Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The financial information included herein for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 is unaudited and has been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures typically included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to
such rules and regulations. However, the financial information reflects all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of
operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The financial information as of December 31, 2007 is derived from Metro One Telecommunications, Inc.s (Metro One) 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2007. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in Metro Ones 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes, actual results
may differ from such estimates and assumptions, and the results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Metro One and its wholly-owned subsidiary. There are no intercompany balances and no intercompany
transactions have occurred.

We have experienced net losses in each of the quarterly and annual periods beginning with the second quarter of 2003. It is likely that we will continue to experience operating losses. We discontinued our directory assistance business
in the first quarter of 2008. See Note 3 Discontinued Operations. The current financial crisis and worldwide economic slowdown have created uncertainty in our markets and made growth of incipient businesses, such as ours, much
more difficult and uncertain. We are currently considering numerous strategic alternatives with respect to our remaining businesses. Such alternatives include, but are not limited to, the sale of our Contact Services and Data Services business lines
as going concerns, the operation of our Data Services business as an independent business, the closure of either or both of our operating businesses, the sale of unwanted or residual assets or continued operation as an investment vehicle seeking to
purchase operating businesses or make opportunistic passive investments. There can be no assurance that the result of our continuing evaluation of our strategic alternatives will be the continuation of all or any portion of our operating businesses.

In May 2008, we sold a majority of our patent and trademark portfolio for $8.0 million in cash, which resulted in a gain of approximately
$4.3 million in the second quarter of 2008 as a component of discontinued operations. We believe that this cash will be sufficient to provide the liquidity necessary to fund our operations during the remainder of 2008.

If we are unable to execute our business plans or, alternatively, if we are successful in completing certain strategic alternatives being considered, we may decide to
discontinue all operations for the foreseeable future.

Note 3. Discontinued Operations

In March 2008, we announced that, as part of a strategic business review and in furtherance of our ongoing effort to cut costs and align expenses with reduced
revenues, we decided to exit our facilities-based wholesale directory assistance business. Our strategic review determined that the current economic environment did not provide the potential to deliver an acceptable long-term return on investment
and that our remaining resources would be better spent pursuing our Data Services and

Contact Services businesses and monetizing our patent portfolio. The results of operations related to our directory assistance services have been
reclassified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Our directory assistance call centers in Long Island and Portland were closed in March
2008 prior to our decision to leave the directory assistance business, and our call centers in Minneapolis, Orlando, Charlotte and Honolulu were closed in May 2008 as part of that decision. We also reduced corporate staff at our Beaverton
headquarters. A total of approximately 700 employees were terminated in connection with the call center closures and related activities.

We
anticipate the total restructuring costs to be incurred in connection with the closure of all of the call centers and the reduction in corporate staff will total approximately $3.6 million as follows (in thousands):

|Fixed asset impairment and loss on disposal    |  |   | 1,030

|                                               |  |   |      

We recognized $(17,000) and $3.4 million, respectively, of the total estimated restructuring costs in the
three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 as a component of discontinued operations and expect to recognize approximately $0.1 million of the costs in the fourth quarter of 2008. The remaining costs, estimated to be
approximately $0.1 million, will be recognized over the remaining terms of our operating leases, which run through September 2009.

Under current
assumptions, the restructuring costs are anticipated to result in cash expenditures of approximately $1.7 million, approximately $1.3 million of which had been incurred through September 30, 2008. The fixed asset impairments and loss
on disposal did not result in cash expenditures and a majority of the contract termination costs were written off against accounts receivable balances.

Our historical reporting did not allocate all expenses between our operating segments. The prior period information was determined by allocating expenses based on revenues in each segment. Certain financial information related to
discontinued operations was as follows (in thousands):

In May 2008, we completed the sale of a portfolio of surplus intellectual property, including patents and
trademarks, to a subsidiary of kgb, formerly INFONXX, Inc., a provider of live operator directory assistance services headquartered in New York City. The consideration received was $8.0 million in cash. The book value of the patents and trademarks
sold was $3.7 million and, accordingly, we recognized a gain on the sale of $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2008.

The portfolio consisted
of 49 issued and 78 pending patents in North America and numerous trademarks and domain names, all of which were developed originally for use in our discontinued live operator

directory assistance business. We retained ownership of a data management and analytic patent and pending application that are pivotal to our continuing
business model that is focused on providing data, data processing and analysis services, and contact services to business customers. As part of the transaction, and for no additional consideration, we licensed our retained data patent and rights
under our pending patent application to kgb for use only by or for kgb.

