Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 30, 2013, Fusion Telecommunications International, Inc. and its recently-formed indirect subsidiary, Fusion Broadvox Acquisition Corp. (collectively, the "Company"), entered into an Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) to acquire specified assets owned by BroadvoxGo! LLC and Cypress Communications, LLC (collectively, “Sellers”) and used in the operation of the cloud communications services segment of Sellers’ business (the “Acquired Business”). The Company also agreed to assume substantially all of the on-going liabilities of the Acquired Business incurred in the ordinary course of business.

On November 15, 2013 the Agreement was amended primarily to (i) increase the amount of the good faith deposit from $200,000 to $300,000, and provide that the deposit be delivered from escrow to the possession and control of Sellers for refund to the Company only under certain limited circumstances; and (ii) change the Outside Closing Date, as defined in the Agreement, from November 15, 2013 to December 16, 2013.  The Company also agreed with Sellers that certain of the conditions precedent to closing contained in the Agreement, including the audit of the financial books and records of the Acquired Business and demonstration that the Acquired Business achieve annualized earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) of not less than $5.0 million based on the three month period from July through September 2013, have been satisfied.  In addition, the Company has agreed with Sellers that since the EBITDA of the Acquired Business for the three-month period exceeded $6.0 million there will be no downward adjustment of the purchase price.

Consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement remains subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, receipt of any applicable regulatory approvals and certain third-party consents, receipt by the Company of sufficient funding to pay the purchase price and provide for reasonable post-acquisition working capital requirements, and other customary conditions of closing.  Consummation also remains subject to the negotiation of a series of mutually acceptable agreements related to post-closing matters such as (a) certain transition services to be provided to the Company by Sellers, (b) the shared use of certain equipment and systems of Sellers on a transition basis and (c) the Company’s use of certain intellectual property of Sellers on a transition basis.

While the Agreement contemplates that a closing of the sale of the Acquired Business will take place no later than December 16, 2013, the conditions precedent to closing are such that there can be no assurance that the Company will complete its acquisition of the Acquired Business in that time or at all.

The foregoing description of the amendment to the Asset Purchase Agreement contained in this Item 1.01 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Amendment to the Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.79, and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 2.02.  Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

The press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report is furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing made by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Forward–Looking Statements
 
The press release furnished herewith includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1996. Such statements consist of any statement other than a recitation of historical fact and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend” or “estimate” or the negative thereof or other variations thereof or comparable terminology. The reader is cautioned that all forward-looking statements are speculative, and there are certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events or results to differ from those referred to in such forward-looking statements. This disclosure highlights some of the important risks regarding the Company’s business. The primary risk attributable to the Company is its ability to raise new and continued capital to execute its comprehensive business strategy. Additional risks include uncertainties associated with the integration of businesses following an acquisition, the Company’s ability to comply with its senior debt agreements, concentration of revenue from one source, competitors with broader product lines and greater resources, emergence into new markets, the termination of any of the Company’s significant contracts or partnerships, the Company’s inability to maintain working capital requirements to fund future operations, or the Company’s ability to attract and retain highly qualified management, technical and sales personnel, and the other factors identified by us from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC. However, the risks included should not be assumed to be the only things that could affect future performance. We may also be subject to disruptions, delays in collections, or facilities closures caused by potential or actual acts of terrorism, natural disasters or government security concerns.
