Notes To Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

1.   Reorganization and Going Concern Uncertainty

Voluntary Bankruptcy Filing

     On February 2, 2004, (the “Commencement Date”), Remote Dynamics, Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc. (“Minorplanet” or the “Company”), and two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Caren (292) Limited (“Caren”) and Minorplanet Systems USA Limited (“Limited”) (Minorplanet, Caren and Limited shall hereinafter collectively be referred to as the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas Dallas Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”), in order to facilitate the restructuring of their debt, trade liabilities, and other obligations. During the pendency of the bankruptcy, the Debtors remained in possession of their assets and operated as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of Bankruptcy Code, the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and applicable court orders. On February 24, 2004, the United States Trustee appointed an official committee of unsecured creditors (the “Committee”) consisting of representatives of five (5) of the twenty (20) largest unsecured creditors.

     Under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, the filing of the bankruptcy petition automatically stayed most actions against the Company including most actions to collect pre-petition indebtedness or exercise control over the property of the Company’s estate. The Bankruptcy Court established April 9, 2004 as the bar date for creditors and other parties-in-interest (other than governmental entities) to file their proofs of claims and proofs of interest. The bar date for governmental entities to file their proofs of claims and proofs of interest was May 10, 2004. The aggregate amount of all pre-petition claims is not known at this time since the claims are still being reviewed and certain contract rejection proofs of claim may still be filed up to 30 days after the effective date of the Company’s plan of reorganization. Holders of pre-petition claims must seek recovery through the Company’s plan of reorganization.

     On June 15, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Company’s motion for substantive consolidation of the estates of Minorplanet, Caren and Limited.

     On May 24, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Debtors’ Second Amended Disclosure Statement (“Disclosure Statement”) for use to solicit the vote of creditors and equity interest holders on the acceptance or rejection of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization. The Bankruptcy Court also set the record date for purposes of voting on the Debtor’s plan of reorganization as May 21, 2004, approved solicitation/voting procedures of the plan of reorganization, and set hearing on the confirmation of the plan of reorganization for 1:30 p.m., June 28, 2004.

     On June 17, 2004, the Company and the Committee reached a settlement agreement on several matters regarding the plan of reorganization subject to bankruptcy court approval (the “Committee Settlement”). The material terms of the Committee Settlement were as follows:

  For purposes of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization, the Debtors and Committee agreed that the value of the Debtors shall be equal to $25.3 million, such that holders of allowed unsecured claims under the plan of reorganization shall receive 75%, and prior equity holders shall receive 25%, of the 7,000,000 shares of new common stock issued upon confirmation of the plan of reorganization.

  The Debtors and the Committee reached agreement on the composition of the Board of Directors of the Debtors upon emergence from bankruptcy;

  The Debtors and the Committee reached agreement on the general terms and conditions of new employment agreements for senior management of the Debtors.

  The Debtors and the Committee reached agreement on the general terms and conditions under which restricted shares would be issued to senior management of the Debtors.

Table of Contents

  The Debtors, HFS Minorplanet Funding LLC (“HFS”) and the Committee agreed to amend the April 15, 2004 letter agreement so that the price per share at which HFS may convert the unpaid principal and accrued interest due under the $1.575 million promissory note into common stock of the Company, shall be set at $3.62 per share of common stock, provided that such amount shall be reduced (i) by twenty percent (20%) if such unpaid principal and accrued interest is converted within one (1) year after the date the promissory note was issued or (ii) by fifteen percent (15%) if such unpaid principal and accrued interest is converted more than one (1) year after the date the promissory note was issued.

     The Committee further agreed that it would not object to, and both the Committee and the Debtors, using their best efforts, would affirmatively support approval of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization, settlement and confirmation of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization, in the form as modified by the terms hereof. On June 22, 2004, the Debtors filed their Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization to incorporate the settlement terms reached with the Committee.

     On June 29, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, as Modified (the “Plan”). The Bankruptcy Court also approved the Settlement Agreement between the Debtors and the Committee. The Bankruptcy Court further set the enterprise value of the Debtors at $25.3 million for purposes of distributions of new common stock under the Plan. The effective date of the Plan was set by the Debtors pursuant to the Plan as Friday, July 2, 2004 (the “Effective Date”). The Plan was substantially consummated on July 8, 2004.

     In general, pursuant to the Plan, as of the Effective Date:

  Holders of allowed administrative and priority claims will be paid in cash in the ordinary course as they come due or on such other terms as the parties may agree. Holders of allowed priority tax claims will receive periodic payments as provided under section 1129(a)(9)(C) of the Bankruptcy Code, unless the parties agree to other terms for the payment of such claims.

  Holders of allowed secured claims shall receive, at the election of the Debtors, either (i) payment in cash in an amount equivalent to the full amount of such holder’s allowed secured claim; (ii) deferred cash payments over a period of five (5) years after the initial distribution date totaling the amount of such holder’s allowed secured claim, with interest; (iii) the return of the collateral securing such allowed secured claim in full satisfaction of such claim, or (iv) such other treatment as may be agreed to in writing by such holder and the Company.

  Holders of allowed general unsecured claims will receive their pro rata share of seventy-five percent (75%) of seven million (7,000,000) shares of the new common stock of the Company on or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date.

  Each holder of an allowed convenience claim shall receive cash in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of their allowed claims, up to an aggregate maximum of one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000.00) for all such claims to be paid as soon as practicable following the Effective Date.

  All existing equity interests in the Company were extinguished as of the Effective Date. Each holder of an equity interest in Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc. that is attributable to existing common stock will receive a pro rata share of twenty-five percent (25%) of seven million (7,000,000) shares of the new common stock that is not issued to holders of allowed general unsecured claims. The holders of equity interests in Minorplanet, Limited and Caren, other than common stock, did not receive or retain any property under the Plan.

  The new common stock and the restricted shares were issued and distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan without further act or action under applicable law, regulation, order or rule and are exempt from registration under applicable securities law pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

  The Company initially distributed 7,000,000 shares of new common stock to satisfy holders of allowed general unsecured claims and holders of equity interests in Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc. that were attributable to existing common stock. The initial distribution of 7,000,000 shares of new common stock resulted in the satisfaction of approximately $17.6 million of allowed general unsecured claims. The Company has objected to approximately $1.5 million in general unsecured claims, which if allowed, would result in the issuance of additional shares of new common stock. Although the Company believes that some portion of the general unsecured claims objected to will be ultimately disallowed by the Bankruptcy Court, the Company cannot presently determine with certainty the total amount of claims objected to which will be allowed or disallowed. Additionally, as the Company has rejected certain executory contracts and unexpired leases, the other contracting party is entitled to a prepetition, general unsecured claim for the damages sustained as a result of the “breach of contract” caused by the rejection and must file a rejection proof of claim within 30 days of the Effective Date. The Company cannot predict with certainty the aggregate amount of rejection proof of claims that will be filed and ultimately allowed by the Bankruptcy Court resulting in the issuance of additional new common stock to such rejection claim holders.

  Caren and Limited, as a matter of law, were merged with and into Remote Dynamics, Inc., ceasing to exist as separate entities as of the Effective Date.

  the Company’s certificate of incorporation was amended and restated to change the Company’s corporate name to Remote Dynamics, Inc. on the Effective Date;

  the size of the board was increased to seven (7) directors with four (4) new directors being appointed by the Official Unsecured Creditors’ Committee on behalf of the unsecured creditors and three (3) directors to be appointed by the Debtors;

  a new restricted stock plan for key executive officers was approved;

  the Company entered into two (2) year term employment agreements with the following key executive officers including restricted stock grants to each officer:

  Dennis R. Casey – President and Chief Executive Officer
 
  J. Raymond Bilbao – Senior Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary
 
  W. Michael Smith – Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer & Treasurer

     The Plan received overwhelming acceptance with approximately 98.6% of the existing stockholders actually voting on the Plan, of which approximately 99.9% voted to accept the Plan. Additionally, approximately 75% of the unsecured creditors, who will receive their prorata share of 75% of the new common stock issued under the Plan, voted to accept the Plan. Under the Plan, holders of the Company’s 13.75% Interest Senior Notes due 2005 and holders of the Company’s common stock as of the close of trading on Friday, July 2, 2004 were entitled to receive their prorata distributions of new common stock under the Plan.

     Pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Company assumed, assumed as modified or rejected certain pre-petition executory contracts and unexpired leases upon the Effective Date. With respect to executory contracts assumed, the Company is required to cure all prepetition defaults, monetary and otherwise in one or more payments over a three-month period after the earlier of the Effective Date or the date the claim is allowed. With respect to executory contracts rejected, the Company is excused from further performance under such agreement and the Bankruptcy Code treats the rejected contract as if it were breached by the Company immediately prior to the Company’s filing of bankruptcy. The other contracting party is entitled to a prepetition, general unsecured claim for the damages sustained as a result of the “breach of contract” caused by the rejection. Under the Plan, rejection proofs of claim must be filed within 30 days of the Effective Date. See also Note 7.

Exit Financing

     On June 24, 2004, the Company entered into a Second Amended Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with HFS Minorplanet Funding LLC and other accredited investors which it represents (“HFS”), subject to bankruptcy court approval, for the provision of $1.575 million in exit financing to the Company in accordance with the Committee Settlement. On June 29, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving an exit credit facility to be provided by HFS to the Company in the amount of $1.575 million (the “Exit Financing”). On June 29, 2004, the Company and HFS closed on the Exit Financing. Upon funding, the Company agreed to issue a $1.575 million convertible promissory note to HFS with the principal balance being due 36 months from the date of funding, with an annual interest rate of 12 percent. HFS is required to provide the funding within 21 days of the June 29, 2004 closing. The Company is required to pay 36 monthly-accrued interest-only payments on the principal balance, with the initial interest payment due 30 days from funding. Following the initial year of the note, the Company may elect to repay the loan without premium or penalty. HFS may elect at any time prior to the maturity date of the note to convert all or any part of the principal or accrued interest to common stock.

     The price per share at which the conversion of unpaid principal and accrued interest may occur shall be $3.62 per share of common stock, provided that such amount shall be reduced (i) by 20% percent if such principal and accrued interest is converted within one year after the date the promissory note was issued or (ii) by 15% if such unpaid principal and accrued interest is converted more than one year after the date the promissory note was issued. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Company’s board of directors shall execute any documents or instruments or pass any corporate resolutions necessary to appoint to the board of directors of the Company one additional director designated by HFS (“Additional Designee”) unless such appointment would cause the Company to violate the independent director requirements, based on the written advice of legal counsel, as set forth in the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ Stock Exchange, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “SOX”) and the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the SOX. This Additional Designee shall serve on the Company’s board of directors until the promissory note is repaid in cash or repaid by conversion to common stock. Stephen CuUnjieng, the President of HFS, was employed by the Company as Director of Strategic Finance on January 30, 2004, immediately prior to the filing of the bankruptcy, to assist the Company with further fund raising. Mr. CuUnjieng, is a controlling partner in the HFS.

Critical Success Factors

     The Company believes that the potential market opportunity for automatic vehicle location products, such as the general packet radio service (“GPRS”) based next generation product line currently being developed by the Company, in the United States is significant (see Note 4). The Company believes that there are approximately 20 million private (not “for hire”) commercial vehicles in the United States, the majority of which are service or metro vehicles, and that this market is approximately five percent (5%) penetrated. The Company anticipates that over the next few years, the marketplace will become increasingly aware of the very substantial benefits that global positioning and vehicle telematics systems can bring to their fleet operations and such systems will become standard in commercial fleets, both large and small. Currently, competition in this market segment is fragmented, and no clear market leader exists. The Company believes it will be positioned with its telematics product lines and proven operations support to take advantage of the significant market potential. In addition, the Company has renewed its service vehicle contract (the “Service Vehicle Contract”) with the member companies of SBC Communications, Inc. (“SBC Companies”) for an additional term that ends on January 30, 2005. Also, as a result of the sale to Aether of certain assets and licenses related to the Company’s long-haul trucking and asset-tracking businesses, Aether is contractually obligated to continue to reimburse the Company for the network and airtime service costs related to providing service for HighwayMaster Series 5000 (“Series 5000”) units as long as such units remain active on the Company’s network. On July 8, 2003, the Company and Aether amended their transition services agreement to extend the transition period during which such Series 5000 units remain active on the Company’s network until January 30, 2005. On July 7, 2004, the Company and Aether further amended their transition services agreement to extend the transition services term through April 30, 2005 with such transition services term continuing thereafter on a month-to-month basis unless terminated by either party on sixty (60) days prior written notice.

Critical success factors in management’s plans to achieve positive cash flow from operations include:

  Ability to raise additional capital resources.

  Ability to complete development of a GPRS-based next generation product line.

  Renewal of the Service Vehicle Contract and entering into a new agreement with SBC to upgrade their fleets to the next generation product line.

  Significant market acceptance of the Company’s product offerings, including its next generation product line, in the United States.

  Maintain and expand the Company’s direct sales channel and expand into new markets not currently served by the Company. New salespersons will require training and time to become productive. In addition, there is significant competition for qualified salespersons, and the Company must continue to offer attractive compensation plans and opportunities to attract qualified salespersons.

  Maintain and expand indirect distribution channels.

  Secure and maintain adequate third party leasing sources for customers who purchase the Company’s products.

     There can be no assurances that any of these success factors will be realized or maintained. Although the Company believes it has exited the Chapter 11 process as a stronger and more financially viable entity, at this time it is not possible to accurately predict the effect of the bankruptcy filing on the Company’s business or what the disposition will be of all claims against the Company. It is possible that because of operating performance or other factors, the Company may not be able to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the Company urges that extreme caution be exercised with respect to existing and future investments in any of the Company’s securities. The Company’s future results depend on the timely and successful implementation of its Plan.

Accounting Impact of Voluntary Bankruptcy Filing

     The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Position 90-7 “Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code” (“SOP 90-7”). In accordance with SOP 90-7, the Company’s pre-petition liabilities that are subject to compromise are reported separately on the balance sheet at an estimated amount that will ultimately be allowed by the Bankruptcy Court. As of May 31, 2004, the Company’s pre-petition liabilities subject to compromise were as follows (in thousands):

     Pursuant to SOP 90-7, an objective of financial statements issued by an entity in Chapter 11 is to reflect its financial evolution during the proceeding. For that purpose, the financial statements of periods including and subsequent to filing the Chapter 11 petition should distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Certain expenses, realized gains and losses and provisions for losses resulting from the reorganization and restructuring of the business should be reported separately as reorganization items pursuant to SOP 90-7. Total reorganization items incurred to date by the Company are as follows (in thousands):

                 
    For the three   For the nine
    months ended   months ended

     As part of the bankruptcy reorganization proceedings, the Company was required to accept, accept as modified, or reject all executory contracts including the Vehicle Management Information (“VMI”) license right (see Note 4). At the time of the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company has estimated that its total cash outlay associated with pre-petition liability cure costs for accepted executory contracts, payment on allowed convenience claims and allowed priority tax claims in accordance with the Plan and payments for professional fees related to the reorganization to be approximately $4.0 million, of which approximately $0.3 million will represent a long-term payable for allowed priority tax claims. Accruals for estimated professional fee expenses related to the bankruptcy reorganization of $1.1 million are included in “Other current liabilities” on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

     In accordance with SOP 90-7, the Company stopped accruing interest on its 13.75% senior notes payable due September 15, 2005 as of the Commencement Date. Total interest expense on senior notes payable not accrued for the post-petition period after the Commencement Date through May 31, 2004 was approximately $0.7 million.

     Under accounting guidelines commonly referred to as “fresh start,” the reorganization value of the Company will be allocated to the Company’s assets in conformity with the procedures specified by Financial Accounting Standards Board in Statement of Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations “ (“FAS 141”). Thus, the fair value of all assets of the Company will be estimated upon emergence from bankruptcy and an adjustment to the fair value of long-lived assets may be required. Therefore, the fair values assigned to assets upon emergence may be different than the carrying values recorded as of May 31, 2004.

concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon, but not limited to, the ability of the Company to implement its Plan and ultimately achieve positive results of operations. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recorded amounts or reflect any amounts that may ultimately be paid to settle liabilities and contingencies which may be required due to the bankruptcy reorganization, or the effect of any changes, which may be made in connection with the Company’s operations resulting from the Plan.

2.   Name Change & Business Overview

     On July 2nd, the Effective Date, the Company’s certificate of incorporation was amended and restated to change its corporate name from Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc. to Remote Dynamics, Inc.

     The Company develops and implements mobile communications solutions for service vehicle fleets, long-haul truck fleets, and other mobile-asset fleets, including integrated voice, data and position location services. As a result of the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase and Exchange Agreement by and among the Company, Minorplanet Systems PLC, a United Kingdom public limited company (“Minorplanet UK”), and Mackay Shields LLC, dated February 14, 2001, the Company commenced marketing the VMI product licensed from Minorplanet Limited, the operating subsidiary of Minorplanet UK, into the automatic vehicle location (“AVL”) market in the United States during the last half of the calendar year 2001. The Company markets and sells the VMI product in Dallas, Texas; Houston, Texas; Atlanta, Georgia; and Los Angeles, California. VMI is designed to maximize the productivity of a mobile workforce as well as reduce vehicle mileage and fuel-related expenses. The VMI technology consists of: (i) a data control unit (“DCU”) that continually monitors and records a vehicle’s position, speed and distance traveled; (ii) a command and control center (“CCC”) which receives and stores in a database information downloaded from the DCU’s; and (iii) software used for communication, messaging and detailed reporting. VMI uses satellite-based Global Positioning System (“GPS”) location technology to acquire a vehicle location on a minute-by-minute basis and a global system for mobile communications (“GSM”) based cellular network to transmit data between the DCU’s and the CCC. GSM is a digital technology developed in Europe and has been adapted for North America. GSM is the most widely used wireless digital standard in the world. The VMI application is intended to be targeted to small and medium sized fleets in the metro marketplace.

     VMI provides minute-by-minute visibility into the activities of a mobile workforce via an extensive reporting system that provides real-time and exception-based reporting. Real-time reports provide information regarding a vehicle’s location, idling, stop time, speed and distance traveled. With real-time reporting, the user can view when an employee starts or finishes work, job site arrival times and site visit locations. In addition, exception reports allow the user to set various parameters within which vehicles must operate, and the system will report exceptions including speeding, extended stops, unscheduled stops, route deviations, visits to barred locations and excessive idling.

     The Company’s initial product offering, the Series 5000, was developed for and sold to companies that operate in the long-haul trucking market. The Company provides long-haul trucking companies with a comprehensive package of mobile communications and management information services, thereby enabling its trucking customers to effectively monitor the operations and improve the performance of their fleets. The initial product application was customized and has been sold to and installed in the service vehicle fleets of the SBC Companies pursuant to the Service Vehicle Contract. During the fourth calendar quarter of 1999, the Company entered the mobile asset tracking market with the introduction of its trailer-tracking product, TrackWare®. During the first calendar quarter of 2001, the Company began marketing and selling 20/20V™, a low-cost tracking product designed for small and medium sized fleets in the transportation marketplace.

     On March 15, 2002, the Company completed the sale to Aether of certain assets and licenses related to the Company’s long-haul trucking and asset-tracking businesses pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement effective as of March 15, 2002, by and between the Company and Aether (the “Sale”). Under the terms of the Sale, the Company sold to Aether assets and related license rights to its Platinum Service software solution, 20/20V™, and TrackWare® asset and trailer-tracking products. In addition, the Company and Aether agreed to form a strategic relationship with respect to the Company’s long-haul customer products, pursuant to which the Company assigned to Aether all service revenues generated post-closing from its Series 5000 customer base. Aether, in turn, agreed to reimburse the Company for the network and airtime service costs related to providing the Series 5000 service.

3.   Basis of Presentation & Significant Accounting Policies

     The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein include those of Remote Dynamics Inc., formerly known as Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries: HighwayMaster of Canada, LLC, Caren and Limited. Caren and Limited were merged into Remote Dynamics, Inc. on the Effective Date of the Plan and cease to exist as separate entities. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the year ended August 31, 2003. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (all of which are of a normal recurring nature), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year.

Reverse Stock Split

     All shares and earnings per share amounts for all periods presented have been restated to reflect the reverse stock split effected December 3, 2003, as described in Note 9.

