Report of Independent Auditors
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
AliphCom:
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of
operations, of stockholders' equity, and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of AliphCom and its subsidiary at December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
AliphCom ('aliph' or the 'Company') was incorporated in the State of California on March 12,
1998. Together with its wholly owned subsidiary the Company designs, develops and markets
lightweight communications headset products under the Jawbone® brand. The Company sells its
products primarily through a global sales channel network, which includes distributors and
traditional retailers.
Through December 31, 2009, the Company has completed approximately $46.0 million of equity
financing since incorporation. In March 2011, the Company issued 7,131,940 shares of Series 4
preferred stock at $3.926 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $28.0 million. In March
2011, the Company also issued 2,025,300 shares of common stock at $0.54 per share for
proceeds of $1.1 million to the purchaser of the Series 4 preferred stock. In June 2011, the
Company issued 5,562,408 shares of Series 5 preferred stock at $7.19113 per share for gross
proceeds of approximately $40.0 million. However, the Company has incurred significant losses
and negative cash flows from operating activities. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the
Company incurred a loss from operations of approximately $15.5 million and negative cash flows
from operating activities of approximately $11.0 million. Operating losses and negative cash flows
from operating activities may continue for the foreseeable future because of the additional costs
and expenses related to product development, promotional activities, and continued expansion of
operations and development of relationships with other businesses.
Management's plans include increasing the Company's revenues, focusing on the Company's fixed
cost base and improving its working capital position to better align with operations, market demand
and current sales levels. However, if projected sales do not materialize, management may reduce
expenses.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company operates a wholly owned sales and customer support subsidiary in the United
Kingdom. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
The functional currency of the Company's subsidiary is the U.S. dollar. Accordingly, assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currency are remeasured into U.S. dollars at current exchange
rates for monetary assets and liabilities and historical exchange rates for nonmonetary assets and
liabilities. Expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during the period. Gains
and losses from foreign currency remeasurement are included in interest and other (expense)
income, net in the consolidated statements of operations and to date have not been material.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions.
These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and
assumptions made by management involve: the assessment of collectability of accounts
receivable, inventory valuations, the determination of accruals, the valuation and useful lives of
long-lived assets, the fair value of the Company's equity instruments and the valuation of deferred
tax asset balances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. and such differences may be
material to the financial statements.

December 31, 2009 and 2008
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from product sales is recognized at the time the product is shipped provided that
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss has transferred to the customer,
the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collection of the related receivable is reasonably
assured. The Company assesses collectability based on a number of factors, including general
economic and market conditions, past transaction history with the customer, and the
creditworthiness of the customer.
The Company recognizes revenue net of estimated sales returns, price protection, and sales
incentives. Upon shipment of the product, the Company reduces revenue for an estimate of
potential future returns, price protection and sales incentives related to the current period revenue.
Management analyzes historical returns, channel inventory levels, current economic trends, new
product introduction timelines and changes in customer demand for the Company's products when
evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for sales returns, price protection and sales incentives.
In late 2009, the Company released its ICON headset product. In connection with the ICON
product, the Company provides firmware updates that may result in additional features and
functionality, on an if-and-when available basis. The firmware updates represent an undelivered
element in the revenue arrangement. In order for revenue to be recognized for the delivered
elements in an arrangement, the Company must be able to establish vendor specific evidence of
fair value ("VSOE") for the undelivered element. The Company had not established VSOE for the
firmware updates as of December 31, 2009. Accordingly, the Company has deferred all revenue
and associated cost of sales relating to sales of its ICON headsets and recognizes both on a
straight-line basis over the estimated economic life of the product, with any loss recognized at the
time of sale.
Sales Incentives
The Company accrues for sales incentives as a marketing expense if it receives an identifiable
benefit in exchange and can reasonably estimate the fair value of the identifiable benefit received.
Otherwise, the sales incentives are recorded as a reduction to revenues. The Company records its
channel marketing costs as a reduction of revenues. The Company records estimated reductions
to revenues for sales incentives upon the later of when the related revenue is recognized or when
the program is offered to the customer or end consumer.
Cash Equivalents
All highly liquid investments with an original or remaining maturity of three months or less at the
date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash
equivalents with major, high credit quality financial institutions. At December 31, 2009 and 2008,
cash equivalents consisted primarily of money market funds and commercial paper.
Deposits
Certain deposits are required by the Company's landlords to guarantee the contractual obligations
under its office lease agreements. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, deposits totaled $92,000
and $73,000, respectively, and were recorded within other long-term assets in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets.

