Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Accounting Policies

Business

USA Technologies, Inc. (the "Company", "We" or "Our") was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in January 1992. The Company is a leading supplier of cashless, remote management, reporting and energy management solutions serving the unattended Point of Sale market. Our networked devices and associated services enable the owners and operators of everyday, stand-alone, distributed assets, such as vending machines, kiosks, personal computers, photocopiers, and laundry equipment, the ability to remotely monitor, control and report on the results of these distributed assets, as well as the ability to offer their customers cashless payment options. As a result of the acquisition of the assets of Bayview Technology Group, LLC ("Bayview") in July 2003, our Company also manufactures and sells energy management products which reduce the electrical power consumption of equipment, such as refrigerated vending machines and glass front coolers, thus reducing the electrical energy costs associated with operating this equipment.

Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of USA Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2007. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2008. The balance sheet at June 30, 2007 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

The Company has incurred losses from its inception through June 30, 2007 and losses have continued through September 2007 and are expected to continue during fiscal year 2008. The Company's ability to meet its future obligations is dependent upon the success of its products and services in the marketplace and the available capital resources. Until the Company's products and services can generate sufficient operating revenues, the Company will be required to use its cash and cash equivalents on hand and available-for-sale securities as discussed below as well as raise capital to meet its cash flow requirements including the issuance of Common Stock (Note 4) and the exercise of outstanding Common Stock warrants (Note 5).

Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Stitch Networks Corporation ("Stitch") and USAT Capital Corp LLC (“USAT Capital”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

1. Accounting Policies (Continued)

Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents represent all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are comprised of certificates of deposit and a money market fund. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which may exceed federally insured limits at times.

Available-For-Sale Securities

The Company accounts for investments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". Management determines the appropriate classifications of securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). If the investment sustains an other-than-temporary decline in fair value, the investment is written down to its fair value by a charge to earnings.

As of September 30, 2007, available-for-sales securities consisted of auction market securities. There was no unrealized gain (loss) as of September 30, 2007.

Inventory

Inventory consists of finished goods and packaging materials. The Company's inventory is stated at the lower of cost (average cost basis) or market.

Income Taxes

No provision for income taxes has been made in the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 given the Company’s losses in 2007 and 2006 and available net operating loss carryforwards. A benefit has not been recorded as the realization of the net operating losses is not assured and the timing in which the Company can utilize its net operating loss carryforwards in any year or in total may be limited by provisions of the Internal Revenue Code regarding changes in ownership of corporations.

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No.48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No.109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No.109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. FIN48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company adopted FIN48 effective July1, 2007 and there was no material affect on our results of operations or financial position.

1. Accounting Policies (Continued)

Loss Per Common Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) applicable to common shares by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) applicable to common shares by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect (unless such effect is anti-dilutive) of potential common shares. No exercise of stock options, purchase rights, stock purchase warrants, or the conversion of senior notes, debentures, preferred stock, or cumulative preferred dividends was assumed during the periods presented because the assumed exercise of these securities would be anti-dilutive.

Shared-Based Payment

On July 1, 2005, the Company adopted FAS123(R) “Share-Based Payment” which establishes standards for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. This standard requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. There were no common stock options granted during the quarter ended September 30, 2007. The Company recorded stock compensation expense of $1,587,355 related to Common Stock grants and the vesting of shares previously granted to employees and $30,277 related to the vesting of Common Stock options during the quarter ended September 30, 2007.

3. Senior Notes and Long-Term Debt

As of September 30, 2007 there were no outstanding Senior Notes as all of the remaining Senior Note balances were repaid during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007.

As of September 30, 2006, the outstanding balance of Senior Notes was $7,801,824. Debt discount and other issuance costs associated with the Senior Notes were amortized to interest expense over the life of the Senior Notes. Total charges to interest for amortization of debt discount and other issuance costs were $256,985 for the three months ended September 30, 2006.

During July 2007, the Company entered into a loan agreement for $150,355 with a financial institution bearing interest at 12% that was collaterized by $169,420 of the Finance Receivables. The Company agreed to make 32 monthly payments of $5,826, which include interest and principal, from the proceeds received from the Finance Receivables. During July 2007, the Company also entered into a loan agreement for $89,385 with the same financial institution bearing interest at 12% that was collaterized by $105,074 of the Finance Receivables. The Company agreed to make 32 monthly payments of $3,278, which include interest and principal, from the proceeds received from the Finance Receivables.

