Note 1 – Organization and Nature of Business

On August 9, 2007, KeyOn Communications, Inc. (“KeyOn” or “the Company”) became a publicly-traded company by virtue of a merger with a publicly-traded company, Grant Enterprises, Inc. (“Grant”), a holding company with no operating business (the “Merger”). In connection with the merger, 900,001 shares of Grant remained outstanding and all other outstanding shares of Grant were cancelled. Also, in connection with the merger, Grant issued 6,650,069 shares of its common stock for all outstanding common stock of KeyOn. Upon closing of the Merger transaction, a wholly owned subsidiary of Grant merged with and into KeyOn, and KeyOn, as the surviving corporation, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Grant. All pre-merger assets and liabilities of Grant were split-off from Grant, leaving KeyOn’s business as the surviving operations of Grant. As a result of the transaction, the former owners of KeyOn became the controlling stockholders of Grant and Grant changed its name to KeyOn Communications Holdings, Inc. Accordingly, the merger of KeyOn and Grant is a reverse merger. Effective on August 9, 2007, and for all reporting periods thereafter, the Company’s operating activities, including any prior comparative period, will include only those of KeyOn Communications Holdings, Inc.

KeyOn Communications, Inc., was incorporated on December 16, 2004, under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company provides wireless broadband, satellite video and voice-over-IP (VoIP) services primarily to small and rural markets in the Western and Midwestern United States. KeyOn’s markets are located in eleven (11) Western and Midwestern states: Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Nevada, Ohio, South Dakota, and Texas. The Company has eight wholly-owned organizations (in combination referred to as the “related entities”): KeyOn Communications, LLC; KeyOn SIRIS, LLC; KeyOn Grand Junction, LLC; KeyOn Idaho Falls, LLC; KeyOn Pahrump, LLC; KeyOn Pocatello, LLC and KeyOn SpeedNet LLC and KeyOn Spectrum Holdings, LLC.

It will continue its operations until February 26, 2502 or until dissolved, if sooner.

KeyOn Pahrump, LLC (Pahrump), a wholly-owned limited liability operating entity of the Company, was organized on September 26, 2003 under the laws of the State of Nevada, to serve a market located in Pahrump, Nevada and its surrounding areas with a wireless broadband service as previously described. It will continue its operations until September 26, 2503 or until dissolved, if sooner.

KeyOn SIRIS, LLC (SIRIS), a wholly-owned limited liability operating entity of the Company, was organized on June 16, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada, to serve markets KeyOn acquired in June 2005 located in southern Iowa with a wireless broadband service as previously described.

It will continue its operations until May 31, 2505 or until dissolved, if sooner.

KeyOn Idaho Falls, LLC (Idaho Falls), a wholly-owned limited liability operating entity of the Company, was organized on May 31, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada, to serve a market located in Idaho Falls, Idaho and its surrounding areas with a wireless broadband service as previously described. It will continue its operations until May 31, 2505 or until dissolved, if sooner.

It will continue its operations until May 31, 2505 or until dissolved, if sooner.

KeyOn SpeedNet, LLC (SpeedNet LLC), a wholly-owned limited liability operating entity of the Company, was organized on June 27, 2006 under the laws of the State of Nevada. It served as an acquisition subsidiary in the acquisition of SpeedNet. SpeedNet LLC houses the previous operations of SpeedNet, including wireless broadband

markets operating the states of Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota, and Texas. It will continue its operations until June 27, 2506 or until dissolved, if sooner.

KeyOn Spectrum Holdings, LLC (Spectrum Holdings), a wholly-owned limited liability operating entity of the Company, was organized on November 26, 2007 under the laws of the State of Nevada.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements and with Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not contain all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to make the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2009 and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 not misleading. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three month and nine month period ended September 30, 2009, and September 30, 2008 should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 as contained in the Form 10K filed on April 15, 2009.

Estimates

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were used, and such variances could be significant.