Restricted Cash
At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company maintained $3.8 million and $11.0 million.
respectively, of restricted cash in the form of institutional money market funds and certificates of
deposit to support letters of credit required by the Company's primary inventory supplier.
Restricted cash is recorded within other long-term assets in the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company makes judgments as to its ability to collect outstanding accounts receivable and
provides allowances for accounts receivable when and if collection becomes doubtful. To date, the
Company has not recorded any allowance for doubtful accounts on customer accounts.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, accounts payable, and preferred stock warrant liability. The fair value of the Company's
cash equivalents is determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The
recorded values of the Company's accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their
current fair values due to the relatively short-term nature of these accounts.
Business Risk and Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company's products are concentrated in an industry characterized by rapid technological
advances, changes in customer requirements and evolving regulatory requirements and industry
standards. Any significant delays in the development or introduction of products or services, or any
failure by the Company to anticipate or to respond adequately to technological developments in its
industry, changes in customer requirements or changes in regulatory requirements or industry
standards, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and operating results.
The Company's products are manufactured, assembled and tested by a third-party contractor in
Asia. There is no long-term agreement with the contractor. A significant disruption in the
operations of the contractor would impact the production of the Company's products for a
substantial period of time, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition, and results of operations.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist
primarily of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and trade accounts receivable. Cash and cash
equivalents are deposited with major financial institutions in the United States. Deposits in the
United States may exceed federally insured limits. Management believes that the financial
institutions that hold the Company's deposits are financially credit worthy and, accordingly, minimal
credit risk exists with respect to those balances. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon
demand and, therefore, bear minimal interest rate risk.
The Company's accounts receivable are derived from customers located principally in the United
States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers, does not require
collateral, and maintains allowances for potential credit losses on customers' accounts when
deemed necessary.

Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined using the first-in, first
out method. The Company reduces the value of its inventory for estimated obsolescence or
unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated
market value. Allowances, once established, are not reversed until the related inventory has been
subsequently sold or scrapped.
Property and Equipment, Net
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, as described in the table below.
Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise
disposed of, the cost and the related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from
the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statement of operations.

Capitalized Software Development Costs
Software development costs are included in research and development and are expensed as
incurred. After technological feasibility is established, software development costs are capitalized.
To date, the period between achieving technological feasibility. which the Company has defined as
the establishment of a working model which typically occurs when the beta testing commences,
and the general availability of such software has been short and software development costs
qualifying for capitalization have been insignificant. Accordingly, the Company has not capitalized
any software development costs.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets, such as property and equipment,
when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset or
asset group may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the
Company's ability to recover the carrying value of the asset or asset group from the expected
future pre-tax cash flows, undiscounted and without interest charges, of the related operations. If
these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized
9
EFTA00293541
AliphCom
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2009 and 2008
for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of
impairment requires management to estimate future cash flows and the fair value of long-lived
assets. Through December 31, 2009, the Company has not identified any impairment on its
long-lived assets.
Research and Development Costs
The Company expenses costs related to research, design and development of products to
research and development as incurred. The costs included in research and development primarily
consist of salaries, contractor fees and allocated overhead costs.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes based on the asset and liability method whereby deferred
tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between the financial
reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and
laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a
valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value.
In evaluating the ability to recover its deferred income tax assets the Company considers all
available positive and negative evidence, including its operating results, forecasts of future taxable
income and ongoing tax planning on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis. In the event the Company
was to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of
their net recorded amount, it would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would
reduce the provision for income taxes. Conversely, in the event that all or part of the net deferred
tax assets are determined not to be realizable in the future, an adjustment to the valuation
allowance would be charged to earnings in the period such determination is made.
The Company recognizes and measures benefits for uncertain tax positions using a two-step
approach. The first step is to evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return
by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the tax
position will be sustained upon audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation
processes. For tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon audit, the second
step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be realized
upon settlement. Significant judgment is required to evaluate uncertain tax positions. The
Company evaluates its uncertain tax positions annually. Evaluations are based upon a number of
factors, including changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law, correspondence with tax
authorities during the course of audits and effective settlement of audit issues.
Advertising Costs
Costs related to advertising and promotions of products are expensed to sales and marketing as
incurred. Advertising and promotion expense for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008
was $507,000 and $2.5 million, respectively.
Product Warranty
The Company offers a standard product warranty that the product will operate under normal use for
a period of one year from date of original purchase. The Company shall, at its option, either repair
or replace the defective product. If the Company determines that it is not reasonable to replace the
defective product, the Company may refund the purchase price paid for the product.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2009 and 2008
At the time revenue is recognized, an estimate of future warranty costs is recorded as a component
of cost of revenues. Factors that affect the warranty obligation include product failure rates and
service delivery costs incurred in correcting the product failures. Because the Company's products
are manufactured by a third party manufacturer, in certain cases the Company has recourse to the
third party manufacturer in determining its warranty liability. Product warranty accrual is included
within accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, and its activity for the
years ended December 31.2009 and 2008 was as follows:

Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs
The Company accounts for shipping and handling fees billed to customers as revenues and the
associated shipping and handling costs as cost of revenues. In addition, shipping and handling
costs for inbound freight are included in cost of revenues.
Preferred Stock Warrant Liability
The freestanding warrant related to the Company's preferred stock is classified as a liability on its
consolidated balance sheets. The warrant is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet
date and any change in fair value is recognized as a component of interest and other (expense)
income, net. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the
earlier of the exercise or expiration of the warrant or the completion of a liquidation event, including
the completion of an initial public offering, at which time the preferred stock warrant will be
converted into a warrant to purchase common stock and, accordingly, the liability would be
reclassified to stockholders' equity.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, includes
compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted on or after January 1.
2006 and is based on the grant-date fair value estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing
model. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the statements of operations is based
on options ultimately expected to vest, reduced by the amount of estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures
are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual
forfeitures differ from those estimates. When estimating forfeitures. the Company considers
historic voluntary termination behaviors as well as trends of actual option forfeitures.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation arrangements with nonemployees, using
the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, based on the fair value as these instruments vest.
Accordingly, at each reporting date. the Company revalues the unearned portion of the
stock-based compensation and the resulting change in fair value is recognized in the consolidated
statements of operations over the period the related services are rendered.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued authoritative guidance
related to additional requirements regarding disclosures of fair value measurements. The guidance
requires the gross presentation of activity within the Level 3 fair value measurement roll forward
and details of transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 fair value measurements. It also clarifies two
existing disclosure requirements on the level of disaggregation of fair value measurements and
disclosures on inputs and valuation techniques. The new requirements and guidance are effective
for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the Level 3 roll
forward which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 (including interim
periods within those fiscal years). The Company is currently assessing the potential effect, if any,
on its footnote disclosures.
In October 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on revenue recognition that will become
effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted. Under the
new guidance, tangible products that have software components that are essential to the
functionality of the tangible product will no longer be within the scope of the software revenue
recognition guidance, and software-enabled products will now be subject to other relevant revenue
recognition guidance. Additionally, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on revenue
arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the scope of the software revenue
recognition guidance. Under the new guidance, when vendor specific objective evidence or third
party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the
selling price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the
relative selling price method. The new guidance includes new disclosure requirements on how the
application of the relative selling price method affects the timing and amount of revenue
recognition. The Company is currently assessing the potential effect of adoption, if any, on its
financial statements.
In May 2009, the FASB issued new guidance which establishes general standards of accounting
for, and disclosure of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial
statements are issued. This new guidance is for annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, and:
(i) sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity
should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition in the financial
statements, (ii) identifies the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or
transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and (iii) the
disclosures that should be made about events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet
date. This new guidance provides largely the same framework for the evaluation of subsequent
events which previously existed only in auditing literature. The Company has performed an
evaluation of subsequent events through August 19, 2011, which is the day the financial
statements were issued.
2.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the accounting guidance which defines fair value,
establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands required disclosures about fair value
measurements. Under the standard, fair value refers to the price that would be received to sell an
asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the
market in which the reporting entity transacts. The standard clarifies the principle that fair value
should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or
liability. The impact of adopting this guidance as of January 1, 2008 was not material to the
consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2009 and 2008
The fair value hierarchy requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and
minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company primarily
applies the market approach for recurring fair value measurements. The standard describes three
levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or inputs that are observable or can
be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or
liabilities.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are
significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, those assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on
a recurring basis consisted of the Company's short-term securities it classifies as cash equivalents
and its preferred stock warrant liability. The Company believes that the carrying amounts of its
other financial instruments, including accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current
assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to their short-term
maturities.
The following table presents information about assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a
recurring basis as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and indicates the fair value hierarchy utilized to
determine such fair value.

