PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS Innotrac Corporation ("Innotrac" or the "Company"), founded in 1984 and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, provides order processing, order fulfillment and call center services to large corporations that outsource these functions. In order to perform call center and fulfillment functions in-house, a company may be required to develop expensive, labor-intensive infrastructures, which may divert its resources and management's focus from its principal or core business. By assuming responsibility for these tasks, Innotrac strives to improve the quality of the non-core operations of our clients and to reduce their overall operating costs. Innotrac receives most of our clients' orders either through inbound call center services, electronic data interchange ("EDI") or the internet. On a same day basis, depending on product availability, the Company picks, packs, verifies and ships the item, tracks inventory levels through an automated, integrated perpetual inventory system, warehouses data and handles customer support inquiries. Our fulfillment and customer support services interrelate and are sold as a package, however they are individually priced. Our clients may utilize our fulfillment services, our customer support services, or both, depending on their individual needs. Innotrac's core competencies include: - Fulfillment Services: - sophisticated warehouse management technology - automated shipping solutions - real-time inventory tracking and order status - purchasing and inventory management - channel development - zone skipping for shipment cost reduction - product sourcing and procurement - packaging solutions - back-order management - returns management - Customer Support Services: - inbound call center services - technical support and order status - returns and refunds processing - call centers integrated into fulfillment platform - cross-sell/up-sell services - collaborative chat - intuitive e-mail response The Company is a major provider of fulfillment and customer support services to the telecommunications industry. In spite of a significant contraction and consolidation in this industry in the past several years, the Company continues to provide customer support services and fulfillment of consumer telephones and caller ID equipment ("Telecommunications products") and Digital Subscriber Line Modems ("Modems") for clients such as BellSouth Corporation ("BellSouth"), Qwest Communications International, Inc. ("Qwest") and their customers. The Company also provides a variety of these services for a significant number of retail, catalog and direct marketing companies such as The Coca-Cola Company, Ann Taylor Retail, Inc., Smith & Hawken, Ltd., 3 Porsche Cars North America, Inc., Nordstrom.com LLC, and Thane International. We take orders for our retail, catalog and direct marketing clients via the internet, through customer service representatives at our Pueblo and Reno call centers or through direct electronic transmissions from our clients. The orders are processed through one of our order management systems and then transmitted to one of our eight fulfillment centers located across the country, and are shipped to the end consumer or retail store location, as applicable, typically within 24 hours of when the order is received. Inventory is held on a consignment basis, with certain exceptions, and includes items such as shoes, clothing, accessories, books and outdoor furniture. The Company also provides these services for business-to-business ("B2B") clients including Books are Fun, Ltd. (a subsidiary of Readers' Digest), NAPA and The Walt Disney Company. The following table sets forth the percentage of revenues generated by the Company's various business lines during 2005 and 2004:
2005 2004 ----- ----- Telecommunications products 12.2% 18.7% Modems 21.2 19.5 Retail/Catalog 32.2 30.7 Direct Marketing 23.2 20.5 B2B 11.2 10.6 ----- ----- 100.0% 100.0% ===== =====
In August 2004, we leased a 75,000 square foot fulfillment center in New Castle, Delaware. This facility provides fulfillment services for a new direct marketing client. Capital expenditures associated with this facility were approximately $260,000 in 2004. In December 2005, we entered into a five year lease for a new facility in Hebron, Kentucky. This new facility is currently under construction and will provide approximately 650,000 square feet of fulfillment and warehouse space for our Target.com operations beginning in the second quarter of 2006. With facilities in Atlanta, Georgia, Pueblo, Colorado, Reno, Nevada, Bolingbrook, Illinois, Hebron, Kentucky and New Castle, Delaware, our national footprint is virtually complete. We are committed to deeper penetration within our existing business lines and continued diversification of our client base. Our long-term goal is to have our business mix spread evenly across a higher number of clients in diverse industries. We will continue to seek new clients and may open additional facilities in other geographic locations to service these needs. FULFILLMENT SERVICES Providing effective turnkey fulfillment solutions for our clients' products is our primary business. Our capabilities in this area are described below: FULFILLMENT. We are committed to delivering our clients' products to their customers on a timely and accurate basis. Our personnel pick, pack, verify and ship product orders and requests for promotional, technical and educational literature, shoes, clothing, electronic equipment, accessories, books and outdoor furniture for our clients. We use several custom-designed, semi-automated packaging and labeling lines to pack and ship products as well as highly automated, conveyorized systems utilizing RF scanning and pick-to-light technologies. By utilizing these technologies, we are able to reduce labor costs and provide more timely shipments to our clients' customers. We streamline and customize the fulfillment procedures for each client based upon the client request and the tracking, reporting and inventory controls necessary to implement that client's marketing support program. We also offer comprehensive product return services whereby our personnel receive, log, test, repackage and dispose of products that are returned from end-users. 4 Our Atlanta operations earned ISO 9001:2000 certification in 2002, our Hebron, Kentucky operations earned ISO 9001:2000 certification in 2003, our Pueblo operations earned ISO 9001:2000 certification in 2004 and our Chicago and Delaware operations earned ISO 9001:2000 certification in 2005. We are dedicated to providing quality service to our clients at every step in the fulfillment process. To ensure order accuracy, shipment inspection and system driven validation are performed to prove the contents exactly match the order prior to shipment. In addition, we have highly sensitive scales at the end of our packaging lines that also assist in ensuring the accuracy of every order. Our 2005 order accuracy rate exceeded 99.5%. INVENTORY MANAGEMENT. An integral part of our fulfillment services is the monitoring and control of our clients' inventories. We provide automated inventory management and reporting to assure real-time stock counts of our client's products, literature and other items. Our inventory systems enable us to provide management information to maintain consistent and timely reorder levels and supply capabilities and also enable the client to quickly assess stock balances, pricing information, reorder levels and inventory values. We offer this information to the client on a real-time basis through our internet gateway or direct system integration. Inventory management data is also utilized in our reporting services. We utilize bar coding equipment in our inventory management systems, which improves the efficiency of stock management and selection. We also perform cycle counts throughout the year to check system-maintained item balances against physical item balances. Our facilities have several layers of security. When necessary, we dispose of clients' products utilizing established guidelines. Disposal procedures vary depending on the product and client business rules. PURCHASING MANAGEMENT. For certain clients, we place orders for products we fulfill with vendors chosen by those clients. Our purchasing management services include assisting a client in negotiating product pricing with the vendor, arranging returns and credits as well as forecasting product quantities required for normal business programs or promotions. PRODUCT CONSIGNMENT AND WAREHOUSING. For substantially all of our clients, we warehouse products on a consignment basis and fulfill orders on behalf of our customers for a fee. In certain cases (primarily BellSouth), we may purchase and own inventory, but on a significantly reduced risk basis as a result of client guarantees and contractual indemnifications. CUSTOMER SUPPORT SERVICES Another of our core competencies is providing customer support services. We believe these services are critical to a comprehensive order processing and order fulfillment solution. Our customer support services are described below. INBOUND CALL CENTER SERVICES. Our customer service representatives take orders for certain clients and resolve questions regarding shipping, billing and order status as well as a variety of other questions. From time to time they may sell equipment, other products and telephone company services to customers who call us. To properly handle the call, Innotrac's automated call distributor identifies each inbound call by the toll-free number dialed and immediately routes the call to the interactive voice response ("IVR") system or an Innotrac customer service representative. If the caller is placing an order they are immediately transmitted to a customer service representative trained to take the order and enter it into our systems for transmittal to the appropriate fulfillment center. If the customer has a question, complaint or needs return information, the IVR system attempts to resolve these issues by guiding the customer through a series of interactive questions. If IVR automatic resolution cannot solve the problem, the call is routed to one of our customer service representatives who are specially trained in the applicable client's business and products and answer using the client's name. Our customer service representatives can enter customer information into our call-tracking system, listen to a question and quickly access a proprietary network database using a graphical interface to answer a customer's question. A senior representative is available to provide additional assistance for complex or unique customer questions. Customer service representatives are also trained to handle introductory level technical support issues. Customer requests are generally resolved with a single call, whether answered by a trained representative or our automated systems. 5 RETURNS AND REFUNDS PROCESSING. The representatives respond to customer calls about product returns and refunds and obtain information about customer service problems. They facilitate a customer's return of a product by providing a bar-coded label to the customer. When the returned item is processed and entered into our system, it automatically triggers a pre-set action for reshipment of a product or refund to the customer. TECHNOLOGY Our use of technology enables us to design and deliver services for each client's fulfillment and customer support needs. Our information technology group, or IT Group, has developed our database marketing support and management systems. Innotrac has a technical integration platform written in Java over an Oracle database, which contains a complete web interface and XML-based APIs that allows clients to transact with us electronically. We deploy the solution running on Sun Solaris and utilizing Veritas cluster server software, which provides a high availability computing environment. Veritas backup software, DLT tape libraries and Oracle Hot backup capabilities allow us to backup our production Oracle databases online without interruption to the business unit. Our burstable bandwidth allows us to quickly increase data capacity. Our EMC storage solutions provide rapid access to data and the ability to scale quickly depending on business demands. Network connectivity is achieved with Cisco routers and local directors. The open architecture of our computer system permits us to seamlessly interact with many different types of client systems. Our IT Group uses this platform to design and implement application software for each client's program, allowing clients to review their programs' progress on-line to obtain real-time comprehensive trend analysis, inventory levels and order status and to instantly alter certain program parameters. As the needs of a client evolve, our IT Group works with our client services team to modify the program on an ongoing basis. Information can be exchanged via direct system integration, EDI, internet access and direct-dial applications. We believe that our technology platform provides us with the resources to continue to offer leading edge services to current and new clients and to integrate our systems with theirs. We believe that the integrity of client information is adequately protected by our data security system and our off-site disaster back-up facilities. We utilize three primary warehouse management systems depending on our business line and our locations. In 2002, we completed the implementation of PKMS for clients at our Pueblo, Atlanta and Chicago-Romeoville warehouses. PKMS is an advanced fulfillment warehouse management system designed to support large volumes of transactions and users, which enable the effective management of high levels of throughput, from receiving through shipping. PKMS provides efficiencies in inventory management, outbound distribution and task management. Our Chicago-Bolingbrook and Cincinnati-Hebron facilities utilize an Optum warehouse management system, which is a highly configurable fulfillment solution for fast-moving, high volume, piece-pick operations suitable for our multi-channel retailers and catalogers. Our Reno and Delaware facilities utilize an internally-developed, customized order management system ("OMS") that is fully integrated with a customized warehouse management solution and includes front-end customer relationship management capabilities, which we believe is suitable for direct marketing clients. We believe that our use of different systems for different types of clients and products allow us to effectively and efficiently manage our warehouse operations to secure a competitive advantage in the fulfillment industry. Our Pueblo call center utilizes the Rockwell Spectrum Automatic Call Distributor, or ACD, switch to handle call management functions. The ACD system has the capacity to handle approximately 1,200 call center representatives and as of December 31, 2005 was supporting approximately 221 representatives. Additionally, the ACD system is integrated with software designed to enable management to staff and supervise the call center based on call length and call volume data compiled by the ACD system. Our call center in Reno employs an Aspect ACD Enterprise System switch and is currently supporting approximately 56 representatives. Our integrated systems allow the customer service representatives to enter orders received via telephone into their computer which transmits the data over T1 lines to one of our 6 eight fulfillment centers' order management systems where it is processed. Shortly thereafter the product is picked, packed, verified and shipped to the customer. PERSONNEL AND TRAINING Our success in recruiting, hiring and training large numbers of employees and obtaining large numbers of hourly employees during peak periods for fulfillment and call center operations is critical to our ability to provide high quality fulfillment and customer support services. Call center representatives and fulfillment personnel receive feedback on their performance on a regular basis and, as appropriate, are recognized for superior performance. Additional training is provided to all fulfillment center employees quarterly and to our call center representatives on an as-needed basis. To maintain good employee relations and to minimize employee turnover, we offer competitive pay and hire primarily full-time employees who are eligible to receive a full range of employee benefits. As of March 1, 2006, we had over 840 full-time employees supported by part-time staff on an as-needed basis. Management believes that the demographics surrounding our facilities and our reputation, stability, compensation and benefit plans should allow us to continue to attract and retain qualified employees. Currently, we are not a party to any collective bargaining agreements. None of our employees are unionized. COMPETITION In tailoring services to client needs, we compete on the basis of quality, reliability of service, scope of locations, efficiency, technical capabilities, speed and price. We compete with many companies, some of which have greater resources than us, with respect to various portions of our business. Those companies include fulfillment businesses and call center operations. We believe that our comprehensive and integrated services differentiate us from many of those competitors. We continuously explore new outsourcing service opportunities, typically in circumstances where clients are experiencing inefficiencies in non-core areas of their businesses and management believes we can develop a superior outsourced solution on a cost-effective basis. We primarily compete with the in-house operations of our current and potential clients and also compete with certain companies that provide similar services on an outsourced basis. GOVERNMENT REGULATION The Caller ID services offered by our telecommunications clients are subject to various federal and state regulations. The legality of Caller ID has been challenged in cases decided under the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), and several state statutes. In 1994, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) preempted certain state regulation of interstate Caller ID or other calling party number (CPN) based services, including state regulations which (1) prohibit the offering of interstate CPN-based services; (2) require blocking alternatives on intrastate calls different from those adopted by the FCC; or (3) require blocking systems that interfere with the use of "*67" to achieve blocking on interstate calls. This report further required certain common carriers to transmit CPN and its associated privacy indicator (which allows telephone callers to block the display of their phone numbers on Caller ID display units) on an interstate call to connecting carriers without charge (the "Free Passage" rule). In connection with this report, the Department of Justice issued a memorandum which concluded that the installation or use of interstate Caller ID service was not prohibited by any federal wiretap statute and that in general, the FCC had authority to preempt state laws that would hinder federal communications policy on Caller ID services. Court decisions since the FCC issued its 1994 report have consistently held that Caller ID does not violate any state or federal wiretap statute. In 1995, the FCC narrowed its initial preemption of state public utilities blocking regulations by permitting subscribers to choose per-line blocking or per-call blocking on interstate calls, provided that all carriers were required to adopt a uniform method of overriding blocking on any particular call. At the same time, the FCC preempted a California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) per-line blocking default policy, which provided that subscribers with unlisted telephone numbers who fail to communicate their choice 7 between per-call blocking and per-line blocking of calling party number-based services, be served with a system that blocks disclosure of CPN on all calls (i.e., per-line blocking). The FCC's rules and regulations also require carriers to explain to their subscribers (1) that their telephone numbers may be transmitted to the called party, (2) that there is a privacy mechanism (i.e., the "blocking" feature) available on interstate calls, and (3) how the mechanism can be activated. The CPUC, seeking to protect the caller's privacy, has ruled that a carrier can offer Caller ID or transmit CPN to interconnecting carriers only upon CPUC approval of its customer notification and education plan. Under separate FCC rules (see below), telemarketers are required to transmit Caller ID information and are prohibited from blocking such information. Section 222 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 introduced restrictions on telecommunications carriers' usage of customer proprietary network information (CPNI). CPNI includes information that is personal to customers, including where, when and to whom a customer places a call, as well as the types of telecommunications services to which the customer subscribes and the extent these services are used. In a series of orders since 1998, the FCC has interpreted the CPNI restrictions to permit telecommunications carriers, including BellSouth and Qwest, to use CPNI without customer approval to market services that are related to the customer's existing service relationship with the carrier. Before carriers may use CPNI to market services outside a customer's existing service relationships, the carrier must obtain express customer permission. Because we are dependent upon the efforts of our clients to promote and market their equipment and services, federal and state laws and regulations inhibiting those clients' ability to market these equipment and services to their existing customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Telephone sales practices are regulated at both the federal and state level. These regulations primarily relate to outbound teleservices, which, in most cases, we outsource to another company. The few cases where we do conduct outbound teleservices are related solely to the support of our clients with catalog sales programs, and thus are exempt from the regulations most commonly associated with outbound teleservices. Outbound teleservices are regulated by the rules of the FCC and the FTC under the Federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991, as amended (TCPA), the Federal Telemarketing and Consumer Fraud and Abuse Prevention Act of 1994, as amended (FTCFAP), respectively, and by various state regulations regarding telephone solicitations. In a July 2003 Report and Order, the FCC amended its rules implementing the TCPA, providing for: (1) restrictions on calls made by automatic dialing and announcing devises; (2) limitations on the use of predictive dialers of outbound calls; (3) institution of a national "do-not-call" registry in conjunction with the FTC; (4) guidelines on maintaining an internal "do-not-call" list and honoring "do-not-call" requests; and (5) requirements for telephone solicitors to transmit Caller ID information. The FTC's Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR) was issued pursuant to the FTCFAP to prevent deceptive and abusive telemarketing acts and practices. Recent amendments to the TSR include: (1) subjecting certain inbound calls to additional disclosure requirements; (2) prohibiting the disclosure or receipt, for consideration, of unencrypted consumer account numbers for use in telemarketing; (3) application of the TSR to charitable solicitations; (4) institution of a national "do-not-call" registry; and (4) limitations on the use of predictive dialers for outbound calls. We believe that we are in compliance with these federal statutes and the FCC and FTC rules thereunder and the various state regulations, and that we would operate in compliance with those rules and regulations if we were to engage in outbound teleservice operations in the future. We work closely with our clients, companies we outsource outbound teleservices to and their respective advisors to ensure that we and our clients are in compliance with these regulations. We cannot predict whether the status of the regulation of Caller ID services or e-commerce will change and what affect, if any, this change would have on us or our industry. 8 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY We have used the service mark "Innotrac" since 1985 and have registered it and other marks used by us in our business through the US Patent and Trademark Office. The "innotrac.com" domain name has been a registered domain name since 1995. We also own several other internet domain names. Due to the possible use of identical or phonetically similar service marks by other companies in different businesses, there can be no assurance that our service marks will not be challenged by other users. Our operations frequently incorporate proprietary and confidential information. We rely upon a combination of contract provisions and trade secret laws to protect the proprietary technology we use and to deter misappropriation of our proprietary rights and trade secrets. CERTAIN FACTORS AFFECTING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains certain forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995).