Revenue Recognition

     The Company recognizes revenue from its long haul trucking Series 5000 mobile units under the provisions of EITF No. 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements With Multiple Deliverables” (“EITF 00-21”) and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB 101”). Under EITF 00-21 and SAB 101, initial sale proceeds received under multiple-element sales arrangements which require the Company to deliver products or services over a period of time and which are not determined by the Company to meet certain criteria are deferred. These criteria include requirements for a separate earnings process, fair value determinations, and that the delivery of future products or services under the arrangement are not required for the delivered items to serve their intended purpose. Sales proceeds related to delivered products that are deferred are recognized over the greater of the contract life or the estimated life of the customer relationship. The Company estimated such periods to range from three to ten years. The Company’s estimate of the life of a customer relationship is determined based upon the Company’s historical experience with its customers together with the Company’s estimate of the remaining life of the applicable product offering. Sales proceeds recognized under this method are portrayed in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as “Ratable product revenues.” The related deferred revenue is classified as a current and long term liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets under the captions “Deferred product revenues – current portion” and “Deferred product revenues- non-current portion.” If the customer relationship is terminated prior to the end of the estimated customer relationship period, such deferred sales proceeds are recognized as revenue in the period of termination. The Company periodically reviews its estimates of the customer relationship period as compared to historical results and adjusts its estimates prospectively. Under sales arrangements, which meet the three criteria described above, revenues are recognized upon shipment of the products or upon customer acceptance of the delivered products if terms of the sales arrangement give the customer the right of acceptance. Sales arrangements recognized upon delivery and acceptance relate primarily to products delivered under the Service Vehicle Contract.

     The VMI product includes both hardware and software components. Due to the interdependency of the functionality of these components, revenue recognition is governed by EITF 00-21, SAB 101, and Statement of Position 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (“SOP 97-2”). Under EITF 00-21 and SAB 101, initial sale proceeds received under multiple-element sales arrangements which require the Company to deliver products or services over a period of time and which are not determined by the Company to meet certain criteria are deferred. Currently, the Company resells wireless airtime to many customers of its VMI products over the contract term; therefore, in accordance with SAB 101, the Company defers these VMI product revenues. In addition, the Company has also deferred revenue consistent with the provisions of SOP 97-2. For those customers that do not purchase wireless airtime service directly from the Company, revenue is deferred under the provisions of SOP 97-2 which requires deferral if a significant portion of the software licensing fee is not due until more than twelve months after delivery and vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for post contract services is not available. VMI product sales are recognized ratably over the customer contract term.

13


Table of Contents

Such terms range from one to five years. VMI product sales proceeds recognized under this method are portrayed in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as “Ratable product revenues.” The related deferred revenue is classified as a current and long term liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets under the captions “Deferred product revenues – current portion” and “Deferred product revenues non-current portion.” If the customer relationship is terminated prior to the end of the customer contract term, such deferred sales proceeds are recognized as revenue in the period of termination.

     Service revenue generally commences upon product installation and customer acceptance, and is billed and recognized during the period such services are provided.

Stock Based Compensation

     The Company applies the intrinsic value method of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations, in accounting for its stock option plans. Accordingly, compensation expense would be recorded at the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. On December 3, 2003, the Company effected a reverse stock split at which time the terms of all outstanding stock options were not adjusted triggering variable accounting for such options in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force 00-23. Thus, compensation cost associated with these stock options is measured and accrued at the end of each accounting period at the amount by which the quoted market value of the Company’s stock exceeds the stock option exercise price. All common stock and other equity interests (including but not limited to warrants, stock options and anti-dilutive rights), outstanding as of May 31, 2004, were extinguished as of the Effective Date of the Plan.

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (“SFAS 123”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” established accounting and disclosure requirements using a fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans. As allowed by SFAS 123, the Company has elected to continue to apply the intrinsic-value based method of accounting described above, and has adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure,” pro forma net loss and net loss per share disclosures, as if the Company recorded compensation expense based on the fair value of stock-based awards, are presented below (in thousands, except per share data):

Business Concentrations

     During the three months ended May 31, 2004 and 2003, one customer and Aether Systems accounted for approximately 68% and 70%, respectively, of the Company’s total revenues. During the nine months ended May 31, 2004 and 2003, one customer and Aether Systems accounted for approximately 70% and 74%, respectively, of the Company’s total revenues.

4.   VMI License Right Settlement and Impairment Loss

     The Company currently believes that it must modify its current automatic vehicle location business model to a recurring revenue model in order to create long-term enterprise value for its stockholders. The Company has further determined that in order to fully exploit the AVL market in the U.S. in a recurring revenue business model, the Company must develop and introduce an AVL product which utilizes GPRS for data transmission along with the AVL software which is hosted by the Company in a service bureau environment allowing customers to access their data via the Internet or dedicated frame relay. The Company further believes that a GPRS-enabled AVL mobile unit will provide substantial savings in wireless transmission costs over the current GSM circuit-switched data VMI unit and will further allow the Company to substantially reduce its customer support and maintenance costs by avoiding costly maintenance visits to customer premises to service the CCC component of the VMI system. In early 2003, the Company requested that Minorplanet UK develop a GPRS-enabled VMI unit and modify the VMI software to be hosted in a web environment. Minorplanet UK initially scheduled delivery of the GPRS-enabled mobile unit and web-hosted software on or before September 2003. However, Minorplanet UK has been unable to deliver a commercially viable GPRS-enabled mobile unit and web-hosted software and recently announced that it had elected to outsource the development of web-hosted software, which would not be available until mid-2005.

     In conjunction with its development of the next-generation product for the SBC Companies, the Company commenced the internal development a GPRS-enabled mobile unit and web-hosted AVL software during the first calendar quarter of 2004, which can be hosted by the Company using its existing NSC complex with minor modifications and minimal capital expenditures (the “Next Generation Product”). Customers using the Next Generation Product will access their data via the Internet or dedicated frame relay. The Company currently anticipates commercially launching the Next Generation Product by the first calendar quarter of 2005. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to commercially launch the Next Generation Product by the first calendar quarter of 2005, and failure to do so may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

     Accordingly, the Company notified Minorplanet UK that it intended to reject the VMI license as part of its plan of reorganization and initiated negotiations with Minorplanet UK for a temporary use license to market and sell the VMI product until the Company’s Next Generation Product is commercially available to ensure a smooth transition to the Next Generation Product. On June 14, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court approved a Compromise and Settlement Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and among the Debtors and Minorplanet Limited and Minorplanet Systems plc regarding the license agreement for the VMI technology which allows the Debtors to use, market and sell the VMI technology until December 31, 2004. The material terms of the VMI Settlement Agreement include the following:

(1)   On June 30, 2004, the VMI license agreement converted to a nonexclusive license until December 31, 2004 when it shall terminate.
 
(2)   From the period beginning June 30, 2004 through December 31, 2004, the territory in which the Debtors may market, sell and use the VMI system shall be reduced to the following metropolitan areas: Los Angeles, California; Atlanta, Georgia; Dallas, Texas; and Houston, Texas.
 
(3)   On July 31, 2004, the Debtors shall no longer use the name, “Minorplanet,” nor any derivative thereof, and shall remove and refrain from using any references to said name.
 
(4)   The Debtors shall provide Minorplanet Limited, at no cost, 100 AEM 3000 VMI units to USA specifications with accompanying special tariff SIM’s for T-Mobile.
 
(5)   Subsequent to December 31, 2004, the Debtors have the right to use the VMI software internally for the sole purpose of satisfying its warranty, service and support obligations to its existing VMI customer base.
 
(6)   Minorplanet Limited shall be allowed a general unsecured claim in the amount of $1,000,000.00 in Limited’s bankruptcy case no. 04-31202-SAF-11. On the Effective Date, Minorplanet Limited shall release and waive its administrative claim and, as of such date, shall waive any future R&D fees due under Section 16.4 of the VMI license agreement.
 
(7)   The Debtors provided to Minorplanet Limited and Minorplanet Systems plc a general release of any and all claims which could have been asserted against Minorplanet Limited or Minorplanet Systems plc by the Debtors.

     See the Form 8-K filed by the Company on June 14, 2004 that contains additional information.

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”) requires management of the Company to review for impairment of its long-lived assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset might not be recoverable and exceeds its fair value. Thus, management used an expected present value technique, in which multiple cash flow scenarios that reflect the range of possible outcomes and a risk-free rate are used, to estimate the fair value of the VMI license right at $2.8 million as of May 31, 2004. The Company recognized an impairment loss of $28.8 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2004. Based on the Company’s projected future cash flows from the VMI product, the remaining $2.8 million fair value of the license right is being amortized over a four-year life.

5.   Related Party Transactions

     As of August 31, 2003, Minorplanet UK owned 62 percent of the Company’s outstanding common stock and thus controlled the Company. On October 6, 2003, Minorplanet UK transferred 42.1 percent of the Company’s outstanding common stock to Erin Mills Investment Corporation (“Erin Mills”), ending Minorplanet UK’s majority ownership position in the Company. As May 31, 2004, Minorplanet UK retained 19.9 percent of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Subsequent to the issuance of new common stock under the Plan, Minorplanet UK will own approximately 9 percent of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

     In connection with the Minorplanet UK share transfer to Erin Mills, the Company also obtained an option to repurchase from Erin Mills up to 3.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.05 for every 1,000 shares, pursuant to that certain Stock Repurchase Option Agreement between the Company and Erin Mills dated August 15, 2003. Gerry Quinn, the president of Erin Mills, currently serves on the Company’s board of directors. On July 1, 2004, prior to the extinguishment of the Company’s existing common stock in accordance with the Plan, the Company repurchased the 3.9 million shares of common stock from Erin Mills for a nominal sum.

     In addition, concurrently with the October 6, 2003 transfer of common stock from Minorplanet UK to Erin Mills, the Company also reached the following agreements with Minorplanet UK:

  Minorplanet UK irrevocably waived certain approval rights granted to the Minorplanet UK Directors, including the right to appoint members to the Company’s board of directors, as are currently provided for in that certain Stock Purchase and Exchange Agreement dated February 14, 2001 and the Company’s bylaws;

  Minorplanet UK waived $1.76 million of accrued executive consulting fees that it had previously billed to the Company.

  The exclusive License and Distribution Agreement, which grants to the Company’s United Kingdom-based subsidiary a 99-year, royalty-free, exclusive right and license to market, sell and commercially exploit the VMI technology in the United States, Canada and Mexico, was amended to grant Minorplanet UK, or its designee, the right to market and sell the VMI technology, on a non-exclusive basis, in the Northeast region of the United States. The Company retained the right to market and sell the VMI technology under the Minorplanet name and logo in this Northeast region. Such rights were later modified under the VMI settlement agreement with Minorplanet UK discussed in Note 4.

  Minorplanet UK obtained anti-dilution rights from the Company, under which it has the right to subscribe for and to purchase at the same price per share as the offering or private sale, that number of shares necessary to maintain the lesser of (i) the percentage holdings of the Company’s stock on the date of subscription or (ii) 19.9 percent of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. Minorplanet UK’s anti-dilution rights were extinguished on the Effective Date of the Plan.

See the Form 8-K’s filed by the Company on August 27, 2003 and October 14, 2003 respectively, which contain additional information.

     Prior to the Effective Date of the Plan, the Company paid Minorplanet Limited, the operating subsidiary of Minorplanet UK, $1.0 million annually to aid in funding research and development of future products covered by the license right. In accordance with the VMI license settlement agreement discussed in Note 4, Minorplanet UK irrevocably waived any claims for future research and development fees due under Section 16.4 of the VMI license agreement.

     On September 26, 2002, the Company entered into a letter addendum to the exclusive license and distribution agreement with Minorplanet Limited to provide executive and non-executive sales and marketing consulting services for the six-month period from August 23, 2002 to February 22, 2003. Under terms of the agreement, the Company was not required to pay the executive consulting fees incurred during this six-month period totaling $1.76 million unless and until the Company filed a Form 10-K reporting net income and positive cash flow for the previous 12-month period. As of August 31, 2003 a liability for the $1.76 million in executive consulting fees, payable to Minorplanet Limited, was included on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets under “Other non-current liabilities.” On October 6, 2003, Minorplanet UK forever waived and discharged the $1.76 million executive consulting fees owed by the Company. Thus, the $1.76 million liability was reversed and effectively converted to a capital contribution by Minorplanet UK to the Company. In addition, a $0.3 million liability payable to Minorplanet UK for non-executive consulting costs was converted to a capital contribution during the nine months ended May 31, 2004. The offsetting credits have been reflected in additional paid-in capital on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

     Other current liabilities in the above table included the unpaid portion of the non-executive sales and marketing contract services and research and development costs as of August 31, 2003. As of May 31, 2004, liabilities subject to compromise in the above table include accruals for research and development costs that shall be allowed as a general unsecured claim under the Company’s Plan.

6.   Cash and cash equivalents

     Cash and cash equivalents of $3.3 million at May 31, 2004 included $475,000 in cash held in escrow accounts on behalf of the Company by third parties providing professional services for the Company during the ongoing bankruptcy proceedings. The Bankruptcy Court has not yet approved payment for such professional services.

7.   Commitments and Contingencies

Product Warranty Guarantees

     The Company provides a limited warranty on all VMI product sales, at no additional cost to the customer, that provides for replacement of defective parts during the contract term, typically ranging from one to five years. The Company also provides limited two-year warranties to replace defective parts on units sold to the SBC Companies under

Compromise Settlement Agreement

     During the first calendar quarter of 2001, the outsource manufacturer (the “Vendor”) that supplied substantially all of the Company’s finished goods inventory asserted a claim for reimbursement for excess and obsolete inventory purchased in its capacity as the manufacturer of the Company’s products. This claim was disputed by the Company. As a result of this dispute, beginning in April 2001, the Vendor ceased to perform on its contract to provide finished goods inventory and certain other services to the Company. The claims and counterclaims ultimately led to each of the parties filing litigation against the other. The Vendor and the Company executed a Compromise Settlement Agreement on October 9, 2001. The Company recorded a provision of $2.1 million during 2001 and an additional $0.1 million during the eight months ended August 31, 2002 as its estimate of the cost to be incurred to settle this litigation, of which $0.5 million was paid during 2001.

     On April 4, 2003, the Company and the Vendor entered into an amendment to the Compromise Settlement Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue purchase orders to the Vendor for the manufacture of 6,000 VMI data control units in lieu of and in full and final settlement of the Company’s obligation to make the final $1.7 million payment to the Vendor under the Compromise Settlement Agreement. Specifically, the Company agreed to issue to the Vendor twelve separate purchase orders for the manufacture of a total of 6,000 VMI data control units to be delivered over a twelve-month period. In addition to the agreed upon unit price of the data control units, the Company agreed to pay a $275 surcharge per unit which will compensate the Vendor for the remaining $1.7 million payable under the Compromise Settlement Agreement. The Company agreed to take delivery of the initial lot of 500 units within 30 days of the Company’s approval of the Vendor’s first production article with an additional 500 units being delivered to the Company on the first day of each month thereafter until all 6,000 units have been delivered. Payment for each 500-unit lot was due upon receipt of each shipment. The Company had not approved the Vendor’s first production article prior to the filing bankruptcy petition on February 2, 2004. However, the Company had agreed to begin making monthly payments to the Vendor with respect to the final $1.7 million payment due to the Vendor under the Compromise Settlement Agreement. Such monthly payments ceased upon filing of the bankruptcy petition and the liability for any additional payments due under the settlement became a prepetition unsecured claim for which the Vendor must seek recovery through the Plan. The remaining payable due to the Vendor under the Compromise Settlement Agreement of $1.3 million is included in “Liabilities subject to compromise” on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at May 31, 2004.

Provision for Potential Losses on Rejection of Executory Contracts and Other Claims

     As part of the current plan of reorganization, the Company was required to accept, accept as modified, or reject all pre-petition executory contracts and unexpired leases. Upon rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease, the Company is generally excused from further performance under the contract. The contracting party has a claim for the Company’s failure to perform as if the breach of contract occurred immediately prior to the filing of the bankruptcy petition. Contracting parties to these rejected contracts or unexpired leases may file proofs of claim against the Company’s estate for damages, if any, relating to such rejections. Although the Company cannot presently determine with certainty the ultimate aggregate liability that will result from the filing of claims relating to such contracts or unexpired leases that have been rejected, the Company has accrued a $0.9 million provision for probable losses on rejected executory contracts, unexpired leases, and other claims. Such liability is included in “Liabilities subject to compromise” on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at May 31, 2004. It is reasonably possible that a change in this estimated liability for probable losses on rejected executory contracts, unexpired leases, and other claims may occur in the near term.

8.   Segment Reporting

     The Company’s reportable segments offer different products and/or services. Each segment also requires different technology and marketing strategies. The Company’s two reportable segments are VMI and Network Service Center Systems (“NSC Systems”).

     During the last half of the 2001 calendar year, the Company commenced marketing the VMI product licensed from Minorplanet Limited into the AVL marketplace in the United States. VMI is designed to maximize the productivity of a mobile workforce as well as reduce vehicle mileage and fuel related expenses. The VMI technology consists of: (i) a data control unit that continually monitors and records a vehicle’s position, speed and distance traveled; (ii) a command and control center which receives and stores in a database information downloaded from the DCU’s; and (iii) software used for communication, messaging and detailed reporting. VMI uses the satellite-based global positioning system to acquire a vehicle location on a minute-by-minute basis and a global system for mobile communications based cellular network to transmit data between the DCU’s and the CCC. The VMI application is targeted to small and medium-sized fleets in the metro marketplace.

     Through its NSC Systems segment, the Company provides long-haul trucking companies with a comprehensive package of mobile communications and management information services, thereby enabling its trucking customers to effectively monitor the operations and improve the performance of their fleets. The initial product application was customized and has been sold to and installed in the service vehicle fleets of the member companies of SBC Communications, Inc., pursuant to the Service Vehicle Contract.

     Prior to the Sale to Aether, the Company also provided mobile asset tracking solutions with its trailer-tracking products, TrackWare® and 20/20V™. On March 15, 2002, the Company completed the Sale to Aether of certain NSC Systems assets and licenses related to the Company’s long-haul trucking and asset-tracking businesses pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement effective as of March 15, 2002, by and between the Company and Aether. Pursuant to the terms of the Sale, these products continued to use the Company’s Network Service Center to relay voice and messages between the mobile units and the customer’s dispatchers.

     Operating expenses are allocated to each segment based on management’s estimate of the utilization of financial resources by each segment. The following tables set forth segment financial information (in thousands).

9.   NASDAQ Listing Notices and Reverse Stock Split

     On October 8, 2003, the Company received notice from the NASDAQ Listings Qualifications Staff stating that the Company was not in compliance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4), which requires the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock to be at least $1.00 per share. As NASDAQ had previously granted two 180-day extensions, the Company was given 90 additional calendar days, or until January 6, 2004, to demonstrate 10 consecutive trading days whereby the minimum bid price for the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more.

     On October 9, 2003, the Company’s board of directors approved the amendment of Article IV of the Company’s certificate of incorporation, and additional actions, to effect a one-for-five reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding common stock. On November 7, 2003, Mackay Shields LLC (“Mackay”) and Erin Mills Investment Corporation (“Erin Mills”), stockholders collectively holding more than 50% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, executed a stockholder consent approving the one-for-five reverse stock split. As of November 7, 2003, prior to the reverse stock split, Mackay owned 10,699,794 shares and Erin Mills owned 22,196,182 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, which was approximately 22% and 46%, respectively, of the total number of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, its sole voting security. Under Delaware law, any action that is required to be taken, or that may be taken, at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of a Delaware corporation may be taken, without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a written consent, setting forth the action taken, is signed by the holder or holders of the outstanding voting securities having not less than the minimum number of votes necessary to authorize such action.

     On November 12, 2003, the Company filed a Definitive Information Statement on Schedule 14C with the SEC, and mailed the Information Statement to stockholders of record as of November 7, 2003. On December 3, 2003, the Company announced that the one-for-five reverse stock split took effect at the opening of trading on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market. The reverse split reduced the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock to 9,669,832 from 48,349,161 shares previously outstanding. All shares and earnings per share amounts for all periods presented have been restated to reflect the reverse stock split.

Table of Contents

     On December 17, 2003, NASDAQ notified the Company that it had complied with the NASDAQ requirement to record 10 consecutive trading days in which the Company’s common stock closed with a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share or higher and that the Company’s listing on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market was in good standing.

     On February 2, 2004, the Company also received a letter from the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Staff indicating that, as a result of the Company’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing in accordance with the Staff’s authority under NASDAQ Marketplace Rules 4330(a)(1) and 4300, the Company’s securities would be delisted from The NASDAQ Stock Market at the opening of business on Feb. 11, 2004, unless the Company requested a hearing in accordance with the Marketplace Rule 4800 Series. The Company requested and attended an oral hearing on March 11, 2004 before the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”) to appeal the Staff’s decision in accordance with Marketplace Rule 4800 Series.

