ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

On September 5, 2008, the Issuer, and its wholly owned subsidiary Xplore Technologies Corporation of America (the “Subsidiary”, together with the Issuer, the “Borrowers”), entered into a note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with Phoenix and the Purchasers listed from time to time on Schedule 2 thereto, pursuant to which the Borrowers issued to Phoenix a secured subordinated promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 (the “Note”) and warrants to purchase 3,703,704 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (the “Warrants”).   Pursuant to the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Borrowers agreed to issue up to an additional $2,000,000 of secured subordinated promissory notes, and warrants to purchase up to and additional 7,407,407 shares of common stock of the Issuer.
 
The Note Purchase Agreement, the form of Note and form of Warrant is filed hereto as Exhibits C, D and E, respectively. Phoenix purchased the Note and the Warrants with working capital.
 
The Note is due and payable in full on August 5, 2009 and bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum. Interest on the Note may be paid in cash or, at the option of the Issuer, in shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.  The Note is secured by all of the assets of the Borrowers and the right of repayment of principal and interest on the Note (as well as the principal and interest on all other notes issued under the Note Purchase Agreement) and the security interest granted by the Borrowers to Phoenix (as well as the other noteholders under the Note Purchase Agreement) is subordinated to the rights and security interest of Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”), the Issuer’s senior lender, in connection with the loan and security agreement between the Subsidiary and SVB dated as of September 15, 2005, as amended (the “Loan Agreement”).

The Warrants expire on September 5, 2011.  The Warrants may be exercised in whole or in part prior to September 5, 2011, as follows: (i) Twenty-five percent of the shares of Common Stock exercisable pursuant to the Warrants vested on September 5, 2008 and are immediately exercisable; and (ii) seventy-five percent of the shares of Common Stock exercisable pursuant to such Warrants will vest in equal periods every thirty days with the first period beginning October 5, 2008 and the last period ending on August 5, 2009 and are immediately exercisable upon vesting, provided, however, that if all obligations due under the Note are satisfied in full prior to August 5, 2009, such Warrants will cease vesting as of the date that all such obligations were satisfied.  The exercise price pursuant to which the holders of the Warrants can purchase shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock is $.27 per share and the Warrants contain a cashless exercise provision.

On September 21, 2007, Phoenix purchased 3,320,000 units, consisting of 3,320,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of the Issuer and a warrant to purchase 1,660,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Series C Warrant”) pursuant to a Subscription Agreement dated September 18, 2007, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit hereto, for an aggregate purchase

price of $1,660,000.  The Series C Warrant is exercisable immediately, has an exercise price of $0.50 and will terminate on September 21, 2009 and the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of Common Stock on a one-for-one basis at any time, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, splits, combinations and similar events.  Phoenix purchased the Series C Preferred Stock and the Series C Warrant with working capital.

Mr. Sassower and Mr. Goren are the co-managers of the managing member of Phoenix.  Both Mr. Sassower and Mr. Goren disclaim any beneficial ownership of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series C Warrant and the Warrant.

3.6
Title to Properties and Assets; Leases; Insurance.
 
(a)           Neither Borrower currently owns any real property nor has ever owned any real property.  Each of the Borrowers has good and marketable title to or has a valid leasehold interest in, or license to use, all of the property or assets used by it or located on its premises and necessary for the conduct of business as presently conducted, free and clear of all Liens, other than Permitted Liens.
 
(b)           With respect to the insurance policies and fidelity bonds covering the assets, business, equipment, properties, operations, employees, officers and directors of each Borrower, there is no claim by either Borrower pending under any of such policies or bonds as to which coverage has been denied or disputed by the underwriters of such policies or bonds which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  All premiums due and payable under all such policies and bonds have been paid and each Borrower, as applicable, is otherwise in compliance in all material respects with the terms of such policies and bonds.  Neither Borrower has any Knowledge of any threatened termination of, or material premium increase with respect to, any of such policies.  Each Borrower maintains insurance in such amounts, including (as applicable) self-insurance, retainage and deductible arrangements, and of such a character as is reasonable for companies engaged in the same or similar business similarly situated.

5

 
committed to make loans or extend or guarantee credit) to any of them other than for reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection with their service to such Borrower, and amounts accrued but not yet due to employees and other service providers. To the Knowledge of the Borrowers, except as provided for in this Agreement and the Loan Documents and except as set forth in the SEC Reports, (a) no employee, officer, shareholder, director or consultant of such Borrower or any member of the immediate family of any such officer or director is, directly or indirectly, interested in any Material Contract or has any other material business relationship with any Borrower, except stock ownership in or employment with a Borrower and (b) no officer, director of such Borrower or any member of the immediate family of such officer or director has any material business relationship with any competitor of such Borrower.

