Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(In Thousands, Except for Share and Per Share Data)
Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 (unaudited)
 
Note 1.  The Company and Basis of Presentation
 
Company
 
DigitalFX International, Inc. (the “Company”), a Florida corporation, is a holding company, and creator of digital communications and social networking solutions, as showcased on its social network www.helloworld.com operated by its wholly-owned subsidiary, DigitalFX Networks, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“DigitalFX Networks”).
 
The Company develops, hosts and markets proprietary communication and collaboration services, and social networking software applications, including video email, video instant messaging and live webcasting. The portal utilizes a commercial-free, subscription-based Application Service Provider (ASP) model.
 
The Company sells subscriptions to its portal through a unique multi-tiered affiliate program using non-related independent distributors, known as “Affiliates.” The Company also markets subscriptions directly to “Retail Customers” who purchase them for their personal use. In addition to offering portal subscriptions, the Company sells select products to these Affiliates through its U.S. subsidiary VMdirect, L.L.C., a Nevada limited liability company (“VMdirect”), and its wholly-owned U.K. and Ireland subsidiaries to assist them in building their businesses and in selling subscriptions to the portal.
 
The Company has developed an additional portal called FirstStream, www.firststream.com , through which subscriptions are offered by certain qualified Affiliates to small and medium sized businesses. These are sold through DigitalFX Networks.
 
The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, DigitalFX Solutions, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“DigitalFX Solutions”), operates its website, www.digitalfxsolutions.com , which offers the Company’s video-enabled web platform to enterprise-sized businesses. In addition, DigitalFX Solutions has an electronics division, whose purpose is to expand the Company’s current product offerings to other electronic devices, supplies, software and components.
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, VMdirect and its wholly-owned U.K. and Ireland subsidiaries, and the Company’s wholly-owned Nevada subsidiaries. Inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
 
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but in the opinion of management of the Company, contain all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position at March 31, 2008, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 and the cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. The Company’s audited financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 are included in its 10-KSB filing dated March 31, 2008. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(In Thousands, Except for Share and Per Share Data)
Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 (unaudited)
 
Merger and Stock Split
 
On June 15, 2006, Qorus.com, Inc., an inactive Florida corporation (“Qorus”) with no current operations, issued to the members of VMdirect (“Members”) 1,014,589 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Qorus (the “Preferred Stock”), which were converted into 1,057,547,456 shares of Qorus’ common stock (“Conversion Shares”). The number of shares of Preferred Stock issued to the Members and the number of Conversion Shares gives effect to the issuance of 289,292 membership units by VMdirect for an aggregate purchase price of $625, a transaction that was completed immediately prior to the closing of the transaction with Qorus. The transaction has been accounted for as a reverse merger (recapitalization) with the Company deemed the accounting acquirer, and Qorus the legal acquirer. As such, the financial statements herein reflect the historical activity of VMdirect since its inception, and the historical stockholders’ equity of VMdirect has been retroactively restated for the equivalent number of shares received in the exchange after giving effect to any differences in the par value offset to additional paid in capital. Subsequent to the consummation of this transaction, Qorus changed its name to DigitalFX International, Inc.
 
On August 1, 2006, the Company affected a 1 for 50 reverse stock split. The effect of this stock split has been retroactively reflected in the financial statements as if the stock split occurred at the beginning of the earliest period reported.
 
Note 2.  Accounting Policies
 
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
 
The condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing condensed financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Examples of significant estimates used in preparing the accompanying condensed financial statements include, but are not limited to: the fair value of investments in non-marketable securities; the carrying value of notes receivable; the carrying value of long-lived assets; useful lives of property and equipment; revenue recognition; and the valuation allowances for receivables, inventories and sales returns, and the value of stock options issued for the purpose of determining stock-based compensation. Actual results and outcomes may materially differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with remaining maturities of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. The Company holds its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions.
 
At March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company had $746 and $789, respectively, of funds held by credit card merchant processors as reserves against any possible charge backs and returns on credit card transactions related to customer disputes that are not offset against the Company’s daily sales deposit activity. These amounts are reflected as Deposit, Merchant Processors on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(In Thousands, Except for Share and Per Share Data)
Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 (unaudited)
 
At December 31, 2007, the Company had $2,000 of funds held by a bank under a letter of credit arrangement pursuant to its Convertible Notes Payable. These amounts are reflected as Restricted Cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007. In March, 2008, as described in Note 9, the Company restructured its agreement and these funds were returned to the Investors.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued commissions and due to affiliate approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these financial instruments. The Company believes that the carrying value of its Convertible Notes Payable approximates fair value as the interest rate of the notes approximates the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Investments are recorded at fair value.
 
Revenues
 
The Company generates revenue through (i) sales of affiliate business packages and selling aids to Affiliates which include cameras, sales literature, and training videos, and the initial month’s subscription to its internet-based suite of products which includes a wide spectrum of streaming video content and an integrated suite of streaming media applications, including video email, video chat, and live web-casting, (ii) sales of monthly subscriptions to retail customers and Affiliates with a wide spectrum of streaming video content as well as an integrated suite of streaming media applications, including video email, video chat, and live web-casting, (iii) sales of branded apparel and merchandise, (iv) sales of electronic components and (v) hosting conferences and events.
 
Affiliate Business Packages
 
The Company recognizes revenue from the sales of the cameras and selling aids within the business package, including shipping revenue, in accordance with SAB No. 104, when persuasive evidence of an order arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Generally, these criteria are met at the time the product is shipped to customers when title and risk of loss have transferred. Sales of the above products, ranging in price from $79 to $1,999 (pricing not in thousands), entail no post-customer support or delivery of any other items. Allowances for estimated subsequent customer returns are provided when revenues are recorded. Costs incurred for the shipping and handling of its products are recorded as cost of sales.
 
The Company recognizes revenue from sale of the Affiliate’s initial month’s subscription to the internet-based suite of products in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals and based on the fair value of such suite of products. Fair value is determinable because the subscription fee is thereafter billed monthly at a fixed rate based on the level of service selected. Access to the internet-based studio suite of the products is delivered together, and the individual products within the suite cannot be sold separately. Access is delivered immediately upon sign up and order acceptance.

A monthly subscription is cancellable at any time. The relevant subscription fee is fully refundable if such cancellation is made in writing in accordance with the Company’s policies but only for the current month.
 
Monthly Subscriptions
 
The Company recognizes revenue from sales of a month’s subscription to retail customers and sales to Affiliates for their recurring subscription to the internet-based suite of products in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and based on the fair value of such suite of products. Fair value is determinable because the subscription fee is billed at a fixed rate based on the level of service selected. Funds collected in advance of the billing period are deferred. A monthly subscription is cancellable at any time. The Company records an allowance for potential chargebacks on subscription fees based on an analysis of historical data for the four months preceding the date of measurement. The accuracy of these estimates is dependent on the rate of future chargebacks being consistent with the historical rate. Increases or decreases to the sales allowance are charged to revenue.
 
Apparel and Merchandise
 
The Company also sells select products to Affiliates to assist them in building their businesses and in selling subscriptions to the portal. Revenue for these sales including shipping revenue is recognized when all the criteria of SAB No. 104 described above are met, which is generally upon shipment.
 
Electronic Components
 
The Company recognizes revenue from the sales of electronic components in accordance with SAB No. 104, when persuasive evidence of an order arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Generally, these criteria are met at the time the product is shipped to customers when title and risk of loss have transferred. Sales of the above products entail no post-customer support or delivery of any other items.
 
Conferences and Events
 
The Company also earns fees for certain events it hosts such as sales and training conferences and seminars. Revenue is recognized when all of the criteria of SAB No. 104 described above are met, which is generally after the event has occurred. Amounts collected prior to the event are reflected as deferred revenue, and recognized after the event has occurred. As of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company had $0 in deferred revenue related to conferences and events.
 
Shipping and Handling Fees
 
Shipping and handling fees are billed to customers and included in revenue. The related costs are included in cost of goods sold. Shipping and handling costs are charged to expense as incurred. Total shipping and handling costs of $94 and $103 are included in cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Product Returns and Cancellations
 
Affiliate business packages and merchandise returned within the first 30 days of purchase are generally refunded at 90 percent of the sales price. Returned products that were damaged during shipment to the customer are replaced immediately at the Company’s expense.
 
The sales allowance is a monthly estimate of refunds to be issued on affiliate business packages that have been shipped but are still subject to the Company’s return policy at month end. The allowance is based on an analysis of the historical rate of credits and refunds, using the latest four months activity. Increases or decreases to the sales allowance are charged to revenue.
 
Monthly subscription services are provided immediately upon enrollment and continue until cancelled. The recurring subscription can be cancelled at any time in writing. An allowance is recorded for subscription cancellations based on an analysis of historical data for the four months preceding the date of measurement.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123R, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” effective January 1, 2006, and is using the modified prospective method in which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123R that remain unvested on the effective date. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with EITF No. 96-18: “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services,” and EITF 00-18 “Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees” whereby the fair value of the stock compensation is based on the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instrument is complete.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share
 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share,” requires presentation of basic earnings per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing earnings (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method, that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. In computing diluted earnings per share, the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding options and warrants are exercised and the proceeds are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Options and warrants will have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options and warrants.
 
The following is a reconciliation of the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.

