NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
(Unaudited)
 
NOTE 1 — GOING CONCERN:
 
Historically, ClearPoint Business Resources, Inc. (“ClearPoint” or the “Company”) has funded its cash and liquidity needs through cash generated from operations and debt financing.  At March 31, 2009, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $55,128,660 and working capital deficiency of $11,859,442. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company incurred a net loss of $638,117. Although the Company restructured its debt and obtained new financing in the second quarter of 2008, cash projected to be generated from operations may not be sufficient to fund operations and meet debt repayment obligations during the next twelve months. In order to meet its future cash and liquidity needs, the Company may be required to raise additional financing or restructure existing debt. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining additional financing or restructuring its existing debt. If the Company does not generate sufficient cash from operations, raise additional financing or restructure existing debt, there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
NOTE 2 — ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
 
ClearPoint provides comprehensive workforce management technology solutions throughout the United States, including its iLabor technology platform (“iLabor” or the “iLabor Network”), vendor management services (“VMS”) and staff augmentation programs.  Since its inception, ClearPoint has enhanced its platform through organic growth and the integration of acquisitions.  Prior to fiscal year 2008, ClearPoint provided various temporary staffing services as both a direct provider and as a franchisor.  During the year ended December 31, 2008, ClearPoint transitioned its business model from a temporary staffing provider through a network of branch-based offices or franchises to a provider that manages clients’ temporary staffing needs through its open Internet portal-based iLabor Network. Under the new business model, ClearPoint acts as a broker for its clients and network of temporary staffing suppliers using iLabor. The Company now derives its revenues from fees related to iLabor Network, royalty fees related to contracts entered into under the previous business model and VMS fees. All operations are centralized at its offices in Chalfont, Pennsylvania.
 
On February 12, 2007, ClearPoint Resources, Inc., ClearPoint’s wholly-owned subsidiary (“CPR”), consummated a merger (the “Merger”) with Terra Nova Acquisition Corporation (“Terra Nova”), a blank check company. As a result, CPBR Acquisition, Inc. (“CPBR”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Terra Nova, merged with CPR.  At the closing of the Merger, CPR stockholders were issued an aggregate of 6,051,549 shares of Terra Nova common stock.
 
The merger agreement also provides for CPR’s original stockholders to receive additional performance payments, in the form of cash and/or shares, contingent upon the future performance of the combined company’s share price. The performance payments are payable in a combination of cash and shares.  No such payments have been made to date and none are yet due.  Upon the closing of the Merger, Terra Nova changed its name to ClearPoint Business Resources, Inc.
 
7

 
Upon consummation of the Merger, $30.6 million was released from the Terra Nova Trust Fund to be used by the combined company. After payments totaling approximately $3.3 million for professional fees and other direct and indirect costs related to the Merger, the net proceeds amounted to $27.3 million, all of which were used by ClearPoint as follows: (i) to retire the outstanding debt to Bridge Healthcare Finance, LLC and Bridge Opportunity Finance, LLC (collectively, “Bridge”), of $12.45 million, (ii) to pay an early debt retirement penalty in the amount of $1.95 million to Bridge, (iii) to pay for the redemption of warrants related to its credit facility with Bridge in the amount of $3.29 million and (iv) to partially fund the acquisition of ALS, LLC (see Note 4 – Business and Asset Acquisitions and Dispositions and Licensing Agreements), and certain other related transaction costs.
 
The Merger was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting as a reverse acquisition in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Under this method of accounting, Terra Nova was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, this Merger was considered to be a capital transaction in substance. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of ClearPoint issuing stock for the net monetary assets of Terra Nova, accompanied by a recapitalization.
 
NOTE 3 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
The Company’s accounting policies are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Outlined below are those policies considered particularly significant.
 
(a) Basis of Presentation:
 
The condensed interim consolidated financial information as of March 31, 2009 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to provide for fair presentation.  The condensed interim consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, previously filed with the SEC.
 
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of consolidated financial position as of March 31, 2009, and consolidated results of operations, and cash flows for the three month-periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, as applicable, have been made.  The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.
 
(b) Use of Estimates:
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
(c) Revenue Recognition:
 
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB 104”). Under SAB 104, revenue is recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the sales price is determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue earned but not billed is recorded and accrued as unbilled revenue. In 2008, the Company transitioned from a short and long term temporary staffing provider through a network of branch based offices to a provider that manages clients’ temporary staffing spend through its open Internet portal based iLabor network, as well as its closed client embedded VMS system.
 
8

 
The Company evaluated the criteria outlined in EITF Issue No. 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal Versus Net as an Agent, in determining that it was appropriate to record the revenue from the iLabor technology platform on a net basis after deducting costs related to suppliers for sourcing labor, which represent the direct costs of the contingent labor supplied, for clients. Generally, the Company is not the primarily obligated party in iLabor transactions and the amounts earned are determined using a fixed percentage, a fixed-payment schedule, or a combination of the two.
 
Prior to 2008 and for the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company’s primary major source of revenue was the temporary placement of workers. This revenue was recognized when earned and realizable and therefore when the following criteria had been met: (a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (b) services have been rendered; (c) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (d) collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized in the period in which services are provided based on hours worked by the workers. As a result of changes in the Company’s business model, in 2008, the Company recognized revenue from four major sources:
 
 
·
For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company recorded revenue from its temporary staffing operations, permanent placement fees, and temp-to-hire fees by formerly Company-owned and franchised operations. Temporary staffing revenue and the related labor costs and payroll taxes were recorded in the period in which the services were performed. Temp-to-hire fees were generally recorded when the temporary employee was hired directly by the customer. ClearPoint reserved for billing adjustments, principally related to overbillings and client disputes, made after year end that related to services performed during the fiscal year. The reserve was estimated based on historical adjustment data as percent of sales. Permanent placement fees were recorded when the candidate commenced full-time employment and, if necessary, sales allowances were established to estimate losses due to placed candidates not remaining employed for the permanent placement guarantee period, which was typically 30-60 days;
 
 
·
During the quarter ended June 30, 2008, the Company started transitioning from the temporary staffing provider model to its iLabor technology platform. Under this new model, the Company records revenue on a net fee basis after deducting costs paid to suppliers for sourcing labor for the Company’s clients. The Company acts as a broker for its clients and the Company’s network of temporary staffing suppliers. Revenue from the Company’s iLabor Network where it electronically procures and consolidates buying of temporary staffing for clients is recognized on a net basis;
 
 
·
The Company records royalty revenues when earned based upon the terms of the agreements with Select, StaffChex and Townsend Careers, as defined below (see Note 4 – Business and Asset Acquisitions and Dispositions and Licensing Agreements); and

(e) Vendor Managed Services Receivables and Payables:
 
The Company manages networks of temporary staffing suppliers or vendors on behalf of clients and receives a fee for this service. The Company’s obligation to pay the vendor is conditioned upon receiving payment from the client for services rendered by the vendor’s personnel. As the right of offset between client and vendor does not exist, the receivable from the client which is included in accounts receivable, and payable to the vendor, which is included as a liability, are not offset and are recorded on a gross basis.  Included in the Company’s gross accounts receivable at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 were VMS gross receivables of $731,394 and $1,264,168, respectively. Included in the Company’s accounts payable at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 was VMS payables of $1,200,878 and $1,320,602, respectively.
 
(f) Workers’ Compensation:
 
Prior to February 29, 2008, the Company was responsible for the workers’ compensation costs for its temporary and regular employees and was related to domestic workers’ compensation claims ($250,000 or $500,000 per claim, depending on the policy). The Company accrued the estimated costs of workers’ compensation claims based upon the expected loss rates within the various temporary employment categories provided by the Company and the estimated costs of claims reported but not settled, and claims incurred but not reported.  As a result of the estimated costs, the Company estimated that the insurance carriers will issue rebates based on its findings. During 2008, the Company sold all of its ownership interest of HRO (see Note 4 – Business and Asset Acquisitions and Dispositions and Licensing Agreements).
 
(g) Equipment, Furniture and Fixtures:
 
Equipment, furniture, and fixtures are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful asset lives of three (3) to seven (7) years. The Company also provides for amortization of leasehold improvements over the lives of the respective lease term or the service life of the improvement, whichever is shorter.
 
(h) Intangible Assets:
 
In accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”), definite lived intangible assets are amortized over their expected lives of two (2) to five (5) years.  The Company’s identifiable intangible asset with a definitive life is comprised of a covenant not to compete.
 
(i) Goodwill:
 
In accordance with SFAS No. 142, goodwill was not amortized and was assigned to specific reporting units and reviewed for possible impairment at least annually or more frequently upon the occurrence of an event or when circumstances indicated that the reporting unit’s carrying amount of goodwill was greater than its fair value. As a result of the change in the Company’s business model in 2008 and the loss of cash flows related to the prior business model, the Company determined that an impairment of goodwill existed during 2008 and recognized an impairment charge of $16,821,586.
 
The following table shows the change to goodwill during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008:

(j) Advertising Expense:
 
The Company expenses advertising costs in the period in which they are incurred. Advertising expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were $7,607 and $21,200, respectively.
 
10

 
(k) Deferred Financing Costs:
 
Deferred financing costs consist of legal, banking, and other related fees that were capitalized in connection with obtaining various loans and are being amortized over the life of the related loan. Deferred financing costs of $469,389 at March 31, 2009 and $90,406 at March 31, 2008 were net of accumulated amortization of $264,058 and $51,099, respectively.
 
Amortization of financing costs for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was $67,056 and $11,792, respectively.
 
 (l) Income Taxes:
 
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“SFAS No. 109”). Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reflected on the balance sheet when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the asset will be realized.
 
(m) Stock-based Employee Compensation
 
The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation in accordance with the recognition and measurement provisions of SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS No. 123(R)”), related to share-based payment transactions, including employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements.  In addition, the Company adheres to the guidance set forth within SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”), which certain SEC rules and regulations and provides interpretations with respect to the valuation of share-based payments for public companies.
 
(n) Loss Per Share:
 
The Company accounts for earnings per share pursuant to SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share,” which requires disclosure on the financial statements of “basic” and “diluted” earnings (loss) per share.  Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potentially dilutive securities outstanding for each year.  Potentially dilutive securities include stock options and warrants and shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Company's convertible notes.
 
Diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was the same as basic loss per share, since the effects of the calculation were anti-dilutive due to the fact that the Company incurred losses for all periods presented.  The following securities, presented on a common share equivalent basis, were excluded from the per share computations:
 
   
Three Months Ended
March 31,

    15,015,825       11,505,000  
      15,961,425       12,705,008  
                                                                                       
 (o) Impairment of Long Lived Assets:
 
In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets”, long-lived assets such as equipment, furniture and fixtures, and amortizable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset many not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.
 
11

 
(p) Concentration of Credit Risk:
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk as defined by SFAS No. 105, “Disclosure of Information about Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk and Financial Instruments with Concentrations of Credit Risk”, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivable and unbilled revenues.
 
(i) Cash and Cash Equivalents:
 
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions. It is the Company’s policy to monitor the financial strength of these institutions on a regular basis and perform periodic reviews of the relative credit rating of these institutions to lower its risk. At times, during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, the Company’s cash and cash equivalent balances exceeded the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limit of $100,000 which was increased to $250,000 during 2008 on interest bearing accounts of/in financial institution.  The FDIC also removed its $100,000 limit on non-interest bearing accounts all together.  The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts, and it believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.  The balance in interest bearing accounts at December 31, 2008 was more than the FDIC limit of $250,000.  The balance in interest bearing accounts at March 31, 2009 was less than the FDIC limit of $250,000 and there were no uninsured cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2009.
 
(ii) Accounts Receivable and Unbilled Revenues:
 
The Company does not require collateral or other security to support customer receivables or unbilled revenues.  One (1) customer account accounted for 10% of the accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2009.  The Company believes that credit risk is dispersed and low due to the large number of customers in different regions and different industries.
 
(q) Reclassifications:
 
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2008 amounts to conform with the 2009 presentation.
 
(r) Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
 
Recently Adopted Standards
 
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. SFAS No. 157 was effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and all interim periods within those fiscal years. In February 2008, the FASB released FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FSP FAS 157-2 – Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually), to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years.
 
In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active.” This FSP clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157 in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. FSP FAS 157-3 was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements had not been issued.  The implementation of SFAS No. 157 for financial assets and liabilities, effective January 1, 2008, and FSP FAS 157-2, effective January 1, 2009, did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
 
12

 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure, on an item-by-item basis, specified financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are required to be reported in earnings at each reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, the provisions of which are required to be applied prospectively. The implementation of SFAS No. 159 for financial assets and liabilities, effective January 1, 2008, did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations, as management has not elected to measure at fair value any of the Company’s eligible financial instruments or other items not previously required to be measured at fair value.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 141.”  This statement establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer recognizes and measures assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, as well as, goodwill acquired and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of a business combination. In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP SFAS 141(R)-1, “Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies,” which amends SFAS No. 141(R) to require that contingent assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at fair value on the acquisition date if the fair value can be reasonably estimated. If the fair value cannot be reasonably estimated, the contingent asset or liability would be measured in accordance with SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies,” and FASB Interpretation No. 14, “Reasonable Estimation of the Amount of a Loss.”  Both pronouncements were effective for the Company as of January 1, 2009 and will be applied prospectively to business combinations entered into on or after that date.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51.” This statement requires that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary be reported as equity and that the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest should be separately identified in the consolidated financial statements. The Company has applied the provisions of SFAS No. 160 prospectively, as of January 1, 2009, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which were applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The adoption did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 161”). The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The adoption of SFAS No. 161, effective January 1, 2009, did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
 
In December 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 132(R)-1, “Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets,” which amends FAS 132(R) to provide guidance on disclosures about plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan. These new disclosures will provide users of the financial statements with an understanding of how investment allocation decisions are made, the major categories of plan assets, the input and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets, the effects of fair value measurements and the significant concentrations of risk in regard to the plan assets. This FSP is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. As the position only requires enhanced disclosures, management believes its adoption will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
13

 
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-4, “Determining Whether a Market Is Not Active and a Transaction Is Not Distressed”, which supersedes FSP FAS 157-3 This FSP provides additional guidance in determining whether a market is active or inactive and whether a transaction is distressed. It is applicable to all assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value and requires enhanced disclosures. This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. Management believes that the adoption of FSP FAS 157-4 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” which amends FAS No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Values of Financial Instruments,” to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim, as well as, annual financial statements. It also amends APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require those disclosures in all interim financial statements. This FSP is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. Management believes that the adoption of this position will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On December 31, 2007, CPR entered into a purchase agreement (the “MVI Purchase Agreement”) effective as of December 31, 2007 with CPR’s wholly owned subsidiary, Mercer Ventures, Inc. (“MVI”), and TradeShow Products Inc. (“TradeShow”). Pursuant to the MVI Purchase Agreement, CPR sold all of the issued and outstanding securities of MVI to TradeShow for the aggregate purchase price equal to the liabilities assumed of $1,205,983. In addition, CPR will earn a perpetual commission equal to 1.75% of the weekly revenue generated by a specified list of MVI clients. TradeShow is obligated to pay such fee in arrears on the first business day of every month. Unpaid fees will be subject to interest at a rate of 1.5% per month.  The Company recorded $44,193 during the three months ended March 31, 2008 for such fees, which were not paid by TradeShow.
 
The Company considered the guidance in EITF 03-13 “Applying the Conditions in Paragraph 42 of FASB Statement No. 144 in Determining Whether to Report Discontinued Operations” and concluded that the operations of MVI should not be reported as discontinued operations. The Company conclusion included an assessment of the qualitative and quantitative impact of the direct cash flows to be received from the ongoing operations of MVI through the commission structure as well as the Company’s involvement in the management of the ongoing MVI business.

(c)           Asset Purchase Agreement with StaffChex
 
On February 28, 2008, ClearPoint entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “StaffChex Purchase Agreement”) with StaffChex, Inc. (“StaffChex”), a privately owned company. Under the StaffChex Purchase Agreement, StaffChex acquired all of the rights to customer accounts, as defined in the StaffChex Purchase Agreement, related to the temporary staffing services serviced by (i) KOR Capital, LLC (“KOR”) pursuant to the Franchise Agreement – Management Agreement, dated August 30, 2007, and (ii) StaffChex Servicing, LLC (“StaffChex Servicing”), an affiliate of StaffChex, pursuant to the Exclusive Supplier Agreement, dated September 2, 2007. The prior agreements with StaffChex Servicing and KOR were terminated on February 28, 2008 and March 5, 2008, respectively. The Company did not incur any early termination penalties in connection with such terminations. On March 5, 2008, ClearPoint completed the disposition and transfer of all of the customer accounts.  In consideration for the customer accounts acquired from ClearPoint, StaffChex issued to ClearPoint 15,444 shares of common stock of StaffChex, and ClearPoint is entitled to receive an additional 15,568 shares of StaffChex common stock, pursuant to the earnout provisions set forth in the StaffChex Purchase Agreement, which have been met. As a result, the Company is entitled to 31,012 shares (16.4%) of StaffChex’s outstanding stock, of which 15,568 shares have not yet been issued to the Company.
 
ClearPoint is using the cost accounting method to record earnings from this investment in StaffChex. In addition, ClearPoint entered into an iLabor agreement with StaffChex whereby StaffChex agreed to process its temporary labor requests through iLabor and to pay to ClearPoint 2.25% (such percentage subject to reduction based on meeting certain volume targets) of StaffChex’s total collections from its total billings under the acquired customer accounts for temporary staffing services (the “Royalty”).
 
On March 16, 2009, the Company and StaffChex entered into Amendment No. 1 to the iLabor agreement (the “Amendment”) pursuant to which the payment terms of the iLabor agreement were restated.  The Amendment provides that the Company will pay StaffChex for client-approved billable work hours at the agreed-upon hourly rate with respect to such client.  Royalties payable to the Company shall be calculated based on weekly collections.  For weekly collections of less than $1.4 million, the Royalty is one and one-quarter percent (1.25%) and for weekly collections of more than $1.4 million, the Royalty is two percent (2%).  These weekly payments commenced on March 18, 2009.  In addition, StaffChex agreed to make 104 weekly payments of $4,096 followed by 52 weekly payments of $3,105 for past-due Royalties owed through February 28, 2009.  Such additional payments will commence on June 3, 2009.  The failure of StaffChex to make payments due pursuant to the iLabor agreement constitutes a material breach of the iLabor agreement.  In the event of nonpayment, StaffChex will have a ten (10) day cure period to make any delinquent payments.  If such payments remain outstanding following the cure period, StaffChex agreed to direct its affiliated receivables factoring company to make the required payment to the Company.  In addition, the Amendment provides that StaffChex may not assign, convey, sell, transfer or lease the customer account property or the underlying customer agreements transferred to StaffChex without the prior written consent of the Company.  Such consent will not be required in connection with a transaction occurring after February 28, 2012 and that is part of a sale of 100% of the stock of StaffChex or all or substantially all of its assets.
 
 (d)           Sale of ClearPoint HRO
 
On March 5, 2008, ClearPoint completed the disposition and transfer of the balances of customer accounts related to its temporary staffing business. On February 7, 2008, CPR and HRO, a wholly owned subsidiary of CPR, entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “HRO Purchase Agreement”) with AMS Outsourcing, Inc. (“AMS”).

