EXPLANATORY NOTES
This Amendment No. 2 to the Annual Report on Form 10-Q (the Report) for the fiscal quarter ended
June 30, 2009 is filed for the purpose of amending the Section 302 Certifications, filed as
Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to the original Report.
There was a mistake in the payroll accrual account that resulted in a positive $341,509 dating back
to April 2009. The accrual error was caused and dated by duplicate entries to that accrual dating
from and solely to April 2009 through June 30, 2009. This also has the result of reducing the loss
from Quarter ending 30th June 2009 from $428,975 to $192,691. This reduced accrued
liabilities from $1,830,263 to $1,593,979 and total stockholders deficit from 2,342,832 to
$2,106,548 from Quarter ending 30th June 2009.
This entry has been reversed for the quarter ending September 30, 2009 and re-entered in the
quarter ending June 30, 2009. Both these dated statements are being amended and re-issued.
ASC FASB 250-10-50-7 Disclosure

NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Cistera Networks, Inc. (Cistera
the Company or we) and its wholly-owned subsidiary have been prepared pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). All significant intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the unaudited
consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited
consolidated financial statements, and reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal,
recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with US GAAP. The results of
operations for interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for
the full year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 (the 2009 10-K).
Significant Accounting Policies
The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. The accounting policies
most fundamental to understanding our financial statements are those relating to recognition of
revenue, our use of estimates and the accounting for convertible debt and warrants. For a detailed
discussion on the application of these accounting policies, see Note 2 to our audited consolidated
financial statements contained in our 2009 10-K.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial LiabilitiesIncluding an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115"(SFAS 159). SFAS 159
permits companies to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at
specified election dates. Unrealized gains and losses on these items will be reported in earnings
at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option may be applied instrument by instrument
(with a few exceptions), is irrevocable and is applied only to entire instruments and not to
portions of instruments. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.
We intend to adopt the standard beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 and do not
believe it will have a material impact.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-Controlling Interests in Consolidated
Financial Statements (SFAS 160), which requires all entities to report non-controlling (minority
interests) in subsidiaries with equity in the consolidated financial statements, but separate from
the parent stockholders equity. We intend to adopt the standard beginning in the first quarter of
fiscal year 2010 and do not believe it will have a material impact.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS
141R), which replaces FASB Statement No. 141. SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements
for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets
acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill
acquired. The Statement also establishes disclosure requirements that will enable users to evaluate
the nature and financial effects of the business combination. We intend to adopt the standard
beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 and do not believe it will have a material
impact.

Loss per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding.
Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming exercise or conversion
of all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. The Company had approximately 6.6 million
and 6.5 million potentially dilutive common stock equivalents (in the form of stock options and
stock purchase warrants) outstanding as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These potentially
dilutive common stock equivalents have been excluded from the diluted share calculations for the
three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, as they were anti-dilutive as a result of
the net losses incurred for those periods. Accordingly, basic shares equal diluted shares for all
periods presented.

Accounts receivable and concentration of credit risk
The Company has no significant off-balance sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign
exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.
The Company is subject to credit risk from accounts receivable with its customers. The Companys
accounts receivable are due from both governmental and commercial entities. Credit is extended
based on evaluation of the customers financial condition and, generally, collateral is not
required. Accounts receivable are generally due within 30 to 60 days and are stated at amounts due
from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the
contractual payment terms are considered past due.
The Company assesses potential reserves against its accounts receivable by considering a number of
factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, the Companys
previous loss history, the customers current ability to pay their obligations to the Company and
economic and industry conditions. Based on these factors, the Company has concluded that an
allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009 is not required.
As of June 30, 2009, the Company receives approximately 34% of its gross revenues from its top
three re-sellers. This represents a decrease in concentration of business from the 37% reported
for the year ended March 31, 2009.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made in the fiscal year 2009 financial statements to conform to
the fiscal year 2010 presentation.
NOTE 2 FINANCIAL CONDITION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with US GAAP
(except with regard to omission of certain disclosures within interim financial statements, as
permitted by the SEC), which contemplate our continuation as a going concern and do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts
and classification of liabilities that might be necessary if we were unable to continue as a going
concern. However, the report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our
consolidated financial statements, as of and for the year ended March 31, 2009, contains an
explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going
concern. The going concern explanatory paragraph resulted from, among other things, the
substantial losses from operations we have incurred since inception, our liquidity position and the
net loss of $4.6 million for the year ended March 31, 2009, which included non-cash charges of $1.4
million related to amortization of discounts associated with our sale and issuance of Senior
Unsecured Convertible Promissory Notes in the fiscal years 2007 and 2008 (the PP2 Notes) and
negative working capital (current liabilities in excess of current assets) of $3.0 million as of
March 31, 2009. In addition, we had a net loss of $192,691 for the three months ended June 30,
2009. Also, as of June 30, 2009, we have negative working capital (current liabilities in excess
of current assets) of $4.0 million.