Revenue Recognition

The Company prepares its financial statements on the accrual method of accounting. Under this basis, income is recognized when earned, and expenses are generally recognized when incurred. The Company charges a recurring subscription fee for providing its various Internet access services to its subscribers and recognizes revenues when they are earned, which generally occurs as the service is provided. Subscriptions to the services are in the form of annual or two year contracts and are generally billed monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually in advance. Payments received in advance for subscriptions are deferred and recognized as the services are provided. Service initiation fees are recognized at time of installation. For the satellite video business, in which the Company is a retailer of video services from DISH Network Corporation (“DISH”), the Company recognizes revenues at the time of installation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. For financial statement purposes, investments in money market funds are considered a cash equivalent and are included in cash and cash equivalents.

Inventories

The Company maintains a consistent stock supply of customer premise equipment, installation supplies, and tower replacement parts. The value of this inventory was $116,495 and $158,019 as of September 30, 2009 and

December 31, 2008, respectively. The Company also began to carry inventory in 2007 in support of its launch as a retailer of satellite video service from DISH. The value of this inventory was $14,200 and $14,415 as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. The inventory is carried at the incurred cost value of the invoiced amount from the suppliers. Once the DISH installation is complete, the revenue is recognized and the cost of inventory is expensed to operating expense

Acquisition Costs and Intangible Assets

Acquisition costs, which may include certain intangible assets, are capitalized as incurred as part of the related investment. Once a potential acquisition is identified as no longer attainable, such costs are charged to expense.

Intangible assets, including goodwill, are accounted for under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, “Intangibles--Goodwill and Other”. Under ASC 350, intangible assets, other than goodwill, are identified and segregated between amortizable and non-amortizable assets. Amortizable intangibles are amortized over their estimated, contractual, or regulated useful lives. Goodwill and other non-amortizable assets are reviewed, at least annually, for impairment in the carrying value of the intangible asset. In addition, this review also includes the net carrying value of amortizable intangible assets. If impairment is deemed to have occurred, a loss for such impairment is recorded as part of current operations.

Deferred Revenues

Payments received in advance for subscriptions are deferred and recognized as the services are provided. The amount of revenue that was deferred was $273,413 and $310,689 at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2009 financial statement amounts to conform to the 2008 financial presentation.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent the Company believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets that do not meet the criteria for recognition. In the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, they would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

The Company follows the accounting guidance which provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized initially and in subsequent periods. Also included is guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for all compensation related to stock, options or warrants using a fair value based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value of options and warrants issued to both employees and non-employees. Stock issued for compensation is valued using the market price of the stock on the date of the related agreement. The Company recorded total stock-based compensation of $449,732 (see Note 8) for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, compared to $3,098,126 for the same period in 2008.

Consolidation Policy

The accompanying consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows, referred to as “KeyOn Communications Holdings, Inc.,” includes the accounts of KeyOn Communications, Inc., KeyOn Communications, LLC, KeyOn Pahrump, LLC, KeyOn SIRIS, LLC, KeyOn Grand Junction, LLC, KeyOn Idaho Falls, LLC, KeyOn Pocatello, LLC, KeyOn SpeedNet LLC and KeyOn Spectrum Holdings, LLC all of which are under common ownership. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Certain factors, including current liabilities exceeding current assets and the presence of recurring losses and negative cash flow, among others, indicate the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

Management has taken the following steps to strengthen the financial condition of the Company. Certain of these initiatives are described below:

Operations

During 2008 and continuing through the first quarter of 2009, the Company materially reduced its headcount from March 31, 2008 to April 15, 2009. In addition, the Company modified work schedules across the organization and continued to narrow its marketing efforts in the second half of fiscal year 2008, choosing to focus its efforts on its existing customer base to obtain new customer referrals. These initiatives resulted in fewer gross customer additions but reduced expenses in this area. The Company also increased its charges for new subscriber installations, resulting in a faster break-even point for new subscriber additions.

Financial

During the third quarter of 2009, the Company raised equity capital through the issuance of common stock totaling $1,535,000. Also, a warrant holder exercised warrants for common stock for an additional $50,000. As a result, the Company received a total of $1,585,000 relating to the issuance of common stock.