IF WE LOSE ONE OR MORE OF OUR LARGEST CLIENTS, OR IF REVENUES FROM OUR LARGEST CLIENTS DECLINE, OUR BUSINESS COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. Innotrac focuses on developing long-term contractual relationships with large corporations. A relatively small number of our clients account for a significant portion of our revenues. Our ten largest clients accounted for 81.4% of our revenue in 2005. If we lose one or more of our largest clients, or if revenues from our largest clients decline, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. Additionally, if one of these large clients is lost, or revenues from our largest clients decline, we cannot assure you that we will be able to replace or supplement that client with others that generate comparable revenues or profits. One of our largest clients, BellSouth, recently announced that it plans to merge with AT&T. We cannot predict what impact, if any, this merger will have on our business, if consummated. OUR WRITTEN CONTRACTS GENERALLY DO NOT GUARANTEE SPECIFIC VOLUME LEVELS AND CAN USUALLY BE TERMINATED ON LITTLE NOTICE. Although we have written agreements with most of our clients, our agreements generally do not assure specific volume or revenue levels. In addition, some agreements provide for termination for any reason on short notice. Our current agreement with BellSouth may be terminated by BellSouth for any reason upon 90 days notice. Furthermore, we are contractually bound to our facility leases until their terms expire. If a client terminates its contract suddenly, we will still have obligations under our leases. 10 A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF OUR BUSINESS IS CONCENTRATED IN THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS INDUSTRY, INCLUDING DSL MODEMS. Approximately 33% of our revenues in 2005 and approximately 38% of our revenues in 2004 were attributable to Telecommunications products and Modems clients. Consequently, we are particularly susceptible to negative changes affecting these industries in general. The telecommunications industry has suffered a material downturn since mid-2000, which has had a significant negative impact on our business. To ameliorate this risk, we have been diversifying our client base across more industries and clients, including through selective acquisitions. We cannot guarantee, however, that the telecommunications industry will strengthen in 2006 or not deteriorate further, or that our diversification strategy will be successful. A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF OUR BUSINESS IS CONCENTRATED IN THE DIRECT RESPONSE INDUSTRY. Approximately 23% of our revenues in 2005 and approximately 21% of our revenues in 2004 were attributable primarily to clients in the direct response industry. Consequently, we are particularly susceptible to negative changes that impact this industry and our clients in particular, including potential false advertising product claims and Federal Trade Commission regulation and enforcement. The direct response industry has suffered a material downturn since the third quarter of 2001, which has had a significant negative impact on our business. This general downturn has significantly weakened the financial strength and wherewithal of companies in this sector which increases our risk pertaining to future business, growth and the collectibility of accounts receivable from our existing clients. If any of our existing direct response clients were to default on their amounts due Innotrac, this would result in a material charge against earnings. A former client, Tactica, has a material past due balance for which a reserve has been recorded. COMPETITION MAY HURT OUR BUSINESS. We operate in highly competitive and price sensitive markets and expect this environment to persist and intensify in the future. Because our services comprise marketing and product consultation, sales channel management, fulfillment and back-end support, including our call center operations and returns processing, we have many competitors who offer one or more of these services. Our competitors include: - in-house marketing support operations of our current and potential clients; - other firms offering specific services, like fulfillment and call center operations; and - large marketing support services firms. A number of our competitors have developed or may develop financial and other resources greater than ours. Additional competitors with greater name recognition and resources may enter our markets. Our existing or potential clients' in-house operations are also significant competitors. Our performance and growth could be negatively impacted if: - existing clients demand and receive pricing concessions; - existing clients decide to provide, in-house, services they currently outsource; - potential clients retain or increase their in-house capabilities; or - existing clients consolidate their outsourced services with other companies. In addition, competitive pressures from current or future competitors could result in significant price erosion, which could in turn materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. For more information about our competition, see "Business--Competition" in Item 1. 11 IF WE ARE NOT ABLE TO KEEP PACE WITH CHANGING TECHNOLOGY, OUR BUSINESS WILL BE MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECTED. Our success depends significantly upon our ability to: - integrate new clients in a timely and cost efficient manner; - enhance existing services; - develop applications to meet our clients' needs; and - introduce new services and products to respond to technological developments. If we fail to maintain our technological capabilities or respond effectively to technological changes, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. We cannot assure you that we will select, invest in and develop new and enhanced technology on a timely basis in the future in order to meet our clients' needs and maintain competitiveness. Our Reno systems, which provide service to several of our largest clients, are completely customized and therefore not supported by third party providers. We are heavily reliant on a small number of developers. If these developers leave, it could materially adversely affect our business. We provide details about our technology in "Business--Technology" in Item 1. OUR QUARTERLY RESULTS MAY FLUCTUATE, WHICH MAY CAUSE SIGNIFICANT SWINGS IN THE MARKET PRICE FOR OUR COMMON STOCK. Our operating results may fluctuate in the future based on many factors. These factors include, among other things: - changes in the telecommunications industry; - changes in the retail industry; - changes in the fulfillment and call center services industries; - changes in the timing and level of client-specific marketing programs, including the timing and nature of promotions; - changes in our existing client base; - pricing pressure or concessions; - increased competition; and - changes in customer purchasing patterns for products we fulfill. Due to these and any other unforeseen factors, it is possible that in some future quarter our operating results may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors. If that variance occurs, our common stock price would likely decline materially. OUR COMMON STOCK LACKS LIQUIDITY AND IS HELD BY A SMALL NUMBER OF INVESTORS, ONE OF WHICH IS IN RECEIVERSHIP WHERE ITS CREDITORS WOULD LIKE TO SELL OUR SHARES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. As of December 31, 2005, Innotrac officers and directors owned approximately 47.3% of the outstanding common stock and an institutional shareholder, IPOF Fund, L.P., and their affiliates held 34.0%. These ownership positions have resulted in a lack of liquidity in our common stock. Additionally, if any of Innotrac's significant shareholders decided to liquidate its or their position, our common stock price would likely decline materially. The United States District Court in Cleveland, Ohio has appointed a receiver to identify and administer the assets of the IPOF Fund, L.P. and its general partner, Mr. David Dadante. Based on information from the receiver, the Company understands that the Fund and Mr. Dadante own 4,176,725 shares of common stock of the Company, representing approximately 34.0% of the total shares outstanding, all of which are held as collateral in margin accounts maintained at several financial institutions. The Company has been engaged in discussions with the receiver in an effort to cause the shares to be sold in a manner that causes as little disruption to the market for Company stock as possible. The Federal Court has prohibited the financial 12 institutions holding Company stock owned by the IPOF Fund and Mr. Dadante in margin accounts from selling any of these shares through at least July 14, 2006. The court has permitted open market sales by the receiver as he may in his sole discretion determine to be consistent with his duty to maximize the value of the assets of IPOF Fund, and as warranted by market conditions. The receiver has indicated to the Company that he does not intend to direct any open market sales during this period except in circumstances in which he believes that there would be no material adverse impact on the market price for the Company's shares. Nevertheless, as long as these shares are held in margin accounts where the lenders desire to liquidate the positions, there will be significant downward pressure on the market price of our common stock because the market is concerned that these shares may be sold in a manner that causes the price of our common stock to decline precipitously. This concern is ameliorated to some degree by the continuing prohibition by the Federal Court on sales of our shares by financial institutions that hold the shares in margin accounts. The Federal Court has extended this prohibition on several occasions, most recently to July 14, 2006, while we and the receiver pursue the sale of these shares in a manner that would not disrupt the market for our common stock. If the Federal Court were to not extend this prohibition before the shares have been sold in such a transaction, then the financial institutions might foreclose on some or all of these shares and sell them into the market, which could have an extremely negative impact on the market price for our common stock. IF OUR GOODWILL IS DEEMED IMPAIRED AS PART OF OUR ANNUAL (OR EARLIER) IMPAIRMENT TEST, THE IMPAIRMENT CHARGE WOULD RESULT IN A DECREASE IN OUR EARNINGS AND NET WORTH. Current accounting rules require that goodwill no longer be amortized but be tested for impairment at least annually. We have a significant amount of goodwill which, based upon a negative outcome of any impairment test in the future, could result in the write-down of all or a portion of goodwill and a corresponding reduction in earnings and net worth. NONCOMPLIANCE WITH ANY OF THE COVENANTS UNDER OUR REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT ALLOWS THE LENDER TO DECLARE ANY OUTSTANDING BORROWING AMOUNTS TO BE IMMEDIATELY DUE AND PAYABLE. Our revolving line of credit agreement contains a financial, change of ownership control and other restrictive covenants. Noncompliance with any of the covenants allows the lender to declare any outstanding borrowed amounts to be immediately due and payable. From time to time in the past, we have violated various restrictive covenants, and have been obligated to obtain waivers or amendments from the lender. Although we have been able to obtain waivers and amendments in the past, there is no guarantee that we will be able to do so for any future covenant breaches. If the lender does not waiver a future covenant violation, and accelerates the payment date for any amounts outstanding under the credit facility, we might not be able to pay these amounts. Failure to comply with the covenants, even if waived by our lenders, also could adversely affect our credit ratings, which could increase our costs of debt financings and impair our ability to obtain additional debt financing. DUE TO THE NATURE OF OUR BUSINESS WE HAVE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF UNSKILLED LABOR AND A HIGH TURNOVER RATE THEREBY INCREASING OUR EXPOSURE TO EMPLOYEE-RELATED LITIGATION. Our fulfillment and call centers employ a sizable amount of unskilled labor and generate a high turnover rate. We may have to terminate employees from time to time as our business mix changes and labor demands shift among our eight facilities. High employee turnover could increase our exposure to employee-related litigation. IF WE ARE NOT ABLE TO CONTINUE TO MANAGE OUR INFRASTRUCTURE AND VOLUME GROWTH, OUR BUSINESS COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. Our operations, number of facilities and volume of packages shipped have grown significantly in recent years. Our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected if we cannot effectively manage our growth. Our continued success depends upon our ability to: 13 - initiate, develop and maintain existing and new client relationships; - respond to competitive developments; - maintain pricing and margins; - continue to develop our sales infrastructure; - attract, train, motivate and retain management and other personnel; and - maintain the high quality of our services. IF THE TREND TOWARD OUTSOURCING DOES NOT CONTINUE, OUR BUSINESS WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. Our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected if the trend of businesses outsourcing services not directly related to their principal business activities declines or reverses, or if corporations bring previously outsourced functions back in-house. Particularly during general economic downturns, businesses may bring in-house previously outsourced functions in order to avoid or delay layoffs. OUR BUSINESS IS SUBJECT TO GOVERNMENT REGULATION, WHICH MAY LIMIT OUR ACTIVITIES OR INCREASE OUR COSTS. In connection with the limited amount of outbound telemarketing services that we provide, we must comply with federal and state regulations. These include the Federal Communications Commission's rules under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 and the Federal Trade Commission's regulations under the Federal Telemarketing and Consumer Fraud and Abuse Prevention Act of 1994, both of which govern telephone solicitation. When we conduct outbound telemarketing services, these rules and regulations would apply to that portion of our business. Furthermore, there may be additional federal and state legislation or changes in regulatory implementation. These changes could include interpretations under the Telecommunications Act of 1996 restricting the ability of telecommunications companies to use consumer proprietary network information (CPNI) or imposing new requirements on telecommunications companies to better ensure security and privacy of CPNI. New legislation or regulatory implementation in the future may significantly increase compliance costs or limit our activities, our clients' activities or the activities of companies to which we outsource outbound telemarketing functions. Additionally, we could be responsible for failing to comply with regulations applicable to our clients or companies to which we outsource telemarketing. If unfavorable federal or state legislation or regulations affecting Caller ID service, CPNI, internet service or other technology related to products we fulfill and provide customer support for are adopted, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. See "Business -- Government Regulation" in Item 1 for further information about government regulation of our business. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO INTEGRATE ACQUIRED BUSINESSES SUCCESSFULLY AND REALIZE ANTICIPATED ECONOMIC, OPERATIONAL AND OTHER BENEFITS IN A TIMELY MANNER, OUR PROFITABILITY MAY DECREASE. If we are unable to integrate previous or potential business acquisitions successfully, we may incur substantial costs and delays in increasing our customer base. In addition, the failure to integrate acquisitions successfully may divert management's attention from Innotrac's existing business and may damage Innotrac's relationship with its key customers and suppliers. Integration of an acquired business may be more difficult when we acquire a business in a market in which we have little or no expertise, or with a corporate culture different from Innotrac's. ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS None. 14 ITEM 2. PROPERTIES Currently, the Company leases all of its facilities. Our headquarters and fulfillment facilities are located in 250,000 square feet of leased space in Duluth, Georgia. Our corporate offices occupy 50,000 square feet of this facility and the remaining 200,000 square feet are used as fulfillment space. This site also includes approximately 3.5 acres that will be available for Innotrac's expansion, if required. The lease for our Duluth facility commenced in October 1998 and has a term of 10 years with two five-year renewal options. The lease provides for an option to purchase the facility at the end of the first five years of the term or at the end of the first 10 years of the term. We have not yet determined whether we will exercise this purchase option. In June 1999, we entered into a lease for a facility in Pueblo, Colorado with an initial term of five years with two five-year renewal options. In June 2004, we exercised the first renewal option to extend the lease for five years. The facility provides approximately 87,000 square feet of floor space. Approximately 45,000 square feet are used as a call center, as well as quality assurance, administrative, training and management space. This call center supports 370 workstations of which we utilized 221 at December 31, 2005. It currently operates from 5:00am MST to 11:00pm MST seven days per week. The remaining 42,000 square feet are used for fulfillment services. In October 1999, we entered into a lease for an additional fulfillment facility in Duluth, Georgia with an initial term of five years with one three-year renewal option. In August 2000, the Company entered into a lease extension and modification that expanded the facility space from approximately 52,000 square feet to 82,000 square feet. In July 2005, we entered into a lease extension and modification that reduced the facility space to approximately 52,000 for a term of two years. We operate a facility in Reno, Nevada that consists of over 275,000 square feet and includes administrative office space, a 250,000 square foot fulfillment center and a call center that can support 200 workstations. We lease this facility through two lease agreements, which were initiated in October 2002 and October 2000. These agreements have lease terms of five years and seven years, respectively. Currently, the call center is configured with approximately 120 workstations, of which 56 were being utilized at December 31, 2005. The call center operates from 5:00 am PST to 9:00 pm PST seven days per week. We operate a 354,000 square foot facility in Bolingbrook, Illinois. The lease for this facility was initiated at the date of acquisition in July 2001, and we renewed for an additional five years, at a lower monthly rental rate, commencing January 1, 2003. This lease contains one additional five-year renewal option. This facility is used exclusively for fulfillment services and contains approximately 40,000 square feet of administrative office space. In April 2002, we entered into a lease for a facility in Hebron, Kentucky for an initial term of five years with two renewal options; the first for one year and the second for three years. The facility provides approximately 396,000 square feet of fulfillment and warehouse space. This facility is fully occupied by inventory for our client, Smith & Hawken. In September 2002, we entered into a lease for a facility in Romeoville, Illinois for an initial term of five years and two months with two five-year renewal options. In June 2005 we exercised an option to lease an additional 51,254 square feet for a total of approximately 255,561 square feet of fulfillment and warehouse space. In August 2004, we entered into a three year lease for a new facility in New Castle, Delaware. In May 2005 we amended the lease to expand the leased premises to 118,722 square feet of fulfillment and warehouse space. This facility is currently being utilized by one of our direct marketing clients. In December 2005, we entered into a five year lease for a new facility in Hebron, Kentucky. This new facility is currently under construction and will provide approximately 650,000 square feet of fulfillment and warehouse space for our Target.com operations beginning in the second quarter of 2006. 15 ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS We are not a party to any material legal proceeding. We are, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the normal course of our business. Although management believes that none of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations, it is possible that such litigation and the related cost could become material in the future. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders of the Company during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this Report.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion may contain certain forward-looking statements that are subject to conditions that are beyond the control of the Company. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to, the Company's reliance on a small number of major clients; risks associated with the terms and pricing of our contracts; reliance on the telecommunications and direct marketing industries and the effect on the Company of the downturns, consolidation and changes in those industries in the past three years; risks associated with the fluctuations in volumes from our clients; risks associated with upgrading, customizing, migrating or supporting existing technology; risks associated with competition; and other factors discussed in more detail in Item 1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, under "Business--Certain Factors Affecting Forward-Looking Statements". OVERVIEW Innotrac Corporation ("Innotrac" or the "Company"), founded in 1984 and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, is a full-service fulfillment and logistics provider serving enterprise clients and world-class brands. The Company employs sophisticated order processing and warehouse management technology and operates eight fulfillment centers and two call centers in six cities spanning all time zones across the continental United States. We receive most of our clients' orders either through inbound call center services, electronic data interchange ("EDI") or the Internet. On a same-day basis, depending on product availability, the Company picks, packs, verifies and ships the item, tracks inventory levels through an automated, integrated perpetual inventory system, warehouses data and handles customer support inquiries. Our fulfillment and customer support services interrelate and are sold as a package, however they are individually priced. Our clients may utilize our fulfillment services, our customer support services, or both, depending on their individual needs. Our core service offering includes the following: - Fulfillment Services: - sophisticated warehouse management technology - automated shipping solutions - real-time inventory tracking and order status - purchasing and inventory management - channel development - zone skipping for shipment cost reduction - product sourcing and procurement - packaging solutions - back-order management - returns management - Customer Support Services: - inbound call center services - technical support and order status - returns and refunds processing - call centers integrated into fulfillment platform - cross-sell/up-sell services - collaborative chat - intuitive e-mail response 18 Prior to 2000, the Company was primarily focused on the telecommunications industry, with over 90% of its revenues being derived through this vertical. Today, the Company is primarily focused on five diverse lines of business, or industry verticals. This is a result of a significant effort made by the Company to diversify both its industry and client base over the past several years. BUSINESS MIX
Business Line/Vertical 2005 2004 - ---------------------- ----- ----- Telecommunications products 12.2% 18.7% Modems 21.2 19.5 Retail/Catalog 32.2 30.7 Direct Marketing 23.2 20.5 B2B 11.2 10.6 ----- ----- 100.0% 100.0% ===== =====
Telecommunications and Modems. The Company continues to be a major provider of fulfillment and customer support services to the telecommunications industry. In spite of a significant contraction and consolidation in this industry in the past several years, the Company continues to provide customer support services and fulfillment of telephones, Caller ID equipment, Digital Subscriber Line Modems ("DSL") and other telecommunications products to companies such as BellSouth Corporation ("BellSouth") and Qwest Communications International, Inc. ("Qwest") and their customers. Inventory for our telecommunications and DSL clients is held on a consignment basis, with the exception of certain BellSouth inventory, for which we are contractually indemnified, and includes items such as telephones, Caller ID equipment and DSL modems and ancillary equipment. Despite a decline in our telecommunications business as a result of reduced volumes due to the maturity of the telephone and Caller ID equipment business, we anticipate that the percentage of our revenues attributable to telecommunications and DSL clients will remain fairly constant during 2006 due mainly to increased volumes from our DSL modem business, which is still in a strong growth mode. Retail, Catalog and Direct Marketing. The Company also provides a variety of these services for a significant number of retail, catalog and direct marketing clients which include such companies as The Coca-Cola Company, Ann Taylor Retail, Inc., Smith & Hawken, Ltd., Porsche Cars North America, Inc., Nordstrom.com LLC, and Thane International. We take orders for our retail, catalog and direct marketing clients via the internet, through customer service representatives at our Pueblo and Reno call centers or through direct electronic transmissions from our clients. The orders are processed through one of our order management systems and then transmitted to one of our eight fulfillment centers located across the country and are shipped to the end consumer or retail store location, as applicable, typically within 24 hours of when the order is received. Inventory for our retail, catalog and direct marketing clients is held on a consignment basis, with minor exceptions, and includes items such as shoes, dresses, accessories, books and outdoor furniture. Our revenues are sensitive to the number of orders and customer service calls received. Our client contracts do not guarantee volumes. The percentage of our revenues attributable to our retail, catalog and direct marketing clients increased during 2005 as compared to 2004 primarily due to increased volumes from these clients and the shift in our business mix as volumes decreased for our telecommunications clients and several new retail, catalog and direct marketing clients were added. We anticipate that the percentage of our revenues attributable to our retail and catalog clients will increase during 2006 due to the addition of several new clients, including Target.com, late in the second quarter of 2006. We anticipate that the percentage of our revenues attributable to our direct marketing clients will remain fairly constant during 2006 as existing products mature and new products are introduced. Revenues attributable to our direct marketing clients increased in the first half of 2005 due to a highly successful new product introduced by one of our newer direct marketing clients, but weakened considerably in the second half as that product matured and the client's advertising for that product was reduced. On October 21, 2004, Tactica International, Inc. ("Tactica"), one of the Company's former direct response clients, filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 in U.S. Bankruptcy Court. On October 25, 19 2004 the Bankruptcy Court approved, on an interim basis, a Stipulation and Consent Order ("Stipulation") entered into between Tactica and Innotrac, whereby Tactica has acknowledged the validity of Innotrac's claim and Innotrac's first priority security interest in and warehouseman's lien on Tactica's inventory held by Innotrac. This Stipulation allowed Tactica to continue to sell its inventory while reducing the receivables owed by Tactica to Innotrac. The Stipulation required that the proceeds from the sale of such inventory be split with Innotrac 55%/45% on the first $1.6 million in customer orders and 60%/40% thereafter upon receipt of Tactica customer payments. Additionally, Tactica was required to prepay Innotrac for any services prior to its inventory being shipped. Tactica defaulted on the Stipulation and on January 18, 2005, Innotrac issued a Notice of Default to Tactica. In March 2005, Innotrac and Tactica reached a verbal agreement that would permit Innotrac to liquidate the Tactica inventory in order to pay down the receivable balance, with any excess proceeds to be remitted to Tactica. Innotrac, Tactica and the Creditor's Committee in the Tactica bankruptcy case reached an agreement on the terms of the liquidation and an additional amount of the proceeds to be remitted to the unsecured creditors of Tactica, which was approved by the bankruptcy court on June 23, 2005. Based on the Stipulation and an appraisal performed by a third party independent appraiser, the reserve associated with the Tactica receivable was decreased from $2.1 million at June 30, 2004 to $1.5 million at September 30, 2004. The reserve was further reduced to $1.2 million at December 31, 2004 based on the verbal agreement reached with Tactica regarding the liquidation of its inventory. Based on the approved agreement and management's estimate of the net realizable value of the inventory, the reserve associated with the Tactica receivable was further reduced from $1.2 million to $775,000 at March 31, 2005. In the fourth quarter 2005, the reserve associated with the Tactica receivable was increased to $2.5 million. The additional reserve was based on management's estimate of the net realizable value of the inventory, which was considerably reduced in the fourth quarter as a result of buyers not materializing as initially indicated by the third party independent appraiser and a continuing reduction in value of the merchandise. The actual results of the liquidation could vary from this estimate. As of March 15, 2006, Tactica owed $2.8 million in principal to Innotrac for past fulfillment and call center services. Business-to-Business. The Company also provides these services for business-to-business ("B2B") clients including Books Are Fun, Ltd. (a subsidiary of Reader's Digest), NAPA and The Walt Disney Company. This is a small, but growing area of our business. FACILITIES In August 2004 we leased a 75,000 square foot fulfillment center in New Castle, Delaware. This new facility provides fulfillment and warehouse space for a new direct marketing client. Capital expenditures associated with this facility were approximately $260,000. In December 2005, we entered into a five year lease for a new facility in Hebron, Kentucky. This new facility is currently under construction and will provide approximately 650,000 square feet of fulfillment and warehouse space for our Target.com operations beginning in the second quarter of 2006. Capital expenditures associated with this facility are estimated to be approximately $5.3 million and will be funded through our bank line of credit. With facilities in Atlanta, Georgia, Pueblo, Colorado, Reno, Nevada, Bolingbrook, Illinois, Hebron, Kentucky and New Castle, Delaware, our national footprint is virtually complete. We are committed to deeper penetration within our existing business lines and continued diversification of our client base. Our long-term goal is to have our business mix spread evenly across a higher number of clients in diverse industries. We will continue to seek new clients and may open additional facilities in other geographic locations to service these needs.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004 Revenues. The Company's net revenues decreased 5.7% to $73.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 from $78.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The decrease in revenues is primarily attributable to a $5.6 million reduction in revenue from our telecommunications vertical as a result of reduced volumes and the conclusion of two programs for a major client offset by a net increase of approximately $996,000 in revenues from our direct marketing and retail/catalog verticals as a result of the addition of several new clients and increased volumes, reduced by the termination of services for Tactica International, Inc. and Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia. Cost of Revenues. The Company's cost of revenues, which include labor costs for the fulfillment and call centers, telephone minute fees and freight and packaging material costs, decreased 0.7% to $37.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to $37.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. Cost of revenues decreased primarily due to a decrease in labor costs related to the decrease in revenue. Cost of revenues increased as a percentage of revenue in 2005 as compared to 2004 primarily due to a change in the business mix to clients with lower margin revenue and the addition of several new clients whose margins have not yet reached the level of a mature client. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. S,G&A expenses, which include facility and equipment costs, account services and information technology costs, management salaries and legal and accounting fees, increased 1.2% to $35.0 million or 47.3% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to $34.6 million or 44.1% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in expenses in 2005 as compared to 2004 was primarily attributable to an increase in other professional services of approximately $255,000 related to work performed for internal control documentation and additional expense related to property taxes for our Kentucky facility of approximately $279,000. In addition, 2005 facility and equipment costs exceeded those in 2004 by approximately $447,000, primarily related to the new facility opened in Delaware in the second half of 2004. These increases were offset by a $390,000 reduction in account services related costs in 2005 as compared to 2004 and a reduction of corporate salary expense of $577,000 in 2005 as compared to 2004. The increase in S,G&A expense as a percentage of revenues was primarily due to the overall decrease in revenues. Bad Debt Expense. Bad debt expense increased to $1.2 million or 1.7% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to $221,000 or 0.3% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in bad debt expense in 2005 as compared to 2004 was primarily attributable to a $1.3 million increase in the provision for bad debts for Tactica in 2005 compared to $78,000 recorded in 2004. 21 Income Taxes. The Company's effective tax rate for the year ended 2005 and 2004 was 0%. At December 31, 2003, a valuation allowance was recorded against the Company's net deferred tax assets as losses in recent years created uncertainty about the realization of tax benefits in future years. Income taxes associated with taxable losses and earnings for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were offset by a corresponding increase or reduction of this valuation allowance resulting in an effective tax rate of 0% for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003 Revenues. The Company's net revenues increased 4.8% to $78.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $74.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in revenues is primarily due to the addition of four new retail/catalog clients and three new direct marketing clients, primarily during the fourth quarter of 2004, which contributed $3.3 million in revenue. In addition, there was an increase of approximately $1.0 million from our existing retail clients, an increase of $770,000 from DSL clients and an increase of $1.7 million from our direct marketing clients, offset by a decrease of $2.6 million and $754,000 from our telecom and B2B businesses, respectively. Cost of Revenues. The Company's cost of revenues, which include labor costs for the fulfillment and call centers, telephone minute fees and freight and packaging material costs, increased 7.9% to $37.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 compared to $35.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. Cost of revenues increased in dollars and as a percentage of revenue primarily due the overall increase in revenues, the implementation and start-up costs associated with several new clients in the second half of 2004 and a change in the business mix. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. S,G&A expenses, which include facility and equipment costs, account services and information technology costs, management salaries and legal and accounting fees, decreased 0.8% to $34.6 million or 44.1% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2004 compared to $34.9 million or 46.7% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2003. The decrease in expenses in 2004 as compared to 2003 was primarily attributable to a reduction in costs from management's efforts to control expenses resulting in $860,000 lower account services related costs, $294,000 lower equipment costs and $285,000 lower information technology related costs, offset by $960,000 higher facility costs in 2004 as compared to 2003. There was also a reduction of approximately $400,000 in general and administrative costs, including management salaries and legal and accounting fees, during 2004 as compared to 2003. Additionally, the twelve months ended December 31, 2003 included one-time credits relating to contract penalty fee reversals, property tax refunds and coupon accrual reversal, totaling approximately $485,000. The decrease in S,G&A expense as a percentage of revenues was primarily due to the overall increase in revenues. Bad Debt Expense. Bad debt expense decreased to $221,000 or 0.3% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2004 compared to $1.6 million or 2.1% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2003. The decrease in bad debt expense in 2004 as compared to 2003 was primarily attributable to a $1.1 million provision for bad debts recorded in the fourth quarter of 2003 for Tactica as compared to $78,000 recorded in 2004. Special (Credits)/Charges. There were no special charges or credits during 2004. During 2003, the Company recorded a special credit of $30,000 associated with the settlement of a severance claim at an amount lower then previously reserved for in 2002. Income Taxes. The Company's effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 was 0% and 273%, respectively. At December 31, 2003, a valuation allowance of approximately $9.9 million was recorded against the Company's net deferred tax assets as losses in recent years created uncertainty about the realization of tax benefits in future years, resulting in an overall tax provision of approximately $8.8 million. Income taxes associated with taxable income for the year ended December 31, 2004 were offset by a reduction of this valuation allowance resulting in an effective tax rate of 0% for the year ended December 31, 2004. 22 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company funds its operations and capital expenditures primarily through cash flow from operations and borrowings under a credit facility with a bank. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.1 million at December 31, 2005 as compared to $1.4 million at December 31, 2004. Additionally, the Company did not have any borrowings under its revolving credit facility (discussed below) at December 31, 2005 as compared to $3.1 million at December 31, 2004. The Company generated positive cash flow from operations of $5.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2005. The Company also generated positive cash flow from operations for 2004. We anticipate positive cash flows from operations again in 2006. The Company recently renewed its revolving credit agreement to extend the facility for an additional three years, until March 2009. Although the facility has a maximum borrowing limit of $25.0 million, the credit facility limits borrowings to a specified percentage of eligible accounts receivable and inventory, which totaled $11.9 million at December 31, 2005. The maximum borrowing amount of this facility was reduced from $40.0 million to $25.0 million in the third quarter of 2004 as the Company does not anticipate a need for the larger amount. The Company has granted a security interest in all of its assets to the lender as collateral under this revolving credit agreement. The revolving credit agreement contains restrictive fixed charge coverage ratio, change in ownership control and other covenants. The provisions of the revolving credit agreement require that the Company maintain a lockbox arrangement with the lender, and allows the lender to declare any outstanding borrowing amounts to be immediately due and payable as a result of noncompliance with any of the covenants. Accordingly, in the event of noncompliance, these amounts could be accelerated. As renewed, the facility requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of between 0.70 and 1.00 to 1.00, depending on the particular fiscal quarter, for each of the Company's quarters through the end of its fiscal year 2006, and a ratio of 1.15 to 1.00 thereafter. Although, at December 31, 2005 the Company was not in compliance with the then-current fixed charge coverage ratio requirement of 1.30 to 1.00, or with a then-existing tangible net worth requirement (which has been eliminated from the new facility), the Company received a waiver of such noncompliance from the bank. The Company's fixed charge ratio at December 31, 2005 was 1.18 to 1.00. Interest on borrowings is payable monthly at rates equal to the prime rate, or at the Company's option, LIBOR plus up to 200 basis points. During the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 the Company incurred interest expense related to the line of credit of approximately $87,000, $111,000 and $704,000, respectively, resulting in a weighted average interest rate of 5.01%, 3.48% and 3.80%, respectively. At December 31, 2005, the Company had $11.9 million of additional availability under the revolving credit agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company generated $5.1 million in cash flow from operating activities compared to $9.9 million in cash flow from operating activities in the same period in 2004. One of the primary contributors to generating cash in 2004 was the further reduction in inventory of approximately $8.2 million, of which $5.5 million related to the liquidation of wireless pager inventory as a result of our client exiting this business. This contributed to reductions in borrowings under our revolving credit facility of approximately $8.7 million. The decrease in cash provided from operating activities was primarily the result of net income in 2004 compared to a net loss in 2005 and the reduction of $8.2 million in inventory in 2004 as described in the preceding sentence compared to a $2.0 million increase in inventory in 2005. These effects were partially offset by an increase in net accounts receivable of $2.7 million in 2004 compared to a decrease of $5.7 million in 2005. In addition, there was a $499,000 reduction in prepaid and other assets in 2005 compared to a $1.3 million increase in 2004. During the year ended December 31, 2005, net cash used in investing activities was $2.6 million as compared to $2.8 million in 2004. These expenditures were funded through existing cash on hand, cash flow from operations and borrowings under the Company's credit facility. 23 During the year ended December 31, 2005, the net cash used in financing activities was $1.8 million compared to $8.0 million in the same period in 2004. The primary difference between years is attributable to a reduction in outstanding borrowings of $3.1 million in 2005 compared to a reduction in outstanding borrowings of $8.7 million in 2004. Additionally, during 2005, the Company generated cash of $1.3 million through the exercise of previously granted employee stock options, compared to $1.1 million generated in 2004. Capital expenditures were $2.6 million and $2.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. We anticipate capital expenditures of approximately $5.6 million in 2006. The increase in spending for 2006 over 2004 and 2005 is primarily related to the new facility currently under construction for Target.com. This estimate is subject to various contingencies, including the possible need to incur additional capital expenditures related to new clients or significant new initiatives by existing clients. The Company estimates that its cash and financing needs through 2006 will be met by cash flows from operations and its credit facility. The Company has generated positive cash flows from operations in each of the last three years and anticipates doing so again in 2006. The Company may need to raise additional funds in order to take advantage of unanticipated opportunities or the opening of new facilities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise any such capital on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The Company's primary long-term contractual commitments consist of operating leases. As of December 31, 2005, the Company did not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. In addition, as of December 31, 2005 the Company did not participate in any guarantees of other entities' obligations, structured finance arrangements, synthetic leases, repurchase obligations or similar commercial or financing commitments. Additionally, the Company does not trade in commodity contracts. The following table sets forth the Company's contractual commitments by period. For additional information, see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements (in 000's).
Payments Due by Period ------------------------------------------------------------------ Total Less than 1 year 1-3 years 4-5 years After 5 years ------- ---------------- --------- --------- ------------- Operating leases $30,716 $9,672 $14,932 $5,319 $793 Line of credit (1) -- -- -- -- --
(1) The provisions of the revolving line of credit agreement require that the Company maintain a lockbox arrangement with the lender and allow the lender to declare any outstanding borrowing amounts to be immediately due and payable as a result of noncompliance with any of the covenants. Accordingly, in the event of noncompliance, these amounts could be accelerated. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Critical accounting policies are those policies that can have a significant impact on the presentation of our financial position and results of operations and demand the most significant use of subjective estimates and management judgment. Because of the uncertainty inherent in such estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates. Specific risks inherent in our application of these critical policies are described below. For all of these policies, we caution that future events rarely develop exactly as forecast, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment. These policies often require difficult judgments on complex matters that are often subject to multiple sources of authoritative guidance. Additional information concerning our accounting policies can be found in Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. The policies that we believe are critical to an investor's understanding of our financial results and condition and require complex management judgment are discussed below: 24 Reserve for Uncollectible Accounts. The Company makes estimates each reporting period associated with its reserve for uncollectible accounts. These estimates are based on the aging of the receivables and known specific facts and circumstances. Goodwill and Other Acquired Intangibles. Goodwill represents the cost of an acquired enterprise in excess of the fair market value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. The Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," effective January 1, 2002, which changed the accounting for goodwill and other indefinite life intangibles from an amortization method to an impairment only approach. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill impairment is deemed to exist if the net book value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. Innotrac's goodwill carrying amount as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 was $25.2 million. This asset relates to the goodwill associated with the Company's acquisition of Universal Distribution Services ("UDS") in December 2000 (including the earnout payment made to the former UDS shareholders in February 2002), and the acquisition of iFulfillment, Inc. in July 2001. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company contracted with an independent third party valuation firm to perform a valuation in the first quarter of 2006. The third party valuation supported that the fair value of the reporting unit at January 1, 2006 exceeds the carrying amount of the net assets, including goodwill, and thus no impairment currently exists. Management has reviewed and concurs with the major assumptions used in the third party's valuation at January 1, 2006. The Company will perform this impairment test annually as of January 1 or sooner if circumstances dictate. Accounting for Income Taxes. Innotrac utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if the Company considers it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. Innotrac's net deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2005 is $12.2 million. This deferred tax asset was generated primarily by net operating loss carryforwards created primarily by the special charge of $34.3 million recorded in 2000 and the net losses generated in 2002 and 2003 and 2005. Innotrac has a tax net operating loss carryforward of $37.5 million at December 31, 2005 that expires between 2020 and 2025. Innotrac's ability to generate the expected amounts of taxable income from future operations is dependent upon general economic conditions, collection of existing outstanding accounts receivable, competitive pressures on sales and margins and other factors beyond management's control. These factors, combined with losses in recent years, create uncertainty about the ultimate realization of the gross deferred tax asset in future years. Therefore, a valuation allowance of approximately $12.2 million and $9.7 million has been recorded as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Income taxes associated with future earnings will be offset by a reduction in the valuation allowance. For the year ended December 31, 2005, the deferred income tax benefit of $2.5 million was offset by a corresponding increase of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance. When, and if, the Company can return to consistent profitability and management determines that it will be able to utilize the deferred tax assets prior to their expiration, the valuation allowance can be reduced or eliminated. Accounting Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," which revises SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." The revised Statement clarifies and expands SFAS No. 123's guidance in several areas, including measuring fair value, classifying an award as equity or as a 25 liability, and attributing compensation cost to reporting periods. The revised statement supercedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"), and its related implementation guidance. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), the alternative to use APB 25's intrinsic value method of accounting that was provided in SFAS No. 123, as originally issued, is eliminated, and entities are required to measure liabilities incurred to employees in share-based payment transactions at fair value. The Company currently accounts for its stock-based compensation plans under APB 25. Since the exercise price for all options granted under those plans was equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant, no compensation cost is recognized. SFAS No. 123(R) will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2006. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Management believes the Company's exposure to market risks (investments, interest rates and foreign currency) is immaterial. Innotrac holds no market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes. At present, the Company does not employ any derivative financial instruments, other financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments to hedge any market risks and does not currently plan to employ them in the future. The Company does not transact any sales in foreign currency. To the extent that the Company has borrowings outstanding under its credit facility, the Company will have market risk relating to the amount of borrowings due to variable interest rates under the credit facility. The Company believes this exposure is immaterial due to the short-term nature of these borrowings. Additionally, all of the Company's lease obligations are fixed in nature as noted in Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, and the Company has no long-term purchase commitments. 26 ITEM 8.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated statements. 32 1. ORGANIZATION Innotrac Corporation ("Innotrac" or the "Company"), a Georgia corporation, provides order processing, order fulfillment and call center services. The Company offers inventory management, inbound call center, pick/pack/ship services, order tracking, transaction processing and returns handling from its leased facilities in Atlanta, Georgia, Pueblo, Colorado, Reno, Nevada, Bolingbrook, Illinois, Hebron, Kentucky and New Castle, Delaware. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Financial Statement Presentation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary (which was merged into the Company effective January 1, 2005). The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Reclassifications have been made to prior year consolidated statements of operations to conform to the 2005 presentation. Accounting Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Concentration of Revenues. Revenues earned under the Company's contracts with its telecommunication clients to provide fulfillment of telecommunications equipment and related order processing and call center support services, including DSL modems and wireless pagers, accounted for approximately 33%, 38% and 42% of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Revenues generated from the fulfillment of DSL and cable modem equipment accounted for 21%, 20%, and 19% of the aforementioned totals. The following table sets forth the percentage of total revenues derived from each of the Company's largest clients for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003. Except for the major clients noted in the following table, no other single customer provided more than 10% of consolidated revenues during these years.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, ----------------------- 2005 2004 2003 ---- ---- ---- BELLSOUTH - TELECOM EQUIPMENT 8.8% 14.5% 18.5% - DSL EQUIPMENT 14.7 12.5 13.0 SMITH & HAWKEN 12.3 12.9 13.2 THANE 11.3 7.0 3.9 TACTICA 0.0 3.0 10.2
Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The carrying value of the Company's revolving credit facility approximates fair value given that interest rates under the facility are based on prevailing market rates. The book value of the Company's accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value. 33 Inventories. Inventories, consisting primarily of telephones and Caller ID equipment are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined by the first-in, first-out method. Substantially all inventory at December 31, 2005 and 2004 is for the account of one client who has indemnified the Company from substantially all risk associated with such inventory. Property and Equipment. Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is determined using straight-line methods over the following estimated useful lives: Rental equipment 3 years Computers and software 3-5 years Machinery and equipment 5-7 years Furniture and fixtures 7 years
Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the service lives of the improvements or the remaining term of the lease. Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 were $4.3 million, $4.9 million and $5.3 million, respectively. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Goodwill and Other Acquired Intangibles. Goodwill represents the cost of acquired enterprises in excess of the fair market value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. The Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" effective January 1, 2002, which changed the accounting for goodwill and other indefinite life intangibles from an amortization method to an impairment only approach. The Company tests goodwill annually for impairment at January 1 or sooner if circumstances indicate. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill impairment is deemed to exist if the net book value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. Upon completion of its analysis for impairment as of January 1, 2006 in accordance with SFAS No. 142, no impairment was determined to exist at that time. Innotrac's goodwill carrying amount as of December 31, 2005 was $25.2 million. This asset relates to the goodwill associated with the Company's acquisition of Universal Distribution Services ("UDS") in December 2000, including the earnout payment made to the former UDS shareholders in February 2002, and the acquisition of iFulfillment, Inc. in July 2001. The Company has intangible assets that were subject to amortization under the provisions of SFAS No. 142. The intangible assets consist of acquired customer contracts, which are included in other assets in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and which are amortized over a period of 1 to 5 years on a straight-line basis. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had intangible assets, consisting primarily of customer contracts, of approximately $0 and $185,000, net of accumulated amortization of approximately $1.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Amortization expense of these intangible assets amounted to approximately $185,000, $202,000 and $202,000 during the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The Company reviews long-lived assets and certain intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment would be measured based on a projected cash flow model. If the projected undiscounted cash flows for the asset are not in excess of the carrying value of the related asset, the impairment would be determined based upon the excess of the carrying value of the asset over the projected discounted cash flows for the asset. Accounting for Income Taxes. Innotrac utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if the Company considers it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. A valuation allowance has been recorded against deferred tax assets at December 31, 2005 (see Note 6). 34 Revenue Recognition. Innotrac derives its revenue primarily from two sources: (1) fulfillment operations and (2) the delivery of business services. Innotrac's fulfillment services operations record revenue at the conclusion of the material selection, packaging and shipping process. Innotrac's call center services business recognizes revenue according to written pricing agreements based on number of calls, minutes or hourly rate basis. All other revenues are recognized as services are rendered. As required by the consensus reached in Emerging Issue Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 99-19, revenues have been recorded net of the cost of the equipment for all fee-for-service clients. As required by the consensus reached in EITF No. 01-14, "Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out-of Pocket Expenses Incurred," the Company records reimbursements received from customers for out-of pocket expenses, primarily freight and postage fees, as revenue and the associated expense as cost of revenue. Cost of Revenues. The primary components of cost of revenues include labor costs for the fulfillment and call centers, telephone minute fees, and freight and packaging material costs. Costs related to facilities, equipment, account services and information technology are included in selling, general and administrative expense along with other operating costs. As a result of the Company's policy to include facility, account services and information technology costs in selling, general and administrative expense, our gross margins may not be comparable to other fulfillment companies. Stock-Based Compensation Plans. The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"). Since the exercise price for all options granted under those plans was equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant, no compensation cost is recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Had compensation cost for stock options been determined under a fair value based method, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, the Company's net loss and net loss per share would have been the following pro forma amounts (in 000's, except per share data):
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, --------------------------- 2005 2004 2003 ------- ------ -------- Net (loss) income as reported $(4,668) $ 110 $(11,981) Pro forma net loss $(8,025) $ (677) $(12,699) Basic net (loss) income per share as reported $ (0.38) $ 0.01 $ (1.04) Diluted net (loss) income per share as reported $ (0.38) $ 0.01 $ (1.04) Pro forma net loss per share $ (0.66) $(0.06) $ (1.10)
Under the fair value based method, compensation cost, net of tax is $3.4 million, $787,000 and $718,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. On December 31, 2005, in anticipation of the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006, the Board of Directors amended the terms of certain outstanding options to purchase the Company's common stock that the Company previously had granted. The amendments included accelerating the vesting date of 172,250 outstanding options to a vesting date of December 31, 2005 and re-pricing 834,450 out-of-the-money outstanding options to an exercise price of $4.56, the market value of the company's common stock on December 31, 2005, to better incentivize the holders of those options. Since the amended exercise price for the options was equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of amendment, no compensation cost was recognized as a result of these amendments. 35 The Company has computed for pro forma disclosure purposes the value of all options granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as prescribed by SFAS No. 123 using the following weighted average assumptions:
2005 2004 2003 --------- --------- --------- Risk-free interest rate 4.47% 4.23% 4.27% Expected dividend yield 0% 0% 0% Expected lives 2.1 Years 2.3 Years 2.6 Years Expected volatility 72.4% 75.1% 80.4%
The fair value of each option was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the above weighted average assumptions. The weighted average fair value of options granted was as follows:
2005 2004 2003 -------- ---------- -------- Per share option value $ 1.96 $ 4.78 $ 2.22 Aggregate total $849,200 $1,017,803 $266,028 ======== ========== ========
Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. In the computation of diluted earnings per share, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding is adjusted for the effect of all dilutive potential common stock equivalent shares. Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," which revises SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." The revised statement clarifies and expands SFAS No. 123's guidance in several areas, including measuring fair value, classifying an award as equity or as a liability, and attributing compensation cost to reporting periods. The revised statement supercedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"), and its related implementation guidance. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), the alternative to use APB 25's intrinsic value method of accounting that was provided in SFAS No. 123, as originally issued, is eliminated, and entities are required to measure liabilities incurred to employees in share-based payment transactions at fair value. The Company currently accounts for its stock-based compensation plans under APB 25. Since the exercise price for all options granted under those plans was equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant, no compensation cost is recognized. SFAS No. 123(R) will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2006. 3. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE Accounts receivable were composed of the following at December 31, 2005 and 2004 (in 000's):
2005 2004 ------- ------- Billed receivables $15,201 $19,449 Unbilled receivables 336 580 ------- ------- 15,537 20,029 Less: Allowance for doubtful accounts (2,791) (1,624) ------- ------- $12,745 $18,405 ======= =======
4. FINANCING OBLIGATIONS The Company recently renewed its revolving credit agreement to extend the facility for an additional three years, until March 2009. Although the facility has a maximum borrowing limit of $25.0 million, the credit facility limits borrowings to a specified percentage of eligible accounts receivable and inventory, which 36 totaled $11.9 million at December 31, 2005. The maximum borrowing amount of this facility was reduced from $40.0 million to $25.0 million in the third quarter of 2004 as the Company does not anticipate a need for the larger amount. The Company has granted a security interest in all of its assets to the lender as collateral under this revolving credit agreement. The revolving credit agreement contains restrictive fixed charge coverage ratio, change in ownership control and other covenants. The provisions of the revolving credit agreement require that the Company maintain a lockbox arrangement with the lender, and allows the lender to declare any outstanding borrowing amounts to be immediately due and payable as a result of noncompliance with any of the covenants. Accordingly, in the event of noncompliance, these amounts could be accelerated. As renewed, the facility requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of between 0.70 and 1.00 to 1.00, depending on the particular fiscal quarter, for each of the Company's quarters through the end of its fiscal year 2006, and a ratio of 1.15 to 1.00 thereafter. Although, at December 31, 2005 the Company was not in compliance with the then-current fixed charge coverage ratio requirement of 1.30 to 1.00, or with a then-existing tangible net worth requirement (which has been eliminated from the new facility), the Company received a waiver of such noncompliance from the bank. The Company's fixed charge ratio at December 31, 2005 was 1.18 to 1.00. Interest on borrowings is payable monthly at rates equal to the prime rate, or at the Company's option, LIBOR plus up to 200 basis points. During the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 the Company incurred interest expense related to the line of credit of approximately $87,000, $111,000 and $704,000, respectively, resulting in a weighted average interest rate of 5.01%, 3.48% and 3.80%, respectively. At December 31, 2005, the Company had $11.9 million of additional availability under the revolving credit agreement. 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Operating Leases. Innotrac leases office and warehouse space and equipment under various operating leases. The primary office and warehouse operating leases provide for escalating payments over the lease term. Innotrac recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Aggregate future minimum lease payments under noncancellable operating leases with original periods in excess of one year as of December 31, 2005 are as follows (in 000's):
OPERATING LEASES --------- 2006 .......................... $ 9,672 2007 .......................... 9,914 2008 .......................... 5,018 2009 .......................... 2,957 2010 .......................... 2,362 Thereafter .................... 793 ------- Total minimum lease payments .. $30,716 =======
Rent expense under all operating leases totaled approximately $8.7 million, $8.6 million and $8.1 million during the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Legal Proceedings. The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company is a party. Shareholder Rights Plan. In December of 1997, the Company's Board of Directors approved a Shareholder Rights Plan (the "Rights Plan"). The Rights Plan provides for the distribution of one Right for each outstanding share of the Company's Common Stock held of record as of the close of business on January 1, 1998 or that thereafter becomes outstanding prior to the earlier of the final expiration date of the Rights or 37 the first date upon which the Rights become exercisable. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth of a share of Series A Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock, par value $.10 per share, at a price of $60.00 (the "Purchase Price"), subject to adjustment. The Rights are not exercisable until ten calendar days after a person or group (an "Acquiring Person") buys, or announces a tender offer for, 15% or more of the Company's Common Stock. Such ownership level has been increased to 40% for a particular shareholder that owned approximately 34.0% of the shares outstanding on December 31, 2005. In the event the Rights become exercisable, each Right will entitle the holder to receive that number of shares of Common Stock having a market value equal to the Purchase Price. If, after any person has become an Acquiring Person (other than through a tender offer approved by qualifying members of the Board of Directors), the Company is involved in a merger or other business combination where the Company is not the surviving corporation, or the Company sells 50% or more of its assets, operating income, or cash flow, then each Right will entitle the holder to purchase, for the Purchase Price, that number of shares of common or other capital stock of the acquiring entity which at the time of such transaction have a market value of twice the Purchase Price. The Rights will expire on January 1, 2008, unless extended, unless the Rights are earlier exchanged, or unless the Rights are earlier redeemed by the Company in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.001 per Right. Employment Commitment. In June 1999, in conjunction with the opening of a new call center facility, the Company entered into an Employment Commitment Agreement with the City of Pueblo, Colorado, whereby the Company received cash incentives of $968,000. These funds were accounted for as a reduction in the basis of the assets acquired. In return for this consideration, the Company is obligated to employ a minimum number of full-time employees at its Pueblo facility, measured on a quarterly basis. This obligation, which became effective June 2002, will continue through June 2009. In the event that the number of full-time employees fails to meet the minimum requirement, the Company will incur a quarterly penalty of $96.30 for each employee less than the minimum required amount. During 2005, 2004 and 2003, the Company did not meet the minimum employee requirements of 359 full-time employees, as measured on a quarterly basis, incurring a penalty of approximately $11,000, $17,000 and $11,000, respectively. 6. INCOME TAXES Details of the income tax benefit (provision) for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 are as follows (in 000's):
2005 2004 2003 ---- ---- ------- Current $-- $-- $ (232) Deferred -- -- (8,540) --- --- ------- $-- $-- $(8,772) === === =======
38 Deferred income taxes reflect the net effect of the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 are as follows (in 000's):
2005 2004 -------- ------- Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforwards $ 14,317 $12,120 Allowance for doubtful accounts 1,019 619 Reserves 215 2 Other 58 9 -------- ------- Total deferred tax assets 15,609 12,750 Valuation allowance (12,187) (9,680) -------- ------- Net deferred tax assets 3,422 3,070 Deferred tax liabilities: Goodwill (2,318) (1,749) Depreciation (1,104) (1,321) -------- ------- Net deferred taxes -- -- Net deferred taxes: Current deferred tax assets -- -- Noncurrent deferred tax assets -- -- -------- ------- $ -- $ -- ======== =======
Innotrac utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if the Company considers it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. Innotrac's gross deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2005 is approximately $15.6 million. This deferred tax asset was generated primarily by net operating loss carryforwards created primarily by the special charge of $34.3 million recorded in 2000 and the net losses generated in 2002 and 2003 and 2005. Innotrac has a tax net operating loss carryforward of $37.5 million at December 31, 2005 that expires between 2020 and 2025. Innotrac's ability to generate the expected amounts of taxable income from future operations is dependent upon general economic conditions, collection of existing outstanding accounts receivable, competitive pressures on sales and margins and other factors beyond management's control. These factors, combined with losses in recent years, creates uncertainty about the ultimate realization of the gross deferred tax asset in future years. Therefore, a valuation allowance of approximately $12.2 million and $9.7 million has been recorded as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Income taxes associated with future earnings will be offset by a reduction in the valuation allowance. For the year ended December 31, 2005, the deferred income tax benefit of $2.5 million was offset by a corresponding increase of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance. When, and if, the Company can return to consistent profitability and management determines that it will be able to utilize the deferred tax assets prior to their expiration, the valuation allowance can be reduced or eliminated. 39 The difference between the provision for income taxes (benefit) and the amount computed by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 is as follows:
2005 2004 2003 ------- ----- ------- Statutory federal income tax (benefit) $(1,624) $ 37 $(1,091) State income taxes, net of federal effect (125) 4 (106) Permanent book-tax differences (179) 69 109 Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets 1,928 (110) 9,882 Other -- -- (22) ------- ----- ------- Income tax provision (benefit) $ -- $ -- $ 8,772 ======= ===== =======
7. EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table shows the shares used in computing diluted earnings per share ("EPS") in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (in 000's):
2005 2004 2003 ------ ------ ------ Diluted earnings per share: Weighted average shares outstanding 12,196 11,865 11,542 Employee and director stock options -- 657 -- ------ ------ ------ Weighted average shares assuming dilution 12,196 12,522 11,542 ====== ====== ======
Options and warrants outstanding to purchase shares of the Company's common stock aggregating 1.7 million, 87,500 and 1.9 million were not included in the computation of diluted EPS for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively, because their effect was anti-dilutive. This includes a warrant with registration rights issued to Thane International in December 2000 to purchase 150,000 shares of Innotrac common stock at the exercise price of $6.50, which vests 20% annually, which expires December 8, 2010. On December 31, 2005, in anticipation of the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006, the Board of Directors amended the terms of certain outstanding options to purchase the Company's common stock that the Company previously had granted. The amendments included accelerating the vesting date of 172,250 outstanding options to a vesting date of December 31, 2005 and re-pricing 834,450 out-of-the-money outstanding options to an exercise price of $4.56, the market value of the company's common stock on December 31, 2005, to better incentivize the holders of those options. Since the amended exercise price for the options was equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of amendment, no compensation cost was recognized as a result of these amendments. 40 8. OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," established standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in financial statements. For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, the components of the Company's comprehensive loss are as follows (in 000's):
Year Ended December 31, ------------------------- 2005 2004 2003 ------- ---- -------- Other comprehensive loss: Net (loss) income $(4,668) $110 $(11,981) Unrealized gain -- -- -- Reclassification adjustment for realized gains included in consolidated statement of operations -- -- -- ------- ---- -------- Comprehensive (loss) income $(4,668) $110 $(11,981) ======= ==== ========
9. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY In June 2000, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, at the direction of senior management, of up to $5.0 million of the Company's common stock. The stock repurchase program was extended for an additional twelve months by the Board of Directors in February 2002. During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 the Company did not repurchase shares. At December 31, 2003, all treasury shares previously repurchased had been reissued for stock options exercised during 2003, and accordingly no treasury stock remains. 10. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLANS Innotrac employees may participate in a 401(k) defined contribution plan. The plan covers all employees who have at least six months of service and are 18 years of age or older. Participants may elect to defer up to 15% of compensation up to a maximum amount determined annually pursuant to IRS regulations. Prior to July 1, 2004, Innotrac's policy was to provide matching employer contributions equal to 15% of contributions for less than five years of service, 25% of contributions for five to nine years of service, and 35% of contributions for over nine years of service. However, this match was suspended from January 1, 2002 through June 30, 2002, reinstituted from July 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002 and was temporarily suspended thereafter. Effective July 1, 2004 and through December 31, 2004, Innotrac reinstituted a matching employer contribution equal to 5% of contributions for less than five years of service, 10% of contributions for five to nine years of service and 15% of contributions for over nine years of service. These rates were adjusted effective January 1, 2005 to 5% of contributions for less than four years of service and 10% of contributions for over four years of service. Total matching contributions made to the plan and charged to expense by Innotrac for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 were approximately $42,000, $16,000 and $0, respectively. The Company has an executive deferred compensation plan for certain employees, as designated by the Company's Board of Directors. Participants may elect to defer up to 30% of compensation. Innotrac's policy is to provide matching employer contributions ranging from 20% to 100% of employee contributions based on years of service. However, this match was suspended for 2005, 2004 and 2003. The Company invests these contributions in employee-directed marketable equity securities which are recorded as trading securities at fair-market value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet (in other assets) and aggregated $884,889 and $874,865 at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The monies held by the plan are subject to general creditors of the Company in the event of a Company bankruptcy filing. 41 11. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION The Company has adopted two stock option plans: the 1997 and 2000 Stock Option and Incentive Award Plans ("The Plans"). The Plans provide key employees, officers, directors, contractors and consultants an opportunity to own shares of common stock of the Company and to provide incentives for such persons to promote the financial success of the Company. Awards under The Plans may be structured in a variety of ways, including as "incentive stock options," as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards, and stock appreciation rights ("SARs"). Incentive stock options may be granted only to full-time employees (including officers) of the Company. Non-qualified options, restricted stock awards, SARs, and other permitted forms of awards may be granted to any person employed by or performing services for the Company, including directors, contractors and consultants. The 1997 Stock Option Plan and 2000 Stock Option Plan, as amended, provide for the issuance of options to purchase up to an aggregate of 800,000 shares and 2,800,000 shares of common stock, respectively. At December 31, 2005, there were 1,237,850 shares available to be issued under The Plans. On December 31, 2005, in anticipation of the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006, the Board of Directors amended the terms of certain outstanding options to purchase the Company's common stock that the Company previously had granted. The amendments included accelerating the vesting date of 172,250 outstanding options to a vesting date of December 31, 2005 and re-pricing 834,450 out-of-the-money outstanding options to an exercise price of $4.56, the market value of the company's common stock on December 31, 2005, to better incentivize the holders of those options. Since the amended exercise price for the options was equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of amendment, no compensation cost was recognized as a result of these amendments. Incentive stock options are also subject to certain limitations prescribed by the Code, including the requirement that such options may not be granted to employees who own more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of voting stock of the Company, unless the option price is at least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock subject to the option. The Board of Directors of the Company (or a committee designated by the Board) otherwise generally has discretion to set the terms and conditions of options and other awards, including the term, exercise price and vesting conditions, if any; to select the persons who receive such grants and awards; and to interpret and administer The Plans. A summary of the options outstanding and exercisable by price range as of December 31, 2005 is as follows (shares in 000's):