     On April 20, 2004, the Company received a letter from the Panel, notifying the Company that it no longer satisfies the minimum bid requirement set forth in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4) and that the Panel would consider this additional noncompliance in rendering its decision regarding the Company’s continued listing on the NASDAQ Stock Market. The Panel also requested an additional submission to address the compliance with the minimum bid requirement. Although there can be no assurances, the Company currently believes that after the Effective date of the Plan, it will be able to regain compliance with the minimum bid requirement.

     On May 3, 2004, the Company received a written determination notice from the Panel indicating that the Company’s securities would remain conditionally listed on The NASDAQ SmallCap market subject to certain exceptions. On May 6, 2004, the Panel issued a written determination which restated its May 3, 2004 determination with minor modifications. On May 24, 2004, the Company received a written determination notice from the Panel which amended the Panel’s May 6, 2004 written determination indicating that the Company’s securities would remain conditionally listed on The NASDAQ SmallCap market subject to the following exceptions:

  on or before May 28, 2004, the Company must submit documentation to NASDAQ evidencing that a hearing before the Bankruptcy Court for the approval of the Company’s Disclosure Statement was held; and
 
  on or before June 30, 2004, the Company must submit documentation to NASDAQ evidencing confirmation of the Company’s plan of reorganization by the Bankruptcy Court and compliance with all requirements for continued listing on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market upon emergence from bankruptcy except for those deficiencies for which the Company has been granted a “grace period” within which to regain compliance.
 
  on or before August 9, 2004, the Company must evidence a market value of publicly held shares of at least $1,000,000 and, immediately thereafter, a market value of publicly held shares of at least $1,000,000 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days.

     The Company believes that it has complied with two of the conditions of continued listing as previously required by the Panel, having submitted documentation to the Panel evidencing that the hearing before the Bankruptcy Court for the approval of the Company’s Disclosure Statement was held on May 24, 2004, and having submitted documentation to the Panel evidencing confirmation of the Company’s Plan by the Bankruptcy Court on June 29, 2004 and compliance with all requirements for continued listing on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market upon emergence from bankruptcy except for those deficiencies for which the Company has been granted a “grace period” within which to regain compliance.

     As of May 31, 2004, after recording the $28.8 million write-down of the VMI license right as discussed in Note 4, the Company had a stockholder’s deficit of $14.7 million. Thus, the Company did not meet the $2.5 million minimum stockholders’ equity balance required under the NASDAQ SmallCap Marketplace Rule 4310 (c)(2) for continued listing. Upon emergence from bankruptcy in July of 2004 and completion of the conversion of pre-petition debt to common stock under the Plan, as well as the application of fresh start accounting, the Company currently estimates that it will have a positive stockholders’ equity balance in the range of $8 million to $12 million. Therefore, the Company expects it will comply with the NASDAQ SmallCap Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(2) for continued listing.

10.   Stockholders’ Deficit & NASDAQ Continued Listing Requirements

     As of May 31, 2004, after recording the $28.8 million write-down of the VMI license right as discussed in Note 4, the Company had a stockholder’s deficit of $14.7 million. Thus, the Company did not meet the $2.5 million minimum stockholders’ equity balance required under the NASDAQ SmallCap Marketplace Rule 4310 (c)(2) for continued listing. Upon emergence from bankruptcy in July of 2004 and completion of the conversion of pre-petition debt to common stock under the Plan, as well as the application of fresh start accounting, the Company currently estimates that it will have a positive stockholders’ equity balance in the range of $8 million to $12 million. Therefore, the Company expects it will comply with the NASDAQ SmallCap Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(2) for continued listing.

11.   Change in Principal Independent Public Accountants

     On March 15, 2004, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the dismissal of and dismissed Deloitte Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) who previously served as the Company’s principal independent public accountants.

     On November 7, 2003 Deloitte completed its audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of August 31, 2003 and 2002, and for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2003 and the eight month period ended August 31, 2002, and issued a report thereon dated November 7, 2003 which expressed an unqualified opinion and included explanatory paragraphs concerning the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern (the “November 7, 2003 Report”). The November 7, 2003 Report is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2003 which was previously filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 1, 2003.

     Except as contained in Deloitte’s November 7, 2003 Report, Deloitte’s reports on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the eight month transition period ended August 31, 2002 and for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2003 do not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion or a qualification or modification as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

     During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through March 19, 2004, there were no disagreements with Deloitte on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to Deloitte’s satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for such years, and there were no reportable events, as listed in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

     On March 19, 2004, following their review of the Company’s disclosure contained herein in response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K, Deloitte furnished the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission stating that it agrees with the statements made by the Company contained herein in response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K.

     On March 15, 2004, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved the engagement of BDO Seidman LLP (“BDO”), to serve as the Company’s principal independent public accountants to audit the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year 2004, subject to the final approval of the Bankruptcy Court. On May 10, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order authorizing the Company to employ and retain BDO.

     During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through March 19, 2004, the Company did not consult BDO with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, or any other matters or reportable events listed in Items 304 (a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

     Remote Dynamics, Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as Minorplanet Systems USA Inc., (“Minorplanet” or the “Company”) develops and implements mobile communications solutions for service vehicle fleets, long-haul truck fleets, and other mobile-asset fleets, including integrated voice, data and position location services. As a result of the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase and Exchange Agreement by and among the Company, Minorplanet Systems PLC, a United Kingdom public limited company (“Minorplanet UK “), and Mackay Shields LLC, dated February 14, 2001, the Company commenced marketing the Vehicle Management Information ™ (“VMI”) product licensed from Minorplanet Limited, the operating subsidiary of Minorplanet UK, into the automatic vehicle location (“AVL”) market in the United States during the last half of 2001. VMI is designed to maximize the productivity of a mobile workforce as well as reduce vehicle mileage and fuel related expenses. The VMI technology consists of: (i) a data control unit (“DCU”) that continually monitors and records a vehicle’s position, speed and distance traveled; (ii) a command and control center (“CCC”) which receives and stores in a database information downloaded from the DCU’s; and (iii) software used for communication, messaging and detailed reporting. VMI uses satellite-based Global Positioning System (“GPS”) location technology to acquire a vehicle location on a minute-by-minute basis and a global system for mobile communications (“GSM”) based cellular network to transmit data between the DCU’s and the CCC. GSM is a digital technology developed in Europe and has been adapted for North America. GSM is the most widely used wireless digital standard in the world. The VMI application is intended to be targeted to small and medium sized fleets in the metro marketplace.

     VMI provides minute-by-minute visibility into the activities of a mobile workforce via an extensive reporting system that provides real-time and exception-based reporting. Real-time reports provide information regarding a vehicle’s location, idling, stop time, speed and distance traveled. With real-time reporting, the user can view when an employee starts or finishes work, job site arrival times and site visit locations. In addition, exception reports allow the user to set various parameters within which vehicles must operate, and the system will report exceptions including speeding, extended stops, unscheduled stops, route deviations, visits to barred locations and excessive idling.

     Through its NSC Systems segment, the Company provides long-haul trucking companies with a comprehensive package of mobile communications and management information services, thereby enabling its trucking customers to effectively monitor the operations and improve the performance of their fleets. The initial product application was customized and has been sold to and installed in the service vehicle fleets of the member companies of SBC Communications, Inc. (“SBC Companies”), pursuant to the service vehicle contract (the “Service Vehicle Contract” or “Contract”). Prior to the sale to Aether Systems Inc. of certain assets and licenses, the Company also provided mobile asset tracking solutions with its trailer-tracking products, TrackWare® and 20/20V™.

     On March 15, 2002, the Company completed the sale to Aether Systems, Inc. (“Aether”) of certain assets and licenses related to the Company’s long-haul trucking and asset-tracking businesses pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement effective as of March 15, 2002, by and between the Company and Aether (the “Sale”). Under the terms of the Sale, the Company sold to Aether assets and related license rights to its Platinum Service software solution, 20/20V™, and TrackWare® asset and trailer-tracking products. In addition, the Company and Aether agreed to form a strategic relationship with respect to the Company’s long-haul customer products, pursuant to which the Company assigned to Aether all service revenues generated post-closing from its HighwayMaster Series 5000 (“Series 5000”) customer base. Aether, in turn, agreed to reimburse the Company for the network and airtime service costs related to providing the Series 5000 service. Hereinafter, Series 5000 units for which the Company provides network services are referred to as network services subscribers.

Bankruptcy Proceedings

     On February 2, 2004, (the “Commencement Date”), Minorplanet and two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Caren (292) Limited (“Caren”) and Minorplanet Systems USA Limited (“Limited”) (Minorplanet, Caren and Limited shall hereinafter collectively be referred to as the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas Dallas Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”), in order to facilitate the restructuring of their debt, trade liabilities, and other obligations. During the pendency of the bankruptcy, the Debtors remained in possession of their assets and operated as “debtors-in-

23


Table of Contents

possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of Bankruptcy Code, the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and applicable court orders. On February 24, 2004, the United States Trustee appointed an official committee of unsecured creditors (the “Committee”) consisting of representatives of five (5) of the twenty (20) largest unsecured creditors.

     Under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, the filing of the bankruptcy petition automatically stayed most actions against the Company including most actions to collect pre-petition indebtedness or exercise control over the property of the Company’s estate. The Bankruptcy Court established April 9, 2004 as the bar date for creditors and other parties-in-interest (other than governmental entities) to file their proofs of claims and proofs of interest. The bar date for governmental entities to file their proofs of claims and proofs of interest was May 10, 2004. The aggregate amount of all pre-petition claims is not known at this time since the claims are still being reviewed and certain contract rejection proofs of claim may still be filed up to 30 days after the Effective Date of the Plan. Holders of pre-petition claims must seek recovery through the Company’s Plan.

     On June 15, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Company’s motion for substantive consolidation of the estates of Minorplanet, Caren and Limited.

     On May 24, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Debtors’ Second Amended Disclosure Statement (“Disclosure Statement”) for use to solicit the vote of creditors and equity interest holders on the acceptance or rejection of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization. The Bankruptcy Court also set the record date for purposes of voting on the Debtor’s plan of reorganization as May 21, 2004, approved solicitation/voting procedures of the plan of reorganization, and set hearing on the confirmation of the plan of reorganization for 1:30 p.m., June 28, 2004.

     On June 17, 2004, the Company and the Committee reached a settlement agreement on several matters regarding the Plan subject to bankruptcy court approval (the “Committee Settlement”). The material terms of the Committee Settlement were as follows:

  For purposes of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization, the Debtors and Committee agreed that the value of the Debtors shall be equal to $25.3 million, such that holders of allowed unsecured claims under the Plan shall receive 75%, and prior equity holders shall receive 25%, of the 7,000,000 shares of new common stock issued upon confirmation of the Plan.

  The Debtors and the Committee reached agreement on the composition of the Board of Directors of the Debtors upon emergence from bankruptcy;

  The Debtors and the Committee reached agreement on the general terms and conditions of new employment agreements for senior management of the Debtors.

  The Debtors and the Committee reached agreement on the general terms and conditions under which restricted shares would be issued to senior management of the Debtors.

  The Debtors, HFS Minorplanet Funding LLC (“HFS”) and the Committee agreed to amend the April 15, 2004 letter agreement so that the price per share at which HFS may convert the unpaid principal and accrued interest due under the $1.575 million promissory note into common stock of the Company, shall be set at $3.62 per share of common stock, provided that such amount shall be reduced (i) by twenty percent (20%) if such unpaid principal and accrued interest is converted within one (1) year after the date the promissory note was issued or (ii) by fifteen percent (15%) if such unpaid principal and accrued interest is converted more than one (1) year after the date the promissory note was issued.

     The Committee further agreed that it would not object to, and both the Committee and the Debtors, using their best efforts, would affirmatively support approval of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization, settlement and confirmation of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization, in the form as modified by the terms hereof. On June 22, 2004, the Debtors filed their Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) to incorporate the settlement terms reached with the Committee.

     On June 29, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, as Modified (the “Plan”). The Bankruptcy Court also approved the Settlement Agreement between the Debtors and the Committee. The Bankruptcy Court further set the enterprise value of the Debtors at $25.3 million for

24


Table of Contents

purposes of distributions of new common stock under the Plan. The effective date of the Plan was set by the Debtors pursuant to the Plan as Friday, July 2, 2004 (the “Effective Date”). The Plan was substantially consummated on July 8, 2004.

     In general, pursuant to the Plan, as of the Effective Date:

  Holders of allowed administrative and priority claims will be paid in cash in the ordinary course as they come due or on such other terms as the parties may agree. Holders of allowed priority tax claims will receive periodic payments as provided under section 1129(a)(9)(C) of the Bankruptcy Code, unless the parties agree to other terms for the payment of such claims.

  Holders of allowed secured claims shall receive, at the election of the Debtors, either (i) payment in cash in an amount equivalent to the full amount of such holder’s allowed secured claim; (ii) deferred cash payments over a period of five (5) years after the initial distribution date totaling the amount of such holder’s allowed secured claim, with interest; (iii) the return of the collateral securing such allowed secured claim in full satisfaction of such claim, or (iv) such other treatment as may be agreed to in writing by such holder and the Company.

  Holders of allowed general unsecured claims will receive their pro rata share of seventy-five percent (75%) of seven million (7,000,000) shares of the new common stock of Minorplanet on or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date.

  Each holder of an allowed convenience claim shall receive cash in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of their allowed claims, up to an aggregate maximum of one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000.00) for all such claims to be paid as soon as practicable following the Effective Date.

  All existing equity interests in the Company were extinguished as of the Effective Date. Each holder of an equity interest in Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc. that is attributable to existing common stock will receive a pro rata share of twenty-five percent (25%) of seven million (7,000,000) shares of the new common stock that is not issued to holders of allowed general unsecured claims. The holders of equity interests in Minorplanet, Limited and Caren, other than common stock, did not receive or retain any property under the Plan.

  The new common stock and the restricted shares were issued and distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan without further act or action under applicable law, regulation, order or rule and are exempt from registration under applicable securities law pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

  The Company initially distributed 7,000,000 shares of new common stock to satisfy holders of allowed general unsecured claims and holders of equity interests in Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc. that were attributable to existing common stock. The initial distribution of 7,000,000 shares of new common stock resulted in the satisfaction of approximately $17.6 million of allowed general unsecured claims. The Company has objected to approximately $1.5 million in general unsecured claims, which if allowed, would result in the issuance of additional shares of new common stock. Although the Company believes that some portion of the general unsecured claims objected to will be ultimately disallowed by the Bankruptcy Court, the Company cannot presently determine with certainty the total amount of claims objected to which will be allowed or disallowed. Additionally, as the Company has rejected certain executory contracts and unexpired leases, the other contracting party is entitled to a prepetition, general unsecured claim for the damages sustained as a result of the “breach of contract” caused by the rejection and must file a rejection proof of claim within 30 days of the Effective Date. The Company cannot predict with certainty the aggregate amount of rejection proof of claims that will be filed and ultimately allowed by the Bankruptcy Court resulting in the issuance of additional new common stock to such rejection claim holders.

  Caren and Limited, as a matter of law, were merged with and into Remote Dynamics, Inc., ceasing to exist as separate entities as of the Effective Date.

  the Company’s certificate of incorporation was amended and restated to change the Company’s corporate name to Remote Dynamics, Inc. on the Effective Date;

  the size of the board was increased to seven (7) directors with four (4) new directors being appointed by the Official Unsecured Creditors’ Committee on behalf of the unsecured creditors and three (3) directors to be appointed by the Debtors;

  a new restricted stock plan for key executive officers was approved;

  the Company entered into two (2) year term employment agreements with the following key executive officers including restricted stock grants to each officer:

  Dennis R. Casey – President and Chief Executive Officer
 
  J. Raymond Bilbao – Senior Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary
 
  W. Michael Smith – Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer & Treasurer

     The Plan received overwhelming acceptance with approximately 98.6% of the existing stockholders actually voting on the Plan, of which approximately 99.9% voted to accept the Plan. Additionally, approximately 75% of the

25


Table of Contents

unsecured creditors, who will receive their prorata share of 75% of the new common stock issued under the Plan, voted to accept the Plan. Under the Plan, holders of the Company’s 13.75% Interest Senior Notes due 2005 and holders of the Company’s common stock as of the close of trading on Friday, July 2, 2004 were entitled to receive their prorata distributions of new common stock under the Plan.

     Pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Company assumed, assumed as modified or rejected certain pre-petition executory contracts and unexpired leases upon the Effective Date. With respect to executory contracts assumed, the Company is required to cure all prepetition defaults, monetary and otherwise in one or more payments over a three-month period after the earlier of the Effective Date or the date the claim is allowed. With respect to executory contracts rejected, the Company is excused from further performance under such agreement and the Bankruptcy Code treats the rejected contract as if it were breached by the Company immediately prior to the Company’s filing of bankruptcy. The other contracting party is entitled to a prepetition, general unsecured claim for the damages sustained as a result of the “breach of contract” caused by the rejection. Under the Plan, rejection proofs of claim must be filed within 30 days of the Effective Date.

Exit Financing

     On June 24, 2004, the Company entered into a Second Amended Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with HFS Minorplanet Funding LLC and other accredited investors which it represents (“HFS”), subject to bankruptcy court approval, for the provision of $1.575 million in exit financing to the Company in accordance with the Committee Settlement. On June 29, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving an exit credit facility to be provided by HFS to the Company in the amount of $1.575 million (the “Exit Financing”). On June 29, 2004, the Company and HFS closed on the Exit Financing. Upon funding, the Company agreed to issue a $1.575 million convertible promissory note to HFS with the principal balance being due 36 months from the date of funding, with an annual interest rate of 12 percent. HFS is required to provide the funding within 21 days of the June 29, 2004 closing. The Company is required to pay 36 monthly-accrued interest-only payments on the principal balance, with the initial interest payment due 30 days from closing. Following the initial year of the note, the Company may elect to repay the loan without premium or penalty. HFS may elect at any time prior to the maturity date of the note to convert all or any part of the principal or accrued interest to common stock.

     The price per share at which the conversion of unpaid principal and accrued interest may occur shall be $3.62 per share of common stock, provided that such amount shall be reduced (i) by 20% percent if such principal and accrued interest is converted within one year after the date the promissory note was issued or (ii) by 15% if such unpaid principal and accrued interest is converted more than one year after the date the promissory note was issued. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Company’s board of directors shall execute any documents or instruments or pass any corporate resolutions necessary to appoint to the board of directors of the Company one additional director designated by HFS (“Additional Designee”) unless such appointment would cause the Company to violate the independent director requirements, based on the written advice of legal counsel, as set forth in the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ Stock Exchange, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “SOX”) and the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the SOX. This Additional Designee shall serve on the Company’s board of directors until the promissory note is repaid in cash or repaid by conversion to common stock. Stephen CuUnjieng, the President of HFS, was employed by the Company as Director of Strategic Finance on January 30, 2004, immediately prior to the filing of the bankruptcy, to assist the Company with further fund raising. Mr. CuUnjieng, is a controlling partner in the HFS Capital Private Equity Fund LLC, a member of HFS.

Next Generation AVL Product & VMI License Right Settlement

     The Company currently believes that it must modify its current automatic vehicle location business model to a recurring revenue model in order to create long-term enterprise value for its stockholders. The Company has further determined that in order to fully exploit the AVL market in the U.S. in a recurring revenue business model, the Company must develop and introduce an AVL product which utilizes GPRS for data transmission along with the AVL software which is hosted by the Company in a service bureau environment allowing customers to access their data via the Internet or dedicated frame relay. The Company further believes that a GPRS-enabled AVL mobile unit will provide substantial savings in wireless transmission costs over the current GSM circuit-switched data VMI unit and will further allow the Company to substantially reduce its customer support and maintenance costs by avoiding costly maintenance visits to customer premises to service the CCC component of the VMI system. In early 2003, the Company requested that Minorplanet UK develop a GPRS-enabled VMI unit and modify the VMI software to be hosted in a web environment. Minorplanet UK initially scheduled delivery of the GPRS-enabled mobile unit and web-hosted software on or before

26


Table of Contents

September 2003. However, Minorplanet UK has been unable to deliver a commercially viable GPRS-enabled mobile unit and web-hosted software and recently announced that it had elected to outsource the development of web-hosted software, which would not be available until mid-2005.

