sold under the stock purchase agreement for resale by the investors. Artisoft agreed to file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission the registration statement with respect to this registration by November 12, 2004 and to use its best efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective on or before December 31, 2004. Artisoft has not yet filed the
registration statement. Because the registration statement was not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to March 31, 2005 or if the registration statement, after being filed and declared effective, ceases to be effective and available for
any continuous period that exceeds 30 days or for one or more periods that exceed in the aggregate 60 days in any 12-month period, Artisoft will be required to pay each investor in the financing liquidated damages in an amount equal to 1% of the
aggregate purchase price paid by the investor under the purchase agreement (not to exceed 9% of such purchase price, in the aggregate). At this date Artisoft is obligated to pay some amount of liquidated damages, since the registration statement was
not declared effective at March 31, 2005. The estimated monthly cost for each month of delay in the effectiveness of the registration is $273,000. Artisoft has also made other customary agreements regarding this registration, including matters
relating to indemnification; maintenance of the registration statement; payment of expenses; and compliance with state blue sky laws.



Artisoft also agreed to several negative covenants under the stock purchase agreement. Artisofts negative covenants relate to obligations not to, without the prior
consent of M/C Venture Partners, enter into a transaction involving a change in control of Artisoft; incur indebtedness in excess of $3.0 million; create any security with an equity component unless that security is junior to the common stock or,
subject to specified exceptions, issue any equity securities; transfer its intellectual property; repurchase, redeem or pay dividends on any shares of capital stock (subject to limited exceptions); grant stock options that are not authorized by a
vote of the board of directors or its compensation committee; liquidate or dissolve; change the size of Artisofts board of directors; amend Artisofts certificate of incorporation or bylaws; change the nature of Artisofts business;
or alter the voting rights of shares of Artisofts capital stock in a disparate manner.



As a result of the sale of common stock under the stock purchase agreement, the exercise price of all of the warrants to purchase an aggregate of 466,664 shares of common stock issued in Artisofts 2001 financing
and all of the warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,627,002 shares of common stock issued in Artisofts 2003 financing was reduced to $1.1386 per share pursuant to the terms of those warrants. Immediately prior to the sale of common stock
under the purchase agreement, the exercise price of the warrants issued in 2001 was $1.50 per share, and the exercise price of the warrants issued in 2003 was $1.88 per share. The reduction of the exercise price of these warrants resulted in the
recording of a non-cash deemed dividend equal to approximately $1.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005.



Our common stock trades on the over-the-counter electronic bulletin board, also referred to as the OTCBB. The listing of our common stock on the OTCBB may reduce the
price of our common stock and the levels of liquidity available to our stockholders. In addition, the listing of our common stock on the OTCBB could materially adversely affect our access to the capital markets, and the limited liquidity and reduced
price of our common stock could materially adversely affect our ability to raise capital through alternative financing sources on terms acceptable to us or at all. Our listing on the OTCBB may have other negative implications, including the
potential loss of confidence by suppliers, customers and employees, the loss of institutional investor interest and fewer business development opportunities.



We intend to continue investing in the sales, marketing and development of our TeleVantage and InstantOffice products. We may incur increases in research and development
expenditures in response to customer requirements for features or functionality in future releases of the product.



Risk Factors



We
caution you that the following important factors, among others, in the future could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us in filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, press releases, communications with investors and oral statements. Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and in any other public statements we make may turn out to be wrong. They can
be affected by inaccurate assumptions we might make or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Many factors mentioned in the discussion below are important in determining future results. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We have a history of losses and expect to incur future losses.



We had operating losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and in each of the last
eleven fiscal years. We also had negative cash flow from operating activities in the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and in six out of the last ten fiscal years. If our revenues do not increase significantly, without a corresponding increase in
expenses, we may never achieve profitability, on a sustained basis or at all, or generate positive cash flow in the future. In that case our business will fail. We expect to incur significant future operating losses and negative cash flows. Vertical
Networks also incurred operating losses in each of its last three fiscal years, and had negative cash flow from operating activity many of which were acquired when the Company acquired most of the assets of Vertical Networks. The operations acquired
from Vertical Networks may not generate profits or positive cash flow.



Failure to successfully integrate the acquired operations of Vertical Networks could have a material adverse effect on our combined operations.