Prior to August 31, 2009, the Company had subordinated secured notes and accrued interest outstanding of $1,517,286, including principal and interest. Prior to September 30, 2009, all of the subordinated secured note holders exercised their contractual rights to convert the subordinate secured notes into a total of 3,693,069 shares of common stock, thereby reducing the Company’s outstanding liabilities. As of September 30, 2009 1,316,979 of the shares were represented as a stock payable,

In order to continue our acquisition and organic growth strategies, as well as to sustain our current capital needs, management projects that we will require funds from sources outside of our normal operations. Management has been successful raising additional outside capital from institutions or other third parties during the quarter and will continue to do so opportunistically.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On July 1, 2009, the FASB officially launched the FASB ASC 105 -- Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“the Codification”), as the single official source of authoritative, nongovernmental, U.S. GAAP, in addition to guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Codification is designed to simplify U.S. GAAP into a single, topically ordered structure. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. Accordingly, the Company refers to the Codification in respect of the appropriate accounting standards throughout this document as “FASB ASC”. Implementation of the Codification did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The following pronouncements have been issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”):

In December 2007, the FASB issued an update to FASB ASC 805, “Business Combinations” which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, and the goodwill acquired. SFAS 141R also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141R is effective for the Company with respect to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. The Company adopted this SFAS in the first quarter of 2009 without significant financial impact.

In December 2007, the FASB issued an update to FASB ASC 810, “Consolidation”, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest, and the valuation of retained noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS 160 also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of noncontrolling owners. This update is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2009. The Company adopted this update in January 2009 without significant impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations, and disclosures.

In March 2008, the FASB issued an update to FASB ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” This update is intended to enhance the current disclosure framework in FASB ASC 815. Under this update, entities will have to provide disclosures about (a) how and why and entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB ASC 815 and its related interpretations, and (c), how derivative instruments and related hedged items effect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. This update is effective for all financial statements issued for fiscal and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company does not currently have any derivative instruments, nor does it engage in hedging activities, therefore, the Company’s adoption of this update in the first quarter of 2009 was without significant financial impact.

In May 2008, the FASB issued an update to FASB ASC 470, “Debt”, with respect to accounting for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion including partial cash settlement. This update applies to convertible debt instruments that, by their stated terms, may be settled in cash (or other assets) upon conversion, including partial cash settlement, unless the embedded conversion option is required to be separately accounted for as a derivative under FASB ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Additionally, this update specifies that issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost recognized in subsequent periods. The update is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not currently have any debt instruments for which this update would apply. This update was adopted in January 2009 without significant financial impact.

In April 2009, the FASB issued an update to FASB ASC 805, “Business Combinations”, that clarifies and amends FASB ASC 805, as it applies to all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies. This update addresses initial recognition and measurement issues, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosures regarding these assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. The Company adopted this Statement in the second quarter of 2009 without significant impact to the financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (“FSP FAS 157-4;”), to address challenges in estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased. This FSP emphasizes that even if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability and regardless of the valuation technique(s) used, the objective of a fair value measurement remains the same. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating FSP FAS 157-4 to determine its impact on its future consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In May 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 855, “Subsequent Events”. This Statement addresses accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or available to be issued. FASB ASC 855 requires disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date, the date issued or date available to be issued. The Company adopted this Statement in the second quarter of 2009. As a result the date through which the Company has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date have been disclosed in Note 9, Subsequent Events.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140”. SFAS No. 166 amends SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities” by eliminating the concept of special-purpose entity, requiring the reporting entity to provide more information about sales of securitized financial assets and similar transactions, particularly if the seller retains some risk to the assets, changes the requirements for the de-recognition of financial assets, and provides for the sellers of the assets to make additional disclosures. This Statement shall be effective as of the Company’s first interim reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. Earlier application is prohibited. The Company does not anticipate any significant financial impact from adoption of SFAS No. 166. As of September 30, 2009, SFAS No. 166 has not been added to the Codification.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)”. SFAS No. 167 addresses the effect on FASB Interpretation 46(R), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” of the elimination of the qualifying special-purpose entity concept of SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets”. SFAS No. 167 also amends the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB Interpretation 46(R) to enhance the timeliness and usefulness of information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. This Statement shall be effective as of the Company’s first interim reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. Earlier application is prohibited. The Company does not anticipate any significant financial impact from adoption of SFAS No. 167. As of September 30, 2009, SFAS No. 167 has not been added to the Codification.