     In conjunction with its development of the next-generation product for the SBC Companies, the Company commenced the internal development a GPRS-enabled mobile unit and web-hosted AVL software during the first calendar quarter of 2004, which can be hosted by the Company using its existing NSC complex with minor modifications and minimal capital expenditures (the “Next Generation Product”). Customers using the Next Generation Product will access their data via the Internet or dedicated frame relay. The Company currently anticipates commercially launching the Next Generation Product by the first calendar quarter of 2005. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to commercially launch the Next Generation Product by the first calendar quarter of 2005, and failure to do so may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

     Accordingly, the Company notified Minorplanet UK that it intended to reject the VMI license as part of its plan of reorganization and initiated negotiations with Minorplanet UK for a temporary use license to market and sell the VMI product until the Company’s Next Generation Product is commercially available to ensure a smooth transition to the Next Generation Product. On June 14, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court approved a Compromise and Settlement Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and among the Debtors and Minorplanet Limited and Minorplanet Systems plc regarding the license agreement for the VMI technology which allows the Debtors to use, market and sell the VMI technology until December 31, 2004. The material terms of the VMI Settlement Agreement include the following:

(1)   On June 30, 2004, the VMI license agreement converted to a nonexclusive license until December 31, 2004 when it shall terminate.
 
(2)   From the period beginning June 30, 2004 through December 31, 2004, the territory in which the Debtors may market, sell and use the VMI system shall be reduced to the following metropolitan areas: Los Angeles, California; Atlanta, Georgia; Dallas, Texas; and Houston, Texas.
 
(3)   On July 31, 2004, the Debtors shall no longer use the name, “Minorplanet,” nor any derivative thereof, and shall remove and refrain from using any references to said name.
 
(4)   The Debtors shall provide Minorplanet Limited, at no cost, 100 AEM 3000 VMI units to USA specifications with accompanying special tariff SIM’s for T-Mobile.
 
(5)   Subsequent to December 31, 2004, the Debtors have the right to use the VMI software internally for the sole purpose of satisfying its warranty, service and support obligations to its existing VMI customer base.
 
(6)   Minorplanet Limited shall be allowed a general unsecured claim in the amount of $1,000,000.00 in Limited’s bankruptcy case no. 04-31202-SAF-11. On the Effective Date, Minorplanet Limited shall release and waive its administrative claim and, as of such date, shall waive any future R&D fees due under Section 16.4 of the VMI license agreement.
 
(7)   The Debtors provided to Minorplanet Limited and Minorplanet Systems plc a general release of any and all claims which could have been asserted against Minorplanet Limited or Minorplanet Systems plc by the Debtors.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended May 31, 2004, Compared to Three Months Ended May 31, 2003

     Total revenue decreased from $10.9 million during the three months ended May 31, 2003 to $5.3 million during the three months ended May 31, 2004 due primarily to a $5.7 million reduction in NSC Systems revenue. NSC Systems service revenues decreased from $7.2 million during the three months ended May 31, 2003 to $3.4 million during the three months ended May 31, 2004 primarily due to the anticipated reduction in the number of NSC Systems network services subscriber units and the related material completion of deferred service revenue recognition associated with the Sale to Aether. The decrease in network services subscriber units from 15,672 at May 31, 2003 to 5,292 as of May 31, 2004 was anticipated after the Sale to Aether as many of these units have converted to either Aether’s network or to other carrier networks. A reduction in repair and maintenance revenues under the Service Vehicle Contract with SBC as well as a 9% decrease in active units under the Service Vehicle Contract also contributed to the overall reduction in NSC Systems service revenue. NSC Systems product revenue, including ratable product revenue, decreased from $2.2 million during the three months ended May 31, 2003 to $0.3 million during the three months ended May 31, 2004 primarily due to the lower ratable product revenue recognition associated with the declining network subscriber unit base. New NSC Systems product sales during the three months ended May 31, 2004 were minimal consisting primarily of part sales under the Service Vehicle Contract.

     VMI revenue remained flat at $1.5 million for the three months ended May 31, 2004 and 2003 respectively. Due to a temporary reduction in sales personnel as management is working to revise the current sales model and the negative perception by potential customers of the Company’s bankruptcy filing, new VMI product sales were minimal during the three months ended May 31, 2004. In accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policies, VMI revenue and the associated cost of sales are deferred and recognized over the contract life. As of May 31, 2004, total VMI deferred product revenue reflected on the Company’s balance sheet, net of amortization, was $7.2 million.

     Total gross profit margin increased to 54% during the three months ended May 31, 2004 in comparison to 42% during the same period of the previous fiscal year. Contributing to the improved margin was a decrease in NSC Systems network subscriber unit ratable gross profit (network subscriber product sales have historically low margins) due to the network subscriber unit churn discussed above. Higher product margins on VMI sales and a decrease in VMI airtime service costs due to cost reduction efforts also contributed to the improved margin.

     During the third fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2004, the Company notified Minorplanet UK that it intended to reject the VMI license as part of the its plan of reorganization and later negotiated the Compromise and Settlement Agreement regarding the license right described above. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”) requires management of the Company to review for impairment of its long-lived assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset might not be recoverable and exceeds its fair value. Thus, management used an expected present value technique, in which multiple cash flow scenarios that reflect the range of possible outcomes and a risk-free rate are used, to estimate the fair value of the VMI license right at $2.8 million as of May 31, 2004. The Company recognized an impairment loss of $28.8 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2004.

     Excluding the impairment loss and reorganization expenses, total operating expenses decreased to $4.0 million during the three months ended May 31, 2004 from $7.3 million during the three months ended May 31, 2003. During the same respective periods, sales and marketing costs decreased from $2.2 million to $0.3 million primarily due to a temporary reduction in sales and marketing personnel, and related operating costs, and a reduction in non-executive consulting fees incurred under the addendum to the exclusive license and distribution agreement with Minorplanet Limited. General and administrative expenses decreased from $2.1 million during the three months ended May 31, 2003 to $1.6 million during the three months ended May 31, 2004 primarily due to personnel reductions, a decrease in professional fees (non-reorganization items), and a decrease in other expenses associated with cost-cutting efforts. Customer service expenses decreased to $0.4 million during the three months ended May 31, 2004 from $1.1 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to staffing reductions and other cost-cutting efforts.

     Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $1.1 million during the three months ended May 31, 2004 from $1.4 million during the same period in the prior year primarily due to several network service center assets becoming fully depreciated.

Table of Contents

     Excluding the $28.8 million impairment loss and reorganization items, operating losses improved to $1.1 million during the three months ended May 31, 2004 from $2.7 million during the three months ended May 31, 2003. A $1.7 million reduction in gross profit margin, primarily due to the decrease in NSC Systems revenue discussed above, was offset by a $3.3 million decrease in operating expenses, excluding the impairment loss. The Company’s NSC Systems segment reported operating income of $0.6 million for the three months ended May 31, 2004. The VMI segment reported an operating loss of $30.5 million for the same period. Excluding the impairment loss, the VMI segment operating loss was $1.7 million for the three months ended May 31, 2004.

     The Company recorded $1.8 million in reorganization expenses associated with its Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing during the three months ended May 31, 2004, including $0.8 million in professional fees and a $0.9 million provision for probable losses related to the rejection of executory contracts, unexpired leases, and other claims. The Company’s net loss before reorganization items for the three months ended May 31, 2004 was $29.8 million. Excluding the impairment loss, the Company’s net loss before reorganization items improved to $1.0 million during the three months ended May 31, 2004 from $3.2 million during the same period of the previous fiscal year.

Nine Months Ended May 31, 2004, Compared to Nine Months Ended May 31, 2003

     Total revenue for the nine months ended May 31, 2004 decreased to $18.1 million from $36.6 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2003. NSC Systems revenue decreased from $32.9 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2003 to $13.2 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 primarily due to a reduction in active network subscriber units from 15,672 at May 31, 2004 to 5,292 at May 31, 2003 and the related material completion of deferred service revenue recognition associated with the Sale to Aether. This decrease in network services subscriber units was anticipated after the Sale to Aether as many of these units have converted to either Aether’s network or to other carrier networks. NSC Systems service revenue of $12.2 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 was down from $25.8 million during the same period of the previous fiscal year while NSC Systems product revenue, including ratable product revenue, decreased from $7.2 million to $1.1 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively. New NSC Systems product sales during fiscal year 2004 have been minimal consisting primarily of parts sales under the Service Vehicle Contract.

     VMI revenue for the nine months ended May 31, 2004 was $4.8 million up from $3.6 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year. Total unit sales decreased to approximately 1,400 units during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 from approximately 4,300 units sold during the same period of the previous fiscal year due primarily to a temporary reduction in sales personnel as management works to revise the current sales model and the negative perception by potential customers of the Company’s bankruptcy filing. In accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policies, VMI revenue and the associated cost of sales are deferred and recognized over the contract life. Thus, the increase in VMI revenue during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 in comparison to the same period of the previous fiscal year is primarily due to the ratable recognition of previously deferred revenue associated with the VMI installed base.

     Total gross profit margin improved to 48% during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 from 42% during the same period of the previous fiscal year. Contributing to the improvement in margin was a decrease in NSC Systems network subscriber unit ratable gross profit (network subscriber product sales have historically low margins) due to the network subscriber unit churn discussed above. Also contributing were higher margins on VMI product sales and part sales under the Service Vehicle Contract, and a decrease in VMI airtime service costs due to cost reduction efforts and credits obtained from airtime providers.

     On September 26, 2002, the Company entered into a letter addendum to the exclusive license and distribution agreement with Minorplanet Limited, the operating subsidiary of Minorplanet UK, to provide executive and non-executive sales and marketing consulting services for the six-month period from August 23, 2002 to February 22, 2003. Under terms of the agreement, the Company was not required to pay the executive consulting fees incurred during this six-month period totaling $1.76 million unless and until the Company filed a Form 10-K reporting net income and positive cash flow for the previous 12-month period. As of August 31, 2003 a liability for the $1.76 million in executive consulting fees, payable to Minorplanet Limited, was included on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets under “Other non-current liabilities.” On October 6, 2003, Minorplanet UK forever waived and discharged the $1.76 million executive consulting fees owed by the Company. Thus, the $1.76 million liability was reversed and effectively converted to a capital contribution by Minorplanet UK to the Company. In addition, a $0.3 million liability payable to Minorplanet Limited for non-executive consulting costs was converted to a capital contribution during the nine months ended May 31, 2004. The offsetting credits have been reflected in additional paid-in capital on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

     Excluding reorganization expenses and the impairment loss on the VMI license right discussed above, total operating expenses decreased from $26.0 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2003 to $13.8 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2004. Sales and marketing costs decreased by $8.0 million during the same periods respectively primarily due to a $2.6 million decrease in executive and non-executive consulting fees incurred under the addendum to the exclusive license and distribution agreement with Minorplanet Limited and the temporary reduction in sales and marketing personnel, and related operating costs. General and administrative expenses decreased from $7.1 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2003 to $5.3 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 primarily due to personnel reductions, a decrease in professional fees (non-reorganization items) and other expenses due to cost-cutting efforts, and a reversal of property tax accruals. During the nine months ended May 31, 2004, the Company reversed property tax accruals of approximately $0.3 million in order to properly reflect the Company’s liability due to recent changes in Texas property tax laws. Customer service expenses decreased to $1.8 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 from $3.1 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to staffing reductions and other cost-cutting efforts. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $3.3 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 from $4.3 million during the same period in the prior year primarily due to several network service center assets becoming fully depreciated.

     Excluding the impairment loss on the VMI license right and reorganization items, operating losses improved to $5.0 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 from $10.6 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The Company’s NSC Systems segment reported operating income of $2.9 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2004. The VMI segment reported an operating loss of $36.7 million for the same period. Excluding the $28.8 million impairment loss, the VMI segment operating loss was $7.9 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2004.

     Other income and expense for the nine months ended May 31, 2004 included income of $0.4 million associated with the reversal of an accrual for a commitment by the Company to modify certain previously sold circuit boards. The Company has determined that such modifications will not be required. The Company recorded $2.2 million in reorganization expenses associated with its Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing during the nine months ended May 31, 2004, including $1.2 million in professional fees and a $0.9 million provision for probable losses related to the rejection of executory contracts, unexpired leases and other claims. The Company’s net loss before reorganization items for the nine months ended May 31, 2004 was $34.1 million. Excluding the impairment loss, the Company’s net loss before reorganization items improved to $5.3 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 from $12.1 million during the same period of the previous fiscal year.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

     The preparation of 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. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

     The significant accounting policies and estimates, which are believed to be the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating reported financial results, are stated in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the year ended August 31, 2003.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company has incurred significant operating losses since inception and has limited financial resources to support itself until such time that it is able to generate positive cash flow from operations. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3.3 million as of May 31, 2004, which included $0.5 million in cash held in escrow accounts on behalf of the Company by third parties providing professional services for the Company during the ongoing bankruptcy proceedings. The Bankruptcy Court has not yet approved payment for such professional services.

     Net cash used in operating activities, before reorganization items, was $9.0 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 and was primarily attributable to the ongoing VMI operations. Interest paid on senior notes during the nine months ended May 31, 2004 was $1.0 million.

     On February 2, 2004, the Company filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in order to facilitate the restructuring of the Company’s debt, trade liabilities, and other obligations. On June 29, 2004, the United States Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Company’s plan of reorganization. At the time of the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company has estimated that its total cash outlay associated with pre-petition liability cure costs for accepted executory contracts, payment on allowed convenience claims and allowed priority tax claims in accordance with the plan of reorganization and payments for professional fees related to the reorganization to be approximately $4.0 million, of which approximately $0.3 million will represent a long-term payable for allowed priority tax claims.

     On June 24, 2004, the Company entered into a Second Amended Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with HFS Minorplanet Funding LLC and other accredited investors which its represents (“HFS”), subject to bankruptcy court approval, for the provision of $1.575 million in exit financing to the Company in accordance with the Committee Settlement. On June 29, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving an exit credit facility to be provided by HFS to the Company in the amount of $1.575 million (the “Exit Financing”). On June 29, 2004, the Company and HFS closed on the Exit Financing. Upon funding, the Company agreed to issue a $1.575 million convertible promissory note to HFS with the principal balance being due 36 months from the date of funding, with an annual interest rate of 12 percent. HFS is required to provide the funding within 21 days of the June 29, 2004 closing. The Company is required to pay 36 monthly-accrued interest-only payments on the principal balance, with the initial interest payment due 30 days from funding. Following the initial year of the note, the Company may elect to repay the loan without premium or penalty. HFS may elect at any time prior to the maturity date of the note to convert all or any part of the principal or accrued interest to common stock.

     The price per share at which the conversion of unpaid principal and accrued interest may occur shall be $3.62 per share of common stock, provided that such amount shall be reduced (i) by 20% percent if such principal and accrued interest is converted within one year after the date the promissory note was issued or (ii) by 15% if such unpaid principal and accrued interest is converted more than one year after the date the promissory note was issued. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Company’s board of directors shall execute any documents or instruments or pass any corporate resolutions necessary to appoint to the board of directors of the Company one additional director designated by HFS (“Additional Designee”) unless such appointment would cause the Company to violate the independent director requirements, based on the written advice of legal counsel, as set forth in the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ Stock Exchange, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “SOX”) and the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the SOX. This Additional Designee shall serve on the Company’s board of directors until the promissory note is repaid in cash or repaid by conversion to common stock. Stephen CuUnjieng, the President of HFS, was employed by the Company as Director of Strategic Finance on January 30, 2004, immediately prior to the filing of the bankruptcy, to assist the Company with further fund raising. Mr. CuUnjieng, is a controlling partner in the HFS Capital Private Equity Fund LLC, a member of HFS.

     The Company believes that the potential market opportunity for the AVL products such as the Next Generation Product line in the United States is significant. The Company believes that there are approximately 20 million private (not “for hire”) commercial vehicles in the United States, the majority of which are service or metro vehicles, and that this market is approximately five percent penetrated. The Company anticipates that over the next few years, companies will become increasingly aware of the very substantial benefits that global positioning and vehicle telematics systems can bring to their fleet operations and such systems will become standard in commercial fleets, both large and small. Currently, competition in this market segment is fragmented, and no clear market leader exists. The Company believes it will be positioned with its telematics product lines and proven operations support to take advantage of the significant market potential. In addition, the Company has renewed its service vehicle contract with SBC (the “Service Vehicle Contract”) for an additional term that ends on January 30, 2005. Also, as a result of the sale to Aether of certain assets and licenses related to the Company’s long-haul trucking and asset-tracking businesses, Aether is contractually obligated to continue to reimburse the Company for the network and airtime service costs related to providing service for HighwayMaster Series 5000 (“Series 5000”) units as long as such units remain active on the Company’s network. On July 8, 2003, the Company and Aether extended the transition period during which such Series 5000 units remain active on the Company’s network until January 30, 2005. On July 7, 2004, the Company and Aether further amended their transition services agreement to extend the transition services term through April 30, 2005 with such transition services term continuing thereafter on a month-to-month basis unless terminated by either party on sixty (60) days prior written notice.

Critical success factors in management’s plans to achieve positive cash flow from operations include:

  Ability to raise additional capital resources.

  Ability to complete development of GPRS-based Next Generation Product line.

  Renewal of the Service Vehicle Contract and entering into a new agreement with SBC to upgrade their fleets to the Next Generation Product line.

  Significant market acceptance of the Company’s product offerings, including the Next Generation Product line, in the United States.

  Maintain and expand the Company’s direct sales channel and expand into new markets not currently served by the Company. New salespersons will require training and time to become productive. In addition, there is significant competition for qualified salespersons, and the Company must continue to offer attractive compensation plans and opportunities to attract qualified salespersons.

  Maintain and expand indirect distribution channels.

  Secure and maintain adequate third party leasing sources for customers who purchase the Company’s products.

     There can be no assurances that any of these success factors will be realized or maintained. Although the Company believes it has exited the Chapter 11 process as a stronger and more financially viable entity, at this time it is not possible to accurately predict the effect of the bankruptcy filing on the Company’s business or what the disposition will be of all claims against the Company. It is possible that because of operating performance or other factors, the Company may not be able to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the Company urges that extreme caution be exercised with respect to existing and future investments in any of the Company’s securities. The Company’s future results depend on the timely and successful implementation of its plan of reorganization.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     The Company does not have any material exposure to market risk associated with its cash and cash equivalents.

Forward Looking Statements

     This report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are based upon management’s current beliefs and projections, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to management. When used in this Form 10-Q, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Any statement or conclusion concerning future events is a forward-looking statement, and should not be interpreted as a promise or conclusion that the event will occur. The Company’s actual operating results or the actual occurrence of any such event could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed in this report, and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2003.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

     The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, which it has designed to ensure that material information related to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the Company’s disclosure committee on a regular basis. The Company has a disclosure committee, which consists of certain members of the Company’s senior management.

     Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures was performed as of May 31, 2004. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported by management of the Company on a timely basis in order to comply with the Company’s public disclosure obligations under the relevant federal securities laws and the SEC rules promulgated thereunder.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Voluntary Bankruptcy Filing

     On February 2, 2004, (the “Commencement Date”), Remote Dynamics, Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc. (“Minorplanet” or the “Company”), and two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Caren (292) Limited (“Caren”) and Minorplanet Systems USA Limited (“Limited”) (Minorplanet, Caren and Limited shall hereinafter collectively be referred to as the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas Dallas Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”), in order to facilitate the restructuring of their debt, trade liabilities, and other obligations. During the pendency of the bankruptcy, the Debtors remained in possession of their assets and operated as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of Bankruptcy Code, the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and applicable court orders. On February 24, 2004, the United States Trustee appointed an official committee of unsecured creditors (the “Committee”) consisting of representatives of five (5) of the twenty (20) largest unsecured creditors.

     Under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, the filing of the bankruptcy petition automatically stayed most actions against the Company including most actions to collect pre-petition indebtedness or exercise control over the property of the Company’s estate. The Bankruptcy Court established April 9, 2004 as the bar date for creditors and other parties-in-interest (other than governmental entities) to file their proofs of claims and proofs of interest. The bar date for governmental entities to file their proofs of claims and proofs of interest was May 10, 2004. The aggregate amount of all pre-petition claims is not known at this time since the claims are still being reviewed and certain contract rejection proofs of claim may still be filed up to 30 days after the Effective Date of the Plan. Holders of pre-petition claims must seek recovery through the Company’s Plan.

     On June 15, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Company’s motion for substantive consolidation of the estates of Minorplanet, Caren and Limited.

     On May 24, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Debtors’ Second Amended Disclosure Statement (“Disclosure Statement”) for use to solicit the vote of creditors and equity interest holders on the acceptance or rejection of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization. The Bankruptcy Court also set the record date for purposes of voting on the Debtor’s plan of reorganization as May 21, 2004, approved solicitation/voting procedures of the plan of reorganization, and set hearing on the confirmation of the plan of reorganization for 1:30 p.m., June 28, 2004.