As of September 30, 2007, $297,382 and $351,259 of the current and long-term Finance Receivables, respectively, are collateral for the outstanding balances of loans, of which $247,594 and $234,534 is classified as current and long-term debt, respectively.

4. Common Stock

On September 25, 2006, the Company entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “2006-B Common Stock Agreement”) with Steve Illes. Mr. Illes agreed to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock with an aggregate purchase price not to exceed $15,000,000. Under the 2006-B Common Stock Agreement, the Company has the right at any time to require Mr. Illes to purchase Common Stock from the Company at the lower of: (i) $30.00 per share; or (ii) 90% of the closing bid price per share on the date prior to the date of the delivery by the Company to Mr. Illes of notice of his obligation to purchase. The Company can require Mr. Illes to purchase shares only if the shares have been registered by the Company for resale by Mr. Illes under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). On October 20, 2006 and July 9, 2007 the Company filed a registration statement under the 1933 Act that included 1,000,000 and 800,000 shares of Common Stock, respectively. During any calendar month, Mr. Illes cannot be required by the Company to purchase Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price in excess of $800,000. The 2006-B Common Stock Agreement terminates August 30, 2009. During the three months ended September 30, 2007, the Company issued shares of Common Stock under the 2006-B Common Stock Agreement for total gross proceeds of $3,492,300, net of issuance costs of $1,410.

On February 12, 2007, the Company adopted the Long-Term Equity Incentive Program (the “Plan”) for each of George R. Jensen, Jr., Stephen P. Herbert, and David M. DeMedio. Based upon the financial results of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the target goal (100%) relating to revenues was met and the minimum target goals relating to gross profit and EBITDA were not met. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, and excludes non-cash stock payments/awards and stock options granted to officers and Board members. Substantially all of the e-Port units sold during fiscal year 2007 consisted of units pertaining to the MasterCard PayPass seeding program with substantially reduced selling prices which resulted in reduced gross profit and EBITDA. Management’s goal was to have the maximum number of units deployed in the field as quickly as possible. The Compensation Committee agreed with management that given the current stage of the Company’s business, it was more beneficial to the Company to maximize the number of e-Ports in the field as soon as possible.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

4. Common Stock (Continued)

As a result, on September 21, 2007, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the selling price of all the e-Ports sold during the fiscal year be “normalized” to the current retail price. This normalization resulted in increased proforma revenues, gross profit and EBITDA for the e-Port units sold in the MasterCard PayPass seeding program. The Compensation Committee also recommended that the executive officers be given the option to elect to satisfy certain minimum statutory tax withholding obligations for the restricted stock bonuses previously awarded and issued to the executives under their employment agreements by reducing the number of Common Shares otherwise issuable to them under the Plan. The Board of Directors approved the recommendations of the Compensation Committee.

As a result of the normalization, certain target hurdles were met resulting in the vesting of a total of 241,249 shares under the Plan for the fiscal year rather than a total of 101,578 shares prior to the normalization. The value of the number of the shares of executives may apply to tax withholding was in excess of the minimum statutory obligation and, as a result the Plan is classified as a liability award rather than an equity award. As such, the Company reclassified the $599,311 related to the 101,578 shares that was previously recorded in Common Stock to a short-term share-based payment liability. As the price of the Company’s shares was $8.45 on the date of the approval of the normalization, a charge of $1,180,220 was also recorded to compensation expense, related to the additional 139,671 additional shares, with a corresponding amount to the short-term share-based payment liability for a total share-based payment liability of $1,779,531 as of September 21, 2007. On September 28, 2007, as the Company’s share price was $8.38, the total share-based payment liability related to fiscal year 2007 was $1,769,754 ($599,311 compensation expense in fiscal year 2007 and $1,170,443 in the three months ended September 30, 2007). Of the 241,249 shares vested for fiscal year 2007, the Company issued 225,249 shares of Common Stock and the remaining 16,000 shares were redeemed by the executives to settle tax withholding obligations paid by the Company totaling $134,080 in connection with the restricted stock bonuses previously awarded and issued to them under their employment agreements. As a result of the fact that a portion of the remaining 225,249 shares are subject to redemption, the Company has recorded the entire fair value of these remaining shares as a short-term share-based payment liability as of September 30, 2007 totaling $1,635,674. The Company will continue to remeasure this share-based liability until final settlement with changes in the fair value being charged to compensation expense. Final settlement will occur upon the exercise or lapse of the redemption provision on December 30, 2007 and the fair value of the remaining shares will be charged to Common Stock.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