Our decision to acquire the operations of Vertical Networks was based in part, from our belief in the growth opportunities and cost savings we hope to achieve from the
integration of Vertical Networks operations into our operations and our plans to expand our product offerings to our customers and future customers. Our success in realizing these and other anticipated benefits could be adversely affected by a
number of factors, many of which are outside our control. These factors include:



| |  | difficulties or unexpected costs in integrating the existing operations of Vertical Networks with our own, including information systems, networks and administrative functions;
|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | difficulties in reconciling our accounting processes and reporting controls with those of Vertical Networks, including, without limitation, policies regarding revenue recognition;
and
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | difficulties integrating the development, marketing and sales of Vertical Networks server-based phone system, InstantOffice, with our own software-based phone system,
TeleVantage.
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Failure to successfully, integrate our business
with the acquired operations of Vertical Networks may adversely affect our relationships with, among others, Toshiba, CVS Pharmacy, Inc. and Staples, Inc. or otherwise adversely affect our existing business. We may not realize the anticipated
benefits from the acquisition of Vertical Networks.



Our revenues will be
primarily generated through the sales of only two product lines.



Our
future revenues will be derived from the sales of only two product lines, TeleVantage and InstantOffice. These products are relatively new in the emerging market for software-based and server-based phone systems, respectively, and it is difficult to
predict when or if sales of TeleVantage and InstantOffice will increase substantially or at all. We cannot assure you that these or any new products, if any, will meet with market acceptance. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that we will be in a
position to become competitive with only two product lines. Failure to identify and develop a commercially viable number of products lines that are sought by the market could adversely affect our growth opportunities and, ultimately, our viability.
Because we do not have a diverse product offering that would enable us to sustain our business while seeking to develop new types of products, our business may not be able to recover if we experience a steep decline in demand for either of our two
current product offerings.



We may experience difficulties marketing our
products to a new customer segment represented by large enterprise customers.



With the acquisition of Vertical Networks, we now market a significant amount of products, primarily InstantOffice and its family of products, to several large enterprise customers, including CVS and Staples. We have little experience
marketing our products to, or establishing and maintaining customer relationships with, such large enterprise customers. If we are unable to maintain what are essentially new customers, it would likely result in a decline in sales of InstantOffice,
which would likely have a material adverse effect on our ability to separate revenues. If we are unable to add additional large enterprise customers, we may have difficulty in our efforts to increase our revenues and achieve profitability.



We may need additional working capital, the lack of which would likely have
a significant negative impact on our current level of operations.



We may
need additional capital in the future to fund our operations, finance investments in product development and corporate infrastructure, expand in our various geographic markets and respond to competitive pressures and opportunities for growth.
Failure to obtain additional funding could prevent us from making expenditures that are needed to allow us to grow or maintain our operations. We do not currently have



22



---

##### Table of Contents

any lending arrangements with any banks or other third parties, nor do we have any commitments to obtain such an
arrangement. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available on favorable terms, or at all. If funds are not available when required for our working capital needs or other transactions, our ability to carry out our business plan
could be adversely affected, and we may be required to scale back our growth and operations to reflect the extent of available funding. If we are able to arrange for credit facilities from lenders, the debt instruments are likely to include
limitations on our ability to incur other indebtedness, to pay dividends, to create liens, to sell or purchase our capital stock, to sell assets or to make acquisitions or enter into other transactions. Such restrictions may adversely affect our
ability to finance our future operations or capital needs or to engage in other business activities. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our stockholders will be reduced. These
securities would likely have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of our common stockholders. In addition, we may seek to obtain a working capital or other traditional loan facility from a bank or other lending source. The inability to
obtain substantial increases in our working capital resources will likely have a material adverse affect on our revenues and profits.



Our revenues are highly concentrated among a small number of customers and the loss of one of these customers would harm our business and prospects, perhaps
materially.



A significant portion of our revenues is generated by a small
number of customers. If we were to lose one or more of these customers, our revenues would decline and our business and prospects would be materially harmed. We expect that even if we are successful in developing relationships with additional
customers, our revenues will continue to be concentrated. We cannot assure you that we will be able to retain any of our current customers or that we will be able to obtain new customers. Paracon accounts for 19.2% and 20.9% for the three and nine
months ended March 31, 2005, while CVS accounts for 69% of Deferred Revenue as of March 31, 2005.



We have only one significant original equipment manufacturer relationship, and we may not be able to establish relationships with similar original equipment manufacturers.



Our relationship with Toshiba represents our only arrangement to integrate any of our
products with the products of an original equipment manufacturer (or OEM). We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain this relationship or establish new relationships with other OEMs. Currently, our revenues from this OEM
arrangement accounts are $.1 million and .3 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005.



Our OEM agreement with Toshiba expired in February 2005.



Our written contract with Toshiba expired in February 2005. If we do not renew this agreement our revenues may be adversely affected. Loss of this key relationship may
send a negative message to other OEMs concerning computer telephony products generally or our products specifically. We are in the process of negotiating the renewal of this agreement. However, we cannot assure you that Toshiba will renew its
contract with us when it expires or that, if it is renewed, it will be renewed on the same terms or on terms that are as favorable to us as the existing contract.