On June 30, 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2009-01 (Topic 105) – Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – amendments based on – Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168 – The FASB Accounting and Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Beginning with this Statement the FASB will no longer issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standard Updates. This ASU includes FASB Statement No. 168 in its entirety. While ASU’s will not be considered authoritative in their own right, they will serve to update the Codification, provide the bases for conclusions and changes in the Codification, and provide background information about the guidance. The Codification modifies the GAAP hierarchy to include only two levels of GAAP: authoritative and nonauthoritative. ASU No. 2009-01 is effective for financial statements issued for the interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, and the Company does not expect any significant financial impact upon adoption.

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) – Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value. This ASU clarifies the fair market value measurement of liabilities. In circumstances where a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the following techniques: a technique that uses quoted price of the identical or a similar liability or liabilities when traded as an asset or assets, or another valuation technique that is

consistent with the principles of Topic 820 such as an income or market approach. ASU No. 2009-05 was effective upon issuance and it did not result in any significant financial impact on the Company upon adoption.

In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-12 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) – Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or its equivalent). This ASU permits use of a practical expedient, with appropriate disclosures, when measuring the fair value of an alternative investment that does not have a readily determinable fair value. ASU No. 2009-12 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009, with early application permitted. Since the Company does not currently have any such investments, it does not anticipate any impact on its financial statements upon adoption.

Under the 2007 Plan, we are authorized to issue incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Code, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, restricted stock and long term incentive awards. The 2007 Plan is administered at the direction of the Board of Directors.

The assets to be acquired are used in the business of operating a wireless broadband network that provides high-speed Internet access and other related services to both residential and commercial subscribers in Texas. At Closing, as consideration for these acquired assets, the Company will pay Data Sales Co., Inc., 33,388 shares of common stock of the Company, subject to adjustment as described in the Asset Purchase Agreement and as further described on Form 8-K filed November 13, 2009.


Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

We provide wireless broadband services primarily to rural and other underserved markets under the “KeyOn,” “SpeedNet,” and “SIRIS” brands. We offer our broadband services along with satellite video and VoIP services to both residential and business subscribers. As of September 30, 2009, the Company had approximately 13,700 subscribers and operated networks covering over 50,000 square miles in 11 states across the Midwest and Western United States. KeyOn primarily focuses on providing fixed wireless broadband to rural and other areas of the country that it believes are currently underserved by traditional phone and cable companies. Including the operations of SpeedNet our markets are located in the following 11 Western and Midwestern states: Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Nevada, Ohio, South Dakota, and Texas.

The Company has grown through the consolidation of similar companies throughout its target markets as well as continued organic growth. To date, the Company has completed and successfully integrated four acquisitions adjacent to the Company’s existing network footprint. KeyOn’s acquisition strategy, Rural UniFi, provides the Company with the opportunity to grow its subscriber base while expanding its earnings through operating expense reductions and extraction of synergies achieved in integration. In addition, KeyOn has applied for government funds under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) which offers a significant and capital efficient opportunity to extend the Company’s footprint throughout rural America. To the extent KeyOn is successful in its ARRA initiatives, KeyOn will have the ability to deliver 4G wireless broadband services to some of the most rural communities in the United States.

Despite a particularly challenging economic environment, the Company has achieved a number of milestones including stronger operating performance, success in attracting third-party equity investors, the de-leveraging of its balance sheet through debt repayment and conversion, and submission of applications under ARRA. As a result of these successes, the Company believes it can continue to opportunistically grow its business through organic growth and acquisitions as well as possibly obtaining financing to deploy broadband in rural and underserved areas pursuant to specific portions of ARRA.