4. Common Stock (Continued)

In conjunction with the Plan award for fiscal year 2008, the Company recorded compensation expense of $320,988 and a corresponding amount to the short-term accrued shared-based payment liability for the three month period ended September 30, 2007. This amount was based on management’s estimate of the probability of meeting the target goals and fair value of the Company’s stock of $8.38 at the end of the reporting period, September 28, 2007. Management will update this estimate and remeasure the short-term share-based payment liability at the end of each reporting period until settlement. The final measurement and charge to compensation expense will be determined on the date of settlement.

5. Common Stock Warrants

During the quarter ended September 30, 2007, the Company received $166,330 upon the exercise of 25,989 Common Stock warrants at an exercise price of $6.40 per share.

As of September 30, 2007, there were 1,678,186 Common Stock warrants outstanding, all of which were exercisable at exercise prices ranging from $6.40 to $20 per share.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

Various legal actions and claims occurring in the normal course of business are pending or may be instituted or asserted in the future against the Company. The Company does not believe that the resolution of these matters will have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

7. Subsequent Events (Continued)

On October 17, 2007, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (collectively, the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with institutional investors (“Buyers”). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company sold to the Buyers a total of 2,142,871 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (“Shares”) at a price of $7.00 per Share, for gross proceeds of $15,000,097. All of the Buyers qualified as accredited investors as such term is defined in Rule 501 under the Act. The Shares issued by the Company to the Buyers have not been registered under the Act. The offer and sale of the Shares by the Company to the Buyers was exempt from the registration requirements of the Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. William Blair & Co., LLC (“Blair”) acted as the exclusive placement agent for the private placement. As compensation for its services, the Company paid Blair a fee equal to eight percent of the total consideration received by the Company as a result of the offering. The fee is comprised of seven percent in cash and one percent in the form of five-year warrants for the purchase of the Company’s Common Stock at $7.70 per share. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement entered into between the Company and each Buyer, the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) covering the resale of the Shares within thirty days.

The Registration Rights Agreement provides that if the registration statement is not declared effective within ninety days from the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement (and provided that the registration is not subject to a full review by the SEC), the Company is required to pay to the Buyers one percent of the aggregate subscription price paid by the Buyers for every thirty days beyond such ninety day period that the registration statement is not effective. The maximum aggregate penalty payable to the Buyers is twelve percent of the aggregate subscription price paid by the Buyers. In accordance with FSP EITF 00-19-2, the Company determined that the likelihood of being required to remit any payments was not probable and thus did not record a liability related to this contingent payment arrangement.

Those statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the statements. The forward looking information is based on various factors and was derived using numerous assumptions. Important factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those projected, include, for example (i) the ability of the Company to generate sufficient sales to generate operating profits, or to sell products at a profit, (ii) the ability of the Company to raise funds in the future through sales of securities, (iii) whether the Company is able to enter into binding agreements with third parties to assist in product or network development, (iv) the ability of the Company to commercialize its developmental products, or if actually commercialized, to obtain commercial acceptance thereof, (v) the ability of the Company to compete with its competitors to obtain market share, (vi) the ability of the Company to obtain sufficient funds through operations or otherwise to repay its debt obligations or to fund development and marketing of its products, (vii) the ability of the Company to obtain approval of its pending patent applications or the risk that its technologies would infringe patents owned by others, (viii) the ability of the Company to satisfy its trade obligations included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, (ix) the ability of the Company to predict or estimate its future quarterly or annual revenues given the developing and unpredictable market for its products and the lack of established revenues, (x) the ability of the Company to retain key customers as a significant portion of its revenues is derived from a limited number of key customers, and (xi) the ability of a key customer to reduce or delay purchasing products from the Company. Although the Company believes that the forward looking statements contained herein are reasonable, it can give no assurance that the Company’s expectations will be met.