As of December 31, 2009. the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax
purposes of approximately $12.0 million, which will expire at various dates beginning in 2012
through 2031 if not utilized. The Company also has federal and state research and development
tax credit carryforwards available to offset future tax of approximately $347,000 and $52,000,
respectively. The federal research and development tax credit carryforwards will expire beginning
in 2029. and the state credits carry forward indefinitely.
Utilization of the net operating losses may be subject to substantial annual limitation due to state
ownership change limitations. The annual limitation could result in the expiration of the net
operating losses before utilization.
Management believes that, based on a number of factors, it is more likely than not that the deferred
tax assets will not be realized, and accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been recorded
against the deferred tax assets.

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of the FASB interpretation for the
accounting for uncertainties in income taxes. The company recognizes interest and penalties
related to unrecognized tax benefits within interest and other (expense) income, net in the
accompanying statements of operations. Upon adoption, no adjustment to the Company's existing
income taxes payable balance was necessary. Accrued interest and penalties are included within
accrued liabilities in the balance sheets. There are no uncertainties expected to be resolved in the
next 12 months. All of the Company's tax years remain open to tax examination. The Company is
currently under tax examination for the 2008 U.S. federal tax return.

Lease Commitments
The Company leases office space and software under various noncancelable operating and capital
leases with various expiration dates between April 2010 and November 2015, some of which
contain renewal options. Rent expense under these lease agreements totaled $675,000 and
$460,000 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Under the terms of these agreements, the Company was required to make certain deposits which
are held by a bank for the purpose of guaranteeing the fulfillment of the Company's obligations
under these agreements. If the Company defaults under the terms of the lease agreements, the
lessors will be entitled to use such funds in the amount necessary to cure the default. Deposits are
included in other long-term assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and totaled
$92,000 and $73,000 at December 31. 2009 and 2008, respectively. In November 2010, the
Company also obtained a letter of credit from a financial institution totaling approximately $475,000
to meet obligations related to the Company's principal leased facility.
The Company's principal facility, located in San Francisco, California, consists of approximately
20,000 square feet of leased office and test space, with an initial expiration in 2010 and an option
to renew. During 2010, the Company renewed this operating lease through March 2014. In
connection with the renewal of the lease the Company also leased the first and second floor of the
facility comprising an additional 40,000 square feet. In March 2011, the Company entered into an
arrangement to sublease the second floor of the facility through March 2014. The Company also
leases facilities in Sunnyvale, California and the United Kingdom, which are used for product
development, sales, and marketing. The Sunnyvale lease expires in July 2014 and the United
Kingdom lease expires in June 2016.

drawn against the letter of credit as of December 31, 2008. The letter of credit expired in
May 2009.
In April 2008, the Company obtained a letter of credit from a financial institution totaling
approximately $10.0 million to meet obligations to its contract manufacturer. This agreement was
amended in July 2009 to reduce the amount of the letter of credit to $3.8 million. No amounts have
been drawn against the letter of credit. The letter of credit expired in February 2010.
In November 2010, the Company obtained a letter of credit from a financial institution totaling
approximately $475,000 to meet obligations related to leased office space. No amounts have been
drawn against the letter of credit. The letter of credit expires in November 2015.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
The Company has entered into an inventory-related purchase agreement with its key contract
manufacturer. Under this agreement, 100% of orders within 21 days of delivery are noncancelable.
Beyond 21 days, but up to 78 days, the Company is liable for the cost of materials incurred by the
contract manufacturer for the products ordered, or up to the actual cancellation charges incurred by
the contract manufacturer. For certain components the liability to the Company extends to the lead
time specified in the purchase agreement.