     On June 17, 2004, the Company and the Committee reached a settlement agreement on several matters regarding the Plan subject to bankruptcy court approval (the “Committee Settlement”). The material terms of the Committee Settlement were as follows:

  For purposes of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization, the Debtors and Committee agreed that the value of the Debtors shall be equal to $25.3 million, such that holders of allowed unsecured claims under the Plan shall receive 75%, and prior equity holders shall receive 25%, of the 7,000,000 shares of new common stock issued upon confirmation of the Plan.

  The Debtors and the Committee reached agreement on the composition of the Board of Directors of the Debtors upon emergence from bankruptcy;

  The Debtors and the Committee reached agreement on the general terms and conditions of new employment agreements for senior management of the Debtors.

  The Debtors and the Committee reached agreement on the general terms and conditions under which restricted shares would be issued to senior management of the Debtors.

  The Debtors, HFS Minorplanet Funding LLC (“HFS”) and the Committee agreed to amend the April 15, 2004 letter agreement so that the price per share at which HFS may convert the unpaid principal and accrued interest

    due under the $1.575 million promissory note into common stock of the Company, shall be set at $3.62 per share of common stock, provided that such amount shall be reduced (i) by twenty percent (20%) if such unpaid principal and accrued interest is converted within one (1) year after the date the promissory note was issued or (ii) by fifteen percent (15%) if such unpaid principal and accrued interest is converted more than one (1) year after the date the promissory note was issued.

     The Committee further agreed that it would not object to, and both the Committee and the Debtors, using their best efforts, would affirmatively support approval of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization, settlement and confirmation of the Debtors’ plan of reorganization, in the form as modified by the terms hereof. On June 22, 2004, the Debtors filed their Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) to incorporate the settlement terms reached with the Committee.

     On June 29, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, as Modified (the “Plan”). The Bankruptcy Court also approved the Settlement Agreement between the Debtors and the Committee. The Bankruptcy Court further set the enterprise value of the Debtors at $25.3 million for purposes of distributions of new common stock under the Plan. The effective date of the Plan was set by the Debtors pursuant to the Plan as Friday, July 2, 2004 (the “Effective Date”). The Plan was substantially consummated on July 8, 2004.

     In general, pursuant to the Plan, as of the Effective Date:

  Holders of allowed administrative and priority claims will be paid in cash in the ordinary course as they come due or on such other terms as the parties may agree. Holders of allowed priority tax claims will receive periodic payments as provided under section 1129(a)(9)(C) of the Bankruptcy Code, unless the parties agree to other terms for the payment of such claims.

  Holders of allowed secured claims shall receive, at the election of the Debtors, either (i) payment in cash in an amount equivalent to the full amount of such holder’s allowed secured claim; (ii) deferred cash payments over a period of five (5) years after the initial distribution date totaling the amount of such holder’s allowed secured claim, with interest; (iii) the return of the collateral securing such allowed secured claim in full satisfaction of such claim, or (iv) such other treatment as may be agreed to in writing by such holder and the Company.

  Holders of allowed general unsecured claims will receive their pro rata share of seventy-five percent (75%) of seven million (7,000,000) shares of the new common stock of Minorplanet on or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date.

  Each holder of an allowed convenience claim shall receive cash in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of their allowed claims, up to an aggregate maximum of one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000.00) for all such claims to be paid as soon as practicable following the Effective Date.

  All existing equity interests in the Company were extinguished as of the Effective Date. Each holder of an equity interest in Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc. that is attributable to existing common stock will receive a pro rata share of twenty-five percent (25%) of seven million (7,000,000) shares of the new common stock that is not issued to holders of allowed general unsecured claims. The holders of equity interests in Minorplanet, Limited and Caren, other than common stock, did not receive or retain any property under the Plan.

  The new common stock and the restricted shares were issued and distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan without further act or action under applicable law, regulation, order or rule and are exempt from registration under applicable securities law pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

  The Company initially distributed 7,000,000 shares of new common stock to satisfy holders of allowed general unsecured claims and holders of equity interests in Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc. that were attributable to existing common stock. The initial distribution of 7,000,000 shares of new common stock resulted in the satisfaction of approximately $17.6 million of allowed general unsecured claims. The Company has objected to approximately $1.5 million in general unsecured claims, which if allowed, would result in the issuance of additional shares of new common stock. Although the Company believes that some portion of the general unsecured claims objected to will be ultimately disallowed by the Bankruptcy Court, the Company cannot presently determine with certainty the total amount of claims objected to which will be allowed or disallowed. Additionally, as the Company has rejected certain executory contracts and unexpired leases, the other contracting party is entitled to a prepetition, general unsecured claim for the damages sustained as a result of the “breach of contract” caused by the rejection and must file a rejection proof of claim within 30 days of the Effective Date. The Company cannot predict with certainty the aggregate amount of rejection proof of claims that will be filed and ultimately allowed by the Bankruptcy Court resulting in the issuance of additional new common stock to such rejection claim holders.

  Caren and Limited, as a matter of law, were merged with and into Remote Dynamics, Inc., ceasing to exist as separate entities as of the Effective Date.

  the Company’s certificate of incorporation was amended and restated to change the Company’s corporate name to Remote Dynamics, Inc. on the Effective Date;

34


Table of Contents

  the size of the board was increased to seven (7) directors with four (4) new directors being appointed by the Official Unsecured Creditors’ Committee on behalf of the unsecured creditors and three (3) directors to be appointed by the Debtors;

  a new restricted stock plan for key executive officers was approved;

  the Company entered into two (2) year term employment agreements with the following key executive officers including restricted stock grants to each officer:

  Dennis R. Casey – President and Chief Executive Officer
 
  J. Raymond Bilbao – Senior Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary
 
  W. Michael Smith – Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer & Treasurer

     The Plan received overwhelming acceptance with approximately 98.6% of the existing stockholders actually voting on the Plan, of which approximately 99.9% voted to accept the Plan. Additionally, approximately 75% of the unsecured creditors, who will receive their prorata share of 75% of the new common stock issued under the Plan, voted to accept the Plan. Under the Plan, holders of the Company’s 13.75% Interest Senior Notes due 2005 and holders of the Company’s common stock as of the close of trading on Friday, July 2, 2004 were entitled to receive their prorata distributions of new common stock under the Plan.

     Pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Company assumed, assumed as modified or rejected certain pre-petition executory contracts and unexpired leases upon the Effective Date. With respect to executory contracts assumed, the Company is required to cure all prepetition defaults, monetary and otherwise in one or more payments over a three-month period after the earlier of the Effective Date or the date the claim is allowed. With respect to executory contracts rejected, the Company is excused from further performance under such agreement and the Bankruptcy Code treats the rejected contract as if it were breached by the Company immediately prior to the Company’s filing of bankruptcy. The other contracting party is entitled to a prepetition, general unsecured claim for the damages sustained as a result of the “breach of contract” caused by the rejection. Under the Plan, rejection proofs of claim must be filed within 30 days of the Effective Date.

Exit Financing

     On June 24, 2004, the Company entered into a Second Amended Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with HFS Minorplanet Funding LLC and other accredited investors which it represents (“HFS”), subject to bankruptcy court approval, for the provision of $1.575 million in exit financing to the Company in accordance with the Committee Settlement. On June 29, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving an exit credit facility to be provided by HFS to the Company in the amount of $1.575 million (the “Exit Financing”). On June 29, 2004, the Company and HFS closed on the Exit Financing. Upon funding, the Company agreed to issue a $1.575 million convertible promissory note to HFS with the principal balance being due 36 months from the date of funding, with an annual interest rate of 12 percent. HFS is required to provide the funding within 21 days of the June 29, 2004 closing. The Company is required to pay 36 monthly-accrued interest-only payments on the principal balance, with the initial interest payment due 30 days from funding. Following the initial year of the note, the Company may elect to repay the loan without premium or penalty. HFS may elect at any time prior to the maturity date of the note to convert all or any part of the principal or accrued interest to common stock.

     The price per share at which the conversion of unpaid principal and accrued interest may occur shall be $3.62 per share of common stock, provided that such amount shall be reduced (i) by 20% percent if such principal and accrued interest is converted within one year after the date the promissory note was issued or (ii) by 15% if such unpaid principal and accrued interest is converted more than one year after the date the promissory note was issued. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Company’s board of directors shall execute any documents or instruments or pass any corporate resolutions necessary to appoint to the board of directors of the Company one additional director designated by HFS (“Additional Designee”) unless such appointment would cause the Company to violate the independent director requirements, based on the written advice of legal counsel, as set forth in the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ Stock Exchange, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “SOX”) and the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the SOX. This Additional Designee shall serve on the Company’s board of directors until the promissory note is repaid in cash or repaid by conversion to common stock. Stephen CuUnjieng, the President of HFS, was employed by the Company as Director of Strategic Finance on January 30, 2004, immediately prior to the filing of the bankruptcy, to assist the Company with further fund raising. Mr. CuUnjieng, is a controlling partner in the HFS Capital Private Equity Fund LLC, a member of HFS.

ITEM 2: CHANGES IN SECURITIES, USE OF PROCEEDS AND ISSUER PURCHASE OF SECURITIES

Cancellation of Existing Equity and Issuance of New Common Stock under Plan

     On June 29, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, as Modified (the “Plan”). The Bankruptcy Court also approved the Settlement Agreement between the Debtors and the Committee. The Bankruptcy Court further set the enterprise value of the Debtors at $25.3 million for purposes of distributions of new common stock under the Plan. The effective date of the Plan was set by the Debtors pursuant to the Plan as Friday, July 2, 2004 (the “Effective Date”). The Plan was substantially consummated on July 8.

Under the Plan,

  Holders of allowed general unsecured claims will receive their pro rata share of seventy-five percent (75%) of seven million (7,000,000) shares of the new common stock of Minorplanet on or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date;

  All existing equity interests in the Company were extinguished as of the Effective Date. Each holder of an equity interest in Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc. that is attributable to existing common stock will receive a pro rata share of twenty-five percent (25%) of seven million (7,000,000) shares of the new common stock that is not issued to holders of allowed general unsecured claims. The holders of equity interests in Minorplanet Limited and Caren, other then common stock, will not receive or retain any property under the Plan.

  The following senior executives of the Company, as part of new employment contracts, received restricted stock grants pursuant to the 2004 Remote Dynamics Management Incentive Plan approved as part of the Plan:

  Dennis R. Casey – President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Casey received 150,000 shares of restricted stock which vest upon achievement of certain performance objectives.
 
  J. Raymond Bilbao – Senior Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary. Mr. Bilbao received 100,000 shares of restricted stock which vest upon achievement of certain performance objectives
 
  W. Michael Smith – Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer & Treasurer. Mr. Smith received 100,000 shares of restricted stock which vest upon achievement of certain performance objectives.

  The new common stock and the restricted shares were issued and distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan without further act or action under applicable law, regulation, order or rule and are exempt from registration under applicable securities law pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

  The Company initially distributed 7,000,000 shares of new common stock to satisfy holders of allowed general unsecured claims and holders of equity interests in Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc. that were attributable to existing common stock. The initial distribution of 7,000,000 shares of new common stock resulted in the satisfaction of approximately $17.6 million of allowed general unsecured claims. The Company has objected to approximately $1.5 million in general unsecured claims, which if allowed, would result in the issuance of additional shares of new common stock. Although the Company believes that some portion of the general unsecured claims objected to will be ultimately disallowed by the Bankruptcy Court, the Company cannot presently determine with certainty the total amount of claims objected to which will be allowed or disallowed. Additionally, as the Company has rejected certain executory contracts and unexpired leases, the other contracting party is entitled to a prepetition, general unsecured claim for the damages sustained as a result of the “breach of contract” caused by the rejection and must file a rejection proof of claim within 30 days of the Effective Date. The Company cannot predict with certainty the aggregate amount of rejection proof of claims that will be filed and ultimately allowed by the Bankruptcy Court resulting in the issuance of additional new common stock to such rejection claim holders.

Repurchase of Shares Held by Erin Mills Investment Corporation

     In connection with the Minorplanet UK share transfer to Erin Mills, the Company obtained an option to repurchase from Erin Mills up to 3.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.05 for every 1,000 shares, pursuant to that certain Stock Repurchase Option Agreement between the Company and Erin Mills dated August 15, 2003. Gerry Quinn, the president of Erin Mills, currently serves on the Company’s board of directors. On July 1, 2004, prior to the extinguishment of the Company’s existing common stock in accordance with the Plan, the Company repurchased the 3.9 million shares of common stock from Erin Mills for a nominal sum.

Following the initial year of the note, the Company may elect to repay the loan without premium or penalty. HFS may elect at any time prior to the maturity date of the note to convert all or any part of the principal or accrued interest to common stock.

     The price per share at which the conversion of unpaid principal and accrued interest may occur shall be $3.62 per share of common stock, provided that such amount shall be reduced (i) by 20% percent if such principal and accrued interest is converted within one year after the date the promissory note was issued or (ii) by 15% if such unpaid principal and accrued interest is converted more than one year after the date the promissory note was issued. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Company’s board of directors shall execute any documents or instruments or pass any corporate resolutions necessary to appoint to the board of directors of the Company one additional director designated by HFS (“Additional Designee”) unless such appointment would cause the Company to violate the independent director requirements, based on the written advice of legal counsel, as set forth in the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “SOX”) and the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the SOX. This Additional Designee shall serve on the Company’s board of directors until the promissory note is repaid in cash or repaid by conversion to common stock.

Mr. CuUnjieng, is a controlling partner in the HFS Capital Private Equity Fund LLC, a member of HFS.

Valuation (the “Valuation Motion”), and (f) the other pleadings and filings in these cases, and after receiving evidence and hearing arguments of counsel at the confirmation hearing on the Plan and the hearing on the Settlement Motion held on June 28, 2004, makes the following findings of fact and conclusions of law:

     A. Jurisdiction; Core Proceeding; Venue. This matter is a core proceeding, over which this Court has jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157(b)(2)(L) and 1334(a). Venue of these proceedings is proper under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.

     B. Judicial Notice. Judicial notice is hereby taken of the docket of these Cases, including, without limitation, all pleadings, claims and other documents filed, all orders entered, and the transcripts of, and all evidence and arguments made, proffered or adduced at, the hearings held before the Court during the pendency of these Cases.

     C. Disclosure Statement Order. On May 24, 2004, the Court entered an Order (i) Approving Debtors’ Second Amended Disclosure Statement Regarding Debtors’ Second Amended Joint Plan Of Reorganization, (ii) Setting Hearing To Consider Confirmation Of The Debtors’ Second Amended Plan, and (iii) Establishing Deadline For Filing Objections Thereto (the “Disclosure Statement Order”) (Docket #189).

     D. Voting Procedures Order.

     E. Solicitation. The Debtors transmitted the Disclosure Statement, the Second Amended Plan, the Ballots or Non-Voting Notices, the Disclosure Statement Order, notice of the confirmation hearing, the Voting Procedures Order, and solicitation letters approved by the Court (collectively, the “Solicitation Packages”) in accordance with Bankruptcy Rule 3017(d).

     F. Balloting. The Debtors filed the Certification of Balloting Agent with Respect to Votes on the Debtors’ Plan (the “Balloting Affidavit”), attesting and certifying the results of the ballot tabulation for classes of Claims and Interests entitled to vote on the Plan. Votes for acceptance or rejection of the Plan were solicited in good faith and in compliance with Bankruptcy Code sections 1125 and 1126, Bankruptcy Rules 3017 and 3018, the Disclosure Statement, the order approving the Disclosure Statement, other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, and all other applicable rules, laws and regulations.

     G. Substantive Consolidation. On June 17, 2004, the Court entered an Order substantively consolidating the estates of the Debtors.

     H. The Plan. The Plan calls for equity in Reorganized Minorplanet to be issued to the Holders of Allowed Class 3 Claims and Allowed Class 5 Interests, depending on the going concern value of the Debtors. On May 28, 2004, the Debtors filed their Valuation Motion. Notice of the Valuation Motion was adequate and appropriate under the circumstances.

     I. Evidence Regarding the Debtors’ New Business Plan. The Debtors’ Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. W. Michael Smith, testified regarding the Debtors’ historical business model, in which (i) Minorplanet developed and implemented mobile communications solutions for service vehicle fleets, long-haul truck fleets, and other mobile-asset fleets, including integrated voice, data and position location services, and (ii) Limited marketed and sold the Vehicle Management Information (“VMI”) product in the automatic vehicle location (“AVL”) market in the United States. He testified that the VMI product is designed to maximize the productivity of a mobile workforce as well as reduce vehicle mileage and fuel-related expenses. Mr. Smith further testified that, under the Plan, the Debtors are modifying their current AVL business model to a recurring revenue model in order to create long term enterprise value for its shareholders, and that the Debtors are developing and introducing an AVL product which utilizes general packet radio service for data transmission along with the AVL software.

     J. Evidence Regarding Feasibility. The Debtors, with this Court’s approval, retained FTI Consultants, Inc. (“FTI”), which is a nationally recognized organization providing financial advisory and restructuring services to its clients, and has served, or is serving, as consultants and financial advisors to debtors and creditors in numerous chapter 11 cases. Mr. Charles Carroll of FTI testified regarding FTI’s role in assisting the Debtors in formulating their new business plan. Mr. Carroll testified that, subject to the assumptions and risk factors set forth in the Plan, he believed that the Debtors’ new business plan embodied in the Plan appeared feasible. Likewise, Mr. Smith testified that the Debtors’ business model under the Debtors’ new business plan is changed from a sales model to a recurring revenue model.

     K. Evidence Regarding Liquidation Analysis. Mr. Vince Kickirillo of FTI also testified regarding the liquidation value of the Debtors, which analysis (the “Liquidation Analysis”) was set forth in the Disclosure Statement. Mr. Kickirillo is a Certified Financial Analyst, an Accredited Valuation Analyst and has testified and prepared reports numerous times

Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law and Order Confirming Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization and Approving Settlement of Debtors’ Amended Motion for Valuation – Page 3 of 23

 


 

regarding valuation issues. Mr. Kickirillo testified that the Liquidation Analysis reflected (i) the projected outcome of the hypothetical, orderly liquidation of the Debtors under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) that the projected proceeds from the orderly liquidation of the Debtors’ assets would be sufficient to satisfy Administrative Claims and Priority Claims in full, but would fall far short of satisfying General Unsecured Claims, and (iii) a liquidation value that is substantially lower than the value that may be realized by creditors through the Plan. Mr. Kickirillo concluded that it was appropriate for the Debtors to believe that the Plan, which provides for the continuation of the Debtors’ business, provides a substantially greater return to Holders of Claims and Interests than would liquidation.

     L. Evidence Regarding Initial Valuation. In the Valuation Motion, the Debtors originally sought a determination that the going concern value was equal to approximately $36.1 million, based on a written valuation report prepared by FTI. Mr. Kickirillo of FTI testified that FTI undertook an extensive analysis to assess the value of the Debtors, and that FTI employed the “going-concern” method for valuation based on a fundamental change in the structure of the Debtors’ business from a “sales” model to a “recurring-revenue” model. Mr. Kickirillo testified that, based on the assumptions and conditions set forth in FTI’s written valuation report, which was submitted as an exhibit at the Confirmation Hearing, FTI had concluded that, using a discount rate of 27% and a market multiple of 7x, the value of the Debtors was equal to approximately $36.1 million.

     M. Evidence Regarding Settlement. Mr. Smith testified regarding the negotiations between the Debtors and the Committee on the valuation of the Debtors. He testified that the Debtors met numerous times with the Committee as part of an effort to reach agreement on the terms and conditions of a consensual plan of reorganization, and that the parties had in fact reached such an agreement that is reflected and described in the Settlement Motion (the “Settlement”). Mr. Smith testified that, while the Debtors and FTI were highly confident in the methodology, projections and conclusions in the Debtors’ business plan and FTI’s valuation report, the Debtors’ going concern value would be reduced based on a number of factors, including (i) the costs of litigating the Debtors’ valuation and potential objections to confirmation, (ii) the ability of the Debtors to access their proposed exit financing, which depended on the Debtors’ financial condition at the time of emergence from chapter 11 as well as the Debtors’ ability to overcome the Committee’s objection to the conversion features of the financing, (iii) any delay in emerging from chapter 11, which directly affects the Debtors’ ability to operate in a competitive marketplace and, therefore, their ability to execute on their new business plan in a timely and efficient manner, and (iv) the ability of the Debtors to continue to have their stock listed on Nasdaq, which has advised the Debtors that such listing would likely be discontinued if the Debtors did not emerge from chapter by the end of June or early July.