Options exercisable at December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 were 1,476,000, 995,000 and 764,000 respectively, with a weighted average price of $5.29, $6.46 and $7.07, respectively. 12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Company leases a single engine aircraft from a company wholly-owned by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, pursuant to an agreement that provides for Innotrac to pay for 86% of all expenses associated with this aircraft. This allocation is determined annually based on actual business usage. The Company paid approximately $187,000 during 2005. For the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company paid $205,000 and $134,000, respectively. The Company paid approximately $29,000, $29,000 and $83,000 during 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively, in fees to an accounting firm for tax and consulting services. One of the directors of the Company is the Managing Partner and part owner of that firm. The Company paid approximately $239,000, $527,000 and $863,000 during 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively, in fees to a print broker for services related to the printing of marketing, client, inter-company and other materials. The broker is owned by the brother of the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. In 2003, the Company and the IPOF Group (consisting of IPOF Fund, LP and its general partner, David Dadante), which as of December 31, 2005 beneficially owned approximately 4.2 million shares of Common Stock, entered into an amended Agreement to permit the IPOF Group to acquire up to 40% of the Common Stock on the terms set forth in that Agreement without becoming an "Acquiring Person" under the Company's Rights Agreement with SunTrust Bank. The Agreement with the IPOF Group contains various restrictions on the IPOF's Group right to vote and take certain other shareholder actions. Among these restrictions, the IPOF Group agreed to vote all shares in excess of 15% proportionately with vote(s) cast by the other shareholders of the Company and not seek to place a representative on the Company's Board or seek to remove any member of the Board. The IPOF Group further acknowledged that it is an "affiliate," as defined under applicable federal securities law. During 2004, the Company became aware of possible IPOF Group violations of the short-swing profit rules under Section 16(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Upon conclusion of the investigation of this matter, the Company and IPOF Group, on March 3, 2004, entered into a Settlement Agreement regarding the potential Section 16(b) liability issues that provides for the Company's recovery in 2006 of $301,957. 43 The United States District Court in Cleveland, Ohio has appointed a receiver to identify and administer the assets of the IPOF Fund, L.P. and its general partner, Mr. David Dadante. Based on information from the receiver, the Company understands that the Fund and Mr. Dadante own 4,176,725 shares of common stock of the Company, representing approximately 34.0% of the total shares outstanding, all of which are held as collateral in margin accounts maintained at several financial institutions. The Company has been engaged in discussions with the receiver in an effort to cause the shares to be sold in a manner that causes as little disruption to the market for Company stock as possible. The Federal Court has prohibited the financial institutions holding Company stock owned by the IPOF Fund and Mr. Dadante in margin accounts from selling any of these shares through at least July 14, 2006. The court has permitted open market sales by the receiver as he may in his sole discretion determine to be consistent with his duty to maximize the value of the assets of IPOF Fund, and as warranted by market conditions. The receiver has indicated to the Company that he does not intend to direct any open market sales during this period except in circumstances in which he believes that there would be no material adverse impact on the market price for the Company's shares. 13.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE None. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in federal securities rules) as of December 31, 2005. No system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system of controls are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the system of controls has operated effectively in all cases. Our disclosure controls and procedures however are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met. Based on the evaluation discussed above, our CEO and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the date of that evaluation to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met. 44 There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Innotrac's internal control over financial reporting.