Characteristics of Our Revenues and Operating Costs and Expenses

We offer our services under annual, two-year or month-to-month service agreements. These services are generally billed monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually in advance. Payments received in advance for subscriptions are deferred and recognized as the services are provided. Service initiation fees are recognized at the time of installation.

Operating costs and expenses consist of payroll and related expenses, network operating costs, marketing and advertising, professional fees, installation expense, cost of DISH inventory, depreciation and general and administrative expenses. Payroll expenses consist of personnel costs, including salaries, benefits, employer taxes, stock based compensation and bonuses across our functional areas: executive, customer support, engineering, accounting and billing, marketing, and local market operational staff.

Network operating costs are comprised of costs directly associated with providing our services including tower rent, circuits to transport data to the Internet termination point and Internet termination bandwidth.

Marketing and advertising expenses primarily consist of direct marketing and advertising costs. Professional fees relate to legal, accounting and consulting and recruiting resources that we utilize periodically in the normal course of doing business. General and administrative expenses primarily consist of the support costs of our operations, such as costs related to office real estate leases, company insurance, travel and entertainment, banking and credit card fees, taxes and vehicle leases.

Results of Operations

Three-Month Period Ended September 30, 2009 as Compared to the Three-Month Period Ended September 30, 2008

Revenues. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, we recognized revenues of $1,672,730, as compared to revenues of $1,878,737 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 11.0%. This decrease was the result of a decline in our customer base. While customer disconnects have remained stable, we have not spent marketing dollars to acquire new subscribers. This reduction in marketing expenses is consistent with our cost restructuring plan which is focused on sustaining our current customer base while reducing overall operating costs.

Operating Loss. Operating expenses, which consist of payroll, bonuses and taxes, depreciation and amortization, other general and administrative costs, network operating costs, marketing and advertising, installation expense, and professional fees totaled $3,113,707 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $3,152,294 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 1.2%. The main driver of this decrease is the reduction in payroll and related expenses. The non-cash stock-based compensation expenses during the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 was $219,601, as compared to $537,294 incurred in the three-month period ended September 30, 2008. The reduction in headcount resulted in payroll and benefits of $773,430 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $868,733 incurred in the three-month period ended September 30, 2008. This expense reduction in payroll and related expenses was offset by an increase in our professional fees. We experienced an increase of $396,192 in professional fees during the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to the three-month period ended September 30, 2008 which was due to expenses incurred in furtherance of our applications for government stimulus funding under ARRA as well as our third-party financing initiatives. The non-cash stock-based compensation in professional fees during the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 was $257,662, as compared to no stock-based compensation incurred in the three-month period ended September 30, 2008. Our actual operating loss margin increased by 18 percentage points from a total operating loss of $1,440,977 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a loss of $1,273,557 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, which was directly attributable to the increased one-time expenses incurred in connection with our ARRA applications and third-party financing expenses.

Payroll, Bonuses and Taxes. Payroll bonuses and taxes totaled $993,031 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $1,406,027 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 29.4%. A majority of this decrease, 76.9%, was due to the non-cash stock compensation recorded for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2008. The remaining portion of the decrease, 23.1%, was due to our efforts to improve our internal processes which resulted in our ability to reduce headcount.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses totaled $582,405 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $669,935 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 13.1%. This decrease was primarily due to limited new equipment purchases resulting from slowing sales.

Network Operating Costs. Network operating costs, which consist of tower rent, Internet transport costs and Internet termination expense, totaled $665,619 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $639,517 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an increase of approximately 4.1%. The increase was primarily due to maintenance work on our towers and repair work at customer locations.

Other General and Administrative Expenses. Other general and administrative expenses totaled $326,950 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $248,116 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an increase of approximately 31.8%. 65.3% of the increase was due to an increase in bad debt expense. The remaining 34.7% was due to a credit received in the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, for a payment agreement on printing services incurred during 2007.