     Mr. Kickirillo of FTI concurred with Mr. Smith’s testimony that any of the listed matters would adversely affect the going concern value of the Debtors. He further testified that raising the discount rate by only 3% to 30%, and lowering the market multiple by only 1x to 6x, would result in a going concern value of approximately $25 million instead of $36.1 million.

     Mr. Smith also testified regarding the other matters covered by the Settlement, including the resolution of the Committee’s objection to the proposed exit financing, the composition of Reorganized Minorplanet’s new board of directors, the compensation arrangements for

Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law and Order Confirming Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization and Approving Settlement of Debtors’ Amended Motion for Valuation – Page 4 of 23

 


 

Reorganized Minorplanet’s management, the release of the Committee, and certain other amendments to the Plan.

     The Court finds, based on the testimony of Mr. Smith and Mr. Kickirillo, that it was reasonable and appropriate for the Debtors to agree with the Committee on a valuation of the Debtors equal to $25.333 million, such that Holders of Allowed Class 3 Claims under the Plan shall receive 75%, and Holders of Allowed Class 5 Interests shall receive 25%, of the 7,000,000 shares of New Common Stock issued following confirmation of the Plan. The Court further finds that the Settlement represents an arms’-length resolution of disputed issues, was entered into in good faith, and in light of the complexity of the issues resolved by the Settlement and the expense and potential delay of litigating such issues (including possible appeals), the Settlement is in the best interests of the Holders of Claims and Interests in the Cases.

     N. Evidence Regarding Value to the Debtors of the Release. Sections 10.2 and 10.3 of the Plan contain certain release and injunction provisions (the “Release/Injunction Provisions”). Mr. Smith testified that he was not aware of any claims that had been made against any of the parties that would be covered by the Release/Injunction Provisions, or any facts that would give rise to any such claims. He also testified that (i) the annual premium for a directors and officers liability insurance policy for the Debtors in the same $7,500,000 coverage amount as was in effect prior to the Petition Date, and without the Release/Injunction Provisions, would cost the Debtors approximately $254,250 per year, and (ii) the inclusion of the Release/Injunction Provisions in the Plan would enable the Debtors to reduce the need for the coverage amount to $2,500,000, and that the annual premium for a directors and officers liability insurance policy for the Debtors in such amount would cost the Debtors approximately $48,000 per year. Mr. Smith testified that there is value to the Debtors and its creditors beyond this cost savings. Accordingly, the inclusion of the Release/Injunction Provisions in the Plan will result in the Debtors saving at least an estimated $210,000 each year in premiums for directors and officer’s liability insurance. Mr. Smith also testified that, based on the $25.3 million valuation set forth in the Settlement and the estimated $19,000,000 of allowed general unsecured claims, all creditors are being paid, or have the opportunity to be paid2, in full 100% of the value of their Allowed Claims.

     O. Plan Compliance with Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(1)). The Plan complies with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, in satisfaction of Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(1).

     1. Proper Classification (11 U.S.C. §§ 1122, 1123(a)(1)). In addition to Administrative Claims, Priority Tax Claims, and United States Trustee fees, which need not be classified, the Plan designates 6 classes of Claims and Interests with respect to each of the Debtors. The Claims and Interests placed in each Class are substantially similar to other Claims and Interests, as the case may be, in each such Class. Valid business, factual and/or legal reasons exist for separately classifying the various Classes of Claims and Interests, and such Classes and the Plan’s treatment thereof do not unfairly


2 The Plan provides that the holders of Convenience Claims (i.e., claims of $20,000 or less) will receive a cash payment equal to 50% of their Allowed Claim. However, those claimants had the option to reject the cash payment and instead receive stock in the Reorganized Debtor, the value of which would result in the 100% satisfaction of their Allowed Claims.

discriminate between the holders of Claims or Interests. The Plan satisfies Bankruptcy Code sections 1122 and 1123(a)(1).

     2. Specify Unimpaired Classes (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(2)). Article 5.01 of the Plan specifies the Classes of Claims that are unimpaired under the Plan, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Code section 1123(a)(2).

     3. Specify Treatment of Impaired Classes and Interests (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(3)). Articles 5.02 and 5.03 of the Plan specify the Classes of Claims and Interests that are impaired under the Plan and specifies the treatment of the Claims and Interests in those Classes, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Code section 1123(a)(3).

     4. No Discrimination (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(4)). The Plan provides for the same treatment for each Claim or Interest in each respective Class, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Code section 1123(a)(4).

     5. Implementation of Plan (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(5)). The Plan provides adequate and proper means for its implementation, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Code section 1123(a)(5).

     6. Non-Voting Equity Securities (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(6)). Section 11.08 of the Plan provides that the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Reorganized Minorplanet will comply with Bankruptcy Code section 1123(a)(6), including the prohibition of the issuance of non-voting securities.

     7. Selection of Officers and Directors (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(7)). The Debtors properly and adequately disclosed the officers and directors of Reorganized Minorplanet or the manner of the selection of such officers and directors, consistent with the interests of holders of Claims and Interests and with public policy and, accordingly, satisfy Bankruptcy Code section 1123(a)(7).

     8. Additional Plan Provisions (11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)). Consistent with Bankruptcy Code section 1123(b), the Plan’s provisions are appropriate and not inconsistent with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including provisions for (i) Reorganized Minorplanet, in the exercise of its business judgment, to determine whether to enforce, prosecute, or settle (or decline to do any of the foregoing) any Disputed Claims in any Classes of Claims and any Estate Action, except that neither the Debtors nor Reorganized Minorplanet shall assert or prosecute any preference claims arising under Bankruptcy Code section 547 except as a defense to the allowance of any Claim or a setoff asserted by any Claimant, (ii) the rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases; (iii) exculpation of, and releases of claims against, various persons and entities with respect to actions taken in connection with the Debtors’ business or in furtherance of the Cases, and injunctions against certain actions against the Debtors, Reorganized Minorplanet and certain other persons and entities; (iv) the treatment of rights of holders of Administrative Claims and Priority Tax Claims; and (v) execution and performance under the Credit Facility.

     P. Debtors’ Compliance with Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(2)). The Debtors have complied with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(2). Specifically,

     1. The Debtors are proper debtors and proper proponents of the Plan under Bankruptcy Code sections 109 and 1121(a), respectively;

     2. The Debtors have complied with applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, except as otherwise provided or permitted by orders of the Court; and

     3. The Debtors have complied with applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules and the Disclosure Statement Order in transmitting the Solicitation Packages and soliciting and tabulating votes with respect to the Plan.

     Q. Good Faith Solicitation (11 U.S.C. § 1125(e)). The Debtors have solicited votes on the Plan in good faith and in compliance with the Disclosure Statement Order and applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, and order approving the Disclosure Statement, and are entitled to the protection afforded by Bankruptcy Code section 1125(e). All creditors and shareholders were solicited. The time between the solicitation and confirmation was sufficient to comply with the Bankruptcy Code and Rules.

     R. Plan Proposed in Good Faith (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(3)). The Debtors and their officers and directors have proposed the Plan in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law. The Plan represents extensive arms-length negotiation between the Debtors and the Creditors’ Committee. Thus, the Plan satisfies Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(3).

     S. Payments for Services or Costs and Expenses (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(4)). Any payment made or to be made by the Debtors for services or costs and expenses in or in connection with the Cases, or in connection with the Plan and incident to the Cases, has been approved by, or is subject to the approval of the Court, as reasonable, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(4).

     T. Directors and Officers (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(5)). The Debtors have complied with Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(5). The identity and affiliations of the directors and officers of Reorganized Minorplanet after the Effective Date have been fully disclosed, and the appointment of such officers and directors is consistent with the interests of holders of Claims in the Debtors and with public policy.

     U. No Rate Changes (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(6)). No regulatory commission has any jurisdiction over rates charged by Reorganized Minorplanet, and the Plan does not provide for any rate changes by Reorganized Minorplanet. Thus, Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(6) is not applicable to the Cases or to the Plan.

     V . Best Interests of Creditors (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(7)). The Plan satisfies Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(7). Article XI of the Disclosure Statement and the evidence adduced at the Confirmation Hearing are persuasive, credible and uncontroverted; have not been challenged in any objections to confirmation or otherwise; are based on reasonable and sound assumptions; and establish that each holder of an impaired Claim or Interest either has accepted

the Plan or will receive or retain under the Plan, on account of such Claim or Interest, property of a value, as of the Effective Date, that is not less than the amount that such holder would receive or retain if the Debtors were liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code on such date. Mr. Smith and Mr. Kickirillo testified that the Debtors’ creditors and shareholders would receive a larger distribution under the Debtors’ Plan than under a liquidation of their assets. Accordingly, confirmation of the Debtors’ Plan is in the best interests of the Debtors’ creditors and shareholders.

     W. Acceptance by Certain Classes (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(8)). Class 1 Claims against the Debtors are not impaired under the Plan and the holders of those Claims are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan under Bankruptcy Code section 1126(f). Classes 23, 3 and 4 Claims against the Debtors and Class 5 Interests in Minorplanet have each voted to accept the Plan in accordance with Bankruptcy Code sections 1126(c) and (d), as follows:

                                                 
    Number Voting
  Amount Voting
Class

5
                      9,539,760       3,582       99.9 %

Class 6 claims against Limited and Caren will not receive or retain any property on account of such Interests, and the holders of those Interests are deemed to have rejected the Plan under Bankruptcy Code section 1126(g).

     X . Treatment of Administrative and Tax Claims (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(9)). The treatment of Administrative Claims, Priority Tax Claims and Other Priority Claims pursuant to Article III and sections 6.01 and 6.02 of the Plan satisfies the requirement of Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(9).


3 Five Class 2 Claimants initially voted to reject the Plan but thereafter resolved with the Debtors their objections to confirmation, as set forth more fully in paragraph 13 below. Thus, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3018(a), such Class 2 Claimants have shown good cause to change their rejections of the Plan to acceptances, and such change is hereby approved.

Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law and Order Confirming Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization and Approving Settlement of Debtors’ Amended Motion for Valuation – Page 8 of 23

 


 

     Y. Acceptance by Impaired Classes (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(10)). Classes 2, 3 and 4 Claims against the Debtors voted to accept the Plan. Class 5 Interests in Minorplanet voted to accept the Plan. Therefore, as to each Debtor, at least one Class of Claims that is impaired under the Plan has accepted the Plan, as determined without including any acceptance of the Plan by any insider, thus satisfying the requirements of Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(10).

     Z. Feasibility (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(11)). The Plan provides for distributions to creditors in accordance with the priority scheme of the Bankruptcy Code and the terms of the Plan. The Disclosure Statement and the evidence adduced at the Confirmation Hearing is persuasive, credible and uncontroverted; has not been challenged in the Objections or otherwise; is based on reasonable and sound assumptions; and establishes that the Plan is feasible, thus satisfying the requirements of Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(11).

     AA. Payment of Fees (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(12)). All fees payable under section 1930 of title 28 of the United States Code, as determined by the Court, have been paid or will be paid in accordance with applicable law, thus satisfying the requirements of Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(12).

     BB. Continuation of Retiree Benefits (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(13)). To the extent the Debtors are obligated to pay any “retiree benefits,” as defined in Bankruptcy Code section 1114(a), such obligations shall continue after the Effective Date. However, Mr. Smith testified that the Debtors have no pension obligations. Thus, the Plan satisfies the requirements of Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(13).

     CC. Fair and Equitable; No Unfair Discrimination (11 U.S.C. § 1129(b)). Class 6 Interests in Limited and Caren will not receive or retain any property on account of such Interests, and are thus deemed to have rejected the Plan under Bankruptcy Code section 1126(g). Because no holders of any interest junior to such Classes will receive or retain any property under the Plan on account of such junior interests, the Plan does not discriminate unfairly and is fair and equitable with respect to such Classes, as required by Bankruptcy Code section 1129(b). Thus, the Plan may be confirmed notwithstanding that the Plan fails to satisfy Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(8) with respect to such Class. Upon confirmation of the Plan and the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Plan shall be binding upon the members of such Class.

     DD. Exemption from Securities Laws. The offer or sale of the New Common Stock under the Plan is in exchange for Claims, or principally in exchange for Claims and partly for cash or property, within the meaning of Bankruptcy Code section 1145(a)(1). In addition, to the extent, if any, that the New Common Stock constitutes “securities,” the offering of such items is exempt and the issuance and distribution of such items will be exempt from section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 and any state or local law requiring registration prior to offering, issuance, distribution or sale of securities.

     EE. Modifications to the Plan. The modifications to the Second Amended Plan set forth in the Third Amended Plan and presented to the Court at the Confirmation Hearing do not materially adversely affect the treatment of any Claims or Interests in any Classes under the Second Amended Plan. Accordingly, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3019, the Plan does not require any additional disclosure under Bankruptcy Code section 1125 or any re-solicitation of

Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law and Order Confirming Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization and Approving Settlement of Debtors’ Amended Motion for Valuation – Page 9 of 23

 


 

votes under Bankruptcy Code section 1126, nor does it require that holders of Claims or Interests be afforded an opportunity to change previously cast acceptances or rejections of the Plan.

     FF. Satisfaction of Confirmation Requirements and Conditions to Confirmation. The Plan satisfies the requirements for confirmation set forth in Bankruptcy Code section 1129. The conditions to confirmation set forth in section 16.01 of the Plan have been satisfied or will be satisfied by entry of this Confirmation Order and the other orders entered by this Court in these cases.

     GG. Releases and Injunction. The Release/Injunction Provisions are within the jurisdiction of the Court under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1334(a) and (b). The Released Parties have made important contributions to the Debtors’ reorganization, and the Release/Injunction Provisions are important to the Debtors’ reorganization. In particular, the undisputed evidence is that the release of claims against the Debtors’ officers and directors will substantially reduce the insurance costs for Reorganized Minorplanet and significantly assist Reorganized Minorplanet in implementing the Plan through enhanced cash flow. Further, such enhanced cash flow will add value to Reorganized Minorplanet beyond the savings in insurance costs, which will inure to the Holders of Class 3 Claims and Class 5 Interests. The Debtors’ post-confirmation financial projections are based on the Court’s approval of the Release/Injunction Provisions, and Reorganized Minorplanet’s directors and officers insurance was priced based on the release of all claims against the Debtors’ officers and directors relating to conduct through the Effective Date. The Debtors provided conspicuous notice of the Release/Injunction Provisions in the Plan and Disclosure Statement, in accordance with Bankruptcy Rule 3016(c). The Plan provides for the full payment to the Holders of Claims and Interests that are affected by the Release/Injunction Provisions. The Court finds that the Debtors are solvent, as evidenced, in part, by the distribution of property to Class 5 Interest Holders under the Plan. By virtue of the Debtors’ solvency, any claim that is subject to the Release/Injunction Provisions that requires proof of the Debtors’ insolvency would not be a viable claim in any event. A clear majority of the holders of Claims affected by such provisions voted to accept the Plan, and no Claimant or Interest Holder objected to such provisions. The Release/Injunction Provisions satisfy the “unusual circumstances” requirements of In re Zale, 62 F.3d 746 (5th Cir. 1995) and In re Dow Corning Corp., 280 F.3d 648, 656-57 (6th Cir. 2002), subject to the provisions of decretal paragraph 7 below. The U.S. Trustee’s Office was the only party that objected to the Release/Injunction Provision. The Court finds that the Debtors’ professionals have not violated the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Conduct, as suggested in the U.S. Trustee’s objection. The Release/Injunction Provisions are integral elements of the transactions incorporated into the Plan and are important to the overall objectives of the Plan, and are consistent with sections 105, 1123, 1129 and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.

     NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED AS FOLLOWS:

     1. Confirmation. The Plan, including the modifications to the Third Amended Plan presented to the Court at the Confirmation Hearing, is approved and confirmed under Bankruptcy Code section 1129 in its entirety. The terms of the Plan are incorporated by

Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law and Order Confirming Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization and Approving Settlement of Debtors’ Amended Motion for Valuation – Page 10 of 23

 


 

reference into and are an integral part of this Confirmation Order. A copy of the Plan is annexed to this Confirmation Order as Exhibit A.

     2. Settlement. The Settlement Motion is granted pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019(a). All terms of the Settlement are approved, including, but not limited to, the following terms: (a) for purposes of the Plan, the valuation of the Reorganized Minorplanet shall be equal to $25.333 million, (b) Holders of Allowed Class 3 Claims under the Plan shall receive seventy-five percent (75%), and Holders of Allowed Class 5 Interests shall receive twenty-five percent (25%) of the 7,000,000 shares of New Common Stock issued upon confirmation of the Plan, and (c) Reorganized Minorplanet will employ three executive officers of the Debtors and will execute employment agreements with such individuals. To the extent not otherwise withdrawn, waived or settled, all objections and all reservations of rights pertaining to confirmation of the Plan or approval of the Settlement are overruled on the merits. The Court finds that the Settlement is fair and equitable and in the best interests of the Debtors’ estate. Accordingly, the Settlement meets the standards for court approval as articulated in In re Jackson Brewing Co., 624 F.2d 599 (5th Cir. 1980) and In re Foster Mortgage Corp., 68 F.3d 914 (5th Cir. 1995).

     3. Plan Classification Controlling. The classifications of Claims and Interests for purposes of distributions to be made under the Plan shall be governed solely by the terms of the Plan. The classifications set forth on the Ballots tendered to or returned by the Debtors’ creditors and Interest holders in connection with voting on the Plan were set forth on the Ballots solely for purposes of such voting, do not necessarily represent and in no event shall modify or otherwise affect the actual classification of such Claims or Interests under the Plan for any purpose, and shall not be binding on the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet.

     4. Binding Effect. Pursuant to Bankruptcy Code section 1141, and subject to the terms of this Confirmation Order, the Plan and its provisions shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of (i) the Debtors, (ii) Reorganized Minorplanet, (iii) any entity acquiring or receiving property or a distribution under the Plan, (iv) any present or future holder of a Claim against or Interest in the Debtors, whether or not the Claim or Interest of such holder is impaired under the Plan and whether or not such holder or entity has accepted the Plan, (v) any other party in interest, (vi) any person making an appearance in the Cases and (vii) any heirs, successors, assigns, trustee, executors, administrators, affiliates, directors, agents, representatives, attorneys, beneficiaries or guardians of the foregoing.

     5. Vesting of Assets (11 U.S.C. §§ 1141(b) and (c)). Pursuant to section 11.04 of the Plan, the property and assets of the Debtors’ Estates under section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code will revest in Reorganized Minorplanet on the Effective Date free and clear of all Claims and Interests, but subject to the obligations of Reorganized Minorplanet as set forth in the Plan and the Confirmation Order. Commencing on the Effective Date, and subject to the terms of this Confirmation Order, Reorganized Minorplanet may deal with its assets and property and conduct its business without any supervision by, or permission from, the Court or the Office of the United States Trustee, and free of any restriction imposed on the Debtors by the Bankruptcy Code or by the Court during the Cases.

     6. Assumption and Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases (11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)(2)); Bar Date for Cure Payments and Rejection Damage Claims. Pursuant to section 8.02 of the Plan, all executory contracts and unexpired leases to which any of the Debtors is a party shall be automatically rejected as of the Effective Date, unless such executory contract or unexpired lease (i) shall have been previously assumed by any of the Debtors, (ii) is the

subject of a motion to assume filed on or before the Confirmation Date, or (iii) is listed on Exhibit B to this Order (but subject to Exhibit C to this Order). The executory contracts and unexpired leases listed on Exhibit B (and subject to Exhibit C) shall be assumed by the Debtors effective on the Effective Date of the Plan. The Debtors shall serve this Order on all parties to executory contracts and unexpired leases with the Debtors.

          a. With respect to executory contracts and unexpired leases that are being assumed, the Debtors have listed the amounts that the Debtors will pay to cure any existing defaults or amounts owed under each such contract and lease on Exhibit B. Unless the non-Debtor party to such contract or lease files and serves on the Debtors an objection to such cure amount within thirty days of the date of this Order, such non-Debtor party shall be bound by such cure amount and the Debtors shall pay such cure amount to the non-Debtor party in accordance with Section 3.04 of the Plan, in full satisfaction of any and all defaults thereunder.4

          b. All Persons are hereby enjoined from commencing or continuing any action, employment of process, or act to collect, offset, or recover any Claim or cause of action satisfied, released, or discharged under the Plan and this Confirmation Order to the fullest extent authorized or provided by the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, to the extent provided for or authorized by sections 524 and 1141 thereof.

          c. Subject to this Order, any Person who, after the Effective Date, initiates any judicial proceeding to assert or prosecute any claim that is released and enjoined under sections 10.03 and 10.04 of the Plan and this Confirmation Order shall post a bond of $1,000,000 to cover the legal fees and expenses of the person(s) against whom such claims are asserted.

          e. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or this Order to the contrary, the Release/Injunction Provisions of the Plan shall not apply to any of the Released Parties that are retained professionals in the Cases unless and until the Court issues an order approving such professional’s final fee application herein. Further, if any of the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet fails to comply with the provisions of the Plan with respect to the distribution of property to the Holder of an Allowed Claim or an Allowed Interest provided by the Plan, such Holder may seek relief from this Court from the Plan’s Release/Injunction Provisions with respect to such Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest.

of whether such Holders have filed proofs of Interest or Claim, if they are reflected on the books and records of the transfer agent for the Existing Common Stock or the records of the Depository Trust Corporation or the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes as of a record date to be set by the Debtors to be no later than July 15, 2004.