We do not have long-term contracts with a majority of our customers, which renders our sales channels particularly unstable.



We do not have any long-term agreements with our customers, who acquire
our products pursuant to purchase orders at prices that fluctuate frequently. Accordingly, our customers are not contractually obligated to buy from us in the future. Our customers are not required to make minimum purchases from us, or make purchase
at any particular time and are free to purchase from our competitors. Also, our customers can stop purchasing our products at any time without penalty. If our customers do not purchase our products in sufficient quantities or on a recurring basis,
our business and prospects will suffer. Even if our customers are willing to purchase our products, we cannot assure you that we will be able to sell our products at prices that are favorable to us.



We rely on others to promote and sell our products, and their failure to do so may
seriously harm our business.



We depend on distributors and resellers to
market and sell our products. If distributors and resellers in the software industry do not focus their marketing efforts on software- or server-based phone systems or focus on products competitive with TeleVantage or InstantOffice, our sales will
be materially adversely affected. Failure of distributors and resellers to focus on software- or server-based phone systems may send a negative signal to current and potential customers concerning the viability of our industry or our product
offerings. We depend upon the availability of distribution outlets to market our products. Loss of these outlets will harm our ability to broaden our brand acceptance and enhance our reputation in the market. In addition, our operating results would
be adversely affected if one of our major distributors, resellers or original equipment manufacturers failed to timely and fully pay us for the products they purchased from us for resale or integration, as the case may be.



If software- and server-based phone systems do not achieve widespread acceptance, we may
not be able to continue our operations.



The market for software- and
server-based business phone systems is relatively new and rapidly evolving. Businesses have invested substantial resources in the existing telecommunications infrastructure, including traditional private telephone systems, and may be unwilling to
replace these systems in the near term or at all. Businesses also may be reluctant to adopt computer telephony systems because of their concern about the current limitations of data networks, including the Internet. For example, end-users sometimes
experience delays in receiving calls and reduced voice quality during calls when routing calls over data networks. Moreover, businesses that begin to route calls over the same networks



23

##### Table of Contents

that currently carry only their data also may experience these problems if the networks do not have sufficient capacity
to carry all of these communications at the same time. We cannot assure you that businesses will migrate toward computer telephony systems or that computer telephony systems will gain widespread acceptance.



Disruption in supplies of certain essential components will impair our ability to manage
our inventory with distributors and resellers.



As a result of the
acquisition of Vertical Networks on September 28, 2004, we now design and distribute the hardware on which InstantOffice operates, including phones and custom server hardware. If we are unable to obtain supplies necessary to the manufacture of
our hardware, our ability to maintain inventory with our distributors and resellers will be harmed. Continued sales of InstantOffice are dependent upon continued availability of the commercially available components used to manufacture the custom
hardware incorporated into the product, as well as continued cooperation by the manufacturers involved in assembling the custom servers used by the product. We may not be able to secure enough components at reasonable prices or of acceptable quality
to build new products in a timely manner in the quantities or configurations needed. Accordingly, our revenues and gross margins could suffer until other sources can be developed. Our operating results would also be adversely affected if,
anticipating greater demand than actually develops, we commit to the purchase of more components than we need. We cannot assure you that we will not encounter these problems in the future. Although in many cases we use standard parts and components
for our products, certain components are presently available only from a single source or limited sources. We may not be able to diversify sources in a timely manner, which could harm our ability to deliver products to customers and seriously impact
present and future sales.



We do not manufacture the hardware utilized by
InstantOffice and hold only limited amounts of inventory for purposes of replacements of systems or parts as required for field support. Should we experience a disruption in the supply of these components, it could have a material adverse effect on
our ability to sell and service our InstantOffice product line. The fact that we do not own our manufacturing facilities could have an adverse impact on the supply of our products and on operating results. Financial problems of contract
manufacturers on whom we rely, or reservation of manufacturing capacity by other companies, inside or outside of our industry, could either limit supply or increase costs.



Undetected flaws in our software may damage our reputation, cause loss of customers and increase customer support costs.



Telecommunications products as complex as TeleVantage and InstantOffice may contain
undetected errors or flaws. The presence of any such errors or flaws could result in damage to our reputation, loss of customers, delay of market acceptance of our products or all of these consequences. Our customers or we may find errors in
TeleVantage or InstantOffice or any new products after commencement of commercial shipments. In addition, if our products are flawed, or are difficult to use, customer support costs could rise. If we are unable to timely and effectively correct
flaws in our products, we will lose customers and our ability to make future sales will be adversely affected. If we are unable to produce reliable products, our reputation will suffer, perhaps irreparably, and our business could fail.



Malfunctions or errors in third-party technology may limit our ability to sell our
products and may damage the reputation of our products, perhaps materially.



