BUSINESS COMPANY OVERVIEW We develop and sell software that provides real-time collaboration and training using Web-based tools that we believe increase worker productivity and save money. Our four-product iLinc Suite, led by LearnLinc (which also includes MeetingLinc, ConferenceLinc, and SupportLinc), is an award winning virtual classroom, Web conferencing and collaboration suite of software. With our Web collaboration, conferencing and virtual classroom products, we provide simple, reliable and cost-effective tools for remote presentations, meetings and online events. Our software is based on a proprietary architecture and code that finds its origins as far back as 1994, in what we believe to be the beginnings of the Web collaboration industry. LearnLinc has been translated into six languages, and is currently available in version 7.4. Our customers may choose from several different pricing options for the iLinc suite, and may receive our products on a stand-alone basis or integrated with one or a number of our other award-winning products, depending upon their needs. Customers wishing to collaborate and present, may choose between MeetingLinc, LearnLinc, ConferenceLinc and SupportLinc to deliver live events over the Internet in a one-to-one, one-to-many, or many-to-many communication format. Uses for our four-product suite of Web collaboration software include online business meetings, sales presentations, employee training sessions, product demonstrations and technical support assistance. We sell our software solutions to large and medium-sized corporations inside and outside of the Fortune 1000, targeting certain vertical markets. We market our products using a direct sales force and a distribution channel consisting of referral agents, international and national value-added resellers ("VAR"). We allow customers to choose between purchasing a perpetual license or subscribing to a periodic license of our products, providing for flexibility in pricing and payment methods. Our iLinc revenues are a mixture of high margin perpetual licenses of software and monthly recurring revenues from annual maintenance and support agreements, ASP subscription agreements and other products and services. ABOUT THE ILINC WEB COLLABORATION SUITE The iLinc Suite(TM) is a four product suite of software that addresses the four most common business collaboration needs. LearnLinc(TM) is an Internet-based software that is designed for training and education of remote students. With LearnLinc, instructors and students can collaborate and learn remotely providing an enhanced learning environment that replicates and surpasses traditional instructor-led classes. Instructors can create courses and classes, add varied agenda items, enroll students, deliver live instruction, and deliver content that includes audio, video, and interactive multimedia. In combination with TestLinc(TM), LearnLinc permits users to administer comprehensive tests, organize multiple simultaneous breakout sessions and record, edit, play back and archive entire sessions for future use. MeetingLinc(TM) is an online collaboration software designed to facilitate the sharing of documents, PowerPoint(TM) presentations, graphics and applications between meeting participants without leaving their desks. MeetingLinc allows business professionals, government employees, and educators to communicate more effectively and economically through interactive online meetings using voice-over-IP technology to avoid the expense of travel and long distance charges. MeetingLinc allows remote participants to: give presentations, demonstrate their products and services, annotate on virtual whiteboards, edit documents simultaneously, and take meeting participants on a Web tour. Like all of the Web collaboration products in the suite, MeetingLinc includes integrated voice and video conferencing services. ConferenceLinc(TM) is a presentation software designed to deliver the message in a one-to-many format providing professional management of Web conferencing events. ConferenceLinc manages events such as earning announcements, press briefings, new product announcements, corporate internal mass communications and external marketing events. ConferenceLinc is built on the MeetingLinc software platform and code to combine the best interactive features with an easy to use interface providing meaningful and measurable results to presenters and participants alike. Its design includes features that take the hassle out of planning, and supporting a hosted Web seminar. ConferenceLinc includes automatic email invitations, "one-click join" capabilities, online confirmations, update notifications, and customized attendee registration. With ConferenceLinc, presenters may not only present 4 content, but may also gain audience feedback using real-time polling, live chat, question and answer sessions, and post-event assessments. The entire presentation is easily recordable for viewing offline and review after the show with the recorder capturing the content and the audio, video, and participant feedback. SupportLinc(TM) is an online technical support and customer sales support software designed to give customer service organizations the ability to provide remote hands-on support for products, systems, or software applications. SupportLinc manages the support call volume and enhances the effectiveness of traditional telephone-based customer support systems. SupportLinc's custom interface is designed to be simple to use so as to improve the interaction and level of support for both customers and their technical support agents. Our Web collaboration suite of products may be sold as a customer-hosted installation (instead of a concurrent user license), allowing the customer to purchase the entire suite for organization-wide use on an unlimited connection basis. The enterprise edition provides for unlimited use for an unlimited number of users, and includes our entire four-product suite of Web collaboration products. Corporations, educational institutions and governments may purchase or lease any one product or a combination of the products to suit their individual needs. Because our Web collaboration products are available for license as an iLinc hosted ASP solution or as a customer hosted behind-the-firewall solution, customers can choose the model that works best for their budget and IT capabilities. If a customer purchases a perpetual license for the product, it also may purchase a customer support and maintenance agreement, varying in term from one to five years and typically costing 15% to 18% of the license fee for the product. AUDIO CONFERENCING Through its acquisition of Glyphics Communications in June 2004, the Company now also delivers comprehensive audio conferencing solutions that help businesses provide virtual meetings, corporate events, distance learning programs, and daily conference calls. Our audio conferencing offering includes a wide array of services and products that include the following: o AUDIO ON-DEMAND (NO RESERVATIONS NEEDED): With pre-established calling accounts for each user, you can create or participate in conference calls with no advance notice, 24/7; o RESERVED AUTOMATED: The solution for recurring calls, each participant has a permanent number and passcode; o OPERATOR ASSISTED: For important calls, this service includes an iLinc conference operator to host, monitor, and coordinate the call; and, o ONLINE SEMINARS: Support online Web presentation with high-quality audio from iLinc. Customers may purchase our audio conferencing products and services without an annual contract commitment on a monthly recurring usage basis, and often subscribe for a fixed per minute rate. OTHER PRODUCTS AND SERVICES In addition to the iLinc Suite of products and services, we offer to our customers an array of e-Learning and training products and services. o TECHNOLOGY: We offer training software products that like iLinc, promote online collaboration with products that integrate with our LearnLinc software. These include TestLinc - an assessment and quizzing tool that allows for formal testing and evaluation of students, and i-Canvas(TM) - a training content development software that allows non-technical training professionals to create Web-based training courses without programming. i-Canvas is sold on an individual user perpetual license basis. o SERVICES: We also offer custom content development services through a subcontractor relationship with Interactive Alchemy, an entity which is primarily comprised of former employees of 5 iLinc and which resides in iLinc's corporate office in Phoenix. Custom content services are bid on a project-by-project basis. o CONTENT: We also offer a library of online courses focused upon the training of executives on essential business topics. Our off-the-shelf online library of content includes an online mini-MBA program co-developed with the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College. Customers subscribe for a period of time per course, with the license providing for access over typically one year from the date the students first access of the course. MARKETING Marketing has outlined a plan that incorporates public relations, tradeshows, Web events, Web marketing initiatives and direct marketing (mail and email) efforts specifically at the target verticals - messaged in campaigns that speak to the needs of these industries. The goals of this strategy are to increase our market share in the selected markets, target marketing dollars more efficiently, sell away from the competition, align sales, marketing, and product development and creating customer value to prevent future displacement threats. DIRECT SALES The direct sales team is organized by geographic territory and is broken down into distinct groups - corporate sales sells to organizations with fewer than 3,000 employees; major accounts sales sells in a team environment with the regional accounts sales. These two sales teams focus on large target account sales and organizations with 3000 or more employees; and event services sales focuses on large "high-touch" professionally-managed events. All of these groups focus all of their outbound activity with our specific vertical markets: financial services, high technology, and professional service organizations. We believe that the target vertical markets have a commonality of meeting four criteria: we have an established customer base in the market; our product feature set is specifically appropriate to the needs of the market; analysts have identified a need within that market for increasing use of Web conferencing; and we believe that we have the potential to capture a portion of the share of such markets. INDIRECT SALES iLinc has formed relationships with several organizations that market and sell our products and services through their sales distribution channels. The relationships can be categorized into referral partners which strictly refer business for a small percentage of the contract sale and value added resellers (VAR) that actively sell the products and provide product support. As of March 31, 2004, we had 60 organizations selling our products, on a non-exclusive basis, with 32 of those partners providing indirect sales in North America, including the United States, Canada and Mexico, and have 28 partners providing indirect sales in 12 countries outside North America, including the United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, Israel, Germany, Australia, Costa Rica, Columbia and Japan. Referral partners execute referral agreements providing for the payment of a fee upon the closing of a sale, with a distribution agreement typically having a one-year renewable term. Our value added resellers execute agreements to resell our products to their customers through direct sales and in some cases through integration of our products into their products or service offerings. Our distribution agreements typically have terms of one to three years and are automatically renewed for an additional like term unless either party terminates the agreement for breach or other financial reasons. In most of these agreements, the distribution partner licenses the product from us and resells the product to its customers. Under those agreements, we record only the amount paid to us by the distributor as revenue, and recognize revenue when all revenue recognition criteria have been met. Our national and international VAR network focuses on sales of iLinc and i-Canvas on an integrated or stand-alone basis. These VARs are focused in markets such as the domestic education and government markets, as well as international markets, where we do not compete. CUSTOMERS Our corporate customer list includes those inside and outside of the Fortune 1000 with notable customers in financial services such as Aetna, Guardian Life Insurance, JP Morgan Chase, Travelers Insurance, and Wells Fargo; high tech with customers such as California Software, Qualcomm, Sabre, and Xerox, and professional services organizations such as EDS, Greenburg Traurig and McKinsey Consulting. We also have a significant number of higher educational 6 organizations including The State University of New York, Kent State University, Tulane and 23 other major universities that use our products. Our reach includes customers both within the United States, Canada, Mexico, and outside North America in 13 other countries. AWARDS We are proud of the recognition received by the Company from industry leading experts, software associations, and training organizations. Together with our predecessors, we have been honored with more than 55 awards from notable authorities such as The American Society for Training and Development ("ASTD"), Brandon Hall Magazine, and New Media Magazine. The list of awards includes four National Telly Awards; six Software Service Provider of the Year Awards and two Gold Medals from e-Learning authority Brandon Hall, and most notably two first-place awards by a vote of e-Learning professionals LearnLinc was the winner of first place in the Synchronous Software Shootout held at Online Learning's conference in the fall of 2002, being voted number one in the head-to-head competition, besting industry leaders WebEx and PlaceWare (purchased by Microsoft and now Microsoft Live Meeting); and i-Canvas was the winner of first place in the Software Simulation Shootout held at Online Learning's conference in 2001, being voted number one in the head-to-head competition, defeating products from industry leaders Click2Learn and Macromedia. TECHNOLOGY & INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY Our existing technology and intellectual property were originally developed by organizations that we have acquired including the assets of Learning-Edge, ThoughtWare, Quisic, Mentergy and Glyphics. For our ASP customers, we host our software and provide Internet connectivity from our dedicated servers in Los Angeles, California; Phoenix, Arizona; Springville, Utah; and Troy, New York. We run a network infrastructure on-premises both in our Phoenix and Troy offices and through leased data centers in Los Angeles and Springville. Our ASP data network is redundant in design and is secure from unauthorized access. Our Web collaboration software products are client/server applications that operate in a Windows environment. Our ASP product operates in a Linux environment using an Oracle database. RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT The Company invested a substantial portion of its working capital and resources in the continued development of its e-Learning software and technologies. We employ full-time engineers, programmers and developers, that are located in Troy, New York and Phoenix, Arizona, who are constantly focused on developing new features and enhancements to our existing software offering and expanding that offering with new products and services. The primary focus of our research and development efforts are on improving the functionality and performance of the iLinc suite as well as developing new features that meet changing market demands. In the 2003 fiscal year, we invested over $3.2 million in direct and indirect research and development activities, and have invested over $2.7 million for the 2004 fiscal year. We expect to continue to make significant investments in research and development for the next several years. CUSTOMER SERVICE We offer technical and customer support through a customer support team that has been together for over ten years. We offer differing levels of support depending upon the maintenance and support agreement executed by the customer that includes telephone support through a toll-free number from 8:30 a.m. until 8:30 p.m. Eastern Time and an email request system. We also offer access to self-help information that includes a database of frequently asked questions, quick reference and advanced end-user guides, online tutorials, and access to a real-time searchable knowledge database. Most of our requests for technical support are questions concerning general product functionality with some assistance with technical computer and firewall issues. Our response times vary depending upon the issue, but the vast majority of our customer support questions are addressed during the initial technical support call. Customer issues and support tickets are tracked within our CRM database for use by our technical support teams and customers searching the knowledge database. 7 COMPETITION We believe that our current Web conferencing software has specific and unique characteristics that match the needs of our target vertical markets. The Company intends to leverage these strengths as well as direct product development efforts to continue to enhance the software to meet the specific needs of these markets. We believe that by targeting an integrated development and marketing approach to these verticals, iLinc can demonstrate enough value as a tool that supplements the collaboration needs for our vertical markets to discourage displacement of the product - even if the capability was to be heavily discounted by a competitor. With our emphasis being our Web collaboration four-product suite, we face competition from various Web conferencing and collaboration software companies including WebEx, PlaceWare (purchased by Microsoft and now called Microsoft Live Meeting) and Centra, as well as providers of similar software such as IBM, and Oracle. The Web collaboration, virtual classroom and Web conferencing industry continue to change and evolve rapidly, and we expect continued consolidation within the industry. Many of our current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical and other resources and greater name recognition than we have. We have identified what we believe to be the principal competitive factors in our markets, including ease of use; breadth of features; quality and reliability of products; pricing; security; indirect channel sales and the effectiveness of a direct sales force; ability to develop and support software; and limitations presented by the use of the public Internet. Although we believe our products compete favorably, we may not be able to maintain a competitive position against current and potential competitors, especially those with greater financial resources. ACQUISITIONS As a part of our external growth strategy, we acquired the Web conferencing and several e-Learning companies providing the Company with expertise, tangible and intangible assets, technology, customer base, recurring revenues, and a global VAR network. October 2001 - Learning-Edge, Inc. ("Learning-Edge"), a Phoenix based provider of custom content development services. We acquired from Learning-Edge substantially all of its assets, which included an existing customer base, and an award winning Content Development Tool (i-Canvas). January 2002 - ThoughtWare Technologies, Inc. ("ThoughtWare"), a Memphis based provider of workforce management software. We acquired from ThoughtWare a small recurring revenue base, and HR workforce performance software that supports human capital development (Learning Tracker; People Search; Performance Coach and Career Planner). June 2002 - Quisic Corporation ("Quisic"), a Los Angeles based provider of custom content development services and e-Learning software. We acquired from Quisic certain assets primarily consisting of approximately 130 hours off-the-shelf library of online courses (including the 75 hour Tuck Business School at Dartmouth with content focused on accounting, finance, management, and marketing). November 2002 - Mentergy, Inc. ("Mentergy"), a provider of virtual classroom software. We acquired from Mentergy all assets associated with LearnLinc and TestLinc software, an existing customer base, a VAR network and a recurring maintenance revenue stream. June 2004 - Glyphics Communications, Inc., ("Glyphics") a provider of comprehensive audio conferencing products and services. On June 3, 2004, the Company executed an agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of and assume certain liabilities of Glyphics Communications, Inc., a Utah based private company. The acquisition had a stated effective date of June 1, 2004 and was fully consummated on June 14, 2004. The purchase price, which is expected to total $5.568 million, is based on a multiple of the Glyphics' 2003 estimated annual audited net audio conferencing business revenues. The purchase price will be paid with the assumption of approximately $2.114 million in specific liabilities, with the balance paid using the Company's common stock at the fixed price of $1.05 per share, or an estimated 3.524 million shares. The actual purchase price to be paid, and the resulting number of shares to be issued will be based upon the audited results that are expected to be obtained within sixty days of the closing date. Twenty percent of the consideration due is being held in escrow. Amounts held in escrow will be available to the Company to satisfy contingent claims and seller's indemnification obligations. Amounts held in 8 escrow also may be returned to the Company in the event that audio conferencing revenue performance measures required to be obtained by the Company during the 2004 calendar year are not met. EMPLOYEES As of March 31, 2004, we employed 48 full time persons, with the majority of those located at our corporate offices in Phoenix, Arizona. Our employee base consists of 7 employees performing general and administrative functions, 28 employees performing sales, marketing functions and customer support, 11 employees performing product research and development functions, and two employees performing IT functions. None of our employees is represented by collective bargaining agreements. As part of the Glyphics acquisition that occurred subsequent to the fiscal 2004 year end, the Company also, as of June 1, 2004, employs 34 full-time and 5 part-time employees at the Springville, UT facility. This employee base consists of one employee performing general and administrative functions, 6 employees performing sales functions, 28 employees performing audio conferencing support functions, and 4 employees performing IT functions. None of the employees are represented by collective bargaining agreements. DENTAL PRACTICE MANAGEMENT BUSINESS TREATED AS DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS The Company began its operations in March of 1998, with the simultaneous roll-up of 50 dental practices (an "Affiliated Practice") and an initial public offering. The Company's initial goals were to provide training and practice enhancement services nationwide to our Affiliated Practices using our proprietary Web-based learning management and financial reporting system. Beginning in April of 2000, the Company modified its affiliated service agreements and commensurate with that change the Company recorded certain charges against earnings during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001. The Company modified its business plan moving away from its dental practice management business during the third quarter of its fiscal year ended March 31, 2002. Effective January 1, 2004, the Company is no longer engaged in the dental practice management business and has reflected such business segment as a discontinued operation. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES We maintain corporate headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona and have occupied that 14,000 square foot Class A facility since the Company's inception in 1998. The Phoenix lease began in 1998 and has a term of ten years. The Phoenix offices can accommodate up to 85 employees and is fully equipped with up to date computer equipment and server facilities. The Phoenix lease requires a monthly rent and operating expenses of approximately $30,000. We also maintain a 2,500 square foot Class B facility in Troy, New York costing $4,800 per month with an emphasis in that location on research and development, and technical support. As a part of the ThoughtWare acquisition, we leased facilities in Memphis, Tennessee consisting of 2,700 square feet with a three-year term costing $4,400 per month. Those Memphis operations were consolidated into Phoenix operations and we are currently seeking to vacate those premises with the assumption of the lease by a sub-tenant. Our subsidiary, TW Acquisition Subsidiary, Inc., is obligated under an operating lease in Carlsbad, California consisting of 3,300 square feet with a three-year remaining term costing approximately $8,000 per month and the space has been sub-leased for the remaining term for approximately $7,200 per month. As a part of the discontinued dental practice management services segment we leased facilities in Houston, Texas on behalf of one of our Affiliated Practices consisting of 1,500 square feet with a ten-year term costing $2,800 per month. The Affiliated Practice vacated the premises without notice to us even though he had assumed the lease. We are currently seeking reimbursement for any and all amounts owed on this lease from the Affiliated Practice and are seeking to terminate the lease with the current landlord. 9 As a part of the Glyphics acquisition that occurred subsequent to the 2004 fiscal year end, the Company also, as of June 1, 2004, maintains offices in Springville, Utah, occupying Class A facility in two adjacent buildings. The first building houses its administrative and IT functions, with 10,000 square feet of space, with the second housing the operator complex and sales organizations with 6,122 square feet. The Springville lease began in 2003 and has a term of five years. The Springville offices can accommodate up to 100 employees and is fully equipped with up to date computer equipment. The facility also provides a fully redundant co-location and server facility for all audio conferencing activities. The Springville lease requires a monthly rental of approximately $10,700. