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, solo and woo, 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.
As discussed in Note i to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted new accounting
rules for revenue recognition in 2010.

The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
AliphCom ("Aliphs 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 and wireless speakers under the Jawbone® brand.
The Company sells its products primarily through a global sales channel network, which includes
distributors and traditional retailers.
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 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 July and December 2011, the Company issued 7,578,781
shares of Series 5 preferred stock at $7.19113 per share for proceeds of $52.8 million, net of
issuance costs of approximately $1.7 million. In December 2011, the Company issued 3,150,582
shares of Series 2 and 2,978,707 shares of common stock, each at $3.96752 per share for total
proceeds of $24.3 million. However, the Company has incurred significant losses and negative
cash flows from operating activities. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company
incurred a loss from operations of approximately $14.4 million and negative cash flows from
operating activities of approximately $9.5 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 be
required to reduce expenses.
Basis of Presentation
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 Company has made certain reclassifications to the prior period financial statements in order to
conform to the current period presentation.
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.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America ('GAAP-) 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: sales returns reserve, the assessment
of collectability of accounts receivable, inventory valuations, the determination of accruals, the
estimation of the 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.
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.
The related reserves for sales returns, price protection and sales incentives are recorded in the
current liabilities. Management analyzes historical returns, 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.
Revenue Recognition for Arrangements With Multiple Deliverables
In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ('FASB") amended the accounting
standards for revenue recognition to remove tangible products containing software components
and nonsoftware components that function together to deliver the product's essential functionality
from the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance.
In October 2009, the FASB also amended the accounting standards for multiple deliverable
revenue arrangements to:
•
provide updated guidance on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the deliverables in an
arrangement should be separated, and how the considered should be allocated:
•
require an entity to allocate revenue in an arrangement using best estimated selling price
('BESP") of deliverables if a vendor does not first have vendor-specific objective evidence
("VSOE') of selling price or secondly does not have third-party evidence (—ME) of selling
price; and
•
eliminate the use of the residual method and require an entity to allocate revenue using the
relative selling price method.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
The Company elected to early adopt this accounting guidance on January 1, 2010 on a prospective
basis for applicable transaction originating or materially modified after December 31, 2009. As a
result, substantially all of the Company's products are no longer within the scope of the software
revenue recognition guidance.
For multi-element arrangements that include hardware products containing undelivered software
elements that relate to the hardware product's firmware, the Company allocates revenue to all
deliverables based on their relative selling prices. In such circumstances, the Company uses a
hierarchy to determine the selling price to be used for allocating revenue to deliverables:
(i) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value, (ii) third-party evidence of selling price, and
(iii) best estimate of the selling price. VSOE generally exists only when the Company sells the
deliverable separately and is the price actually charged by the Company for that deliverable. TPE
is determined based on competitor prices for similar deliverables when sold separately. BESPs
reflect the Company's best estimates of what the selling prices of elements would be if they were
sold regularly on a stand-alone basis.
For sales of Icon products late in 2009, and Jambox and Era products beginning in January 2010,
the Company has indicated it may from time-to-time provide future unspecified updates and
features to the firmware bundled with each of these hardware products free of charge to customers
via the Company's MyTalk platform. The Company has identified two deliverables in arrangements
involving the sale of these devices. The first deliverable is the hardware and firmware essential to
the functionality of the hardware device delivered at the time of sale. The second deliverable is the
embedded right included with the purchase of these devices to receive on a when-and-if-available
basis, future unspecified updates and features relating to the product's firmware.
The Company allocates revenue between these deliverables using the relative selling price
method. Because the Company has neither VSOE nor TPE for these deliverables, the allocation of
revenue has been based on the Company's BESP. Amounts allocated to the delivered hardware
and the related essential firmware are recognized at the time of sale provided the other conditions
for revenue recognition have been met. Amounts allocated to the embedded unspecified update
rights are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated lives of each of these
devices, which is 21 months. Cost of sales related to delivered hardware and related essential
firmware, including estimated warranty costs, are recognized at the time of sale. Costs incurred to
provide when-and-if updates are recognized as operating expenses as incurred.
The Company's process for determining its BESP for deliverables without VSOE or TPE considers
consumer behaviors as well as the Company's internal pricing model. The Company believes its
customers, particularly consumers, would be reluctant to buy unspecified firmware update rights
related to Jawbone devices. This view is primarily based on the fact that unspecified update rights
do not obligate the Company to provide upgrades at a particular time or at all, and do not specify to
customers which upgrades or features will be delivered. Therefore, the Company has concluded
that if it were to sell update rights on a standalone basis, the selling prices would be relatively low.
Key factors considered by the Company in developing the BESP for MyTalk update rights include
market trends for pricing of mobile updates such as smartphone apps, the Company's historical
pricing practices, the nature of the update rights (e.g., unspecified and when-and-if-available), and
the relative BESP of the update rights as compared to the total selling price of the product. BESP
for the hardware and essential firmware as delivered at the time of sale was determined by the
Company's internal pricing practices, which take into account pricing trends in the consumer
electronics market as well as the requirement for an acceptable profit margin.