TeleVantage operates on hardware manufactured by Intel Corporation. We are dependent on the reliability of this hardware, and to the extent the hardware has defects it will affect the performance of TeleVantage. If the hardware becomes
unreliable, does not perform in a manner that is acceptable to our customers or becomes more expensive, sales of TeleVantage could decline. Because our products run only on Microsoft software products and use other Microsoft Corporation
technologies, including the Microsoft Data Engine, we must depend on the reliability and quality of such products and technologies. Errors or vulnerabilities in Microsoft products could impair sales of our products. Our customers may associate
unreliability of the hardware and flaws in Microsoft products with a lack of quality of our products, which may cause us to lose customers and hurt future sales. Our ability to remedy malfunctions or errors will depend on the timeliness and
availability of repair solutions from the manufacturers. Future success of our products and any new products will depend on the ability of our hardware and software manufacturers to produce reliable products in the future.



Many of our products incorporate technology licensed or acquired from third parties.



We sell products in markets that are characterized by rapid technological
changes, evolving industry standards, frequent new product introductions, short product life cycles and increasing levels of integration. Our ability to keep pace with this market depends on our ability to obtain technology from third parties on
commercially reasonable terms to allow our products to remain in a competitive posture. If licenses to such technology are not available on commercially reasonable terms and conditions, and we cannot otherwise integrate such technology, our products
or our customers products could become unmarketable or obsolete, and we could lose market share. In such instances, we could also incur substantial unanticipated costs or scheduling delays to develop substitute technology to deliver
competitive products.



We are subject to risks associated with international
operations.



We conduct business globally. International sales accounted
for approximately 10% of net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2005, and 15%, 12%, and 8% of net sales for the years ended June 30, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. We also acquire various raw materials and components from
international suppliers. We intend to expand our presence in international markets, and we cannot assure you that we will compete successfully in international markets or meet the service and support needs of foreign customers. Our future results
could be harmed by a variety of factors relating to international operations, including:



| |  | difficulties in enforcing agreements and collecting receivables through the legal systems of foreign countries;
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | fluctuations in exchange rates, which may affect product demand and adversely affect the profitability in U.S. dollars of products and services provided by us in foreign markets

| |  | difficulty protecting our intellectual property in foreign countries.
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



We are in breach of certain provisions of the stock purchase agreement and may be subject to liquidated damages or liability for breach of contract.



We agreed in the September 29, 2004 stock purchase agreement we entered into to file
with the Securities Exchange Commission the registration statement with respect to this registration by November 12, 2004 and to use our best efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective on or before December 31, 2004.
We are currently in breach of these conditions. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement if the registration statement is not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to March 31, 2005 or if the registration statement, after being
declared effective, ceases to be effective and available for any continuous period that exceeds 30 days or for one or more periods that exceed in the aggregate 60 days in any 12-month period, we will be required to pay each investor in the financing
liquidated damages in an amount equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by the investor under the stock purchase agreement (not to exceed 9.0% of such purchase price, in the aggregate). At this date it is likely that Artisoft will be
required to pay some amount of liquidated damages since the registration was not effective by March 31, 2005. In addition, we have made other representations, warranties and covenants that, if not satisfied, may subject our company to claims
for indemnification, liability for breach of contract or other common law remedies.



Restrictive covenants in the stock purchase agreement may limit our ability to pursue our business strategies.



We have agreed under the stock purchase agreement that we will not, without the prior consent of M/C Venture Partners, take any of the following actions:



| |  | enter into a transaction involving a change in control;
|- |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  | incur indebtedness in excess of $3.0 million;
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------



| |  | create any security with an equity component unless that security is junior to the common stock or, subject to specified exceptions, issue any equity securities;
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | transfer our intellectual property;
|- |  | -----------------------------------

| | repurchase, redeem or pay dividends on any shares of capital stock (subject to limited exceptions);
|- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | grant stock options that are not authorized by a vote of our board of directors or our compensation committee;
|- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | liquidate or dissolve;
|- | ----------------------



| | change the size of our board of directors;
|- | ------------------------------------------



| | amend our certificate of incorporation or bylaws;
|- | -------------------------------------------------



| | change the nature of our business; or
|- | -------------------------------------



| | alter the voting rights of shares of our capital stock in a disparate manner.
|- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



If we do not comply with these covenants, we could be subject to claims for indemnification, liability for breach of contract and other common law remedies. Compliance
with these covenants may limit our ability to pursue growth opportunities or address concerns with our operations. Our ability to comply with these covenants and restrictions may be affected by changes in the economic or business conditions or
events beyond our control.



We are not current in our periodic Exchange Act
reports and may fail to timely file periodic Exchange Act reports in the future.