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On June 14, 2002, the Company acquired the assets of Quisic Corporation. Subsequently, on November 4, 2002, two former employees of Quisic Corporation (their CEO and CIO), filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California styled George B. Weathersby, et. al. vs. Quisic Corporation, et. al. claiming damages against Quisic and the Board of Directors of Quisic arising from their employment termination by the Quisic Board. The Company was also added as a third party defendant with an allegation of successor liability, but only to the extent that Quisic Corporation is found liable, and then only to the extent the plaintiffs prove their successor liability claim against the Company. The Company only acquired certain assets of Quisic Corporation in an asset purchase transaction. Based upon the facts and circumstances known, the Company believes that the plaintiffs' claims are without merit, and furthermore, that the Company is not the successor of Quisic, and therefore the Company intends to vigorously defend this aspect of the lawsuit. While in the opinion of management, resolution of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows, the ultimate outcome of any litigation is uncertain. Were an unfavorable outcome to occur that awarded to the Plaintiffs against defendant Quisic large sums, and then the court determined that the Company is a successor to Quisic, then the impact is likely to be material to the Company. Subsequent to the defendants' answers being filed, the court ordered that an arbitration of the merits be held, but the date of that arbitration has not been set. On June 11, 2003, Kepner-Tregoe, Inc. filed suit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, styled, Kepner-Tregoe, Inc. vs. Internal & External Communications, Inc., et. al., against Quisic Corporation and the Board of Directors of Quisic seeking to collect an arbitration award against Internal & External Communications, Inc. (a subsidiary of Quisic). The Company was also added as a third party defendant with an allegation of successor liability, but only to the extent that Quisic Corporation is found liable, and then only to the extent the plaintiffs prove their successor liability claim against the Company. The Company only acquired certain assets of Quisic Corporation in an asset purchase transaction. As a part of the Quisic acquisition transaction consideration, the Company placed into escrow 500,000 shares of its common stock that was to secure a revenue performance requirement. That revenue performance target was not achieved and the Company demanded the return of the shares of common stock. The shareholders of Quisic do not dispute the right of the Company to obtain those shares. However, since the claims of the plaintiffs assert potential rights to those shares, they were instead tendered to the registry of the trial court pending resolution of the party's respective claims. Those 500,000 shares are not counted as shares outstanding nor as treasury shares as the performance contingency associated with those shares was not met. The Company believes that it is not the successor of Quisic, and therefore the Company intends to vigorously defend this aspect of the lawsuit. While in the opinion of management, resolution of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows, the ultimate outcome of any litigation is uncertain. Were an unfavorable outcome to occur that awarded to the Plaintiffs against defendant Quisic large sums, and then the court determined that the Company is a successor to Quisic, then the impact is likely to be material to the Company. Subsequent to the defendants' answers being filed, the Quisic defendants sought an order dismissing the plaintiff's claims and that order is still pending. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS At a Special Meeting of Stockholders that was held February 5, 2004, a proposal by proxy was submitted to a vote of stockholders that would approve the Certificate of Amendment to the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation that would (a) increase the number of shares of common stock that the Company will have authority to issue from Forty Million (40,000,000) to One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares and (b) change the name of the Company to "iLinc Communications, Inc." The proposal passed with 12,079,459 voting in favor of the proposal and 316,816 voting against the proposal.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS MARKET INFORMATION, HOLDERS AND DIVIDENDS The Company's Common Stock has been traded on the American Stock Exchange system under the symbol "ILC" since February 6, 2004. Prior to that, the Company's Common Stock was traded on the American Stock Exchange system under the symbol "EDT". The following table sets forth the range of the reported high and low sales prices of the Company's Common Stock for the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003: 2004 HIGH LOW ---- ------- ------- First Quarter................................... $0.41 $0.25 Second Quarter.................................. $0.81 $0.32 Third Quarter................................... $1.09 $0.61 Fourth Quarter.................................. $1.23 $0.80 2003 HIGH LOW ---- ------- ------- First Quarter .................................. $1.40 $0.76 Second Quarter.................................. $0.90 $0.33 Third Quarter................................... $0.57 $0.25 Fourth Quarter.................................. $0.57 $0.25 As of June 17, 2004, the closing price of our Common Stock was $0.99 per share and there were approximately 344 holders of record, as shown on the records of the transfer agent and registrar of Common Stock. The number of record holders does not bear any relationship to the number of beneficial owners of the Common Stock. The Company has not paid any cash dividends on its Common Stock in the past and does not plan to pay any cash dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future. The Company's Board of Directors intends, for the foreseeable future, to retain earnings to finance the continued operation and expansion of the Company's business. EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS The table below provides information relating to our equity compensation plans as of March 31, 2004: Number of Securities Remaining Available for Future Issuance Under Number of Securities to Weighted-Average Compensation Plans be Issued Upon Exercise Exercise Price of (Excluding Securities Of Outstanding Options, Outstanding Options, Reflected in First Plan Category Warrants and Rights Warrants and Rights Column) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Equity compensation plans approved by security holders 2,282,855 $1.43 736,937 Equity compensation plans approved by security holders 450,000 $8.50 -- Equity compensation plans not approved by security holders -- -- -- -------------------------- -------------------------- Total 2,732,855 736,937 ========================== ========================== 12 In December 2001, the Company, under the initiative of the Compensation Committee with the approval of the Board of Directors, issued its chief executive officer an incentive stock grant under the 1997 Stock Compensation Plan of 450,000 restricted shares of the Company's common stock as a means to retain and incentivize the chief executive officer. The shares 100% vest after 10 years from the date of grant. The shares were valued at $405,000 based on the closing price of the stock on the date of grant, which is recorded as compensation expense ratably over the vesting period. The vesting of the incentive shares accelerates based on the Company's share price as follows: PERFORMANCE CRITERIA SHARES VESTED ------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------- Share price trades for $4.50 per share for 20 consecutive days 150,000 shares Share price trades for $8.50 per share for 20 consecutive days 150,000 shares Share price trades for $12.50 per share for 20 consecutive days 150,000 shares SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES Set forth below are the securities we issued in private placement transactions which at the time were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Further included is the consideration, if any, we received for such securities and information relating to the section of the Securities Act, or rule of the Securities and Exchange Commission, under which exemption from registration was claimed. In September 2003, the Company completed its private placement of convertible preferred stock with detachable warrants. The Company sold 30 units at $50,000 each and raised a total of $1,500,000. Each unit consisted of 5,000 shares of convertible preferred stock, par value $0.001 and a warrant to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock. The convertible preferred stock is convertible into the Company's common stock at a price of $0.50 per share (subject to adjustment in certain events, with a floor of $0.30), and the warrants are immediately exercisable at a price of $1.50 per share with a three-year term. Accordingly, each share of preferred stock is convertible into 20 shares of common stock and retains a $10 liquidation preference. The Company will pay an 8% dividend to holders of the convertible preferred stock, and the dividend is cumulative. The convertible preferred stock is non-voting and non-participating. The shares of convertible preferred stock will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and were offered in a private placement providing exemption from registration. The placement agent was paid a commission of $150,000 or 10% of the gross proceeds plus $45,000, which represented a 3% non-accountable expense fee and received a warrant to purchase 3 units at the same terms of the original units. In addition, the Company paid $17,000 in legal and accounting fees bringing the net proceeds raised to $1,288,000. The Company used the net proceeds for general working capital, to expand its sales and marketing activities and to retire certain acquisition related liabilities. The cash proceeds of the private placement of convertible preferred stock was allocated pro-rata between the relative fair values of the preferred stock and warrants at issuance using the Black Scholes valuation model for valuing the warrants. After allocating the proceeds between the preferred stock and warrant, an effective conversion price was calculated for the convertible preferred stock to determine the beneficial conversion discount for each share. The aggregate value of the warrants and the beneficial conversion discount of $247,000 are considered a deemed dividend in the calculation of loss per share. Subsequent to year-end, a holder of 2,500 shares of preferred stock converted the shares to 50,000 shares of common stock and one holder of 20,000 shares converted to 400,000 shares of common stock. The underlying common stock that would be issued upon conversion of the preferred stock and upon exercise of the associated warrants have been registered with the SEC and may be sold pursuant to a resale prospectus dated May 24, 2004. In February of 2004, the Company completed a private placement offering raising capital of $500,000 that was used for general corporate purposes. Under the terms of the offering, the Company issued unsecured subordinated convertible notes that have a term of 24 months (subject to adjustment in certain events), and the notes are subordinated to any present or future senior indebtedness. The notes bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum for the first twelve months and then 10% for the second twelve months (subject to a retroactive adjustment to 15% if the underlying shares into which the notes are convertible have not been registered by July 31, 2004) and require quarterly payments of interest only, with the principal due at maturity on February 12, 2006. The holders of the notes may convert the outstanding principal into shares of the Company's common stock at the fixed price of $0.70 per share (subject to adjustments for dilution, as defined). At the issue date, the Company calculated a beneficial conversion feature of the notes to be $214,286, which is being amortized as interest expense over the 2-year life of the debt. The holders of the notes 13 retain certain demand and piggy-back registration rights. Subsequent to year end, holders with a principal balance totaling $500,000 converted their notes into 714,285 shares of the Company's common stock. The underlying common stock that would be issued upon conversion of the notes have been registered with the SEC and may be sold pursuant to a resale prospectus dated May 24, 2004. In April of 2004, the Company completed a private placement offering raising capital of $4.25 million that provided the Company $3.8 million of net proceeds. Under the terms of this offering, the Company issued $3,187,500 in unsecured senior notes and 1,634,550 shares of Common Stock of the Company. The senior notes were issued as a series of notes pursuant to a unit purchase and agency agreement. The senior notes are unsecured, non-convertible, and the purchasers received no warrants. The placement agent received a commission equal to 10% of the gross proceeds together with a warrant for the purchase of 163,455 shares of the Company's common stock at a price equal to 120% of the price paid by investors. The senior notes bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, and accrued interest is due and payable on a quarterly basis beginning July 15, 2004, with principal due at maturity on July 15, 2007. The senior notes are redeemable by the Company at 100% of the principal value at any time after July 15, 2005. The senior notes are unsecured obligations of the Company but are senior in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company. Individuals and entities participating in this offering have the right to demand registration of the common stock issued therefrom upon written notice to the Company and also have piggy-back registration rights should the company file a registration statement before the shares are otherwise registered. The issuance of these securities was made in reliance upon the exemptions from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D under the Securities Act. ITEM 6.

OVERVIEW Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, iLinc Communications, Inc., ("We", "Us", "Our" or the "Company") is a provider of Web and audio conferencing software and services for business collaboration. We changed our name to "iLinc Communications, Inc." from EDT Learning, Inc. to reflect not only the breadth of our Web conferencing products and services but also to reflect the integration of audio conferencing, video conferencing, and voice-over-IP technologies. The name change was approved by our stockholders at a special meeting of stockholders on February 5, 2004. Along with the name change, the Company's stock symbol changed to the new symbol of "ILC." PRODUCTS AND SERVICES FLAGSHIP PRODUCT LINE - ILINC SUITE iLinc provides integrated Web and audio conferencing software that addresses common business collaboration needs. The company is named after the flagship product - iLinc, which is a four product suite of software. The iLinc(TM) Suite includes: LearnLinc(TM) - which permits live instructor-led training and education over the Internet to remote students replicating the instructor-led environment; MeetingLinc(TM) - which facilitates more effective and economical communication through online meetings to replace in-person meetings or sales presentations; ConferenceLinc(TM) - which delivers one-to-many presentation capabilities for Web casts or marketing events; and SupportLinc(TM) - which gives customer service organizations the ability to provide remote, hands-on support for products, systems, or software applications. Our iLinc Web collaboration software suite is available in both a periodic license model (ASP) or a perpetual license model. Since its beginnings in 1994, LearnLinc and MeetingLinc have been installed and operational in large and small organizations throughout the United States and Internationally. LearnLinc(TM), the flagship of our four-product iLinc suite, won first place at the Synchronous e-Learning Shootout held at Online Learning's Conference in the fall of 2002, winning by a vote of training professionals over such other notable companies as WebEx, PlaceWare (now Microsoft Live), and Centra. AUDIO CONFERENCING Through its acquisition of Glyphics that was effective June 1, 2004, the Company now also delivers comprehensive audio conferencing solutions that help businesses provide virtual meetings, corporate events, distance learning programs, and daily conference calls. Its audio conferencing offering includes a wide array of products: 16 o Audio On-Demand (no reservations needed) -- The pre-established calling accounts for each user, you can create or participate in conference calls with no advance notice, 24/7; o Reserved Automated -- The solution for recurring calls, each participant has a permanent number and passcode; o Operator Assisted -- For important calls, this service includes an iLinc conference operator to host, monitor, and coordinate the call; and o Online Seminars -- Support online Web presentation with high-quality audio from iLinc. SUPPLEMENTAL TRAINING PRODUCTS While we have focused on our iLinc suite of products, we also continue to provide various e-Learning and training solutions that help to differentiate the product line from other pure play Web conferencing providers. o TECHNOLOGY: We offer training software products that like iLinc, promote online collaboration with products that integrate with our LearnLinc software. These include TestLinc(TM) - an assessment and quizzing tool that allows for formal testing and evaluation of students, and i-Canvas(TM) - a training content development software that allows non-technical training professionals to create Web-based training courses without programming. i-Canvas is sold on an individual user perpetual license basis. o SERVICES: We also offer custom content generation services through the Interactive Alchemy subcontractor relationship. Custom content services are bid on a project-by-project basis and revenue is recognized on the percentage-of-completed contract method. o CONTENT: We also offer a library of online courses focused upon the training of executives on essential business topics. Our off-the-shelf online library of content includes an online mini-MBA program co-developed with the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College. Customers subscribe for a period of time per course, with the license providing for access over typically one year from date the students first access of the course. INDUSTRY TRENDS We see several emerging industry trends in the Web conferencing and audio conferencing industries that we believe make us well positioned to take advantage of the predicted market growth. First, the industries that have embraced Web conferencing to a large degree continue to be the financial services sector, high technology sector and professional services sector. According to a recent report by the analyst group Frost and Sullivan, these two segments represented 52.2% of the total Web conferencing revenues in 2002 and will continue to be the largest single markets for Web conferencing revenue by 2009. Frost & Sullivan has also identified Professional Service agencies as a large adopter of the Web Conferencing from now until 2009. To that end, we now have more than 200 professional service companies that have chosen our Web conferencing solution as their tool of choice, including some of the larger organizations inside the Fortune 1000. A second notable trend is that specific features and licensing options are becoming increasingly important to the financial services sector, high technology and professional service markets. This has created what we believe to be unique opportunities for iLinc. Frost & Sullivan expects that desktop videoconferencing and voice over IP integration will be heavily utilized features among high technology companies in the immediate future and that Web conferencing vendors offering these functionalities within their solution will likely find numerous successes within this vertical market. Unlike many of our competitors, our video and voice over IP can be throttled for high bandwidth users or for low bandwidth users allowing anyone from a dial-up connection to utilize these features. Frost & Sullivan also expects that the financial services vertical market offers significant growth opportunities for those Web conferencing vendors offering a behind the firewall solution. iLinc is the only carrier class Web conferencing solution that offers both a behind the firewall solution installation combined with the strength of its feature set as well as its use of the latest Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) security. Prominent organizations inside the financial services sector of the Fortune 1000 have chosen our solution based upon these features. 17 Third, we expect to see an increase in the demand for a single source for audio and Web conferencing. Frost and Sullivan have noted in a separate report on audio conferencing that the demand for integrated audio, web, and video conferencing solutions continues to surge as end user needs for easy-to-use, single-source solutions swell. Developing and proving a truly converged user environment and experience, including the integration of audio, web and video conferencing technologies is essential. With our acquisition of Glyphic Communications we are now able to provide a single source for deeply integrated Web, audio, video as well as voice over IP. Increasingly, the vendor selection made for Web conferencing determines the selection made for audio conferencing. iLinc has already made significant progress in selling Web conferencing products to the Glyphics customer base as well as selling audio conferencing to the iLinc customer base. We believe that another benefit of the integrated conferencing approach is customer retention. According to the same Frost and Sullivan report, when Web conferencing and audio conferencing are sold together as an integrated package there is a significant increase in retention of the audio conferencing service. We have also found from customer surveys, this to be true and continuing to create incentives for our audio customers to be Web and audio customers to drive this retention. MARKET POSITION - DIFFERENTIATORS We view our position in the market as the appropriate solution for the enterprise-wide buyer in mature markets that have already adopted Web conferencing and collaboration. Our goal is to specialize so that we might reach the needs of target niches and be able to demonstrate specific value to these industries beyond the competition. Our target markets include financial services, high-tech and professional services. Frost and Sullivan noted in a recent report that these markets combined will deliver between 50% to 60% of the total Web conferencing market revenues this year. These vertical markets have been the early adopters of Web and audio conferencing and have become what we term as "mature conferencing buyers". Unlike other industries, the financial services, high technology and professional services markets have great familiarity with Web conferencing products and importantly, they have different needs. A growing number of these organizations have recognized that because the buying decision for Web conferencing has traditionally not been centralized, and in our experience they are using five or more different vendors for Web or audio conferencing services and therefore not realizing the economies of scale that consolidating to one or two vendors could provide. There are also other important considerations revolving around Web conferencing such as security and bandwidth availability that are inducing the buying decision for Web and audio conferencing out of the business units and into the IT department. We believe that our solution uniquely maps to critical IT requirements among these mature buyers in five important distinctions. First, we offer flexible licensing options that allow organizations to pay a one-time license fee to install the software inside of their environment, or organizations can contract with us annually to use our Web and audio conferencing services through an ASP arrangement . We also offer the ability for organizations to purchase perpetual licenses and then, have provided hosting in our co-location facility. We find this flexibility to be an important differentiator for customers making an enterprise-wide decision. As Frost & Sullivan notes, in many instances, Web conferencing is a migratory technology (from ASP to installed software) - new users tend to first utilize Web conferencing ASP services as they offer much more flexibility in terms of usage, ability to utilize multiple solutions, and require less up-front investment, and are less burdensome on enterprise resources. Therefore, a majority of new users that adopt web conferencing prior to 2007, are expected to initially adopt an ASP service-based solution, and then migrate to the purchase of a perpetual license. Second, as noted earlier we provide a completely integrated Web, audio, video and voice-over-IP conferencing solution with what we believe to be a rich-feature set. According to Web conferencing analyst, as the industry moves beyond the boundaries imposed by the term "web conferencing" to more of a rich media communications environment, those vendors that are ahead of the curve in terms of features and functionality will be around for the long-term survival. Vendors offering a "me too" solution are not expected to be active long-term competitors and are expected to disappear in the form of consolidation, acquisitions, or all together exit the market because of shrinking profits. Third, we offer the highest level of data security commercially available. We are the only Web conferencing provider that offers a customer hosted solution with a purchase license option and true point-to-point security with our unique combination of AES and secure socket layer (SSL). All information within a session can be transmitted between meeting attendees securely without any reduction in performance. Fourth, our solution is suitable and scalable for enterprise-wide deployment. The iLinc Suite addresses most common needs for business collaboration within the enterprise. We offer virtual classroom software with our LearnLinc product, software for presentation and sales demonstrations with MeetingLinc, customer support with SupportLinc, and software for Web casts and marketing events with ConferenceLinc. Each of these products share a common 18 interface enabling users of one product to easily understand any of our other products. This reduces the learning curve for Web conferencing enterprise-wide roll out and we believe increases adoption success. Fifth, we provide what we believe to be an exceptional "total cost of ownership" value. Our software and services are very competitively priced and also importantly, the customer's installation of our product is a very short and non-labor intensive process and maintenance of our software requires minimal attention from an IT perspective. We believe that all of these factors make our solution compelling to our target markets, but we also recognize that in order to grow our market share within the financial services, high technology and professional services verticals we need to develop products that address their specific needs. To that end, we have aligned our sales, marketing and product development efforts to build Web and audio conferencing functionality that delivers and addresses specific pains within each of our identified markets. For example, in the Financial Services community, companies are being mandated to secure and document every communication that happens inside and outside of their organization. We currently offer our AES data encryption solution that delivers this needed security and this year we plan to release enhanced communication and document management functionality that will completely fulfill these requirements. In the high tech community, Web conferencing is predominantly used for software or technology demonstrations. We arguably have the best application sharing technology in the industry with the ability to throttle bandwidth up or down to increase speed and performance. In the professional services community, the predominate use for Web conferencing is for training. Our product was originally built for training and we believe that it continues to be the best virtual classroom tool on the market. We believe our focus on gaining market share in our target markets correctly positions us for significant growth over future quarters. Our strategy has also been validated by industry experts in our space some who have noted iLinc as one of the first real time collaboration vendors that understands the need to move up the food chain to IT and wisely focus on three markets. SALES AND MARKETING FOCUS To leverage these advantages, our organization has launched a marketing and sales campaign inside these vertical markets with the goal of achieving growth in market share within the financial services, high tech and professional services markets. Our ability to attract and maintain these specific types of customers has given us a base of existing customers that we hope will enable us to further grow within these sectors and others. As to maintaining the existing customer base, our client services group is frequently praised in survey and online by our customers who also use our competitor's products as competitive. Our emphasis in client service has allowed us to strengthen the existing iLinc customer base while maintaining almost all of the previously existing clients in the 17 months since we acquired the software. The ability to maintain our customer base provides recurring maintenance revenues as well as opportunities for up-sales of our new iLinc products and services within those organizations. We recently added a new Senior Vice President of Sales who brings to us sales experience specifically in senior level sales positions with PlaceWare and Genesys Conferencing. The iLinc sales and marketing team has now grown a staff of 28 including an inside sales team focusing on the small-to-middle business market, a major / regional account team focused on enterprise sales, and an events services sales team that focuses on selling "high-touch " professionally-managed large Web and audio events. 