CONSOLIDATED EBITDA
 
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock compensation and payments, non-cash charges that do not result in future cash obligations, any extraordinary or non recurring gains (losses) and any non-cash transactions (Consolidated EBITDA) is not intended to present a measure of performance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Nor should Consolidated EBITDA be considered as an alternative to statements of cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Consolidated EBITDA is included herein as means to measure operating performance that financial analysts, lenders, investors and other interested parties find to be a useful tool for analyzing companies.
 
The definition of Consolidated EBITDA is defined in the senior secured convertible notes as a measurement for meeting the notes covenant requirements. For the three months ended September 30, 2007, the Consolidated EBITDA was required to be no less than a negative $3,500 in order for the Company to be compliant with covenant requirements of the notes. The Company was in compliance with the required covenant at September 30, 2007.