We failed to timely file this Quarterly Report and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2004. We also failed to timely file an amendment to our Current Report on
Form 8-K originally filed September 29, 2004, to disclose the pro forma financial statements of Vertical Networks as well as the required financial statements of Vertical Networks, Inc. We filed the Quarterly Report for the quarter ended
September 30, 2004 on January 25, 2005, filed the Quarterly Report for the quarter ended December 31, 2004 on April 1, 2005 and filed our amendment to our Form 8-K on April 20, 2005. As a result, we will be ineligible to
register our securities on Form S-3 until twelve months after April 20, 2005, and ineligible to qualify for the safe harbor provisions for resale of restricted securities under Rule 144 of the Exchange Act. Inability to register securities on
Form S-3 or sell restricted securities under the safe harbor provisions of Rule 144 limits the liquidity of our securities and restricts the market for our securities.



Our market is highly competitive, and if we fail to compete successfully our products will not be successful.



We compete with other companies offering proprietary private branch exchanges, such as
Nortel Networks Corporation, Siemens AG, and Avaya, Inc. As we focus on the development and marketing of computer telephony systems, we face intense competition from providers of voice communications systems as well as from data networking companies
such as Cisco Systems, Inc. and 3Com Corp. In addition, because the market for our products is subject to rapid technological change, as the market evolves we may face competition in the future from companies that do not currently compete in the
software- and server-based phone systems market, including companies that currently compete in other sectors of the technology, communications and software industries. Competition from these potential market entrants may take many forms, including
offering products and applications similar to those we offer as part of a larger, bundled offering.



Several of these existing competitors have, and many of our future competitors may have, greater financial, personnel and capacity resources than us and as a result, these competitors may be in a stronger position to
respond quickly to potential acquisitions and other market opportunities, new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. Competitors with greater financial resources also may be able to offer lower prices, additional products or
services or other incentives that we cannot match or do not offer. We cannot predict with precision which competitors may enter our markets in the future or what form such competition may take. In order to effectively compete with any new market
entrant, we may need to make additional investments in our business or use more capital resources than our business currently requires.

Variability in product returns makes it difficult to predict our revenues.



We are exposed to the risk of product returns from our distributors, resellers and original
equipment manufacturers, which are estimated and recorded by us as a reduction in sales. Actual returns in any period may exceed our estimates, thereby making it difficult to predict our revenues. To the extent we may, in the future, introduce new
products, the predictability and timing of sales to end-users and the management of returns to us of unsold products by distributors and volume purchasers may become more complex.



The failure of our products to perform properly could result in a number of significant negative consequences to us, including a claim
for substantial damages, the diversion of managements attention and resources, and damage to our reputation. In addition, current and prospective customers may become discouraged from purchasing our products.



Because customers purchasing our products rely on them for the communication needs of their
respective businesses, we may be exposed to potential claims for damages, including special or consequential damages, as a result of an actual or perceived failure of our products. Our failure or inability to meet a customers expectations in
the performance of our products, or failure to address any failure or our products in a timely manner, regardless of our responsibility for failure, could:



| |  | result in a claim for substantial damages against us;
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  | divert managements attention and resources;
|- |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  | damages our business reputation; and
|- |  | ------------------------------------



| |  | discourage other customers from purchasing our products in the future.
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



We maintain certain contractual limitations of liability and insurance against some of these risks; however, there can be no assurance that such provisions would be
enforced or effective or that such insurance would be sufficient to cover the cost of damages. Further, we cannot assure you that insurance will continue to be available at commercially reasonable rates. If we are unable to rely on our contractual
limitations of liability and/or maintain sufficient insurance, our business could be harmed.



Our market is subject to changing preferences and technological change, and our failure to keep up with these changes would harm our business and prospects, perhaps materially.



The introduction of products incorporating new technologies and the emergence of new
industry standards could render our products obsolete and unmarketable. If we are unable to stay current or ahead of changes in the technology or industry standards, our business and prospects will suffer, perhaps materially. We cannot assure you
that we will be able to respond to rapid technological change, changing customer needs, frequent product introductions and evolving industry standards within the markets for computer telephony solutions. We may be unable to develop and introduce new
computer telephony products (including new releases and enhancements) on a timely basis that keep pace with technological developments and emerging industry standards and address the increasingly sophisticated needs of our customers.



Our former independent registered public accounting firm have indicated that we have
certain reportable conditions with our internal controls and as a result, our internal controls over financial reporting may not be effective.