To the extent committed inventory purchases under noncancelable purchase orders are for excess
or obsolete parts or the related inventory is deemed to be in excess of its net realizable value, the
Company records a provision for adverse purchase commitments. Charges are recorded as a
component of cost of sales. In December 2008. the Company recorded a purchase commitment
liability of $5.2 million in connection with its key contract manufacturer. During the year ended
December 31, 2009, the Company paid approximately $2.5 million and reversed $1.6 million
related to this liability and the remaining liability under the purchase commitment of $1.1 million
was paid in June 2010.
Contingencies
From time to time, the Company may have certain contingent liabilities that arise in the ordinary
course of its business activities. The Company accrues contingent liabilities when it is probable
that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. The
Company is involved with the following litigation and other legal matters:
On January 15, 2009, Plantronics, Inc. (n Plantronics") filed a complaint against the Company
alleging that the Company directly and indirectly infringes US Patent No. 5,712,453, and seeking
declaratory relief, unspecified damages, and preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, as well as
a finding that the infringement is willful, and an award of enhanced damages and attorney's fees.
The Company denies any infringement and asserts, among other defenses, that the patent is
invalid and is unenforceable. The Company is unable to predict the outcome of this case or the
range of loss. Accordingly, no amount has been accrued as of December 31, 2009.
The Company is engaged in litigation involving one of the Company's former employees. The
Company is both pursuing claims against the former employee and defending against cross-claims
asserted against the Company. The Parties reached a final settlement agreement in July 2011
wherein the Company agreed to pay $310,000; all claims by all parties have been dismissed with
prejudice. The Company has recorded this amount as accrued litigation expense in the
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009.
During 2009, Plantronics filed suit against certain current and former employees of the Company.
These employees worked at Plantronics prior to being employed by the Company. In general,
each complaint alleged trade secret misappropriation and several related claims that concerned
Plantronics' documents and information alleged to have been brought to the Company by the
former employees of Plantronics. In January 2011, the Company and Plantronics executed a
Memorandum of Understanding ("MOW) setting forth the terms of a settlement. Without admitting
any wrongdoing or violation of law and to avoid the distraction and expense of continued litigation
and the uncertainty of a jury verdict on the merits, the Company agreed to make a one-time lump
sum payment of $5.1 million, which was accrued as litigation expense in the consolidated financial
statements as of December 31, 2009.

In January 2010, Wi-LAN commenced a patent infringement action in the Eastern District of Texas
against a number of defendants, including the Company and its chip supplier CSR alleging
infringement of certain patents held by Wi-LAN (VVi-LAN, Inc. v. Acer, Inc., Case No. 10-CV-
00124). Subsequently Wi-LAN sent correspondence to the Company alleging that the Company's
products infringed on the same patents. The Company filed a declaratory judgment action in the
US District Court for the Northern District of California asserting the invalidity of the patents held by
W-LAN (Aliphcom v. Wi-LAN, Inc., Case No. CV-10-02337). The action filed by the Company was
subsequently transferred to the Eastern District of Texas to be consolidated with the already
pending action. The Company entered into an indemnification agreement with Cambridge Silicon
Radio (*CSR"), the manufacturer of bluetooth chips in the Company's products, with respect to this
action.
Wi-LAN entered a settlement agreement with CSR, which firm provides the chips underlying the
claims against the Company in this matter. The settlement agreement terms extend to protect
CSR's customers. Claims asserted by and against the Company have been dismissed with
prejudice.
In January 2011, the Company filed a declaratory judgment action in the Northern District of
California relating to a third party's purported trademark rights with respect to the 'MyTalk- mark.
MyTalk answered the complaint in February 2011 asserting counterclaims, including trademark
infringement. No procedure beyond initial pleading has yet taken place. The parties have been
ordered to early mediation. The parties mediated and no settlement was reached. Fact discovery
is set to close in September 2011. The Company anticipates filing a motion for summary judgment
in fall 2011. The Company is unable to predict the outcome of this case or the range of loss.
Accordingly, no amount has been accrued as of December 31, 2009.
The Company may from time to time be party to litigation arising in the normal course of business,
including, without limitation, allegations relating to commercial transactions, business relationships
or intellectual property rights. Such claims, even if not meritorious, could result in the expenditure
of significant financial and managerial resources. Litigation in general and intellectual property
litigation in particular, can be expensive and disruptive to normal business operations. Moreover,
the results of legal proceedings are difficult to predict.
Additionally, the Company's sales agreements indemnify customers for any expenses or liability
resulting from alleged or claimed infringements of any United States letter patents of third parties.
However, the Company is not liable for any collateral, incidental or consequential damages arising
out of the patent infringement. The terms of these indemnification agreements are perpetual
commencing after execution of the sales agreement or the date indicated on the order
acknowledgement. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited.
However, to date, the Company has not paid any claims or been required to defend any lawsuits
with respect to any such indemnity claims.