Payment items received into the Collections Account shall be applied by Bank on account of the Loans on the Business Day after deposited by Borrower, subject to chargebacks for uncollected payment items, and if no Event of Default exists and no Loans are then outstanding or have been repaid, Bank shall pay over such of the proceeds of such payments to a Deposit Account maintained by Borrower at Bank and designated in writing by Borrower. No payment item received by Bank shall constitute payment to Bank until such item is actually collected by Bank and credited to the Collections Account; provided, however, that Bank shall have the right to charge back to the Collections Account (or any other account of Borrower maintained at Bank) an item which is returned for inability to collect, plus accrued interest during the period of Bank's provisional credit for such item prior to receiving notice of dishonor. 2.3 INTEREST. Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of all unpaid principal amounts of the Loans from the respective dates such principal amounts are advanced until paid (whether at stated maturity, on acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the applicable rate indicated below: 2.3.1 LMIR Loans. Except as set forth in Section 2.3.2, all Loans shall constitute LMIR Loans and shall bear interest at the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time for such LMIR Loans plus the LIBOR Market Index Rate in effect from time to time. The LIBOR Market Index Rate on the date hereof is 4.63% per annum and, therefore, the rate of interest in effect hereunder on the date hereof, expressed in simple interest terms, is 4.63% per annum with respect to any portion of the Loans bearing interest as a LMIR Loan. 2.3.2 Base Rate Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if (a) Borrower should request or (b) Bank should at any time determine that (i) it is not possible to determine the LIBOR Market Index Rate or (ii) that the LIBOR Market Index Rate is no longer available or (iii) a Default or Event of Default exists, then all Loans shall constitute Base Rate Loans and shall bear interest at the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time for such Base Rate Loans plus the Base Rate in effect from time to time. 2.4 INTEREST RATE ADJUSTMENTS. 2.4.1 Base Rate Loan. When a Base Rate Loan is selected, the interest rate shall be adjusted from time to time, effective as of the date of each change in the Base Rate, and the Base Rate shall continue to apply until another interest rate option is selected by Borrower for that Loan. 13 2.4.2 LMIR Loan. When a LMIR Loan is selected, the interest rate shall be adjusted daily as applicable to reflect the LIBOR Market Index Rate then in effect and the LIBOR Market Index Rate shall continue to apply until another interest rate option is selected by Borrower for that Loan. 2.5 NOTICE AND MANNER OF BORROWING AND RATE CONVERSION. 2.5.1 Loans. Borrower shall give Bank irrevocable telephonic notice of each proposed Loan or permitted rate conversion not later than 11:00 a.m. (local time in Atlanta, Georgia) (a) on the same business day as each proposed Loan or rate conversion to a Base Rate Loan or a LMIR Loan. Each such notice shall specify (i) the date of such Loan or rate conversion, which shall be a Business Day, (ii) the amount of each Loan or the amount to be converted, and (iii) the interest rate selected by Borrower from the interest rate options set forth in this Agreement. Notices received after 11:00 a.m. (local time in Atlanta, Georgia) shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Bank's acceptance of such a request shall be indicated by its making the Loan requested. Such a Loan shall be made available to Borrower in immediately available funds by deposit into the Disbursement Account. 2.5.2 Additional Provisions for Requests for Loans. Bank, in its discretion, may require from Borrower a signed written request for a Loan in form of a Notice of Borrowing satisfactory to Bank, which request shall be irrevocable and shall be delivered to Bank no later than 11:00 a.m. (local time in Atlanta, Georgia) on the date determined in accordance with Section 2.5.1, and shall set forth the calculation of the Borrowing Base and a reconciliation to the previous request or Borrowing Base Certificate, specify the information required by Section 2.5.1 for the proposed Loan and provide such other information as Bank may require.