 (e)           License Agreement
 
On February 28, 2008, CPR and ClearPoint Workforce, LLC (“CPW”), a wholly owned subsidiary of CPR, entered into a Licensing Agreement (the “Optos Licensing Agreement”) with Optos Capital, LLC (“Optos”), of which Christopher Ferguson, a principal stockholder of the Company, is the sole member. Pursuant to the Optos Licensing Agreement, the Company (i) granted to Optos a non-exclusive license to use the ClearPoint Property and the Program, both as defined in the Optos Licensing Agreement, which included certain intellectual property of CPR, and (ii) licensed and subcontracted to Optos the client list previously serviced by TZG Enterprises, LLC (“TZG”), a Delaware limited liability company controlled by J. Todd Warner, a former officer of the Company, pursuant to an Agreement dated August 13, 2007 (the “TZG Agreement”) and all contracts and contract rights for the clients included on such list.  In consideration of the licensing of the Program, which was part of the ClearPoint Property, CPR was entitled to receive a fee equal to 5.2% of total cash receipts of Optos related to temporary staffing services. On April 8, 2008, the Optos Licensing Agreement was terminated.  In consideration for terminating the Optos Licensing Agreement, CPR and Optos agreed that there would be a net termination fee for any reasonable net costs or profit incurred, if any, when winding up the operations associated with termination. The estimated net termination fee of $500,000 was recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2008 and was included in accrued expenses at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008.  The payment of the net termination fee is expected to be in the form of cash and shares of common stock of the Company.  See Note 19 – Related Party Transactions for a description of the fees payable under the Optos Licensing Agreement recorded by the Company.

On April 8, 2008, CPR entered into a License Agreement dated April 8, 2008 (the “Select License Agreement”) with Koosharem Corp., doing business as Select Staffing (“Select”) and a Temporary Help Services Subcontract dated April 8, 2008 (the “Select Subcontract”) with Select.  Pursuant to the Select License Agreement and the Select Subcontract, CPR was entitled to receive annually the first 10% of all gross billings of the subcontracted contracts up to $36 million of gross billings ($3.6 million per year to CPR) and whereby Select licensed use of the iLabor network in exchange for a $1.2 million payment ($900,000 paid on April 8, 2008 and $300,000 was payable on July 1, 2008, but was not paid).  On July 29, 2008, Select and Real Time Staffing Services, Inc. (“Real Time”), filed a complaint (the “Select Litigation”) in the Superior Court of California (Santa Barbara County), against the Company alleging that the Company owed it $1,033,210 for services performed for the Company’s clients.  On August 22, 2008, CPR, Select and Real Time entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release (the “Select Settlement Agreement”) pursuant to which each party released the others from all prior, existing and future claims including, without limitation, the parties’ claims with respect to the Select Litigation the Select License Agreement and the Select Subcontract.  Pursuant to the Select Settlement Agreement, the parties also agreed (i) that CPR would retain the $900,000 paid to it under the Select License Agreement; (ii) to allocate between Select and CPR amounts paid or payable with respect to certain client accounts; (iii) to execute an amendment to the Select Subcontract (the “Subcontract Amendment”), as described below; and (iv) that Select would file the required documents to dismiss the Select Litigation with prejudice. In addition, Select and CPR agreed not to commence any future action arising from the claims released under the Select Settlement Agreement, and, on August 28, 2008, this lawsuit was dismissed.  The monthly revenue fees are split between the parties as provided in the Select License Agreement. Effective September 21, 2008, licensing fees related to the Select License Agreement consisted of amortizing deferred revenue of $83,000 plus an additional $250,000 of cash paid by Select over the life of the contract, which was 28 months.
 
The deferred revenue of $1,743,173 as of March 31, 2009, which has a remaining life of 21 months, was comprised of the remaining balance of the original $900,000 payment, cash received on behalf of Select and relief of certain accounts payable owed to Select as of the settlement date (see Note 20 – Litigation for further detail).

Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement with ComVest
 
On June 20, 2008, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with ComVest Capital, LLC (“ComVest”). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, ComVest extended to the Company: (i) a secured revolving credit facility for up to $3 million (the “Revolver”) and (ii) a term loan (the “Term Loan” and, together with the Revolver, the “Loans”) in the principal amount of $9 million, of which $1 million was treated as an original issue discount, and the Company received $8 million in respect of the Term Loan. The Company also issued a warrant to purchase 2,210,825 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, immediately exercisable during the period commencing June 20, 2008 and ending on June 30, 2014. This warrant was valued at $634,000 and treated as a discount to the long term portion of the debt and will be amortized over the life of the long term debt.  Amortization related to the warrants amounted to $57,494 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2008, respectively. Amortization related to the original issue discount of $1,000,000 amounted to $90,685 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2008, respectively.  The maximum amount that may be outstanding under the Revolver was initially $3 million (the “Revolver Maximum”). Effective as of the first day of each calendar month beginning January 1, 2010, the Revolver Maximum will be reduced by an amount equal to 5.5% of the Revolver Maximum in effect for the previous month. To the extent the amounts outstanding under the Revolver exceed the Revolver Maximum, the Company must make a payment to ComVest sufficient to reduce the amount outstanding to an amount less than or equal to the Revolver Maximum. The Company may borrow under the Revolver from time to time, up to the then applicable Revolver Maximum. The amounts due under the Revolver bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of: (i) the prime rate of interest announced by Citibank, N.A. plus 2.25% or (ii) 7.25%. At March 31, 2009, the interest rate on the Revolver was 7.25% and during the year ended December 31, 2008, averaged 7.25%.  The Term Loan bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum.  The Loans provide that the stated interest rates are subject to increase by 500 basis points during the continuance of an event of default under the Loan Agreement. Amounts due under the Loans are payable monthly, beginning July 1, 2008.
 
The outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan is payable as follows: $150,000 on July 1, 2008 and subsequent payments are to be in an amount equal to the greater of (i) $200,000 less the amount of interest accrued during the preceding month or (ii) the amount equal to (a) the lesser of $450,000 or certain license fees, royalties, use fees and/or other such payments collected by the Company during the preceding month less (“Royalties”) (b) the amount of interest accrued during the preceding month (but not greater than the principal balance of the Term Loan). The installments under (ii) above are payable monthly starting August 1, 2008, including December 1, 2010. The final installment due and payable on December 31, 2010 will be in an amount equal to the entire remaining principal balance, if any, of the Term Loan.
 
 
21

 
 
As of March 31, 2009, the Company was in default on principal installment payments due for February and March, 2009 under the Term Loan in the amount of $419,285, in the aggregate.  The Company was also in default on principal installment payments for April, 2009 of $255,250 under the Term Loan.  The failure to make such payments constitutes an event of default under the Loan Agreement.  The Company is obligated to pay a default interest rate of 500 basis points over the prevailing rate on the foregoing amounts, which difference between the default rate and the prevailing rate was not paid as of the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  On May 19, 2009, ComVest executed a waiver letter (the “Term Loan Waiver”) related to the Loan Agreement.  Pursuant to the Term Loan Waiver, ComVest waived the foregoing defaults, provided that ComVest reserved the right to collect at a later time, but not later than the maturity date of the Term Loan under the Loan Agreement, the increased interest ComVest was permitted to charge during the continuance of such defaults.
 
On January 29, 2009, in order to assist the Company in making the payments under the XRoads Agreement, as defined in Note 18 – Management and Employment Agreements, the Company and ComVest entered into Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Term Loan.  Pursuant to Amendment No. 1, the Term Loan installments due and payable on each of February 1, 2009, March 1, 2009, April 1, 2009 and May 1, 2009, respectively, will be reduced by an amount equal to the positive difference (if any) of (i) the lesser of (a) $50,000 or (b) the amount paid or payable to XRoads during the immediately preceding calendar month pursuant to the XRoads Agreement, minus (ii) the amount (if any) by which the aggregate Royalties collected during the immediately preceding calendar month exceeded $450,000. After the effective date of any termination of the XRoads Agreement, no reduction in any subsequent Term Loan installments will be permitted and, notwithstanding any extension beyond the initial four month term of the XRoads Agreement, ComVest will not be obligated to reduce any further Term Loan installments.  Amendment No. 1 also contains ComVest’s acknowledgment and consent to the Company’s amendment of the payment terms and payment schedule of the StaffBridge Note pursuant to the second Debt Extension Agreement described below.
 
The Loans mature on December 31, 2010 subject to certain prepayment requirements related to the Term Loan. The Loan Agreement provides that, subject to certain exceptions, the Company must prepay the Term Loan (i) in full upon certain transactions involving the sale or issuance of the majority of the outstanding stock of the Company, change of control of the Company or the sale of all or a material portion of the Company’s assets or (ii) in part to the extent of 30% of proceeds received from sales of certain securities of the Company.  Royalty payments received primarily from StaffChex and Select are segregated and solely used for the repayment of the Term Loan. To the extent that royalty receipts from these sources do not meet the minimum threshold of $200,000 per month, the Company must make up the difference from its operating cash.  In the event that royalty receipts from these sources exceed $450,000 in a given month, the Company may utilize the excess for operations or offset amounts owed on the ComVest Revolver at its discretion. The outstanding borrowings under the Loan Agreement are secured by all the assets of the Company.
 
Beginning with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2009, the Company must maintain certain fixed charge coverage ratios and must make all necessary adjustments to its system of internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures no later than December 31, 2009. Until all obligations owing to ComVest have been paid in full and the Revolver has been terminated, the Company must comply with various notice and other reporting covenants including, but not limited to, providing notice to ComVest upon the occurrence of certain events, periodically furnishing certain financial statements and other information to ComVest, maintaining its books and records and permitting inspection of such materials by ComVest upon reasonable request. At March 31, 2009, the Company was in compliance with the applicable notice and reporting requirements required under the ComVest Loan Agreement.
 
The Company paid to ComVest non-refundable closing fees in the amount of $530,000, charged to the Revolver, simultaneously with funding of the amounts payable to the Company under the Loan Agreement. In addition, the Company must pay to ComVest a monthly collateral monitoring, availability and administrative fee equal to 0.15% of the average daily principal amount outstanding under the Revolver during the preceding calendar month, up to $4,500 per month.
 
 
22

 
 
As of March 31, 2009, the outstanding balance on the Revolver and the Term Loan  was $2,150,000 and $7,118,049, respectively.
 
The Company utilized the proceeds of the Loans to repay approximately $1,050,000 pursuant to the M&T Restructure Agreement, as defined below, owed to M&T, a creditor of the Company and approximately $530,000 in closing costs and expenses.
 
On May 7, 2009, the Company entered into a non-binding term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) with ComVest outlining certain terms of restructuring the Revolver and Term Loan, subject to entering into final binding agreements between ComVest and the Company.  The Term Sheet contemplates converting the existing credit facility into a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “New Revolver”) in the principal amount of $10,500,000.
 
Loan Modification and Restructure Agreement with M&T
 
On February 23, 2007, pursuant to a Credit Agreement (the “M&T Credit Agreement”), the Company entered into credit facilities with M&T consisting of a $20 million revolving credit facility (“M&T Revolver”) expiring in February 2010 and a $3 million term loan (“M&T Term Loan”) expiring in February 2012.  In July 2007, the Company amended the M&T Credit Agreement to increase the M&T Term Loan to $5 million in the First Amendment to the M&T Credit Agreement. These credit facilities carried an interest rate of LIBOR plus between 1.50% and 2.25%, depending on the Company’s ratio of debt to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization. The available amount to be borrowed from the M&T Revolver was limited based upon ratios of accounts receivable and unbilled revenue. The M&T Revolver and M&T Term Loan contained certain financial covenants including leverage ratios and a fixed charge coverage ratio. On March 21, 2008, ClearPoint entered into the Second Amendment to M&T Credit Agreement, dated as of March 21, 2008, among ClearPoint and M&T. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the M&T Credit Agreement was amended, among other matters, as follows: (i) the aggregate amount of the revolving credit commitments was gradually reduced from $20 million to $15 million at March 21, 2008 and $4 million at June 30, 2008; (ii) the applicable margin, which is a component of the interest rate calculations, was increased to (a) 3.5% and 1.25% for any revolving credit loan that is a “Eurodollar Loan” and a “Base Rate Loan”, respectively (as defined in the M&T Credit Agreement), and (b) 4.5% and 2.25% for any M&T Term Loan that is a Eurodollar Loan and a Base Rate Loan, respectively; (iii) the applicable commitment fee percentage, which is included in the calculations of commitment fees payable by the Company on the amount of the unused revolving credit commitments, was increased to 0.25%; and (iv) the covenants related to the ratios of total debt or senior debt, as applicable, to modified EBITDA were amended to lower the ratios as of September 30, 2008.
 
On April 14, 2008, the Company entered into a Waiver (the “M&T Waiver”) to the M&T Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the M&T Waiver, the required lenders under the M&T Credit Agreement waived compliance with certain financial covenants set forth in the M&T Credit Agreement for the period ended December 31, 2007. In connection with the M&T Waiver, the Company paid a $100,000 fee to M&T. The Company was not in compliance with the financial and reporting covenants at March 31, 2008. The Company did not receive a waiver for such non-compliance from M&T. On May 9, 2008, the Company received a letter from M&T indicating, among other matters, that the principal amount of revolving credit loans outstanding under the M&T Credit Agreement shall be limited to a maximum amount of $7.3 million for the period ended May 16, 2008.
 
On May 21, 2008, the Company received a notice of default from M&T in connection with the M&T Credit Agreement. The Company defaulted on its obligations under the M&T Credit Agreement as a result of its failure to comply with financial covenants contained in the M&T Credit Agreement, including obligations to maintain certain leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios. As a consequence of the default, M&T exercised its right to declare all outstanding obligations under the credit facilities to be immediately due and payable and demanded the immediate payment of approximately $12.8 million, consisting of approximately (i) $7.4 million under the M&T Revolver; (ii) $3.9 million under the M&T Term Loan; and (iii) $1.5 million under a letter of credit. Also pursuant to the notice of default, M&T exercised its right to terminate the M&T Revolver and the M&T Term Loan and to terminate its obligation to make any additional loans or issue additional letters of credit to the Company.

In connection with the Loan Agreement with ComVest described above, the Company and M&T entered into a Loan Modification and Restructure Agreement dated June 20, 2008 (the “M&T Restructure Agreement”) pursuant to which the parties agreed to: (i) consolidate the M&T revolving credit loan of $7,065,809 and the M&T term loan of $3,866,667 (the “M&T Obligations”), (ii) reduce the carrying amount of the consolidated obligations from $10,932,476 to $8,600,000, net of cash payments made during the negotiations, (iii) subordinate the M&T Obligations to the Company’s obligations to ComVest (the “ComVest Obligations”) and (iv) permit the Company to repay the M&T Obligations on a deferred term basis. The M&T Restructure Agreement provides that on the earlier of the first day of the calendar month following the Company’s full satisfaction of the ComVest Obligations or January 1, 2011 (the “Obligations Amortization Date”), the Company shall repay a total of $3 million in principal amount (the “M&T Deferred Obligations”) to M&T in 36 equal monthly payments plus interest on the outstanding balance of such amount at a rate of 5% per annum, subject to increase to 12% per annum upon occurrence of certain agreement termination events and spring back events, as set forth in the agreement. In the event of a sale of substantially all of the Company’s or any subsidiary’s assets, a capital infusion or an infusion of subordinated indebtedness, the Company must prepay the M&T Deferred Obligations by an amount equal to 25% of such proceeds as are payable to ComVest under such circumstances.
 
In addition, prior to the Obligations Amortization Date, the Company must pay M&T: (i) cash proceeds arising out of certain of its and its subsidiaries’ accounts receivable in an amount not less than $3 million and (ii) existing and future federal and state income tax refunds of not less than $1 million due or which become due to the Company for any period prior to January 1, 2008.  In the event such payments by the Company are less than the stated minimum amounts, such shortfall will be added to the M&T Deferred Obligations.  Excesses of either amounts paid by the Company will be remitted to the Company and/or applied to the M&T Deferred Obligations in accordance with the M&T Restructure Agreement.  The Company remitted all applicable federal and state income tax refunds to M&T required under the M&T Restructure Agreement.  At March 31, 2009, income tax refunds of $1,024,000 resulting from net operating loss carry-backs and $88,000 refunds of overpayments were received by the Company and remitted to M&T.  At March 31, 2009, the Company remitted to M&T a total of approximately $2,417,000, which was comprised of approximately $1,305,000 applied to the $3 million accounts receivable target and $1,112,000 applied to the $1 million federal and state income tax refund target.  The excess of $112,000 over the $1 million tax refund target will be credited to the M&T Deferred Obligations.  At March 31, 2009, the outstanding balance related to the $3 million accounts receivable target was $1,582,786.
 
The Company issued to M&T warrants to purchase, in the aggregate, 1,500,000 shares of its common stock, of which warrants to purchase 1,200,000 shares have an exercise price of $0.01 and warrants to purchase 300,000 shares have an exercise price of $1.00. In accordance with SFAS 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity” (“SFAS 150”), the fair value of all of the warrants has been classified as a liability since M&T has the right to put the warrants back to the Company in exchange for a cash settlement of $1.00 per share. The Company valued the warrants at $1,247,246 using the Black-Scholes valuation model and the value was offset against the gain on restructuring of debt.  At March 31, 2009, the Company’s consolidated balance sheet included a warrant liability of $1,266,016 related to the fair value of warrants issued to M&T in connection with the M&T Restructure Agreement.

The Company accounted for the M&T Restructure Agreement pursuant to SFAS No. 15, “Accounting by Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructurings” (“SFAS No. 15”), which required the Company to reduce the carrying amount of the old debt (M&T Obligations of $10,932,476) by the minimum cash value of the put option of the warrants issued ($1,200,000) and the warrant liability of $47,246, and determine whether the carrying value of the remaining debt exceeded the future cash payments of the new debt (M&T Loan Modification of $8,600,000 and future interest payment of $218,750.  SFAS No. 15 also requires that the new debt be recorded as the total of future cash payments.   The excess of the carrying amount of the remaining debt over the future cash payments of the new debt was $866,480, which was reduced by the unamortized deferred financed cost and current refinancing cost of $179,683. As a result of the application of SFAS No. 15, the Company recorded a gain of $686,797 ($0.05 per share), which is reflected in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2008.
 
M&T had issued (i) a certain certificate of deposit to the Company in the amount of $1.5 million (the “COD”) and (ii) a certain standby letter of credit for the account of the Company in favor of Ace Risk Management (the “Ace Letter of Credit”). M&T liquidated the COD and applied $600,000 of the COD to the M&T Obligations. To the extent M&T is required to make payments under the Ace Letter of Credit in excess of $900,000 at any time, such excess shall be added to the M&T Deferred Obligations. Excesses of such amount paid will be remitted to the Company and/or applied to the M&T Deferred Obligations in accordance with the M&T Restructure Agreement.
 
Pursuant to the M&T Restructure Agreement, the Company must comply with various covenants while the M&T Deferred Obligations are outstanding and provided that (i) no bankruptcy or insolvency event has taken place and (ii) the Company and/or its subsidiaries have not terminated operation of their business without the prior written consent of M&T (each being a “Spring Back Event”). Such covenants include, but are not limited to: delivery to M&T of financial and other information delivered to ComVest; restrictions on the aggregate compensation which may be paid to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company; limitations on dividends and distributions of cash or property to equity security holders of the Company and/or redemptions or purchases of capital stock or equity securities of other entities; restrictions on collateralizing subordinated indebtedness. At March 31, 2009, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants set forth in the M&T Restructure Agreement.
 