Dividends
Holders of Series 1-A, 1-B, 1-C, 2 and 3 preferred stock are entitled to receive noncumulative
dividends at the per annum rate of 8% of the applicable Original Issue Price per share ('the 8%

any dividend on the common stock. Furthermore, for each Series of preferred stock, no dividends
shall be paid to that Series until the preceding Series has been paid at the 8% rate. The order of
the Series in terms of receiving priority for dividend payment are: Series 3, Series 2, Series 1-C,
and lastly Series 1-A and 1-B as a combined group. After payment of such preferential dividends
on the preferred stock during any year. any further dividends declared or paid during such year
shall be declared and paid ratably on the outstanding preferred stock (on an as converted to

equal to 51.3519 per share, plus any declared but unpaid dividends for such shares. If, upon
occurrence of such event, the assets and funds legally available for distribution among the holders
of the Series 3 preferred stock are insufficient to permit the payment in full to such holders of the
Series 3 liquidation preference amount, then the entire assets and funds of the Company legally
available for distribution are to be distributed ratably among the holders of the Series 3 preferred
stock in proportion to the liquidation preference amount each such holder is otherwise entitled to
receive.
After payment of the full Series 3 preferred stock liquidation preference, holders of the then

stock are insufficient to permit the payment in full to such holders of the Series 2 liquidation
preference amount, then the entire assets and funds of the Company legally available for
distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of the Series 2 preferred stock in
proportion to the liquidation preference amount each such holder is otherwise entitled to receive.

common stock and the Series 2 preferred stock holders on an as-if-converted basis, until such time
as the Series 2 preferred stock holders have received an aggregate amount per share of Series 2
preferred stock not to exceed $0.5331. Thereafter, the remaining assets, if any, shall be distributed
ratably to the holders of the common stock.
Conversion
Each share of Series 1-A preferred stock, Series 1-6 preferred stock, Series 1-C preferred stock,
Series 2 preferred stock and Series 3 preferred stock is convertible into such number of shares of
common stock as is determined by dividing $0.80, $0.86, $0.32921, $0.1777 and $1.3519,
respectively, by the conversion price at the time in effect for each such share of preferred stock.
As of December 31, 2008 and 2009 the conversion price was $0.80, 50.86, $0.32921, S0.1777 and
$1.3519 per share for Series 1-A preferred stock, Series 1-B preferred stock, Series 1-C preferred
stock, Series 2 preferred stock and Series 3 preferred stock, respectively. Conversion is either at
the option of the holder or is automatic upon the closing date of a public offering of the Company's
common stock for which the aggregate offering price is not less than $25.0 million, or upon the
written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series 3 preferred stock. Series 2
preferred stock, and Series 1 (voting together as a single class on an as-converted basis) preferred
stock, voting as a separate class for each series.

Early Exercise of Stock Options
At the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, certain options may be exercisable prior to
vesting in exchange for shares of restricted common stock. Restricted stock is subject to the
Company's repurchase right, under which the Company has the right to buy back any unvested
shares at the lower of the original exercise price or the fair value of the shares on the date of
repurchase in the event of termination of services either voluntarily or involuntarily. Shares subject
to the Company's repurchase right totaled 1,387,003 and 3,391,733 shares at December 31, 2009
and 2008, respectively. If significant, the Company treats cash received from employees for
exercise of unvested options as a refundable deposit within accrued liabilities in its consolidated
balance sheets. Amounts from accrued liabilities are transferred into common stock and additional
paid-in capital as the shares vest. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, refundable deposits related to
the exercise of unvested options were not material to the financial statements.