Accordingly, as of June 30, 2009, the recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset
amounts is dependent on our continuing operations, which in turn is dependent on our ability to
maintain our current financing arrangements and our ability to become profitable in our future
operations through generating higher revenues or lowering operating costs, or a combination of the
two. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These
consolidated financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if we were
unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company maintains a factoring facility with Allied Capital Partners, L.P. (Allied) for up to
$1,500,000 of the Companys customer accounts receivable. The facility allows for an advance rate
up to 85.88% and initial factoring charges are 1.75% of the total accounts receivable balance. An
additional funding agreement became effective in

November of 2008 allowing for the factoring of support renewals at an advance rate of 50.88% and
initial factoring charges of 1.75% of the total accounts receivable balance. Advances made by
Allied are collateralized by the Companys accounts receivable, chattel paper, general intangibles,
supporting obligations, inventory and proceeds thereof. The term of the current agreement is for a
period of two years with an automatic one-year renewal thereafter. Advances under the factoring
facility at June 30, 2009 were $112,205 and are netted against total accounts receivable on the
Consolidated Balance Sheet.
As of December 30, 2008, we were in default on approximately $148,000 of principal and accrued
interest on certain PP2 Notes (the December PP2 Notes). As of that date, we began to accrue
interest on the December PP2 Notes at a default rate of 18% per annum, which is the maximum
allowable rate as stipulated under the PP2 Note purchase agreement. We will need to renegotiate
the payment or conversion of the principal and interest due on all of the PP2 Notes, of which
approximately $1.1 million is due in April 2009, or raise additional capital, or a combination of
the two. If we need to raise additional capital it could be in the form of equity or debt, or a
combination of the two. The capital markets are extremely challenging at this time and there can be
no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funds and, if so, on favorable terms
or that the cost savings or required new capital will be sufficient. We are also actively
exploring other strategic alternatives.
NOTE 3
DEBT
As of June 30, 2009, the Company had $976,426 of gross principal, accrued interest of $283,345 and
accrued liquidated damages of $177,024 outstanding on its PP1 Notes and PP2 Notes. The PP1 Notes
and the PP2 Notes due in April 2009 (the April PP2 Notes) bear interest at an annual rate of 18%,
compounded quarterly. The December PP2 Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 18%, compounded
quarterly.
PP1 Notes and Warrants
The outstanding principal and accrued interest are convertible into shares of common stock at a
conversion rate equal to the lesser of (a) $1.30 per share, or (b) a 25% discount to the average
closing bid price of the Companys common stock for the five days including and immediately
preceding the interest compounding date, provided that in no event shall the conversion price per
share be less than $1.00 per share. The PP1 Notes may be converted, in whole or in part, at the
option of the PP1 Note holder on any interest compounding date. The PP1 Notes converted in
December 2005 were converted at $1.00 per share.
The PP1 Warrants have a term of five years and are exercisable at an exercise price of $1.30 per
share. Subject to an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares of common
stock issuable upon exercise of the PP1 Warrants, the Company may, upon thirty days prior written
notice, redeem the PP1 Warrants for $0.10 per share, in whole or in part, if our common stock

days.
PP2 Notes and Warrants

of the PP2 Note holder on any interest compounding date.
The Company may prepay the PP2 Notes in whole or in part, upon thirty days prior written notice to
note holders; provided that partial prepayments may be made only in increments of $10,000 and,
provided further, that the PP2 Note holders may convert the amount of the proposed prepayment into
shares of our common stock at any time.
The PP2 Warrants have a term of five years and are exercisable at an exercise price of $1.00 per
share. Subject to an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares of common
stock issuable upon exercise of the PP2 Warrants, the Company may, upon thirty days prior written
notice, redeem the PP2 Warrants for $0.10 per share, in whole or in part, if our common stock
closes with a bid price of at least $3.50 for any ten (10) out of fifteen (15) consecutive trading
days.

For the three months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recorded $1,120,997 of amortization of debt
discounts associated with the PP2 Notes.