Results of Operations

Three months ended September 30, 2007

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2007 were $3,355,656 compared to $2,008,897 for the corresponding three-month period in the previous fiscal year. This $1,346,759 or 67% increase was primarily due to an increase in equipment sales of approximately $979,000 and license and transaction fees of approximately $367,000. The increase in equipment sales was due to an increase in sales of approximately $1,109,000 in e-Port vending equipment sales, primarily related to the MasterCard PayPass Participation Agreement entered into among the Company, Coca-Cola Enterprises and Mastercard Worldwide agreement (the “CCE/MasterCard Agreement”), offset by a decrease of approximately $131,000 in business center sales. The increase in license and transaction fees was due to the increase in the number of e-Port units on our USALive® network, primarily as a result of the CCE/MasterCard Agreement.

In regards to license fees, as of September 30, 2007, the Company had approximately 19,000 devices connected to our USALive® network as compared to approximately 9,000 devices as of September 30, 2006. During the month of October 2007, the Company added approximately 5,000 devices for a total of approximately 24,000 connected devices as of October 30, 2007.

In regards to transaction fees, during the quarter ended September 30, 2007, the Company processed approximately 1.8 million transactions totaling over $7.3 million as compared to approximately 650 thousand transactions totaling over $4.3 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2006, an increase of 177% in transaction volume and 70% in dollars processed.

Cost of equipment for the period was $2,272,492, compared to $1,131,159 for the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year. The increase of $1,141,333 was primarily due to an increase in vending equipment sales relating primarily to our seeding initiative under the CCE/MasterCard Agreement.

Cost of services for the period was $563,988, compared to $262,202 for the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year. The increase of $301,786 was primarily due to the increase in the number of e-Ports connected to our USALive network relating primarily to our seeding initiative under the CCE/MasterCard Agreement.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2007 was $519,176, compared to gross profit of $615,536 for the corresponding three-month period in the previous fiscal year. This 16% decrease is primarily due to an increase in sales of our vending products as part of a seeding program. Specifically, we lowered the price of our e-Ports at or near cost pursuant to our seeding program under the CCE/MasterCard Agreement that had the effect of reducing our margins. Product pricing under this program does not reflect the Company’s current retail pricing.

Selling, general and administrative expense of $5,392,034 increased by $2,044,978 or 61% primarily due to an increase in compensation expense of approximately $1,757,000 and an increase in consulting and outside service fees of approximately $289,000. The increase in compensation expense is primarily comprised of an increase in salaries expense of approximately $342,000 due to an increase in the number of employees and an increase in bonus expense of approximately $1,403,000 primarily due to non-cash charges from our Long-term Equity Incentive Program. Specifically, the Company recorded $1,170,443 in the three months ended September 30, 2007 attributable to 139,671 of the shares earned by our executive officers under this program on account of fiscal year 2007 as well as $320,988 attributable to the vesting of shares for the 2008 fiscal year.

Interest expense of $38,396 decreased by $515,969 or 93% due to the repayment of all senior notes during fiscal year 2007.

The quarter ended September 30, 2007 resulted in a net loss of $5,262,989 (approximately $2.1 million of non-cash charges) compared to a net loss of $3,680,314 (approximately $1.0 million of non-cash charges) for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.

Three months ended September 30, 2006

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2006 were $2,008,897 compared to $1,363,886 for the corresponding three-month period in the previous fiscal year. This $645,011 or 47% increase was primarily due to an increase in equipment sales of approximately $598,000 and license and transaction fees of approximately $47,000. The increase in equipment sales was due to an increase in sales of approximately $150,000 of energy conservation equipment, approximately $56,000 in sales of business centers, and approximately $482,000 in e-Port vending equipment sales, primarily to MasterCard International in connection with the Philadelphia Coke initiative, offset by a decrease of approximately $90,000 in laundry equipment.

Cost of equipment for the period was $1,131,159, compared to $845,372 for the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year.

Cost of services for the period was $262,202, compared to $203,587 for the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $615,536, compared to gross profit of $314,927 for the corresponding three-month period in the previous fiscal year. This 95% increase is primarily due to the increased margins on our energy equipment sales due to the reduced costs of producing the equipment overseas.

Table of Contents

Selling, general and administrative expense of $3,347,056 increased by $885,957 or 36% primarily due to an increase in compensation expense of approximately $568,000, an increase in legal fees of approximately $134,000, an increase in public relations expenses of approximately $74,000, an increase in product development costs of approximately $56,000 and an increase in consultant costs of approximately $44,000. Compensation expense increased primarily due to an increase in salaries expense of approximately $199,000 due to an increase in the number of employees, an increase in bonus expense of approximately $301,000 due to non-cash charges from common stock and common stock option grants to our executive officers, and an increase in sales commissions of $87,000 due to an increase in equipment sales.