All such Permits are in full force and effect, and to the Borrower’s Knowledge, no violations in any material respect have been recorded in respect of any such Permits; no proceeding is pending or, to the Borrower’s Knowledge, threatened to revoke or limit any such Permit; and no such Permit will be suspended, cancelled or adversely modified as a result of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Loan Documents.  Each Borrower is in compliance in all respects with all applicable Laws, except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
 
3.9           Proprietary Rights.  Each Borrower is the sole owner, free and clear of any Liens, other than Permitted Liens, or has a valid license, without the payment of any royalty (except with respect to off-the-shelf software that is licensed by such Borrower) and otherwise on commercially reasonable terms, to, all Proprietary Rights material to the business of such Borrower.  As used herein, the term “Proprietary Rights” means each Borrower’s patents, trademarks, trade names, service marks, logos, designs, formulations, copyrights, and other trade rights and all registrations and applications therefor, all know-how, trade secrets, technology or processes, research and development, all Internet domain addresses, Web sites and computer programs, data bases and software documentation and all other intellectual property owned, licensed or otherwise used by such Borrower (other than off-the-shelf software that is licensed by such Borrower).  Neither Borrower has received any written demand, claim, notice or inquiry from any person or entity in respect of the Proprietary Rights material to the business of such Borrower which challenges, threatens to challenge or inquires as to whether there is any basis to challenge, the validity of, or the rights of such Borrower in such Proprietary Rights, and neither Borrower has  Knowledge of any basis for any such challenge.  To each Borrower’s Knowledge, such Borrower is not in violation or infringement of, and has not violated or infringed, any intellectual property rights of any other person or entity.  To such Borrower’s Knowledge no third party is infringing on the rights of such Borrower in and to such Proprietary Rights.
 
3.10           Material Contracts.  (a)  All material agreements of each Borrower (collectively, the “Material Contracts”) are included as exhibits to the Parent’s filings with the SEC.  The SEC Reports disclose all financing arrangements of the Borrowers relating to the assets or liabilities of the Borrowers.

3.12           Absence of Conflicts.  Neither Borrower is in violation of or default under any provision of its Certificate of Incorporation or its Bylaw.  The execution, delivery, and performance of, and compliance with the Loan Documents and this Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, have not and will not:
 
(a)           violate, conflict with or result in a breach of any provision of or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the termination of, or accelerate the performance required by, or result in the creation of any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) upon any of the assets, properties or business of either Borrower under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of (i) its Certificate of Incorporation or its Bylaws, or (ii) any Material Contract; or
 
(b)           violate any judgment, ruling, order, writ, injunction, award, decree, or any Law or regulation of any court or federal, state, county or local government or any other governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or authority which is applicable to either Borrower or any of their assets, properties or businesses.
 
3.13           Litigation.  Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, there is no action, claim, litigation, tax or compliance audit, suit or proceeding, regulatory or administrative enforcement action or governmental inquiry or investigation, pending, or, to such Borrower’s Knowledge, any threat thereof, against such Borrower or any of their officers or directors or the assets of either Borrower.  To the Borrower’s Knowledge, there is no reason to believe that any of the foregoing may occur which, in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a
 
7

 
Material Adverse Effect.  Neither Borrower is subject to any outstanding judgment, order or decree directed against such Borrower or any officer or director of any thereof.
 
3.14           Consents.  No consent, approval, waiver or authorization, or designation, declaration, notification, or filing with any person or entity (governmental or private), on the part of a Borrower is required in connection with the valid execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents or this Agreement, the offer, sale or issuance of the Notes and Warrants (other than such notifications or filings required under applicable federal or state securities Laws, if any), except for such consents, approvals, waivers, authorizations, designations, declarations, notifications, or filings that will be received prior to or as of the Initial Closing Date.

(b)           Each Company Employee Plan by its terms and operation is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable Laws and all required filings, if any, with respect to such Company Employee Plan has been made.  The events contemplated by this Agreement (either alone or together with any other event) will not (i) entitle any employees to severance pay, unemployment compensation, or other similar payments under any Company Employee Plan or Law, (ii) accelerate the time of payment or vesting or increase the amount of benefits due under any Company Employee Plan or compensation to any employees of the Borrowers or (iii) result in any payments (including parachute payments) under any Company Employee Plan or Law becoming due to any employee.
 