19 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS As of March 31, 2004, we provide integrated Web and audio conferencing software and services with what we believe to be a very robust feature set that includes integrated video and voice over IP. Our name change is reflective of our focus in terms of research, development, sales and marketing on our award-winning suite of Web conferencing and collaboration software known as the iLinc Suite. The iLinc Suite includes: LearnLinc- permits live instructor-led training and education over the Internet to remote students replicating the instructor-led environment; MeetingLinc - facilitates more effective and economical communication through online meetings using voice-over-IP technology to avoid the expense of travel and long-distance charges; ConferenceLinc - delivers your message more consistently in a one-to-many format replicating professionally managed conferencing events; and SupportLinc - gives customer service organizations the ability to provide remote, hands-on support for products, systems, or software applications. The iLinc Suite is available in both an ASP and perpetual license purchase model. Since its beginnings in 1994, LearnLinc and MeetingLinc have been installed and operational in corporate, government, and educational organizations in the United States and internationally. LearnLinc, the flagship of iLinc's four-product iLinc suite, won first place at the Synchronous e-Learning Shootout held at Online Learning's Conference in the fall of 2002, winning by a vote of training professionals over such other notable companies as WebEx, PlaceWare (now Microsoft Live), and Centra. Our iLinc suite of products includes the ability to use integrated voice-over-IP and two-way live video. We have also completely integrated together audio conferencing services into the Web conferencing products. These services supplement the Web product but can also be purchased separately. On October 1, 2001, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Learning-Edge, Inc.; an Arizona based private e-learning company. The Company issued 1,950,000 common shares and $1.1 million of debt under the terms of the acquisition agreement. The debt bore interest at rates ranging from 7.5% to 9.0% and was due in two equal installments on October 1, 2003 and on October 1, 2004, respectively. The Company also assumed approximately $2.9 million of Learning-Edge debt as part of this acquisition. The operating results of Learning-Edge are included with the Company as of October 1, 2001. On January 15, 2002, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of ThoughtWare Technologies, Inc.; a Tennessee based private company. The Company issued 1,550,000 common shares under the terms of the acquisition agreement. The Company also assumed approximately $1.5 million of ThoughtWare debt as part of this acquisition. Since January 2002, operating results of ThoughtWare are included with the Company's results from operations. On March 29, 2003, the Company settled various disputes it had with the former shareholders of ThoughtWare Technologies, Inc. The settlement resulted in 365,000 of the shares issued in connection with the acquisition being returned to the Company. The Company valued the shares using the share price at the date of acquisition and recorded the returned shares as a $507,000 decrease to shareholders' equity and goodwill. On June 14, 2002, the Company acquired certain assets of Quisic Corporation ("Quisic"); a California based private e-Learning company in an asset purchase and common stock purchase transaction that involved the issuance of 2,000,000 common shares to certain shareholders of Quisic together with an additional 500,000 shares that were placed into escrow to secure a revenue performance requirement. That revenue performance target was not achieved and the Company demanded the return of the shares of common stock. The shareholders of Quisic do not dispute the right of the Company to obtain those shares. However, since the claims of the plaintiffs in the Kepner-Tregoe litigation matter assert potential rights to those shares, the shares were instead tendered to the registry of the trial court pending resolution of the party's respective claims (Please refer to Item 3 - Legal Proceedings). Those 500,000 shares are not counted as shares outstanding nor as treasury shares as the performance contingency associated with those shares was not met. The operating results of Quisic have been included in the consolidated operations of the Company commencing June 17, 2002. The purchase agreement requires that the Company pay certain contingent compensation to the seller if during the 5 year period following the closing certain sales to PBS and others occur. Through December 31, 2003, the Company had collected funds subject to this contingent provision, which resulted in required contingent payments totaling $300,000. On December 31, 2003, the seller agreed to convert the entire amount then due instead into 333,333 common shares the Company's common stock at the fair market price of $0.90 per share. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company had invoiced for but not received additional funds subject to this contingent provision, which resulted in accrued contingent payments totaling $50,000 due at March 31, 2004. 20 Effective November 4, 2002, the Company acquired certain assets of Mentergy, Inc. ("Mentergy") that included the LearnLinc Web collaboration and Web conferencing software that is the foundation for the iLinc suite of products (the "LearnLinc Assets"). In exchange for the LearnLinc Assets, the Company paid $500,000, with one half due at closing and the remaining payment due in a note that was due December 13, 2003, assumed scheduled liabilities equal to $462,000 and agreed to provide a royalty earn-out payment due upon sales of the LearnLinc product. The royalty earn-out is equal to 20% for all revenues collected by the Company from the sale or license of LearnLinc software over a three-year period beginning with the closing date, with the first $600,000 of collected revenues not subject to the royalty, and the maximum amount due under the agreement is $5,000,000. The Company accounts for any such amounts to be paid as additional purchase consideration in accordance with EITF No. 95-8 at the time related revenues are recognized. The Company has accrued LearnLinc royalties totaling $367,000 during fiscal year 2004. The operating results are included with the Company's as of November 4, 2002. On June 3, 2004, the Company executed an agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of and assume certain liabilities of Glyphics Communications, Inc., a Utah based private company. The acquisition had a stated effective date of June 1, 2004 and was fully consummated on June 14, 2004. The purchase price, which is expected to total $5.568 million, is based on a multiple of the Glyphics' 2003 estimated annual audited net audio conferencing business revenues. The purchase price will be paid with the assumption of approximately $2.114 million in specific liabilities, with the balance paid using the Company's common stock at the fixed price of $1.05 per share, or an estimated 3.524 million shares. The actual purchase price to be paid, and the resulting number of shares to be issued will be based upon the audited results that are expected to be obtained within sixty days of the closing date. Twenty percent of the consideration due is being held in escrow. Amounts held in escrow will be available to the Company to satisfy contingent claims and seller's indemnification obligations. Amounts held in escrow also may be returned to the Company in the event that audio conferencing revenue performance measures required to be obtained by the Company during the 2004 calendar year are not met. Individuals and entities participating in this transaction who are shareholders receiving the Company's common stock have the right to demand registration of the common stock issued therefrom upon written notice, one year from the date of the transaction, to the Company and also have piggy-back registration rights should the Company file a registration statement before the shares are otherwise registered. The operations of the Company involve many risks, which, even through a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation, may not be overcome. These risks include the fact that the market for e-learning products and services is in the early stages of development and may not grow to a sufficient size or at a sufficient rate to sustain the Company's business. The Company also faces intense competition from other e-learning providers and may be unable to compete successfully. Many of the Company's existing and potential competitors have longer operating histories and significantly greater financial, technical and other resources and therefore may be able to more quickly respond to changing opportunities or customer requirements. New competitors are also likely to enter this market in the future due to the lack of significant barrier to entry in the market share. See "Additional Risk Factors That May Affect Our Operating Results and The Market Price of Our Common Stock." REVENUES FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS Total revenues generated from continuing operations for the twelve months ended March 31, 2004 ("fiscal 2004") and March 31, 2003 ("fiscal 2003") were $5.9 million and $4.1 million, respectively, an increase of $1.8 million. License revenues from continuing operations increased $1.8 million from $447,000 in fiscal 2003 to $2.2 million in fiscal 2004 and service and maintenance revenues increased $100,000 from $3.6 million in fiscal 2003 to $3.7 million in fiscal 2004. The increase in revenue is a result of the Company's continuing expansion into the Web conferencing marketplace and concentrated sales and marketing strategies focused promoting the iLinc Suite of products. Total revenues from continuing operations generated for the twelve months ended March 31, 2003 ("fiscal 2003") and March 31, 2002 ("fiscal 2002") were $4.1 million and $2.7 million, respectively, an increase of $1.4 million. The Company recognized $92,000 of license revenue and $2.6 million of service and maintenance revenue in fiscal 2002. OPERATING EXPENSES FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS Operating expenses from continuing operations consist of research and development, sales and marketing, general and administrative, depreciation and amortization expenses. The Company incurred operating expenses from continuing 21 operations of $7.3 million in fiscal 2004, an increase of $600,000 from $6.7 million in fiscal 2003. This increase is primarily due to an increase in general and administrative costs of $600,000, sales and marketing costs of $200,000 and depreciation and amortization of $200,000. These increases are offset by a decrease in research and development costs of $400,000. Fiscal 2003 operating expenses from continuing operations were $6.7 million, a $3.3 million increase from fiscal 2002 operating expenses of $3.4 million. The increase is primarily due to the Company's strategic change in business and acquisitions of Thoughtware, Learning Edge, Quisic, and Mentergy, and cost increases which incurred as the acquired infrastructure became a part of iLinc's operations. Research and development expenses from continuing operations represent expenses incurred in connection with the provision of e-learning services, development of new products and new product versions and consist primarily of salaries and benefits, communication equipment and supplies. Research and development expenses for fiscal 2004 and fiscal 2003 were $2.8 million and $3.2 million respectively, a decrease of $400,000. Salaries and wages decreased $1.5 million and were partially offset by increased product development costs of $1.1 million, due to the spin-off of the custom content group to Interactive Alchemy in May 2003. Fiscal 2003 research and development expenses from continuing operations were $3.2 million, an increase of $900,000 from fiscal 2002 research and development expenses of $2.3 million. The increase is a result of the Company's acquisition of Quisic and the LearnLinc assets and related compensation and product development expenses. Sales and marketing expenses from continuing operations consist primarily of sales and marketing salaries and benefits, travel, advertising, and other marketing literature. Sales and marketing expenses were $1.8 million and $1.7 million for fiscal 2004 and fiscal 2003, respectively, an increase of $100,000. The increase is primarily from product royalty fees of $94,000 relating to the increased sales of software licenses of the Executive Training Library(TM) courseware and an increase in printing and advertising costs of $34,000 relating to the Company's name change in February 2004. Fiscal 2003 sales and marketing expenses from continuing operations were $1.7 million, an increase of $945,000 from fiscal 2002 sales and marketing expenses of $755,000. The increase is a result of the Company's change in business and addition of sales and marketing personnel focused on promoting the iLinc Suite. General and administrative expenses from continuing operations consist of the corporate expenses of the Company. These corporate expenses include salaries and benefits of executive, finance and administrative personnel, rent, bad debt expense, professional services, travel, office costs and other general corporate expenses. During fiscal 2004 and 2003, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations were $2.2 million and $1.6 million, respectively, an increase of $600,000. General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to the Company's change in strategy and the acquisition of LearnLinc, and was primarily composed of increases in occupancy expenses of $147,000, legal fees of $105,000, compensation and related benefits of $142,000, general insurance of $91,000, telephone of $70,000, office expenses of $72,000, travel and entertainment of $53,000, other professional fees of $47,000 and investor relation expenses of $27,000. These and other increases were partially offset by bad debt recoveries of $284,000. During fiscal 2003 and 2002, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations were $1.6 million and $269,000 respectively, an increase of $1.3 million. General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to the Company's change in business strategy, and were composed of increases in compensation and related benefits of $562,000, occupancy expenses of $289,000, investor relations expenses of $148,000, and accounting fees of $118,000, as a result of the increased allocation of expense to continuing operations and the Quisic and Mentergy acquisitions. Fiscal 2004 and 2003 depreciation and amortization expense relating to continuing operations was $462,000 and $250,000, respectively, an increase of $212,000. The increase is a result of the acquisitions of Quisic and LearnLinc assets and purchases of computer servers and other equipment necessary to facilitate sales and service of our products. In fiscal 2002, depreciation and amortization expense was $99,000. 22 INTEREST EXPENSE FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS Interest expense from continuing operations remained constant at $1.2 million in fiscal 2004 and fiscal 2003. During fiscal 2004, the Company incurred one-time charges to interest expense resulting from conversions of notes into the Company's common stock totaling $48,500. Interest expense increased $900,000 during fiscal 2003 from $298,000 in fiscal 2002. The increase is primarily a result of the interest associated with the $5.8 million of convertible notes issued in March 2002. INCOME TAX EXPENSE FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS The Company recorded no tax benefit during fiscal 2004 because it concluded it is not likely it would be able to recognize the tax asset created due to the lack of operating history of its e-Learning business strategy. At March 31, 2004, the Company has a net deferred tax asset of $10.7 million with a corresponding valuation allowance. The Company's tax benefits are scheduled to expire over a period of five to thirteen years. The Company recorded no tax expense during fiscal 2004 and 2003 as a result of the losses it incurred in those years and did not record a tax benefit during fiscal 2002 due to the utilization of its fully reserved net operating loss carry-forward. RESULTS OF DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS Effective January 1, 2004, the Company discontinued its dental practice management services. Results of operations from this segment are presented as discontinued operations for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 in accordance with SFAS 146 "ACCOUNTING FOR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES". Net income from discontinued operations for fiscal 2004, 2003 and 2002 were $275,000, $133,000, and $6.9 million, respectively. Cash flows provided by discontinued operations was $387,000, $1.6 million and $1.1 million during the fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company has a working capital deficiency, has incurred operating losses and has negative cash flows from continued operations. The Company currently does not have existing working capital and does not generate positive cash flows from operations. As a result, we may not have sufficient financial resources to satisfy our obligations as they come due in the near term. These matters, among others, including our limited operating history as a provider of Web conferencing and Web collaboration software have caused our auditors to conclude in their report that there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our plan with regard to these matters includes the continued development, marketing and licensing of our iLinc suite of products and services through both internal sales efforts and through external channel partnerships. We plan to expand where appropriate with external growth by acquisition, with those acquisitions including providers of audio conferencing as well as Web conferencing products and services. Although we continue to pursue these plans, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining sufficient revenues from its Web collaboration and e-Learning products and services to provide adequate cash flows to sustain our operations. Our continuation as a Company may be dependent on our ability to raise additional equity or debt capital, to continue to increase sales and revenues, to generate positive cash flows from operations and ultimately to achieve profitability. In order to increase its liquidity, the Company intends to restructure or extend existing obligations to reduce cash outflows for debt service, seek, if necessary, additional funding from the placement of debt or equity securities, invest in further marketing and sales efforts that result in the sale of the Company's high margin software products and services. However, there can be no assurance that the Company's plans will be achieved or that the Company will be able to acquire additional sums. At March 31, 2004, the Company had a working capital deficit of $3.1 million. Current assets included $292,000 in cash and $1.1 million in accounts receivable and $100,000 in prepaids and other assets. Current liabilities consisted of $1.1 million of deferred revenue, $1.2 million of current maturities of long-term debt and capital leases and $2.3 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. CASH FLOWS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS Cash used in operating activities was $1.1 million during fiscal 2004 and $2.1 million during fiscal 2003. Cash used in operating activities during fiscal 2004 was primarily attributable to a net loss of $2.3 million and 23 increases in accounts receivable and other assets of $430,000. These items were partially offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $750,000 and non-cash expenses and revenues totaling $900,000. Cash used in operating activities during fiscal 2003 was $2.1 million and was primarily attributable to a net loss of $3.9 million and an increase in accounts receivable of $177,000. These items were partially offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $922,000 and non-cash expenses and revenues totaling $1.0 million. Cash provided by operating activities was $55,000 during fiscal 2002 primarily due to an increase in accounts payable of $950,000 and non-cash expenses and revenues totaling $588,000. These items were partially offset by a net loss of $1.1 million and an increase in accounts receivable of $400,000. Cash used by investing activities was $400,000, $126,000 and $158,000 in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Cash used by investing activities during fiscal 2004 was primarily due to capital expenditures of $66,000 and acquisitions, net of cash acquired of $370,000. Cash used by investing activities during fiscal 2003 was primarily due to capital expenditure of $64,000 and issuance of note receivable of $100,000. Cash used by investing activities in fiscal 2002 was primarily due to acquisitions, net of cash acquired of $100,000 and capital expenditures of $40,000. Cash provided in financing activities was $926,000 during fiscal 2004. Cash used in financing activities was $500,000 during fiscal 2003 and $500,000 during fiscal 2002. Cash provided in financing activities during fiscal 2004 was primarily due to proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock of $1.5 million and issuance of long-term debt of $500,000. These were partially offset by the repayment of long-term debt of $560,000 and $200,000 in financing costs. Cash used in financing activities during fiscal 2003 was due to the repayment of debt and capital leases of $510,000. Cash used in financing activities during fiscal 2002 was primarily attributable to the repayment of debt and capital leases of $5.5 million and financing costs incurred of $830,000. These uses of cash were partially offset by the proceeds of the Private Placement Offering (the "Offering") of $5.8 million. HISTORICAL ACTIVITIES RELATED TO ACQUISITIONS AND CAPITAL RAISE ACTIVITIES In connection with the Company's IPO in March of 1998, the Company issued $468,000 of notes (the "IPO Notes") to certain shareholders who had provided capital prior to the IPO. Originally, interest accrued at the rate of 6% with the entire amount due on March 30, 2003. Many of the IPO Note holders agreed to have the accrued interest added to the principal balance and extended the maturity date to April 1, 2005 in exchange for quarterly payments of interest and an increase in the interest rate to 10%. The total outstanding principal balance on these IPO Notes is $278,000 as of March 31, 2004. The Company had issued in 1998 as a part of the consideration due to Affiliated Practices certain subordinated promissory notes (the "Series A Notes"). On September 19, 2003, all of the outstanding principal balance of the Series A Notes, in the sum of $849,000, were converted into 1,572,222 shares of the Company's common stock. A conversion price of $0.54 per share was used as the fair price per share which was the preceding twenty trading day average closing price of the Company's common stock. As a result of that conversion, the Company recorded a $252,000 charge associated with the conversion of the Series A Notes due to a difference in the closing price of the Company's common stock on the day of conversion and the twenty trading day average closing price. Holders of the Series A Notes included James M. Powers, Jr., who had received a $76,000 Series A Note as a part of the consideration paid to him from his own Affiliated Practice transaction in 1998. In October 2001, the Company issued $1.1 million of subordinated promissory notes to the shareholders of Learning-Edge, Inc. under the terms of the acquisition agreement (the "Learning-Edge Notes"). The Learning-Edge Notes bear interest at rates ranging from at 7.5% to 9.0% and were due in two equal installments on April 5, 2005 and on October 1, 2005, respectively. The Learning-Edge Notes provided for pre-payment in the event that the Company raised additional capital between $3 and $5 million. The total outstanding principal balance on these notes is $0.9 million as of March 31, 2004. As a result of the capital raise in April of 2004 of $4.25 million, all of the outstanding balance of these notes have been fully extinguished subsequent to March 31, 2004, with cash payments of $333,000 and conversions of $583,000 of notes into 550,633 shares of the Company's common stock. In March 2002, the Company completed a private placement offering (the "Convertible Note Offering") raising capital of $5,775,000 that was used to extinguish an existing line of credit. Under the terms of the Convertible Note Offering, the Company issued unsecured subordinated convertible notes (the "Convertible Notes"). The Convertible Notes bear interest at the rate of 12% per annum and require quarterly interest payments, with the principal due at 24 maturity on March 29, 2012. The holders of the Convertible Note may convert the principal into shares of the Company's common stock at the fixed price of $1.00 per share. The Company may force redemption by conversion of the principal into common stock at the fixed conversion price, if at any time the 20 trading day average closing price of the Company's common stock exceeds $3.00 per share. The notes are subordinated to any present or future senior indebtedness. The placement agent received a commission of $577,500 plus $173,250 as a non-accountable expense reimbursement and received a warrant to purchase units on the same basis as other investors representing ten percent of the gross proceeds at a price of 110% of that paid by investors. As a part of the Convertible Note Offering the Company also issued warrants to purchase 5,775,000 shares of the Company's common stock for an exercise price of $3.00 per share. The