(b) Subject to subsection 2.5.2(c) below, the presentation for payment of any check or other item of payment drawn on the Disbursement Account at a time when there are insufficient funds in such account to cover such item shall be deemed irrevocably to be a request (without any requirement for the submission of a Notice of Borrowing) for Loans on the date of such presentation in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the items presented for payment, and Bank may disburse the proceeds of such Loans to the Disbursement Account and such Loans shall bear interest as Base Rate Loans. (c) Bank shall have no obligation to Borrower to honor any deemed request for a Loan under Section 2.5.2(a) or Section 2.5.2(b) above after the Termination Date or when the principal amount of such Loan, when added to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Loans and the Letter of Credit Obligations would exceed the lesser of the Revolver Commitment and the Borrowing Base at such time or when any condition precedent in Section 3.2 hereof is not satisfied, but may do so in its sole and absolute discretion and without regard to the existence of, and without being deemed to have waived, any Default or Event of Default. 2.5.3 Excess Outstandings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make or permit to remain outstanding Loans which, when added to the principal amount of all other Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations, exceed the Revolver Commitment 14 or the Borrowing Base, and all such amounts shall (i) be part of the Obligations evidenced by the Revolver Note, (ii) bear interest as provided herein, (iii) be payable upon demand by Bank, and (iv) be secured by the Collateral and be entitled to all rights and security as provided under the Loan Documents. 2.6 REPAYMENT OF LOANS. 2.6.1 Repayment of Loans.