3.17           Tax Returns, Payments and Elections.  Each Borrower has filed all tax returns and reports (including information returns and reports) as required by Law except to the extent that the failure to so file did not and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and such tax returns and reports are true and correct in all material respects.  Each Borrower has paid or made provision for payment of all taxes and other assessments shown as due on such returns.  The provision for taxes of each Borrower as shown in the Financial Statements (as hereinafter defined) is adequate in all material respects for all taxes, assessments and governmental charges due or accrued as of the date thereof with respect to its business, properties and operations.  Neither Borrower has elected pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to be treated as a Subchapter S corporation pursuant to Section 1362(a) or a collapsible corporation pursuant to Section 341(f) of the Code, nor has a Borrower made any other elections pursuant to the Code (other than elections that relate solely to methods of accounting, depreciation or amortization) that could reasonably be expected to have a

3.18           Brokers or Finders. Neither Borrower has incurred, or will incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken by either Borrower, any liability for brokerage or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or any similar charges in connection with this Agreement or the issuance of the Notes and the Warrants or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby.  The Borrowers agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser from any liability for any commission or compensation in the nature of a finder’s fee (and the costs and expenses of defending against such liability or asserted liability) for which the Borrowers or any of their respective officers, employees or representatives is responsible.

(b)           Method of Exercise.  The Holder hereof may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, at any time with respect to the Warrant Shares then vested, by the surrender of this Warrant, with the exercise form in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, duly executed, at the principal office of the Issuer, and by the payment to the Issuer of an amount of consideration therefor equal to the Warrant Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.

Issuer will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of the issue upon exercise of this Warrant a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of this Warrant.
 
(b)           Covenants.  The Issuer shall not by any action including, without limitation, amending the Articles of the Issuer, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Holder hereof against dilution (but only to the extent specifically provided in Section 4 hereof) or impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer will (i) take all such action as may be reasonably necessary in order that the Issuer may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances and restrictions (other than such restrictions as are expressly set forth herein and subject to applicable securities laws) upon the exercise of this Warrant; and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Issuer to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

4.           Adjustment of Warrant Price.  The Warrant Price and kind of Securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as follows:
 
(a)           Recapitalization; Reorganization; Reclassification; Consolidation; Merger or Sale.
 
(i)           In case the Issuer at any time prior to the Expiration Date shall do any of the following (each, a “Triggering Event”):  (A) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and the Issuer shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, or (B) permit any other Person to consolidate with or merge into the Issuer and the Issuer shall be the continuing or surviving Person but, in connection with such consolidation or merger, any Capital Stock of the Issuer shall be changed into or exchanged for Securities of any other Person or cash or any other property, or (C) transfer, sell or otherwise dispose all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other Person, then, and in the case of each such Triggering Event, proper provision shall be made so that, upon the basis and the terms and in the manner provided in this Warrant, the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such Triggering Event, to the extent this Warrant is not exercised prior to such Triggering Event, to receive, and shall accept, at the Warrant Price in
 
4

 
effect at the time immediately prior to the consummation of such Triggering Event in lieu of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise of this Warrant prior to such Triggering Event, the Securities, cash and property to which such Holder would have been entitled upon the consummation of such Triggering Event if such Holder had exercised the rights represented by this Warrant immediately prior thereto, subject to adjustments and increases (subsequent to such corporate action) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4.
 
(ii)           Notwithstanding anything contained in this Warrant to the contrary, the Issuer will not, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, effect any Triggering Event (other than a merger involving the Issuer and one or more of its wholly-owned subsidiaries), unless, prior to the consummation thereof, each Person (other than the Issuer) which as a result of such Triggering Event may be required to deliver any Securities, cash or property upon the exercise of this Warrant as provided herein shall assume, by written instrument delivered to, and reasonably satisfactory to, the Holder, (A) the obligations of the Issuer under this Warrant (and if the Issuer shall survive the consummation of such Triggering Event, such assumption shall be in addition to, and shall not release the Issuer from, any continuing obligations of the Issuer under this Warrant) and (B) the obligation to deliver to such Holder such Securities, cash or property as in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this subsection (a).
 