Company may force redemption of the warrants if at any time the 20 trading day average closing price of the Company's common stock exceeds $5.50 per share, and the warrants expire on March 29, 2005. The fair value of the warrants was estimated using a Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: contractual and expected life of three years, volatility of 75%, dividend yield of 0%, and a risk-free rate of 3.87%. A discount to the Convertible Notes of $1,132,000 was recorded using this value, which is being amortized to interest expense over the ten (10) year term of the Convertible Notes. As the carrying value of the notes is less than the conversion value, a beneficial conversion feature of $1,132,000 was calculated and recorded as an additional discount to the notes and is being amortized to interest expense over the ten (10) year term of the Convertible Notes. Upon conversion, any remaining discount associated with the beneficial conversion feature will be expensed in full at the time of conversion. During fiscal 2004 holders with a principal balance totaling $150,000 converted their notes into common shares of the Company. On September 16, 2003, the Company completed its private placement of convertible preferred stock with detachable warrants. The Company sold 30 units at $50,000 each and raised a total of $1,500,000. Each unit consisted of 5,000 shares of convertible preferred stock, par value $0.001 and a warrant to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock. The convertible preferred stock is convertible into the Company's common stock at a price of $0.50 per share (subject to adjustment in certain events, with a floor of $0.30), and the warrants are immediately exercisable at a price of $1.50 per share with a three-year term. Accordingly, each share of preferred stock is convertible into 20 shares of common stock and retains a $10 liquidation preference. The Company pays an 8% dividend to holders of the convertible preferred stock, and the dividend is cumulative. The convertible preferred stock is non-voting and non-participating. The shares of convertible preferred stock will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and were offered in a private placement providing exemption from registration. The placement agent was paid a commission of $150,000 or 10% of the gross proceeds plus $45,000, which represented a 3% non-accountable expense fee and received a warrant to purchase 3 units at the same terms of the original units. In addition, the Company paid $17,000 in legal and accounting fees bringing the net proceeds raised to $1,288,000. The Company plans on using the net proceeds for general working capital, to expand its sales and marketing activities and to retire certain acquisition related liabilities. The cash proceeds of the private placement of convertible preferred stock was allocated pro-rata between the relative fair values of the preferred stock and warrants at issuance using the Black Scholes valuation model for valuing the warrants. After allocating the proceeds between the preferred stock and warrant, an effective conversion price was calculated for the convertible preferred stock to determine the beneficial conversion discount for each share. The aggregate value of the warrants and the beneficial conversion discount of $247,000 are considered a deemed dividend in the calculation of loss per share. Subsequent to March 31, 2004, holders of 22,500 shares converted to 450,000 shares of common stock. In connection with the acquisition of certain assets from Mentergy, Inc. (and its wholly owned subsidiary LearnLinc Corporation), the Company issued among other consideration a secured promissory note with a principal balance of $250,000 that was due on December 13, 2003 (the "Mentergy Note"). By agreement with Mentergy and its assignees, the Company paid $50,000 in principal amount on the note during December of 2003. The remaining balance of $200,000 was paid in full in February 2004, and Mentergy has released any security interests they had in the Company's assets. In February of 2004, the Company completed a private placement offering raising capital of $500,000 that will be used for general corporate purposes. Under the terms of the offering, the Company issued unsecured subordinated convertible notes that have a term of 24 months (subject to adjustment in certain events), and the notes are subordinated to any present or future senior indebtedness. The notes bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum for the first twelve months and then 10% for the second twelve months (subject to a retroactive adjustment to 15% if the underlying shares into which the notes are convertible have not been registered by July 31, 2004) and require quarterly payments of interest only, with the principal due at maturity on February 12, 2006. The holders of the notes may convert the outstanding principal into shares of the Company's common stock at the fixed price of $0.70 per share (subject to adjustments for dilution, as defined). At the issue date, the Company calculated 25 a beneficial conversion feature of the notes to be $214,286, which will be amortized as interest expense over the 2-year life of the debt. The holders of the notes retain certain demand and piggy-back registration rights. Subsequent to year end, holders with a principal balance totaling $500,000 converted their notes into 714,285 shares of the Company's common stock. ACTIVITIES RELATED TO ACQUISITIONS AND CAPITAL RAISE ACTIVITIES OCCURRING SHORTLY AFTER THE FISCAL YEAR END In April of 2004, the Company completed a private placement offering raising capital of $4,250,000 that provided the Company $3.8 million of net proceeds. Under the terms of this offering, the Company issued $3,187,500 in unsecured senior notes and 1,634,550 shares of Common Stock of the Company. The senior notes were issued as a series of notes pursuant to a unit purchase and agency agreement. The senior notes are unsecured, non-convertible, and the purchasers received no warrants. The placement agent received a commission equal to 10% of the gross proceeds together with a warrant for the purchase of 163,455 shares of the Company's common stock at a price equal to 120% of the price paid by investors. The senior notes bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum and accrued interest is due and payable on a quarterly basis beginning July 15, 2004, with principal due at maturity on July 15, 2007. The senior notes are redeemable by the Company at 100% of the principal value at any time after July 15, 2005. The senior notes are unsecured obligations of the Company but are senior in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company. The underlying common stock that would be issued upon conversion of the preferred stock and upon exercise of the associated warrants have been registered with the SEC and may be sold pursuant to a resale prospectus dated May 24, 2004. On June 3, 2004, the Company executed an agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of and assume certain liabilities of Glyphics Communications, Inc., a Utah based private company that is a provider of comprehensive audio conferencing products and services. The acquisition had a stated effective date of June 1, 2004 and was fully consummated on June 14, 2004. The purchase price, which is expected to total $5.568 million, is based on a multiple of the Glyphics' 2003 estimated annual audited net audio conferencing business revenues. The purchase price will be paid with the assumption of approximately $2.114 million in specific liabilities, with the balance paid using the Company's common stock at the fixed price of $1.05 per share, or an estimated 3.524 million shares. The actual purchase price to be paid, and the resulting number of shares to be issued will be based upon the audited results that are expected to be obtained within sixty days of the closing date. Twenty percent of the consideration due is being held in escrow. Amounts held in escrow will be available to the Company to satisfy contingent claims and seller's indemnification obligations. Amounts held in escrow also may be returned to the Company in the event that audio conferencing revenue performance measures required to be obtained by the Company during the 2004 calendar year are not met. Individuals and entities participating in this transaction who are shareholders receiving the Company's common stock have the right to demand registration of the common stock issued therefrom upon written notice, one year from the date of the transaction, to the Company and also have piggy-back registration rights should the Company file a registration statement before the shares are otherwise registered. The Company has been a reseller of Glyphics' audio conferencing services for over six months and already offers an integrated Web and Audio On-DemandTM product. Glyphics offers a wide array of audio conferencing products that include: Audio On-Demand (no reservations needed) with pre-established calling accounts for each user to create or participate in conference calls with no advance notice, 24/7; Reserved Automated where each participant has a permanent number and passcode for recurring calls; Operator Assisted that includes an iLinc conference operator to host, monitor, and coordinate the call; and Online Seminars that support online Web presentations with high-quality audio from iLinc. The Company plans to continue to pursue the business formerly conducted by the seller on an integrated basis with its existing Web conferencing products. 26 CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS The following schedule details all of the Company's indebtedness and the required payments related to such obligations at March 31, 2004 (IN THOUSANDS): DUE IN DUE IN YEARS LESS THAN DUE IN DUE IN YEAR FOUR AND DUE AFTER TOTAL ONE YEAR YEAR TWO THREE FIVE FIVE YEARS ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Long term debt................ $ 7,365 $ 961 $ 779 $ -- $ -- $ 5,625 Capital lease obligations..... 304 289 15 -- -- -- Operating lease obligations... 2,210 743 639 463 177 188 Base salary commitments under employment agreements................. 881 506 375 -- -- -- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Total contractual obligations. $ 10,760 $ 2,499 $ 1,808 $ 463 $ 177 $ 5,813 =========== =========== =========== =========== =========== =========== CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES The Company's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The more significant areas requiring use of estimates relate to revenue recognition, accounts receivable and notes receivable valuation reserves, realizability of intangible assets, realizability of deferred income tax assets, and the evaluation of contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of such estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. REVENUE RECOGNITION Our revenues are generally classified into two main categories - license revenue and service and maintenance revenue. License revenue is generated from the sale of our iLinc suite of Web conferencing software on a purchase-model (perpetual license basis) and from the sale of our off-the-shelf courseware, primarily the online Bridge (Mini-MBA) program. The service revenue aspect of our Service and Maintenance revenue is primarily generated from the sale of our iLinc Web conferencing software on a periodic license basis (i.e., ASP or per minute), as well as, all service contracts that might include hosting, and training services. Service and Maintenance revenue also includes all revenue arising from maintenance and upgrade contracts that are sold with our iLinc Web conferencing software purchases. Included in our Service and Maintenance revenue are the revenues associated with our custom content development services. Sales of Software Licenses We earn our revenues from the sale of software licenses and service and maintenance agreements related to those software license sales. We offer our software and services in one of two forms, the first being a purchase model that permits the purchase of a perpetual license, and the second being an ASP or per minute model that permits the purchase of a periodic term license. The iLinc suite of Web conferencing products is sold utilizing both the purchase model and the ASP model with separate revenue recognition policies applicable to each model. With each sale of our products and services, we execute contracts that govern the terms and conditions of each software license sale, hosting agreement, maintenance and support agreement and other services arrangements. 27 In connection with the Company's sales of software licenses, the Company adopted Statement of Position ("SOP") 97-2 as issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. In accordance with SOP 97-2, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of software licenses if all of the following conditions are met: First, there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement with the customer; Second, the product has been delivered to the customer; Third, the amount of the fees to be paid by the customer is fixed or determinable; and, Fourth, collection of the fee is probable. Each of these factors, particularly the determination of whether a fee is fixed and determinable and the collectability of the resulting receivable, requires the application of the judgment and the estimates of management. Therefore, significant management judgment is utilized and estimates must be made in connection with the revenue we recognize in any accounting period. We analyze various factors, including a review of the nature of the license or product sold, the terms of specific transaction, the vendor specific objective evidence of the elements required by SOP 97-2, any contingencies that may be present, our historical experience with like transactions or with like products, the creditworthiness of the customer, and other current market and economic conditions. Changes in our judgment based upon these factors and others could impact the timing and amount of revenue that we recognize, and ultimately the results of operations and our financial condition. Therefore, the recognition of revenue is a key component of our results of operations. At the time of the sale of our perpetual software license, we assess whether the fee associated with the transaction is fixed or determinable based on the payment terms associated with the transaction before recording immediate revenue recognition, assuming all other elements of revenue recognition are present. Billings to our customers are generally due within 30 to 90 days, with payment terms up to 120 days available to certain credit worthy customers. We believe that we will have sufficient history of collecting all amounts within these normal payment terms and to conclude that the fee is fixed or determinable at the time of the perpetual license sale. Under certain circumstances, we have offered payment terms greater than 120 days and up to as much as twelve months to certain customers, for sales involving our Web conferencing perpetual license products where license revenue would normally be recognized upon delivery of the product. However, we currently do not believe that we have sufficient history of selling the iLinc Suite of products under perpetual license arrangements with extended payment terms exceeding 120 days, and therefore will record revenue when the payments from the customer are due, rather than immediately upon delivery of the product and collection is probable, assuming all other elements of revenue recognition are present. Beginning in fiscal 2004, we began offering payment terms of 180 days and anticipate continuing using those 180-day payment terms related to sales of our perpetual license products. While we do not at this time believe that we have sufficient history of selling perpetual licenses with 180-day payment terms to determine that such fees are fixed and determinable, we do expect to consider those 180-day payment terms to be normal payment terms for certain well capitalized customers when we have such a history, and accordingly, at that time will include those sales in revenue when the perpetual license sale occurs (again assuming all other aspects of revenue recognition are present). We consider all arrangements with payment terms longer than 180 days not to be fixed or determinable and for arrangements involving the extended payment terms exceeding 180 days, revenue recognition occurs when payments are due and collection is probable, assuming all other elements of revenue recognition are present. In addition, in assessing whether collection is probable or not for a given transaction, and therefore whether we should recognize the revenue, we make estimates regarding the creditworthiness of the customer. Initial creditworthiness is assessed through internal credit check processes, such as credit applications or third party reporting agencies. Creditworthiness for transactions to existing customers primarily relies upon a review of their prior payment history. We do not request collateral or other security from our customers. If we determine that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, we defer the fee and recognize revenue at the time collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon the receipt of payment or other change in circumstance. Sales of Concurrent Licenses (ASP) and Per Minute Basis Historically, a majority of our license revenue has been generated under the purchase model with revenue recognized based on a one-time sale of a perpetual license. In addition to that purchase model, we also offer a more flexible monthly, fixed-fee subscription pricing model (ASP Model) and a per-minute usage based model. Under our subscription or ASP model, a customer may subscribe to a certain number of concurrent connections or seats for a fixed period, often a year. Under this ASP method, we recognize the revenue associated with these monthly, fixed-fee subscription arrangements each month on a straight line basis over the term of the agreement. Other customers choose to avoid 28 annual commitments and instead use our Web conferencing and audio conferencing products and services based upon a per minute or usage-based pricing model. Per minute customers may also include those customers on an ASP model that incur overage fees for usage in excess of the permitted number of seats or minutes in excess of the minimum commitment. The per minute fees that include overage fees are charged at the end of each month and recorded as revenue at the end of each month as the services are provided. Customers with contractually established minimum per minute fees are assessed the greater of the established minimum or the actual usage at the end of each month. Customers wishing to avoid monthly commitments may use the e-commerce portion of our web site that permits the use our Web conferencing services on a pay-per-use basis, with no monthly minimum, purchasing the services and paying for those services online by credit card. Sales of Maintenance, Hosting and other Related Services The Company offers with each sale of its software products a software maintenance, upgrade and support arrangement. These contracts may be elements in a multiple-element arrangement or may be sold in a stand-alone basis. Revenues from maintenance and support services are recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the term that the maintenance service is provided. Maintenance contracts typically provide for 12 month terms with maintenance contracts available up to 36 months. Revenues from consulting, training and education services are recognized either as the services are performed, ratably over a subscription period, or upon completing a project milestone if defined in the agreement. These consulting, training and education services, are not considered essential to the functionality of our products as these services do not alter the product capabilities, do not require specialized skills, and are often performed by the customer or our VAR's customers without access to those services. Implementation, consulting, training, translation, and other event type services may also be sold in conjunction with the sale of our software products. Those services are generally recognized as the services are performed or if earlier when all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. Although the Company may provide implementation, training and consulting services on a time and materials basis, a significant portion of these services have been provided on a fixed-fee basis. Should the sale of our software involve an arrangement with multiple elements (for example, the sale of a software license along with the sale of maintenance and support to be delivered over the contract period), we allocate revenue to each component of the arrangement using the residual value method based on the fair value of the undelivered elements. We defer revenue from the arrangement equivalent to the fair value of the undelivered elements and recognize the remaining amount at the time of the delivery of the product or when all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. Fair values for the ongoing maintenance and support obligations are based upon separate sales of renewals of maintenance contracts. Fair value of services, such as training or consulting, is based upon separate sales of these services to other customers. Thus, these types of arrangements require us to make judgments about the fair value of undelivered arrangements. Sales of Custom Content Development Services A component of our service and maintenance revenue is derived from custom content development services. The sale of custom content development services often involves the execution of a master service agreement and corresponding work orders describing the deliverable due, the costs involved, the project milestones and the payments required. For contracts and revenues related exclusively to custom content development services, the Company recognizes revenue and profit as work progresses on custom content service contracts using the percentage-of-completion method. This method relies on estimates of total expected contract revenue and costs as each job progresses throughout the relevant contract period. The Company follows this method since reasonably dependable estimates of the costs applicable to various stages of a custom content service contract can be made. Recognized revenues and profit are subject to revisions as the custom content service contract progresses to completion. Revisions in profit estimates are charged to income in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known. Customers sometimes request modifications to projects in progress which may result in significant revisions to cost estimates and profit recognition, and the Company may not be successful in negotiating additional payments related to the changes in scope of requested services. Should this arise, the provision for any estimated losses on uncompleted custom content service contracts are made in the period in which such losses become evident. There were no such losses at March 31, 2004 for any custom content development services. For arrangements requiring customer acceptance, revenue is deferred until the earlier of the end of the acceptance period or until written notice of acceptance is received from the customer. 29 Sales by VAR's and Agents The Company has engaged organizations within the United States of America and in twelve other countries that market and sell its products and services through their sales distribution channels that are value added resellers (VAR's). The VAR's primarily sell, on a non-exclusive basis, our iLinc suite of Web conferencing products and predominately sell purchase-model perpetual licenses for installation and hosting by the VAR's customer. The Company's VAR contracts have terms of one to two years and are automatically renewed for an additional like term unless either party terminates the agreement for breach or other financial reasons. Each VAR purchases the product from the Company and resells the product to its customers. Under those VAR agreements, the Company records only the amount paid by the VAR as revenue and recognizes revenue when all revenue recognition criteria have been met. The Company also engages organizations that act as mere agents or distributors of its products ("Agents"), without title passing to the Agent and with the Agent only receiving a commission on the consummation of the sale to our customer. The Company records revenue on sales by Agents on a gross basis before commissions due to the Agent and only when all revenue recognition criteria are met as would be with a sale by the Company directly to a customer not involving an agent. Sales Reserves The sales reserve is an estimate for losses on receivables resulting from customer credits, cancellations and terminations and is recorded, if at all, as a reduction in revenue at the time of the sale. Increases to sales reserve are charged to revenue, reducing the revenue otherwise reportable. The sales reserve estimate is based on an analysis of the historical rate of credits, cancellations and terminations. The accuracy of the estimate is dependent on the rate of future credits, cancellations and terminations being consistent with the historical rate. If the rate of actual credits, cancellations and terminations is different than the historical rate, revenue would be different from what was reported. As of March 31, 2004, we did not believe that an accrual for sales reserves was appropriate, but continue to assess the adequacy of the sales reserve account balance on a quarterly basis. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts We record an allowance for doubtful accounts to provide for losses on accounts receivable due to customer credit risk. Increases to the allowance for doubtful accounts are charged to general and administrative expense as bad debt expense. Losses on accounts receivable due to financial distress or failure of the customer are charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance estimate is based on an analysis of the historical rate of credit losses. The accuracy of the estimate is dependent on the future rate of credit losses being consistent with the historical rate. If the rate of future credit losses is greater than the historical rate, then the allowance for doubtful accounts may not be sufficient to provide for actual credit losses. The allowance for doubtful accounts for iLinc Web collaboration product sales is, as of March 31, 2004, $24,000 and is based on our historical collection experience. Any adjustments to these accounts are reflected in the income statement for the current period, as an adjustment to revenue in the case of the sales reserve and as a general and administrative expense in the case of the allowance for doubtful accounts. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS The Company accounts for software development costs in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed," whereby costs for the development of new software products and substantial enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at which time any additional costs are capitalized. Technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Costs of maintenance and customer support are charged to expense when related revenue is recognized or when those costs are incurred, whichever occurs first. Software development costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility have not been significant to date, and all software development costs have been charged to research and development expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. INTANGIBLE ASSETS On April 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" and as a result, the Company's goodwill is no longer amortized. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill be tested annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment. Upon initial 30 application of SFAS No. 142, the Company determined there was no impairment of goodwill. The Company has established the date of March 31 on which to value its goodwill. The Company has made acquisitions of companies having operations or technology in areas within its strategic focus and has recorded goodwill and other intangible assets associated with its acquisitions. Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of the underlying acquired operations could result in losses or an inability to recover the carrying value of the goodwill and other intangible assets thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge in the future. As of March 31, 2004, the Company has identified no such impairment. Debt issuance costs are amortized using the effective interest rate method over the ten-year term of the related debt obligations. Other intangibles primarily consist of the Quisic and LearnLinc purchase consideration that was allocated to purchased software and customer relationship intangibles. Such other intangible are amortized over their expected benefit period of twenty four to thirty six months. INCOME TAXES The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under this method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted marginal tax rates currently in effect when the differences reverse. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of its net deferred tax assets because it has concluded that it is more likely than not that it will not be realized. The Company has considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance. In the event the Company was to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase net income in the period such a determination was made. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - TRANSITION AND DISCLOSURE - AN AMENDMENT TO SFAS NO. 123." SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method on accounting for stock-based employee compensation. The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 and accordingly the implementation of SFAS No. 148 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. GUARANTEES AND INDEMNIFICATIONS In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 45 "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others -- an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and rescission of FIN 34." The following is a summary of the Company's agreements that the Company has determined are within the scope of FIN No. 45: The Company provides a 90-day warranty for certain of its products. Historically, the Company's performance under the warranty has been minimal, and as such, no warranty accrual has been provided for in the Company's consolidated financial statements. Under its bylaws, the Company has agreed to indemnify its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences arising as a result of the officer's or director's serving in such capacity. The term of the indemnification period is for the officer's or director's lifetime. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited. However, the Company has a director and officer liability insurance policy that limits its exposure and enables it to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. As a result of its insurance policy coverage, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal and has no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of March 31, 2004. 31 The Company enters into indemnification provisions under (i) its agreements with other companies in its ordinary course of business, typically with business partners, contractors, and customers, landlords and (ii) its agreements with investors. Under these provisions the Company generally indemnifies and hold harmless the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party as a result of the Company's activities or, in some cases, as a result of the indemnified party's activities under the agreement. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is unlimited. The Company has not incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. As a result, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these agreements is minimal. Accordingly, the Company has no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of March 31, 2004. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "ACCOUNTING FOR ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS", which requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred with the associated asset retirement costs being capitalized as a part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. SFAS No. 143 also includes disclosure requirements that provide a description of asset retirement obligations and reconciliation of changes in the components of those obligations. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The implementation of SFAS No. 143 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS," which addresses accounting and financial reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This standard was effective for the Company's consolidated financial statements beginning January 1, 2002. The implementation of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "RESCISSION OF FASB STATEMENTS NO. 4, 44, AND 64, AMENDMENT OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 13, AND TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS." SFAS No. 145 rescinded three previously issued statements and amended SFAS No. 13, "ACCOUNTING FOR LEASES." The statement provides reporting standards for debt extinguishments and provides accounting standards for certain lease modifications that have economic effects similar to sale-leaseback transactions. The statement is effective for certain lease transactions occurring after May 15, 2002 and all other provisions of the statement shall be effective for fiscal years ending after May 15, 2002. The implementation of SFAS No. 145 will effect the classification of extraordinary items presented in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Such gains will no longer be considered extraordinary in nature and will be reclassified to operations. In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "ACCOUNTING FOR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES," which updates accounting and reporting standards for personnel and operational restructurings. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 146 for exit, disposal or other restructuring activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In April 2003, SFAS No. 149, "AMENDMENT OF STATEMENT 133 ON DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES" was issued. This statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. Adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In May 2003, SFAS No. 150, "ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH CHARACTERISTICS OF BOTH LIABILITIES AND EQUITY" was issued. This statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. On December 18, 2003 the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, REVENUE RECOGNITION ("SAB 104"), which supersedes SAB 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. SAB 104's primary purpose is to rescind accounting guidance contained in SAB 101 related to multiple element revenue arrangements, 32 which was superseded as a result of the issuance of EITF 00-21, "Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables." The adoption of SAB 104 did not have a material impact the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In December 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46R") (revised December 2003), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51" ("ARB 51"), which addresses how a business enterprise should evaluate whether it has a controlling interest in an entity though means other than voting rights and accordingly should consolidate the entity. FIN 46R replaces FASB Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), which was issued in January 2003. Before concluding that it is appropriate to apply ARB 51 voting interest consolidation model to an entity, an enterprise must first determine that the entity is not a variable interest entity (VIE). As of the effective date of FIN 46R, an enterprise must evaluate its involvement with all entities or legal structures created before February 1, 2003, to determine whether consolidation requirements of FIN 46R apply to those entities. There is no grandfathering of existing entities. Public companies must apply either FIN 46 or FIN 46R immediately to entities created after December 15, 2003 and no later than the end of the first reporting period that ends after March 15, 2004 to entities considered to be special purpose entities. The adoption of FIN 46R did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. 33 ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT OUR OPERATING RESULTS AND THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK You should carefully consider the risks described below. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could be adversely affected. WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY, WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO EVALUATE OUR BUSINESS. We have a limited operating history in the Web conferencing e-Learning business. While the organizations that we have acquired have been engaged in the their respective business for over five years, we only recently acquired those assets and have undertaken to integrate their assets into our operations at varying levels. Over the past 30 months, we have made significant changes to our product mix and service mix, our growth strategies, our sales and marketing plans, and other operational matters. As a result, it may be difficult to evaluate an investment in our company. Given our recent investment in technology, we cannot be certain that our business model and future operating performance will yield the results that we intend. In addition, the competitive and rapidly changing nature of the e-Learning and Web conferencing markets makes it difficult for us to predict future results. Our business strategy may be unsuccessful and we may be unable to address the risks we face. WE FACE RISKS INHERENT IN INTERNET-RELATED BUSINESSES AND MAY BE UNSUCCESSFUL IN ADDRESSING THESE RISKS. We face risks frequently encountered by early-stage companies in new and rapidly evolving markets such as e-Learning and Web conferencing. We may fail to adequately address these risks and, as a consequence, our business may suffer. To address these risks among others, we must successfully introduce and attract new customers to our products and services; successfully implement our sales and marketing strategy to generate sufficient sales and revenues to achieve or sustain operations; foster existing relationships with our existing customers to provide for continued or recurring business and cash flow; and, successfully address and establish new products and technologies as new markets develop. As an early-stage company, we may not be able to sufficiently access, address and overcome risks inherent in our business strategy. OUR QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS ARE UNCERTAIN AND MAY FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY. Our operating results have varied significantly from quarter to quarter and are likely to continue to fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, many of which we cannot control. Factors that may adversely affect our quarterly operating results include: the size and timing of product orders; the mix of revenue from custom services and software products; the market acceptance of our products and services; our ability to develop and market new products in a timely manner and the market acceptance of these new products; the timing of revenues and expenses relating to our product sales; and, the timing of revenue recognition. Expense levels are based, in part, on expectations as to future revenue and to a large extent are fixed in the short term. To the extent we are unable to predict future revenue accurately, we may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. WE HAVE SIGNIFICANT OPERATING LOSSES, HAVE LIMITED FINANCIAL RESOURCES, AND MAY NOT BECOME PROFITABLE. We have incurred substantial operating losses and have limited financial resources at our disposal. We have and long-term obligations that we will not be able to satisfy without additional debt and/or equity capital and ultimately generating profits and cash flows from our e-Learning and Web conferencing operations. If we are unable to achieve profitability in the near future, we will face increasing demands for capital and liquidity. We may not be successful in raising additional debt or equity capital and may not become profitable in the short term or not at all. As a result, we may not have sufficient financial resources to satisfy our obligations as they come due in the short term. OUR AUDITORS HAVE EXPRESSED SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT AS TO OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN. Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis which assumes that we will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of our assets and the satisfaction of our liabilities and 34 commitments in the normal course of business. We have a significant working capital deficiency, and have historically suffered substantial recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. These factors, among others, and the limited operating history as an e-Learning and Web collaboration company have caused our auditors to conclude in their report that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. Our plans with regard to these factors include continued development, marketing and licensing of our Web Conferencing and e-Learning products and services through both internal growth and acquisition. Although we continue to pursue these plans, there is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining sufficient revenues from our products and services to provide adequate cash flows to sustain operations. Our continuation is dependent on our ability to raise additional equity or debt capital, to increase our e-Learning revenues, to generate positive cash flows from operations and to achieve profitability. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. LISTING QUALIFICATIONS MAY NOT BE MET. The American Stock Exchange's continued listing standards require that the Company maintain stockholder's equity of at least $4.0 million if the Company has losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years. While the Company has sustained losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years, and had less than $4.0 million of stockholder's equity at March 31, 2004, the Company raised approximately $0.9 million in additional equity capital, converted certain other debt to equity and completed an acquisition subsequent to the fiscal year end and therefore has as of the date of this report stockholder's equity in excess of the $4.0 million requirement. If in the future, the Company fails to maintain a sufficient level of stockholder's equity in compliance with those and other listing standards of the American Stock Exchange then the Company would be required to submit a plan to the American Stock Exchange describing how it intended to regain compliance with the requirements. DILUTION TO EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS IS LIKELY TO OCCUR UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES WE HAVE RESERVED FOR FUTURE ISSUANCE. On March 31, 2004, 19,257,304 shares of our common stock were issued, of which 1,432,412 were held in treasury, and 23,449,805 additional shares of our common stock were reserved for issuance. The issuance of these additional shares will reduce the percentage ownership of existing stockholders in the Company. The following shares were reserved for issuance as of March 31, 2004: o Issued and outstanding stock options to purchase common shares totaling 2,282,855; o Issued and outstanding warrants to purchase common shares totaling 7,647,664; o Issued and outstanding warrant to purchase $577,500 of convertible redeemable subordinated notes with detachable warrants for 577,500 common shares, all of which are exercisable for or convertible into an aggregate 1,155,000 common shares; o Issued and outstanding warrant to purchase 15,000 shares of convertible preferred stock with detachable warrants for 75,500 common shares, all of which are exercisable for or convertible into an aggregate 575,000 common shares; o A restricted stock grant to receive shares totaling approximately 450,000; and o Shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible redeemable subordinated notes and preferred stock totaling a potential aggregate of 11,339,286 common shares. The existence of these reserved shares coupled with other factors, such as the relatively small public float, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock and our ability to raise capital through an offering of equity securities. THE LOSS OF THE SERVICES OF OUR SENIOR EXECUTIVES AND KEY PERSONNEL WOULD LIKELY CAUSE OUR BUSINESS TO SUFFER. Our success depends to a significant degree on the performance of our senior management team. The loss of any of these individuals could harm our business. We do not maintain key person life insurance for any officers or key employees other than on the life of James M. Powers, Jr., our Chairman, President and CEO, with that policy providing a death benefit to the Company of $1.0 million. Our success also depends on the ability to attract, integrate, motivate and retain additional highly skilled technical, sales and marketing, and professional services personnel. To the extent we are unable to attract and retain a sufficient number of additional skilled personnel, our business will suffer. 35 OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MAY BECOME SUBJECT TO LEGAL CHALLENGES, UNAUTHORIZED USE OR INFRINGEMENT, ANY OF WHICH COULD DIMINISH THE VALUE OF OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. Our success depends in large part on our proprietary technology. If we fail to successfully enforce our intellectual property rights, the value of these rights, and consequently the value of our products and services to our customers, could diminish substantially. It may be possible for third parties to copy or otherwise obtain and use our intellectual property or trade secrets without our authorization, and it may also be possible for third parties to independently develop substantially equivalent intellectual property. Currently, we do not have patent protection in place related to our products and services. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect trade secrets or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. While we have not received any notice of any claim of infringement of any of our intellectual property, from time to time we may receive notice of claims of infringement of other parties' proprietary rights. Such claims could result in costly litigation and could divert management and technical resources. These types of claims could also delay product shipment or require us to develop non-infringing technology or enter into royalty or licensing agreements, which agreements, if required, may not be available on reasonable terms, or at all. COMPETITION IN THE WEB CONFERENCING SERVICES MARKET IS INTENSE AND WE MAY BE UNABLE TO COMPETE SUCCESSFULLY, PARTICULARLY AS A RESULT OF RECENT ANNOUNCEMENTS FROM LARGE SOFTWARE COMPANIES. The market for Web conferencing services is relatively new, rapidly evolving and intensely competitive. Competition in our market will continue to intensify and may force us to reduce our prices, or cause us to experience reduced sales and margins, loss of market share and reduced acceptance of our services. Many of our competitors have larger and more established customer bases, longer operating histories, greater name recognition, broader service offerings, more employees and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, public relations and distribution resources than we do. We expect that we will face new competition as others enter our market to develop Web conferencing services. These current and future competitors may also offer or develop products or services that perform better than ours. In addition, acquisitions or strategic partnerships involving our current and potential competitors could harm us in a number of ways. FUTURE REGULATIONS COULD BE ENACTED THAT EITHER DIRECTLY RESTRICT OUR BUSINESS OR INDIRECTLY IMPACT OUR BUSINESS BY LIMITING THE GROWTH OF INTERNET-BASED BUSINESS AND SERVICES. As commercial use of the Internet increases, federal, state and foreign agencies could enact laws or adopt regulations covering issues such as user privacy, content and taxation of products and services. If enacted, such laws or regulations could limit the market for our products and services. Although they might not apply to our business directly, we expect that laws or rules regulating personal and consumer information could indirectly affect our business. It is possible that such legislation or regulation could expose companies involved in providing Internet-based services to liability, which could limit the growth of Web use generally and thereby reduce demand for our products and services. Such legislation or regulation could dampen the growth in Web usage and decrease its acceptance as a medium of communications and commerce. WE DEPEND LARGELY ON ONE-TIME SALES TO GROW REVENUES. A high percentage of our revenue is attributable to one-time purchases by our customers rather than long term recurring ASP type contracts. As a result, our inability to continue to obtain new agreements and sales may result in lower than expected revenue, and therefore, harm our ability to achieve or sustain operations or profitability on a consistent basis, which could also cause our stock price to decline. Further, because we face competition from larger better-capitalized companies, we could face increased downward pricing pressure that could cause a decrease in our gross margins. OUR OPERATING RESULTS MAY SUFFER IF WE FAIL TO DEVELOP AND FOSTER OUR VALUE ADDED RESELLER OR DISTRIBUTION RELATIONSHIPS. We have an existing channel and distribution network that provides growing revenues and contributes to our high margin software sales. These distribution partners are not obligated to distribute our services at any particular minimum level. As a result, we cannot accurately predict the amount of revenue we will derive from our distribution partners in the future. The 36 inability of our distribution partners to sell our products to their customers and increase their distribution of our products could result in significant reductions in our revenue, and therefore, harm our ability to achieve or sustain profitability on a consistent basis. SALES IN FOREIGN JURISDICTIONS BY US AND OUR INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTOR NETWORK MAY CAUSE COSTS THAT ARE NOT ANTICIPATED. We continue to expand internationally through our value added reseller network and OEM partners. We have limited experience in international operations and may not be able to compete effectively in international markets. We face certain risks inherent in conducting business internationally, such as: o our inability to establish and maintain effective distribution channels and partners; o the varying technology standards from country to country; o our inability to effectively protect our intellectual property rights or the code to our software; o our inexperience with inconsistent regulations and unexpected changes in regulatory requirements in foreign jurisdictions; o language and cultural differences; o fluctuations in currency exchange rates; o our inability to effectively collect accounts receivable; or o our inability to manage sales and other taxes imposed by foreign jurisdictions. THE GROWTH OF OUR BUSINESS SUBSTANTIALLY DEPENDS ON OUR ABILITY TO SUCCESSFULLY DEVELOP AND INTRODUCE NEW SERVICES AND FEATURES IN A TIMELY MANNER. We acquired our Web collaboration, Web conferencing and virtual classroom software in November of 2002. With our focus upon that product suite our growth depends on our ability to continue to develop new features, products and services around the iLinc suite and line of products. We may not successfully identify, develop and market new products and features in a timely and cost-effective manner. If we fail to develop and maintain market acceptance of our existing and new products to offset our continuing development costs, then our net losses will increase and we may not be able to achieve or sustain profitability on a consistent basis. IF WE FAIL TO OFFER COMPETITIVE PRICING, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN CUSTOMERS. Because the Web conferencing market is relatively new and still evolving, the prices for these services are subject to rapid and frequent changes. In many cases, businesses provide their services at significantly reduced rates, for free or on a trial basis in order to win customers. Due to competitive factors and the rapidly changing marketplace, we may be required to significantly reduce our pricing structure, which would negatively affect our revenue, margins and our ability to achieve or sustain profitability on a consistent basis. We have an existing channel and distribution network that provides growing revenues and contributes to our high margin software sales. These distribution partners are not obligated to distribute our services at any particular minimum level. As a result, we cannot accurately predict the amount of revenue we will derive from our distribution partners in the future. Our inability of our distribution partners to sell our products to their customers and increase their distribution of our products could result in significant reductions in our revenue, and therefore, harm our ability to achieve or sustain profitability on a consistent basis. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK The following discusses our exposure to market risk related to changes in interest rates, equity prices and foreign currency exchange rates. Market risk generally represents the risk of loss that may result from the potential change in the value of a financial instrument as a result of fluctuations in interest rates and market prices. We have not traded or otherwise bought and sold derivatives nor do we expect to in the future. We also do not invest in market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes. We provide our products and services to customers in the United States, Europe and elsewhere throughout the world. Sales are predominately made in U.S. Dollars, however, we have sold products that were payable in Euros and Canadian Dollars. A strengthening of the U.S. Dollar could make our products and services less competitive in foreign markets. 37 The primary objective of the Company's investment activity is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, the Company maintains its portfolio of cash equivalents in a variety of money market funds. As of March 31, 2004, the carrying value of our outstanding convertible redeemable subordinated notes was approximately $6.4 million at fixed interest rates of 8% to 12%. In certain circumstances, we may redeem this long-term debt. Our other components of indebtedness bear fixed interest rates of 6% to 10%. Because the interest rates on these instruments are fixed, a hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition, revenues or operations. Increases in interest rates could, however, increase the interest expense associated with future borrowings, if any. We do not hedge against interest rate increases. 38 ITEM 8.