Interest expense of $554,365 decreased by $107,034 or 16% due to a reduction in conversions to senior notes of approximately $197,000 and a reduction in total senior note debt outstanding due to principal repayments.

The quarter ended September 30, 2006 resulted in a net loss of $3,680,314 (approximately $1.0 million of non-cash charges) compared to a net loss of $3,196,872 (approximately $0.7 million of non-cash charges) for the quarter ended September 30, 2005.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the three months ended September 30, 2007, net cash of $4,938,533 was used by operating activities, primarily due to the net loss of $5,262,989 offset by non-cash charges totaling $2,123,271 for transactions involving the vesting and issuance of Common Stock to employees, transactions involving stock options, bad debt expense and the depreciation and amortization of assets. In addition to these non-cash charges, the Company’s net operating assets increased by $1,798,815 primarily due to increases in accounts and finance receivables, and prepaid expenses and a decrease in accounts payable, offset by a decrease in inventory and an increase in accrued expenses.

Proceeds from financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2007 provided $3,813,286 of funds, which were necessary to support cash used in operating and investing activities. Net proceeds of $3,651,620 were realized from the issuance of Common Stock and net proceeds of $239,740 were realized from the issuance of long-term debt, offset by cash used to repay long-term debt ($78,074).

The Company has incurred losses since inception. Cumulative losses through September 30, 2007 amounted to approximately $151,000,000. The Company has continued to raise capital through equity offerings to fund operations.

During the year ended June 30, 2007, cash used in operating activities was approximately $1,140,000 per month. Using the prior fiscal year as a basis for estimating cash requirements for the year ending June 30, 2008 (which assumes a static level of revenues), cash requirements for the fiscal year 2008, including requirements for capital expenditures and repayments of long-term debt, would be approximately $14,600,000.

Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2007 the Company had approximately $3,943,000 of cash and cash equivalents on hand and $6,350,000 of available-for-sale securities.

From October 1 to November 2, 2007 the Company issued 195,360 shares of Common Stock under the 2006-B Common Stock Agreement for total gross proceeds of $1,222,500. As of November 2, 2007, the remaining total aggregate purchase price of shares is $958,457 is available and can be purchased under the 2006-B Common Stock Agreement.

As set forth in Note 7 to the Condensed Financial Statements, during October 2007, the Company received gross proceeds of $15,000,097 in connection with a private placement offering of Common Stock to institutional investors.

Funding sources in place to meet the Company's cash requirements for the year ending June 30, 2008 are primarily comprised of approximately $3,943,000 of cash and cash equivalents on hand and $6,350,000 of available-for-sale securities as of September 30, 2007, $958,457 in proceeds that are available under the 2006-B Common Stock Agreement referred to above, the proceeds received by the Company in October 2007 from the private placement offering of Common Stock referred to above, and anticipated proceeds from the future exercises of warrants (1,475,263 of which are currently exercisable and in the money as of the date hereof and could generate proceeds of $9,441,683), for total resources of approximately $35,693,000. Of the foregoing warrants, 833,333 warrants (which are exercisable at $6.40 per share for an aggregate of $5,333,333) can not be exercised by the holder thereof to the extent the exercise would result in the holder thereof being the beneficial owner of more than 9.99% of our shares. The holder of these 833,333 warrants is currently the beneficial owner of approximately 13% of our shares, and therefore these warrants could not be exercised by the holder unless and until its ownership of our shares is reduced. The Company believes these existing sources will provide sufficient funds to meet its cash requirements through at least June 30, 2008.

During the 2008 fiscal year, the Company intends to continue to attempt to improve its business model and financial results. In this regard, we are marketing an e-Port rental program under which our customer would not purchase the unit from us but would pay a higher monthly service fee in order to compensate us for the use of the unit. Under this arrangement, the Company would retain ownership of the unit. Management believes that this rental business model would accelerate the adoption of its e-Port technology. The Company is also considering the possibility of becoming a credit card processor (rather than a merchant as is currently the case). We believe that becoming a credit card processor would enable us to increase our processing revenues and gross profits. Finally, during the first quarter of the 2008 fiscal year, the Company entered into a contract with a manufacturer under which the manufacturer would attempt to produce for us a lower cost e-Port device. If successful, we have committed to purchase at least $3,600,000 of the new e-Port device from this manufacturer over an eighteen month period.