(b)           Subdivision or Consolidation of Common Stock.  If the Issuer, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, shall subdivide or consolidate the outstanding shares of Common Stock (A) in case of subdivision of shares, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately reduced (as at the effective date of such subdivision) to reflect the increase in the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as a result of such subdivision, or (B) in the case of a consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased (as at the effective date of such consolidation) to reflect the reduction in the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as a result of such consolidation.
 
(c)           Certain Dividends and Distributions.  If the Issuer, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, shall:
 
(i)           Stock Dividends.  Pay a stock dividend in, or make any other distribution to its holders of Common Stock, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted, as at the date of such payment or other distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such payment or other distribution, by a fraction (1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution (plus in the event that the Issuer paid cash for fractional shares, the number of additional shares which would have been outstanding had the Issuer issued fractional shares in connection with said dividends); or
 
(ii)           Other Dividends.  Pay a cash dividend on, or make any distribution of its assets upon or with respect to (including, but not limited to, a distribution of its property as a dividend in liquidation or partial liquidation or by way of return of capital), the Common Stock (other than as described in clause (i) of this subsection (c)), then on the record date for such
 
5

 
payment or distribution, this Warrant shall represent a right to acquire upon exercise, in addition to the number of Warrant Shares under this Warrant, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of such dividend or additional stock or other Securities or property of the Issuer to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto.
 
(d)           Adjustment of Warrant Price Upon Issuance of Additional Common Stock. If the Issuer, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, shall issue Additional Common Stock at a price per share, or with an exercise price or conversion price (as the case may be), lower than the Warrant Price in effect at such time, then the Warrant Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:
 
WP2 = (WP1 * (A + B)) / (A + C)
 
For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:
 
(A)           “WP2” shall mean the Warrant Price in effect immediately after such issue of Additional Common Stock;
 
(B)           “WP1” shall mean the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such issue of Additional Common Stock;
 
(C)           “A” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Common Stock (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of all Convertible Securities outstanding immediately prior to such issue);
 
(D)           “B” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if such Additional Common Stock had been issued at a price per share equal to WP1; and
 
(E)           “C” shall mean the number of such Additional Common Stock issued in such transaction.
 
(e)           Outstanding Common Stock. With respect to the making of adjustments in the Warrant Price, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include any shares thereof then directly or indirectly owned or held by or for the account of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries.
 
(f)           Other Action Affecting the Common Stock.  In case after the First Closing Date the Issuer shall take any action affecting its shares of Common Stock, other than an action described in any of the foregoing subsections (a) through (d) of this Section 4, inclusive, and the failure to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and principle of this Section 4, then, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted in such manner and at such time as the Board may in good faith determine to be equitable in the circumstances.
 
6

 
(g)           Form of Warrant after Adjustments.  The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustments in the Warrant Price or the number and kind of Securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
 
5.           Notice of Adjustments.  Whenever the Warrant Price shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4 hereof (for purposes of this Section 5, an “adjustment”), the Issuer shall, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of such adjustment, deliver notice to the Holder of such adjustment and shall cause its Chief Financial Officer to prepare and execute a certificate setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated (including a description of the basis on which the Board made any determination hereunder), the calculations made in connection therewith and the Warrant Price after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder of this Warrant promptly after each adjustment. Any failure of the Chief Financial Officer to deliver such certificate shall not prejudice the rights of the Holder in connection with the applicable adjustment. Any dispute between the Issuer and the Holder with respect to the matters set forth in such certificate shall be determined by the Issuer’s independent outside auditors or, if they are unable to act, by such firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by the Board, and any such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Issuer, the Holder and the transfer agent for the Common Stock. The firm selected by the Issuer as provided in the preceding sentence shall be instructed to deliver a written opinion as to such matters to the Issuer and such Holder within thirty days after submission to it of such dispute.  The fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be borne equally by such Holder and the Issuer.
 
6.           Fractional Shares.  No fractional Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereof, but in lieu of such fractional shares, the Issuer shall make a cash payment therefor equal in amount to the product of the applicable fraction multiplied by the Per Share Market Value then in effect.
 
7.           Rules Regarding Calculation of Adjustment of Warrant Price.
 
(a)           No adjustment in the Warrant Price will be required unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the prevailing Warrant Price; provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this subsection would otherwise have been required to be made, will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.
 
(b)           If the Issuer sets a record date to determine the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or sets a record date to take any other action and thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend or distribution or the taking of any other action, legally abandons its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution or take such other action, then no adjustment in the Warrant Price shall be made.