$53,279 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $99,519 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 46.5%. Although installation volumes decreased by 68.6%, fuel costs rose during the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, resulting in an overall expense decrease of 46.5%.

Professional Fees. Professional fees, which consist of legal, accounting, and other related expenses, totaled $471,422 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $75,230 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an increase of approximately 526.6%. Professional fees directly associated with our applications under ARRA accounted for 54.7% of the increase. The remaining 45.3% of the increase was due to non-cash compensation expense for professional fees due under other consulting engagement initiatives.

Marketing and Advertising Expenses. Marketing and advertising expenses totaled $21,001 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $13,950 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an increase of approximately 50.5%. This increase was attributed to the initiation of advertising in certain markets during the three month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to limited targeted advertising during the three month period ended September 30, 2008. Our marketing costs were 1.3% of revenue for the three month period ended September 30, 2009 and 0.7% for the three month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a 1 percentage point increase.

Other Income and Expense. We incurred other income and expense of $1,463,348 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, of which $1,188,042 was a non-cash related expense, as compared to $216,047 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an increase of 577.3%. 95.2% of this increase, resulted from the non-cash beneficial conversion expense associated with the secured subordinated notes that matured on August 31, 2009. The remaining 4.8% is due to interest expense on our subordinated secured notes issued after the period ended September 30, 2008. These notes and associated accrued interest all converted to common stock and common stock payable during the three month period ended September 30, 2009.

Net Loss. We had a net loss of $2,904,325 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to a net loss of $1,489,604 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an increase of approximately 95.0%. The major contributing factor accounting for 84.0% of the change resulted from the non-cash beneficial conversion expense associated with the secured subordinated notes that matured on August 31, 2009. The remaining 16.0% was due to the increase in professional fees related to expenses incurred in furtherance of our applications for government stimulus funding under ARRA as well as our third-party financing expenses. Normalized net loss without the non-cash compensation expenses and the beneficial conversion expense would have been $1,239,020 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $952,310 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an increase of 30.1%. This increase in net loss was driven from an increase in professional fees for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the three-month period ended September 30, 2008. Our net loss margin increased by 94 percentage points from a net loss of $2,904,325 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a net loss of $1,489,604 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008. After removing the non-cash compensation expenses from payroll and professional fees and the beneficial conversion, our normalized net loss margin increased by 23 percentage points from a total normalized net loss $1,239,020 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a net loss of $952,310 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008.

Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2009 as Compared to the Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2008

Revenues. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, we recognized revenues of $5,323,234, as compared to revenues of $5,911,056 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 9.9%. This decrease was the result of a decline in our customer base. While customer disconnects have remained stable, we have not spent marketing dollars to acquire new subscribers. This reduction in marketing expenses is consistent with our cost restructuring plan which is focused on maintaining our current customer base while reducing overall operating costs.

expense, and professional fees totaled $8,209,952 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $12,125,945 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 32.3%. A majority of this decrease, 90.8%, was due to $449,732 incurred for non-cash stock-based compensation expenses during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $3,098,126 incurred in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008. Another contributing factor, accounting for 27.3% of the decrease, was the reduction in salaries and benefits due to our focused cost reduction initiatives. The decrease in payroll costs was offset by an increase in professional fees for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008. This increase was due to our application fees under ARRA and our third-party financing initiatives. Without the non-cash stock compensation expenses of $270,912 in professional fees and $449,732 in payroll and benefits, incurred during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, and $3,098,126 in payroll and benefits incurred during the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, normalized operating expenses would have been $7,489,308 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $9,027,819 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of 17.0% in operating expenses. Our actual operating loss margin improved by 51 percentage points from a total operating loss of $2,886,718 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a loss of $6,214,889 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008. By removing non-cash stock compensation expense from payroll and from professional fees of $720,644 and $3,098,126, respectively, our normalized operating loss margin improved by 12 percentage points from a total normalized operating loss $2,166,074 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a loss of $3,116,763 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008.