Bank may apply all proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral received by Bank and all other payments in respect of the Obligations to the Loans whether or not then due or to any other Obligations then due, in whatever order or manner Bank shall determine. In any event, the outstanding principal amount of Loans shall be due and payable on the Termination Date. Unless otherwise specified by Borrower, all principal repayment of Loans shall be applied by Bank first to outstanding Base Rate Loans, and then to outstanding LMIR Loans. (b) Interest accrued on the Loans shall be due and payable on (i) the first day of each month for the immediately preceding month), computed through the last calendar day of the preceding month whether a Base Rate Loan or a LMIR Loan; and (ii) on the Termination Date. 2.7 ADDITIONAL PAYMENT PROVISIONS. 2.7.1 Payment of Other Obligations. The balance of the Obligations under the Loan Documents requiring the payment of money shall be repaid by Borrower to Bank as and when provided in the relevant Loan Documents, or, if no date of payment is otherwise specified in the Loan Documents, on demand. 2.7.2 Authorization to Debit. Bank may debit the Disbursement Account, the Collections Account and any account subject to Bank's control (as such term is used in Article 9 of the Code) and/or make Loans to Borrower (whether or not in excess of the lesser of the Revolver Commitment and the Borrowing Base) and apply such amounts to the payment of interest, fees, expenses and other amounts to which Bank may be entitled from time to time and Bank is hereby irrevocably authorized to do so without the consent of Borrower. 2.7.3 Time and Location of Payment.