STIIP
Under the STIIP, which commenced on June 9, 2008, the Company temporarily modified the terms of its
outstanding PP1 Notes, PP2 Notes, PP1 Warrants and PP2 Warrants. During the period beginning June
9, 2008 through June 24, 2008 (the Conversion Period), the conversion prices of the PP1 Notes and
PP2 Notes, which were $1.00 and $0.75 per share, respectively, were reduced to $0.53 per share. In
addition, the exercise prices for the PP1 Warrants and the PP2 Warrants, which were $1.30 and $1.00
per share, respectively, were reduced to $0.40 per share. Under the STIIP, certain PP2 Note
holders converted $3,240,290, comprised of $2,470,156 in principal and $770,134 in accrued interest
and liquidated damages into approximately 6.2 million shares of the Companys common stock at the
reduced conversion price.
Also under the STIIP, certain PP1 and PP2 Warrant holders exercised approximately 2.3 million PP1
and PP2 Warrants at an exercise price of $0.40 per share. All PP1 and PP2 Warrant holders who
exercised their warrants also received three additional warrants (the Bonus Warrants) for every
ten warrants exercised. The Bonus Warrants were exercisable during the Conversion Period at an
exercise price of $0.30 per share, and if not exercised on or before such date, the exercise price
for such Bonus Warrants was increased to $0.60 per share. A total of 507,675 Bonus Warrants were
exercised at $0.30 per share. The bonus warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model (Black-Scholes model) and a charge and a corresponding credit to additional paid-in
capital were recorded for the June 30, 2008 and September 30, 2008 quarters in the amounts of
$36,125 and $131,631, respectively. The bonus warrants expire on April 6, 2012. The total cash
proceeds received from the exercises of the PP1, PP2 and Bonus Warrants was approximately $844,000.
The Company accounted for the reduction in the conversion prices of the PP2 Notes under the STIIP
in accordance with FASB Statement No. 84, Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt an amendment of
APB Opinion No. 26 (SFAS 84). Accordingly, the Company calculated and recorded an inducement
charge and a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital in the June 30, 2008 quarter in the
amount of $931,893 for the fair value of common stock issued based on the reduced price in excess
of the fair value of the common stock issuable pursuant to the original conversion price.
The Company accounted for the reduction in the exercise price of the PP1 and PP2 Warrants exercised
under the STIIP in accordance with the guidance in SFAS 123(R), Share-based payment (SFAS 123R)
and FASB Staff Position No. FSP FAS 123(R)-6, Technical Corrections of FASB Statement No. 123(R)
for a modification due to a short-term inducement. Accordingly, the Company recorded a charge and
a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital in the June 30, 2008 quarter in the amount of
$202,743 for the difference between the fair value of the PP1 and PP2 Warrants immediately before
and after the modification multiplied by the number of PP1 and PP2 Warrants that were exercised
during the Conversion Period of the STIIP. The fair value of the PP1 and PP2 Warrants were
calculated using the Black-Scholes model. The total non-cash charge recorded for the inducement on
the PP2 Notes and the reduction in exercise price on the PP1 and PP2 Warrants was $1,134,216.

Registration Payment Arrangements
Effective April 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Staff Position No. EITF 00-19-2 Accounting for
Registration Payment Arrangements (FSP EITF 00-19-2), which was applicable to the accounting for
the liquidated damages on the PP2 Notes. Upon adoption, the Company recorded a cumulative effect
of an accounting change entry (i.e., a charge to the beginning balance of the accumulated deficit)
as of April 1, 2007 for the combination of: 1) the reclassification of the Warrants from
derivative liabilities to equity securities (based on the criteria as outlined under EITF 00-19
Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a
Companys Own Stock (EITF 00-19)), and 2) a contingent liability for probable future payment of
liquidated damages (based on the Companys best estimate as of the date of adoption, which was
through March 31, 2008). The amount of the contingent liability recorded was approximately
$289,000. The difference between the Warrants as measured on the date of adoption of FSP EITF
00-19 and their original recorded value was approximately $466,000, and, as stated above, was
included in the charge to the beginning balance of the accumulated deficit. The total cumulative
effect of this accounting change was $755,000.
On April 5, 2007, the Company closed the balance of its PP2 offering and, in accordance with FSP
EITF 00-19-2, recorded a contingent liability and related charge to the consolidated Statement of
Operations for estimated liquidated damages related to this funding through March 31, 2008. The
amount recorded was $251,176.