Our former independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, advised management and the Audit Committee that, in connection with its review of our financial
statements for the three month period ended December 31, 2004, KPMG noted certain matters involving internal control and its operation that it considered to be material weakness that constituted reportable conditions under standards established
by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Reportable conditions are matters coming to an independent registered public accounting firms attention that, in their judgment, relate to significant deficiencies in the design or
operation of internal control and could adversely affect the organizations ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial data consistent with the assertions of management in the financial statements. KPMG advised management and
our Audit Committee that it considered the following to constitute reportable conditions related to internal control and their operations: our company did not have adequate staffing in our finance group with the appropriate level of experience to
effectively control the increased level of transaction activity, address the complex accounting matters and manage the increased financial reporting complexities resulting from the acquisition of Vertical Networks and the associated integration
activities.



We are also in the preliminary stages of preparing for our report
on internal controls over financial reporting, which must be filed with the annual report for our fiscal year ending June 30, 2007. The effectiveness of our controls and procedures may be limited by a variety of risks, including, without
limitation, faulty human judgment and simple errors, omissions, or mistakes; the collusion of two or more people or inappropriate management override of procedures; and imprecision in estimating and judging cost-benefit relationships in designing
controls. At this point in the process, it is not possible to ascertain whether this report will disclose any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in

##### Table of Contents

our internal controls over financial reporting or even whether we will be able to conclude, after such analysis, that our
internal controls are effective; however, our failure to timely file our periodic Exchange Act reports during the months of November and December of 2004, as well as the matters discussed above, resulted in our accountants determining that we have a
material weakness in our internal controls system. Upon a determination that we have such a material weakness, we will be required to report that our internal controls over financial accounting are not effective. If we fail to have effective
internal controls and procedures for financial reporting in place, we could be unable to provide timely and reliable financial information.



Our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective.



Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that as of March 31, 2005, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to
ensure that information we are required to disclose in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time specified by the SECs rules and forms. This determination was made, in part, because we have failed
to timely file our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended September 30, 2004, December 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005 and an amendment to our Current Report on Form 8-K originally filed September 29, 2004 to
disclose certain financial data in connection with our acquisition of Vertical Networks. Our management also believes that we currently lack sufficient resources to address the financial reporting related to significant and complex business
transactions.



Our stockholders could be adversely affected if M/C Venture
Partners use their influence in a manner adverse to our stockholders interests.



As of October 1, 2004 , M/C Venture Partners beneficially owned approximately 51.7% of our common stock. Based upon its substantial stock ownership and their director rights, M/C Venture Partners is in a position
to exert substantial influence over matters submitted to our stockholders for approval and our management and affairs, including the election and removal of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets.
In addition, M/C Venture Partners currently maintains the contractual right to nominate two members to our seven member board of directors and has a shared right with our board of directors to nominate an additional two members. Under the
September 29, 2004 stock purchase agreement, this shared nomination right increases to three directors on March 31, 2005. Accordingly, such concentration of ownership and ability to appoint members to our board may have the effect of
delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of our company, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to take control of
our company, which in turn could have a negative effect on the market price of our stock. These actions could also be adverse to our other stockholders interests.



We have adopted anti-takeover defenses that could make it difficult for another company to acquire control of our company or limit the
price investors might be willing to pay for our stock.



Certain provisions
of our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, could make a merger, tender offer or proxy contest involving us difficult, even if such events would be beneficial to the interests of our stockholders. These provisions include a classified board of
directors, restrictions on calling and holding stockholder meetings, and giving our board the ability to issue preferred stock and determine the rights and designations of the preferred stock at any time without stockholder approval. The rights of
the holders of our common stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any preferred stock that may be issued in the future. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with
possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from acquiring, a majority of our outstanding voting stock. These factors and
certain provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or otherwise delaying or preventing changes in control or changes in our management, including transactions in which our stockholders might
otherwise receive a premium over the fair market value of our common stock.



Our protection of intellectual property may not allow us to effectively prevent others from using our business model or our technology.



Our success is dependent upon our software code base, our programming methodologies and other intellectual property. We rely on copyright protection for such works of
authorship and trade secret protection for our technical know-how and other confidential information. We do not currently maintain patent protection for our business model or our technology and we currently do not plan significant patent
applications in the future. We generally enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees, vendors and consultants and with our clients and corporations with whom we have strategic relationships; however, the terms of these agreements vary
and may not provide us with adequate protection against non-disclosure. In addition, we attempt to maintain control over, access to, and distribution of our intellectual property and technical know-how; however, despite these efforts, unauthorized
parties may attempt to copy aspects of our service offering or the documentation used by us in delivering such services or to obtain and use other information that we regard as proprietary. Monitoring infringement of intellectual property rights is
difficult and we cannot be certain that the steps we have taken will prevent unauthorized use of our intellectual property and technical know-how, particularly in foreign countries where the laws may not protect our proprietary rights as fully as in
the United States. Accordingly, other parties, including competitors, may duplicate our product offerings.

We may become involved in intellectual property or other disputes that could cause us to incur substantial costs,
divert the efforts of our management, and require us to pay substantial damages or require us to obtain licenses, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.