Options to purchase 291,500 shares of common stock at $7.75 per share and options to purchase 82,000 shares of common stock at $3.50 per share were outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2007 but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for this period because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares during this period, and their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company partially adopted SFAS 157, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” (SFAS 157) on January 1, 2008, delaying application for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities as permitted. This statement establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
 
SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:
 
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical asset or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 1 inputs include active exchange-traded securities and exchange-based derivatives.
 
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 2 inputs include fixed income securities, non-exchange-based derivatives, mutual funds, and fair-value hedges.
 
Level 3: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 3 inputs include infrequently-traded, non-exchange-based derivatives and commingled investment funds, and are measured using present value pricing models.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 141 (R), “Business Combinations” (FAS 141(R)), which establishes accounting principles and disclosure requirements for all transactions in which a company obtains control over another business. Statement 141 (R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51.” SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards that require that the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent be clearly identified, labeled, and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parent’s equity; the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income; and changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently. SFAS No. 160 also requires that any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary be initially measured at fair value when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS No. 160 also sets forth the disclosure requirements to identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS No. 160 applies to all entities that prepare consolidated financial statements, except not-for-profit organizations, but will affect only those entities that have an outstanding noncontrolling interest in one or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. SFAS No. 160 must be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which it is initially applied, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements. The presentation and disclosure requirements are applied retrospectively for all periods presented.
 
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161 (FAS 161), “Disclosures About Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment of FAS 133.” FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. FAS 161 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company does not expect the implementation of FAS 161 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 3.  Product, Customer and Geographic Information
 
SFAS No. 131, “Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” establishes standards for the reporting of business enterprises of information about operating segments, products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The standard for determining what information to report is based on operating segments within DigitalFX International that are regularly reviewed and used by the chief operating decision-maker in evaluating financial performance and resource allocation.
 
DigitalFX International’s chief operating decision-maker is considered to be the chief executive officer (CEO). Based on the financial information reviewed by the CEO, the Company has determined that it operates in a single operating segment, specifically, digital web-based communications services.

Note 5.  Restricted Cash
 
Pursuant to its Convertible Notes Payable agreements described in Note 9, the Company was required to have letters of credit issued in the aggregate amount of $2,000 (for which the Company provided the collateral) for the benefit of the Investors. At December 31, 2007, the Company classified the $2,000 as restricted cash on its consolidated balance sheet.

T Note 6.   Investment In and Convertible Secured Promissory Note due from Related Party
 
On June 8, 2007, the Company entered into a Subscription, Loan and Rights Agreement (the “SaySwap Agreement”) with SaySwap, Inc. (“SaySwap”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “SaySwap Note”) issued by SaySwap in the principal amount of $225, and a warrant (the “SaySwap Warrant”) to purchase 26.1 shares of SaySwap’s common stock. SaySwap is a company that is 60% owned by the Company’s Chief Operating Officer and members of his immediate family.
 
The SaySwap Note accrues interest at a rate of 8% per annum and has a maturity date of April 24, 2009, provided, however, that if SaySwap consummates a qualified financing (as defined in the SaySwap Note), SaySwap is required to repay the outstanding principal amount and all accrued interest on the SaySwap Note within 10 days of the consummation of such qualified financing. The Company may also declare the outstanding principal and accrued interest due and payable in the event of a default under the SaySwap Note. The SaySwap Note is convertible, at the Company’s option, into shares of SaySwap’s common stock, at any time prior to 30 days before the maturity date or three days before the consummation of a qualified financing. As security for SaySwap’s obligations under the SaySwap Note, SaySwap also granted to the Company a first priority security interest in all of SaySwap’s assets.
 
The SaySwap Warrant entitles the Company to purchase 26.1 shares of SaySwap’s common stock at a per share price of $3,831. The SaySwap Warrant expires on May 31, 2010. In February, 2008, the Company exercised the SaySwap Warrant for $100. After the exercise, the Company owned a non-controlling interest in SaySwap of approximately 2%.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the SaySwap Agreement, the Company is entitled to demand that SaySwap register the shares of SaySwap’s common stock issuable upon conversion of the SaySwap Note or exercise of the SaySwap Warrant (the “Underlying SaySwap Shares”) at such time that SaySwap files a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Transparensee Systems, Inc.
 
On June 8, 2007, the Company purchased a Convertible Promissory Note (the “Transparensee Note”) issued by Transparensee in the principal amount of $175. The Transparensee Note may not be prepaid, accrues interest at a rate of 4.85% per annum and has a maturity date of the earlier of May 14, 2008 or when, upon or after the occurrence of an event of default under the Transparensee Note, such amounts are declared due and payable by the Company or made automatically due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Transparensee Note. Provided that Transparensee obtains the requisite approvals for the creation and designation of a new series to be designated Series A Preferred Stock, the Transparensee Note is automatically convertible, on the maturity date, into shares of Transparensee’s Series A Preferred Stock at a per share price of $2.075, or upon the consent of the requisite shareholders of Transparensee. In addition, upon the consummation of a change in control of Transparensee, the Transparensee Note automatically converts into shares of Transparensee’s common stock at a per share price of $2.075.

The Company agreed to indemnify Transparensee in connection with claims with respect to any modifications made by the Company to the licensed software, and losses in connection therewith.  
 
At December 31, 2007, the Company assessed its investment for impairment and recorded a valuation reserve of $175 which reduced the fair value of its investment to $0. No interest income has been recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

The Company is required to pay fees for the license and integration services as set forth in the Transparensee License Agreement. The Transparensee License Agreement has a term of two years from the date on which the Company’s system is activated with Transparensee’s software running on it, and is automatically renewed for additional two-year terms unless the Company provides notice to Transparensee of its intention to terminate the Transparensee License Agreement at least 30 days prior to the expiration of any term.
 
On June 8, 2007, the Company also entered into a Reseller Agreement with Transparensee pursuant to which the Company was appointed as an authorized, non-exclusive reseller of the licensed software and related documentation. The Company was also granted a non-exclusive license to use, install and operate the licensed software for the purposes of testing and evaluation, training of the Company’s personnel and Affiliates, and demonstrating and promoting the licensed software to potential end-users. The Company shall receive a percentage of the gross revenue received from product orders. The term of the Reseller Agreement is the same as the term of the Transparensee License Agreement.

On March 24, 2008, the Company entered into Amendment and Exchange Agreements with the Investors pursuant to which Company agreed, along with the Investors, to restructure the financing consummated under the Securities Purchase Agreement to reduce the amount of the financing to $3,000, with each Investor receiving repayment of its pro-rata share of $4,000, including $2,000 held in a collateral account for certain letters of credit (see Restricted Cash in Note 5), through the exchange of Existing Notes for a combination of amended and restated senior secured convertible notes (“Amended and Restated Notes”) and an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock (the “Common Shares”), and through the exchange of Existing Warrants for amended and restated warrants (“Amended and Restated Warrants”). The Amended and Restated Notes have an aggregate principal amount of $3,000 and a term of three years commencing from November 30, 2007. The Amended and Restated Warrants have a term of five years commencing from November 30, 2007 and entitle the Investors to initially purchase an aggregate of 750,002 shares of our common stock (subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended and Restated Warrants, including pursuant to economic anti-dilution adjustments). The Amended and Restated Notes carry interest at 7.50% per annum on the unpaid/unconverted principal balance, payable quarterly in cash, and are secured on a senior basis against all of our assets. The Company is required to make aggregate monthly principal payments of $25, plus accrued interest thereon, beginning July 1, 2008.

The Amended and Restated Notes are convertible into approximately 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, based on a conversion price of $2.00 per share (subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended and Restated Notes, including pursuant to economic anti-dilution adjustments), which shall reset on March 26, 2009 to the greater of (i) 105% of the arithmetic average of the dollar the weighted average price of our common stock over each of the five consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately prior to March 26, 2009 and (ii) $1.00 (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, reverse stock splits or other similar events); provided however, that in no event shall the adjusted conversion price be greater than $3.00 (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, reverse stock splits or other similar events). The Amended and Restated Warrants have an exercise price of $0.959 per share (subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended and Restated Warrants, including pursuant to economic anti-dilution adjustments).
 
The Amended and Restated Notes are convertible at the option of the Investors prior to their maturity. Additionally, beginning November 30, 2008, and provided that the Company has complied with certain equity conditions, the Company will be able to require the Investors to convert the Amended and Restated Notes into shares of its common stock if the dollar volume weighted average price of its common stock is $2.75 (subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended and Restated Notes) for twenty (20) out of thirty (30) consecutive trading days.
 
The Amended and Restated Notes and the Amended and Restated Warrants provide that the Company shall not be obligated to issue shares of common stock upon conversion of the Amended and Restated Notes and the exercise of the Amended and Restated Warrants in excess of 45,000,000 in the aggregate.
 
The maturity date of the Amended and Restated Notes is November 29, 2010. The Investors are entitled to accelerate the maturity date in the event that there occurs an event of default under the Amended and Restated Notes, including, without limitation, if the Company fails to register for resale the Common Shares and the shares underlying the Amended and Restated Notes and Amended and Restated Warrants, if the Company fails to pay any amount under the Amended and Restated Notes when due, if a judgment is rendered against the Company in an amount set forth in the Amended and Restated Notes, if the Company breaches any representation or warranty under the Securities Purchase Agreement or other transaction documents, or if the Company fails to comply with the specified covenants set forth in the Amended and Restated Notes. Among the other covenants, the Amended and Restated Notes contain financial covenants whereby the Company will be required to achieve specified EBITDA and revenue targets in each of the fiscal quarters during which the Amended and Restated Notes are outstanding. Any failure to achieve an EBITDA or revenue target will be considered a breach of the financial covenant.
 
Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Amended and Restated Notes, the Investors may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Amended and Restated Notes by delivering written notice thereof to the Company. The portion of the Amended and Restated Notes being redeemed shall be redeemed by the Company at a price equal to the greater of (i) the product of (A) the amount being redeemed and (B) the applicable redemption premium (between 100% and 125%) and (ii) the product of (A) the number of shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon the conversion of such amount and (B) the greater of (I) the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the date immediately preceding such event of default, (II) the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the date immediately after such event of default and (III) the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the date the Investor delivers a redemption notice in connection with an event of default.

Pursuant to the Amendment and Exchange Agreements, the Registration Rights Agreement dated November 30, 2007 was amended to provide that the Company must register for resale 100% of the sum (i) the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Amended and Restated Notes as of the trading day immediately preceding the date the registration statement is initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), (ii) the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of the Amended and Restated Warrants as of the trading day immediately preceding the date the registration statement is initially filed with the SEC, and (iii) the Common Shares, and to remove language that provided that if (i) the Company did not file a registration statement by a specified date, (ii) the registration statement was not declared effective on or prior to a specified effectiveness date, or (iii) after the effective date, such registration statement ceased to remain continuously effective prior to the expiration of a certain effectiveness period, the Company had to pay the Investors, on the occurrence of the event and for each month thereafter that it continued, an amount in cash as partial damages equal to 1.5% of the aggregate purchase price paid by the Investors for the shares underlying the Notes and Warrants then held by the Investors.
 
In addition, under the terms of the Amendment and Exchange Agreements, if a registration statement is not available for the resale of the Common Shares and the shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the Amended and Restated Notes and the Amended and Restated Warrants and the Company fails to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Company will pay the Investors on the occurrence of such event and for each month thereafter that such event continues (or until such time such information is no longer required under the rule), an amount in cash as partial liquidated damages equal to 1.5% of the aggregate purchase price of the Investors’ Amended and Restated Notes then outstanding.
 
Under the terms of the Amendment and Exchange Agreements, so long as the Amended and Restated Notes are outstanding, each Investor is not permitted to sell a number of Common Shares exceeding more than two-thirds (2/3) of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock previously issued, or required to have been issued, to such Investor upon conversion of such Investor's Amended and Restated Notes.
 
In connection with the restructuring transaction, VM Investors, LLC, the Company’s majority shareholder (whose members include Craig Ellins, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and Amy Black, the President of VMdirect), agreed to transfer 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock back to the Company.
 
Maxim Group L.L.C. acted as placement agent in connection with the transaction. For their services as placement agent, the Company was required to pay Maxim an aggregate commission in cash equal to 8% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Existing Notes and Existing Warrants, a non-accountable expense allowance of 1% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Existing Notes and Existing Warrants, plus a warrant to purchase 7% of the shares underlying the Existing Notes and Existing Warrants issuable to the Investors. The Company issued a warrant to purchase 236,250 shares (subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended and Restated Warrants, including pursuant to economic anti-dilution adjustments) of its common stock with an exercise price of $2.93 and a term of 5 years to Maxim and paid Maxim a fee of $459,993.

At December 31, 2007, prior to the restructuring transaction, the initial fair value of the conversion feature was $370 and the initial fair value of the warrants was $1,070 based upon the relative value of the Black Sholes valuation of the warrants and the underlying debt amount. For the Black Sholes calculation, the Company assumed no dividend yield, a risk free interest rate of 4.63%, expected volatility of 68.38% and an expected term of the warrants of 5 years. At March 31, 2008, after the restructuring transaction, the fair value of the conversion feature was reduced to $0 and the fair value of the warrants was reduced to $376. The fair value of the warrants is reflected by the Company as a valuation discount and offset to the carrying value of the notes and will be amortized over the remaining term of the notes.
 
At December 31, 2007, prior to the restructuring transaction, deferred financing costs, which consist of cash paid at closing of the notes and the fair value of the warrants issued to the placement agent totaled $961. At March 31, 2008, after the restructuring transaction, the remaining deferred financing costs totaled $442, which will be amortized over the remaining term of the notes.
 
The restructuring transaction substantially amended the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to EITF 96-19, “Debtor’s Accounting for a Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments,” a substantial modification in terms of an existing debt, should be reported as a debt extinguishment. The Company’s modification of terms as described above resulted in a loss on modification of debt of $1,920, which is reflected in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The loss on modification of debt consisted of a write down of deferred financing costs of $436, modification of the Investor’s warrants of $534 and the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of common stock with a fair market value of $950.
 
Note 10.  Stock Options and Warrants

The exercise price of incentive stock options must be at least equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of incentive stock options granted to 10% shareholders must be at least equal to 110% of that value. The exercise price of nonqualified stock options will be determined by the administrator of the plan when the options are granted. The term of options granted under the Company’s 2006 Stock Incentive Plan may not exceed 10 years and typically vest over four years, with 25% of the options vesting after 12 months and 75% vesting monthly over the remaining three years.

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”) —an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes . The Interpretation addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under FIN 48, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. At the date of adoption, and as of March 31, 2008, the Company does not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits.
 
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for periods after June 16, 2006, the date at which the Company completed its reverse merger transaction. In addition, the Company files income tax returns in the United Kingdom and Ireland for the foreign subsidiaries located in these jurisdictions. The Company is subject to tax examinations by tax authorities in these jurisdictions, however, as of December 31, 2007, there are no open foreign tax audits or inquiries relating to the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.
 
The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax provisions as income tax expense. As of March 31, 2008, the Company has no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
 
Note 13.  Legal Proceedings
 
From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of its operations in the normal course of business. Except as is described below, the Company is not currently party to any legal proceedings , the adverse outcome of which, in management’s opinion, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
 
On February 7, 2007, VMdirect and DigitalFX Solutions jointly filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles against a former Affiliate of VMdirect alleging a number of complaints including unfair business practice, misappropriation of trade secrets, slander, intentional interference with contractual relationship, intentional interference with prospective economic advantage and breach of contract, and seeking compensatory and punitive damages in amounts to be proved at trial, injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees and costs. The defendant became an Affiliate of VMdirect in May 2006 and agreed to adhere to VMdirect’s Code of Ethics for Affiliates. Upon signing up as an Affiliate, defendant represented that he was capable of bringing a substantial number of new Affiliates to VMdirect, and in reliance on this representation, VMdirect agreed to provide certain privileges to defendant including posting of training materials on VMdirect’s website. VMdirect also agreed to work with defendant to develop training materials. Although VMdirect paid for all of the costs of developing the materials and its personnel actively participated in the development of such materials, defendant demanded aggregate compensation of $300,000 for creating the training and motivational materials after they were completed. After VMdirect did not pay this fee to defendant, defendant requested that VMdirect stop using the materials, began disparaging VMdirect and its officers, and engaged in cross-recruiting Affiliates from other VMdirect networks, a practice prohibited by VMdirect’s Code of Ethics for its Affiliates. VMdirect then terminated defendant’s distribution network and believes that defendant continues to use VMdirect’s proprietary trade secrets to recruit Affiliates to join other network marketing companies that compete with VMdirect.

DigitalFX International, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(In Thousands, Except for Share and Per Share Data)
Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 (unaudited)
 
On March 6, 2007, the Company, along with VMdirect and DigitalFX Solutions, was served with a cross complaint for damages filed in the Superior Court of California for the County of Los Angeles, by this same former Affiliate for alleged breach of contract, fraud-intentional misrepresentation, fraud-intentional concealment/omission, fraud-false promises, negligent misrepresentation and infringement of the rights of publicity and privacy, and seeking general, exemplary and punitive damages in amounts to be determined at trial and an order enjoining the Company’s use of his name, image, photograph and likeness for any purpose without his written consent. This former Affiliate alleges that the officers of VMdirect agreed to grant him 60,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, agreed to pay him a percentage of sales to small businesses and enterprises in connection with his creation of certain training materials, agreed to pay for the costs of all training materials created by him and agreed that all training materials which contained his likeness would remain his intellectual property. This former Affiliate also alleges that it was expressly agreed that a copy of such materials would be made available to him for posting as promotional materials on his own website and that his consent for VMdirect to use his image and likeness on its websites would be revocable at any time.
 
On March 6, 2007, legal counsel for the same former Affiliate filed a Notice of Removal of Action with the United States District Court of the Central District of California seeking to remove the case from the Superior Court of California to the United States District Court. The Company’s legal counsel filed a motion to remand the case back to the Superior Court of California which motion was granted.
 
On August 31, 2007, the former Affiliate unsuccessfully applied for a temporary restraining order (“TRO”) to enjoin VMdirect from using on its website the training materials featuring the former Affiliate. As a result of this unsuccessful application, the Court ordered VMdirect and DigitalFX Solutions to qualify to do business in California if they wished to proceed with their complaint against the former Affiliate. On December 10, 2007, DigitalFX Solutions qualified to do business in California. On December 14, 2007, VMdirect qualified to do business in California. VMdirect and DigitalFX Solutions complied with the Court order for the purpose of pursuing their litigation against the former Affiliate.
 