Payroll, Bonuses and Taxes. Payroll bonuses and taxes totaled $2,569,207 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $6,012,455 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 57.3%. 76.9% of this decrease was due to the non-cash stock compensation recorded for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008. The remaining portion of the decrease, 23.1%, was due to our efforts to improve our internal processes which resulted in our ability to reduce headcount.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses totaled $1,839,362 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $2,069,249 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 11.1%. This decrease was primarily due to limited new equipment purchases resulting from slowing sales.

Network Operating Costs. Network operating costs, which consist of tower rent, Internet transport costs and Internet termination expense, totaled $2,128,346 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $2,109,791 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an increase of approximately 0.9%. The negligible increase was primarily due to a modest increase in our transport and termination purchased costs from our providers and a slight increase in our tower maintenance and repair costs.

Other General and Administrative Expenses. Other general and administrative expenses totaled $893,668 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $924,997 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 3.4%. The majority of the decrease was due to a settlement agreement on a payment arrangement that was satisfied in full during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

Installation Expense. Installation expense, which consists primarily of expenses associated with installation supplies, third party installation costs and transportation expenses relating to the installations, totaled $133,245 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $342,940 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 61.1%. Installation volumes decreased by 66.4%, accounting for the decline in installation expenses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008.

Professional Fees. Professional fees, which consist of legal, accounting, and other related expenses, totaled $603,945 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $320,370 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an increase of approximately 88.5%. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, consulting and advisory expenses of $270,912 were recorded as non-cash compensation. Without these non-cash expenses, professional fees for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, would

have been $333,033, or an increase of only 4.0% as compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008. Professional fees for our application expenses incurred in connection with ARRA account for the increase during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008.

Marketing and Advertising Expenses. Marketing and advertising expenses totaled $42,179 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $315,030 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately 86.6%. This decrease was attributed to our concentration on programs to maintain existing customers and obtain new customer referrals from those customers during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the more broad-based marketing plan we employed during the nine month period ended September 30, 2008. Our marketing costs were 0.8% of revenue for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 and 5.3% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, representing a 5 percentage point decrease.

Cost of DISH Inventory. No expense for the cost of DISH inventory was recognized for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $31,113 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008. The expense for DISH inventory is recognized immediately after installation. We began installations as a DISH retailer in January 2008. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, as a result of our focus on our existing customers, we did not complete any DISH installations.

Other Income and Expense. We incurred other income and expense of $2,074,268 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $578,502 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an increase of 258.6%. The primary reason for the increase, 79.4%, from the non-cash beneficial conversion expense associated with the secured subordinated notes that matured on August 31, 2009. Interest on our subordinated secured notes issued during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2008 accounts for 22.3% of the change. This change is offset by a gain on disposal of an asset, as well as by decreases in interest on the Sun West Bank term loan during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009.

Net Loss. We had a net loss of $4,960,986 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as compared to a net loss of $6,793,391 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an improvement of approximately 27.0%. The major contributing factor of the improved net loss was the non-cash stock-based compensation expenses for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 of $449,732 as compared to $3,098,126 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, which accounted for 144.5% of the improvement. This was offset by 64.8% for the non-cash beneficial conversion expense incurred during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 of $1,188,042 associated with the secured subordinated notes that matured on August 31, 2009. Another contributing factor, accounting for 43.4% of the improvement in the net loss, was the cost reduction initiative to reduce headcount across the Company. The offsetting increase in expenses or 23.1%, the increase in our interest expense increase on the secured subordinated notes and the increase in professional fees for our application expenses incurred in connection with ARRA for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2008. Normalized net loss without the non-cash compensation expenses in payroll and in professional fees and the non-cash beneficial conversion expense would have been $3,052,300 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $3,695,265 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, representing an improvement of 17.4%. This improvement was the result of our cost reduction initiatives during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009. Our net loss margin improved by 22 percentage points from a net loss of $4,960,986 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a net loss of $6,793,391 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008. After removing the non-cash compensation expenses from payroll, professional fees, and interest expense of $1,908,686 and $3,098,126, respectively, our normalized net loss margin improved by 5 percentage points from a total normalized net loss $3,052,300 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a net loss of $3,695,265 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008.