The M&T Restructure Agreement provides that the Company may continue to pay regularly scheduled payments (but not prepayments or accelerated payments) on (i) existing subordinated indebtedness, except to the extent prohibited by the ComVest transaction documents and (ii) the Blue Lake Note as defined below. For each $50,000 paid on account of the Blue Lake Note, Michael D. Traina, the Company’s Chairman of the board of directors and Chief Executive Officer, and Christopher Ferguson, a principal stockholder of the Company, shall, on a several basis, be liable as sureties for the M&T Deferred Obligations, each in the amount of $10,000, subject to an aggregate amount of each surety’s liability of $150,000.
 
The M&T Restructure Agreement does not terminate or extinguish any of the liens or security interests granted to M&T pursuant to the M&T Credit Agreement and related documents.
 
Deferred Financing Costs
 
Amortization of deferred financing costs related to M&T, for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was $0 and $11,792 respectively. The balance of the deferred financing costs related to the M&T financing of $78,614 was offset against the gain on the restructuring of debt during 2008.  Amortization of deferred financing costs related to ComVest for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was $67,056 and $0, respectively.
 
Note Payable to Blue Lake Rancheria
 
On March 1, 2005, CPR issued a Promissory Note (“Blue Lake Note”) to Blue Lake Rancheria, a fully recognized Indian tribe (“Blue Lake”), for $1,290,000 in principal amount guaranteed by Messrs. Traina and Ferguson. The Blue Lake Note matured on March 31, 2008. Effective March 31, 2008, CPR amended and restated the Blue Lake Note and extended its maturity date under the Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2008, by and between CPR and Blue Lake (the “Blue Lake Agreement”). Pursuant to the Blue Lake Agreement, on April 14, 2008, CPR and Blue Lake entered into an Amended and Restated Promissory Note (“Amended Blue Lake Note”) with a principal amount of $1,290,000, which was due and payable as follows: (i) $200,000 was paid on April 8, 2008; (ii) $50,000 is payable on the first business day of each calendar month for 12 consecutive months (totaling $600,000 in the aggregate), the first payment to occur on May 1, 2008, and the last to occur on April 1, 2009; and (iii) on April 30, 2009, CPR was obligated to pay to Blue Lake the balance of the principal amount, equal to $490,000, plus accrued interest. The interest rate on the Amended Blue Lake Note was increased from 6% to 10% per annum. ClearPoint agreed to issue 900,000 shares (“Escrow Shares”) of ClearPoint’s common stock in the name of Blue Lake to be held in escrow, pursuant to an escrow agreement, as security for the payment of the principal amount and interest under the Amended Blue Lake Note.
 
 
25

 
 
CPR did not make the required payments of: (i) $50,000 in January, 2009 and (ii) $490,000, plus accrued interest of $32,744, in April, 2009 under the Amended Blue Lake Note.  On May 1, 2009, the Company received a notice from Blue Lake indicating CPR’s failure to pay such amounts and demanding that the Company immediately pay a total of approximately $572,744.  Pursuant to the terms of the Amended Blue Lake Note, CPR’s failure to make the foregoing payments when due constitutes an event of default if not cured within five business days of receipt of written notice from Blue Lake.  The Company did not cure such default on or prior to May 8, 2009.  On May 7, 2009, Blue Lake requested disbursement of the Escrow Shares and, pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the escrow agent is obligated to deliver the Escrow Shares to Blue Lake 10 calendar days after receipt of the request for disbursement.
 
An event of default under the Amended Blue Lake Note triggers a cross-default provision pursuant to the Loan Agreement with ComVest.  In addition, a default under the Loan Agreement would trigger a cross-default provision pursuant to the M&T Restructure Agreement unless the default under the Loan Agreement is waived in writing by ComVest.  On May 13, 2009, ComVest executed a waiver letter (the “Blue Lake Waiver”) to the Loan Agreement.  Pursuant to the Blue Lake Waiver, effective May 1, 2009, ComVest waived the cross-default provision which was triggered by CPR’s failure to make the payments due under the Amended Blue Lake Note and all remedies available to ComVest as a result of the failure to make such payments provided that such payments due under the Amended Blue Lake Note are paid solely in Escrow Shares.  Blue Lake and the Company are discussing whether the issuance of the Escrow Shares will constitute the full satisfaction of CPR’s obligations under the Amended Blue Lake Note.
 
Sub Notes
 
On March 1, 2005, CPR issued Amended and Restated Notes (collectively, the “Sub Notes”) to each of Matthew Kingfield, B&N Associates, LLC, Alyson P. Drew and Fergco Bros. LLC (collectively, the “Sub Noteholders”) for $50,000, $100,000, $100,000 and $300,000, respectively. Ms. Drew is the spouse of ClearPoint’s director Parker Drew. Fergco Bros. LLC (“Fergco”) is twenty-five percent (25%) owned by Mr. Ferguson, a principal stockholder of the Company.
 
Effective March 31, 2008, CPR amended and restated the Sub Notes and extended their maturity dates to March 31, 2009 (collectively, the “Amended Sub Notes”).  All sums outstanding from time to time under each Amended Sub Note bear the same interest of 12% per annum as under the Sub Note, payable quarterly, with all principal payable on the maturity date. CPR’s failure to make any payment of principal or interest under the Amended Sub Note when such payment is due constitutes an event of default, if such default remains uncured for 5 business days after written notice of such failure is given to CPR by the Sub Noteholder.  Upon an event of default and at the election of the Sub Noteholder, the Sub Note, both as to principal and accrued but unpaid interest, will become immediately due and payable.  As of March 31, 2009, ClearPoint made all required interest payments on the Amended Sub Notes.
 
In consideration of each Sub Noteholder agreeing to extend the maturity date of the Sub Note, ClearPoint issued warrants (“Initial Sub Note Warrants”) to the Sub Noteholders to purchase, in the aggregate, 82,500 shares of common stock (the “Sub Note Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of $1.55 per share. The Initial Sub Note Warrant is immediately exercisable during the period commencing on March 31, 2008 and ending on March 31, 2010. CPR had the right in its sole discretion, to extend the maturity date of the Amended Sub Notes to March 31, 2010, and in connection with such extension, the Sub Noteholders had the right to receive additional Sub Note Warrants (the “Additional Sub Note Warrants”) to purchase, in the aggregate, an additional 82,500 shares of common stock.
 
 
26

 
 
On June 20, 2008, CPR exercised its right to extend the maturity date of the Amended Sub Notes to March 31, 2010 and, in connection with such extension, the Sub Noteholders received Additional Sub Note Warrants to purchase 82,500 Sub Note Warrant Shares at an exercise price of $1.55 per share. The Additional Sub Note Warrant is immediately exercisable during the period commencing on June 20, 2008 and ending on March 31, 2011.  At June 30, 2008, the Company valued the warrants at $7,619 using the Black-Scholes valuation model and they were expensed under selling, general and administrative expenses.  The exercise price and the number of Sub Note Warrant Shares are subject to adjustment in certain events, including a stock split and reverse stock split.
 
In connection with the Loan Agreement with ComVest described above, ComVest entered into a Subordination Agreement dated June 20, 2008 (the “Noteholder Subordination Agreement”) with each of the Sub Noteholders and CPR. Pursuant to the Noteholder Subordination Agreement, the Sub Noteholders agreed to subordinate the Company’s obligations to them under the Amended Sub Notes to the ComVest Obligations. So long as no event of default under the ComVest Loan Agreement has occurred, the Company may continue to make scheduled payments of principal and accrued interest when due in accordance with the Sub Notes, as amended. In the case of an event of default under the Loan Agreement with ComVest, the Company may not pay and the Sub Noteholders may not seek payment on the Sub Notes, as amended, until the ComVest Obligations have been satisfied in full. The Noteholder Subordination Agreement also sets forth priorities among the parties with respect to distributions of the Company’s assets made for the benefit of the Company’s creditors.
 
Note Payable to ALS, LLC
 
In connection with the transaction with ComVest described above, on June 20, 2008, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement dated June 20, 2008 (the “ALS Agreement”) with ALS, LLC and its subsidiaries whereby the parties agreed, among other things: (i) to execute the ALS Subordination Letter dated June 20, 2008, as defined below; (ii) to amend the ALS Note (see Note 4 – Business and Asset Acquisitions and Dispositions and Licensing Agreements for a description of the ALS Note) to provide for an outstanding principal amount of $2,155,652 (remaining principal balance of $2,022,991 plus accrued interest of $132,661) bearing interest at a rate of 5% per annum (a reduction from 7%) payable in 24 equal monthly installments, commencing January 2014, payable as permitted pursuant to the ALS Subordination Letter; (iii) that the Company would issue 350,000 shares of common stock to ALS (the “ALS Shares”) in accordance with the ALS Acquisition; (iv) that ALS may defend and indemnify the Company in connection with the TSIL Litigation, as defined in Note 20 – Litigation, and (v) that the parties will take all appropriate actions to dismiss their claims against each other in connection with the TSIL Litigation.
 
The transaction was not classified as a restructuring of debt. The Company valued the ALS Shares at their fair market value as of the date of issuance of $101,500 and recorded that amount as an expense during the year ended December 31, 2008.
 
Pursuant to a Subordination Letter sent by ALS to ComVest, M&T and the Company dated June 20, 2008 (the “ALS Subordination Letter”), ALS agreed that the Company may not make and ALS may not receive payments on the ALS Note, provided however, that (i) upon payment in full of all obligations under the Term Loan owing to ComVest and so long as the Company is permitted to make such payments, the Company shall make monthly interest payments on the outstanding principal balance of the ALS Note and (ii) upon payment in full of the M&T Obligations, the Company shall make 24 equal monthly installments on the ALS Note, as amended pursuant to the ALS Agreement described above.  For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company accrued $27,405 and $9,799, respectively, in interest expense associated with the ALS Note.  As of March 31, 2009, the Company had $85,503 of accrued interest payable recorded on its consolidated balance sheet associated with the ALS Note.

On December 31, 2007, the note payable to former shareholders of StaffBridge, Inc. for purchase of the common stock of StaffBridge, Inc. (“StaffBridge Note”) dated August 14, 2006 was amended from an original maturity date of December 31, 2007 to a new maturity date of June 30, 2008. In addition, the amount of the StaffBridge Note was increased to $486,690 for accrued interest and the interest rate was increased to eight percent from six percent per annum payable in monthly installments starting January 15, 2008. The Company incurred an origination fee in the amount of $19,467, which equaled four percent of the principal amount in the form of 9,496 shares of common stock of the Company. This fee was charged to interest expense.
 
In addition, in connection with the financing transaction with ComVest, on June 30, 2008, the former shareholders of StaffBridge, Inc. (the “StaffBridge Shareholders”), executed a Debt Extension Agreement (the “Debt Extension Agreement”) and entered into a Subordination Agreement (the “StaffBridge Subordination Agreement”) with ComVest and CPR.
 
Pursuant to the Debt Extension Agreement, the StaffBridge Shareholders agreed that, in connection with the receipt from the Company of $150,000 payable for work performed by TSP 2, Inc., an entity controlled by certain StaffBridge Shareholders and a contractor for the Company (“TSP”), the StaffBridge Note was amended, effective June 30, 2008, to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2008 and to reduce the outstanding principal amount to $336,690.
 
Effective December 31, 2008, the StaffBridge Note was further amended pursuant to a second Debt Extension Agreement dated December 31, 2008 to provide for the following payment schedule of the outstanding amount due under the StaffBridge Note: $100,000 was paid on January 12, 2009 and the remaining balance shall be paid in four equal quarterly payments of $59,172, beginning on March 31, 2009, which was made, and ending on December 31, 2009.  Amendment No. 1 to the ComVest Loan Agreement contains ComVest’s acknowledgment and consent to the Company’s amendment of the payment terms and payment schedule of the StaffBridge Note pursuant to the second Debt Extension Agreement.
 
Pursuant to the StaffBridge Subordination Agreement, the StaffBridge Shareholders agreed to subordinate the Company’s obligations to them under the StaffBridge Note to the ComVest Obligations. So long as no event of default under the Loan Agreement with ComVest has occurred, the Company may continue to make scheduled payments of principal and accrued interest when due in accordance with the StaffBridge Note. In the case of an event of default under the Loan Agreement, the Company may not pay and the StaffBridge Shareholders may not seek payment on the StaffBridge Note until the ComVest Obligations have been satisfied in full. The Subordination Agreement also sets forth priorities among the parties with respect to distributions of the Company’s assets made for the benefit of the Company’s creditors.

On June 6, 2008, the Company issued notes (the “Original Bridge Notes”) to each of Messrs. Traina, Drew and TerraNova Partners, L.P. (“TerraNova Partners” and, together with Messrs. Traina and Drew, the “Bridge Lenders”) in the principal amounts of $104,449, $50,000 and $100,000, respectively.

During the course of negotiations with ComVest, Mr. Traina agreed to loan an additional $5,000 to the Company. On June 26, 2008, the Company issued amended and restated Original Bridge Notes (the “Amended Bridge Notes”) to each Bridge Lender. The Amended Bridge Notes contained identical terms and provided that (i) the principal amount of the Amended Bridge Notes would bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, payable quarterly and (ii) the Company had the right to repay the Amended Bridge Notes in shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on June 26, 2008. The Amended Bridge Notes did not contain the provision stating that the principal balance will bear interest only upon demand for payment by the Bridge Lender, as provided in the Original Bridge Note.

NOTE 13— FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:
 
The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 157, which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value.
 
The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value as follows:
 
Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.
 
Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other then quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
 
Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.
 
The following tables present the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 14 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
 
Leases:
 
The Company typically leases offices and equipment under operating leases that expire over one to four years. Future minimum rental payments required under operating leases that have remaining lease terms in excess of one year as of March 31, 2009 were as follows (unaudited):
 
Remainder of fiscal 2009                                                                                                     
  $ 157,970

Total                                                                                                     
  $ 271,101  
 
The above lease commitments do not include future minimum rental payments that have been accrued for in restructuring costs (see Note 10 – Accrued Restructuring Costs).  Rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was $39,866 and $51,023, respectively.
 
Employee Benefit Plan:
 
In 1991, Quantum Resources Corporation (“Quantum”) established a savings and profit sharing (IRC Section 401(k)) plan (“Plan”). The Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Quantum on July 29, 2005 and, as a result, assumed the Plan.  As of January 1, 2006, the Plan was amended to include additional employees of Quantum and to meet Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) safe harbor provisions. Employees are eligible to participate upon their date of hire. Participants may elect to defer a percentage of their compensation subject to the IRS limit on elective deferrals. The Plan also allows for a discretionary Company match of elective deferrals that will vest on a three-year cliff vesting schedule. There was no Company match for the Plan year ended September 30, 2005. Effective October 1, 2005, the Company elected to change the Plan’s fiscal year ending date to December 31. There was no Company match for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.
 
Retirement Benefit Liability:
 
Upon its acquisition of Quantum, the Company assumed a stock purchase agreement dated December 30, 1986 with a former owner. The agreement called for the payment of retirement benefits in equal monthly payments, adjusted for the cost of living increases equal to the Consumer Price Index. The former owner is entitled to these benefits until his death.
 
The Company recorded an estimated liability of $220,066 based upon the expected remaining life of the former owner, and made payments of $62,480 and $78,126 in the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Estimated future payments to the former owner are as follows:

NOTE 15 — FRANCHISE AGREEMENTS:

On August 30, 2007, the Company entered into the agreement with KOR, a Florida limited liability company controlled by Kevin O’Donnell, a former officer of the Company, pursuant to which the Company granted to KOR an exclusive right and license (i) to set up and operate, in parts of Northern California and Florida, a franchise of the Company’s system and procedures for the operation of light industrial and clerical temporary staffing services and (ii) to use in connection with the operation certain of the Company’s proprietary intellectual property. The Agreement with KOR replaced the agreement between the Company and KOR entered on July 9, 2007. In consideration for the grant and license, KOR was required to pay to the Company, on a weekly basis, a royalty equal to 4.5% of all gross revenues earned by KOR from its operations. KOR also agreed to pay the Company, on a weekly basis, a royalty equal to 50% of its net income from its operations.  On August 13, 2007, the Company entered into the TZG Agreement with TZG pursuant to which the Company granted to TZG an exclusive right and license (i) to set up and operate a franchise of the Company’s system and procedures for the operation of transportation and light industrial temporary staffing services and (ii) to use in connection with the operation certain of the Company’s proprietary intellectual property. In consideration for the grant and license, TZG was required to pay to the Company, on a weekly basis, a royalty equal to 6% of all gross revenues earned by TZG from the operation.
 
Through these relationships, KOR and TZG operated and managed up to twelve and up to twenty-five, respectively, of the Company’s former branches.  Under these agreements, the Company processed the weekly payroll for all temporary and contract staff placed on assignment by the franchisee and their weekly invoices. Each of these agreements had a term of 99 years, subject to earlier termination upon certain material breaches or defaults.  The KOR agreement was terminated on March 5, 2008, and the TZG agreement was terminated on February 28, 2008.
 
NOTE 16 — INCOME TAXES:
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between income and expenses reported for financial reporting and tax reporting. The Company is required to record a valuation allowance to reduce its net deferred tax assets to the amount that it believes is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company historically had considered all positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, prudent and feasible tax planning strategies and recent financial performance. The Company determined that the negative evidence, including historic and current losses, as well as uncertainties related to the ability to utilize Federal and state net loss carry-forwards, outweighed any objectively verifiable positive factors, and as such, concluded that a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets was necessary. In the first quarter of fiscal 2008, the deferred tax asset balance as of December 31, 2007 of $5,007,180 was offset by a 100% valuation allowance.  For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company recorded an additional income tax benefit of $111,685 and $7,540,023, respectively, which were offset by a 100% valuation allowance of $111,685 and $7,540,023, respectively.
 
The establishment of the deferred tax asset allowance does not preclude the Company from reversing a portion or all of the allowance in future periods if the Company believes the positive evidence is sufficient enough to utilize at least a portion of the deferred tax assets, nor does it limit the ability to utilize losses for tax purposes, subject to loss carry-forward limitations and periods permitted by tax law.
 
The Company filed all applicable federal and state income tax returns to enable it to receive the minimum amount required under the M&T Restructure Agreement and remit the funds directly to M&T in satisfaction of that portion of the Company’s obligation (see Note 11 – Long-Term Debt). During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company received and remitted approximately $1,058,000 in federal and state tax refunds to M&T.  During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company received and remitted approximately $55,760 in federal and state tax refunds to M&T.

On January 13, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement (the “XRoads Agreement”) with XRoads Solutions Group, LLC (“XRoads”). Pursuant to the XRoads Agreement, among other matters, XRoads agreed to provide the services of Brian Delle Donne to serve as the Company’s Interim Chief Operating Officer.  The term of the XRoads Agreement commenced on January 13, 2009 and continued until May 13, 2009.  Effective May 14, 2009, the XRoads Agreement was amended pursuant to Amendment No. 1 dated May 18, 2009 (the “XRoads Amendment”).  Pursuant to the XRoads Amendment, the term of the XRoads Agreement was extended to run from May 14, 2009 through August 13, 2009 (the “XRoads Extension”).
 