If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time. 2.7.4 Excess Over Borrowing Base.

Any prepayment of any Loans shall not affect Borrower's obligation to continue making payments under any Swap Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such prepayment, subject to the terms of such Swap Agreement. 15 2.7.6 Capital Requirements. If either (a) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any applicable law or (b) compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or comparable agency or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of, or has affected or would affect the amount of capital required to be maintained by Bank or any corporation controlling Bank as a consequence of, or with reference to, the Revolver Commitment and other commitments of this type, below the rate which Bank or such other corporation could have achieved by for such introduction, change or compliance, then within five (5) Business Days after written demand by Bank, Borrower shall pay to Bank from time to time as specified by Bank additional amounts sufficient to compensate Bank or such other corporation for such reduction. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to Borrower by Bank shall, in the absence of manifest error, be presumed to be correct and binding for all purposes. 2.8 DEFAULT RATE. In addition to all other rights contained in the Loan Documents, if an Event of Default occurs, the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations, other than Obligations under any Swap Agreements between Borrower and Bank or its affiliates, may, at Bank's option, bear interest at the Default Rate.

Each of Borrower and each other Person which is a party to any Loan Document (other than Bank) has the power to make and perform the Loan Documents executed by it and all such instruments will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Person, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject only to bankruptcy and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally. Borrower is organized under the laws of the State of Georgia and has not changed the jurisdiction of its organization within the five years preceding the date hereof except as previously reported to Bank in writing. 4.2 AUTHORITY.

All such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and, together with the notes thereto, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of Borrower, Subsidiary or Guarantor, as the case may be, as of the date thereof in accordance with GAAP. Borrower is not aware of any material adverse fact (other than facts which are generally available to the public and not particular to Borrower, such as general economic trends) concerning the condition (financial or otherwise) or future prospects of Borrower or any Subsidiary or any Guarantor which has not been fully disclosed to Bank, including any adverse change in the operations or financial condition of such Person since the date of the most recent financial statements delivered to Bank.

(b) Without waiving any of its other rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document, Bank shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code (and the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction) and such other rights and remedies as may be available hereunder, under other applicable law or pursuant to contract. If requested by Bank, Borrower will promptly assemble the Collateral and make it available to Bank at a place to be designated by Bank. Borrower agrees that any notice by Bank of the sale or disposition of the Collateral or any other intended action hereunder, whether required by the Code or otherwise, shall constitute reasonable notice to Borrower if the notice is mailed to Borrower by regular or certified mail, postage prepaid, at least five days before the action to be taken. Borrower shall be liable for any deficiencies in the event the proceeds of the disposition of the Collateral do not satisfy the Obligations in full. (c) Bank may demand, collect and sue for all amounts owed pursuant to Accounts, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper, Instruments, Documents or for proceeds of any Collateral (either in Borrower's name or Bank's name at the latter's option), with the right to enforce, compromise, settle or discharge any such amounts. 8.3 RECEIVER. In addition to any other remedy available to it, Bank shall have the absolute right, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to seek and obtain the appointment of a receiver to take possession of and operate and/or dispose of the business and assets of Borrower and any costs and expenses incurred by Bank in connection with such receivership shall bear interest at the Default Rate, at Bank's option, and shall be secured by all Collateral. 8.4 DEPOSITS; INSURANCE. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower authorizes Bank to collect and apply against the Obligations when due any cash or Deposit Accounts in its possession, and any refund of insurance premiums or any insurance proceeds payable on account of the loss or damage to any of the Collateral and irrevocably appoints Bank as its attorney in fact to endorse any check or draft or take other action necessary to obtain such funds. 33 9. SECURITY AGREEMENT. 9.1 SECURITY INTEREST. (a) As security for the payment and performance of any and all Obligations and the performance of all obligations and covenants of Borrower to Bank and its Affiliates, whether hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, Swap Agreements between Bank or any Affiliate of Bank and Borrower or otherwise, certain or contingent, now existing or hereafter arising, which are now, or may at any time or times hereafter be owing by Borrower to Bank or any of Bank's Affiliates, Borrower hereby grants to Bank (for itself and its Affiliates) a continuing security interest in and general lien upon and right of set off against, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by Borrower. (b) Except as herein or by applicable law otherwise expressly provided, Bank shall not be obligated to exercise any degree of care in connection with any Collateral in its possession, to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights in any of the Collateral or to preserve any rights therein against prior parties, and Borrower agrees to take such steps. In any case Bank shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care if it shall have taken such steps for the care and preservation of the Collateral or rights therein as Borrower may have reasonably requested Bank to take and Bank's omission to take any action not requested by Borrower shall not be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care. No segregation or specific allocation by Bank of specified items of Collateral against any liability of Borrower shall waive or affect any security interest in or Lien against other items of Collateral or any of Bank's options, powers or rights under this Agreement or otherwise arising. (c) Bank may at any time and from time to time, with or without notice to Borrower during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) transfer into the name of Bank or the name of Bank's nominee any of the Collateral, (ii) notify any Account Debtor or other obligor of any Collateral to make payment thereon direct to Bank of any amounts due or to become due thereon and (iii) receive and direct the disposition of any proceeds of any Collateral. (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Account, Instrument, Chattel Paper or other obligation or property of any kind due from, owed by or belonging to, a Sanctioned Person or (ii) any lease in which the lessee is a Sanctioned Person shall be Collateral or shall be credited toward the payment of the Obligations. 9.2 FINANCING STATEMENTS; POWER OF ATTORNEY. Borrower authorizes Bank at Borrower's expense to file any financing statements and/or amendments thereto relating to the Collateral (without Borrower's signature thereon) which Bank deems appropriate that (a) indicate the Collateral (i) as "all assets" of Borrower or words of similar effect, if appropriate, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the Code, or (ii) by specific Collateral category, and (b) provide any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Code for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment. Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank as its attorney in fact to execute any such financing statements and/or control agreements in Borrower's name and to perform all other acts, at Borrower's expense, which Bank deems necessary to perfect and to continue perfection of the security interest of Bank. Borrower hereby appoints Bank as Borrower's attorney in fact to endorse, present and collect on behalf of Borrower and in Borrower's name any draft, checks or other documents necessary or desirable to collect any amounts which Borrower may be owed. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks and advertising matter, or any Property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and Borrower's rights 34 under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Bank's benefit. The proceeds realized from the sale or other disposition of any Collateral may be applied, after allowing two (2) Business Days for collection, first to the reasonable costs, expenses and attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by Bank for collection and for acquisition, completion, protection, removal, storage, sale and delivering of the Collateral; second, to interest due upon any of the Obligations; third, to the principal amount of the Obligations and to any other Obligations then outstanding; and fourth to any other Person as required by applicable law. If any deficiency shall arise, Borrower and each Guarantor shall remain jointly and severally liable to Bank therefor. 9.3 ENTRY. Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to any act by Bank or its agents in entering upon any premises for the purposes of either (i) inspecting the Collateral or (ii) during the continuance of an Event of Default, taking possession of the Collateral and Borrower hereby waives its right to assert against Bank or its agents any claim based upon trespass or any similar cause of action, to the extent that Bank has acted in accordance with this Section 9.3, for entering upon any premises where the Collateral may be located. 9.4 OTHER RIGHTS. Borrower authorizes Bank without affecting Borrower's obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document from time to time (i) to take from any party and hold additional Collateral or guaranties for the payment of the Obligations or any part thereof, and to exchange, enforce or release such collateral or guaranty of payment of the Obligations or any part thereof and to release or substitute any endorser or guarantor or any party who has given any security interest in any collateral as security for the payment of the Obligations or any part thereof or any party in any way obligated to pay the Obligations or any part thereof; and (ii) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default to direct the manner of the disposition of the Collateral and the enforcement of any endorsements, guaranties, letters of credit or other security relating to the Obligations or any part thereof as Bank in its sole discretion may determine. 9.5 ACCOUNTS. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may notify any Account Debtor of Bank's security interest and may direct such Account Debtor to make payment directly to Bank for application against the Obligations. Any such payments received by or on behalf of Borrower at any time, during the continuance of an Event of Default, shall be the property of Bank, shall be held in trust for Bank and not commingled with any other assets of any Person (except to the extent they may be commingled with other assets of Borrower in an account with Bank) and shall be immediately delivered to Bank in the form received. 9.6 WAIVER OF MARSHALING. Borrower hereby waives any right it may have to require marshaling of its assets. 9.7 CONTROL. Borrower will cooperate with Bank in obtaining control of, or control agreements with respect to, Collateral for which control or a control agreement is required for perfection of the Bank's security interest under the Code. 10. MISCELLANEOUS. 10.1 NO WAIVER, REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No failure on the part of Bank to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are in addition to any other remedies provided by law, any Loan Document or otherwise. 35 10.2 SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS. All representations and warranties made herein shall survive the making of the Loan hereunder and the delivery of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Obligations is outstanding, there exists any commitment by Bank to Borrower, and until this Agreement is formally terminated in writing. 10.3 INDEMNITY BY BORROWER; EXPENSES. In addition to all other Obligations, Borrower agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless Bank and its Affiliates and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants and agents from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fines, fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' and paralegals' fees, costs and expenses, and fees, costs and expenses for investigations and experts) incurred by such indemnitees, whether prior to or from and after the date hereof, as a result of or arising from or relating to (i) the due diligence effort (including, without limitation, public record search, recording fees, examinations and investigations of the properties of Borrower and Borrower's operations), negotiation, preparation, execution and/or performance of any of the Loan Documents or of any document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby and the perfection of Bank's Liens in the Collateral, maintenance of the Loan by Bank, and any and all amendments, modifications, and supplements of any of the Loan Documents or restructuring of the Obligations, (ii) any suit, investigation, action or proceeding by any Person (other than Borrower), whether threatened or initiated, asserting a claim for any legal or equitable remedy against any Person under any statute, regulation or common law principle, arising from or in connection with Bank's furnishing of funds to Borrower under this Agreement, (iii) Bank's preservation, administration and enforcement of its rights under the Loan Documents and applicable law, including the 15% of the outstanding Obligations as attorneys fees if collected by or through an attorney at law] and disbursements of counsel for Bank in connection therewith, whether suit be brought or not and whether incurred at trial or on appeal, and all costs of repossession, storage, disposition, protection and collection of Collateral, (iv) periodic field exams, audits and appraisals performed by Bank pursuant to Section 5.5 hereof;(v) any civil penalty or fine assessed by OFAC against Bank or any Affiliate of Bank and all reasonable costs and expense (including counsel fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with defense thereof by Bank or such Affiliate, as a result of the funding of Loans or the extension of credit, the acceptance of payments due under the Loan Documents or any Swap Agreement or acceptance of Collateral, and/or (vi) any matter relating to the financing transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or by any document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby; but in all instances, other than for such loss, damage, liability, obligation, penalty, fee, cost or expense arising from such indemnitee's gross negligence or willful misconduct. If Borrower should fail to pay any tax or other amount required by this Agreement to be paid or which may be reasonably necessary to protect or preserve any Collateral or Borrower's or Bank's interests therein, Bank may make such payment and the amount thereof shall be payable on demand, may at Bank's option be debited against any Deposit Account of Borrower at Bank or converted to a Loan hereunder, shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of demand until paid and shall be deemed to be Obligations entitled to the benefit and security of the Loan Documents.

