Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

First Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreements

        In connection with our acquisition of Verizon’s TRS division and Hands On Video Relay Services, Inc. on January 10, 2008, we entered intothe following:(i) the Credit Agreement by and among GoAmerica, as borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto, the letter of credit issuers from time to time party thereto, Churchill Financial LLC, as administrative agent, and Ableco Finance LLC, as collateral agent (the “Churchill Credit Agreement”), and (ii) the Second Lien Credit Agreementby andamong GoAmerica, as borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Clearlake Capital Group, L.P., as administrative agent (the “Second Lien Agreement”). The lenders required us to agree in the loan agreements, among other things, that within 90 days after the closings, we would amend our certificate of incorporation to change the earliest date on which our Series A Preferred Stock is subject to redemption by the holder to a date that is at least one year after the Scheduled Term Loan Maturity Date (the “COI Amendment”).

        On May 2, 2008, the parties to the Churchill Agreement entered into a First Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement, which extended the 90-day deadline for the completion of the COI Amendment to 180 days and waived any Event of Default resulting from GoAmerica’s failure to timely complete the COI Amendment.

        On May 1, 2008, the parties to the Second Lien Agreement entered into a First Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement which extended the 90-day deadline for the completion of the COI Amendment to 180 days and waived any Event of Default resulting from GoAmerica’s failure to timely complete the COI Amendment.

        The 180-day period is intended to allow us to solicit and obtain the necessary stockholder consents for the COI Amendment at our annual stockholder meeting in June, in lieu of holding a separate, prior stockholder meeting to solicit and obtain such consent.

Item 8.01. Other Matters.

        On May 7, 2008, GoAmerica issued a press release announcing that its Board of Directors has called for the annual stockholder meeting to be held on June 25, 2008, at such time and place to be determined by the officers of the Company, and has set the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive a notice of the annual meeting and to vote at the meeting to be the close of business on May 23, 2008.