EFTA00293571

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
The Company's BESP for the unspecified firmware update rights are as follows: 3.3% of Icon
sales, 1.7% of Jambox sales and 2.6% of Era sales. Amounts allocated to the embedded
unspecified firmware update rights associated with these Jawbone products are recognized on a
straight-line basis over the estimated life of the product, 21 months in all cases. The Company
regularly reviews its basis for establishing BESP.
Total net revenues as reported and adjusted total net revenues that would have been reported
during the year ended December 31, 2009, if the transactions were subject to current accounting
guidance, are shown in the following table (in thousands):
Year Ended December 31, 2009
Net revenue, as reported
$
66,789
Net revenue, as adjusted
70,066
The impact to total net revenues during the year ended December 31, 2010, due to the adoption of
the accounting guidance, was primarily attributable to net product revenues. This will generally
result in an increase in the amount of upfront product revenue recognized and a decrease in
services revenue recognized.
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 financial institutions which are Al or A+ rated. At December 31, 2010 and 2009,
cash equivalents consisted primarily of money market funds.
Deposits
Certain deposits are required by the Company's landlords to guarantee the contractual obligations
under its office lease agreements. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, deposits totaled $358
thousand and $92 thousand, respectively, and were recorded within other long-term assets in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Restricted Cash
At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company maintained $475 thousand and $3.8 million,
respectively, of restricted cash in the form of institutional money market funds and certificates of
deposit. The December 31, 2010 balance was to support a letter of credit required by the
Company's lessor as part of the lease agreement and is recorded in prepaid and other current
assets on the balance sheet. The December 31, 2009 balance was to support letters of credit
required by the Company's primary inventory supplier and is recorded within other long-term assets
in the 2009 consolidated balance sheets. The letters of credit requirement by the Company's
supplier was relinquished in March 2010.

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. 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 financial institutions in the United States which are Al or A+ rated.
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 nsk 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.
As of and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, customers representing 10% or more
of the accounts receivable balance and/or revenues were as follows:

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.

Computer equipment

Software

Leasehold improvements
The shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful
lives of the improvements of 1-2 years
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
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, 2010, 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 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, 2010 and 2009
was $892 thousand and $507 thousand, 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.

December 31, 2010 and 2009
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, 2010 and 2009 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
2009 consolidated balance sheet. The warrant was exercised in June 2010 and subsequently
recorded as Series 2 preferred stock on the 2010 consolidated balance sheet. The warrant was
subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date and an increase in fair value of $3 thousand
was recognized in 2010 as a component of interest and other expense, net.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, 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 Adopted Accounting Standards
In January 2010, the FASB issued 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). As of December 31,
2010, this guidance has no effect on the Company's financial statements or disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In 2011, the FASB issued new disclosure guidance related to the presentation of the Statement of
Comprehensive Income. This guidance eliminates the current option to report other
comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated statement of stockholders' equity.
The requirement to present reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive
income on the face of the consolidated statements of income has been deferred. The Company
will adopt this accounting standard upon its effective date for periods beginning on or after
December 15, 2011, and this adoption will not have any impact on the Company's financial position
or results of operations but will impact the financial statements presentation.
2.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
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 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, 2010 and 2009, 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.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
The 2010 effective tax rate of 4.1% differs from the statutory rate of 39.6% primarily due to a full
valuation allowance that offsets the current year tax benefit that would have otherwise been
recorded. The 4.1% benefit is primarily the result of a 2010 carryback claim that the Company
intends to file as a result of the 2010 federal income tax loss.
As of December 31. 2010, the Company had approximately $10 million and $25.8 million of federal
and state net operating loss carryforwards, respectively. Such carryforwards will expire at various
dates beginning in 2014 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
$1.4 million and $200 thousand, respectively. The federal research and development tax credit
carryforwards will expire beginning in 2020, and the state carryforwards 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 ASC No. 740, Income
Taxes, for unrecognized tax benefits. ASC No. 740 requires a more-likely-than-not threshold for
financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in
a tax return.
Upon adoption, the Company made no adjustment to beginning retained earnings. Accrued
interest and penalties are included within accrued liabilities in the balance sheets. The Company
recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within interest and other
(expense) income, net in the accompanying statements of operations. 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