Third parties, including competitors, may already have patents on inventions, or may obtain
patents on new inventions in the future, that could limit our ability to market and sell the products we provide now or new products we may offer in the future. Such third parties may claim that our products infringe their patent rights and assert
claims against us. In addition, we have agreed in some of our contracts, and may in the future agree in other contracts, to indemnify third parties for any expenses or liabilities resulting from claimed infringements of the proprietary rights of
third parties as it relates to the products we provide. We, or third parties that we are obligated to indemnify, may receive notifications alleging infringements of intellectual property rights relating to our business or the products previously
sold by us. Litigation with respect to patents or other intellectual property matters, whether with or without merit, could be time-consuming to defend, result in substantial costs and diversion of management and other resources, cause delays or
other problems in the marketing and sales of our products, or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, any or all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. If any
infringement claim is successful against us, we may be required to pay substantial damages or we may need to seek and obtain a license of the other partys intellectual property rights. We may be unable to obtain such a license on commercially
reasonable terms, if at all. We may be required to redesign those products that use the infringed technology. Moreover, we may be prohibited from selling, using, or providing any of our products that use the challenged intellectual property.
Although we carry general liability insurance, our insurance may not cover potential claims of this type or may not be adequate to cover us for all liability that may be imposed.



The integration of our new Chief Executive Officer and new directors into our management team may interfere with our operations.



William Y. Tauscher began been serving as our Chairman of the Board in
February 2004, and was only recently elected our Chief Executive Officer and President in September and November of 2004, respectively. In addition, three new directors were appointed in September 2004.



To successfully integrate into our company, each of these individuals must spend a
significant amount of time learning our business model, our management system and, in some cases, our industry. Our CEO and President must do this in addition to performing his regular duties. All of our new directors also maintain full-time
employment or other business interests outside of our company. If we fail to complete this integration in an efficient manner, our business and prospects will suffer.



Our common stock has a limited trading market, which could limit the liquidity of our common stock and our access to capital markets.



Our common stock is currently quoted on both the over-the-counter
electronic bulletin board, also referred to as the OTC Bulletin Board and the National Quotation Service Bureau, also known as the Pink Sheets. There is only limited trading activity in our securities. We do not know if a market for our common stock
will be re-established or that, if re-established, a market will be sustained. This could limit the liquidity of our common stock and reduce our stock price. The limited liquidity and reduced price of our common stock could have a material adverse
effect on our ability to raise capital through alternative financing sources on terms acceptable to us or at all. The limited trading market may also result in other negative implications, including the potential loss of confidence by suppliers,
customers and employees, the loss of institutional investor interest and fewer business development opportunities.



Our common stock is subject to additional regulation as a penny stock, which may reduce the liquidity of our common stock.



The SEC has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any
security that is priced under five dollars. These regulations may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in our common stock and investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares. We cannot assure you that
you will be able to resell our common stock and may lose your investment.



In
addition, since the trading price of our common stock is less than $5.00 per share, trading in our common stock is also subject to the requirements of Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act. Under Rule 15g-9, brokers who recommend our common stock to
persons who are not established customers and accredited investors, as defined in the Exchange Act, must satisfy special sales practice requirements, including requirements that they:



| |  | make an individualized written suitability determination for the purchaser; and
|- |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | receive the purchasers written consent prior to the transaction.
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



The Securities Enforcement Remedies and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 also requires additional disclosures in connection with any trades involving a penny stock,
including the delivery, prior to any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with that market. Such requirements may severely limit the market liquidity of our common stock and the
ability of purchasers of our equity securities to sell their securities in the secondary market. For all of these reasons, an investment in our equity securities may not be attractive to our potential investors.

Revenues in any quarter may vary to the extent recognition of revenue is deferred when contracts are signed. As a
result, revenues in any quarter may be difficult to predict and unreliable indicators of future performance trends.



We frequently enter into contracts where we recognize only a portion of the total revenue under the contract in the quarter in which we enter into the contract. For
example, we may recognize revenue on a ratable basis over the life of the contract or enter into contracts where the recognition of revenue is conditioned upon delivery of future product or service elements. This is the case with our contracts with
CVS and Household Financial. The portion of revenues recognized on a deferred basis may vary significantly in any given quarter, and revenues in any given quarter are a function both of contracts signed in such quarter and contracts signed in prior
quarters. We anticipate that product revenues in future quarters will generally be more dependent on revenues from new customer contracts entered into in those quarters rather than from amortization or recognition of product revenues deferred in
prior quarters.



We sometimes experience long implementation cycles, which
may increase our operating costs and delay recognition of revenues.