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of iLinc Communications, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of March 31, 2004 and 2003, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a significant working capital deficiency and has suffered substantial recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 2. The long-term continuation of the Company is dependent on the Company's ability to raise additional equity or debt capital, to increase its revenues, to generate positive cash flows from operations and to achieve profitability. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ BDO Seidman, LLP Costa Mesa, California May 21, 2004, except for Note 18, as to which the date is June 21, 2004 40 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To The Board of Directors and Shareholders of iLinc Communications, Inc. and Subsidiaries In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of iLinc Communications, Inc. and its Subsidiaries at March 31, 2002 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, iLinc Communications, Inc. ("iLinc" or the "Company") is a leading provider of Web conferencing, audio conferencing and collaboration software and services. The Company's software has become well recognized for providing industry-leading software with one of the most robust set of features and functionality. With over 15 years of combined e-Learning expertise, iLinc provides proven solutions to corporate, government, and education clients alike. As a comprehensive provider of e-Learning software and services, iLinc's products and services are offered either as an integrated suite or sold separately. The Company began operations in March of 1998. Its formation included the simultaneous rollup of fifty private businesses and an initial public offering. The Company's initial goals included providing training enhancement services over the Internet using a browser based system. In 2002, the Company shifted and refined its focus away from its legacy business, settling on its current focus on Web conferencing and audio conferencing and in doing so ultimately changed its name to iLinc Communications, Inc. in February 2004. 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis which assumes that it will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of its assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has a significant working capital deficiency, and has historically suffered substantial recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. These matters, among others, including those discussed above and the limited operating history as Web conferencing and e-Learning company, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plan with regard to these matters include continued development, marketing and licensing of its Web conferencing, audio conferencing and e-Learning products and services through both internal growth and acquisition. Although management continues to pursue these plans, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining sufficient revenues from its products and services to provide adequate cash flows to sustain operations. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the outcome of this uncertainty. During the year ended March 31, 2004, the Company discontinued its dental practice management services segment. Accordingly, the Company has reflected these operations as discontinued and has restated the prior year consolidated financial statements to conform to such presentation. Discontinued operations is discussed further in Note 3. 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS Effective January 1, 2004, the Company discontinued its dental practice management services. In accordance with SFAS 144 "ACCOUNTING FOR IMPAIRMENT ON DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS", the Company has restated its historical results to reflect its dental practice management service business segment as a discontinued operation. 46 A summary of the results from discontinued operations for the years ended March 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 are as follows: FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2004 2003 2002 ------------ ------------ ------------ (IN THOUSANDS) Net revenue .................................. $ 128 $ 3,129 $ 6,582 Operating expenses ...........................

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The more significant areas requiring use of estimates relate to revenue recognition, accounts receivable and notes receivable valuation reserves, realizability of intangible assets, realizability of deferred income tax assets, and the evaluation of contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of such estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. REVENUE RECOGNITION Our revenues are generally classified into two main categories - license revenue and service and maintenance revenue. License revenue is generated from the sale of our iLinc suite of Web conferencing software on a purchase-model (perpetual license basis) and from the sale of our off-the-shelf courseware, primarily the online Bridge (Mini-MBA) program. The service revenue 47 aspect of our Service and Maintenance revenue is primarily generated from the sale of our iLinc Web conferencing software on a periodic license basis (i.e., ASP or per minute), as well as, all service contracts that might include hosting, and training services. Service and Maintenance revenue also includes all revenue arising from maintenance and upgrade contracts that are sold with our iLinc Web conferencing software purchases. Included in our Service and Maintenance revenue are the revenues associated with our custom content development services. Sales of Software Licenses We earn our revenues from the sale of software licenses and service and maintenance agreements related to those software license sales. We offer our software and services in one of two forms, the first being a purchase model that permits the purchase of a perpetual license, and the second being an ASP or per minute model that permits the purchase of a periodic term license. The iLinc suite of Web conferencing products is sold utilizing both the purchase model and the ASP model with separate revenue recognition policies applicable to each model. With each sale of our products and services, we execute contracts that govern the terms and conditions of each software license sale, hosting agreement, maintenance and support agreement and other services arrangements. In connection with the Company's sales of software licenses, the Company adopted Statement of Position ("SOP") 97-2 as issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. In accordance with SOP 97-2, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of software licenses if all of the following conditions are met: First, there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement with the customer; Second, the product has been delivered to the customer; Third, the amount of the fees to be paid by the customer is fixed or determinable; and, Fourth, collection of the fee is probable. Each of these factors, particularly the determination of whether a fee is fixed and determinable and the collectability of the resulting receivable, requires the application of the judgment and the estimates of management. Therefore, significant management judgment is utilized and estimates must be made in connection with the revenue we recognize in any accounting period. We analyze various factors, including a review of the nature of the license or product sold, the terms of specific transaction, the vendor specific objective evidence of the elements required by SOP 97-2, any contingencies that may be present, our historical experience with like transactions or with like products, the creditworthiness of the customer, and other current market and economic conditions. Changes in our judgment based upon these factors and others could impact the timing and amount of revenue that we recognize, and ultimately the results of operations and our financial condition. Therefore, the recognition of revenue is a key component of our results of operations. At the time of the sale of our perpetual software license, we assess whether the fee associated with the transaction is fixed or determinable based on the payment terms associated with the transaction before recording immediate revenue recognition, assuming all other elements of revenue recognition are present. Billings to our customers are generally due within 30 to 90 days, with payment terms up to 120 days available to certain credit worthy customers. We believe that we will have sufficient history of collecting all amounts within these normal payment terms and to conclude that the fee is fixed or determinable at the time of the perpetual license sale. Under certain circumstances, we have offered payment terms greater than 120 days and up to as much as twelve months to certain customers, for sales involving our Web conferencing perpetual license products where license revenue would normally be recognized upon delivery of the product. However, we currently do not believe that we have sufficient history of selling the iLinc Suite of products under perpetual license arrangements with extended payment terms exceeding 120 days, and therefore will record revenue when the payments from the customer are due, rather than immediately upon delivery of the product and collection is probable, assuming all other elements of revenue recognition are present. Beginning in fiscal 2004, we began offering payment terms of 180 days and anticipate continuing using those 180-day payment terms related to sales of our perpetual license products. While we do not at this time believe that we have sufficient history of selling perpetual licenses with 180-day payment terms to determine that such fees are fixed and determinable, we do expect to consider those 180-day payment terms to be normal payment terms for certain well capitalized customers when we have such a history, and accordingly, at that time will include those sales in revenue when the perpetual license sale occurs (again assuming all other aspects of revenue recognition are present). We consider all arrangements with payment terms longer than 180 days not to be fixed or determinable and for arrangements involving the extended payment terms exceeding 180 days, revenue recognition occurs when payments are due and collection is probable, assuming all other elements of revenue recognition are present. 48 In addition, in assessing whether collection is probable or not for a given transaction, and therefore whether we should recognize the revenue, we make estimates regarding the creditworthiness of the customer. Initial creditworthiness is assessed through internal credit check processes, such as credit applications or third party reporting agencies. Creditworthiness for transactions to existing customers primarily relies upon a review of their prior payment history. We do not request collateral or other security from our customers, but access to the software may be prohibited if a customer fails to make the payments required. If we determine that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, we defer the fee and recognize revenue at the time collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon the receipt of payment or other change in circumstance. Sales of Concurrent Licenses (ASP) and Per Minute Basis Historically, a majority of our license revenue has been generated under the purchase model with revenue recognized based on a one-time sale of a perpetual license. In addition to that purchase model, we also offer a more flexible monthly, fixed-fee subscription pricing model (ASP Model) and a per-minute usage based model. Under our subscription or ASP model, a customer may subscribe to a certain number of concurrent connections or seats for a fixed period, often a year. Under this ASP method, we recognize the revenue associated with these monthly, fixed-fee subscription arrangements each month on a straight line basis over the term of the agreement. Other customers choose to avoid annual commitments and instead use our Web conferencing and audio conferencing products and services based upon a per minute or usage-based pricing model. Per minute customers may also include those customers on an ASP model that incur overage fees for usage in excess of the permitted number of seats or minutes in excess of the minimum commitment. The per minute fees that include overage fees are charged at the end of each month and recorded as revenue at the end of each month as the services are provided. Customers with contractually established minimum per minute fees are assessed the greater of the established minimum or the actual usage at the end of each month. Customers wishing to avoid monthly commitments may use the e-commerce portion of our web site that permits the use our Web conferencing services on a pay-per-use basis, with no monthly minimum, purchasing the services and paying for those services online by credit card. Sales of Maintenance, Hosting and other Related Services The Company offers with each sale of its software products a software maintenance, upgrade and support arrangement. These contracts may be elements in a multiple-element arrangement or may be sold in a stand-alone basis. Revenues from maintenance and support services are recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the term that the maintenance service is provided. Maintenance contracts typically provide for 12 month terms with maintenance contracts available up to 36 months. Revenues from consulting, training and education services are recognized either as the services are performed, ratably over a subscription period, or upon completing a project milestone if defined in the agreement. These consulting, training and education services, are not considered essential to the functionality of our products as these services do not alter the product capabilities, do not require specialized skills, and are often performed by the customer or our VAR's customers without access to those services. Implementation, consulting, training, translation, and other event type services may also be sold in conjunction with the sale of our software products. Those services are generally recognized as the services are performed or if earlier when all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. Although the Company may provide implementation, training and consulting services on a time and materials basis, a significant portion of these services have been provided on a fixed-fee basis. Should the sale of our software involve an arrangement with multiple elements (for example, the sale of a software license along with the sale of maintenance and support to be delivered over the contract period), we allocate revenue to each component of the arrangement using the residual value method based on the fair value of the undelivered elements. We defer revenue from the arrangement equivalent to the fair value of the undelivered elements and recognize the remaining amount at the time of the delivery of the product or when all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. Fair values for the ongoing maintenance and support obligations are based upon separate sales of renewals of maintenance contracts. Fair value of services, such as training or consulting, is based upon separate sales of these services to other customers. Thus, these types of arrangements require us to make judgments about the fair value of undelivered arrangements. 49 Sales of Custom Content Development Services A component of our service and maintenance revenue is derived from custom content development services. The sale of custom content development services often involves the execution of a master service agreement and corresponding work orders describing the deliverable due, the costs involved, the project milestones and the payments required. For contracts and revenues related exclusively to custom content development services, the Company recognizes revenue and profit as work progresses on custom content service contracts using the percentage-of-completion method. This method relies on estimates of total expected contract revenue and costs as each job progresses throughout the relevant contract period. The Company follows this method since reasonably dependable estimates of the costs applicable to various stages of a custom content service contract can be made. Recognized revenues and profit are subject to revisions as the custom content service contract progresses to completion. Revisions in profit estimates are charged to income in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known. Customers sometimes request modifications to projects in progress which may result in significant revisions to cost estimates and profit recognition, and the Company may not be successful in negotiating additional payments related to the changes in scope of requested services. Should this arise, the provision for any estimated losses on uncompleted custom content service contracts are made in the period in which such losses become evident. There were no such losses at March 31, 2004 for any custom content development services. For arrangements requiring customer acceptance, revenue is deferred until the earlier of the end of the acceptance period or until written notice of acceptance is received from the customer. Sales by VAR's and Agents The Company has engaged organizations within the United States of America and in twelve other countries that market and sell its products and services through their sales distribution channels that are value added resellers (VAR's). The VAR's primarily sell, on a non-exclusive basis, our iLinc suite of Web conferencing products and predominately sell purchase-model perpetual licenses for installation and hosting by the VAR's customer. The Company's VAR contracts have terms of one to two years and are automatically renewed for an additional like term unless either party terminates the agreement for breach or other financial reasons. Each VAR purchases the product from the Company and resells the product to its customers. Under those VAR agreements, the Company records only the amount paid by the VAR as revenue and recognizes revenue when all revenue recognition criteria have been met. The Company also engages organizations that act as mere agents or distributors of its products ("Agents"), without title passing to the Agent and with the Agent only receiving a commission on the consummation of the sale to our customer. The Company records revenue on sales by Agents on a gross basis before commissions due to the Agent and only when all revenue recognition criteria are met as would be with a sale by the Company directly to a customer not involving an agent. Sales Reserves The sales reserve is an estimate for losses on receivables resulting from customer credits, cancellations and terminations and is recorded, if at all, as a reduction in revenue at the time of the sale. Increases to sales reserve are charged to revenue, reducing the revenue otherwise reportable. The sales reserve estimate is based on an analysis of the historical rate of credits, cancellations and terminations. The accuracy of the estimate is dependent on the rate of future credits, cancellations and terminations being consistent with the historical rate. If the rate of actual credits, cancellations and terminations is different than the historical rate, revenue would be different from what was reported. As of March 31, 2004, we did not believe that an accrual for sales reserves was appropriate, but continue to assess the adequacy of the sales reserve account balance on a quarterly basis. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts We record an allowance for doubtful accounts to provide for losses on accounts receivable due to customer credit risk. Increases to the allowance for doubtful accounts are charged to general and administrative expense as bad debt expense. Losses on accounts receivable due to financial distress or failure of the customer are charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance estimate is based on an analysis of the historical rate of credit losses. The accuracy of the estimate is dependent on the future rate of credit losses being consistent with the historical rate. If the rate of future credit losses is greater than the historical rate, then the allowance for doubtful accounts may not be sufficient to provide for actual credit losses. 50 The allowance for doubtful accounts for iLinc Web collaboration product sales is $24,000 and $172,000, respectively, as of March 31, 2004 and 2003 and is based on our historical collection experience. Any adjustments to these accounts are reflected in the income statement for the current period, as an adjustment to revenue in the case of the sales reserve and as a general and administrative expense in the case of the allowance for doubtful accounts. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS The Company accounts for software development costs in accordance with SFAS No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed," whereby costs for the development of new software products and substantial enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at which time any additional costs are capitalized. Technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Costs of maintenance and customer support are charged to expense when related revenue is recognized or when those costs are incurred, whichever occurs first. Software development costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility have not been significant to date, and all software development costs have been charged to research and development expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all highly liquid debt investments with remaining maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. The Company's accounts at these institutions may, at times, exceed the federally insured limits. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the various classes of depreciable assets. During fiscal 2003, the Company changed the estimated useful life on certain classes of its property and equipment to more accurately reflect the change in the Company's business. The following classes of depreciable assets were changed as follows: Furniture & Fixtures from 7 years to 5 years Equipment from 7 years to 5 years Computer Equipment from 5 years to 3 years Leasehold improvements shorter of 5 years or lease term Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense whereas renewals and major replacements are capitalized. Gains and losses from dispositions are included in operations. INTANGIBLE ASSETS On April 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" and as a result, the Company's goodwill is no longer amortized. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill be tested annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment. Upon initial application of SFAS No. 142, the Company determined there was no impairment of goodwill. The Company has established the date of March 31 on which to conduct its annual impairment test. Had the Company adopted SFAS No. 142 on April 1, 2001, net income would have increased by $91,000 for the year ended March 31, 2002 due to the non-amortization of goodwill. The adoption of this statement would have decreased the basic and diluted loss per share from continuing operations to $0.08 from $0.09 for the year ended March 31, 2002. The Company has made acquisitions of companies having operations or technology in areas within its strategic focus and has recorded goodwill and other intangible assets associated with the acquisitions (see Note 9). Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of the underlying acquired operations could result in losses or an inability to recover the carrying value of the goodwill and other intangible assets thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge in the future. As of March 31, 2004, the Company, based on a third party full scope valuation, has identified no such impairment. 51 Debt issuance costs, which are included in other intangible assets, are amortized using the effective interest rate method over the ten-year term of the related debt obligations. At March 31, 2004 and 2003, debt issuance costs, net of accumulated amortization, were $726,000 and $771,000, respectively. Amortization of debt issuance costs have been reflected in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and total $104,000, $138,000, and $99,000 for the years ended March 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively. These intangibles are amortized over their expected lives of 120 months. Other intangibles primarily consist of the Quisic and LearnLinc purchase consideration (see Note 9), which was allocated to purchased software and customer relationship intangibles (see Note 7). Such other intangibles are amortized over their expected benefit period of twenty-four to thirty-six months. LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Company reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when anticipated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount. The Company recorded an impairment charge totaling $390,000 for the year ended March 31, 2003, which is included in net income from discontinued operations for fiscal 2003. No such impairment charges were recorded for the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2002. CUSTOMER CONCENTRATIONS Accounts receivable represent license agreements entered into and services rendered by the Company with its customers. The Company performs periodic credit reports before recognizing sales to certain customers, but does not receive collateral related to the receivables. Revenues included one customer with transactions approximating 15% and 21% of net revenues for the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Revenues from international customers for the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 approximated $975,000 and $107,000, respectively. Accounts receivable balances for one customer approximated 24% as a percentage of the total balance outstanding at March 31, 2004 and for two customers approximated 13% each as a percentage of the total balance outstanding at March 31, 2003. INCOME TAXES The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under this method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted marginal tax rates currently in effect when the differences reverse. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of its net deferred tax assets because it has concluded that it is more likely than not that it will not be realized due to continuing operating losses. The Company has considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance. In the event the Company was to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase net income in the period such a determination was made. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - TRANSITION AND DISCLOSURE - AN AMENDMENT TO SFAS NO. 123." SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method on accounting for stock-based employee compensation. The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 and accordingly the implementation of SFAS No. 148 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. 52 The fair value for options granted was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for the years ended March 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002: 2004 2003 2002 ---- ---- ---- Risk free interest rate 3.73-4.40% 3.07-4.32% 3.87% Dividend yield 0% 0% 0% Volatility factors of the expected market price of the Company's common stock 70-139% 41% 75% Weighted-average expected life of Options 5-9 years 5-9 years 5-9 years For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. The Company's pro forma information follows (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS): 2004 2003 2002 ------------- ------------- ------------- Net Income (loss) available to common shareholders, as reported .......... $ (2,340) $ (3,756) $ 5,805 Plus: Stock-based employee compensation expense included in reported net income (loss) .................... -- -- -- Less: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined using fair value based method ............... (168) (270) (286) ------------- ------------- ------------- Pro forma net income (loss) .......... $ (2,508) $ (4,026) $ 5,519 ============= ============= ============= Earnings (loss) per share Basic and Diluted - as reported ...... $ (0.14) $ (0.24) $ 0.49 ============= ============= ============= Basic and Diluted - pro forma ........ $ (0.15) $ (0.26) $ 0.46 ============= ============= ============= EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share are computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents outstanding during each period. Outstanding options and warrants to purchase 9,930,519, 8,498,617, and 1,945,602 shares of Common Stock at exercise prices above the market value of Common Stock were excluded from the calculation of earnings per share for the years ended March 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, because their effect would have been antidilutive. Furthermore, a restricted stock grant of 450,000 shares (see Note 15) and 11,339,286 (2004) and 5,900,777 (2003) shares into which preferred stock (Note 11) and debt (Note 10) are convertible have been excluded from the 2004 and 2003 earnings per share calculation because their effect would have been antidilutive. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables and accounts payable approximate fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The carrying amounts of the Company's long-term borrowings and notes receivables (presented in assets both from continuing and discontinued operations) as of March 31, 2004 and 2003, approximate their fair value based on the Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar type of borrowing arrangements. 53 GUARANTEES AND INDEMNIFICATIONS In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 45 "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others -- an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and rescission of FIN 34." The following is a summary of the Company's agreements that the Company has determined are within the scope of FIN No. 45: The Company provides a 90-day warranty for certain of its products. Historically, the Company's performance under the warranty has been minimal, and as such, no warranty accrual has been provided for in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Under its bylaws, the Company has agreed to indemnify its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences arising as a result of the officer's or director's serving in such capacity. The term of the indemnification period is for the officer's or director's lifetime. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited. However, the Company has a director and officer liability insurance policy that limits its exposure and enables it to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. As a result of its insurance policy coverage, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal and has no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of March 31, 2004. The Company enters into indemnification provisions under (i) its agreements with other companies in its ordinary course of business, typically with business partners, contractors, and customers, landlords and (ii) its agreements with investors. Under these provisions the Company generally indemnifies and hold harmless the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party as a result of the Company's activities or, in some cases, as a result of the indemnified party's activities under the agreement. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is unlimited. The Company has not incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. As a result, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these agreements is minimal. Accordingly, the Company has no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of March 31, 2004. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "ACCOUNTING FOR ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS", which requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred with the associated asset retirement costs being capitalized as a part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. SFAS No. 143 also includes disclosure requirements that provide a description of asset retirement obligations and reconciliation of changes in the components of those obligations. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The implementation of SFAS No. 143 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS," which addresses accounting and financial reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This standard was effective for the Company's consolidated financial statements beginning January 1, 2002. The implementation of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "RESCISSION OF FASB STATEMENTS NO. 4, 44, AND 64, AMENDMENT OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 13, AND TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS." SFAS No. 145 rescinded three previously issued statements and amended SFAS No. 13, "ACCOUNTING FOR LEASES." The statement provides reporting standards for debt extinguishments and provides accounting standards for certain lease modifications that have economic effects similar to sale-leaseback transactions. The statement is effective for certain lease transactions occurring after May 15, 2002 and all other provisions of the statement shall be effective for fiscal years ending after May 15, 2002. The implementation of SFAS No. 145 will effect the classification of extraordinary items presented in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Such gains will no longer be considered extraordinary in nature and will be reclassified to operations. In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "ACCOUNTING FOR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES," which updates accounting and reporting standards for personnel and operational restructurings. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 146 for exit, disposal or other restructuring activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application 54 encouraged. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In April 2003, SFAS No. 149, "AMENDMENT OF STATEMENT 133 ON DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES" was issued. This statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. Adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In May 2003, SFAS No. 150, "ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH CHARACTERISTICS OF BOTH LIABILITIES AND EQUITY" was issued. This statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. On December 18, 2003 the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, REVENUE RECOGNITION ("SAB 104"), which supersedes SAB 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. SAB 104's primary purpose is to rescind accounting guidance contained in SAB 101 related to multiple element revenue arrangements, which was superseded as a result of the issuance of EITF 00-21, "Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables." The adoption of SAB 104 did not have a material impact the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In December 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46R") (revised December 2003), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51" ("ARB 51"), which addresses how a business enterprise should evaluate whether it has a controlling interest in an entity though means other than voting rights and accordingly should consolidate the entity. FIN 46R replaces FASB Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), which was issued in January 2003. Before concluding that it is appropriate to apply ARB 51 voting interest consolidation model to an entity, an enterprise must first determine that the entity is not a variable interest entity (VIE). As of the effective date of FIN 46R, an enterprise must evaluate its involvement with all entities or legal structures created before February 1, 2003, to determine whether consolidation requirements of FIN 46R apply to those entities. There is no grandfathering of existing entities. Public companies must apply either FIN 46 or FIN 46R immediately to entities created after December 15, 2003 and no later than the end of the first reporting period that ends after March 15, 2004 to entities considered to be special purpose entities.. The adoption of FIN 46R did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS LEARNING-EDGE, INC. On October 1, 2001, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Learning-Edge, Inc.; an Arizona based private e-learning company. The Company issued 1,950,000 common shares and $1.1 million of debt under the terms of the acquisition agreement (see further discussion at Note 10). The Company also assumed approximately $2.9 million of Learning-Edge debt as part of this acquisition. The operating results of Learning-Edge are included with the Company's as of October 1, 2001. The purchase price has been calculated as follows: LEARNING-EDGE -------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Issuance of iLinc common stock valued at $0.51 per share ......................................... $ 995 Issuance of iLinc debt ............................... 1,102 Acquisition costs .................................... 200 --------- Net purchase price, including acquisition costs ... 2,297 Assumed liabilities .................................. 2,946 --------- Total purchase price .............................. $ 5,243 ========= The total purchase price has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values in accordance with SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations".

On January 15, 2002, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of ThoughtWare Technologies, Inc.; a Tennessee based private company. The Company issued 1,550,000 common shares under the terms of the acquisition agreement. The Company also assumed approximately $1.5 million of ThoughtWare debt as part of this acquisition. The operating results of ThoughtWare are included with the Company's as of January 1, 2002. The purchase price has been calculated as follows: THOUGHTWARE ----------- (IN THOUSANDS) Issuance of iLinc common stock valued at $1.39 per share ......................................... $ 2,155 Acquisition costs .................................... 200 ----------- Net purchase price, including acquisition costs ... 2,355 Assumed liabilities .................................. 1,464 ----------- Total purchase price .............................. $ 3,819 =========== The total purchase price has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values in accordance with SFAS No. 141. The excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been assigned to goodwill. Upon completion of an assessment of ThoughtWare's operations, no separately identifiable intangible assets were found to exist.

(2,153) ----------- $ -- =========== 59 On March 29, 2003, the Company settled various disputes it had with the former shareholders of ThoughtWare Technologies, Inc. The settlement resulted in 365,000 of the shares issued in connection with the acquisition being returned to the Company. The Company valued the shares using the share price at the date of acquisition and recorded the returned shares as a $507,000 decrease to shareholders' equity and goodwill. QUISIC CORPORATION On June 14, 2002, the Company acquired certain assets of Quisic Corporation ("Quisic"), a California based private Company in exchange for 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock and the assumption of $223,000 of liabilities, together with an additional 500,000 shares of the Company common stock that were placed into escrow to secure a revenue performance requirement. That revenue performance target was not achieved and the Company demanded the return of the shares of common stock. The shareholders of Quisic do not dispute the right of the Company to obtain those shares. However, since the claims of the plaintiffs in the Kepner-Tregoe litigation matter assert potential rights to those shares, the shares were instead tendered to the registry of the trial court pending resolution of the party's respective claims (Note 14). Those 500,000 shares are not counted as shares outstanding nor as treasury shares as the performance contingency associated with those shares was not met and accordingly are not reflected in earnings per share. The operating results of Quisic have been included in the consolidated operations of the Company commencing June 17, 2002. The purchase agreement requires that the Company pay certain contingent compensation to the seller if during the 5-year period following the closing certain sales to PBS and others occur. Through December 31, 2003, the Company had collected funds subject to this contingent provision, which resulted in required contingent payments totaling $300,000. On December 31, 2003, the seller agreed to convert the entire amount then due instead into 333,333 common shares our common stock at the fair market price of $0.90 per share. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company had invoiced for but not received additional funds subject to this contingent provision, which resulted in accrued contingent payments totaling $50,000 due at March 31, 2004 (Note 8). The purchase price has been calculated as follows: QUISIC ----------- (IN THOUSANDS) Issuance of iLinc common stock valued at $0.92 per share .......................... $ 1,840 Acquisition costs .................................... 100 ----------- Net purchase price, including acquisition costs ... 1,940 Assumed liabilities .................................. 223 ----------- Total purchase price .............................. $ 2,163 =========== The total purchase price has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values in accordance with SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations".

In addition, the Company has agreed to pay a royalty of 20% for all cash revenues collected from the sale or license of LearnLinc software over a three-year period. The first $600,000 of sales are not subject to the royalty. The maximum amount due under the Royalty Agreement is $5,000,000. From the date of acquisition through March 31, 2004, the Company has collected $2.4 million in cash from the sale or license of iLinc software. The Company accounts for any such amounts to be paid as additional purchase consideration in accordance with EITF No. 95-8 at the time related revenues are recognized. The Company has accrued LearnLinc royalties totaling $367,000 during fiscal year 2004. The operating results of Mentergy have been included in the consolidated operations of the Company commencing November 4, 2002. The purchase price has been calculated as follows: MENTERGY ------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Issuance of debt and payment of cash ................ $ 500 Acquisition costs ................................... 60 ------------- Net purchase price, including acquisition costs .. 560 Assumed liabilities ................................. 462 ------------- Total purchase price ............................. $ 1,022 ============= The total purchase price has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values in accordance with SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations".

(1,078) (1,019) ------------ ------------ Long-term debt, net of current portion ....... $ 4,444 $ 5,863 ============ ============ In February of 2004, the Company completed a private placement offering raising capital of $500,000 that was used for general corporate purposes. Under the terms of the offering, the Company issued unsecured subordinated convertible notes that have a term of 24 months (subject to adjustment in certain events), and the notes are subordinated to any present or future senior indebtedness. The notes bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum for the first twelve months and then 10% for the second twelve months (subject to a retroactive adjustment to 15% if the underlying shares into which the notes are convertible have not been registered by July 31, 2004) and require quarterly payments of interest only, with the principal due at maturity on February 12, 2006. The holders of the notes may convert the outstanding principal into shares of the Company's common stock at the fixed price of $0.70 per share (subject to adjustments for dilution, as defined). At the issue date, the Company calculated a beneficial conversion feature of the notes to be $214,286, which is being amortized as interest expense over the 2-year life of the debt. The holders of the notes retain certain demand and piggy-back registration rights. Subsequent to March 31, 2004, holders with a principal balance totaling $500,000 converted their notes into 714,285 common shares of the Company. The underlying common stock issued upon conversion of the notes have been registered with the SEC and may be sold pursuant to a resale prospectus dated May 24, 2004. In connection with the acquisition of certain assets from Mentergy, Inc. (and its wholly owned subsidiary LearnLinc Corporation), the Company issued among other consideration a secured promissory note with a principal balance of $250,000 that was due on December 13, 2003 (the "Mentergy Note"). By agreement with Mentergy and its assignees, the Company paid $50,000 in principal amount on the note during December of 2003. The remaining balance of $200,000 was paid in full in February 2004, and Mentergy has released any security interests they had in the Company's assets. In March 2002, the Company completed a private placement offering (the "Convertible Note Offering") raising capital of $5,775,000 that was used to extinguish an existing line of credit. Under the terms of the Convertible Note Offering, the Company issued unsecured subordinated convertible notes (the "Convertible Notes"). The Convertible Notes bear interest at the rate of 12% per annum and require quarterly interest payments, with the principal due at maturity on March 29, 2012. The holders of the Convertible Note may convert the principal into shares of the Company's common stock at the fixed price of $1.00 per share. The Company may force redemption by conversion of the principal into common stock at the fixed conversion price, if at any time the 20 trading day average closing price of the Company's common stock exceeds $3.00 per share. The notes are subordinated to any present or future senior indebtedness. The placement agent received a commission of $577,500 plus $173,250 as a non-accountable expense reimbursement and received a warrant to purchase units on the same basis as other investors representing ten percent of the gross proceeds at a price of 110% of that paid by investors. As a part of the Convertible Note Offering, the Company also issued warrants to purchase 5,775,000 shares of the Company's common stock for an exercise price of $3.00 per share. The Company may force redemption of the warrants if at any time the 62 20 trading day average closing price of the Company's common stock exceeds $5.50 per share, and the warrants expire on March 29, 2005. The fair value of the warrants was estimated using a Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: contractual and expected life of three years, volatility of 75%, dividend yield of 0%, and a risk-free rate of 3.87%. A discount to the Convertible Notes of $1,132,000 was recorded using this value, which is being amortized to interest expense over the ten (10) year term of the Convertible Notes. As the carrying value of the notes is less than the conversion value, a beneficial conversion feature of $1,132,000 was calculated and recorded as an additional discount to the notes and is being amortized to interest expense over the ten (10) year term of the Convertible Notes. Upon conversion, any remaining discount associated with the beneficial conversion feature will be expensed in full. During fiscal 2004, holders with a principal balance totaling $150,000 converted their notes into 150,000 common shares of the Company. The underlying common stock that would be issued upon conversion of these notes and upon exercise of the associated warrants have been registered with the SEC and may be sold pursuant to a resale prospectus dated May 24, 2004. In October 2001, the Company issued $1.1 million of subordinated promissory notes to the shareholders of Learning-Edge, Inc. under the terms of the acquisition agreement (the "Learning-Edge Notes"). The Learning-Edge Notes bear interest at rates ranging from at 7.5% to 9.0% and are due in two equal installments on April 1, 2005 and on October 1, 2005, respectively. The terms of the Learning-Edge Notes provided that if the Company raises additional capital equal to or in excess of $3 million, 25% of the principal of the Learning-Edge Notes is to be repaid. For each $500,000 raised above $3 million, the repayment percentage increases by 15%. If more than $5 million is raised, 100% of the principal of the Learning-Edge Notes is to be repaid. The holders of the Learning-Edge Notes waived these accelerated payment provisions in relation to the Convertible Note Offering. As a result of the capital raise in April of 2004 of $4.25 million, all of the outstanding balance of these notes have been fully extinguished subsequent to March 31, 2004 with cash payments of $333,000 and conversions of $583,000 of notes into 550,633 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company had issued in 1998 as a part of the consideration due to Affiliated Practices certain subordinated promissory notes (the "Series A Notes"). On September 19, 2003, all of the outstanding principal balance of the Series A Notes, in the sum of $849,000, were converted into 1,572,222 shares of the Company's common stock. A conversion price of $0.54 per share was used as the fair price per share which was the preceding twenty trading day average closing price of the Company's common stock. As a result of that conversion, the Company recorded a $252,000 charge associated with the conversion of the Series A Notes due to a difference in the closing price of the Company's common stock on the day of conversion and the twenty trading day average closing price. Holders of the Series A Notes included James M. Powers, Jr. who had received a $76,000 Series A Note as a part of the consideration paid to him from his own Affiliated Practice transaction in 1998. In connection with the Company's IPO in March of 1998, the Company issued $468,000 of notes (the "IPO Notes") to certain shareholders who had provided capital prior to the IPO. Originally, interest accrued at the rate of 6% with the entire amount due on March 30, 2003. Many of the IPO Note holders agreed to have the accrued interest added to the principal balance and extended the maturity date to April 1, 2005 in exchange for quarterly payments of interest and an increase in the interest rate to 10%. Several of the holders agreed to accept a discounted sum in full payment of their IPO Note. The new principal balance on these renewed and extended IPO Notes is $278,000 as of March 31, 2004. 63 The aggregate maturities of long-term debt excluding capital leases for each of the next five years subsequent to March 31, 2004 were as follows (IN THOUSANDS): 2005 ...................................... $ 961 2006 ...................................... 779 2007 ...................................... -- 2008 ...................................... -- 2009 ...................................... -- Thereafter ................................ 5,625 --------- $ 7,365 ========= 11. CAPITALIZATION PREFERRED STOCK The Company has the authority to issue ten million shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share. On September 16, 2003, the Company completed its private placement of convertible preferred stock with detachable warrants. The Company sold 30 units at $50,000 each and raised a total of $1,500,000. Each unit consisted of 5,000 shares of convertible preferred stock and a warrant to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock. The convertible preferred stock is convertible into the Company's common stock at a price of $0.50 per share (subject to adjustment in certain events, with a floor of $0.30), and the warrants are immediately exercisable at a price of $1.50 per share with a three-year term. Accordingly, each share of preferred stock is convertible into 20 shares of common stock and retains a $10 liquidation preference. The Company pays an 8% dividend to holders of the convertible preferred stock, and the dividend is cumulative. The convertible preferred stock is non-voting and non-participating. The shares of convertible preferred stock will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and were offered in a private placement providing exemption from registration. The placement agent was paid a commission of $150,000 or 10% of the gross proceeds plus $45,000, which represented a 3% non-accountable expense fee and received a warrant to purchase 3 units at the same terms of the original units. In addition, the Company paid $17,000 in legal and accounting fees bringing the net proceeds raised to $1,288,000. The Company used the net proceeds for general working capital, to expand its sales and marketing activities and to retire certain acquisition related liabilities. The cash proceeds of the private placement of convertible preferred stock was allocated pro-rata between the relative fair values of the preferred stock and warrants at issuance using the Black Scholes valuation model for valuing the warrants. After allocating the proceeds between the preferred stock and warrant, an effective conversion price was calculated for the convertible preferred stock to determine the beneficial conversion discount for each share. The aggregate value of the warrants and the beneficial conversion discount of $247,000 are considered a deemed dividend in the calculation of loss per share. Subsequent to March 31, 2004, holders of 22,500 shares converted to 450,000 shares of common stock. COMMON STOCK As of March 31, 2004, the Company is authorized to issue 100 million shares of common stock. The Company has acquired treasury stock from certain Affiliated Practices for the payment of receivables and purchase of property and equipment. In December 2001, the Company, under the initiative of the Compensation Committee with the approval of the Board of Directors, issued its chief executive officer an incentive stock grant under the 1997 Stock Compensation Plan of 450,000 restricted shares of the Company's common stock as a means to retain and incentivize the chief executive officer. The shares 100% vest after 10 years from the date of grant. The shares were valued at $405,000 based on the closing price of the stock on the date of grant, which is recorded as compensation expense ratably over the vesting period. The vesting of the incentive shares accelerates based on the Company's share price as follows: PERFORMANCE CRITERIA SHARES VESTED --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------- Share price trades for $4.50 per share for 20 consecutive days 150,000 shares Share price trades for $8.50 per share for 20 consecutive days 150,000 shares Share price trades for $12.50 per share for 20 consecutive days 150,000 shares 64 In connection with the restricted stock grant, the Company loaned the Chief Executive Officer $179,000 to fund the immediate tax consequences of the grant. The Company recognized a $179,000 charge to income at the date of grant. WARRANTS On November 19, 2003, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock to an advisor of the Company in exchange for certain advisory and consulting services pursuant to a written advisory agreement that will be provided to the Company over a three-year contractual period. The warrants are exercisable for shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $0.40. The warrant contained a provision that prohibited the delivery of shares even if exercised until after February 5, 2004. The warrants are currently treated as a variable plan grant; accordingly, the warrant will be revalued at each quarter end and the portion related to the cumulative expired services period less prior charges recorded will be recorded as a charge to expense during the period. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes model to calculate a fair value of $0.73 per share at March 31, 2004. A portion of the fair value totaling $20,000 was recognized for fiscal 2004. The Company issued warrants to purchase 887,752 shares of the Company's common stock to Bank One, the Company's prior lender, and the Company's legal counsel exercisable at prices ranging from $0.42 to $1.50 per share. The Company valued and expensed these warrants at $44,000 in fiscal 2002. The Company has issued other warrants in conjunction with various debt and equity offerings.