 
36

 
 
The Company paid XRoads $50,000 per month for each of the first four months of Mr. Delle Donne’s services.  In addition, XRoads is entitled to a monthly fee based upon achievement of certain increases in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), calculated pursuant to the XRoads Agreement. Such fee is equal to 10% of increases in monthly EBITDA during the term of the XRoads Agreement over EBITDA for the month ended January 31, 2009, capped at $50,000 per month (the “EBITDA Fee”).  During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company paid no EBITDA Fees to XRoads.  The Company also agreed to pay reasonable expenses incurred by XRoads for services related to its services and remitted a retainer in the amount of $10,000 to XRoads for such purpose.  During the three months ended March 31, 2009, pursuant to the XRoads Agreement, the Company paid XRoads a total of $150,000 and the $10,000 retainer for reimbursement of expenses. Any amounts not paid when due pursuant to the XRoads Agreement will bear interest at an annual rate of 12% or the maximum rate allowed by law, whichever is less.
 
The terms and conditions of the original XRoads Agreement which were not affected by the XRoads Amendment will remain in full force and effect during the XRoads Extension.  The Company agreed to pay XRoads $45,000 per 30 day period of the XRoads Extension and the EBITDA Fee will remain at 10%, calculated in accordance with the XRoads Amendment, and subject to the cap of $50,000 per month.  In addition, pursuant to the XRoads Amendment, in the event Mr. Delle Donne is hired by the Company, the Company agreed to pay XRoads an aggregate of $250,000 as liquidated damages.  This amount is payable in the form of (i) $100,000 of cash due on Mr. Delle Donne’s hire date, (ii) a warrant to purchase the Company’s common stock with a value of $100,000 based on the closing price on the day Mr. Delle Donne begins employment and (iii) a $50,000 promissory note bearing interest at 8% payable in four quarterly installments at the end of each calendar quarter following the start of Mr. Delle Donne’s employment.
 
In addition, the Company issued XRoads a warrant to purchase up to 100,000 shares of common stock at the exercise price of $0.12 per share, exercisable through December 31, 2010 in connection with the expiration of the XRoads Agreement on May 13, 2009.  In connection with the XRoads Extension, the Company is obligated to issue an additional warrant to purchase 75,000 shares of common stock with an expiration date of April 30, 2011.
 
In the event the Company elects to pursue a financing (either in the form of debt or equity) within one year of the date of the XRoads Agreement, XRoads shall serve as its non-exclusive financial advisor for such financing in accordance with the terms of the XRoads Agreement. If such financing is consummated pursuant to the terms set forth in the XRoads Agreement, the Company agreed to pay XRoads a transaction fee based on the type and value of the transaction. The transaction fee will be prorated accordingly in the event the Company retains an additional financial advisor in connection with the transaction, but such fee shall not be less than $75,000 if XRoads’ efforts result in an bona fide financing alternative.
 
In the event of a material breach of the XRoads Agreement by either party, including, but not limited to, the Company’s failure to promptly pay amounts due for services rendered or for reimbursement of expenses, the non-breaching party may terminate the XRoads Agreement at any time thereafter upon 5 days advance notice.  For a description of Amendment No. 1 to the Term Loan issued by ComVest in connection with the XRoads Agreement, as amended, see Note 11 – Debt Obligations.

NOTE 20 — LITIGATION:
 
Temporary Services Insurance Ltd.
 
On September 21, 2007, Temporary Services Insurance Ltd. (“TSIL”), which claims to be a captive reinsurance company offering workers’ compensation insurance to its shareholders through an insurance program, filed a complaint (the “TSIL Litigation”) in the U.S. District Court in Florida against ALS, Advantage Services Group, LLC (“Advantage Services”), certain officers and shareholders of ALS and Advantage Services as well as certain other third party companies (collectively, the “ALS Defendants”) alleging that it was owed at least $2,161,172 in unpaid insurance assessments, as well as other requested damages, from the ALS Defendants. Kevin O’Donnell, a former officer of the ALS companies and a named defendant in the TSIL Litigation, controls KOR, a former franchisee of the Company.
 
 
40

 

The Company is also named as a defendant because it acquired certain assets from ALS and its wholly owned subsidiaries, including Advantage Services Group II, LLC (“ASG II”), in February 2007, for which it paid a portion of the purchase price at closing to the ALS Defendants, through ALS. It is alleged that this transfer rendered ASG II, one of the named insureds on the TSIL policy, insolvent and unable to pay the insurance assessments and damages owed to TSIL. TSIL requested in its complaint that its damages be satisfied from the assets transferred to the Company.  Agreements related to the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of ALS in February 2007 contain provisions under which the Company may seek indemnification from ALS in connection with the foregoing. the Company intends to pursue all appropriate claims for such indemnification and cannot estimate the potential liability, if any.
 
On January 11, 2008, the Company filed its Answer denying all claims in the TSIL Litigation and also filed a Crossclaim against ALS making claims for contractual and common law indemnity. ALS filed its Answer to the Company’s Crossclaim, denying all claims, and filed a Counterclaim asking for a declaratory judgment that it does not have to indemnify the Company and asserting a breach of contract claim based on an alleged failure to pay ALS certain amounts due under the ALS Note arising out of the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of ALS in February 2007. The court in the TSIL Litigation entered an order dated February 22, 2008 (the “TSIL Order”), requiring the Company not to make any payments to ALS pursuant to the purchase agreement without first seeking leave of court.
 
On or about June 20, 2008, in connection with ALS’ agreement to subordinate the ALS Note to ComVest and M&T, ALS and its subsidiaries and certain other individuals (the “ALS Parties”) entered into a letter agreement with the Company (the “ALS Agreement”). Pursuant to the ALS Agreement, the ALS Parties and the Company agreed, among other things, as follows:
 
 
·
That the ALS Parties acknowledge their obligation to indemnify the Company in connection with the TSIL Litigation, subject to certain sections of the ALS purchase agreement;
 
 
·
That the ALS Parties shall be responsible for the Company’s attorney’s fees incurred in the TSIL Litigation from June 20, 2008, not to exceed $300,000;
 
 
·
That the ALS Parties and the Company shall take all appropriate actions to dismiss all of their respective claims against one another in the TSIL Litigation, and that following such dismissal, the Company shall cooperate as reasonably requested by the ALS Parties in connection with the TSIL Litigation including consenting in connection with a request to lift the TSIL Order, or otherwise permit payment to the ALS Parties in accordance with the terms of the ALS purchase agreement and the ALS Note; and
 
 
·
In addition, the Company agreed not to assert its right to set off from the Note any other amounts in connection with the TSIL Litigation until such time (if at all) as a final judgment is entered against the Company in the TSIL Litigation, or the amount of TSIL’s claims against the Company are liquidated by settlement or otherwise.
 
ALS did not elect to provide a defense to the Company, and the Company remains represented by its own counsel. On November 21, 2008, a joint stipulation for voluntary dismissal was filed with the court pursuant to which the Company and ALS jointly dismissed such claims with prejudice. On December 8, 2008, the court entered an order dismissing all claims between the Company and ALS with prejudice. The litigation between TSIL and ALS is currently concluding its fact discovery phase and commencing its expert discovery phase.
 
James W. Brown et al.
 
On or about October 29, 2007, the Company received a copy of a letter sent by a law firm to the California Labor & Workforce Development Agency, pursuant to which such law firm sought permission under the California Labor Code Private Attorney General Act of 2004 to file a complaint against the Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and ALS and one of its subsidiaries, on behalf of a class of employees currently and formerly employed by the defendants in California (the employees had not been named). On January 30, 2008, James W. Brown (“Brown”), on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, on behalf of the general public and as an “aggrieved employee” under the California Labor Code Private Attorneys General Act, filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California (Alameda County) (the “Brown Litigation”) against ClearPoint Advantage, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of CPR (“CP Advantage”). Agreements related to the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of ALS in February 2007 contain provisions under which the Company may seek indemnification from ALS in connection with the foregoing. the Company intends to pursue all appropriate claims for such indemnification.
 
 
41

 
 
The complaint in the Brown Litigation alleges that CP Advantage (i) failed to pay overtime compensation to employees who worked a 4/10 schedule but did not work a 4 day week (Calif. Labor Code Section 1194 and 2699(f)) to him and to all California employees similarly situated, (ii) failed to pay wages at the end of the assignment (Calif. Labor Code Sections 201, 202 and 203 and 2699(f)) to him and to all California employees similarly situated, (iii) failed to pay all wages due on termination (Calif. Labor Code Sections 204 and/or 204b and 2699(f)) to him and to all California employees similarly situated, (iv) failed to provide proper itemized wage statements (Calif. Labor Code Section 226(a)) to him and to all California employees similarly situated, and (v) issued checks with no in-state address for presentation that could not be cashed on demand and without a fee (Calif. Labor Code Section 212 and 2699(f)) to him and to all California employees similarly situated. On March 25, 2008, CP Advantage filed its Answer and denied all claims. In addition, on March 26, 2008, CP Advantage filed a Notice of Removal to remove the Brown Litigation to the United States District Court of the Northern District of California. Brown sought unspecified penalties, damages, interest, attorneys’ fees, costs of suit and, in relation to the claim regarding the alleged issuance of checks drawn on out-of-state banks with no in-state address for presentation, an injunction to preclude such alleged conduct.
 
On November 17, 2008, a settlement was reached and as part of such settlement the lawsuit was dismissed. With respect to the claim relating to the issuance of paychecks to Brown and other similarly situated California employees with no in-state address listed on the checks, and which could not be cashed without fee and on demand, the parties agreed to toll the statute of limitations until June 30, 2010, so that if any action is later brought based on those same claims, the statute of limitations on those claims will relate back to January 30, 2008.
 
APX Holdings, LLC
 
On or about March 4, 2008, Richard K. Diamond, Chapter 7 Trustee (“Trustee”) for In Re APX Holdings, LLC et al., filed a complaint (the “APX Litigation”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court in California against ASG Northern California, Advantage Services Group, the Company and MVI, alleging, among other things, that APX Holdings, LLC and other related parties (collectively, the “Debtors”) made transfers to the defendants within ninety (90) days prior to March 16, 2006 (Debtors’ petition date).  Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint on March 14, 2008. Plaintiff alleged that those transfers had been made to or for the benefit of the defendants as creditors of the Debtors and that the transfers had been made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by one or more of the Debtors before the transfers had been made. Plaintiff also alleged that the transfers had been made while the Debtors were insolvent. Plaintiff made similar claims alleging that the transfers constituted the receipt of an interest of the Debtors in property and that the Debtors had received less than a reasonably equivalent value from the defendants in exchange for the transfers. Plaintiff claimed that the defendants owed plaintiff at least $506,000 plus interest and costs and such other relief deemed proper by the court.
 
The Company was named as a defendant in the APX Litigation because it had acquired certain assets from ALS and its wholly owned subsidiaries, which referred to themselves collectively as Advantage Services Group, in February 2007. All of the transfers alleged in the APX Litigation took place almost a year prior to the time that the Company consummated the asset acquisition with ALS.
 
On June 27, 2008, the Trustee filed a Stipulation dismissing the Company and MVI from the APX Litigation.
 
Alliance Consulting Group Associates, Inc.
 
On April 25, 2008, Alliance Consulting Group Associates, Inc.

Leon R. Cobaugh
 
On or about October 20, 2008, Leon R. Cobaugh (“Cobaugh”) filed a complaint in the Circuit Court for Chesterfield County of the Commonwealth of Virginia against the Company and Quantum.

XL Specialty Insurance Company
 
On November 10, 2008, XL Specialty Insurance Company (“XL”) filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (New York County), and, on December 9, 2008, XL filed an amended complaint (the “XL Complaint”) alleging that, among other things, XL issued workers’ compensation insurance policies to CP Advantage during 2007 and CP Advantage failed to make certain payments with regard to claims made against CP Advantage under the policies and maintain collateral required by the insurance policy documents. XL seeks to recover from the Company, as a guarantor of CP Advantage’s obligations under the insurance policies, $745,548, in the aggregate, in connection with certain claims against and pursuant to the collateral obligations of, CP Advantage. XL, in addition to damages, seeks pre-judgment interest, attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses and such other relief deemed proper by the court.  The Company filed its answer in this matter on February 17, 2009 and contends that a third party is liable for the payments under the insurance policies pursuant to an agreement governing the sale of HRO.  This litigation is currently moving into the discovery phase.
 
AICCO, Inc.
 
On November 18, 2008, AICCO, Inc. (“AICCO”) filed a complaint in the Court of Common Pleas of Bucks County, Pennsylvania against the Company alleging that AICCO agreed to finance premiums of certain insurance policies procured by the Company pursuant to a certain premium finance agreement among AICCO and the Company. AICCO claims that the Company breached the terms of such agreement by failing to make certain installment payments and seeks damages in excess of approximately $600,000, together with interest and attorney’s fees and costs.  On December 23, 2008, the Company filed an answer in this matter and joined two additional defendants on January 23, 2009.  The joined defendants filed their answer to the Company’s complaint on March 27, 2009.  The additional defendants’ answer included a counter-claim for indemnification from the Company.  The Company replied to the additional defendants’ counterclaim on April 27, 2009 denying any liability.  The Company contends that the joined defendants are liable for the installment payments pursuant to an agreement governing the sale of HRO.  The Company alleged breach of contract against the joined defendants and seeks contribution and indemnification from such parties in this matter.  This litigation is currently in the discovery phase.
 
The Company has accrued for some, but not all, of these matters where payment is deemed probable and an estimate or range of outcomes can be made. An adverse decision in a matter for which the Company has no reserve may result in a material adverse effect on its liquidity, capital resources and results of operations. In addition, to the extent that the Company’s management has been required to participate in or otherwise devote substantial amounts of time to the defense of these matters, such activities would result in the diversion of management resources from business operations and the implementation of the Company’s business strategy, which may negatively impact the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
 
The principal risks that the Company insures against are general liability, automobile liability, property damage, alternative staffing errors and omissions, fiduciary liability and fidelity losses. If a potential loss arising from these lawsuits, claims and actions is probable, reasonably estimable, and is not an insured risk, the Company records the estimated liability based on circumstances and assumptions existing at the time. Whereas management believes the recorded liabilities are adequate, there are inherent limitations in the estimation process whereby future actual losses may exceed projected losses, which could materially adversely affect the financial condition of the Company.
 
 
44

 
 
Generally, the Company is engaged in various other litigation matters from time to time in the normal course of business. Management does not believe that the ultimate outcome of such matters, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to the results of operations and financial condition of ClearPoint Business Resources, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries (“ClearPoint” or the “Company”).  The information contained in Item 2 has been derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and ClearPoint’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  ClearPoint’s forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding ClearPoint’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future.  In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements.  The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
 
The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not guarantees of future performance and are based on ClearPoint’s current assumptions, estimates, forecasts, expectations and beliefs concerning ClearPoint’s business and their potential effects on ClearPoint and speak only as of the date of such statement.  ClearPoint has no plans to update its forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof.  There can be no assurance that future developments affecting ClearPoint will be those that it has anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond ClearPoint’s control) that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following factors:
 
 
·
ClearPoint’s ability to continue as a going concern and obtain adequate financing;
 
 
·
ClearPoint’s ability to service and repay outstanding debt obligations;
 
 
·
limitations that ClearPoint’s outstanding debt obligations impose on cash flow available for operations;
 
 
·
ClearPoint’s ability to facilitate the market acceptance of the iLabor Network and increase revenues; and

Overview
 
ClearPoint is a workplace management solutions company. ClearPoint focuses its services on helping companies manage their contingent labor needs. Through the iLabor Network, ClearPoint provides services to clients ranging from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies. The iLabor Network specializes in the highly transactional “go to work” or “on-demand” segment of the temporary labor market. ClearPoint considers the hospitality, distribution, warehouse, manufacturing, logistics, transportation, convention services, hotel chains, retail and administrative sectors among the segments best able to be served by the iLabor Network.
 
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, ClearPoint began to transition its business model from a temporary staffing provider through a network of branch-based offices or franchises to a provider that manages clients’ temporary staffing needs through its open Internet portal-based iLabor Network. Under its new business model, ClearPoint acts as a broker for its clients and network of temporary staffing suppliers.
 
ClearPoint derives its revenues from the following sources: (i) royalty payments related to client contracts which ClearPoint subcontracted or sold to other providers of temporary staffing services; (ii) revenues generated by the iLabor Network; and (iii) revenues related to VMS.
 
Historically, ClearPoint has funded its cash and liquidity needs through cash generated from operations and debt financing.  ClearPoint incurred net losses of approximately $638 and $31,697 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. ClearPoint is highly leveraged and has very limited financial resources.  At March 31, 2009, ClearPoint had cash and cash equivalents of $319, $26,319 of total liabilities and accumulated deficit of approximately $55,129.
 
In 2008, ClearPoint defaulted on its debt obligations to M&T and had to restructure its outstanding debt obligations. Effective June 20, 2008, ClearPoint replaced M&T with ComVest as its senior lender and entered into subordination agreements with its other lenders.  As a result of its liquidity problems as well as the absence of firm commitments for any additional financing, ClearPoint’s independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph in its report on ClearPoint’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 regarding ClearPoint’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2009, CPR did not make certain required payments under the Blue Lake Note and Loan Agreement with ComVest.  See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Debt Restructuring – M&T and ComVest” and “—Notes Issued to Blue Lake and Sub Noteholders” for additional information regarding such defaults and waivers from ComVest relating to the defaults.
 
ClearPoint included a “going concern” note in its condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2009 (see Note 1 of the Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q).  As of March 31, 2009, cash projected to be generated from operations will not be sufficient to fund operations and meet debt repayment obligations during the next twelve months.  In order to meet its cash and liquidity needs, ClearPoint will be required to raise additional financing or restructure existing debt, and there is no assurance that ClearPoint will be successful in obtaining additional financing or restructuring existing debt obligations. If ClearPoint cannot generate sufficient cash from operations, raise additional financing or restructure existing debt, there is substantial doubt about the ability of ClearPoint to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months.

Demand for ClearPoint’s staffing services has been adversely affected by the general level of economic activity and rising unemployment in the United States.  During the current economic downturn, some of ClearPoint’s clients have been reducing their temporary labor spending as part of a general cost reduction strategy.  In addition, some of ClearPoint’s clients have limited their utilization of temporary employees before laying off regular full-time employees.  Generally, ClearPoint has experienced less demand for its services and more competitive pricing pressure during this period of economic downturn, which has adversely affected its business, financial condition and results of operations.  ClearPoint is dependent on its approved staffing supplier base to fill open positions posted by its clients.  If due to the economic downturn, some of ClearPoint’s suppliers curtail their operations or are otherwise unable to fill sufficient open positions posted by its clients, ClearPoint may be unable to compete effectively and which could materially adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
In addition, ClearPoint continues to face significant business challenges related to:
 
 
·
its ability to service and repay its outstanding debt obligations;
 
 
·
limitations imposed by the outstanding debt obligations on the cash flow available for its operations; and
 
 
·
its ability to facilitate the market acceptance of the iLabor Network.
 
In the face of these challenges, ClearPoint expects to focus on:
 
 
·
evaluating additional sources of financing or restructuring its existing debt obligations in the event that iLabor penetration and adoption does not meet ClearPoint’s operating cash requirements;
 
 
·
maintaining and enhancing the functionality of its iLabor Network for current and prospective clients;
 
 
·
continuing to expand its supplier base to provide more extensive market coverage; and
 
 
·
increasing sales and marketing efforts through direct and indirect channels.
 
Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
ClearPoint’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based on ClearPoint’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these principles in the United States of America requires ClearPoint to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and also affect the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each period. Actual results could differ from those which result from using the estimates.
 
The SEC defines “critical accounting policies” as those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.
 
ClearPoint’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Notes to ClearPoint’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2008, as set forth in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2009 and additional policies are described in Note 3 to the Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
 
Seasonality

ClearPoint experiences fluctuation in revenue and operating results based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, competition in its markets, availability of qualified personnel and the personnel demands of its clients. Historically, ClearPoint has experienced a rise in demand from its transportation and retail clients in the third and fourth quarter due to the increase in the shipment of products for the holiday season. The first quarter has been traditionally the slowest quarter from a revenue perspective due to national holidays and client planning cycles. Inclement weather can cause a slowdown in ClearPoint’s business due to business shutdowns by its clients. This revenue seasonality will also typically impact ClearPoint’s profitability as most operating expenses are spread evenly throughout the year.

Net Revenues
 
ClearPoint’s revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were $1,237 and $24,220, respectively, which represented a decrease of $22,983 or 94.9%. This decrease was due primarily to the changes in ClearPoint’s business model, as described in the Overview above, which resulted in all revenues being recognized on a net fee basis such as franchise, royalty and license fees.  ClearPoint recorded $1,142 of royalties in net revenue during the three months ended March 31, 3009 and $1,302 in franchise fees for the three months ended March 31, 2008.
 
Cost of Services and Gross Profit
 
Cost of services consists of direct labor expenses for time charged directly to a client and related payroll taxes, unemployment and workers’ compensation insurance expenses, employee benefits, and other out-of-pocket expenses directly associated with the performance of the service to the client. ClearPoint’s cost of services for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was $0 and $22,744, respectively, which represented a decrease of $22,744.  Under the new business model, there are no cost of services rendered.  ClearPoint’s gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2009, and 2008 was $1,237 and $1,476, respectively, which represented a decrease of $239 or 16.1%. This decrease was due primarily to the changes in ClearPoint’s business model, as described in the Overview above, which resulted in more revenues being recognized on a net fee basis such as royalty and license fees with no cost of services. As a percentage of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, ClearPoint’s gross profit was 100% and 6.1% respectively.

Selling, General, Administrative and Restructuring Expenses
 
ClearPoint’s selling, general, administrative (“SG&A”) and restructuring expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were $1,190 and $5,558, respectively, which represented a decrease of $4,368 or 78.6%. The decrease was a direct result of ClearPoint’s 2008 restructuring and franchising of many of its branches, as ClearPoint had substantially less SG&A expenses associated with ClearPoint’s branch based operations during the three months ended March 31, 2009, which include expenses related to salaries, employee benefits and rents.  The Company also recognized $200 in recovery of bad debt for the three months ended March 31, 2009.  During the three months ended March 31, 2008, ClearPoint recorded  a provision for amounts due from the former franchisees that are no longer in operation and allowances for doubtful accounts totaling $1,639. As a percentage of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, SG&A expenses were 96.2% and 23% respectively, largely as a result of reduced revenue due to the recording of franchise royalties on a net basis.
 
Effective March 12, 2008, ClearPoint initiated an additional restructuring program of its field and administrative operations in order to further reduce its ongoing SG&A expenses. As part of the restructuring program, ClearPoint closed its remaining branch and administrative office in Florida and eliminated approximately 20 positions.  Restructuring expenses related to these closures and position eliminations during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, were $0 and $2,100, respectively, which represented a decrease of $2,100.  The decrease was related to the fact that ClearPoint did not initiate an additional reserve in 2009 to further reduce its ongoing SG&A expenses.
 
Impairment of Goodwill and Depreciation and Amortization Expense
 
ClearPoint’s depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were $222 and $1,144, respectively, which represented a decrease of $922 or 80.6%. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, ClearPoint recorded an impairment charge of $1,022 related to fixed assets as a result of the termination of franchise agreements described in Note 15 and Note 4 of the Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company removed $1,838 of fixed assets and $816 of accumulated depreciation as a result of this impairment. The Company also recorded an impairment of goodwill for the three months ended March 31, 2008 of $16,822 based upon management’s determination that the carrying amount of the goodwill was less than its fair value.
 
Interest Expense
 
ClearPoint’s interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was $435 and $548, respectively, which represented a decrease of $113, or 20.6%, primarily due to the reduced interest cost from the reduction in the company’s overall debt.
 
Other Income or Expense
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, total Other Expense was $23 and $1,995, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the expense was primarily due to the loss on derivative instruments of $53 partially offset by other income of $30. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the expense was primarily attributable to the recording of a loss on the sale of HRO for $1,894 and other expense of $139 primarily related to an early termination fee, which was partially offset by other income of $38.
 
Net Loss
 
ClearPoint’s net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was $638 and $31,968, respectively, which represented a decrease in the loss of $31,330 or 98.0%. The net loss was due primarily to the reduced gross profit offset by reduced ongoing SG&A, which included a $200 reduction in the allowance for doubtful accounts, and interest expenses as a result of the factors discussed above. The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was also a result of a number of non-cash items relating to the 2008 restructuring program of $2,100, the impairment charge of goodwill of $16,822, the impairment charge of fixed assets of $1,022, and the recording of a deferred tax assets valuation allowance of $5,007 in the provision for income taxes for deferred tax benefits recognized primarily in prior periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
General
 
Historically, ClearPoint has funded its cash and liquidity needs through cash generated by operating activities and through various forms of debt and equity financing. As of March 31, 2009, cash projected to be generated from operations may not be sufficient to fund operations and meet debt repayment obligations.  Based on ClearPoint’s cash position and working capital deficiency, it may need to raise additional financing or restructure existing debt in order to support its business operations. The amount of financing required will be determined by many factors, some of which are beyond ClearPoint’s control, and may require financing sooner than currently anticipated. ClearPoint has no commitment for any additional financing or debt restructuring and can provide no assurance that such additional financing or debt restructuring will be negotiated on terms acceptable to ClearPoint, if at all. If ClearPoint is unable to generate sufficient cash from operations, obtain additional financing or restructure existing debt or if such funds cannot be negotiated on terms favorable to ClearPoint, there is substantial doubt about the ability of ClearPoint to continue as a going concern (see also Note 1 of the Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q).
 
ClearPoint’s traditional use of cash flow was for funding payroll in advance of collecting revenue, particularly during periods of economic upswings and growth and during periods in which sales are seasonally high throughout the year. Temporary personnel were generally paid on a weekly basis while payments from clients were generally received 30 to 60 days after billing. ClearPoint’s new iLabor-focused business model has essentially eliminated these funding requirements since ClearPoint’s main focus is no longer to act as the employer for the temporary personnel, but rather to be the facilitator, bringing together clients and suppliers of temporary labor, via ClearPoint’s iLabor Network. Revenue from ClearPoint’s iLabor Network where it electronically procures and consolidates buying of temporary staffing for clients nationally is recognized on a net basis. ClearPoint contracts directly with clients seeking to procure temporary staffing services through its iLabor portal. ClearPoint also contracts directly with, and purchases from, temporary staffing suppliers, the temporary placement of workers which is then subsequently resold to its clients. There is no specific fee or other payment charged to ClearPoint’s clients or suppliers in connection with their respective use of the iLabor Network.
 
ClearPoint’s primary cash requirements include the payment of interest and principal on its debt obligations, payments to suppliers providing temporary staffing services to ClearPoint’s clients and general working capital of the business.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2009 and 2008
 
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was ($758) and $5,747 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  The primary effect in the three months ended March 31, 2009 of cash used in operating activities was due to: a book loss of $638; non-cash items of: depreciation and amortization expense of $223; partially offset by a reduction in the provision for doubtful accounts of $200; interest expense related to the original issue discount and warrant liability of $148; issuance of warrants relating to a consulting agreement of $11; a loss on derivatives of $53; stock based compensation of $23; and loss on disposal of fixed assets of $5; and cash items of: a decrease in accounts receivable of $320 related to collections and a decrease in new revenues related to the adoption of new iLabor business; a decrease in unbilled revenue of $66; a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $270; a decrease in accounts payable of $230; a decrease in accrued expenses of $296; a decrease in accrued payroll taxes of $171; a decrease in deferred revenue of $249; a decrease in accrued restructuring costs of $30; and a decrease in retirement benefits of $62.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2008, net cash provided by operating activities was due to the following major components: a book loss of ($31,698); an increase in deferred income tax of $5,007; depreciation and amortization expense of $1,143, largely due to the write-off of fixed assets of $1,022 associated the discontinuance of branch operations; the impairment of goodwill of $16,822; a provision for doubtful accounts of $222; a provision for franchise receivables of $1,638; loss on the sale of ClearPoint HRO, LLC of $1,894; issuance of warrants to sub-debt holders of $50; and stock based compensation of $15; and cash items of: a decrease in accounts receivable of $11,142 due to the franchising of ClearPoint’s branches  and related decrease associated with the adoption of ClearPoint’s new technology based iLabor business model; a decrease in unbilled revenue of $1,876; an increase in prepaid expenses of $555; increase in other assets of $9; a decrease in accrued expenses of $1,604; a decrease in accrued payroll taxes of $1,792; an increase of accrued restructuring costs of $1,498.
 
Net cash (used in) investing activities was ($45) and ($643) for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  The primary use of cash for investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was for the purchase of fixtures and software.  The primary use of cash for investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was for capitalized software development of $643.
 
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $162 and ($7,098) for the three month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  The following primary financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009 resulted in the net cash provided of $162: repayments of ComVest debt of $536; borrowings against ClearPoint’s credit facility of $1,150; repayments of long term M&T debt of $193; repayments of Blue Lake debt of $100; repayments on notes payable of $159.
 
The primary financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2008 were: repayments of long-term debt to M&T of $250; repayments on the M&T credit facility of $6,848; proceeds from the stockholders note of $800; and assumption of the stockholders note of $800.
 
Debt Restructuring – M&T and ComVest
 
M&T

On February 23, 2007, pursuant to a Credit Agreement (the “M&T Credit Agreement”), ClearPoint entered into credit facilities with M&T consisting of a $20,000 revolving credit facility (“M&T Revolver”) expiring in February 2010 and a $3,000 term loan (“M&T Term Loan”) expiring in February 2012. In July 2007, ClearPoint amended the M&T Credit Agreement to increase the M&T Term Loan to $5,000 in the First Amendment to the M&T Credit Agreement. On March 21, 2008, ClearPoint entered into the Second Amendment to M&T Credit Agreement, dated as of March 21, 2008, among ClearPoint and M&T. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the M&T Credit Agreement was amended, among other matters, as follows: (i) the aggregate amount of the revolving credit commitments was gradually reduced from $20,000 to $15,000 at March 21, 2008 and $4,000 at June 30, 2008; (ii) the applicable margin, which is a component of the interest rate calculations, was increased to (a) 3.5% and 1.25% for any revolving credit loan that is a “Eurodollar Loan” and a “Base Rate Loan”, respectively (as defined in the M&T Credit Agreement), and (b) 4.5% and 2.25% for any M&T Term Loan that is a Eurodollar Loan and a Base Rate Loan, respectively; (iii) the applicable commitment fee percentage, which is included in the calculations of commitment fees payable by ClearPoint on the amount of the unused revolving credit commitments, was increased to 0.25%; and (iv) the covenants related to the ratios of total debt or senior debt, as applicable, to modified EBITDA were amended to lower the ratios as of September 30, 2008.
 
52

 
On April 14, 2008, ClearPoint entered into a Waiver (the “M&T Waiver”) to the M&T Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the M&T Waiver, the required lenders under the M&T Credit Agreement waived compliance with certain financial covenants set forth in the M&T Credit Agreement for the period ended December 31, 2007. In connection with the M&T Waiver, ClearPoint paid a $100 fee to M&T. ClearPoint was not in compliance with the financial and reporting covenants at March 31, 2008. ClearPoint did not receive a waiver for such non-compliance from M&T. On May 9, 2008, ClearPoint received a letter from M&T indicating, among other matters, that the principal amount of revolving credit loans outstanding under the M&T Credit Agreement shall be limited to a maximum amount of $7,300 for the period ended May 16, 2008.
 
On May 21, 2008, ClearPoint received a notice of default from M&T in connection with the M&T Credit Agreement. ClearPoint defaulted on its obligations under the M&T Credit Agreement as a result of its failure to comply with financial covenants contained in the M&T Credit Agreement, including obligations to maintain certain leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios. As a consequence of the default, M&T exercised its right to declare all outstanding obligations under the credit facilities to be immediately due and payable and demanded the immediate payment of approximately $12,800, consisting of approximately (i) $7,400 under the M&T Revolver; (ii) $3,900 under the M&T Term Loan; and (iii) $1,500 under a letter of credit. Also pursuant to the notice of default, M&T exercised its right to terminate the M&T Revolver and the M&T Term Loan and to terminate its obligation to make any additional loans or issue additional letters of credit to ClearPoint.
 
ClearPoint and M&T entered into a Loan Modification and Restructure Agreement dated June 20, 2008 (the “M&T Restructure Agreement”) pursuant to which the parties agreed to: (i) consolidate the certain obligations owing to M&T (the “M&T Obligations”), (ii) reduce the carrying amount of the consolidated obligations from $10,900, which consisted of the M&T Revolver and Term Loan of approximately $7,000 and $3,900, respectively (net of additional cash payments made during negotiations), to $8,600, (iii) subordinate the M&T Obligations to ClearPoint’s obligations to ComVest (the “ComVest Obligations”) and (iv) permit ClearPoint to repay the M&T Obligations on a deferred term basis. The M&T Restructure Agreement provides that on the earlier of the first day of the calendar month following ClearPoint’s full satisfaction of the ComVest Obligations or January 1, 2011 (the “Obligations Amortization Date”), ClearPoint shall repay a total of $3,000 in principal amount (the “M&T Deferred Obligations”) to M&T in 36 equal monthly payments plus interest on the outstanding balance of such amount at a rate of 5% per annum, subject to increase to 12% per annum upon occurrence of certain agreement termination events and Spring Back Events, as defined below. In the event of a sale of substantially all of ClearPoint’s or any subsidiary’s assets, a capital infusion or an infusion of subordinated indebtedness, ClearPoint must prepay the M&T Deferred Obligations by an amount equal to 25% of such proceeds as are payable to ComVest under such circumstances.
 
The $8,600 being paid to M&T is comprised of the following components: $3,000 note payable; guarantee of $3,000 of accounts receivable; pledging a minimum of a $1,000 tax refund; $1,000 cash payment made at the time of closing of the ComVest transactions described below; and $600 of the $1,500 certificate of deposit held by M&T.

ClearPoint issued to M&T warrants to purchase its common stock of which warrants to purchase 1,200,000 shares of common stock have an exercise price of $0.01 per share and warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock have an exercise price of $1.00 per share (collectively, the “M&T Warrants”).  In accordance with SFAS No. 150, the fair value of the warrants has been classified as a liability since M&T has the right to put the M&T Warrants back to ClearPoint in exchange for a cash settlement of $1.00 per share. At March 31, 2009, the balance sheet included a warrant liability of $1,266 related to the fair value of M&T Warrants (see Note 11 of the Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). The gain on restructuring of debt of $687 recorded in the year ended December 31, 2008 reflected the reduction in principal carrying balance offset by the fair value of the M&T Warrants and other direct costs. ClearPoint entered into a registration rights agreement dated June 20, 2008 to register the shares of common stock underlying the M&T Warrants.

In addition, prior to the Obligations Amortization Date, ClearPoint must pay M&T: (i) cash proceeds arising out of certain of its and its subsidiaries’ accounts receivable in an amount not less than $3,000 and (ii) existing and future federal and state income tax refunds of not less than $1,000 due or which become due to ClearPoint for any period prior to January 1, 2008.  In the event such payments by ClearPoint are less than the stated minimum amounts, such shortfall will be added to the M&T Deferred Obligations.  Excesses of either amounts paid by ClearPoint will be remitted to ClearPoint and/or applied to the M&T Deferred Obligations in accordance with the M&T Restructure Agreement.  ClearPoint remitted all applicable federal and state income tax refunds to M&T required under the M&T Restructure Agreement.  At March 31, 2009, income tax refunds of $1,024 resulting from net operating loss carry-backs and $88 refunds of overpayments were received by ClearPoint and remitted to M&T.  At March 31, 2009, ClearPoint remitted to M&T a total of approximately $2,417, which was comprised of approximately $1,305 applied to the $3,000 accounts receivable target and $1,112 applied to the $1,000 federal and state income tax refund target.  The excess of $112 over the $1,000 tax refund target will be credited to the M&T Deferred Obligations.  At March 31, 2009, the outstanding balance related to the $3,000 accounts receivable target was $1,583.
 
M&T issued (i) a certain certificate of deposit to ClearPoint in the amount of $1,500 (the “COD”) and (ii) a certain standby letter of credit for the account of ClearPoint in favor of Ace Risk Management (the “Ace Letter of Credit”). On June 27, 2008, M&T liquidated the COD and applied $600 to ClearPoint’s outstanding obligations. To the extent M&T is required to make payments under the Ace Letter of Credit in excess of $900 at any time, such excess shall be added to the M&T Deferred Obligations. Excesses of such amount paid will be remitted to ClearPoint and/or applied to the M&T Deferred Obligations in accordance with the M&T Restructure Agreement.
 
Pursuant to the M&T Restructure Agreement, ClearPoint must comply with various covenants while the M&T Deferred Obligations are outstanding and provided that (i) no bankruptcy or insolvency event has taken place and (ii) ClearPoint and/or its subsidiaries have not terminated operation of their business without the prior written consent of M&T (each being a “Spring Back Event”). Such covenants include, but are not limited to: delivery to M&T of financial and other information delivered to ComVest; restrictions on the aggregate compensation which may be paid to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of ClearPoint; limitations on dividends and distributions of cash or property to equity security holders of ClearPoint and/or redemptions or purchases of capital stock or equity securities of other entities; and restrictions on collateralizing subordinated indebtedness. At March 31, 2009, ClearPoint was in compliance with all applicable covenants set forth in the M&T Restructure Agreement.
 
The M&T Restructure Agreement provides that ClearPoint may continue to pay regularly scheduled payments (but not prepayments or accelerated payments) on (i) existing subordinated indebtedness, except to the extent prohibited by the ComVest transaction documents and (ii) the amended and restated note issued to Blue Lake dated April 14, 2008. For each $50 paid on account of the note issued to Blue Lake, Michael Traina, ClearPoint’s Chairman of the board of directors and Chief Executive Officer, and Christopher Ferguson, a principal stockholder of ClearPoint, shall, on a several basis, be liable as sureties for the M&T Deferred Obligations, each in the amount of $10, subject to an aggregate amount of each surety’s liability of $150.
 
54

 
The M&T Restructure Agreement lists various agreement termination events including, but not limited to: default in payment of principal or interest or any other obligations when due and payable under the M&T Restructure Agreement; default in the observance of any covenant which is not cured within 30 days; and occurrence of an event of default under the ComVest Loan Agreement, as defined below, which is not cured pursuant to the applicable grace or notice period. Upon the occurrence of an agreement termination event, and at all times during the continuance thereof, the M&T Deferred Obligations are accelerated and become immediately due and payable. In addition, upon the occurrence of any Spring Back Event, the amount equal to (a) all outstanding principal balance of the M&T Obligations, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and costs and expenses reimbursable pursuant to the M&T Credit Agreement less (b) any amount received by M&T pursuant to the M&T Restructure Agreement on account of the M&T Deferred Obligations or the M&T Obligations (the “Spring Back Amount”) is automatically accelerated and becomes immediately due and payable. Pursuant to one of the conditions to closing the transaction with M&T, as set forth in the M&T Restructure Agreement, ClearPoint paid $1,000 to M&T for application to the M&T Obligations.
 