The pre-tax (income) loss from discontinued operations in the three and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 2008 included the following restructuring charges (in thousands):

In May 2008, one of our Directory Assistance customers indicated that they would not pay $750,000 of their
outstanding accounts receivable due to the early termination of our contract with them. Accordingly, we recorded a contract termination charge of $750,000 as a component of discontinued operations in the quarter ended March 31, 2008 and a
corresponding reduction of our accounts receivable from discontinued operations. In June 2008, four additional customers indicated they would not pay a total of $25,000 of their outstanding receivables. In addition, one customer received
remuneration beyond amounts due from them recorded in our accounts receivable. At this time, we do not expect any future charges to be recognized or paid in connection with the termination of any additional remaining contracts with our directory
assistance customers.

The above estimated costs and charges are preliminary and may vary based on various factors, including the resale market for
furniture, fixtures and equipment and changes in managements assumptions and projections.

Furniture, fixtures and equipment of discontinued
operations held for sale are recorded at estimated fair market value, less selling costs, and are no longer being depreciated.

summarizes the charges, expenditures and ending balances for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008 related to our restructuring accrual (in thousands):

Our restructuring liability is included as a component of liabilities of discontinued operations at
September 30, 2008. We currently anticipate that cash payments associated with lease termination and other lease obligations will be paid through September 2009. In addition to the accrued leases payable, future operating lease payments not
required to be reflected on our balance sheet totaled approximately $27,000, net of estimated sublease income, at September 30, 2008.

Note 5. Segment and Enterprise-Wide Disclosures

We have two reportable business segments defined by product line in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131,
Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information: (1) Contact Services; and (2) Data Services. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information
is available and regularly reviewed by senior management. Our operating segments are evidence of the internal structure of our organization. Both segments are supported in the same service facilities and share information technology systems and
support personnel. Contact Services derives revenue from contracts it has entered into to support call center business to business marketing programs. We have terminated all employees focused exclusively on the portion of Contact Services
that was fee based. Accordingly, the remaining Contact Services business is commission based and contingent on sales being made. Data Services derives revenue from delivering electronic data to our customers. The operating facilities,
sales management and chief decision-makers for both operations are managed by the same executive team. Our chief operating decision maker is our Chief Executive Officer. Segment disclosures are presented for revenues and direct operating costs
as these are the primary performance measures for which the segments are evaluated. We do not allocate assets by segment.

Note 7. Fair Value Measurements

Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, for our financial assets and liabilities.
The adoption of this portion of SFAS No. 157 did not have any effect on our financial position or results of operations and we do not expect the adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 157 related to non-financial assets and liabilities to
have an effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of our financial assets and
liabilities and are summarized into three broad categories:



| |  |  | Level 1  quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2  other significant observable inputs, including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3  significant unobservable inputs, including our own assumptions in determining fair value.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, we are party to various legal actions and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business.

In June 2007, we filed a petition in the United States Tax Court opposing a statutory notice of deficiency issued by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue against us for our tax year 2002 asserting a deficiency of approximately $630,000.
With interest, the amount in controversy, as of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, was $901,000 and $849,000, respectively, and was included as a component of accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. Our position is
that we may carryover our alternative minimum tax net operating loss arising in our 2004 tax year to fully reduce our alternative minimum taxable income in our 2002 tax year. Briefing has been completed and the parties are awaiting a ruling by the
judge.

We are also involved in an administrative proceeding for 2001, 2002 and 2003 with the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance (the
Department). With penalties and interest, the Department asserts that, as of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we owed $241,000 and $224,000, respectively, in various state and local taxes and assessments. These amounts
were included as a component of accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. Our position is that we should be classified as having provided telecommunications services and that no amounts are now owed for these taxes and assessments.
Should the Department not agree, it will issue a final decision and we will have to determine whether to seek review of this decision in New York state court.

From time to time, in the normal course of our business, we issue standby letters of credit and bank guarantees. At September 30, 2008, we had one letter of credit outstanding in the amount of $1.7 million related to our
workers compensation program. The letter of credit is secured by a certificate of deposit for the same amount that is recorded as restricted cash. This commitment has an expiration date of April 1, 2009.