On April 16, 2008 the Court temporarily stayed all discovery and ordered the appointment of a discovery referee. This action was in response to motions to compel further discovery responses which were filed by the former Affiliate against the Company and its subsidiaries. A motion for protective order was also filed by the Company and its subsidiaries against the former Affiliate because of his abusive litigation tactics. The appointment of this discovery referee will cause additional cost to be incurred in prosecuting and defending this case.
 
Management believes there exists no basis for the former Affiliate's claims and intends to defend this matter vigorously.   In the event management’s assessment of the case is incorrect, the economic impact on the Company would be insignificant and would not materially affect its operations.

Description of Business
 
Corporate History
 
DigitalFX International, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Florida on January 23, 1991. Prior to November 2001, we provided intelligent message communications services to enterprises in the travel and hospitality sectors. In November 2001, we sold substantially all of our assets to Avery Communications, Inc. after which we continued without material business assets, operations or revenues. On June 22, 2004, we consummated the transactions contemplated by a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated June 10, 2004, by and among our company, Keating Reverse Merger Fund, LLC (“KRM Fund”), Thurston Interests, LLC (“Thurston”) and certain other shareholders of our company. The transactions resulted in a change of control whereby KRM Fund became our majority shareholder. From November 2001 through June 15, 2006, we were a public “shell” company with nominal assets.
 
31

 
On May 23, 2006, we entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with VMdirect, L.L.C., a Nevada limited liability company (“VMdirect”), the members of VMdirect holding a majority of its membership interests (together with all of the members of VMdirect, the “VMdirect Members”), and KRM Fund. The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Exchange Agreement occurred on June 15, 2006. At the closing, we acquired all of the outstanding membership interests of VMdirect (the “Interests”) from the VMdirect Members, and the VMdirect Members contributed all of their Interests to us. In exchange, we issued to the VMdirect Members 1,014,589 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Shares”), which, as a result of the approval by a substantial majority of our outstanding shareholders entitled to vote and the approval by our board of directors on June 22, 2006, of amendments to our articles of incorporation that (i) changed our name to DigitalFX International, Inc., (ii) increased our authorized number of shares of common stock to 100,000,000, and (iii) adopted a 1-for-50 reverse stock split, on August 1, 2006 converted into approximately 21,150,959 shares of our common stock on a post-reverse stock split basis.
 
At the closing, VMdirect became our wholly-owned subsidiary. The exchange transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger (recapitalization) with VMdirect deemed to be the accounting acquirer, and our company deemed to be the legal acquirer.
 
Business Overview
 
We are a digital communications and social networking company that, directly and through a multi-tiered affiliate program, offers a suite of proprietary digital communication tools, including video email, video instant messaging, live webcasting, podcasting, blogging, and digital vault storage. Our social networking website, www.helloworld.com , operated by our wholly-owned subsidiary DigitalFX Networks, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“DigitalFX Networks”), targets users from ages 18 to 65. The site features a full suite of digital communication tools, and multi-tiered affiliates (“Affiliates”) and retail customers pay a monthly subscription fee to use the tools and participate in the social network. Additionally, our website, www.vmdirect.com UT H , operated by our wholly-owned subsidiary VMdirect, L.L.C., a Nevada limited liability company (“VMdirect”) offers Affiliates the tools necessary to effectively market and distribute our digital communication tools. We also offer a video-enabled web platform to small and medium-sized businesses through www.firststream.com U , also operated by DigitalFX Networks. This service allows streaming video to be sent in any business email communication and also provides small and medium-sized businesses with live broadcasting, podcasting and blogging ability.
 
Our multi-tiered affiliate program drives the growth of our business. Rather than using traditional advertising and marketing methods, we chose to create a multi-tiered affiliate program to develop new customers. Affiliates earn retail commissions on a monthly residual basis by acquiring new retail customers for us. Affiliates earn additional commissions from the sales activities of Affiliates who they personally enroll. These rewards are extended for up to eight generations of Affiliates, meaning that an Affiliate earns a commission on the sales of the Affiliates they have personally enrolled as well as on the sales of second-, third-, and fourth-generation Affiliates, potentially eight levels deep. Our Affiliate compensation plan is structured on a 3x8 matrix, meaning Affiliates can each enroll three Affiliates underneath themselves, before they begin to build their next organizational level. The layers of three continue down a total of eight levels.
 
The market for our services is relatively new and rapidly evolving and growing. Social networking and streaming media are areas of high interest, dominating both the consumer and financial press. According to the Aberdeen Group, the streaming media industry is expected to grow from $2 billion in 2004 to an estimated $12 billion by 2008. We expect that the annual rate of growth of adoption of streaming media tools in 2008 will exceed 2007 as more users become comfortable with this technology, the Internet and personal computer usage.
 
32

 
Social networking sites are also among the fastest growing Web destinations. Other trends in our favor include the dispersion of families and friends around the country and globe who want to visually communicate on a regular basis and the desire of many companies to reduce resources spent on employee air and automobile travel. We differentiate ourselves from other social networking sites by allowing our members to retain copyright and ownership of all the content that they have created.

Revenues decreased $1,578, or 25%, during the quarter ended March 31, 2008 to $4,818 from $6,396 for the corresponding period in 2007. During the first quarter of 2008, the total number of our active customers decreased 17% to approximately 25,000 from approximately 30,000 as of March 31, 2007.
 
Subscription Fee Revenue
 
Recurring revenue from subscription fees for access plans from Affiliates and retail customers decreased in total by $1,073, from $4,527 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 to $13,454 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.
 
Subscription fees from Affiliates decreased $1,116, or 28% to $2,878 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 from $3,994 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. This directly relates to the number of our active affiliates. During the first quarter of 2008, total active Affiliates declined by 28% from approximately 15,700 as of March 31, 2007 to approximately 11,300 as of March 31, 2008.
 
33

 
Subscription fees from retail customers increased slightly by $42 from $533 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 to $617 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. While the number of our active retail customers decreased from approximately 14,200 at March 31, 2007 to approximately 13,600 at March 31, 2008, the increase in revenue is attributable to a shift in customer enrollments to enhanced access plans. We offer retail access plans at $9.95, $29.95, $39.95 and $69-$499 (FirstStream) (U.S.A. prices) per month. During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, more of our customers enrolled in plans at a higher monthly price than in the corresponding period in 2007.
 
Affiliate Business Package Revenue and Upgrades
 
Affiliate business package revenue, which represents new Affiliate kit sales, decreased $601 to $747 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 from $1,348 for the same period in 2007. Although average revenue per kit sold increased from $315 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 to $321 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, total new kits sold decreased from 5,305 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 to 2,486 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.
 
Revenue related to Affiliate upgrades decreased by $244 from $389 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 to $144 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. During the first quarter of 2008, 179 Affiliates elected to upgrade to a higher level once enrolled, down from 368 in the corresponding period of 2007.
 
Electronic Components
 
Revenue from sales of electronic components totaled $346 during the first quarter of March 31, 2008. Our electronics division was launched in the fourth quarter of 2007.
 
Gross Profit
 
Gross Profit decreased $1,613 or 30% in the first quarter of 2008 as compared to the corresponding period of 2007. As a percentage of sales, gross profit decreased from 85% of sales to 79% of sales from the quarter ended March 31, 2007 to the quarter ended March 31, 2008. This decrease relates to the lower margin realized on electronic component sales.
 
Commission Expenses
 
Commission expenses decreased $1,001 to $1,818 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 from $2,819 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. Commission expense as a percent of sales decreased from 44% in 2007 to 38% in 2008. This decrease as a percent of sales during the first quarter of 2008 corresponds to the shift in the composition of sales and the structural differences in the commission program for small business sales which commenced in 2007. In addition, the quarter ended March 31, 2008 included sales of electronic components to businesses, which are non-commissionable.

While down by $47 on an overall basis, other operating expenses increased as a percentage of revenue from 39% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 to 51% in the corresponding period in 2008.
 
We expect that our other operating expenses will decrease as a percentage of net sales through our efforts at controlling overhead expenses. We expect this reduction in operating expenses as a percent of sales will be partially offset by additional legal, administrative and translation costs to establish operations in foreign countries, and product development costs and costs associated with marketing our products through an infomercial platform. We expect to continue our international expansion as well as concentrating on domestic sales.
 
Other expense, net increased by $2,721 to $2,651 of expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 from $70 of income for the corresponding period in 2007. For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, other expense consist of financing costs, net of interest income, associated with the convertible notes of $301, and one-time expenses including the unrealized loss on one of our investments of $439 and the loss on extinguishment of debt related to the restructuring of our convertible notes of $1,920.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our cash requirements are principally for working capital. Historically, we have funded our working capital needs through operations, the sale of equity and debt interests and through additional capital contributions by our former members.
 
35

 
For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, cash used by Operating Activities was ($1,203) and consisted of net loss of ($3,113), increased by non-cash items of $2,780 and decreased by $870 due to changes in other operating assets and liabilities. The latter consisted of decreases in cash provided by accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, other assets, and cash used by accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,047, offset by increases in cash provided by inventory of $177.
 