The M&T Restructure Agreement does not terminate or extinguish any of the liens or security interests granted to M&T pursuant to the M&T Credit Agreement and related documents.
 
ComVest
 
On June 20, 2008, ClearPoint entered into a Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (the “ComVest Loan Agreement”) with ComVest. Pursuant to the ComVest Loan Agreement, ComVest extended to ClearPoint: (i) a secured revolving credit facility for up to $3,000 (the “ComVest Revolver”) and (ii) a term loan (the “ComVest Term Loan” and, together with the ComVest Revolver, the “ComVest Loans”) in the principal amount of $9,000, of which $1,000 is treated as an original issue discount, and ClearPoint received $8,000 in respect of the ComVest Term Loan. ClearPoint also issued to ComVest a warrant to purchase 2,210,825 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per warrant (the “ComVest Warrant”). The ComVest Warrant was valued at $634 and treated as a discount to the long term portion of the debt and will be amortized over the life of the long term debt. ClearPoint entered into a registration rights agreement dated June 20, 2008 to register the shares of common stock underlying the ComVest Warrant.
 
The maximum amount that may be outstanding under the ComVest Revolver is initially $3,000 (the “ComVest Revolver maximum”). Effective as of the first day of each calendar month beginning January 1, 2010, the ComVest Revolver maximum will be reduced by an amount equal to 5.5% of the ComVest Revolver maximum in effect for the previous month. To the extent the amounts outstanding under the ComVest Revolver exceed the ComVest Revolver maximum, ClearPoint must make a payment to ComVest sufficient to reduce the amount outstanding to an amount less than or equal to the ComVest Revolver maximum. ClearPoint may borrow under the ComVest Revolver from time to time, up to the then applicable ComVest Revolver maximum. The amounts due under the ComVest Revolver bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of: (i) the prime rate of interest announced by Citibank, N.A. plus 2.25% or (ii) 7.25%. At March 31, 2009, the interest rate on the $2,150 outstanding under the ComVest Revolver was 7.25% and the interest rate on $7,118 outstanding under the ComVest Term Loan was 10% per annum. The ComVest Loans provide that the stated interest rates are subject to increase by 500 basis points during the continuance of an event of default under the ComVest Loan Agreement.
 
Amounts due under the ComVest Loans are payable monthly, beginning July 1, 2008. The outstanding principal amount of the ComVest Term Loan is payable as follows: $150 on July 1, 2008 and subsequent monthly payments are to be in an amount equal to the greater of (i) $200 less the amount of interest accrued during the preceding month or (ii) the amount equal to (a) the lesser of $450 or certain royalties, fees and/or other such payments collected by ClearPoint during the preceding month less (b) the amount of interest accrued during the preceding month (but not greater than the principal balance of the ComVest Term Loan). The installments under (ii) above are payable monthly starting August 1, 2008, including December 1, 2010. The final installment due and payable on December 31, 2010 will be in an amount equal to the entire remaining principal balance, if any, of the ComVest Term Loan.
 
As of March 31, 2009, ClearPoint was in default on principal installment payments due for February and March, 2009 under the ComVest Term Loan in the amount of $420, in the aggregate.  ClearPoint was also in default on principal installment payments for April, 2009 of $255 under the ComVest Term Loan.  The failure to make such payments constitutes an event of default under the ComVest Loan Agreement.  ClearPoint is obligated to pay a default interest rate of 500 basis points over the prevailing rate on the foregoing amounts, which difference between the default rate and the prevailing rate was not paid as of the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  On May 19, 2009, ComVest executed a waiver letter (the “Term Loan Waiver”) related to the ComVest Loan Agreement.  Pursuant to the Term Loan Waiver, ComVest waived the foregoing defaults, provided that ComVest reserved the right to collect at a later time, but not later than the maturity date of the ComVest Term Loan under the ComVest Loan Agreement, the increased interest ComVest was permitted to charge during the continuance of such defaults.
 
55

 
On January 29, 2009, in order to assist ClearPoint in making the payments under the XRoads Agreement, as defined below, ComVest and ClearPoint entered into Amendment No. 1 to the ComVest Term Loan, pursuant to which the installments due and payable under the ComVest Term Loan on each of February 1, 2009, March 1, 2009, April 1, 2009 and May 1, 2009, respectively, shall be reduced by an amount equal to the positive difference (if any) of (i) the lesser of (a) $50 or (b) the amount paid or payable by ClearPoint to XRoads during the immediately preceding calendar month pursuant to the XRoads Agreement, minus (ii) the amount (if any) by which the aggregate Royalties collected during the immediately preceding calendar month exceeded $450. After the effective date of any termination of the XRoads Agreement, no reduction in any subsequent installments shall be permitted and, notwithstanding any extension beyond the initial four month term of the XRoads Agreement, ComVest shall not be obligated to reduce any further installments.  For additional information regarding the XRoads Agreement, as amended, see “—Agreement with XRoads Solutions.”  The Amendment No. 1 to the ComVest Term Loan also contains ComVest’s acknowledgement and consent to ClearPoint’s amendment of the payment terms and payment schedule of the note payable to the former shareholders of StaffBridge, Inc. as set forth in the Debt Extension Agreement dated December 31, 2008.  For additional information regarding such note, see “—StaffBridge.”
 
On May 7, 2009, ClearPoint entered into a non-binding term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) with ComVest outlining certain terms of restructuring the ComVest Revolver and ComVest Term Loan, subject to entering into final binding agreements between ComVest and ClearPoint.  The Term Sheet contemplates converting the existing credit facility into a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “New Revolver”) in the principal amount of $10,500.
 
On May 13, 2009, ComVest executed a waiver letter (the “Blue Lake Waiver”) to the ComVest Loan Agreement.  Pursuant to the Blue Lake Waiver, effective May 1, 2009, ComVest waived the cross-default provision which was triggered by CPR’s failure to make certain payments due under a note issued to Blue Lake and all remedies available to ComVest as a result of the failure to make such payments provided that such payments due under the Blue Lake Note are paid solely in Escrow Shares.  Blue Lake and ClearPoint are discussing whether the issuance of the Escrow Shares will constitute the full satisfaction of CPR’s obligations under the Blue Lake Note.  For additional information regarding the Blue Lake Note, see “—Notes Issued to Blue Lake and Sub Noteholders.”
 
As provided by the ComVest Loan Agreement and the ComVest Loans, ComVest may collect amounts due under the ComVest Loans from a “lockbox” account of ClearPoint and/or charge the ComVest Revolver for such amounts. Royalty payments received primarily from StaffChex and Select are segregated and solely used for the repayment of the ComVest Term Loan. To the extent that royalty receipts from these sources do not meet the minimum threshold of $200 per month, ClearPoint must make up the difference from its operating cash. In the event that royalty receipts from these sources exceed $450 in a given month, ClearPoint may utilize the excess for operations or offset amounts owed on the ComVest Revolver at its discretion.  For the three months ended March 31, 2009, ClearPoint remitted approximately $1,882 of principal and interest payments, in the aggregate, to ComVest, all of which was derived from its royalty receipts.  As of March 31, 2009 ClearPoint has remitted, since inception of the loan, $3,612 of principal and interest payments, in the aggregate, to ComVest, of which $3,489 was derived from its royalty receipts and $123 was derived from its other operations.
 
The ComVest Loans mature on December 31, 2010 subject to certain prepayment requirements related to the ComVest Term Loan. The ComVest Loan Agreement provides that, subject to certain exceptions, ClearPoint must prepay the ComVest Term Loan (i) in full upon certain transactions involving the sale or issuance of the majority of the outstanding stock of ClearPoint, change of control of ClearPoint or the sale of all or a material portion of ClearPoint’s assets or (ii) in part to the extent of 30% of proceeds received from sales of certain securities of ClearPoint. The outstanding borrowings under the ComVest Loan Agreement are secured by all the assets of ClearPoint.

Beginning with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2009, ClearPoint must maintain certain fixed charge coverage ratios and must make all necessary adjustments to its system of internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures no later than December 31, 2009. Until the ComVest Obligations have been paid in full and the ComVest Revolver has been terminated, ClearPoint must comply with various notice and other reporting covenants including, but not limited to, providing notice to ComVest upon the occurrence of certain events, periodically furnishing certain financial statements and other information to ComVest, maintaining its books and records and permitting inspection of such materials by ComVest upon reasonable request. The ComVest Loan Agreement also provides that until the ComVest Obligations have been satisfied in full, ClearPoint must provide written notice to ComVest of all meetings of the board of directors and actions proposed to be taken by written consent and must permit a representative of ComVest to attend or participate in any such meeting as a non-voting observer. At March 31, 2009, ClearPoint was in compliance with the applicable notice and reporting requirements required under the ComVest Loan Agreement.
 
The ComVest Loan Agreement also requires ClearPoint to obtain ComVest’s written consent, until the ComVest Obligations have been satisfied in full, in connection with certain transactions including, but not limited to, incurrence of additional indebtedness or liens on ClearPoint’s assets; sales of assets; making investments in securities or extension of credit to third parties; purchase of property or business combination transactions; declaration or payment of dividends or redemption of ClearPoint’s equity securities; payment of certain compensation to ClearPoint’s executive officers; changing ClearPoint’s business model or ceasing substantially all of its operations for a period exceeding 10 days; sale of accounts receivable; amendment of ClearPoint’s organizational documents; certain transactions with ClearPoint’s affiliates; and making certain capital expenditures.
 
The ComVest Loan Agreement lists various events of default including, but not limited to: default in the payment of principal or interest under the ComVest Obligations or in the observance or performance of any covenant set forth in the ComVest Loan Agreement; default of ClearPoint or any of its subsidiaries under any indebtedness exceeding $100; occurrence of certain bankruptcy or insolvency events; and common stock of ClearPoint ceasing to be listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on The OTC Bulletin Board for more than 30 consecutive days. Upon occurrence of an event of default, and at all times during the continuance of an event of default, (i) the ComVest Obligations become immediately due and payable, both as to principal, interest and other charges, without any requirement for demand or notice by ComVest, and bear interest at the default rates of interest as described above; (ii) ComVest may file suit against ClearPoint and its subsidiaries under the ComVest Loan Agreement and/or seek specific performance thereunder; (iii) ComVest may exercise its rights under a collateral agreement against the assets of ClearPoint and its subsidiaries; and (iv) the ComVest Revolver may be immediately terminated or reduced, at ComVest’s option.

In connection with the ComVest Loan Agreement described above, ComVest entered into a Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement (the “ComVest-M&T Agreement”) dated June 20, 2008 with M&T. The ComVest Loans issued to ClearPoint pursuant to the ComVest Loan Agreement have effectively replaced M&T with ComVest as a senior lender of ClearPoint. Pursuant to the ComVest-M&T Agreement, the parties confirmed their agreements and understandings with respect to the relative priorities of their respective claims and liens against ClearPoint. The ComVest-M&T Agreement provides that, subject to certain exceptions, M&T may not receive payment on certain of the M&T Obligations, as described in the ComVest-M&T Agreement, or seek enforcement against the collateral securing the M&T Obligations from ClearPoint or any other person, other than from Messrs. Traina and/or Christopher Ferguson pursuant to personal guarantees, until the ComVest Obligations have been satisfied in full. In addition, the ComVest-M&T Agreement provides for priorities with respect to the various components of collateral securing ClearPoint’s obligations to the parties and sets forth certain restrictions on the parties with respect to collection of such obligations.

ClearPoint paid to ComVest non-refundable closing fees in the amount of $530, charged to the ComVest Revolver, simultaneously with funding of the amounts payable to ClearPoint under the ComVest Loan Agreement. In addition, ClearPoint must pay to ComVest a monthly collateral monitoring, availability and administrative fee equal to 0.15% of the average daily principal amount outstanding under the ComVest Revolver during the preceding calendar month, up to $4.50 per month.
 
ClearPoint utilized the proceeds of the ComVest Loans to repay approximately $1,050 pursuant to the M&T Restructure Agreement owed to M&T and approximately $530 in closing costs and expenses.
 
ALS
 
On February 23, 2007, ClearPoint acquired certain assets and liabilities of ALS (see Note 4 of the Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). The purchase price of $24,400 consisted of cash of $19,000, the ALS Note of $2,500 at an interest rate of 7%, shares of common stock with a value of $2,500 (439,367 shares) and the assumption of approximately $400 of current liabilities. ALS’ stockholders may also receive up to two additional $1,000 payments in shares of common stock based on financial and integration performance metrics of ClearPoint in calendar years 2007 and 2008. No such payments have been made to date. The balance of this note payable at March 31, 2009 was not repaid due to the pending litigation with TSIL (see Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). In connection with the transaction with ComVest described above, on June 20, 2008, ClearPoint entered into the ALS Agreement with ALS and certain other parties whereby the parties agreed, among other things: (i) to execute the ALS Subordination Letter dated June 20, 2008 (defined below); (ii) to amend the ALS Note to provide for an outstanding principal amount of $2,156 (remaining principal balance of $2,023 plus accrued interest of $133), which balance was $2,156 at March 31, 2009, bearing interest at a rate of 5% per annum payable in 24 equal monthly installments, payable as permitted pursuant to the ALS Subordination Letter; (iii) that ClearPoint would issue 350,000 shares of common stock to ALS (the “ALS Shares”) in accordance with the acquisition of ALS; (iv) that ALS may defend and indemnify ClearPoint in connection with the TSIL Litigation and (v) that the parties will take all appropriate actions to dismiss their claims against each other in connection with the TSIL Litigation. On November 21, 2008, a joint stipulation for voluntary dismissal was filed with the court pursuant to which ClearPoint and ALS jointly dismissed such claims with prejudice. On December 8, 2008, the court entered an order dismissing all claims between ClearPoint and ALS with prejudice. ClearPoint valued the shares issued at their fair market value as of the date of issuance of $102 and recorded that amount as expense.  ClearPoint has no future obligation to issue any additional shares of common stock to ALS.
 
Pursuant to a Subordination Letter sent by ALS to ComVest, M&T and ClearPoint dated June 20, 2008 (the “ALS Subordination Letter”), ALS agreed that ClearPoint may not make and ALS may not receive payments on the ALS Note, provided however, that (i) upon payment in full of all obligations under the ComVest Term Loan so long as ClearPoint is otherwise permitted to make such payments, ClearPoint shall make monthly interest payments on the outstanding principal balance of the ALS Note and (ii) upon payment in full of the M&T Obligations, ClearPoint shall make 24 equal monthly installments on the ALS Note, as amended pursuant to the ALS Agreement described above.  The transaction did not classify as a restructuring of debt.  For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, ClearPoint accrued $27 and $10, respectively, in interest expense associated with the ALS Note.  As of March 31, 2009, ClearPoint had $86 of accrued interest payable recorded on its consolidated balance sheet associated with the ALS Note.

StaffBridge
 
On August 14, 2006, ClearPoint acquired 100% of the common stock of StaffBridge for $233 in cash and the StaffBridge Note payable of $450 due December 31, 2007. The StaffBridge Note, due to the StaffBridge Shareholders, bears interest at 6% per annum and is payable quarterly. On December 31, 2007, the StaffBridge Note was amended to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2008. In addition, the amount of StaffBridge Note was increased to $487 to include accrued interest and the interest rate was increased to 8% per annum payable in monthly installments starting January 15, 2008. ClearPoint incurred an origination fee equal to 4% of the principal amount payable in the form of 9,496 shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2008, ClearPoint did not pay any monthly interest installments pursuant to the amended StaffBridge Note. The failure to pay such interest installments would permit noteholders to declare all amounts owing under the StaffBridge Note due and payable. On August 13, 2008, the outstanding accrued interest of $24 was paid and ComVest waived any default related thereto effective June 30, 2008. The balance of the StaffBridge Note payable at March 31, 2009 was $177 and, as of March 31, 2009, ClearPoint paid all monthly interest installments pursuant to the amended StaffBridge Note, amounting to $38.
 
In addition, in connection with the financing transaction with ComVest, on June 30, 2008, the StaffBridge Shareholders executed a certain Debt Extension Agreement (the “Debt Extension Agreement”) and entered into a Subordination Agreement (the “StaffBridge Subordination Agreement”) with ComVest and CPR.
 
Pursuant to the Debt Extension Agreement, the StaffBridge Shareholders agreed that, in connection with the receipt from ClearPoint of $150 payable for work performed by TSP, the StaffBridge Note was amended, effective June 30, 2008, to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2008 and to reduce the outstanding principal amount to approximately $337.  
 
Pursuant to the StaffBridge Subordination Agreement, the StaffBridge Shareholders agreed to subordinate ClearPoint’s obligations to them under the StaffBridge Note to the ComVest Obligations. So long as no event of default under the ComVest Loan Agreement has occurred, ClearPoint may continue to make scheduled payments of principal and accrued interest when due in accordance with the StaffBridge Note. In the case of an event of default under the ComVest Loan Agreement, ClearPoint may not pay and the StaffBridge Shareholders may not seek payment on the StaffBridge Note until the ComVest Obligations have been satisfied in full. The StaffBridge Subordination Agreement also sets forth priorities among the parties with respect to distributions of ClearPoint’s assets made for the benefit of ClearPoint’s creditors.
 
Effective December 31, 2008, the StaffBridge Note was further amended pursuant to a second Debt Extension Agreement dated December 31, 2008 to provide for the following payment schedule of the outstanding amount due under the StaffBridge Note: $100 was paid on or about December 31, 2008 and the remaining balance shall be paid in four equal quarterly payments of $59, beginning on March 31, 2009 and ending on December 31, 2009.
 
Notes Issued to Blue Lake and Sub Noteholders
 
Blue Lake
 
On March 1, 2005, CPR issued a promissory note to Blue Lake in the amount of $1,290 which was due March 31, 2008 (the “Blue Lake Note”). Interest of 6% per annum was payable quarterly. This note has been guaranteed by Michael Traina and Christopher Ferguson and was primarily used to assist ClearPoint in funding its workers’ compensation insurance policy. The Blue Lake Note matured on March 31, 2008. Effective March 31, 2008, CPR amended and restated the Blue Lake Note and extended its maturity date under an agreement dated as of March 31, 2008, by and between CPR and Blue Lake (the “Blue Lake Agreement”). Pursuant to the Blue Lake Agreement, on April 14, 2008, CPR and Blue Lake entered into an Amended and Restated Promissory Note (the “Amended Blue Lake Note”), with a principal amount of $1,290, which was due and payable as follows: (i) $200 was paid on April 8, 2008, (ii) $50 is payable on the first business day of each calendar month for 12 consecutive months (totaling $600 in the aggregate), the first payment to occur on May 1, 2008 and the last to occur on April 1, 2009, and (iii) on April 30, 2009, CPR was obligated to pay to Blue Lake the balance of the principal amount, equal to $490, plus accrued interest. The interest rate was increased from 6% to 10% per annum. ClearPoint agreed to issue 900,000 shares (“Escrow Shares”) of common stock in the name of Blue Lake to be held in escrow, pursuant to an escrow agreement, as security for the payment of the principal amount and interest under the Amended Blue Lake Note.
 