Our
products are sophisticated systems that are generally deployed with many users. Implementation of these systems by enterprises is complex, time consuming and expensive. Long implementation cycles may delay the recognition of revenue as some of our
customers engage us to perform system implementation services, which can defer revenue recognition for the related product revenue. In addition, when we experience long implementation cycles, we may incur costs at a higher level than anticipated,
which may reduce the anticipated profitability of a given implementation .



Our costs could substantially increase if we receive a significant number of warranty claims.



We generally warrant each of our products against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of twelve months from the date of shipment. Further, we have entered into a long-term service agreement with a
certain customer pursuant to which we have agreed to provide all necessary maintenance and services for a fixed fee. If we experience an increase in product returns or warranty claims, we could incur unanticipated additional expenditures for parts
and service. In addition, our reputation and goodwill could be damaged, perhaps irreparably. While we have established reserves for liability associated with product warranties, unforeseen warranty exposure in excess of those reserves could
adversely affect our operating results.



Item 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK



Market Risk.During the normal course of business we are routinely subjected to a variety of market risks, examples of which include, but are not limited to, interest rate movements and collectability of
accounts receivable. We currently assess these risks and have established policies and practices to protect against the adverse effects of these and other potential exposures. Although we do not anticipate any material losses in these risk areas, no
assurances can be made that material losses will not be incurred in these areas in the future.



Interest Rate Risk.We may be exposed to interest rate risk on certain of its cash equivalents. The value of certain of our investments may be adversely affected in a rising interest rate investment
environment. Although we do not anticipate any material losses from such a movement in interest rates, no assurances can be made that material losses will not be incurred in the future.



Item 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



Introduction.



Disclosure Controls and Procedures
are defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as the controls and procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act
is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time period specified by the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure Controls and Procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuers management, including its principle executive and principal financial officers to all timely
decisions regarding disclosure.



We have endeavored to design our Disclosure
Controls and Procedures and Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting to provide reasonable assurances that their objectives will be met. However, management and our Audit Committee do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls
over financial reporting will prevent all errors or all instances of fraud or a material weakness. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control systems
objectives will be met. All control systems are subject to inherent limitations, such as resource constraints, the possibility of human error, lack of knowledge or awareness, and the possibility of intentional circumvention of these controls.
Furthermore, the design of any control system is based, in part, upon assumptions about the likelihood of future events, which assumptions may ultimately prove to be incorrect. As a result, we cannot assure you our control system will detect every
error or instance of fraudulent conduct, including an error or instance of fraudulent conduct that could have a material adverse impact on our operations or results.



Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.



As of March 31, 2005, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as
of March 31, 2005, the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective during the quarter ended March 31, 2005.

##### Table of Contents

This determination was made because of our Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officers belief that
our companys resources were insufficient to address its financial reporting requirements in a timely fashion during the quarter ended March 31, 2005. Recent filings of our Annual Reports on Form 10-K have been filed in a timely manner.
However, we failed to timely file our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2004 and an amendment to our Current Report on Form 8-K originally filed September 29, 2004 to disclose
certain financial data in connection with our acquisition of Vertical Networks. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes that, during the quarter ended March 31, 2005, our company lacked the
resources to address the financial reporting related to significant and complex business transactions.



Assessment of Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting.



The Companys former independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, have advised management and the Audit Committee that, in connection with their review of the financial statements of the Company for
the three month period ended December 31, 2004, KPMG noted certain matters involving internal control and its operation that it considered to be material weaknesses that constituted reportable conditions under standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Reportable conditions are matters coming to an independent registered public accounting firms attention that, in their judgment, relate to significant deficiencies in the design or operation
of internal control and could adversely affect the organizations ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial data consistent with the assertions of management in the financial statements. Further, a material weakness is a
reportable condition in which the design or operation of one or more internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that errors or fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements being
audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. KPMG LLP advised management and the Audit Committee that it considered the following to constitute a material
weakness in internal control and operations: the Company did not have adequate staffing its finance group with the appropriate level of experience to effectively control the increased level of transaction activity, address the complex accounting
matters and manage the increased financial reporting complexities resulting from the acquisition of Vertical Networks and the associated integration activities.



We are evaluating our resources for addressing our financial reporting and making appropriate changes to provide sufficient resources and time to prepare and file
periodic reports within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and regulations and provide for reviews by management, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are, in
connection with the evaluation, reviewing our personnel, resources and disclosure controls and procedures. The evaluation is intended to lead to changes that will ensure that our disclosure controls are effective at a reasonable assurance level.
Specifically, the evaluation is aimed at ensuring that our disclosure controls are effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing in a timely manner the information we are required to disclose in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934.



Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.



There have been no changes in our internal control over financial
reporting that occurred during the our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, as noted above, we intend to take certain actions
designed to enhance our internal control over financial reporting and its disclosure controls and procedures.