As of March 31, 2008, the Company estimated and accrued $671,342 related to liquidated damages
related to the PP2 Notes and concluded that this amount was the maximum pay-out required. Under
the STIIP, certain PP2 Note holders, comprising approximately 70% of the original principal of PP2
Notes, converted their outstanding PP2 Notes at a reduced price of $0.53. On June 30, 2008, the
Company executed an agreement with the institutional investor in the PP2 offering that had the
contractual right to liquidated damages. In exchange for the waiver from the investor, the Company
issued to the investor 58,777 shares of its common stock. The agreement terminated any assessment
of liquidated damages beyond June 24, 2008. For the three months ended June 30, 2008, the Company
recorded a charge and credit to additional paid-in capital for the fair value of these shares
issued in the amount of $22,041.
The table below summarizes the cumulative effect entry recorded as of April 1, 2007 for the
adoption of FSP EITF 00-19-2:

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors are defendants in
litigation pending in Dallas, Texas, styled KINGDON R. HUGHES VS. GREGORY T. ROYAL, CYNTHIA A.
GARR, JAMES T. MILLER, JR., CHARLES STIDHAM, CNH HOLDINGS COMPANY D/B/A CISTERA NETWORKS AND
XBRIDGE SOFTWARE, INC.; Cause No. DV05-0600-G; G-134th District Court, Dallas County, Texas. The
plaintiff has alleged a number of complaints against the defendants, including breach of fiduciary
duty, misappropriation of corporate opportunities, fraud, fraudulent inducement, breach of
contract, tortuous interference with contract, fraudulent transfer, and shareholder oppression
arising in connection with the license agreement between the Company and XBridge in May 2003 and
the acquisition of XBridge by the Company in May 2005. The parties held a mediation conference in
April 2006 and have come to an understanding with respect to the principal elements of a potential
settlement. The Company is currently in the process of negotiating definitive settlement
agreements. In accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies (SFAS 5), we recorded a
contingent liability in the amount of $650,000 as of March 31, 2008 related to the outstanding
litigation. As of December 31, 2008, the Company believes that this amount represents the best
estimate of a potential settlement.
The Company is a defendant in a breach-of-contract claim filed on behalf of Richard McDowell, the
Companys former Chief Financial Officer, who was terminated from the Company on July 14, 2008.
Mr. McDowell is demanding severance under his employment agreement with the Company. On August 22,
2008, the Company through its legal counsel notified Mr. McDowells attorney that it categorically
denied Mr. McDowells claim for severance under the employment agreement. On September 23, 2008,
the Company received notice that Mr. McDowell had filed claims against it with the American
Arbitration Association in accordance with the employment agreement. On October 17, 2008, the
Company through its legal counsel filed an answer with the American Arbitration Association that
categorically denied Mr. McDowells claims. The Company also asserted counterclaims against Mr.
McDowell. An arbitrator hearing was conducted during the period July 7 and July 8, 2009 and the
Company is awaiting a decision by the arbitrator as to the final determination of this case.

NOTE 5 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On April 5, 2007, the Company issued PP2 Notes to the Companys President, CEO and director, Derek
Downs, and the Companys Chief Technology Officer and director, Greg Royal for accrued, but unpaid
base salary due to each as of this date. On June 24, 2008, both individuals converted their PP2
notes plus accrued interest as part of the STIIP. Mr. Downs and Mr. Royal converted $38,940 and
$91,871, respectively into 73,471 and 173,341 shares of our common stock at a conversion price of
$0.53. After this conversion, the Company no longer had any indebtedness with either Mr. Downs or
Mr. Royal.
On November 1, 2008, the Company issued to an employee 100,000 common stock purchase warrants that
were immediately exercisable at $0.40 per share and have a five-year life. The Company calculated
the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes model and recorded a charge in the amount
$22,728 for the December 2008 quarter.
On December 4, 2008, an employee advanced the Company $25,000 for the period through December 31,
2008. In consideration for this advance, the Company issued to the employee 25,000 common stock
purchase warrants that were immediately exercisable at $0.40 per share and have a five-year life.
The Company calculated the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes model and recorded a
charge in the amount $4,100 for the December 2008 quarter. As of June 30, 2009, the entire
obligation has been repaid.