 
59

 
 
CPR did not make the required payments of: (i) $50 in January, 2009 and (ii) $490, plus accrued interest of $33, in April, 2009 under the Blue Lake Note.  On May 1, 2009, ClearPoint received a notice from Blue Lake indicating CPR’s failure to pay such amounts and demanding that ClearPoint immediately pay a total of approximately $573.  Pursuant to the terms of the Blue Lake Note, CPR’s failure to make the foregoing payments when due constitutes an event of default if not cured within five business days of receipt of written notice from Blue Lake.  ClearPoint did not cure such default on or prior to May 8, 2009.  On May 7, 2009, Blue Lake requested disbursement of the Escrow Shares and, pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the escrow agent is obligated to deliver the Escrow Shares to Blue Lake 10 calendar days after receipt of the request for disbursement.
 
An event of default under the Blue Lake Note triggers a cross-default provision pursuant to the ComVest Loan Agreement.  In addition, a default under the ComVest Loan Agreement would trigger a cross-default provision pursuant to the M&T Restructure Agreement, unless the default under the ComVest Loan Agreement is waived in writing by ComVest.  On May 13, 2009, ComVest executed the Blue Lake Waiver to the Loan Agreement, pursuant to which, effective May 1, 2009, ComVest waived the cross-default provision which was triggered by CPR’s failure to make the payments due under the Blue Lake Note and all remedies available to ComVest as a result of the failure to make such payments, provided that such payments due under the Blue Lake Note are paid solely in Escrow Shares.  Blue Lake and ClearPoint are discussing whether the issuance of the Escrow Shares will constitute the full satisfaction of CPR’s obligations under the Blue Lake Note.
 
Sub Noteholders
 
On March 1, 2005, CPR issued a 12% Amended and Restated Note in the original principal amount of $300 due March 31, 2008 to Fergco Bros. LLC (“Fergco”), a New Jersey limited liability company of which Christopher Ferguson owns a twenty-five percent (25%) ownership interest. The balance of this note payable at March 31, 2009 was $300 (“$300 Note”).
 
On March 1, 2005, CPR issued 12% Amended and Restated Notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $310 due March 31, 2008 to several ClearPoint stockholders who do not individually own 5% or more of the outstanding securities of ClearPoint and who are not members of the immediate family of any ClearPoint director or executive officer, except of $100 owed to Alyson Drew, the spouse of Parker Drew, a director of ClearPoint. The balance of these notes payable at March 31, 2009 was $250 (“$250 Notes”).  The holders of the $300 Note and the $250 Notes are collectively referred to as the Sub Noteholders.
 
Effective March 31, 2008, CPR amended and restated the $300 Note and the $250 Notes (collectively “Sub Notes”), and extended their maturity dates to March 31, 2009 under the amended sub notes, dated March 31, 2008 and issued by CPR to each Sub Noteholder (collectively, the “Amended Sub Notes”). All sums outstanding from time to time under each Amended Sub Note bear the same interest of 12% per annum as under the Sub Note, payable quarterly, with all principal payable on the maturity date. CPR’s failure to make any payment of principal or interest under the Amended Sub Note when such payment is due constitutes an event of default, if such default remains uncured for 5 business days after written notice of such failure is given to CPR by the Sub Noteholder. Upon an event of default and at the election of the Sub Noteholder, the Sub Note, both as to principal and accrued but unpaid interest, will become immediately due and payable. As of March 31, 2009, ClearPoint made all required interest payments on the Amended Sub Notes.
 
In consideration of each Sub Noteholder agreeing to extend the maturity date of the Sub Note, ClearPoint issued warrants (“Initial Sub Note Warrants”) to the Sub Noteholders to purchase, in the aggregate, 82,500 shares of common stock (the “Sub Note Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of $1.55 per share. The Initial Sub Note Warrant is immediately exercisable during the period commencing on March 31, 2008 and ending on March 31, 2010. CPR had the right in its sole discretion, to extend the maturity date of the Amended Sub Notes to March 31, 2010, and in connection with such extension, the Sub Noteholders had the right to receive additional Sub Note Warrants (the “Additional Sub Note Warrants”) to purchase, in the aggregate, an additional 82,500 shares of common stock.
 
60

 
On June 20, 2008, CPR exercised its right to extend the maturity date of the Amended Sub Notes to March 31, 2010 and, in connection with such extension, the Sub Noteholders received Additional Sub Note Warrants to purchase 82,500 Sub Note Warrant Shares at an exercise price of $1.55 per share. The Additional Sub Note Warrant is immediately exercisable during the period commencing on June 20, 2008 and ending on March 31, 2011. The exercise price and the number of Sub Note Warrant Shares are subject to adjustment in certain events, including a stock split and reverse stock split.
 
In connection with the transaction with ComVest described above, ComVest entered into a Subordination Agreement dated June 20, 2008 (the “Noteholder Subordination Agreement”) with each of the Sub Noteholders and CPR. Pursuant to the Noteholder Subordination Agreement, the Sub Noteholders agreed to subordinate ClearPoint’s obligations to them under the Amended Sub Notes to the ComVest Obligations. So long as no event of default under the ComVest Loan Agreement has occurred, ClearPoint may continue to make scheduled payments of principal and accrued interest when due in accordance with the Sub Notes, as amended. In the case of an event of default under the ComVest Loan Agreement, ClearPoint may not pay and the Sub Noteholders may not seek payment on the Sub Notes, as amended, until the ComVest Obligations have been satisfied in full. The Noteholder Subordination Agreement also sets forth priorities among the parties with respect to distributions of ClearPoint’s assets made for the benefit of ClearPoint’s creditors.
 
On February 22, 2008, CPR issued promissory notes (the “Promissory Notes”), in the aggregate principal amount of $800, with $400 to each of Michael Traina and Christopher Ferguson in consideration for loans totaling $800 made to CPR. The terms of the Promissory Notes issued to Messrs. Traina and Ferguson are identical. The principal amount of each Promissory Note is $400, they bear interest at the rate of 6% per annum, which will be paid quarterly, and they are due on February 22, 2009.  The Promissory Notes are subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment of any and all amounts due to M&T pursuant to the M&T Credit Agreement.
 
On February 28, 2008, ClearPoint Workforce, LLC (“CPW”) advanced $800, on behalf of Optos, to the provider of Optos’ outsourced employee leasing program. The advanced funds were utilized for Optos’ payroll. In consideration of making the advance on its behalf, Optos assumed the Promissory Notes, and the underlying payment obligations, issued by CPR on February 22, 2008.
 
On June 6, 2008, ClearPoint issued notes (the “Bridge Notes”) to each of Michael Traina, Parker Drew and TerraNova Partners (collectively, the “Bridge Lenders”) in the principal amounts of $104, $50 and $100, respectively. During the course of negotiations with ComVest, Mr. Traina agreed to loan an additional $5 to ClearPoint. TerraNova Partners, ClearPoint’s principal stockholder, is 100% owned by Vahan Kololian, ClearPoint’s lead director and principal stockholder. Mr. Kololian also controls 100% of the voting interest and 55% of the non-voting equity interest in the general partner of TerraNova Partners.
 
The Bridge Notes contained identical terms. The Bridge Notes were unsecured and payable on demand. No interest accrued on the unpaid principal balance of the Bridge Notes until demand. After demand, the Bridge Notes would bear interest at an annual rate of 5%.

On June 26, 2008, ClearPoint issued amended and restated Bridge Loans (the “Amended Bridge Notes”) to each Bridge Lender. The Amended Bridge Notes contained identical terms and provided that (i) the principal amount of the Amended Bridge Notes will bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, payable quarterly and (ii) ClearPoint had the right to repay the Amended Bridge Notes in shares of common stock at a price equal to the closing price of the common stock on June 26, 2008. The Amended Bridge Notes did not contain the provision stating that the principal balance will bear interest only upon demand for payment by the Bridge Lender, as provided in the Bridge Note. Mr. Drew’s Amended Bridge Note was repaid in full and Mr. Traina was repaid $5 during the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The balance of Mr. Traina’s loan was repaid in July 2008. On August 12, 2008, ClearPoint’s board of directors approved the payment of the Amended Bridge Note issued to TerraNova in 204,082 shares of common stock.

On February 28, 2008, CPR and its subsidiary, CPW, entered into a Licensing Agreement (the “Optos Licensing Agreement”) with Optos, of which Christopher Ferguson is the sole member. Pursuant to the Optos Licensing Agreement, ClearPoint (i) granted to Optos a non-exclusive license to use the ClearPoint Property and the Program, both as defined in the Optos Licensing Agreement, which include certain intellectual property of CPR, and (ii) licensed and subcontracted to Optos the client list previously serviced by TZG, pursuant to the TZG Agreement, dated August 13, 2007 and all contracts and contract rights for the clients included on such list. In consideration of the licensing of the Program, which is part of the ClearPoint Property, CPR was entitled to receive a fee equal to 5.2% of total cash receipts of Optos related to temporary staffing services. With CPR’s consent, Optos granted, as additional security under certain of its credit agreements, conditional assignment of Optos’ interest in the Optos Licensing Agreement to its lender under such credit agreements. The foregoing agreement with TZG was terminated on February 28, 2008 in connection with the Optos Licensing Agreement. ClearPoint did not incur any early termination penalties in connection with such termination.
 
On April 8, 2008, the Optos Licensing Agreement was terminated. In consideration for terminating the Optos Licensing Agreement, CPR and Optos have agreed that there will be a net termination fee for any reasonable net costs or profit incurred, if any, when winding up the operations associated with termination. This fee is estimated to be $500 and has been recorded as an expense. The payment of the net termination fee will be in the form of cash and shares of common stock of ClearPoint.

CPR exclusively retains all right, title and interest in and to the iLabor Network. In addition, Select agreed to become a supplier of temporary personnel to third party clients through the iLabor Network and to fulfill agreed-upon orders for such personnel accepted by Select through the iLabor Network. CPR also agreed to permit Select to use the iLabor Network to find and select third-party, temporary personnel suppliers to fulfill orders for Select’s end-user client. In consideration of the license granted, Select agreed to pay a non-refundable fee equal to $1,200, of which $900 was paid on April 8, 2008 and $300 was due on July 1, 2008, but was not paid. The July payment was waived and incorporated into the Select Settlement Agreement described below. Under the License Agreement, if Select used the iLabor Network to find and select third-party, temporary personnel suppliers to fulfill orders for Select’s end-user clients, then the parties would split the net amount billed to the end-user clients less the amount paid to such vendors.

Effective March 30, 2008, CPR entered into the Select Subcontract with Select. The Select Subcontract expires April 7, 2013. Pursuant to the Select Subcontract, CPR subcontracts to Select the client contracts and contract rights previously serviced on behalf of CPR by other entities (the “Customers”). Pursuant to the Select Subcontract, the parties agree that Select will directly interface with the Customers, but at no time will CPR relinquish its ownership, right, title or interest in or to its contracts with the Customers (the “Contracts”). Subject to certain exceptions, upon expiration of the Select Subcontract, CPR will abandon such rights in the Contracts and Select may solicit the Customers serviced under the Select Subcontract. Select is responsible for invoicing the Customers and for collection of payment with regard to services provided to Customers by Select. During each one year period of the term of the Select Subcontract, Select was obligated to pay CPR 10% of such year’s annual gross sales, not exceeding $36,000 annually in gross sales, generated by the client contracts as well as certain other revenue generated by location (the “Subcontract Fee”).
 
On July 29, 2008, Select, together with Real Time, initiated the Select Litigation claiming that ClearPoint owed it $1,033 for services performed.  For additional information regarding the Select Litigation, see “Note 20 – Litigation” to ClearPoint’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
 
On August 22, 2008, CPR, Real Time and Select entered into the Select Settlement Agreement pursuant to which each party released the others from all prior, existing and future claims including, without limitation, the parties’ claims with respect to the Select Litigation, the Select License Agreement and the Select Subcontract.

Pursuant to the Initial Agreement, TNMC provided services to ClearPoint including: advice and assistance in analysis and consideration of various financial and strategic alternatives, as well as assisting with transition services. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, TNMC received a fixed advisory fee of $175 (prorated for a partial year) for such services. Additionally, ClearPoint recorded approximately $2 for reimbursement of expenses incurred by TNMC in connection with the Initial Agreement for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. Pursuant to the terms of the Initial Agreement, it was terminated effective February 11, 2008, however TNMC continued to provide substantially similar services under substantially similar terms to ClearPoint on a monthly basis. No payments were accrued or paid to TNMC for January, 2008.
 
On June 26, 2008, ClearPoint entered into a new Advisory Services Agreement (the “Advisory Services Agreement”) with TNMC in order to: (i) provide compensation to TNMC for its services since the expiration of the Initial Agreement and (ii) engage TNMC to provide future advisory services. Pursuant to the Advisory Services Agreement, TNMC is obligated to provide advice and assistance to ClearPoint in its analysis and consideration of various financial and strategic alternatives (the “Advisory Services”), however the Advisory Services will not include advice with respect to investments in securities or transactions involving the trading of securities or exchange contracts. The Advisory Services Agreement is effective as of June 26, 2008, continues for a one year term and is automatically renewed for successive one-year terms unless terminated by either party by written notice not less than 30 days prior the expiration of the then-current term.
 
ClearPoint agreed to compensate TNMC for services rendered since expiration of the Initial Agreement and for Advisory Services going forward in accordance with the rates set forth in the Advisory Services Agreement and to reimburse TNMC for reasonable travel, lodging and meal expenses relating to the provision of the Advisory Services. Monthly fees payable to TNMC pursuant to the Advisory Services Agreement are capped at $50 per month. Fees payable to TNMC may be paid 100% in shares of common stock, at ClearPoint’s option. At ClearPoint’s option, 75% of the fees payable to TNMC beginning in the month of June, 2008 may be paid in shares of common stock and, with the agreement of TNMC, the remaining 25% may also be paid in shares of common stock. Shares of common stock made as payments under the Advisory Services Agreement are priced at the month-end closing price for each month of services rendered. ClearPoint incurred approximately $293 in fees owing to TNMC for its services in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. ClearPoint’s board of directors approved payment of $266 for the Advisory Services in the form of an aggregate of 479,470 shares of common stock for the months of February through August, 2008 as follows: on August 12, 2008, the board of directors approved payment for the months of February, March, April, May and June, 2008 in 417,008 shares of common stock and, on November 7, 2008, the board of directors approved payment for the months of July and August, 2008 in 62,462 shares of common stock.

As of December 31, 2008, ClearPoint paid Mr. Braun approximately $75 as severance under the Braun Separation Agreement.
 
On June 20, 2008, John Phillips and ClearPoint entered into an Employment Agreement (the “Phillips Employment Agreement”). Pursuant to the Phillips Employment Agreement, Mr. Phillips’ current base salary is $175 per year, which may be increased in accordance with ClearPoint’s normal compensation review practices. On November 7, 2008, ClearPoint’s board of directors increased Mr. Phillips’ base salary to $195 effective November 10, 2008. Mr. Phillips is also entitled to participate in any benefit plan of ClearPoint currently available to executive officers to the extent he is eligible under the provisions thereof, and ClearPoint will pay health, dental and life insurance premiums for Mr. Phillips and members of his immediate family. Mr. Phillips is entitled to receive short- and long-term disability insurance, and is entitled to three weeks of paid time off per year.

Agreement with XRoads Solutions
 
On January 13, 2009, ClearPoint entered into an agreement with XRoads (the “XRoads Agreement”). Pursuant to the XRoads Agreement, among other matters, XRoads agreed to provide the services of Brian Delle Donne to serve as ClearPoint’s Interim Chief Operating Officer (the “XRoads Engagement”). In such capacity, Mr. Delle Donne will have direct responsibility over ClearPoint’s day to day operations and will report to Michael D. Traina, ClearPoint’s Chief Executive Officer. XRoads will submit bi-weekly oral or written progress reports to ClearPoint’s board of directors. The term of the XRoads Agreement commenced on January 13, 2009 and continued until May 13, 2009.  Effective May 14, 2009, the XRoads Agreement was amended pursuant to Amendment No. 1 dated May 18, 2009 (the “XRoads Amendment”).  Pursuant to the XRoads Amendment, the term of the XRoads Agreement was extended to run from May 14, 2009 through August 13, 2009 (the “XRoads Extension”).
 
 
66

 

ClearPoint paid XRoads $50 per month for each of the first four months of Mr. Delle Donne’s services.  In addition, XRoads is entitled to a monthly fee based upon achievement of certain increases in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), calculated pursuant to the XRoads Agreement.  Such fee is equal to 10% of increases in monthly EBITDA during the term of the XRoads Agreement over EBITDA for the month ended January 31, 2009, capped at $50 per month (the “EBITDA Fee”).  During the three months ended March 31, 2009, ClearPoint paid no EBITDA Fees to XRoads.  ClearPoint also agreed to pay reasonable expenses incurred by XRoads for services related to its services and remitted a retainer in the amount of $10 to XRoads for such purpose.  During the three months ended March 31, 2009, pursuant to the XRoads Agreement, ClearPoint paid XRoads a total of $150 and the $10 retainer for reimbursement of expenses.  Any amounts not paid when due pursuant to the XRoads Agreement will bear interest at an annual rate of 12% or the maximum rate allowed by law, whichever is less.
 
The terms and conditions of the original XRoads Agreement which were not affected by the XRoads Amendment will remain in full force and effect during the XRoads Extension.  ClearPoint agreed to pay XRoads $45 per 30 day period of the XRoads Extension and the EBITDA Fee will remain at 10%, calculated in accordance with the XRoads Amendment, and subject to the cap of $50 per month.  In addition, pursuant to the XRoads Amendment, in the event Mr. Delle Donne is hired by ClearPoint, ClearPoint agreed to pay XRoads an aggregate of $250 as liquidated damages.  This amount is payable in the form of (i) $100 of cash due on Mr. Delle Donne’s hire date, (ii) a warrant to purchase ClearPoint’s common stock with a value of $100 based on the closing price on the day Mr. Delle Donne begins employment and (iii) a $50 promissory note bearing interest at 8% payable in four quarterly installments at the end of each calendar quarter following the start of Mr. Delle Donne’s employment.
 
In addition, ClearPoint issued XRoads a warrant to purchase up to 100,000 shares of common stock at the exercise price of $0.12 per share, exercisable through December 31, 2010 in connection with the expiration of the XRoads Agreement on May 13, 2009.  In connection with the XRoads Extension, ClearPoint is obligated to issue an additional warrant to purchase 75,000 shares of common stock with an expiration date of April 30, 2011.
 
In the event ClearPoint elects to pursue a financing (either in the form of debt or equity) within one year of the date of the XRoads Agreement, XRoads shall serve as ClearPoint’s non-exclusive financial advisor for such financing in accordance with the terms of the XRoads Agreement. If such financing is consummated pursuant to the terms set forth in the XRoads Agreement, ClearPoint agreed to pay XRoads a transaction fee based on the type and value of the transaction. The transaction fee will be prorated accordingly in the event ClearPoint retains an additional financial advisor in connection with the transaction, but such fee shall not be less than $75 if XRoads’ efforts result in an bona fide financing alternative for ClearPoint.
 
In the event of a material breach of the XRoads Agreement by either party, including, but not limited to, ClearPoint’s failure to promptly pay amounts due for services rendered or for reimbursement of expenses, the non-breaching party may terminate the Engagement at any time thereafter upon 5 days advance notice.
 