Note 9. Related Party Transactions

In January 2008, we entered into a contractual relationship in our contact services business, under which we function as a sales agent to a master agent that has the primary contractual relationship with the entities
for whom we make outbound sales queries. Our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. William Hergenhan, is a director and a significant shareholder in that master agent. Net revenue pursuant to this agreement is commission based and totaled $387,000
and $863,000, respectively, in the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008. At September 30, 2008, this company owed us $548,000, which was included as a component of accounts receivable on our condensed consolidated balance
sheet. All negotiations and transactions with the master agent have been at arms length, and the contract was ratified by our Board of Directors.

Note 10. Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current
period presentation for discontinued operations.

Note 11. New Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS No. 162

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which identifies the sources of accounting principles and
the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. SFAS No. 162 is
effective 60 days following the Securities and Exchange Commissions approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 4311, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles. We believe that our accounting principles and practices are consistent with the guidance in SFAS No. 162, and, accordingly, we do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 162 to have a material effect on our
financial position or results of operations.

SFAS No. 161

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which requires certain disclosures related to derivative instruments. SFAS No. 161 is
effective prospectively for interim periods and fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. We do not have any derivative instruments that fall under the guidance of SFAS No. 161 and, accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 161 will
not have any effect on our financial position or results of operations.

SFAS No. 160

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160 Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of ARB
No. 51.SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for a parent companys non-controlling, or minority interests in its subsidiaries. SFAS No. 160 also provides accounting and reporting
standards for changes in a parents ownership interest of a non-controlling interest as well as deconsolidation procedures. SFAS No. 160 aligns the reporting of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries with the requirements in
International Accounting Standards 27 and is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not have any non-controlling or minority interests and, accordingly, we
do not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

SFAS
No. 141R

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations - Revised. SFAS No. 141R changes
the accounting for business combinations including the measurement of acquirer shares issued in consideration for a business combination, the recognition of contingent consideration, the accounting for pre-acquisition gain and loss contingencies,
the recognition of capitalized in-process research and development, the accounting for acquisition-related restructuring cost accruals, the treatment of acquisition related transaction costs and the recognition of changes in the acquirers
income tax valuation allowance. SFAS No. 141R is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008,

with early adoption prohibited. We do not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results
of operations as we have no plans for acquisitions at this time.

SFAS No. 159

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS No. 159 provides
companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different
measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities and to provide additional information that will help investors and other financial statement users to more easily understand the effect of a companys choice to use fair value
on its earnings. Finally, SFAS No. 159 requires entities to display the fair value of those assets and liabilities for which a company has chosen to use fair value on the face of the balance sheet. The adoption of SFAS No. 159
effective January 1, 2008 did not have any effect on our financial position or results of operations as we do not have any assets or liabilities that fall under the guidance of SFAS No. 159.

Note 12. Unrecognized Tax Benefits

As of September 30,
2008 and December 31, 2007, unrecognized tax benefits totaled $751,000.

Note 13. Revenue Recognition

Under contracts with certain Contact Services customers, we record revenue for the number of telephone service contracts sold at the agreed upon price per service,
calculated on a monthly basis. Pricing for services sold is subject to change on a regular basis. We have established reserves for estimated sales returns or cancelation based on historical experience and the terms of our contracts. However,
our experience in this business is limited and adjustments to our reserves could have a material effect on our financial position and results of operations. Under contracts with our one customer within Contact Services, which has now been completed,
we recorded revenue for the number of hours worked at an agreed upon price per hour. Revenue from our Data Services customers is recognized either when the data is delivered or when the customer uses the data, based upon contract provisions. Revenue
for Data Services is calculated based on a price per data record as stipulated in the contracts.