For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, cash provided by Operating Activities was $90 and consisted of net income of $56, increased by non-cash items of $316 and decreased by $282 due to changes in other operating assets and liabilities. The latter consisted of decreases in cash provided by accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and inventory of $213 and decreases in cash used by accounts payable, accrued expenses and due to affiliate of $69.
 
For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, net cash used in Investing Activities related to the exercise of warrants to acquire an interest in SaySwap of $100. For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, net cash used in Investing Activities of $155 related capital expenditures for computer and video equipment and software licenses.
 
For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, net cash used in Financing Activities included proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $2 offset by the cash repayment of $2,000 related to the restructuring of the convertible notes ($2,000 of restricted cash was also repaid as part of the restructuring of the convertible notes and has been reflected in the Non-Cash Investing and Financing Activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the quarter ended March 31, 2008). For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, net cash provided by Financing Activities included the exercise of stock options and warrants totaling $35.
 
On December 22, 2006, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Kingdon Associates, Kingdon Family Partnership, L.P. and M. Kingdon Offshore Ltd. (the “Kingdon Investors”) pursuant to which we agreed to sell to the Kingdon Investors an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at a per share price of $4.75 for gross proceeds of $4.75 million. The transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement closed on December 27, 2006, with net proceeds to us of approximately $4.36 million, after payment of commissions and expenses, which we used for general working capital purposes.
 
On November 29, 2007, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Portside Growth and Opportunity Fund, Highbridge International, LLC and Iroquois Master Fund, Ltd. pursuant to which we issued an aggregate principal amount of $7.0 million of three-year senior secured convertible notes, and five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 875,000 shares of our common stock, to the Investors. The transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement closed on November 30, 2007, with net proceeds to us of approximately $4.3 million, net of $2 million held in a collateral account for certain letters of credit, after payment of commissions and expenses.
 
This agreement was substantially restructured on March 24, 2008, when we entered into an Amendment and Exchange Agreement with each of the Investors. Under the terms of the Amendment and Exchange Agreements, we agreed, along with the Investors, to restructure the financing consummated under the Securities Purchase Agreement to reduce the amount of the financing to $3,000,000, with the Investors receiving repayment of their pro-rata share of $4,000,000, including $2,000,000 held in a collateral account for certain letters of credit, through the exchange of Existing Notes for a combination of Amended and Restated Notes and the Common Shares, and through the exchange of Existing Warrants for Amended and Restated Warrants. The Amended and Restated Notes have an aggregate principal amount of $3,000,000 and a term of three years commencing from November 30, 2007. The Amended and Restated Warrants have a term of five years commencing from November 30, 2007 and entitle the Investors to initially purchase an aggregate of 750,002 shares of our common stock (subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended and Restated Warrants, including pursuant to economic anti-dilution adjustments). The Amended and Restated Notes carry interest at 7.50% per annum on the unpaid/unconverted principal balance, payable quarterly in cash, and are secured on a senior basis against all of our assets. We are also required to make aggregate monthly principal payments of $25,000, plus accrued interest thereon, beginning July 1, 2008.
 
36

 
The Amended and Restated Notes are convertible into approximately 1,500,000 shares (subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended and Restated Notes, including pursuant to economic anti-dilution adjustments), based on an initial conversion price equal to $2.00 per share (subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended and Restated Notes, including pursuant to economic anti-dilution adjustments), which shall reset on March 26, 2009 to the greater of (i) 105% of the arithmetic average of the dollar weighted average price of our common stock over each of the five (5) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately prior to March 26, 2009 and (ii) $1.00 (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, reverse stock splits or other similar events); provided however, that in no event shall the adjusted conversion price be greater than $3.00 (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, reverse stock splits or other similar events). The Amended and Restated Warrants have an exercise price of $0.959 per share (subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended and Restated Warrants, including pursuant to economic anti-dilution adjustments).
 
The Amended and Restated Notes are convertible at the option of the Investors prior to their maturity. Additionally, beginning November 30, 2008, and provided that we have complied with certain equity conditions, we will be able to require the Investors to convert the Amended and Restated Notes to shares of our common stock if the dollar volume weighted average price of our common stock is $2.75 (subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended and Restated Notes) for twenty (20) out of thirty (30) consecutive trading days.
 
The restructuring transaction closed on March 26, 2008. The remaining proceeds of approximately $2.1 million, after the payment of aggregate transaction expenses, will be used for strategic initiatives and general working capital purposes.
 
Also in connection with the restructuring transaction, we agreed to reimburse the fund manager of one of the Investors for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement, including the actual and reasonable fees and disbursements of the fund manager’s legal counsel, up to an aggregate amount of $20,000.
 
We expect that with our present cash flows, we will have adequate working capital to continue to grow our operations and develop our products, international markets and business plan as anticipated. While there is currently no definitive plan of debt or equity financing, there is no assurance that external financing will be available if needed in the future, or if available, that it would be available on terms acceptable to us.
 
Our business benefits from low capital expenditure requirements. Our capital expenditures for 2008 are expected to primarily relate to enhancements for software applications.
 
Backlog
 
Backlog is only relevant to our affiliate business packages and merchandise sales, as all subscription services are delivered upon enrollment or at monthly renewal. We do not believe that backlog is a meaningful indicator of future business prospects due to the short period of time from affiliate business package and merchandise order to product shipment. Most products are shipped one to two days from the date ordered; therefore, backlog information is not material to an understanding of our business.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
We prepare our Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We consider the following policies to be most critical in understanding the judgments that are involved in preparing our financial statements and the uncertainties that could impact our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
We generate revenue through (i) sales of affiliate business packages and selling aids to Affiliates which include cameras, sales literature, and training videos, (ii) sales of monthly subscriptions to retail customers and Affiliates with a wide spectrum of streaming video content as well as an integrated suite of streaming media applications, including video email, video chat, and live web-casting, (iii) sales of branded apparel and merchandise, (iv) sales of electronic components, and (v) hosting conferences and events.
 
Affiliate Business Packages
 
We recognize revenue from the sales of affiliate business packages and selling aids, including shipping revenue, in accordance with SAB No. 104, “Revenue Recognition ,” when persuasive evidence of an order arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Generally, these criteria are met at the time the product is shipped to our customers when title and risk of loss have transferred. We consider all deliverables to be met at this point. Costs incurred for the shipping and handling of our products are recorded as cost of sales as incurred.
 
38

 
Allowances for subsequent customer returns of affiliate business packages are provided when revenues are recorded. Affiliate business packages returned within the first 30 days of purchase are generally refunded at 90 percent of the sales price. Returned products that were damaged during shipment to the customer are replaced immediately at our expense. On a monthly basis, we calculate a sales allowance which is an estimate of refunds for package returns that are within the 30 day time frame that have not yet been returned or processed. The estimate is based on an analysis of the historical rate of package returns using data from the four months preceding the date of measurement. We have found that this method approximates actual returns for the next 30 days. Increases or decreases to the sales allowance are charged to revenue.
 
Monthly Subscriptions
 
We sell subscriptions for our internet-based studio suite of products through a unique multi-tiered affiliate program using non-related independent distributors, known as Affiliates. We also market subscriptions directly to retail customers who purchase them for their personal use. We recognize revenue when all of the criteria of SAB No. 104 referred to above are met, which is when the subscription is initiated, and then monthly based on an automatic renewal. Our services are provided immediately upon enrollment and continue until cancelled. The recurring subscription can be cancelled at any time in writing. If cancelled within the first 30 days after enrollment, 90% of the fee is refunded, pro-rated for the number of days not used during the month. If a subscription is cancelled after the first month of service, a full refund is issued for the month if the cancellation is received in writing within 48 hours of the renewal billing. No refund is issued if a subscription is cancelled more than 48 hours after the renewal billing for the month. We record an allowance for subscription cancellations based on an analysis of historical data for the four months preceding the date of measurement. We apply a cancellation percentage to subscription revenue that is subject to cancellation within the first 30 days of enrollment or 48 hours of renewal. The accuracy of these estimates is dependent on the rate of future cancellations being consistent with the historical rate. Increases or decreases to the sales allowance are charged to revenue.
 
Apparel and Merchandise
 
We also sell select products to Affiliates to assist them in building their businesses and in selling subscriptions to the portal. These products include cameras, branded apparel and other merchandise. Revenue for these sales, including shipping revenue, are recognized when all the criteria of SAB No. 104 described above are met, which is generally upon shipment.
 
Electronic Components
 
We recognize revenue from the sales of electronic components in accordance with SAB No. 104, when persuasive evidence of an order arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Generally, these criteria are met at the time the product is shipped to customers when title and risk of loss have transferred. Sales of the above products entail no post-customer support or delivery of any other items.
 
Conferences and Events
 
We also earn fees for certain events we host such as sales and training conferences and seminars. Revenue is recognized when all of the criteria of SAB No. 104 described above are met, which is generally after the event has occurred. Amounts collected prior to the event are reflected as deferred revenue, and recognized after the event has occurred.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
Our receivables consist entirely of receivables from credit card companies, arising from the sale of product and services to our customers. We do not record an allowance for doubtful accounts on these receivables, as monies processed by credit card processors are collected 100% within three to five days.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. They are written down, as required, to provide for estimated obsolete or not salable inventory based on assumptions about future demand for our products and market conditions. If future demand and market conditions are less favorable than management’s assumptions, additional inventory write-downs could be required. Likewise, favorable future demand and market conditions could positively impact future operating results if written-off inventory is sold.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
We periodically issue stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. We adopted SFAS No. 123R, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” effective January 1, 2006, and are using the modified prospective method in which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123R that remain unvested on the effective date. We account for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with EITF No. 96-18: “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services,” and EITF 00-18 “Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees” whereby the fair value of the stock compensation is based on the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instrument is complete.
 