Warrants and Unit Purchase Option Issued in 2005 Public Offering
 
As a result of the 2005 public offering, there were 11,040,000 common stock purchase warrants issued and outstanding at March 31, 2009, which included warrants that were part of the outstanding units. Each warrant entitled the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share commencing on February 12, 2007 (the completion of the merger with Terra Nova).  Such warrants expired on April 17, 2009 according to their terms. In connection with the 2005 public offering, an option was issued for $100 to the representative of the underwriters to purchase 240,000 units at an exercise price of $9.90 per unit with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and two common stock purchase warrants. In addition, the warrants underlying such units were exercisable at $6.65 per share.  The option expired on April 17, 2009 according to its terms.

Income Taxes
 
As of March 31, 2009, ClearPoint had a net current and non-current deferred tax asset of $0. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between income and expenses reported for financial reporting and tax reporting. ClearPoint is required to record a valuation allowance to reduce its net deferred tax assets to the amount that it believes is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, ClearPoint historically had considered all positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, prudent and feasible tax planning strategies and recent financial performance. ClearPoint determined that the negative evidence, including historic and current losses, as well as uncertainties related to the ability to utilize federal and state net loss carry-forwards, outweighed any objectively verifiable positive factors, and as such, concluded that a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets was necessary.
 
Contingencies and Litigation
 
ClearPoint is involved in various litigation matters.  For a description of such matters, see Note 20 to the Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  ClearPoint has accrued for some, but not all, of these matters where payment is deemed probable and an estimate or range of outcomes can be made. An adverse decision in a matter for which ClearPoint has no reserve may result in a material adverse effect on its liquidity, capital resources and results of operations. In addition, to the extent that ClearPoint’s management has been required to participate in or otherwise devote substantial amounts of time to the defense of these matters, such activities would result in the diversion of management resources from business operations and the implementation of ClearPoint’s business strategy, which may negatively impact ClearPoint’s financial position and results of operations.
 
The principal risks that ClearPoint insures against are general liability, automobile liability, property damage, alternative staffing errors and omissions, fiduciary liability and fidelity losses. If a potential loss arising from these lawsuits, claims and actions is probable, reasonably estimable, and is not an insured risk, ClearPoint records the estimated liability based on circumstances and assumptions existing at the time. Whereas management believes the recorded liabilities are adequate, there are inherent limitations in the estimation process whereby future actual losses may exceed projected losses, which could materially adversely affect the financial condition of ClearPoint.
 
Generally, ClearPoint is engaged in various other litigation matters from time to time in the normal course of business. Management does not believe that the ultimate outcome of such matters, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on the financial condition or results of operations of ClearPoint.
 
Listing on Nasdaq
 
On July 16, 2008, staff of the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department notified ClearPoint that it had determined to delist ClearPoint’s securities from The Nasdaq Capital Market. On July 23, 2008, ClearPoint requested an appeal of this determination. On September 9, 2008, the Staff notified ClearPoint that its appeal had been denied and that trading in ClearPoint’s securities would be suspended on September 11, 2008. ClearPoint’s securities were delisted from Nasdaq effective at the opening of the trading session on November 24, 2008. Effective September 11, 2008, ClearPoint’s common stock was quoted on The OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “CBPR.OB.” Effective September 15, 2008, ClearPoint’s units and warrants were quoted on The OTC Bulletin Board under the symbols “CBPRU.OB” and “CPBRW.OB,” respectively.  Following the expiration of ClearPoint’s warrants in April, 2009, ClearPoint’s units and warrants were no longer quoted on The OTC Bulletin Board.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
Recently Adopted Standards
 
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. SFAS No. 157 was effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and all interim periods within those fiscal years. In February 2008, the FASB released FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FSP FAS 157-2 – Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually), to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years.
 
68

 
In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active.” This FSP clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157 in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. FSP FAS 157-3 was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements had not been issued.  The implementation of SFAS No. 157 for financial assets and liabilities, effective January 1, 2008, and FSP FAS 157-2, effective January 1, 2009, did not have a material impact on ClearPoint’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure, on an item-by-item basis, specified financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are required to be reported in earnings at each reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, the provisions of which are required to be applied prospectively. The implementation of SFAS No. 159 for financial assets and liabilities, effective January 1, 2008, did not have an impact on ClearPoint’s consolidated financial position and results of operations, as management has not elected to measure at fair value any of ClearPoint’s eligible financial instruments or other items not previously required to be measured at fair value.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 141.”  This statement establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer recognizes and measures assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, as well as, goodwill acquired and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of a business combination. In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP SFAS 141(R)-1, “Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies,” which amends SFAS No. 141(R) to require that contingent assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at fair value on the acquisition date if the fair value can be reasonably estimated. If the fair value cannot be reasonably estimated, the contingent asset or liability would be measured in accordance with SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies,” and FASB Interpretation No. 14, “Reasonable Estimation of the Amount of a Loss.”  Both pronouncements were effective for ClearPoint as of January 1, 2009 and will be applied prospectively to business combinations entered into on or after that date.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51.” This statement requires that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary be reported as equity and that the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest should be separately identified in the consolidated financial statements. ClearPoint has applied the provisions of SFAS No. 160 prospectively, as of January 1, 2009, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which were applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The adoption did not have an impact on ClearPoint’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 161”). The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The adoption of SFAS No. 161, effective January 1, 2009, did not have a material impact on ClearPoint’s consolidated financial statements.
 
 
69

 
 
Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
 
In December 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 132(R)-1, “Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets,” which amends FAS 132(R) to provide guidance on disclosures about plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan. These new disclosures will provide users of the financial statements with an understanding of how investment allocation decisions are made, the major categories of plan assets, the input and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets, the effects of fair value measurements and the significant concentrations of risk in regard to the plan assets. This FSP is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. As the position only requires enhanced disclosures, management believes its adoption will not have an impact on ClearPoint’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-4, “Determining Whether a Market Is Not Active and a Transaction Is Not Distressed”, which supersedes FSP FAS 157-3 This FSP provides additional guidance in determining whether a market is active or inactive and whether a transaction is distressed. It is applicable to all assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value and requires enhanced disclosures. This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. Management believes that the adoption of FSP FAS 157-4 will not have a material impact on ClearPoint’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” which amends FAS No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Values of Financial Instruments,” to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim, as well as, annual financial statements. It also amends APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require those disclosures in all interim financial statements. This FSP is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. Management believes that the adoption of this position will not have a material impact on ClearPoint’s consolidated financial statements.
 
ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
 
Not applicable.
 
ITEM 4T.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act).  Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii)  accumulated and communicated to our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2009, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met.  Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected.  Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks.  Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
 
Sunz Insurance
 
On or about June 25, 2008, Sunz filed a complaint (the “Sunz Litigation”) in the Circuit Court of the 9th Judicial Circuit (Orange County, Florida), against ALS d/b/a ClearPoint HR and CP Advantage. Sunz claims to have provided workers compensation insurance to ALS and CP Advantage and that such policy was cancelled on February 22, 2008, for alleged nonpayment of funds due under the insurance contract. Sunz claims that ALS and CP Advantage owe in excess of $500 under the policy. Sunz, in addition to damages, seeks pre-judgment interest, court costs, attorneys’ fees and such other relief deemed proper by the court.  On February 9, 2009, the court ordered Sunz to conduct an audit of ALS and CP Advantage and set this matter for mandatory mediation.  On March 3, 2009, ALS and CP Advantage answered Sunz’s allegations and denied any liability.  On April 29, 2009, this dispute was settled in mediation, and ClearPoint agreed to make a cash payment of approximately $49 to Sunz and to issue an irrevocable letter of credit to cover future claims, if any.  The letter of credit will expire on February 22, 2013.
 
Leon R. Cobaugh
 
On or about October 20, 2008, Leon R. Cobaugh (“Cobaugh”) filed a complaint in the Circuit Court for Chesterfield County of the Commonwealth of Virginia against ClearPoint and Quantum Resources Corporation, ClearPoint’s wholly-owned subsidiary (“Quantum”). The complaint alleges that, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated December 30, 1986 (the “SPA”), Cobaugh retired from his positions as an officer, director and employee of AIDE Management Resources Corporation, the prior name of Quantum, and sold his stock in such entity to the remaining stockholders in exchange for lump sum payments and monthly payments from Quantum for the rest of Cobaugh’s life. ClearPoint acquired all of the outstanding stock of Quantum on July 29, 2005. Upon its acquisition of Quantum, ClearPoint assumed Quantum’s obligations under the SPA. Cobaugh alleged that ClearPoint had failed to make the required monthly payments due under the SPA beginning June 1, 2008 and sought to recover a minimum of $200 as may be adjusted based on the Consumer Price Index under the SPA.  This dispute was settled on January 22, 2009.  Pursuant to the settlement agreement among the parties, past due amounts to Cobaugh were paid and ClearPoint agreed to continue making future payments as required by the SPA.
 
XL Specialty Insurance Company
 
On November 10, 2008, XL filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (New York County), and, on December 9, 2008, XL filed an amended complaint alleging that, among other things, XL issued workers’ compensation insurance policies to CP Advantage, during 2007 and CP Advantage failed to make certain payments with regard to claims made against CP Advantage under the policies and maintain collateral required by the insurance policy documents. XL seeks to recover from ClearPoint, as a guarantor of CP Advantage’s obligations under the insurance policies, $746, in the aggregate, in connection with certain claims against and pursuant to the collateral obligations of, CP Advantage. XL, in addition to damages, seeks pre-judgment interest, attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses and such other relief deemed proper by the court.  ClearPoint filed its answer in this matter on February 17, 2009 and contends that a third party is liable for the payments under the insurance policies pursuant to an agreement governing the sale of HRO.  This litigation is currently moving into the discovery phase.
 
 
71

 
 
AICCO, Inc.
 
On November 18, 2008, AICCO filed a complaint the Court of Common Pleas of Bucks County, Pennsylvania against ClearPoint alleging that AICCO agreed to finance premiums of certain insurance policies procured by ClearPoint pursuant to a certain premium finance agreement among AICCO and ClearPoint. AICCO claims that ClearPoint breached the terms of such agreement by failing to make certain installment payments and seeks damages in excess of approximately $600, together with interest and attorney’s fees and costs.  On December 23, 2008, ClearPoint filed an answer in this matter and joined two additional defendants on January 23, 2009.  The joined defendants filed their answer to ClearPoint’s complaint on March 27, 2009.  The additional defendants’ answer included a counter-claim for indemnification from ClearPoint.  ClearPoint replied to the additional defendants’ counterclaim on April 27, 2009 denying any liability.  ClearPoint contends that the joined defendants are liable for the installment payments pursuant to an agreement governing the sale of HRO.  ClearPoint alleged breach of contract against the joined defendants and seeks contribution and indemnification from such parties in this matter.  This litigation is currently in the discovery phase.
 
ClearPoint has accrued for some, but not all, of these matters where payment is deemed probable and an estimate or range of outcomes can be made. An adverse decision in a matter for which ClearPoint has no reserve may result in a material adverse effect on its liquidity, capital resources and results of operations. In addition, to the extent that ClearPoint’s management has been required to participate in or otherwise devote substantial amounts of time to the defense of these matters, such activities would result in the diversion of management resources from business operations and the implementation of ClearPoint’s business strategy, which may negatively impact ClearPoint’s financial position and results of operations.
 
The principal risks that ClearPoint insures against are general liability, automobile liability, property damage, alternative staffing errors and omissions, fiduciary liability and fidelity losses. If a potential loss arising from these lawsuits, claims and actions is probable, reasonably estimable, and is not an insured risk, ClearPoint records the estimated liability based on circumstances and assumptions existing at the time. Whereas management believes the recorded liabilities are adequate, there are inherent limitations in the estimation process whereby future actual losses may exceed projected losses, which could materially adversely affect the financial condition of ClearPoint.
 
Generally, ClearPoint is engaged in various other litigation matters from time to time in the normal course of business. Management does not believe that the ultimate outcome of such matters, including the matters above, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on the financial condition or results of operations of ClearPoint.
 
ITEM 1A.
RISK FACTORS.
 
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed below and in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
The risks described below and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 are not the only risks we face.  Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including the risks faced by us described below and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.
 
 
72

 
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes a going concern note to our condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2009 which may require us to scale back or cease operations.
 
At March 31, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $319, an accumulated deficit of approximately $55,129 and working capital deficiency of approximately $11,859.  For the three months ended March 31, 2009, we incurred a net loss of approximately $638.  Due to such financial position and results of operations as well as the absence of firm commitments for any additional financing, we included “Note 1 – Going Concern” to our condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, which states that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
If we are unable to generate sufficient cash from operations, obtain additional funding or restructure existing debt, we may not be able to continue operations as proposed, requiring us to modify our business plan, curtail various aspects of our operations or cease operations. In such event, you may lose a portion or all of your investment. In addition, the going concern note may cause concern to one or more of our constituencies of debt holders, clients, suppliers, or trade creditors. If any debt holder’s, client’s or trade creditor’s concern results in adverse changes in their respective business relations with us, these changes may materially adversely affect our cash flows and results of operations.
 
We have defaulted on certain of our debt obligations.  If we continue to experience liquidity issues, we may be unable to repay our outstanding debt obligations when due and may seek, or be forced to seek, protection under the federal bankruptcy laws.
 
We are highly leveraged and we have very limited financial resources.  At March 31, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $319 and approximately $26,319 of total liabilities.
 
Our ability to borrow under the ComVest revolving credit facility and term loan would be compromised in the event of non-compliance with applicable covenants under the ComVest loan agreement.  Such non-compliance constitutes an event of default and, unless waived by ComVest, permits the lender to exercise its remedies under the ComVest loan agreement, including declaring all amounts owing under the revolving credit facility and the term loan, which constituted, in the aggregate, approximately $9,268 at March 31, 2009, to be immediately due and payable.  An event of default under the ComVest loan agreement also requires us to pay higher rates of interest on the amounts we owe to ComVest and, pursuant to a cross-default provision, may trigger an agreement termination event under the M&T loan agreement, which would, among other remedies available to M&T, result in the deferred obligations under such agreement, which constituted, in the aggregate, approximately $4,802 at March 31, 2009, becoming accelerated and immediately due and payable.
 
As of the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we did not make certain required principal installment payments of $675, in the aggregate, under the ComVest term loan.  The failure to make such payments constitutes an event of default under the ComVest loan agreement.  We are obligated to pay a default rate of 500 basis points over the prevailing rate on the foregoing amount, which difference between the default rate and the prevailing rate was not paid as of the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  On May 19, 2009, ComVest executed a waiver letter related to the ComVest loan agreement, referred to as the term loan waiver.  Pursuant to the term loan waiver, ComVest waived the foregoing defaults, provided that ComVest reserved the right to collect at a later time, but not later than the maturity date of the term loan under the loan agreement, the increased interest ComVest was permitted to charge during the continuance of such defaults.
 
Also listed as an event of default under the ComVest loan agreement is a default with respect to any other of our indebtedness exceeding $100, if the effect of such default would permit the lender to accelerate the maturity of such indebtedness.
 
 
73

 
 
CPR, our wholly-owned subsidiary, did not make certain payments of $50 in January, 2009 and $490, plus accrued interest of approximately $33, in April, 2009 under the note payable to Blue Lake.  On May 1, 2009, we received a notice from Blue Lake indicating CPR’s failure to pay such amounts and demanding that we immediately pay a total of approximately $573.  On May 13, 2009, ComVest executed a waiver letter, referred to as the Blue Lake waiver.  Pursuant to the Blue Lake waiver, effective May 1, 2009, ComVest waived the cross-default provision which was triggered by CPR’s failure to make the foregoing payments and all remedies available to ComVest as a result of the failure to make such payments, provided that such obligations would be satisfied solely with 900,000 shares released from escrow.  We are discussing with Blue Lake whether the issuance of such shares will constitute the full satisfaction of CPR’s obligations under the note payable to Blue Lake.
 
If adequate funds are not available, or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to repay our existing debt obligations, or obtain the necessary waivers, and we may seek protection under the federal bankruptcy laws or be forced into an involuntary bankruptcy filing.
 
ITEM 2. 
UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
 
On January 13, 2009, ClearPoint entered into the XRoads Agreement with XRoads.  In connection with expiration of the XRoads Agreement on May 13, 2009, ClearPoint issued to XRoads a warrant to purchase up to 100,000 shares of ClearPoint’s common stock at the exercise price of $0.12 per share (the “Warrant”).  Such Warrant is exercisable through December 31, 2010.  For additional information regarding the XRoads Agreement, as amended, see Part I, Item 2 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
 
ClearPoint offered and sold the Warrant in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, based upon a determination that the Warrant was being issued to a sophisticated investor that could fend for itself and that had access to, and was provided with, certain information that would otherwise be contained, or incorporated by reference, in a registration statement and there was no general solicitation.
 
ITEM 3.
DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.
 
Other than ClearPoint’s failure to make certain principal installment payments on the ComVest Term Loan discussed in Part II, Item 5 “Other Information” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference, there have been no defaults upon senior securities that were not previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K.
 
ITEM 4.
SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
 
None.
 
ITEM 5.
OTHER INFORMATION.
 
As of the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, ClearPoint did not make certain required principal installment payments in February, March and April, 2009 of $675, in the aggregate, under the ComVest Term Loan.  The failure to make such payments constitutes an event of default pursuant to the ComVest Loan Agreement.  In addition, a default under the ComVest Loan Agreement would trigger a cross-default provision pursuant to the M&T Restructure Agreement, unless the default under the ComVest Loan Agreement is waived in writing by ComVest.  ClearPoint is obligated to pay a default rate of 500 basis points over the prevailing interest rate on the foregoing amount, which difference between the default rate and the prevailing rate was not paid as of the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  On May 19, 2009, ComVest executed the Term Loan Waiver, pursuant to which ComVest waived the foregoing defaults, provided that ComVest reserved the right to collect at a later time, but not later than the maturity date of the ComVest Term Loan under the ComVest Loan Agreement, the increased interest ComVest was permitted to charge during the continuance of such defaults.
 
 
74

 
 
Effective May 14, 2009, the XRoads Agreement was amended pursuant to the XRoads Amendment dated May 18, 2009.  Pursuant to the XRoads Amendment, the term of the XRoads Agreement was extended to run from May 14, 2009 through August 13, 2009.  ClearPoint agreed to pay XRoads $45 per 30 day period of the XRoads Extension and the EBITDA Fee will remain at 10%, calculated in accordance with the XRoads Amendment, and subject to the cap of $50 per month.  In addition, pursuant to the XRoads Amendment, in the event Mr. Delle Donne is hired by ClearPoint, ClearPoint agreed to pay XRoads an aggregate of $250 as liquidated damages.  This amount is payable in the form of (i) $100 of cash due on Mr. Delle Donne’s hire date, (ii) a warrant to purchase ClearPoint’s common stock with a value of $100 based on the closing price on the day Mr. Delle Donne begins employment and (iii) a $50 promissory note bearing interest at 8% payable in four quarterly installments at the end of each calendar quarter following the start of Mr. Delle Donne’s employment.  The terms and conditions of the original XRoads Agreement which were not affected by the XRoads Amendment will remain in full force and effect during the XRoads Extension.
 
The foregoing is a summary of certain material provisions of the Term Loan Waiver and the XRoads Amendment.  This summary is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Term Loan Waiver and the XRoads Amendment, which are attached as Exhibits 10.5 and 10.2 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, respectively.