NOTE 6 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Reverse/Forward Split
On the 25th June 2009, the Company filed a an Information Statement to inform
the stockholders of (i) the approval on June 9, 2009 of resolutions by the Board of Directors
proposing amendments to the Articles of Incorporation to effect a 3 for 1 reverse stock split of
our common stock followed immediately by a 3 for 1 forward stock split of the common stock (the
Reverse/Forward Stock Split), and (ii) receipt of written consents dated June 9, 2009, approving
such amendment by stockholders holding 65.6% of the voting power of all of our stockholders
entitled to vote on the matter as of June 9, 2009. As a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split,
stockholders owning fewer than 3 shares of our common stock will be cashed out at a price of $.14
per share, and the holdings of all other stockholders will remain unchanged.
When the Reverse/Forward Stock Split becomes effective, the Company will have fewer than 300
stockholders of record, and will be eligible to cease filing periodic reports with the Commission,
and the Company intends to cease public registration and terminate the listing of our Common Stock
on the OTC Bulletin Board. Once the Company ceases public registration and terminates the listing
of our Common Stock, the Company will not be required to provide our Stockholders with periodic or
other reports regarding the Company, although they intend to continue to provide similar
information through the Pink Sheets News Service.
The Company estimates the cost of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, to be approximately $25,800.
However, if on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the Reverse/Forward Stock
Split, they believe that the cash required to pay for the Reverse/Forward Stock Split exceeds
the reasonable estimate of the amount of cash necessary to consummate the Reverse/Forward Split,
they reserve the right not to effect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. The Reverse/Forward Stock Split has been submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission for
proposal and comment. If the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is approved by the SEC, the transaction
will become complete 20 days after the shareholders have been notified by letter. Currently,
Cistera Networks, Inc. has 17,423,410 shares outstanding. If the transaction is approved and
completed, 477 shares will be repurchased at $0.14 per share or $66.78, leaving 17,422,933 shares
outstanding.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND RECENT BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS
For the first quarter ending June 30, 2009, we saw a 43% decrease in revenues as compared to the
same quarter in the prior year. We experienced a drop in revenue on a sequential quarter basis as a
result of the deteriorating global economic situation. High margin recurring revenue from support
and maintenance continues to become a more significant piece of our revenues as our installed base
grows. We continue to see a challenging economic environment. Although there have of late seen some
reduction in the rate of decline in the economy, we do not expect to see a recovery in capital
spending in the near future.
Our business model relies upon the leverage of a network of strong reseller partners to sell our
products. This program allows us to effectively apply our resources to focus on the partners that
are significant generators of revenue. In conjunction with CollaborNET, we have conducted joint
business planning sessions, executed joint marketing campaigns and continued to certify partner
installation engineers.
Even in a period of economic constraints, we recognize the importance of continuing and extending
our R&D efforts to ensure that our products offer features and functionality specific to industry
requirements and that add measurable value for our customers. We believe that the enhanced safety
benefits, productivity gains and increased efficiencies delivered by our products will help in
attracting customers pressured to accomplish more with fewer people and shrinking budgets.
We continued to make good penetration into the public sector markets where our solutions are
increasingly well received as the answer to critical communication challenges. In light of the
significant downturn in the U.S. economy, we are carefully monitoring our sales pipeline and have
refocused our solutions selling efforts onto our top reseller relationships. We expect that market
segments, such as government, and education will be more resilient to the current economic
conditions, primarily due to continued demand for event alerting and notification solutions for
public safety and campus safety requirements. With the demographics of an aging population,
healthcare is also an industry that is continuing to grow.
On the 14th May 2009, the company announced the release of version 1.9 of the Cistera
Convergence Server. Cistera ConvergenceServer Version 1.9 is the result of over five years of work
on enterprise application platforms for Unified Communications and is the most advanced solution
set available today.
We remain focused on driving the Company to profitability, and believe our emphasis on leveraging
our reseller partner relationships will lead to the continued pipeline growth, completed
installations and increased average deal size that will be necessary to achieve that goal. Our
program of certifying partner installation engineers is a key piece of this effort, as it will
allow us to significantly extend our reach while providing partners with enhanced customer
interaction. We believe that this focus will continue the trending of our product mix toward the
higher

Table of Contents
Revenue
Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 decreased $342,593 or approximately 43% from the
comparable prior year quarter primarily due to the deteriorating global economic environment.