We recognize compensation cost for equity-based compensation for all new or modified grants issued after December 31, 2005. In addition, commencing January 1, 2006, we recognized the unvested portion of the grant date fair value of awards issued prior to adoption of SFAS No. 123R based on the fair value previously calculated for disclosure purposes over the remaining vesting period of the outstanding stock options and warrants.
 
We estimate the fair value of stock options pursuant to SFAS No. 123R using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which was developed for use in estimating the fair value of options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. This model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility of the underlying stock and the expected life of stock options. Projected data related to the expected volatility of stock options is based on the average volatility of the trading prices of comparable companies and the expected life of stock options is based upon the average term and vesting schedules of the options. Changes in these subjective assumptions can materially affect the fair value of the estimate, and therefore the existing valuation models do not provide a precise measure of the fair value of our employee stock options.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 141 (R), “Business Combinations” (FAS 141(R)), which establishes accounting principles and disclosure requirements for all transactions in which a company obtains control over another business. Statement 141 (R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51.” SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards that require that the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent be clearly identified, labeled, and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parent’s equity; the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income; and changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently. SFAS No. 160 also requires that any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary be initially measured at fair value when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS No. 160 also sets forth the disclosure requirements to identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS No. 160 applies to all entities that prepare consolidated financial statements, except not-for-profit organizations, but will affect only those entities that have an outstanding noncontrolling interest in one or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. SFAS No. 160 must be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which it is initially applied, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements. The presentation and disclosure requirements are applied retrospectively for all periods presented.
 
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161 (FAS 161), “Disclosures About Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment of FAS 133.” FAS 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. FAS 161 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. We do not expect the implementation of FAS 161 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
We do not believe that the adoption of the above recent pronouncements will have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements or financing activities with special purpose entities.

RISK FACTORS
 
INVESTING IN OUR COMMON STOCK INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS AND ALL OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT BEFORE PURCHASING SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK. IF ANY OF THE FOLLOWING RISKS OCCUR, OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND/OR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COULD BE MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECTED. IN THAT CASE, THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD DECLINE, AND YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR ALL OF YOUR INVESTMENT.
 
RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS
 
Our operating results may fluctuate significantly based on customer acceptance of our products.
 
Management expects that we will experience substantial variations in our net sales and operating results from quarter to quarter due to customer acceptance of our products. We rely on sales by our Affiliates to generate significant revenues for us. If customers don’t accept our products, our sales and revenues would decline, resulting in a reduction in our operating income.
 
Customer interest for our products could also be impacted by the timing of our introduction of new products. If our competitors introduce new products around the same time that we issue new products, and if such competing products are superior to our own, customers’ desire for our products could decrease, resulting in a decrease in our sales and revenues. To the extent that we introduce new products and customers decide not to migrate to our new products from our older products, our revenues could be negatively impacted due to the loss of revenue from those customers. In the event that our newer products do not sell as well as our older products, we could also experience a reduction in our revenues and operating income.
 
As a result of fluctuations in our revenue and operating expenses that may occur, management believes that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not a good indication of our future performance.
 
While we previously achieved an operating profit, we have a history of operating losses and there can be no assurance that we can achieve, maintain or increase profitability.
 
While we previously achieved operating profits, we did not achieve an operating profit for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and we have a history of operating losses. Given the competitive and evolving nature of the industry in which we operate, the technical difficulties we experienced with version 5.0 of the DigitalFX Studio product, and potential technical difficulties we may encounter in the future, we may not be able to achieve, sustain or increase profitability and our failure to do so would adversely affect our business, including our ability to raise additional funds.
 
We may not be able to effectively manage our growth.
 
Our strategy envisions growing our business. To date, our growth has been derived primarily from the growth of our multi-tiered Affiliate base and we intend to continue to employ this growth strategy. To manage anticipated growth, we plan to expand our technology to handle increasing volume on our websites and to expand our administrative and marketing organizations to accommodate larger numbers of our Affiliates. We must also effectively manage our relationships with the increasing number of retail customers/users of our products. We will need to hire, train, supervise and manage new employees. These processes are time consuming and expensive, will increase management responsibilities and will divert management attention. Any growth in or expansion of our business is likely to continue to place a strain on our management and administrative resources, infrastructure and systems. We cannot assure you that we will be able to:
 
42

 
·     
sufficiently and timely improve our technology to handle increasing volume on our websites;
 
·     
expand our administrative and marketing systems effectively, efficiently or in a timely manner to accommodate increasing numbers of our Affiliates; or
 
·     
allocate our human resources optimally.
 
Our inability or failure to manage our growth and expansion effectively could result in strained Affiliate and customer relationships based on dissatisfaction with our service to these groups, our failure to meet demand for our products and/or increased expenses to us to resolve these issues, and a consequent significant decrease in the number of our Affiliates and end users. Any significant decrease in our Affiliate base or the number of retail customers, or the election of new Affiliates to sign on for lower level packages would result in a decrease in revenues.
 
If we do not successfully generate additional products and services, or if such products and services are developed but not successfully commercialized, we could lose revenue opportunities.
 
Currently, our primary business is the sale of our studio suite of products to our Affiliates. Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to expand our product and service offerings. To that end we have engage in product development activities, including activities related to the Set Top Box, to provide additional products and related services to our customers. The process of developing new products is complex and uncertain, and if we fail to accurately predict customers’ changing needs and emerging technological trends our business could be harmed. We must commit significant resources to developing new products before knowing whether our investments will result in products the market will accept. Furthermore, we may not execute successfully on commercializing those products because of errors in product planning or timing, technical hurdles that we fail to overcome in a timely fashion, or a lack of appropriate resources. This could result in competitors providing those solutions before we do and a reduction in net sales and earnings.
 
The success of new products depends on several factors, including proper new product definition, timely completion and introduction of these products, differentiation of new products from those of our competitors, and market acceptance of these products. There can be no assurance that we will successfully identify new product opportunities, develop and bring new products to market in a timely manner, or achieve market acceptance of our products or that products and technologies developed by others will not render our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive.
 
If we continue to experience technological difficulties with our products our Affiliate base could shrink, customer growth could decrease and our business could suffer.
 
In November 2006, we released the 5.0 version of the DigitalFX Studio that included expanded functionality and features. The testing we conducted did not reveal various technical difficulties that remained with the product. In addition, the 5.0 version rolled out in November 2006 did not contain all of the enhancements that our Affiliates were expecting due to development delays. The result was a product with lower than expected functionality and operating difficulties. As a result of these issues, our Affiliate network has not marketed our products and the business opportunity as widely as projected in our plan. While we have taken steps to ameliorate these difficulties, to the extent that we continue to encounter technical difficulties, and to the extent that enhancements to the products we release or new products have technical difficulties, the reputation of our products could suffer, our Affiliate base could shrink and our ability to generate new customers, and consequently revenue, would be negatively impacted. Our ability to grow our business would also be negatively impacted.
 
43

 
Eighty-one percent of our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008 have been derived from sales of our products and services to our Affiliates, and our future success depends on our ability to grow our Affiliate base, as well as to expand our retail subscriptions and initiate advertising revenue.
 
To date, our revenue growth has been derived primarily from the growth of our multi-tiered Affiliate base. Rather than using traditional advertising and sales methods, we chose to create a multi-tiered affiliate program to develop new customers. Affiliates earn retail commissions on a monthly residual basis by acquiring new customers for us. Affiliates earn additional commissions from the sales activities of Affiliates who they personally enroll. These rewards are extended for up to eight generations of Affiliates, meaning that an Affiliate earns a commission on the sales of the Affiliates they have personally enrolled as well as on the sales of second-, third-, and fourth-generation Affiliates, potentially eight levels deep. Our Affiliate compensation plan is structured on a 3x8 matrix, meaning Affiliates can each enroll three Affiliates underneath themselves before they begin to build their next organizational level. The layers of three continue down a total of eight levels.
 
Our success and the planned growth and expansion of our business depend on us achieving greater and broader acceptance of our products and expanding our customer base. There can be no assurance that customers will subscribe to our product offerings or that we will continue to expand our customer base. Though we plan to continue to provide tools to our Affiliates to enable them to generate sales, we cannot guarantee that the time and resources we spend on these efforts will generate a commensurate increase in users of our product offerings. If we are unable to effectively market or expand our product offerings, and if our Affiliate enrollment does not continue to grow, we will be unable to grow and expand our business or implement our business strategy. This could materially impair our ability to increase sales and revenue and materially and adversely affect our margins, which could harm our business and cause our stock price to decline.
 