Note 14. Payment of Liquidated Damages under
Registration Rights Agreement

On June 5, 2007, as part of a financing with Columbia Ventures Corporation and Everest Special Situations Fund
L.P. (collectively, the Investors), we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement requiring us to file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 that allows for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the shelf registration statement). The Registration Rights Agreement provides that the shelf registration statement is to cover the resale of shares of common stock issuable on conversion of
our convertible preferred stock (including shares of convertible preferred stock issuable on exercise of the warrants) issued in the financing. If the shelf registration statement was not declared effective by a certain date, the Registration Rights
Agreement required us to pay liquidated damages to the Investors in an amount equal to 1.25% of the purchase price paid for the convertible preferred stock (currently, $125,000) for each 30-day period or pro rata for any part thereof until such
registration default is cured, provided that the liquidated damages cannot, in the aggregate, exceed 20% of the convertible preferred purchase price. The Investors, through written amendments to the Registration Rights Agreement, agreed to extend
the deadline for the effectiveness of the shelf registration statement through and including June 15, 2008. From, and after, June 16, 2008, until the shelf registration statement was declared to be effective, we were required to pay the
Investors liquidated damages in the amount and at the rate specified above. The Registration Statement was declared effective on July 11, 2008. At June 30, 2008, we had accrued $62,500 as a component of accrued liabilities for the
liquidated damages, which was recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses. In addition, we recorded an additional $46,000 of liquidated damages in the third quarter of 2008, also as a component of selling, general and
administrative expenses. These amounts remained accrued on our balance sheet at September 30, 2008.

Note 15. NASDAQ Deficiency Letters and Delisting

On April 16, 2008, we were notified by The Nasdaq Stock Market that we were not in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4) (the Minimum Bid Price
Rule) because shares of our common stock had closed at a per share bid price of less than $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days. In accordance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(8)(D), we had been provided 180 calendar days, or until
October 13, 2008, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule.

In addition, on May 22, 2008, we were notified by The Nasdaq Stock
Market that we no longer were in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(3) and were subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market. Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(3) requires that we maintain stockholders equity of at least $2.5
million, or a market value of our listed securities of at least $35.0 million, or have net income from continuing operations of at least $500,000 during the last fiscal year or two of the last three fiscal years.

On July 25, 2008, we received a Nasdaq staff determination letter rejecting the plan we had submitted to evidence our ability to achieve compliance with the
requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(3). We appealed the Nasdaq staffs determination to delist our securities from The Nasdaq Capital Market effective August 5, 2008,
and were scheduled for a hearing before a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel (the Panel) on September 18, 2008.

However, on
September 16, 2008, we notified the Panel that we were withdrawing our appeal of the July 25, 2008 Nasdaq staff determination. Accordingly, our common stock was suspended from trading effective at the open of business on Friday,
September 19, 2008. The common stock was subsequently delisted on October 7, 2008, when the SEC completed its formal notification of removal from listing.

Our common stock began trading on the OTC Bulletin BoardTMon Friday, September 19, 2008 under the same trading symbol, INFO.OB.

OVERVIEW

On
March 21, 2008, we announced that, as part of a strategic business review and in furtherance of our ongoing effort to cut costs and align expenses with reduced revenues, we had decided to exit the wholesale directory assistance business. As of
September 30, 2008, all of our call centers had been closed. A total of approximately 700 employees were terminated in connection with the call center closures and related activities. We sold a majority of our patent and trademark portfolio to
an unrelated third party in May 2008 for $8.0 million in cash. We believe that the cash received from this transaction will be sufficient to allow us to support our operations through at least December 31, 2008.

During the first nine months of 2008, we focused on growing our Data Services and Contact Services segments. With respect to Contact Services, during that period, we
entered into and began servicing four contracts to provide Contact Services. Since then, we have completed one contract under which we were paid on an hourly basis, leaving us with three contracts that provide for contingent payments based on
sales contracts.

The current financial crisis and worldwide economic slowdown have created uncertainty in our markets and made growth of incipient
businesses, such as ours, much more difficult and uncertain. We are currently considering numerous strategic alternatives with respect to our remaining businesses. Such alternatives include, but are not limited to, the sale of our Contact Services
and Data Services business lines as going concerns, the operation of our Data Services business as an independent business, the closure of either or both of our operating businesses, the sale of unwanted or residual assets or continued operation as
an investment vehicle seeking to purchase operating businesses or make opportunistic passive investments. There can be no assurance that the result of our continuing evaluation of our strategic alternatives will be the continuation of all or any
portion of our operating businesses.

As part of our review of our strategic alternatives, we are actively considering whether we qualify to deregister our
common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, in which case, if we did qualify and deregister our stock, we would no longer file annual, quarterly and current reports, or proxy statements, with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. In that event, our common stock would be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board and be quoted only on the Pink Sheets, if at all. If there are no public quotes for our stock and no broker-dealer making a market in
our stock, it will be very difficult for shareholders to determine a value of, or sell, their common stock.