Commitments and Contingencies
Lease Commitments
The Company leases office space and software under various noncancelable operating and capital
leases with various expiration dates between April 2010 and June 2016, some of which contain
renewal options. Rent expense under these lease agreements totaled $1.0 million and $675
thousand for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
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
$358 thousand and $92 thousand at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. In
November 2010, the Company also obtained a letter of credit from a financial institution totaling
approximately $475 thousand 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.

In April 2008. the Company obtained a letter of credit from a financial institution totaling

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 thousand 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 52.5 million and reversed S1.6 million
related to this liability and the remaining liability under the purchase commitment of $1.1 million
was paid in June 2010. As of December 31, 2010, the outstanding purchase commitment liability
pertaining to new commitments in 2010 was $446 thousand.
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. (`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 denied any infringement and asserted. among other defenses, that the patent was
invalid and is unenforceable. On March 23, 2012. the case was dismissed and patent 5.712,453
was declared invalid. Accordingly, no amount has been accrued as of December 31, 2010.
The Company was engaged in litigation involving one of the Company's former employees. The
Company was 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 thousand, all claims by all parties have been
dismissed with prejudice. The Company recorded this amount as accrued litigation expense in the
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009. No activity was recorded
in 2010 and the amount was remitted to the former employee in 2011.
19
EFTA00293582
AliphCom
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 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 ('MOLY) 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. No activity was recorded in 2010 and the amount was
remitted to Plantronics in 2011.
In January 2011, the Company filed a declaratory judgment action in the Northern District of
Califomia relating to a third party's purported trademark rights with respect to the 'MyTalk- mark.
The defendant answered the complaint in February 2011 asserting counterclaims, including
trademark infringement. No procedure beyond initial pleading has yet taken place. In
September 2011, both parties entered a settlement agreement whereby the Company remitted
$157 thousand to the third party and the case was dismissed, Subsequent to the settlement
agreement, the disputed trademark was assigned to the Company. No amount was recorded for
this settlement at December 31, 2010.
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.

involuntary, any distribution or payment shall be made in the following priority order.
Holders of the then outstanding Series 3 preferred stock are entitled to a liquidation preference
equal to $1.3519 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
outstanding Series 2 preferred stock are entitled to a liquidation preference equal to $0.1777 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 2 preferred
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

After payment of the full Series 3 preferred stock and Series 2 preferred stock liquidation
preference, holders of the then outstanding Series 1-C preferred stock are entitled to a liquidation
preference equal to $0.32921 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 1-C preferred stock are insufficient to permit the payment in full to such
holders of the Series 1-C 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 1-C 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, Series 2 preferred stock, and Series 1-C
preferred stock liquidation preference, holders of the then outstanding Series 1-A preferred stock
and 1-B preferred stock as a combined class are entitled to a liquidation preference equal to $0.80
per 1-A share, and $0.86 per 1-B 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 1-A preferred stock and Series 1-B preferred stock are insufficient to permit
the payment in full to such holders of the full Series 1-A and Series 1-B 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 1-A and 1-B preferred stock in proportion to the
liquidation preference amount each such holder is otherwise entitled to receive.
After the payment of all preferential amounts are made to the preferred stockholders, all the
remaining funds and assets of the corporation shall be distributed on a pro rata basis among the
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-B 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, 2010 and 2009 the conversion price was $0.80, $0.86, $1.32921, $0.1777 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 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.