Our future success depends largely upon our ability to attract and retain a large active base of Affiliates who purchase and sell our products. We cannot give any assurances that the productivity of our Affiliates will continue at their current levels or increase in the future. Several factors affect our ability to attract and retain a significant number of Affiliates, including:
 
·     
on-going motivation of our Affiliates;
 
·     
general economic conditions;
 
·     
significant changes in the amount of commissions paid;
 
·     
public perception and acceptance of direct selling;
 
·     
public perception and acceptance of us and our products;
 
·     
the limited number of people interested in pursuing direct selling as a business;
 
·     
our ability to provide proprietary quality-driven products that the market demands; and
 
·     
competition in recruiting and retaining active Affiliates.
 
44

 
Our ability to conduct business, particularly in international markets, may be affected by political, economic, legal and regulatory risks, which could adversely affect the expansion of our business in those markets.
 
Our ability to capitalize on growth in new international markets and to maintain the current level of operations in our existing international markets is exposed to risks associated with international operations, including:
 
·     
the possibility that a foreign government might ban or severely restrict our business method of selling through our Affiliates, or that local civil unrest, political instability or changes in diplomatic or trade relationships might disrupt our operations in an international market;
 
·     
the possibility that a government authority might impose legal, tax or other financial burdens on Affiliates, as direct sellers, or on our company due, for example, to the structure of our operations in various markets;
 
·     
the possibility that a government authority might challenge the status of our Affiliates as independent contractors or impose employment or social taxes on our Affiliates;
 
·     
our ability to staff and manage international operations;
 
·     
handling the various accounting, tax and legal complexities arising from our international operations; and
 
·     
understanding cultural differences affecting non-U.S. customers.
 
We currently conduct activities in Australia, Canada, Ireland, Mexico, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Germany and Spain. We have not been affected in the past by any of the potential political, legal or regulatory risks identified above. While we do not consider these risks to be material in the foreign countries in which we currently operate, they may be material in other countries where we may expand our business.
 
We are also subject to the risk that due to legislative or regulatory changes in one or more of our present or future markets, our marketing system could be found not to comply with applicable laws and regulations or may be prohibited. Failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could result in the imposition of legal fines and/or penalties which would increase our operating costs. We may also be required to comply with directives or orders from various courts or applicable regulatory bodies to conform to the requirements of new legislation or regulation, which would detract management’s attention from the operation of our business. Further we could be prohibited from distributing products through our marketing system or may be required to modify our marketing system.
 
Our services are priced in local currency. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. We do not currently engage in hedging activities or other actions to decrease fluctuations in operating results due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, although we may do so when the amount of revenue obtained from sources outside of the United States becomes significant.
 
45

 
We also face legal and regulatory risks in the United States, the affect of which could reduce our sales and revenues.
 
Our marketing program is subject to a number of federal and state regulations administered by the Federal Trade Commission and various state agencies in the United States, directed at preventing fraudulent or deceptive schemes by ensuring that product sales are made to consumers of the products and that compensation, recognition, and advancement within the marketing organization are based on the sale of products rather than investment in the organization or other non-sales-related criteria. These regulatory requirements do not include “bright line” rules and are inherently fact-based. Thus, even though we believe that our marketing program complies with applicable federal and state laws or regulations, we are subject to the risk that a governmental agency or court could determine that we have failed to meet these requirements in a particular case. Such an adverse determination could require us to make modifications to our marketing system, increasing our operating expenses. The negative publicity associated with such an adverse determination could also reduce Affiliate and end user demand for our products, which would consequently reduce our sales and revenues.
 
If we incur substantial liability from litigation, complaints, or enforcement actions resulting from misconduct by our multi-level Affiliates, our financial condition could suffer.
 
Although we use various means to address misconduct by our multi-level Affiliates, including maintaining policies and procedures to govern the conduct of our Affiliates and conducting training seminars, it is still difficult to detect and correct all instances of misconduct. Violations of our policies and procedures by our Affiliates could lead to litigation, formal or informal complaints, enforcement actions, and inquiries by various federal, state, or foreign regulatory authorities against us and/or our Affiliates. Litigation, complaints, and enforcement actions involving us and our Affiliates could consume considerable amounts of financial and other corporate resources, which could have a negative impact on our sales, revenue, profitability and growth prospects.
 
We have not been, and are not currently, subject to any material litigation, complaint or enforcement action regarding Affiliate misconduct by any federal, state or foreign regulatory authority.
 
We may be unable to compete successfully against existing and future competitors, which could decrease our revenue and margins and harm our business.
 
The digital communications and social networking industries are highly competitive. Our future growth and financial success depend on our ability to further penetrate and expand our user base, as well as our ability to grow our revenue models. Our competitors possess greater resources than we do and in many cases are owned by companies with broader business lines. For example, we encounter competition in the social networking space from H www.myspace.com H , a company acquired by News Corporation, and we offer video instant messaging services similar to those offered at H www.skype.com H , a subsidiary of eBay, Inc. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our growth rate or increase our market share in our industry at the expense of existing competitors.
 
46

 
We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property rights which would affect our ability to compete in our industry.
 
Our intellectual property relates to the initiation, receipt and management of digital communications. We rely in part on trade secret, unfair competition, trade dress and trademark law to protect our rights to certain aspects of our intellectual property, including our software technologies, domain names and recognized trademarks, all of which we believe are important to the success of our products and our competitive position. There can be no assurance that any of our trademark applications will result in the issuance of a registered trademark, or that any trademark granted will be effective in thwarting competition or be held valid if subsequently challenged. In addition, there can be no assurance that the actions taken by us to protect our proprietary rights will be adequate to prevent imitation of our products, that our proprietary information will not become known to competitors, that we can meaningfully protect our rights to unpatented proprietary information or that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent or better products that do not infringe on our intellectual property rights.
 
We could be required to devote substantial resources to enforce and protect our intellectual property, which could divert our resources from the conduct of our business and result in increased expenses. In addition, an adverse determination in litigation could subject us to the loss of our rights to particular intellectual property, could require us to grant licenses to third parties, could prevent us from selling or using certain aspects of our products or could subject us to substantial liability, any of which could reduce our sales and/or result in the entry of additional competitors into our industry.
 
We may become subject to litigation for infringing the intellectual property rights of others the affect of which could cause us to cease marketing and exploiting our products.
 
Others may initiate claims against us for infringing on their intellectual property rights. We may be subject to costly litigation relating to such infringement claims and we may be required to pay compensatory and punitive damages or license fees if we settle or are found culpable in such litigation. In addition, we may be precluded from offering products that rely on intellectual property that is found to have been infringed by us. We also may be required to cease offering the affected products while a determination as to infringement is considered and could eventually be required to modify our products to cease the infringing activity. These developments could cause a decrease in our operating income and reduce our available cash flow, which could harm our business and cause our stock price to decline.
 
We may have to expend significant resources developing alternative technologies in the event that third party licenses for intellectual property upon which our business depends are not available or are not available on terms acceptable to us.
 
We rely on certain intellectual property licensed from third parties and may be required to license additional products from third parties in the future. There can be no assurance that these third party licenses will be available or will continue to be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. Our inability to enter into and maintain any license necessary for the conduct of our business could result in our expenditure of significant capital to develop or obtain alternate technologies and to integrate such alternate technologies into our current products, or could result in our cessation of the development or sales of products for which such licenses are necessary.
 
We may be unable to attract and retain qualified, experienced, highly skilled personnel, which could adversely affect the implementation of our business plan.
 
Our success depends to a significant degree upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate skilled and qualified personnel. In particular, we are heavily dependent on the continued services of Craig Ellins and the other members of our senior management team. We do not have long-term employment agreements with most members of our senior management team, each of whom may voluntarily terminate his or her employment with us at any time. Following any termination of employment, those employees without employment agreements would not be subject to any non-competition covenants or non-solicitation covenants. The loss of any key employee, including members of our senior management team, could result in a decrease in the efficacy with which we implement our business plan due to the loss of our experienced managers, increased competition in our industry and could negatively impact our sales and marketing operations. Our inability to attract highly skilled personnel with sufficient experience in our industry could result in less innovation in our products and a consequent decrease in our competitive position, and a decrease in the quality of our service to our Affiliates and end users and a consequent decrease in our sales, revenue and operating income.
 
47

 
Our senior management had limited experience managing a publicly traded company prior to serving as our executive officers. This limited experience may divert our management’s attention from operations and harm our business.
 
Our management team had limited experience managing the reporting requirements of the federal securities laws prior to serving as our executive officers. Management will be required to implement appropriate programs and policies to comply with existing disclosure requirements and to respond to increased reporting requirements pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. These increased requirements include the preparation of an internal report which states the responsibility of management for establishing and maintaining an adequate internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting and containing an assessment, as of the end of each fiscal year, of the effectiveness of the internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting. Management’s efforts to familiarize itself with and to implement appropriate procedures to comply with the disclosure requirements of the federal securities laws could divert its attention from the operation of our business. Management’s failure to comply with the disclosure requirements of the federal securities laws could lead to the imposition of fines and penalties by the SEC or the cessation of trading of our common stock on The American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”).
 
If we are not able to respond to the adoption of technological innovation in our industry and changes in consumer demand, our products will cease to be competitive, which could result in a decrease in revenue and harm our business.
 
Our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to keep up with changes in consumer tastes and our continued ability to differentiate our products through implementation of new technologies. We may not, however, be able to successfully do so, and our competitors may be able to implement new technologies at a much lower cost. These types of developments could render our products less competitive and possibly eliminate any differentiating advantage that we might hold at the present time.
 
RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK
 
There is limited trading, and consequently limited liquidity, of our common stock.
 
Prior to August 23, 2007, bid and ask prices for shares of our common stock were quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “DFXN.” On August 23, 2007, our common stock began trading on AMEX. Although our common stock is quoted on AMEX, there is limited trading of our common stock and our common stock is not broadly followed by securities analysts. The average daily volume of our common stock as reported on AMEX for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 was approximately 18,200 shares. Consequently, shareholders may find it difficult to sell shares of our common stock.
 
While we are hopeful that we will command the interest of a greater number of investors and analysts, more active trading of our common stock may never develop or be maintained. More active trading generally results in lower price volatility and more efficient execution of buy and sell orders. The absence of active trading reduces the liquidity of our common stock. As a result of the lack of trading activity, the quoted price for our common stock on AMEX is not necessarily a reliable indicator of its fair market value. Further, if we cease to be traded, holders of our common stock would find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of, our common stock, and the market value of our common stock would likely decline.
 
48

 
The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations, and you may be unable to resell your shares at or above the price at which you purchased such shares.
 
The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that are beyond our control, including announcements of new products or services by our competitors. In addition, the market price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a variety of factors, including:
 
·     
quarterly variations in our revenues and operating expenses;
 
·     
developments in the financial markets, and the worldwide or regional economies;
 
·     
announcements of innovations or new products or services by us or our competitors;
 
·     
fluctuations in merchant credit card interest rates;
 
·     
significant sales of our common stock or other securities in the open market; and
 
·     
changes in accounting principles.
 
In the past, shareholders have often instituted securities class action litigation after periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities. If a shareholder were to file any such class action suit against us, we would incur substantial legal fees and our management’s attention and resources would be diverted from operating our business to respond to the litigation, which could impact our productivity and profitability.
 
Substantial future sales of our common stock in the public market could cause our stock price to fall.
 
Upon the effectiveness of any registration statement that we may file with respect to the resale of shares held by our shareholders, a significant number of our shares of common stock may become eligible for sale. The sale of these shares could depress the market price of our common stock. Sales of a significant number of shares of our common stock in the open market could harm the market price of our common stock. A reduced market price for our shares could make it more difficult to raise funds through future offerings of common stock.
 
On November 30, 2007, upon the expiration of the lock up agreements restricting sales by the selling shareholders listed in the prospectus included on the post-effective amendment to the registration statement on Form SB-2 we filed with the SEC on May 22, 2007, additional shares of our common stock became eligible for unrestricted resale. As additional shares of our common stock become available for resale in the open market (including shares issued upon the exercise of our outstanding options and warrants), the supply of our publicly traded shares will increase, which could decrease its price.
 
Some of our shares may also be offered from time to time in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, and these sales may have a depressive effect on the market price of our shares. In general, a non-affiliate who has held restricted shares for a period of six months may sell an unrestricted number of shares of our common stock into the market.
 
49

 
The sale of securities by us in any equity or debt financing could result in dilution to our existing shareholders and have a material adverse effect on our earnings.
 
Any sale of common stock by us in a future private placement offering could result in dilution to the existing shareholders as a direct result of our issuance of additional shares of our capital stock. In addition, our business strategy may include expansion through internal growth, by acquiring complementary businesses, by acquiring or licensing additional brands, or by establishing strategic relationships with targeted customers and suppliers. In order to do so, or to finance the cost of our other activities, we may issue additional equity securities that could dilute our shareholders’ stock ownership. We may also assume additional debt and incur impairment losses related to goodwill and other tangible assets if we acquire another company and this could negatively impact our earnings and results of operations.
 
We have not paid dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future, and any return on investment may be limited to potential future appreciation on the value of our common stock.
 
We currently intend to retain any future earnings to support the development and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including without limitation, our financial condition, operating results, cash needs, growth plans and the terms of any credit agreements that we may be a party to at the time. To the extent we do not pay dividends, our stock may be less valuable because a return on investment will only occur if and to the extent our stock price appreciates, which may never occur. In addition, investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation as the only way to realize their investment, and if the price of our stock does not appreciate, then there will be no return on investment. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.
 
Our officers, directors and principal shareholders, controlling approximately 69% of our outstanding common stock, can exert significant influence over us and may make decisions that are not in the best interests of all shareholders.
 
Our officers, directors and principal shareholders collectively control approximately 69% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, these shareholders will be able to affect the outcome of, or exert significant influence over, all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election and removal of directors and any change in control. In particular, this concentration of ownership of our common stock could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us or otherwise discouraging or preventing a potential acquirer from attempting to obtain control of us. This, in turn, could have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock. It could also prevent our shareholders from realizing a premium over the market prices for their shares of common stock. Moreover, the interests of this concentration of ownership may not always coincide with our interests or the interests of other shareholders, and accordingly, they could cause us to enter into transactions or agreements that we would not otherwise consider.
 
Anti-takeover provisions may limit the ability of another party to acquire us, which could cause our stock price to decline.
 
Our articles of incorporation, as amended, our bylaws and Florida law contain provisions that could discourage, delay or prevent a third party from acquiring us, even if doing so may be beneficial to our shareholders. In addition, these provisions could limit the price investors would be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.

Controls And Procedures

Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
 
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.
Legal Proceedings
 
Except as described below, we are not involved in any legal proceedings that require disclosure in this report.
 
From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. Except as is described below, we are not currently party to any legal proceedings, the adverse outcome of which, in management’s opinion, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.
 
On February 7, 2007, VMdirect and DigitalFX Solutions jointly filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles against a former Affiliate of VMdirect alleging a number of complaints including unfair business practice, misappropriation of trade secrets, slander, intentional interference with contractual relationship, intentional interference with prospective economic advantage and breach of contract, and seeking compensatory and punitive damages in amounts to be proved at trial, injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees and costs. The defendant became an Affiliate of VMdirect in May 2006 and agreed to adhere to VMdirect’s Code of Ethics for Affiliates. Upon signing up as an Affiliate, defendant represented that he was capable of bringing a substantial number of new Affiliates to VMdirect, and in reliance on this representation, VMdirect agreed to provide certain privileges to defendant including posting of training materials on VMdirect’s website. VMdirect also agreed to work with defendant to develop training materials. Although VMdirect paid for all of the costs of developing the materials and its personnel actively participated in the development of such materials, defendant demanded aggregate compensation of $300,000 for creating the training and motivational materials after they were completed. After VMdirect did not pay this fee to defendant, defendant requested that VMdirect stop using the materials, began disparaging VMdirect and its officers, and engaged in cross-recruiting Affiliates from other VMdirect networks, a practice prohibited by VMdirect’s Code of Ethics for its Affiliates. VMdirect then terminated defendant’s distribution network and believes that defendant continues to use VMdirect’s proprietary trade secrets to recruit Affiliates to join other network marketing companies that compete with VMdirect.
 
On March 6, 2007, we, along with VMdirect and DigitalFX Solutions, were served with a cross complaint for damages filed in the Superior Court of California for the County of Los Angeles, by this same former Affiliate for alleged breach of contract, fraud-intentional misrepresentation, fraud-intentional concealment/omission, fraud-false promises, negligent misrepresentation and infringement of the rights of publicity and privacy, and seeking general, exemplary and punitive damages in amounts to be determined at trial and an order enjoining our use of his name, image, photograph and likeness for any purpose without his written consent. This former Affiliate alleges that the officers of VMdirect agreed to grant him 60,000 shares of our common stock, agreed to pay him a percentage of sales to small businesses and enterprises in connection with his creation of certain training materials, agreed to pay for the costs of all training materials created by him and agreed that all training materials which contained his likeness would remain his intellectual property. This former Affiliate also alleges that it was expressly agreed that a copy of such materials would be made available to him for posting as promotional materials on his own website and that his consent for VMdirect to use his image and likeness on its websites would be revocable at any time.
 
On March 6, 2007, legal counsel for the same former Affiliate filed a Notice of Removal of Action with the United States District Court of the Central District of California seeking to remove the case from the Superior Court of California to the United States District Court. Our legal counsel filed a motion to remand the case back to the Superior Court of California which motion was granted.

On August 31, 2007, the former Affiliate unsuccessfully applied for a temporary restraining order (“TRO”) to enjoin VMdirect from using on its website the training materials featuring the former Affiliate. As a result of this unsuccessful application, the Court ordered VMdirect and DigitalFX Solutions to qualify to do business in California if they wished to proceed with their complaint against the former Affiliate. On December 10, 2007, DigitalFX Solutions qualified to do business in California. On December 14, 2007, VMdirect qualified to do business in California. VMdirect and DigitalFX Solutions complied with the Court order for the purpose of pursuing their litigation against the former Affiliate.
 
On April 16, 2008 the Court temporarily stayed all discovery and ordered the appointment of a discovery referee. This action was in response to motions to compel further discovery responses which were filed by the former Affiliate our company and our subsidiaries. We also filed a motion for protective order against the former Affiliate because of his abusive litigation tactics. The appointment of this discovery referee will cause us to incur additional cost in prosecuting and defending this case.
 
Management believes there exists no basis for the former Affiliate's claims and intends to defend this matter vigorously. In the event our management’s assessment of the case is incorrect, or the former Affiliate actually obtains a favorable judgment for the claimed damages, the economic impact on us would be insignificant and would not materially affect our operations.