5 Section 303 provides in relevant part: “Any corporation of this State, a plan of reorganization of which, pursuant to any applicable statute of the United States relating to reorganizations of corporations, has been or shall be confirmed by the decree or order of a court of competent jurisdiction, may put into effect and carry out the plan and the decrees and orders of the court or judge relative thereto and may take any proceeding and do any act provided in the plan or directed by such decrees and orders, without further action by its directors or stockholders.”

resolve its Objection to the Plan, and have executed a written stipulation to that effect. MDOR has withdrawn its Objection to the Plan.

     13. Resolution of Objections from Dallas County, Harris County, the City of Houston, the Houston Independent School District, and the City of Richardson. With respect to any Allowed Class 2 (Secured) Claims held by Dallas County, Harris County, City of Houston, City of Richardson, and Houston ISD (collectively, the “Texas Tax Authorities”), (i) interest on the portion of the Texas Tax Authorities’ claims representing delinquent ad valorem property taxes for tax years prior to 2004 shall accrue from the Petition Date through the Effective Date at the state statutory rate of one percent (1%) per month and thereafter at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum until paid in full; (ii) Reorganized Minorplanet shall pay such claims in full no later than the fourth anniversary of the Initial Distribution Date, in equal quarterly payments, with the first payment due on the Initial Distribution Date, and Reorganized Minorplanet may prepay such claim(s) in full at any time without penalty or premium; (iii) the Texas Tax Authorities shall retain their liens securing their claims with the same priority as provided by applicable state law, until such claims are paid in full; and (iv) notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, in the event of default, the tax authority shall give notice of such default to Reorganized Minorplanet through its general counsel, J. Raymond Bilbao, via first class mail to 1155 Kas Drive, Suite 100, Richardson, TX 75081 or via facsimile (972-301-2263) and Reorganized Minorplanet shall have 15 days from the date of mailing or transmission of such notice to cure the default, and if Reorganized Minorplanet fails to cure the default within that time, the tax authority shall be entitled to exercise its state law remedies without recourse to the Bankruptcy Court, and further Reorganized Minorplanet shall be entitled to two notices of default with an opportunity to cure such default, but upon a third event of default the tax

authority shall be able to exercise its state law remedies without recourse to the Bankruptcy Court and without further notice to Reorganized Minorplanet. The objection to confirmation of the Plan filed by the Texas Tax Authorities has been withdrawn.

     14. Resolution of Objection from Texas State Comptroller. With respect to any Allowed Priority Tax Claim held by the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts (“Texas Comptroller”), (a) Reorganized Minorplanet shall pay such claim in full no later than the third anniversary of the Initial Distribution Date, in equal semi-annual payments, with the first payment due on the Initial Distribution Date and interest accruing thereafter on the outstanding principal balance at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum, provided that Reorganized Minorplanet may prepay such claim, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium; (b) the 30-day forbearance and cure periods set forth in sections 10.04 and 18.02, respectively, of the Plan shall be shortened to fifteen (15) days with respect to the Texas Comptroller, and (c) notwithstanding any provision of the Plan, the Texas Comptroller shall retain such rights of setoff it may have under applicable law with respect to its Allowed Priority Tax Claim. Further, notwithstanding any provision of the Plan, a failure by Reorganized Minorplanet to pay the Allowed Priority Tax Claim held by the Texas Comptroller pursuant to the Plan and the provisions of this Order shall be an event of default. If Reorganized Minorplanet fails to cure any event of default within fifteen (15) days after service of a written notice of default from the Texas Comptroller, then the Texas Comptroller may (a) enforce the entire amount of its claim, (b) exercise any and all rights and remedies under applicable non-bankruptcy law, and (c) seek such relief as may be appropriate in this Court. The objection to confirmation of the Plan of the Texas Comptroller to the Plan is hereby overruled to the extent not previously withdrawn.

     16. Final Fee Applications.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or this Confirmation Order, each of the Debtors is discharged, effective as of the Effective Date, from all Claims against, liens on, and Interests in each of the Debtors, the Debtors’ assets and properties, arising at any time before the Effective Date, regardless of whether a proof of Claim or proof of Interest was filed, whether the Claim or Interest is Allowed, or whether the Holder of the Claim or Interest voted to accept the Plan or is entitled to receive a distribution under the Plan. Upon the entry of the Confirmation Order, except as provided in this Confirmation Order, any Holder of the discharged Claim or Interest will be precluded from asserting against the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet or any of their assets or properties any other or further Claim or Interest based on any document, instrument, act, omission, transaction or other activity of any kind or nature that occurred before the Effective Date. The Confirmation Order shall be a judicial determination of discharge of all liabilities of the Debtors, and Reorganized Minorplanet will not be liable for any Claims or Interests and will only have the obligations specifically provided for in the Plan and the Confirmation Order.

     18. Payment of Fees. All U.S. Trustee Fees due and payable by the Debtors as of the Confirmation Date under 28 U.S.C. § 1930 shall be paid in the ordinary course of business as required by applicable law.

     22. Inconsistency. In the event of an inconsistency between the Plan and any agreement, instrument or document intended to implement the provisions of the Plan (other than the Settlement), the provisions of the Plan shall govern unless otherwise expressly provided for in such agreement, instrument or document.

     Class 2 Claims against Minorplanet, Limited, and Caren shall contain separate subclasses for each Other Secured Claim. Each subclass is deemed to be a separate class for all purposes under the Bankruptcy Code. On or as soon as practicable after the Initial Distribution Date, each Holder of an Allowed Secured Claim, in full satisfaction, settlement, release and discharge of each such Claim, shall receive, at Reorganized Minorplanet’s option, either (i) payment in Cash in an amount equivalent to the full amount of such Holder’s Allowed Secured Claim; (ii) deferred Cash payments over a period of five (5) years after the Initial Distribution Date totaling

the amount of such Holder’s Allowed Secured Claim, with interest payable at the prevailing interest rate for United States Treasury Bills maturing on June 30, 2009 as published in the Wall Street Journal on the Effective Date; (iii) the return of the Collateral securing such Allowed Secured Claim in full satisfaction of such Claim; or (iv) such other treatment as may be agreed to in writing by such Holder and the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet. In the event that any such Allowed Secured Claim exceeds the value of the Collateral, any such excess (exclusive of any post-petition interest, fees or other charges Allowed by a Final Order as part of that Allowed Secured Claim) shall constitute a General Unsecured Claim for purposes of the Plan, unless the Holder of such Claim has elected treatment pursuant to section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and in accordance with Bankruptcy Rule 3014. These classes are impaired under the Plan.

     6.03. General Unsecured Claims—Class 3 Against Minorplanet, Limited, and Caren

     On or as soon as practicable after the Initial Distribution Date, each Holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim will receive, in full satisfaction, settlement, release and discharge of its Allowed General Unsecured Claim, a Pro Rata share of seventy-five percent (75%) of seven million (7,000,000) shares of the New Common Stock pursuant to the Stipulation. Within thirty (30) days after a Disputed General Unsecured Claim becomes an Allowed General Unsecured Claim, Reorganized Minorplanet shall distribute to the Holder thereof a number of shares of the Authorized New Common Stock (excluding the New Common Stock) in the same proportion that such Allowed General Unsecured Claim bears to the aggregate of all other Allowed General Unsecured Claims whose Holders have received a Pro Rata share of seventy-five percent (75%) of the New Common Stock distributed pursuant to this section 6.03. This class is impaired under the Plan.

     6.04. Convenience Claims—Class 4 Against Minorplanet, Limited, and Caren

     Each Holder of an Allowed Convenience Claim shall receive Cash in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of their Allowed Claims, up to an aggregate maximum of one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000) for all such Claims. Reorganized Minorplanet shall pay such Cash in full on the Initial Distribution Date. However, if a Holder of an Allowed Convenience Claim votes to reject the Plan, such Holder will receive—in lieu of cash pursuant to this section 6.04 of the Plan—a Pro Rata share of seventy-five percent (75%) of seven million (7,000,000) shares of the New Common Stock in accordance with section 6.03 of the Plan in full satisfaction, settlement, release and discharge of its Allowed Convenience Claim. This class is impaired under the Plan.

     6.05. Interests in Minorplanet attributable to Existing Common Stock—Class 5 as to Minorplanet

     As of the Effective Date, all Interests in Minorplanet will be extinguished. Each Holder of an Allowed Class 5 Interest in Minorplanet will receive a Pro Rata share of twenty-five percent (25%) of seven million (7,000,000) shares of the New Common Stock that is not issued to Holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims pursuant to the Stipulation. Within thirty (30) days after a Disputed Class 5 Interest becomes an Allowed Class 5 Interest, Reorganized Minorplanet shall distribute to the Holder thereof a number of shares of the Authorized New

Common Stock (excluding the New Common Stock) in the same proportion that such Allowed Class 5 Interest bears to the aggregate of all other Allowed Class 5 Interests whose Holders have received a Pro Rata share of twenty-five percent (25%) of the New Common Stock distributed pursuant to this section 6.05. This class is impaired under the Plan.

     6.06. Interests in Minorplanet other than Existing Common Stock and Interests in Caren and Limited—Class 6 as to Minorplanet, Limited, and Caren

     As of the Effective Date, all Interests in Limited and Caren Limited will be extinguished. The Holders of Interests in Minorplanet other than Existing Common Stock and the Holders of Interests in Limited and Caren will not receive or retain any property on account of such Interests. These classes are impaired under the Plan and are deemed to reject the Plan.

ARTICLE VII
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS RELATED TO
TREATMENT OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS

     7.01. Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests

     Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Reorganized Minorplanet shall make Distributions only to Holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Class 5 Interests. No Holder of a Disputed Claim or Disputed Class 5 Interest will receive any Distribution on account thereof until and to the extent that its Disputed Claim or Disputed Class 5 Interest becomes an Allowed Claim or an Allowed Class 5 Interest. Reorganized Minorplanet, in its sole discretion, may withhold Distributions otherwise due hereunder to the Holder of a Claim or Class 5 Interest until the Objection Deadline to enable Reorganized Minorplanet to file a timely objection thereto. Reorganized Minorplanet will establish the Disputed Claims Reserve in accordance with this Plan. Any Holder of a Disputed Claim that becomes an Allowed Claim after the Initial Distribution Date will receive its Distributions accruing before the Allowance Date, without postpetition interest (except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan), as soon as practicable after the Allowance Date in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

     7.02. Postpetition Interest

     In accordance with section 502(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, the amount of all Allowed Claims against the Debtors shall be calculated as of the Petition Date. Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein or in an order of the Bankruptcy Court or pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, no Holder of an Allowed Claim shall be entitled to or receive postpetition interest with respect to any portion of an Allowed Claim. To the extent a Holder of an Allowed Claim is entitled to receive postpetition interest with respect to any portion of its Allowed Claim, such post-petition interest will accrue from the Petition Date through the Effective Date at the Case Interest Rate.

     7.03. Alternative Treatment

     Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, any Holder of an Allowed Claim or an Allowed Class 5 Interest may receive, instead of the Distribution or treatment to which it is entitled hereunder, any other Distribution or treatment to which it and, prior to the Effective

     
Debtor’s Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, as Modified
  Page 14 of 35

 


 

Date, the Debtors or, on or after the Effective Date, Reorganized Minorplanet may agree in writing, so long as such alternative treatment is substantially the same as or less favorable than the treatment otherwise prescribed for such Holder by the Plan.

ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS; TREATMENT OF
EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

     8.01. Indemnification of Current Officers and Directors

     The obligations of any Debtor to indemnify any of the Current Officers and Directors, whether under a Debtor’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or analogous governing documents), any agreement, law or regulation, or otherwise, will be assumed by Reorganized Minorplanet and will continue after the Confirmation Date and be the obligations of Reorganized Minorplanet.

     8.02. General Treatment of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases; Rejected If Not Assumed

     The Plan constitutes and incorporates a motion by the Debtors to reject, as of the Effective Date, all prepetition executory contracts and unexpired leases to which any of the Debtors is a party, except for executory contracts or unexpired leases that (a) have been assumed or rejected pursuant to Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, (b) are the subject of a separate motion pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code to be filed and served by the Debtor on or before the Confirmation Date, or (c) are designated in a Plan Document that lists the executory contracts and unexpired leases that the Debtors intend to assume.

     8.03. Cure Payments and Release of Liability

     All Allowed Cure Claims that may be required by section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code under any executory contract or unexpired lease that is assumed under this Plan or pursuant to a prior Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court shall be made in accordance with section 3.04 of the Plan. To the extent that a party to an assumed executory contract or unexpired lease has not filed an appropriate pleading with the Bankruptcy Court on or before the thirtieth (30th) day after the Effective Date disputing the amount of any Cure Claim offered to it, disputing the cure of any other defaults, disputing the promptness of the Cure Claim payments, or disputing the provisions of adequate assurance of future performance, then such party shall be deemed to have waived its right to dispute such matters.

     8.04. Bar to Rejection Claims

     If the rejection of an executory contract or an unexpired lease by the Debtors results in damages to the other party or parties to such contract or lease, a Claim for such damages shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors, Reorganized Minorplanet or their respective properties or agents, successors, or assigns, unless a proof of Claim is filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served upon Reorganized Minorplanet by the earlier of (a) thirty (30) days after the Effective Date or (b) such other deadline as the Bankruptcy Court may set for asserting a Claim for such damages.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed an admission by the Debtors that such rejection gives rise to or results in a Claim or shall be deemed a waiver by the Debtors of any objections to such Claim if asserted.

Page 16 of 35

 


 

 
All consideration distributed under this Plan will be in exchange for, and in complete satisfaction, settlement, discharge, and release of, all Claims against the Debtors of any nature whatsoever or against any of the Debtors’ assets or properties. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Plan, entry of the Confirmation Order acts as a discharge of all Claims against, liens on, and Interests in each of the Debtors, the Debtors’ assets and properties, arising at any time before the Effective Date, regardless of whether a proof of Claim or proof of Interest was filed, whether the Claim or Interest is Allowed, or whether the Holder of the Claim or Interest votes to accept this Plan or is entitled to receive a distribution under this Plan. Upon the entry of the Confirmation Order, any Holder of the discharged Claim or Interest will be precluded from asserting against the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet or any of their assets or properties any other or further Claim or Interest based on any document, instrument, act, omission, transaction or other activity of any kind or nature that occurred before the Effective Date. The Confirmation Order will be a judicial determination of discharge of all liabilities of the Debtors, and Reorganized Minorplanet will not be liable for any Claims or Interests and will only have the obligations as are specifically provided for in this Plan.
 
     10.03. Release
 
     The Debtors, Reorganized Minorplanet, the Creditors’ Committee, the members of such committee in their capacity as such, any of such parties’ respective present members, officers, directors, employees, advisors, attorneys, representatives, financial advisors, investment bankers, or agents, and any of such parties’ successors and assigns (the “Released Parties”) shall not have or incur, and are hereby released from, any claim, obligation, cause of action, or liability to one another, to any Claim Holder or Interest Holder, to any other party in interest, or to any of their respective agents, employees, representatives, financial advisors, attorneys, or affiliates, or to any of their successors or assigns, for any act or omission before or after the Petition Date through and including the Effective Date in connection with, relating to, or arising out of the operation of the Debtors’ business (other than liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of the Debtors’ business), the Cases, the filing of the Cases, the formulation, preparation, dissemination, approval, confirmation, administration, or consummation of the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, or the property to be distributed under the Plan, except for any act or omission to the extent such act or omission is determined in a Final Order to have constituted willful misconduct or gross negligence, and in all respects the Released Parties shall be entitled to reasonably rely upon the advice of counsel with respect to their duties and responsibilities under the Plan or in connection with the Debtors’ business.
 
     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, no Holder of a Claim or Interest, no other party in interest, none of their respective agents, employees, representatives, financial advisors, attorneys, or affiliates, and no successors or assigns of the foregoing, shall have any right of action against the Released Parties for any act or omission before or after the Petition Date through and including the Effective Date in connection with, relating to, or arising out of the operation of the Debtors’ business (other than liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of the Debtors’ business), the Cases, the filing of the Cases, the formulation, preparation, dissemination, approval, confirmation, administration, or consummation of the Plan or the Disclosure Statement, except for any act or omission to the extent such act or omission is determined in a Final Order to have constituted willful misconduct or gross negligence.

     10.04. Injunction

     The satisfaction, releases, and discharge pursuant to Article X of the Plan shall also act as an injunction against any Person commencing or continuing any action, employment of process, or act to collect, offset, or recover any Claim or cause of action satisfied, released, or discharged under the Plan to the fullest extent authorized or provided by the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, to the extent provided for or authorized by sections 524 and 1141 thereof.

     Any Person who, after the Effective Date, initiates any judicial proceeding to assert or prosecute any claim that is released and enjoined under sections 10.03 and 10.04 of the Plan shall post a bond of $1,000,000 to cover the legal fees and expenses of the person(s) against whom such claims are asserted. Such bond must be issued by a bonding company acceptable to the Person(s) against whom such claims are asserted or shall be established through an escrow account at a federally insured banking institution.

     The releases and injunction provided in sections 10.03 and 10.04 of the Plan shall not release or enjoin any claims against any of the Released Parties with respect to any Allowed Priority Tax Claim the Holder of which has the right under applicable law to seek enforcement of such claims against any of the Released Parties; provided, however, that such Holders shall be temporarily enjoined from enforcing such claims against any of the Released Parties until Reorganized Minorplanet fails to pay such Allowed Priority Tax Claim in accordance with the Plan and fails to cure any Plan payment default within thirty (30) days after Reorganized Minorplanet’s receipt of written notice of such default from the Holder of such Claim.

ARTICLE XI
MEANS FOR EXECUTION OF THIS PLAN

     11.01. Substantive Consolidation

     Before the hearing on this Disclosure Statement, the Debtors filed a Motion for Substantive Consolidation, asking the Bankruptcy Court to approve the substantive consolidation of the Debtors’ Estates. The Debtors have requested a hearing on such motion before the Confirmation Date. This Plan is proposed on the basis that the Motion for Substantive Consolidation is granted on or before the Confirmation Date. If such motion is granted, all of the Debtors will be treated as substantively consolidated as Reorganized Minorplanet. All Cash payments and the issuance of New Common Stock to be made on or after the Effective Date pursuant to this Plan will be the obligation of the substantively consolidated Reorganized Minorplanet, and Reorganized Minorplanet will cause these obligations to be performed. Reorganized Minorplanet will take the other actions contemplated under this Plan to consummate and perform this Plan, including making Distributions, abandoning Collateral, objecting to Claims, administering the Disputed Claims Reserve and asserting claims (including, without limitation, the Estate Actions). All obligations under this Plan that are to be performed over time after the Effective Date, including periodic payments to the Holders of Allowed Secured Claims, Allowed Cure Claims, Allowed Other Priority Claims, and any other Allowed Claims that are to be paid over time shall be the obligations of and continue to be performed by Reorganized Minorplanet. All liens of the Holders of Allowed Secured Claims, and the priority

     
Debtor’s Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, as Modified

of such liens, shall be unaffected by the substantive consolidation and merger of Limited and Caren into Minorplanet. Holders of Allowed Claims will be entitled to only one recovery from the substantively consolidated estate of Reorganized Minorplanet. The Holders of any intercompany Claims by, between, or among Minorplanet, Limited, and Caren will not receive any Distribution on account of such intercompany Claims under this Plan.

     11.02. Reorganized Minorplanet

     From and after the Effective Date, each of Minorplanet, Limited, and Caren will cease to exist as a separate corporate or other entity and will be merged with and into Reorganized Minorplanet in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and pursuant to Reorganized Minorplanet’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation.