In connection with the Series 2 issuance in July 2007, the Company issued warrants to purchase
17,079,347 shares of Series 2 preferred stock at an exercise price of $a 1777 per share. The fair
value of the warrant of $1 million, calculated at the date of issuance was recorded as a "discounts
to the convertible preferred stock carrying amount. The Series 2 convertible preferred stock does
not have a mandatory redemption date and is not optionally redeemable by the issuer, therefore
the initial carrying value of the preferred stock assigned at the issuance date is not being accreted.
In July 2010, upon the exercises of the warrants, the preferred stock warrant liability was
reclassified to stockholders' equity. Prior to reclassifying the warrant liability to equity on the date
of exercise, the Company recorded a $3 thousand warrant revaluation income as a final mark to
market adjustment on the preferred stock warrant liability.

Stock Option Plans
In July 2010, the Company adopted the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the '2010 Plan"). The 2010
plan is intended as the successor to and continuation of the 2000 Stock Plan (the "2000 Plan").
The Company reserved 5,800,000 shares of the common stock of the Company for issuance
pursuant to the 2010 Plan. No additional awards shall be granted under the 2000 Plan. All
outstanding stock awards granted under the 2000 Plan shall remain subject to the terms of the
2000 Plan; provided, however, that after July 23, 2010, any shares underlying outstanding stock
awards granted under the 2000 Plan that expire or terminate for any reason prior to exercise or
settlement or are forfeited because of the failure to meet a contingency or condition required to vest
such shares shall become available for issuance pursuant to the 2010 Plan. All stock awards
granted on or after the effective date of the 2010 Plan shall be subject to the terms of the 2010
Plan. Under the plan, the Company may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted
stock awards, and restricted stock unit awards.
The 2000 and 2010 Plans provide for the granting of stock options to employees and consultants of
the Company. Options granted under the Plans may be either incentive stock options or
nonqualified stock options. Incentive stock options (ISO) may be granted only to Company
employees (including officers and directors who are also employees). Nonqualified stock options
(NSO) may be granted to Company employees and consultants.
Options under the plans may be granted for periods of up to 10 years. The exercise price of an
ISO and NSO shall not be less than 100% and 85% of the estimated fair value of the shares on the
date of grant, respectively, as determined by the Board of Directors. The exercise price of an ISO
and NSO granted to a 10% shareholder shall not be less than 110% of the estimated fair value of
the shares on the date of grant. Options granted generally vest over four years and vest at a rate
of 25% upon the first anniversary and 1/48 per month thereafter.

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 199,219 and 1,387,003 shares at December 31, 2010
and 2009, 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, 2010 and 2009, 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, 2010
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, 2010 of $0.36 per share. The intrinsic value for out-of-the money options is zero.
The total intrinsic value of options exercised during 2010 and 2009 was $1,331 thousand and $68
thousand, 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 2010 and 2009 represented 792,500 and 589,000 shares, respectively.
Nonemployee stock-options to purchase 1,356,071 and 4,754,741 shares were outstanding at
December 31, 2010 and 2009 with a weighted-average exercise price of $0.23 and $0.22 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,
2010, 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 thousand which is
outstanding of December 31, 2010. Interest on the note accrues at an annual rate of 4.82•x6. 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 unvested 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 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded $184 thousand and $32 thousand, 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 2010 and 2009 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.
28
EFTA00293591
AliphCom
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
•
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.
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 2010 and
2009:
2010
2009
Volatility
45.9 %
52.0 %
Dividend yield
0.0 %
0.0 %
Risk-free interest rate

5.58
6.08
The weighted-average fair value of options on the date of grant was $0.16 and $0.08 per share for
options granted during 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Employee stock-based compensation expense recognized in 2010 and 2009 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, 2010, the Company had $1,743 thousand of total unrecognized compensation
expense, net of estimated forfeitures that will be recognized over a weighted-average period of
approximately 3.7 years.

In October 2011, the Company made UP by Jawbone available for sale in retail stores and online.
UP is a wristband device that, combined with an iPhone application, measures the daily physical
activity and sleep patterns of the user. By the end of November 2011, many users began to report
various hardware defects with the units they had purchased. In December 2011, the Company
announced the 'UP No Questions Asked Guarantee" ('the Guarantee') on its website and via email
to registered users of UP. The details of the Guarantee include full refunds to all UP customers
and the temporary halt of UP sales. Other implications to the Company of the Guarantee include
exposure to channel partners for the authorization of returns of all unsold units. The Company
estimates that it will incur up to approximately $19.5 million in aggregate expenses related to the
product launch and subsequent Guarantee.