The Company has computed the aggregate intrinsic value amounts as of December 31. 2009
disclosed in the table above based on the difference between the original exercise price of the
options and management's estimate of the fair value of the Company's common stock at
December 31, 2009 of $0.15 per share. The intrinsic value for out-of-the money options is zero.
The total intrinsic value of options exercised during 2009 and 2008 was $68,000 and $44,000,
respectively. The intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the estimated fair value of
the Company's stock on the date of exercise and the exercise price of the underlying shares.
Stock options granted to nonemployees are included in the above table. Stock-options granted to
nonemployees during 2009 and 2008 represented 589.000 and 3,765,282 shares, respectively.
Nonemployee stock-options to purchase 4.754,741 and 4,180,741 shares were outstanding at
December 31. 2009 and 2008 with a weighted-average exercise price of $0.22 and 50.23 per
share, respectively.

In July 2007, the Company also granted an option to purchase 9,275,940 shares of common stock
to an employee at an exercise price of $0.03 per share outside of the 2000 Plan. At December 31,
2009, there are no remaining outstanding options that were granted outside the 2000 Plan.
Exercise of Stock Options for Promissory Note
During 2007, the Company issued 5,998,008 shares of common stock to an officer of the Company
in exchange for a full recourse promissory note in the amount of $180,000. The outstanding
principal amount is due on September 17, 2011. Interest on the note accrues at an annual rate of
4.82%. The note receivable has been classified as a reduction of stockholders' equity.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company estimated the fair value of each option award on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model. In applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model, the
Company's determination of fair value of the share-based payment award on the date of grant is
affected by the Company's estimated fair value of common shares, as well as assumptions
regarding a number of subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the
Company's expected stock price volatility over the term of the stock options and the employees'
actual and projected stock option exercise and pre-vesting employment termination behaviors.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation arrangements with nonemployees, using
the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, based on the fair value as these instruments vest.
Accordingly, at each reporting date, the Company revalues the uneamed portion of the stock-
based compensation and the resulting change in fair value is recognized in the consolidated
statements of operations over the period the related services are rendered.
During 2009 and 2008, the Company recorded 532,000 and 5100,000, respectively, of
compensation expense in connection with common stock options granted to nonemployees. The
assumptions used to calculate the fair value of nonemployee options were the same as the
employee assumptions except the expected life is considered to be the lesser of the remaining
contractual life of the option or ten years and the related volatility and risk-free interest rate is
adjusted accordingly.
For 2009 and 2008 the main variables used in applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model
were determined as follows:
•
Expected Term — represents the period that the Company's stock-based awards are
expected to be outstanding and is determined using the simplified method described in the
Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 107, as amended by SAB 110, Share-Based Payment.
•
Expected Volatility— based on comparable public company volatility for similar stock-based
award terms.
•
Expected Dividend — zero, as the Company has never paid dividends and has no plans to
pay dividends.
•
Risk-Free Interest Rate — based on the U.S. Treasury zero coupon issues in effect at the time
of grant for periods corresponding with the expected term of the stock option.

December 31, 2009 and 2008
The stock options were granted with an exercise price equal to the estimated fair value of the
underlying common stock on the date of grant as determined by the Company's board of directors.
In the absence of a public trading market, the Company's board of directors considered numerous
objective and subjective factors, including information provided by an outside valuation firm to
determine its best estimate of the fair value of the Company's common stock as of each valuation
date. Accordingly, the following assumptions were used to value options granted during 2009 and
2008:

The weighted-average fair value of options on the date of grant was $0.08 and $0.15 per share for
options granted during 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Employee stock-based compensation expense recognized in 2009 and 2008 was calculated based
on stock awards ultimately expected to vest and, therefore, has been reduced for estimated
forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent
periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.
At December 31, 2009, the Company had $1.1 million of total unrecognized compensation
expense, net of estimated forfeitures that will be recognized over a weighted-average period of
approximately 2.7 years.