Revenue from professional services decreased 41% from the prior year quarter primarily due to the
timing of completion of certain project service engagements and as a result of a change of
certifying reseller partners to handle installations in lieu of performing them ourselves, as well
as decreased sales activity.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 decreased $304,608 or approximately 51% from the
comparable prior year quarter primarily due to decrease revenue offset by overall lower gross
margin. Gross margin decreased in the June 2009 quarter as compared to the June 2008 quarter from
74% from 63%. This decrease was primarily due to product mix on convergence solutions offset by
higher margins on support and maintenance as a result of the higher installed base.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, decreased from $1,033,340 in the June
2008 quarter to $302,453 in the June 2009 quarter, a decrease of $730,887 or approximately 70%.
During this period, the company engaged in a significant reduction in the number of employees and a
major reduction in overhead costs. The expenses for this quarter include one month of pre-restructuring overhead and employee costs.
The decrease was primarily attributable to: 1) a decrease in overall headcount 2) a decrease in
sales and marketing tradeshow expenses; and 3) a decrease in professional fees.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the June 2009 quarter decreased $17,127 from the June 2008 quarter primarily
due to the decrease in accrued interest on the PP2 Notes due to the decrease in the PP2 Notes as a
result of the conversions under our Short Term Investment Incentive Plan (the STIIP).
Offsetting the overall interest expense decrease was an increase in the interest rate on the PP1
and PP2 Notes due to a default on the notes.
Amortization of Debt Discount
The amortization of debt discount on our PP2 Notes in the June 2009 quarter decreased $1,120,997
from the June 2008 quarter primarily as a result of the amortization of the debt discount was
completed recorded at March 31, 2009. As required under GAAP, all unamortized debt discount
outstanding at the date of the conversion was expensed. See further discussion of the STIIP under
Liquidity under this Item.
Charge for Inducements Related to Stock Issued to Convertible Note Holders
As part of the STIIP, we lowered the conversion price of our PP2 Notes and the exercise price of
both our PP1 and PP2 Warrants. As required under US GAAP, we recorded non-cash charges for the
June 2008 quarter in the amounts of $1,192,813 related to these inducements. See further
discussion of the STIIP under Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Liquidated Damages
The decrease in the charge for liquidated damages from the three months ended June 2009 was
primarily the result of the settlement of future liquidated damages as of June 24, 2008. As of
June 30, 2008, we recorded an adjustment to the amount of accrued liquidated damages for PP2 Note
holders who did not convert their notes in the STIIP. As part of an agreement dated June 30, 2008
with the investor in the PP2 offering that had the contractual right to liquidated damages, we
issued to the investor 58,777 shares of our common stock in exchange for a waiver on future
liquidated damages after June 24, 2008. The agreement terminated any assessment of liquidated
damages beyond June 24, 2008.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements contained in this report have been prepared in
conformity with US GAAP (except with regard to omission of certain disclosures within interim
financial statements, as permitted by the SEC), which contemplate our continuation as a going
concern and do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary if we
were unable to continue as a going concern. However, the report of our independent registered
public accounting firm on our consolidated financial statements, as of and for the year ended March
31, 2009, contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to
continue as a going concern. The going concern explanatory paragraph resulted from, among other
things, the substantial losses from operations we have incurred since inception, our liquidity
position and net loss of $4.6 million for the year ended March 31, 2009, which included non-cash
charges of $1.4 million related to amortization of discounts associated with our PP2 Notes and
negative working capital (current liabilities in excess of current assets) of $3.0 million as of
March 31, 2009. In addition, we had a net loss of $428,975 for the three months ended June 30,
2009. Also, as of June 30, 2009, we have negative working capital (current liabilities in excess
of current assets) of $4.0 million.
Accordingly, as of June 30, 2009, the recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset
amounts is dependent on our continuing operations, which in turn is dependent on our ability to
maintain our current financing arrangements and our ability to become profitable in our future
operations through generating higher revenues or lowering operating costs, or a combination of the
two. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These
consolidated financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if we were
unable to continue as a going concern.
Our primary source of working capital liquidity is a factoring facility we have with Allied Capital
Partners, L.P. (Allied), which allows for cash advances of up to $1,500,000 on our customer
accounts receivable, subject to the approval of Allied of the customer and the type of product or
service that is invoiced. The facility allows for an advance rate up to 85.88% and initial
factoring charges are 1.75% of the total accounts receivable balance. An additional funding
agreement became effective in November of 2008 allowing for the factoring of support renewals at an
advance rate of 50.88% and initial factoring charges of 1.75% of the total accounts receivable
balance. Advances made by Allied are collateralized by our accounts receivable, chattel paper,
general intangibles, supporting obligations, inventory and proceeds thereof. The term of the
current agreement is for a period of two years with an automatic one-year renewal thereafter.