The Company has certain net operating losses in other states relating to its acquisitions (see Note 9). The Company is currently quantifying such net operating losses and evaluating the Company's ability to use them. The Company recorded a valuation allowance for its entire deferred tax asset because it concluded it is not likely it would be able to realize the tax assets due to the lack of profitable operating history of its implementation of the e-Learning plan. In accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 382, the annual utilization of net operating loss carry-forwards and credits existing prior to a change in control, as defined, in the Company or a company the Company has acquired may be substantially limited. Accordingly, the utilization of a substantial portion of the Company's net operating loss carry-forwards is limited, such as net operating loss carry-forwards are either related to the acquisition of ThoughtWare Technologies, Learning-Edge, Inc. and other acquired entities, or are related to current operations during which change in control events may have occurred. 13. STOCK OPTION PLANS AND WARRANTS The Company grants stock options under its 1997 Stock Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). The Company recognizes stock-based compensation issued to employees at the intrinsic value between the exercise price of options granted and the fair value of stock for which the options may be exercised. However, pro forma disclosures as if the Company recognized stock-based compensation at the fair value of the options themselves are presented below. Under the Plan, as amended, the Company is authorized to issue 3,500,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to "Awards" granted to officers and key employees in the form of stock options. There were 2,282,855 and 1,835,865 options granted under the Plan, at March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The Compensation Committee administers the Plan. These stock options have contractual terms of 10 years and have an exercise price no less than the fair market value of the stock at grant date. The options vest at varying rates over a one to five year period. 66 Following is a summary of the status of the Company's stock options as of March 31, 2004 and for the three years then ended: WEIGHTED NUMBER OF AVERAGE WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES UNDERLYING EXERCISE FAIR-VALUE OF OPTIONS PRICES OPTIONS GRANTED ------------------ ------------ ------------------ Outstanding at March 31, 2001................... 1,643,173 $ 2.50 Granted......................................... 515,765 0.65 $ 0.44 ================== Exercised.......................................

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES LEASE COMMITMENTS The Company leases a portion of its property and equipment under the terms of capital and operating leases.

As a part of the discontinued dental practice management services segment, the Company leased facilities in Houston, Texas on behalf of one of its Affiliated Practices consisting of 1,500 square feet with a ten-year term costing $2,800 per month. The Affiliated Practice vacated the premises without notice to the Company even though he had assumed the lease. The Company is currently seeking reimbursement for any and all amounts owed on this lease from the Affiliated Practice and is seeking to terminate the lease with the current landlord. At March 31, 2004, the Company has an accrual totaling $93,000 with respect to termination of this lease. 68 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS As of March 31, 2004, the Company had entered into employment agreements with Mr. Powers, Mr. Dunn, Mr. Zuckerman, and Mr. Cocozza, all of whom are officers and two of whom are directors of the Company. Each of these agreements provides for an annual base salary in an amount not less than the initial specified amount and entitles the employee to participate in all iLinc compensation plans in which other executive officers of iLinc participate. Each agreement establishes a base annual salary and provides for annual bonuses based on the Management Incentive Plan, as adopted by the Board of Directors, renews automatically, and is subject to the right of iLinc to terminate said employment at any time. Under each of the employment agreements, if iLinc terminates the employee's employment without cause (as therein defined), Mr. Powers, Mr. Dunn and Mr. Zuckerman will be entitled to a payment equal to twelve months' salary. Mr. Cocozza will be entitled to a payment equal to nine months' salary. Additionally, Mr. Powers, Mr. Dunn, and Mr. Zuckerman's employment agreements provide for a severance payment equal to one (1) year's compensation in the event of termination of employment following a change in control of the Company (as defined therein). Each of the foregoing agreements also contains a covenant limiting competition with the Company for one year following termination of employment. Subsequent to year-end, Mr. Zuckerman resigned from his employment with iLinc without any severance compensation. The minimum aggregate salary provisions under the contracts totals $506,000 in fiscal 2005. LITIGATION On June 14, 2002, the Company acquired the assets of Quisic Corporation. Subsequently, on November 4, 2002, two former employees of Quisic Corporation (their CEO and CIO), filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California styled George B. Weathersby, et. al. vs. Quisic Corporation, et. al. claiming damages against Quisic and the Board of Directors of Quisic arising from their employment termination by the Quisic Board. The Company was also added as a third party defendant with an allegation of successor liability, but only to the extent that Quisic Corporation is found liable, and then only to the extent the plaintiffs prove their successor liability claim against the Company. The Company only acquired certain assets of Quisic Corporation in an asset purchase transaction. Based upon the facts and circumstances known, the Company believes that the plaintiffs' claims are without merit, and furthermore, that the Company is not the successor of Quisic, and therefore the Company intends to vigorously defend this aspect of the lawsuit. While in the opinion of management, resolution of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows, the ultimate outcome of any litigation is uncertain. Were an unfavorable outcome to occur that awarded to the Plaintiffs against defendant Quisic large sums, and then the court determined that the Company is a successor to Quisic, then the impact is likely to be material to the Company. Subsequent to the defendants' answers being filed, the court ordered that an arbitration of the merits be held, but the date of that arbitration has not been set. On June 11, 2003, Kepner-Tregoe, Inc. filed suit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, styled, Kepner-Tregoe, Inc. vs. Internal & External Communications, Inc., et. al., against Quisic Corporation and the Board of Directors of Quisic seeking to collect an arbitration award against Internal & External Communications, Inc. (a subsidiary of Quisic). The Company was also added as a third party defendant with an allegation of successor liability, but only to the extent that Quisic Corporation is found liable, and then only to the extent the plaintiffs prove their successor liability claim against the Company. The Company only acquired certain assets of Quisic Corporation in an asset purchase transaction. As a part of the Quisic acquisition transaction consideration, the Company placed into escrow 500,000 shares of its common stock that was to secure a revenue performance requirement. That revenue performance target was not achieved and the Company demanded the return of the shares of common stock. The shareholders of Quisic do not dispute the right of the Company to obtain those shares. However, since the claims of the plaintiffs assert potential rights to those shares, they were instead tendered to the registry of the trial court pending resolution of the party's respective claims. Those 500,000 shares are not counted as shares outstanding nor as treasury shares as the performance contingency associated with those shares was not met. The Company believes that it is not the successor of Quisic, and therefore the Company intends to vigorously defend this aspect of the lawsuit. While in the opinion of management, resolution of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows, the ultimate outcome of any litigation is uncertain. Were an unfavorable outcome to occur that awarded to the Plaintiffs against defendant Quisic large sums, and then the court determined that the Company is a successor to Quisic, then the impact is likely to be material to the Company. Subsequent to the defendants' answers being filed, the Quisic defendants sought an order dismissing the plaintiff's claims and that order is still pending. 69 ROYALTY AGREEMENTS In connection with the acquisition of certain assets of Mentergy, Inc., the Company agreed to pay a royalty of 20% for all cash revenues collected from the sale or license of LearnLinc software over a three-year period. The first $600,000 of sales are not subject to the royalty. The maximum amount due under the Royalty Agreement is $5,000,000. As a result of the acquisition of certain assets of Quisic and the acquisition of ThoughtWare, the Company is party to other agreements to pay royalties to third-party providers of online courseware. These agreements call for payments to be made on a per user or percent of revenue basis and expire in fiscal 2005 and 2010. STOCK EXCHANGE LISTING The American Stock Exchange's continued listing standards require that the Company maintain stockholder's equity of at least $4.0 million if the Company has losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years. While the Company has sustained losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years, and had less than $4.0 million of stockholder's equity at March 31, 2004, the Company raised approximately $0.9 million in additional equity capital, converted certain other debt to equity and completed an acquisition subsequent to the fiscal year end and therefore has as of June 21, 2004 stockholder's equity in excess of the $4.0 million requirement. If in the future, the Company fails to maintain a sufficient level of stockholder's equity in compliance with those and other listing standards of the American Stock Exchange then the Company would be required to submit a plan to the American Stock Exchange describing how it intended to re-gain compliance with the requirements. CUSTOM CONTENT DEVELOPMENT Effective May 1, 2003, the Company terminated the employment of certain employees that had provided custom content development services. Those employees were permitted to create a new company, Interactive Alchemy, Inc. ("IA") and simultaneously entered into a non-cancelable three-year subcontractor agreement with the Company. IA continues to provide custom content development services to the Company for its customers in exchange for a fixed percentage of the Company's custom content project fee. The Company provides IA with certain facilities and administrative support for which in exchange it receives a specified amount of support services. During fiscal 2004, the Company incurred approximately $800,000 of fees to IA in connection with this agreement. The Company has open accounts payable and accrued liabilities to IA of approximately $149,000 as of March 31, 2004. 15. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS In December 2001, the Company, under the initiative of the Compensation Committee with the approval of the Board of Directors, issued its chief executive officer an incentive stock grant under the 1997 Stock Compensation Plan of 450,000 restricted shares of the Company's common stock as a means to retain and incentivize the chief executive officer. The shares 100% vest after 10 years from the date of grant. The shares were valued at $405,000 based on the closing price of the stock on the date of grant, which is recorded as compensation expense ratably over the ten-year vesting period. The vesting of the incentive shares accelerates based on the Company's share price as follows: PERFORMANCE CRITERIA SHARES VESTED --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------- Share price trades for $4.50 per share for 20 consecutive days 150,000 shares Share price trades for $8.50 per share for 20 consecutive days 150,000 shares Share price trades for $12.50 per share for 20 consecutive days 150,000 shares In connection with the restricted stock grant, the Company loaned the Chief Executive Officer $179,000 to fund the immediate tax consequences of the grant. The Company recognized a $179,000 charge to income at the date of grant. During fiscal 2004 and 2003, the Company recognized $18,200 and $2,500 respectively of legal expense to the Bogatin law firm of which a member of the Company's Board of Directors is a partner. 70 In May of 2003 Barnhill's Buffet purchased 50 LearnLinc Core Licenses with Voice over IP and 2- way Live Videoconferencing plus annual maintenance for $62,000. The remaining balance due under this contract was $28,000 at March 31, 2004. The price paid and the payment terms granted to Barnhill's was consistent with price paid and the terms extended to other customers of the Company. James M. Powers, Jr. is a co-founder and director of Barnhill's Buffet. Please refer to other related party transactions discussed in Note 10. 16.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In April of 2004, the Company completed a private placement offering with gross proceeds of $4.25 million that provided the Company $3.8 million of net proceeds. Under the terms of this offering, the Company issued $3,187,500 in unsecured senior notes and 1,634,550 shares of Common Stock of the Company. The senior notes were issued as a series of notes pursuant to a unit purchase and agency agreement. The senior notes are unsecured, non-convertible, and the 72 purchasers received no warrants. The placement agent received a commission equal to 10% of the gross proceeds together with a warrant for the purchase of 163,455 shares of the Company's common stock at a price equal to 120% of the price paid by investors. The senior notes bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum and accrued interest is due and payable on a quarterly basis beginning July 15, 2004, with principal due at maturity on July 15, 2007. The senior notes are redeemable by the Company at 100% of the principal value at any time after July 15, 2005. The senior notes are unsecured obligations of the Company but are senior in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company. Individuals and entities participating in this offering have the right to demand registration of the common stock issued therefrom upon written notice to the Company and also have piggy-back registration rights should the company file a registration statement before the shares are otherwise registered. On June 3, 2004, the Company executed an agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of and assume certain liabilities of Glyphics Communications, Inc., a Utah based private company that is a provider of comprehensive audio conferencing products and services. The acquisition had a stated effective date of June 1, 2004 and was fully consummated on June 14, 2004. The purchase price, which is expected to total $5.568 million, is based on a multiple of the Glyphics' 2003 estimated annual audited net audio conferencing business revenues. The purchase price will be paid with the assumption of approximately $2.114 million in specific liabilities, with the balance paid using the Company's common stock at the fixed price of $1.05 per share, or an estimated 3.524 million shares. The actual purchase price to be paid, and the resulting number of shares to be issued will be based upon the audited results that are expected to be obtained within sixty days of the closing date. Twenty percent of the consideration due is being held in escrow. Amounts held in escrow will be available to the Company to satisfy contingent claims and seller's indemnification obligations. Amounts held in escrow also may be returned to the Company in the event that audio conferencing revenue performance measures required to be obtained by the Company during the 2004 calendar year are not met. Individuals and entities participating in this transaction who are shareholders receiving the Company's common stock have the right to demand registration of the common stock issued therefrom upon written notice, one year from the date of the transaction, to the Company and also have piggy-back registration rights should the Company file a registration statement before the shares are otherwise registered. On April 9, 2004, one holder of a subordinated promissory note relating to the Learning-Edge acquisition converted the unpaid principal balance of the note of $47,057 into 44,817 shares of the Company's common stock. On April 13, 2004, an investor of the 2003 private placement of preferred stock with detachable warrants converted 2,500 shares of the Company's preferred stock into 50,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Effective April 15, 2004, Preston A. Zuckerman terminated his employment with the Company and resigned from the board of directors. The note conversion and settlement agreement associated with this termination resulted in the conversion of promissory notes relating to the Learning-Edge acquisition totaling $766,969 converting into 272,378 shares of the Company's common stock, payment of $40,000 of deferred compensation and a new promissory note in the amount of $230,757. On June 4, 2004, this promissory note was converted to 233,088 shares of the Company's common stock. During May 2004 and June 2004, all holders of the unsecured subordinated convertible notes, relating to the February 2004 capital raise of $500,000, converted the notes into 714,285 shares of common stock of the Company. On June 16, 2004, an investor of the 2003 private placement of preferred stock with detachable warrants converted 20,000 shares of the Company's preferred stock into 400,000 shares of the Company's common stock. ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE On April 3, 2003 the Company dismissed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as its independent accountants and engaged BDO Seidman, LLP. The Company's Audit Committee and Board of Directors participated in and approved the decision to change independent accountants. BDO Seidman, LLP audited the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. 73 The report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified as to audit scope or accounting principle, except that the report contained an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. In connection with its audit for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2002 and through April 3, 2003, there have been no disagreements with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the consolidated financial statements for such years. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 and through April 3, 2003, there have been no reportable events (as defined in Regulation S-K Item 304(a)(1)(v)). For the fiscal year of the Company ended March 31, 2002 and the subsequent interim period through April 3, 2003, the Company did not consult with BDO Seidman, LLP regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant's financial statements, or any other accounting, auditing or reporting matters. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES We evaluated the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures to determine whether they are effective in ensuring that we disclose the required information in a timely manner and in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, supervised and participated in the evaluation. The evaluation was completed as of the end of the period covered by the report. The principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded, based on their review, that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined by Exchange Act Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c), are effective and ensure that we disclose the required information in reports that we file under the Exchange Act and that the filings are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. No significant changes were made to our internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues if any, within a company have been detected.

In our opinion, this financial statement schedule presents fairly, in all material respects, the 2004 and 2003 information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related 2004 and 2003 consolidated financial statements, included therein. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a significant working capital deficiency and has suffered substantial recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 2. The long-term continuation of the Company is dependent on the Company's ability to raise additional equity or debt capital, to increase its revenues, to generate positive cash flows from operations and to achieve profitability. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ BDO Seidman, LLP Costa Mesa, California May 21, 2004, except for Note 18, as to which the date is June 21, 2004 79 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ON FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES To The Board of Directors and Shareholders of iLinc Communications, Inc. and Subsidiaries Our audits of the consolidated financial statements referred to in our report dated July 11, 2002 appearing in the 2004 Annual Report to Shareholders of iLinc Communications, Inc.