     11.03. Sources of Cash

     Reorganized Minorplanet may obtain the funds necessary for the payment of Allowed Claims that are to be paid in Cash on or after the Effective Date through the combination of the Credit Facility and Cash on hand from the Debtors’ operations. On or before the Confirmation Date, the Debtors intend to enter into the Credit Facility with one or more existing or new lenders, on terms as may be acceptable to the Debtors.

     11.04. Revesting of Assets

     Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, the property and assets of the Debtors’ Estates under section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code will revest in Reorganized Minorplanet on the Effective Date free and clear of all Claims and Interests, but subject to the obligations of Reorganized Minorplanet as set forth in this Plan and the Confirmation Order. Commencing on the Effective Date, Reorganized Minorplanet may deal with its assets and property and conduct its business without any supervision by, or permission from, the Bankruptcy Court or the Office of the United States Trustee, and free of any restriction imposed on the Debtors by the Bankruptcy Code or by the Bankruptcy Court during the Cases.

     11.05. Treatment of the Existing Debt Instruments

     As of the Effective Date, except to the extent provided otherwise in the Plan, any and all notes held by Holders of any Claims (including, without limitation, the Notes), and all agreements, instruments and other documents evidencing the Claims and the rights of the Holders of the Claims, will be automatically canceled, extinguished, voided, and surrendered as provided in section 12.02 of the Plan; all obligations of any Person under those instruments and agreements will be fully and finally satisfied and released; and the obligations of the Debtors under those instruments and agreements will be discharged. On the Effective Date, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Plan, the Indenture relating to the Notes will be canceled, and the obligations of the Indenture Trustee and the Debtors thereunder, except for any obligation to pay reasonable professional fees, will be discharged; however, the Indenture will continue in effect solely for the purposes of allowing the Indenture Trustee to maintain any rights or liens it may have for reasonable fees, costs and expenses under the Indenture. On payment in full of the reasonable fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee, except as provided herein, the rights of the Indenture Trustee will terminate.

ARTICLE XII
METHOD OF DISTRIBUTION

     
Debtor’s Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, as Modified
  Page 21 of 35

 


 

     12.01. Reorganized Minorplanet

     Reorganized Minorplanet or its stock transfer agent will make all Distributions required under this Plan (subject to the provisions hereof).

     12.02. Surrender of Securities Or Instruments

     On or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, each Holder of a Certificate or a Note as of the Initial Distribution Date shall surrender such Certificate or Note to Reorganized Minorplanet or its transfer agent and all Certificates and Notes will be canceled. No Distribution of property hereunder will be made to or on behalf of any Holder of a Certificate or a Note unless and until the Certificate or Note is received by Reorganized Minorplanet or its transfer agent or the unavailability of the Certificate or the Note is reasonably established to the satisfaction of Reorganized Minorplanet. Any Holder of a Certificate or a Note who fails to surrender or cause to be surrendered the Certificate or the Note or fails to execute and deliver an affidavit or loss and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to Reorganized Minorplanet before the first anniversary of the Effective Date, will be deemed to have forfeited all rights and Claims or Interests in respect of the Certificate or the Note and will not participate in any Distribution hereunder, and all New Common Stock in respect of the forfeited distribution will be canceled notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary.

     12.03. Initial Distribution Date

     At the close of business on the Initial Distribution Date, the transfer ledgers for the Notes and Interests will be closed, and there will be no further changes in the record Holders of these securities. Reorganized Minorplanet and the Indenture Trustee shall have no obligation to recognize any transfer of any securities or instruments occurring after the Initial Distribution Date and will be entitled instead to recognize and deal for all purposes hereunder with only those record Holders stated on the transfer ledgers as of the close of business on the Initial Distribution Date.

     12.04. Means Of Cash Payment

     Cash payments made pursuant to this Plan will be in U.S. funds, by the means agreed to by the payor and the payee, including by check or wire transfer, or, in the absence of an agreement, by a commercially reasonable manner as the payor will determine in its sole discretion.

     12.05. Calculation of Distribution Amounts of New Securities

     No fractional shares of New Common Stock will be issued or distributed under the Plan or by Reorganized Minorplanet. Each Person entitled under the Plan to receive a Distribution of New Common Stock will receive the total number of whole shares of New Common Stock to which the Person is entitled. Whenever any Distribution, or a portion thereof, to a particular Person would otherwise call for distribution of a fraction of a share of New Common Stock, Reorganized Minorplanet will allocate separately one whole share of New Common Stock to the Person and other Persons similarly entitled, in order of the fractional portion of their entitlement, starting with the largest fractional portion, until all remaining whole shares have been allocated.

     
Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, as Modified
  Page 22 of 35

 


 

Upon the allocation of a whole share to a Person in respect of the fractional portion of its entitlement, the fractional portion will be canceled. If two or more Persons are entitled to equal fractional entitlements and the number of Persons so entitled exceeds the number of whole shares of New Common Stock that remain to be allocated, Reorganized Minorplanet will allocate the remaining whole shares to the Holders by random lot or another impartial method as Reorganized Minorplanet deems fair. Upon the allocation of all of the whole shares authorized under this Plan, all remaining fractional portions of the entitlements will be canceled and will be of no further force and effect.

     12.06. Delivery of Distributions

     Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Class 5 Interests will be made by Reorganized Minorplanet or its transfer agent (a) at the addresses set forth on the proofs of Claim or Interests filed by the Holders, (b) at the addresses set forth in any written notice of address change delivered to Reorganized Minorplanet after the date of any related proof of Claim or Interest, (c) at the addresses reflected in the Schedules if no proof of Claim or Interest has been filed and Reorganized Minorplanet has not received a written notice of a change of address, (d) or at the last known address of the Holder if no proof of Claim or Interest has been filed, (e) in the case of the Holder of a Claim that is governed by the Indenture and is administered by the Indenture Trustee, at the addresses contained in the official records of the Indenture Trustee, or (f) at the addresses set forth in a properly completed letter of transmittal accompanying securities or instruments properly remitted to Reorganized Minorplanet or its transfer agent. If any Holder’s Distribution is returned as undeliverable, no further Distributions to the Holder will be made unless and until Reorganized Minorplanet or its transfer agent is notified of the Holder’s then current address, at which time all missed Distributions will be made to the Holder without interest. Amounts in respect of undeliverable Distributions made by Reorganized Minorplanet will be returned to Reorganized Minorplanet until the Distributions are claimed.

     12.07. Fractional Dollars; De Minimis Distributions

     Any other provision of this Plan notwithstanding, payments of fractions of dollars will not be made. Whenever any payment of a fraction of a dollar under this Plan would otherwise be called for, the actual payment made will reflect a rounding of the fraction to the nearest whole dollar (up or down), with half dollars being rounded down. Reorganized Minorplanet will not make any payment of less than twenty-five dollars ($25.00) with respect to any Claim unless a request is made in writing to Reorganized Minorplanet.

     12.08. Allocation of Plan Distribution Between Principal And Interest

     To the extent that any Allowed Claim entitled to a Distribution under this Plan is comprised of principal indebtedness and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, the Distribution will, to the extent permitted, be allocated for income tax purposes to the principal amount of the Claim first and then, to the extent the consideration exceeds the principal amount of the Claim, to the portion of the Claim representing accrued but unpaid interest.

     12.09. Unclaimed Distributions

     
Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, as Modified

     On the first anniversary of the Effective Date, Reorganized Minorplanet will publish the names of Holders of unclaimed Distributions in the national edition of the Wall Street Journal. Any Distributions under this Plan in the form of Cash remaining unclaimed as of two years after the Effective Date will be released for Reorganized Minorplanet’s use in its ordinary business operations, and any unclaimed Distributions under this Plan in the form of New Common Stock will be canceled.

ARTICLE XIII
CLAIMS RESOLUTION

     13.01. Objections to Claims

     The Debtors and Reorganized Minorplanet will have exclusive authority to object to and contest the allowance of any Claims filed with the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors and Reorganized Minorplanet will use their best efforts to prosecute objections to Claims as warranted. All objections to Claims must be filed by the Objection Deadline, which shall be ninety (90) days after the Effective Date unless extended by order of the Bankruptcy Court. If the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet file an objection to a Claim, such Claim will become a Disputed Claim. Disputed Claims may become Allowed Claims by entry of a Final Order allowing the Claim in whole or in part.

     13.02. Disputed Claims Reserve

     Pending the resolution of Disputed Claims, Reorganized Minorplanet will hold the Distributions for the benefit of Holders of Disputed Claims in trust in the Disputed Claims Reserve. The amount held in the Disputed Claims Reserve will be calculated based on the smaller of (a) the amount claimed, (b) the amount estimated by the Bankruptcy Court for purposes of distribution or (c) the amount determined by the Bankruptcy Court in a claims allowance hearing, even if there is a pending appeal concerning allowance of the Claim. When a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim by a Final Order, Reorganized Minorplanet will cause the Distribution owed on such Allowed Claim to be paid out of the Disputed Claims Reserve within ten (10) Business Days after such order becomes a Final Order. Any Distribution that would have been due to the part of the Claim that is disallowed will be released from the Disputed Claims Reserve and distributed Pro Rata to Allowed Claims of the same class as the Disputed Claim that has become Allowed. These supplemental distributions will be made on the six month anniversary of the Effective Date and every six months thereafter as applicable. The Disputed Claim Reserve shall not include any New Common Stock.

ARTICLE XIV
ASSERTION OF CLAIMS

     14.01. Assertion of Estate Actions, Defenses and Counterclaims

     Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Confirmation Order, or in any contract, instrument, release, indenture or other agreement entered into in connection with the Plan, in accordance with section 1123(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, Reorganized Minorplanet shall retain and may exclusively prosecute, settle, or compromise any Estate Action. Reorganized Minorplanet shall also retain and may prosecute and enforce all defenses, counterclaims, and

     
Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, as Modified
  Page 24 of 35

 


 

rights against or with respect to all Claims asserted against the Debtors, Reorganized Minorplanet, or the Estates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any of the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet is determined by the Bankruptcy Court to be solvent, Reorganized Minorplanet will not commence any action to prosecute an Estate Action if such Estate Action requires proof of the insolvency of any of the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet.

     14.02. Setoffs

     Reorganized Minorplanet may, but will not be required to, set off against any Claim, and the payments or other Distributions to be made pursuant to this Plan in respect of the Claim, claims of any nature whatsoever that the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet may have against the Holder of the Claim, provided, however, that neither the failure to do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder will constitute a waiver or release by the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet of any claim that the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet may have against the Holder. The Holder of a Disputed Claim who asserts a right of setoff will retain the right, subject to any defenses of the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet, until the earlier of the time when (a) the Disputed Claim becomes Allowed, in whole or in part, or (b) the Claim is expunged by entry of an order of the Bankruptcy Court.

ARTICLE XV
VOTING AND EFFECT OF REJECTION BY
ONE OR MORE CLASSES OF CLAIMS

     15.01. Impaired Classes to Vote

     Except as provided in section 5.03 of this Plan, each impaired class of Claims and Interests will be entitled to vote separately to accept or reject this Plan. For purposes of voting to accept or reject this Plan, a Person is a Holder as of the Voting Record Date. A Holder of an Allowed Claim or Interest as of the Voting Record Date may vote to accept or reject this Plan. A Holder of a Claim or Interest as to which an objection has been filed that has not been temporarily allowed for purposes of voting on this Plan may not vote. A Holder of a contingent or unliquidated Claim or Interest may vote on this Plan in an amount based on the portion, if any, of the Claim or Interest shown as fixed, liquidated and undisputed in the Schedules, or equal to $1.00 or one share, if not so shown.

     15.02. Acceptance by Classes of Claims and Interests

     A class of Claims will have accepted this Plan if its members vote to accept by at least two-thirds in amount and more than one-half in number of the Allowed Claims in the class actually voting to accept or reject this Plan. A class of Interests will have accepted this Plan if its members vote to accept by at least two-thirds in amount of the Allowed Class 5 Interests in the class actually voting to accept or reject this Plan.

     15.03. Section 1129(b) Cramdown

     If any impaired class of Claims or Interests fails to accept this Plan in accordance with section 1129(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors reserve the right to request the Bankruptcy Court to confirm this Plan in accordance with the provisions of section 1129(b) of the

     
Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, as Modified

Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors assert that this Plan provides for fair and equitable treatment of all Classes of Claims and Interests.

including the discharge of Claims and cancellation of Interests pursuant to section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code and the assumptions, assignments or rejections of Contracts pursuant to this Plan, and, in this event, nothing contained in this Plan will (a) constitute a waiver or release of any Claims by or against, or any Interests in, the Debtors or (b) prejudice in any manner the rights of the Debtors.

ARTICLE XVII
RETENTION OF JURISDICTION

     17.01. Jurisdiction

     Until the Cases are closed, the Bankruptcy Court will retain the jurisdiction as is legally permissible under applicable law, including under sections 105(a) and 1142 of the Bankruptcy Code, including that necessary to ensure that the purpose and intent of this Plan are carried out and to hear and determine all Claims and Interests and objections thereto that could have been brought before the entry of the Confirmation Order. The Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction to hear and determine all Claims against and Interests in the Debtors and to enforce all causes of action that may exist on behalf of Debtors, over which the Bankruptcy Court otherwise has jurisdiction. Nothing contained in this Plan will prevent Reorganized Minorplanet from taking any action as may be necessary in the enforcement of any cause of action that may exist on behalf of the Debtors and that may not have been enforced or prosecuted by the Debtors.

     17.02. Examination of Claims and Interests

     Following the Confirmation Date, the Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction to decide disputes concerning the classification and allowance of any Claim or Interest and the re-examination of Claims or Interests that have been allowed for the purposes of voting, and the determination of any objections as may be filed to Claims or Interests. The failure by the Debtors to object to, or to examine, any Claim or Interest for the purposes of voting will not be deemed a waiver of their right or the right of Reorganized Minorplanet to object to, or to re-examine, the Claim or Interest in whole or in part.

     17.03. Determination of Disputes

     The Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction after the Confirmation Date to determine all questions and disputes regarding title to the assets of the Estates, disputes concerning the allowance of Claims and Interests, and determination of all causes of action, controversies, disputes, or conflicts, whether or not subject to any pending action, as of the Confirmation Date, for the Debtors or Reorganized Minorplanet to recover assets pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.

     17.04. Additional Purposes

     18.07. Effect of Withdrawal or Revocation

     If the Debtors revoke or withdraw this Plan before the Confirmation Date, or if the Confirmation Date or the Effective Date does not occur, then this Plan will be null and void.

     18.08. Due Authorization

     Each and every Holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Class 5 Interest who elects to participate in the Distributions provided for in this Plan warrants that it is authorized to accept in consideration of such Claim or Interest the Distributions provided for in this Plan and that there are no outstanding commitments, agreements, or understandings, express or implied, that may or can in any way defeat or modify the rights conveyed or obligations undertaken by it under this Plan.

     18.12. Integration Clause

     This Plan is a complete, whole, and integrated statement of the binding agreement between the Debtors, their creditors, their Interest Holders and other parties in interest upon the matters herein.

     18.13. Interpretation

     Unless otherwise specified, all section, article and exhibit references in the Plan are to the respective section in, article of or exhibit to the Plan, as the same may be amended, waived, or modified from time to time.

Notwithstanding any such holding, alteration, or interpretation, the remainder of the terms and provisions of this Plan will remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired, or invalidated by the holding, alteration, or interpretation. The Confirmation Order will constitute a judicial determination and will provide that each term and provision of this Plan, as it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, is valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms.

     18.15. Governing Law

     Unless a rule of law or procedure is supplied by federal law (including the Bankruptcy Code and the Bankruptcy Rules), the laws of (i) the State of Texas shall govern the construction and implementation of the Plan and any agreements, documents, and instruments executed in connection with the Plan and (ii) the laws of the state of incorporation of each Debtor shall govern corporate governance matters and any causes of action arising under state law with respect to such Debtor, in either case without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereto.

(to be renamed REMOTE DYNAMICS, INC.)

     Minorplanet Systems USA, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware, hereby certifies as follows:

     1. The corporation filed its original Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on January 28, 1994 under the name “HM Holding Corporation” and such was amended and eventually restated by a Restated Certificate of Incorporation filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on June 12, 2001 (as amended, the “Restated Certificate of Incorporation”).

     2. This Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (this “Certificate”) amends and restates the Restated Certificate of Incorporation. This Certificate was duly adopted pursuant to the provisions of Section 303 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time (the “DGCL”).

     3. The text of the corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation is hereby amended by deleting the Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as currently in effect) in its entirety, and restating it, so that as amended and restated, the corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation shall now read in its entirety as follows:

I. NAME

     The name of the corporation is Remote Dynamics, Inc.

II. EXISTENCE

     The corporation is to have perpetual existence.

III. PURPOSE

     The purpose for which the corporation is organized is the transaction of any or all lawful business for which corporations may be incorporated under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

IV. CAPITALIZATION

     The aggregate number of shares of capital stock which the corporation shall have authority to issue is 52,000,000 shares consisting of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), and 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. Each holder of a share of Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share held in any stockholder vote in which any of such holders is entitled to participate.

-1-


 

     The Board of Directors of the corporation, by resolution or resolutions, may at any time and from time to time, divide and establish any or all of the unissued shares of Preferred Stock not then allocated to any series of Preferred Stock into one or more series and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, fix and determine the designation of each such share, the number of shares which shall constitute such series and certain powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and qualifications, limitations and restrictions and voting rights of the shares of each series so establishing.

V. STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS

     The preemptive right of any stockholder of the corporation to acquire additional, unissued or treasury shares of the corporation, or securities of the corporation convertible into or carrying a right to subscribe to or acquire shares of the corporation, is hereby denied; provided, however, that nothing herein shall preclude the corporation from granting preemptive rights by contract or agreement to any person, corporation or other entity. Cumulative voting by the stockholders of the corporation at any election of directors of the corporation is hereby prohibited.

VI. REGISTERED AGENT

     The street address of the initial registered office of the corporation is 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, New Castle County, Delaware 19801, and the name of its initial registered agent at such address is The Corporation Trust Company.

     To the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, a director of the corporation shall not be liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Any repeal or amendment of this Article VII by the stockholders of the corporation or by changes in applicable law shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prospective only, and shall not adversely affect any limitation on the personal liability of any director of the corporation at the time of such repeal or amendment.

VIII. INDEMNIFICATION

     The corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative, any appeal in such an action, suit or proceeding and any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such an action, suit or proceeding (whether or not by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, nonprofit entity, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against all judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes), fines, settlements and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) actually and reasonably incurred by him in

-2-


 

connection with such action, suit or proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable law, and such indemnity shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of any such person so indemnified pursuant to this Article VIII. The right to indemnification under this Article VIII shall be a contract right and shall include, with respect to directors and officers, the right to be paid by the corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its disposition; provided, however, that, if the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding shall be made only upon delivery to the corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VIII or otherwise. The corporation may, by action of its board of directors, pay such expenses incurred by employees and agents of the corporation upon such terms as the board of directors deems appropriate. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other right to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any law, bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. Any repeal or amendment of this Article VIII by the stockholders of the corporation or by changes in applicable law shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prospective only, and not adversely affect the indemnification of any person who may be indemnified at the time of such repeal or amendment.

IX. INTERESTED TRANSACTIONS

     Any director or officer of the corporation individually, or any corporation, partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of the corporation’s directors or officers are directors or officers or have a financial interest (an “Interested Party”) may be a party to, or may be pecuniarily or otherwise interested in, any contract or transaction of the corporation, provided that (a) the material facts as to such Interested Party’s relationship and as to such contract or transaction shall be disclosed or shall have been known to the board of directors, and the board of directors in good faith shall authorize such contract or transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of the disinterested directors (even though the disinterested directors constitute less than a quorum); or (b) the material facts as to such Interested Party’s relationship and as to such contract or transaction shall be disclosed or shall have been known to the stockholders entitled to vote on such contract or transaction, and the stockholders in good faith shall approve such contract or transaction; or (c) such contract or transaction is fair as to the corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the board of directors or the stockholders. Any Interested Party who is a director of the corporation may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the board of directors which authorizes any contract or transaction between the corporation and an Interested Party.

X. MISCELLANEOUS

     Election of directors need not be by written ballot. In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the board of directors of the corporation is expressly authorized to adopt the bylaws of the corporation, to amend or repeal the bylaws or to adopt new bylaws, subject to any limitations which may be contained in such bylaws.

On June 29, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Company’s reorganization plan.

See Item 2: “Changes in Securities, Use of Proceeds, and Issuer Purchase of Securities under Part II of this Form 10-Q for a description of transactions that occurred after May 31, 2004 but before the filing of this Form 10-Q that would have changed materially the number of common shares outstanding if such transactions had occurred before May 31, 2004.