GOING CONCERN

We have experienced net losses in each of the quarterly and annual periods beginning with the second quarter of 2003. It is likely that we will
continue to experience operating losses. We discontinued our directory assistance business in the first quarter of 2008. See Note 3 Discontinued Operations of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in
Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. In May 2008, we sold a majority of our patent and trademark portfolio for $8.0 million in cash, which resulted in a gain in the second quarter of 2008 of approximately $4.3 million recorded as a component of
discontinued operations. We believe that this cash will be sufficient to provide the liquidity necessary to fund our operations during the remainder of 2008.

Revenue

Revenue increased $452,000, or 140.3%, to $774,000 in the third quarter of 2008 compared to $322,000 in the third quarter of 2007 and increased $936,000, or 106.0%, to $1.8 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008
compared to $883,000 in the comparable period of 2007. The increases were due to the addition of our Contact Services segment and our new Contact Services clients in the first nine months of 2008.

Direct Operating Expenses

Direct operating expenses consist
of the costs of salaries, wages, benefits, taxes and software application licenses for Contact Services and listings data and content acquisition costs in Data Services. Direct operating expenses increased $674,000 to $760,000 in the third quarter
of 2008 from $86,000 in the third quarter of 2007 and $1.3 million to $1.5 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008 compared to $231,000 in the comparable period of 2007. These increases were primarily due to the addition of
our Contact Services segment. As a percentage of revenues, direct operating expenses increased to 98.2% and 82.8%, respectively, in the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 compared to 26.7% and 26.2%, respectively, in the
comparable periods of 2007, due primarily to the addition of Contact Services, which has higher direct operating expenses as a percentage of revenues than does Data Services.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses
(SG&A) consist of labor, travel, outside services and overhead incurred in our sales, marketing, management and administrative support functions. SG&A decreased $0.1 million, or 6.3%, to $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2008
compared to $2.1 in the third quarter of 2007 and decreased $0.7 million, or 11.6%, to $5.5 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008 compared to $6.2 million in the comparable period of 2007. The decreases were due to
reductions in administrative staff and payroll that were partially offset by increases in professional fees and other contract services charges.

Gain (Loss) Associated with Valuation of Warrants

Our warrants related to our Series A convertible preferred stock are marked to
market on a quarterly basis utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model.

Discontinued Operations

In March 2008, we announced that, as part of a strategic business review and in furtherance of our ongoing effort to cut costs and align expenses with reduced
revenues, we decided to exit our facilities-based wholesale directory assistance business. The results of operations related to our directory assistance services have been reclassified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
Accordingly, all results of operations information discussed in managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations above excludes the results of the directory assistance business.

See Note 3 Discontinued Operations of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for additional
information.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We believe that cash and cash equivalents of $6.8 million at September 30, 2008, will be sufficient to fund our operations for the remainder of 2008. The primary uses of our capital in the near future are
expected to be for basic working capital needs and for the costs of pursuing various strategic alternatives.

During the first three quarters of 2008, cash
(including restricted cash) and cash equivalents decreased $2.5 million primarily as a result of $10.4 million used in operations, offset by $8.0 million received from the sale of a majority of our patent portfolio.

Our restricted cash relates to a certificate of deposit to guarantee a letter of credit outstanding related to our workers compensation program. This
commitment expires on April 1, 2009. During the first quarter of 2008, the amount of the outstanding letter of credit and related restricted cash balance decreased $1.3 million to $1.7 million at September 30, 2008 as a result of a
reduction in the potential workers compensation liability as determined by our insurance carrier.

Liabilities of discontinued operations at
September 30, 2008 consisted of the following (in thousands):



|                                              |  |   |

|Lease termination and other lease obligations |  | $ | 429
|Contract termination charges                  |  |   | 20 
|Other                                         |  |   | 221
|                                              |  |   |    
|                                              |  | $ | 670
|                                              |  |   |    

We currently anticipate that cash payments associated with lease termination and other lease obligations will be
paid through September 2009. In addition to the accrued leases payable, future operating lease payments not required to be reflected on our balance sheet totaled approximately $27,000, net of estimated sublease income, at September 30, 2008.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Other than
as described in Note 13 Revenue Recognition of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, our critical accounting policies and estimates as reported in our Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2007 are unchanged.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses,
results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. Our operating lease payments are not considered off-balance sheet arrangements.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