Advances under the factoring facility at June 30, 2009 were $112,205 and are netted against total
accounts receivable on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
As of December 30, 2008, we were in default on approximately $148,000 of principal and accrued
interest on certain PP2 Notes (the December PP2 Notes). As of that date, we began to accrue
interest on the December PP2 Notes at a default rate of 18% per annum, which is the maximum
allowable rate as stipulated under the PP2 Note purchase agreement. We will need to renegotiate
the payment or conversion of the principal and interest due on all of the PP2 Notes, of which
approximately $1.1 million is due in April 2009, or raise additional capital, or a combination of
the two. If we need to raise additional capital it could be in the form of equity or debt, or a
combination of the two. The capital markets are extremely challenging at this time and there can be
no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funds and, if so, on favorable terms
or that the cost savings or required new capital will be sufficient. We are also actively
exploring other strategic alternatives.
As of April 5, 2009, we were in default on approximately $1,100,000 of principal and accrued
interest on certain PP2 Notes (the April PP2 Notes). As of that date, we began to accrue
interest on the April PP2 Notes at a default rate of 18% per annum, which is the maximum allowable
rate as stipulated under the PP2 Note purchase agreement. We will need to renegotiate the payment
or conversion of the principal and interest due on all of the PP2 Notes or raise additional
capital, or a combination of the two. If we need to raise additional capital it could be in the

Cash and Cash Flows
Our cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2009 were $71,310. For the three months ended June 30,
2009, net cash used in operations was $79,085. The primary use of cash was the loss from
operations incurred for the period of $192,691 (restated) adjusted for non-cash charges of $116,624
for depreciation and amortization, abandonment loss and gain from disposition of assets. Net cash
used in investing activities of $882 related to purchases of computer and lab equipment.
Contractual Obligations
Our current material contractual obligations are our current and former corporate office leases and
the principal, accrued interest and accrued liquidated damages under our PP1 and PP2 Notes. In
December 2008, we executed a sublease for our former corporate office facility at approximately
$4,100 per month for the remaining lease term, which is through November 2009. On May 29, 2009 we
were informed by the property manager that our sub-lessee had vacated the premises. We are
actively seek a new sublease for this space but given the short timeframe to lease termination it
is unlikely that the we will find a subtenant for this space.
Critical Accounting Policies
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. The accounting policies most
fundamental to understanding our financial statements are those relating to recognition of revenue,
our use of estimates and the accounting for convertible debt and warrants. For a detailed
discussion on the application of these accounting policies, see Note 2 to our audited consolidated
financial statements contained in our 2009 10-K.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
We discuss the potential impact of recent accounting pronouncements in Note 1 to the unaudited
consolidated financial statements contained in this report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide this information.
Item 4(T). Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange
Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted
under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods
specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to
management, including our Chief Executive Officer, who is also currently our interim Chief
Financial Officer (the Certifying Officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosures.
As of June 30, 2009, we carried out an analysis, under the supervision and with the participation
of our management, including our Certifying Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. As a result of this analysis, our Certifying
Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial
reporting continued to be not effective and identified remediation measures to be implemented.
We estimate that the Certifying Officer, along with the Companys other management personnel, will
need to complete remediation measures that may include engaging an independent consulting firm to
further evaluate, remediate, implement, document and test the internal controls in these key areas:
1. | Financial Reporting, including technical accounting surrounding complex accounting transactions | ||
2. | Order Entry Accounting & Reporting | ||
3. | Debt/Equity Accounting & Compliance | ||
4. | Cash & Other Working Capital Management | ||
5. | Compensation Accounting & Administration | ||
6. | Other Assets & Liability Account Management |
We will also monitor our disclosure controls and procedures on a continuing basis to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to our management, including its principal executive and principal
financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In the
future as such controls change in relation to developments in the our business and financial
reporting requirements, our evaluation and monitoring measures will also address any additional
corrective actions that may be required.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls
Our management does not expect that our disclosure control procedures or our internal controls over
financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well
conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of
the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no
evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of
fraud, if any, have been detected.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors are defendants in
litigation pending in Dallas, Texas, styled KINGDON R. HUGHES VS. GREGORY T. ROYAL, CYNTHIA A.
GARR, JAMES T. MILLER, JR., CHARLES STIDHAM, CNH HOLDINGS COMPANY D/B/A CISTERA NETWORKS AND
XBRIDGE SOFTWARE, INC.; Cause No. DV05-0600-G; G-134th District Court, Dallas County, Texas. The
plaintiff has alleged a number of complaints against the defendants, including breach of fiduciary
duty, misappropriation of corporate opportunities, fraud, fraudulent inducement, breach of
contract, tortuous interference with contract, fraudulent transfer, and shareholder oppression
arising in connection with the license agreement between the Company and XBridge in May 2003 and
the acquisition of XBridge by the Company in May 2005. The parties held a mediation conference in
April 2006 and have come to an understanding with respect to the principal elements of a potential
settlement. The Company is currently in the process of negotiating definitive settlement
agreements. In accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies (SFAS 5), we recorded a
contingent liability in the amount of $650,000 as of March 31, 2008 related to the outstanding
litigation. As of December 31, 2008, the Company believes that this amount represents the best
estimate of a potential settlement.
The Company is a defendant in a breach-of-contract claim filed on behalf of Richard McDowell, the
Companys former Chief Financial Officer, who was terminated from the Company on July 14, 2008.
Mr. McDowell is demanding severance under his employment agreement with the Company. On August 22,
2008, the Company through its legal counsel notified Mr. McDowells attorney that it categorically
denied Mr. McDowells claim for severance under the employment agreement. On September 23, 2008,
the Company received notice that Mr. McDowell had filed claims against it with the American
Arbitration Association in accordance with the employment agreement. On October 17, 2008, the
Company through its legal counsel filed an answer with the American Arbitration Association that
categorically denied Mr. McDowells claims. The Company also asserted counterclaims against Mr.
McDowell. An arbitration hearing was conducted during the period July 7 and July 8, 2009, and the
Company is awaiting a decision by the arbitrator as to the final determination of this case.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
We may need to raise additional capital to fund our operations.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is in doubt and we may not be successful in generating
revenue and gross profit at levels sufficient to cover our operating costs and cash investment
requirements. Our current and primary source of cash availability is a $1.5 million credit
facility with an accounts receivable factoring institution, Allied Capital. Funds available to
us under the credit line with Allied Capital are limited by the amount of eligible accounts
receivable we hold at any given time. Additionally, fluctuations in the timing of customer orders
adversely affect our ability to draw on the line when required. Allied Capital may declare the loan
in default if we do not meet certain financial covenants, and the inability to continue factoring
accounts receivable would result in a significant loss of working capital liquidity.
Additionally, we purchase over half of our products from one supplierEquus Computer Systems.
(Equus). Equus provides us with open trade credit on 30 day terms based on a pre-established
credit limit and, historically, has provided additional credit to support larger purchase order
demands on a one-off basis. We purchase most of our other products from our other suppliers on
open trade credit terms with set dollar limits. If Equus or our other significant suppliers were
to cease to sell to us on trade credit terms, or were to substantially lower the credit limits they
have set, we would need to accelerate our payments to those vendors, creating additional demands on
our cash resources, or we would need to find other sources for those goods.
We will need to renegotiate or extend the currently outstanding PP2 Notes and related interest.
As of December 30, 2008, we were in default on approximately $148,000 of principal and accrued
interest on certain PP2 Notes. In addition, as of April 5, 2009, we were in default of
approximately $1,100,000 of principal and accrued interest on certain PP2 Notes. Currently, we are
accruing interest on these PP2 Notes at a default rate of 18% per annum, which is the maximum
allowable rate as stipulated under the PP2 Note purchase agreement. If we

need to raise additional capital it could be in the form of equity or debt, or a combination of the
two. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funds and, if so,
on favorable terms or that the cost savings or required new capital will be sufficient.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
None
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
As of December 30, 2008, we were in default on approximately $148,000 of principal and accrued
interest on certain PP2 Notes (the December PP2 Notes). As of this date, we began to accrue
interest on the December PP2 Notes at a default rate of 18% per annum, which is the maximum
allowable rate as stipulated under the PP2 Note purchase agreement. In addition, as of April 5,
2009, we were in default on approximately $1,100,000 of principal and accrued interest on certain
PP2 Notes. As of this date, we began to accrue interest on the April PP2 Notes at a default rate
of 18% per annum. We will likely need to renegotiate the payment or conversion of the principal
and interest due on all of the PP2 Notes, or raise additional capital, or a combination of the two.
If we need to raise additional capital it could be in the form of equity or debt, or a combination
of the two. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funds and,
if so, on favorable terms or that the cost savings or required new capital will be sufficient.