Tenant shall also agree to follow Landlord's reasonable procedures for auditing such books and records. Landlord and Tenant shall act reasonably in assessing the other party's calculation of the Annual Rental Adjustment, Tenant shall endeavor to provide Landlord with a copy of its findings within thirty (30) days after completion of the audit, but shall in any case provide such copy within ten (10) days after Tenant's receipt of such findings. Tenant's failure to exercise its rights hereunder within the Inspection Period shall be deemed a waiver of its right to inspect or contest the method, accuracy or amount of such Annual Rental Adjustment. (b) If Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord's calculation of the Annual Rental Adjustment for the inspected calendar year was incorrect, the parties shall enter into a written agreement confirming such undisputed error and then Landlord shall make a correcting payment in full to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the determination of the amount of such error or credit such amount against future Additional Rent if Tenant overpaid such amount, and Tenant shall pay Landlord within thirty (30) days after the determination of such error if Tenant underpaid such amount. If Tenant provides Landlord with written notice disputing the correctness of Landlord's statement, and if such dispute shall have not been settled by agreement within thirty (30) days after Tenant provides Landlord with such written notice, either Tenant or Landlord may submit the dispute to a reputable firm of independent certified public accountants selected by Tenant and Landlord, and the decision of such accountants shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. If such accountants decide that there was an error, Landlord will make a correcting payment if Tenant overpaid such amount, and Tenant shall pay Landlord if Tenant underpaid such amount. The fees and expenses involved in such decision shall be borne equally by the parties; provided if one party is required to pay the other an amount that is more than ten percent (10%) of the amount such party asserted it owed, or less than ten percent (10%) of the amount such party asserted it was entitled to receive, such party shall pay all of such fees and expenses. (c) All of the information obtained through Tenant's inspection (including, without limitation, costs, expenses and income) as well as any compromise, settlement or adjustment reached between Landlord and Tenant relative to the results of the inspection shall be held in strict confidence by -7- Tenant and its officers, agents, and employees; and Tenant shall cause its independent representatives to be similarly bound.

ARTICLE 4 - SECURITY DEPOSIT Upon execution and delivery of this Lease by Tenant, Tenant shall deposit the Security Deposit with Landlord as security for the performance by Tenant of all of Tenant's obligations contained in this Lease. In the event of a default by Tenant, Landlord may apply ail or any part of the Security Deposit to cure all or any part of such default; provided, however, that any such application by Landlord shall not be or be deemed to be an election of remedies by Landlord or considered or deemed to be liquidated damages. Tenant agrees promptly, upon demand, to deposit such additional sum with Landlord as may be required to maintain the full amount of the Security Deposit. All sums held by Landlord pursuant to this Article 4 shall be without interest and may be commingled by Landlord. At the end of the Lease Term, Landlord shall return the Security Deposit to Tenant or so much thereof as remains after application to cure any uncured default or pay for repairs required to be made by Tenant pursuant to Section 2.03 above or Section 7.02 below.

(b) Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Leased Premises that will in any way cause a nuisance, obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Park or injure them; provided that the ordinary and customary operations of Tenant's business shall not in themselves be deemed a nuisance, obstruction or interference. Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for the non-performance by any other tenant or occupant of die Building of any of Landlord's directions, rules and regulations, but agrees that any enforcement thereof shall be done uniformly. Tenant shall not overload the floors of the Leased Premises. All damage to the floor structure or foundation of the Building to the extent due to improper positioning or storage of items or materials, but not to the extent due to a construction defect, shall be repaired by Landlord at the sole expense of Tenant, who shall reimburse Landlord immediately therefor upon demand. Landlord warrants that the load bearing capacity for the Leased Premises is as set forth in EXHIBIT E hereto and Landlord shall not be responsible for Tenant's failure to abide by such capacity. Tenant shall not use the Leased Premises, nor allow the Leased Premises to be used, for any purpose or in any manner that would (i) invalidate any policy of insurance now or hereafter carried by Landlord on the Building, or (ii) increase the rate of premiums payable on any such insurance policy unless Tenant reimburses Landlord for any increase in premium charged.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall make commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant's access or use of the Leased Premises when exercising its rights under this Section 5.03. This provision is subject to Section 16.11.

Landlord shall not be liable in damages or otherwise for any failure or interruption of any utility or other Building service and no such failure or interruption shall entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease or withhold sums due hereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly restore utility service and in the event restoration of service is within Landlord's control and Landlord negligently fails to restore such service within a reasonable time, thereby causing the Leased Premises to be rendered untenantable (meaning that Tenant is unable to use such space in the then normal course of its business in the Leased Premises) by Tenant for the use permitted under this Lease for more than ten (10) consecutive days, or three (3) consecutive business days if such interruption is the result of a defect in the installation of such utility service that was a part of the Work, after notice from Tenant to Landlord that such service has been interrupted and a reasonable opportunity for Landlord to restore such service. Minimum Annual Rent and Annual Rental Adjustment shall abate on a per diem basis for each day after such ten (10) day or three (3) business day period, as the case may be, during which the Leased Premises remain untenantable.

The special form coverage insurance policies maintained by Landlord and Tenant as provided in this Lease shall include an endorsement containing an express waiver of any rights of subrogation by the insurance company against Landlord and Tenant, as applicable. ARTICLE 9-CASUALTY In the event of total or partial destruction of the Building or the Leased Premises by fire or other casualty, Landlord agrees promptly to restore and repair same; provided, however, Landlord's obligation hereunder with respect to the Leased Premises shall be limited to the reconstruction of such of the leasehold improvements as were originally required to be made by Landlord pursuant to Section 2.02 above, if any. Rent shall proportionately abate during the time that the Leased Premises or part thereof are unusable because of any such damage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Leased Premises are (a) so destroyed that they cannot be repaired or rebuilt to a condition in which Tenant can resume the Permitted Use within the Leased Premises to the extent existing prior to the casualty within one hundred eighty (180) days from the casualty date or such shorter number of days as the Target Agreement may -11- require Tenant to resume business after a casualty (but not fewer that 120 days); provided, with an allowance for an additional twenty (20) days in the event reconstruction or repairs are to occur in the months of January or February; provided further that notwithstanding the Target Agreement, in the event of a casualty, Tenant shall (i) exercise any right it may have in the Target Agreement to extend such resumption period, and (ii) if no such extension right is provided for in the Target Agreement, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an extension of time from Target; (b) destroyed by a casualty that is not covered by the insurance required hereunder or, if covered, such insurance proceeds are not released by any mortgagee entitled thereto or are insufficient to rebuild the Building and the Leased Premises; or (c) destroyed or damaged prior to the Commencement Date such that Landlord will be unable to Substantially Complete the Work per the Project Schedule; then, in case of a clause (a) casualty, either Landlord or Tenant may, or, in the case of a clause (b) casualty, then Landlord may, upon thirty (30) days' written notice to the other party, terminate this Lease with respect to matters thereafter accruing and, in the event of a clause (c) casualty, Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord of such termination within ten (10) days of such casualty.

(a) Tenant shall not assign this Lease or sublet the Leased Premises in whole or in part without Landlord's prior written consent.

In the absence of a permitted assignment or subletting under Section 11.02. any extension, expansion, rights of first offer, rights of first refusal or other options granted to Tenant under this Lease shall be rendered void and of no further force or effect. The acceptance of rent from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of the provisions of this Lease or to be a consent to the assignment of this Lease or the subletting of the Leased Premises. Any assignment or sublease consented to by Landlord shall not relieve Tenant (or its assignee) from obtaining Landlord's consent to any subsequent assignment or sublease. (b) By way of example and not limitation, Landlord shall be deemed to have reasonably withheld consent to a proposed assignment or sublease if in Landlord's opinion (i) the Leased Premises are or may be physically adversely affected; (ii) the business reputation of the proposed assignee or subtenant is unacceptable; (iii) the net worth of the proposed assignee or subtenant is insufficient to meet the obligations hereunder and less than that of the Tenant as of the date of this Lease, or (iv) buildings located in the Park and owned by Landlord or its affiliates are not fully Leased and the prospective assignee or subtenant is a current tenant at the Park or is a bona-fide third-party prospective tenant seeking to lease space at then market rents and Landlord has available space of sufficient size to accommodate the prospect's leasing requirements. Landlord further expressly reserves the right to refuse to give its consent to any subletting if the proposed rental rate is publicly advertised to be less than the then current rental rate for similar premises in the Park. If Landlord refuses to give its consent to any proposed assignment that is not an assignment to a Permitted Transferee or subletting of substantially all of the Leased Premises for substantially the balance of the Lease Term, Landlord may, at its option, within thirty (30) days after receiving a request to consent, terminate this Lease by giving Tenant thirty (30) days' prior written notice of such termination, whereupon unless Tenant rescinds in writing its request for Landlord's consent to such assignment or subletting within ten (10) days of receipt of Landlord's termination notice, each party shall be released from all further obligations and liability hereunder, except those which expressly survive the termination of this Lease. (c) If Tenant shall make any assignment or sublease, with Landlord's consent, for a rental in excess of the rent payable under this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of any such excess rental upon receipt. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord $500.00 upon demand by Landlord for reasonable accounting and attorneys' fees incurred in conjunction with the processing and documentation of any requested assignment, subletting or any other hypothecation of this Lease or Tenant's interest in and to the Leased Premises as consideration for Landlord's consent. -12- Section 11.02. Permitted Transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11.01 above, Tenant shall have the right, without Landlord's consent, but upon ten (10) days' prior notice to Landlord, to (a) sublet all or part of the Leased Premises to any related corporation or other entity which controls Tenant, is controlled by Tenant or is under common control with Tenant; (b) assign all or any part of this Lease to (x) any related corporation or other entity which controls Tenant, is controlled by Tenant, or is under common control with Tenant, (y) to a successor entity into which or with which Tenant is merged or consolidated or which acquires substantially all of Tenant's assets or property, or (z) to Target Corporation; or (c) effectuate any public offering of Tenant's stock on the New York Stock Exchange or in the NASDAQ over the counter market, provided that in the event of a transfer pursuant to clause (b), the tangible net worth after any such transaction is not less than the tangible net worth of Tenant as of the date hereof and provided further that such successor entity assumes all of the obligations and liabilities of Tenant (any such entity hereinafter referred to as a "Permitted Transferee"). For the purpose of this Article 11 (i) "control" shall mean ownership of not less than fifty percent (50%) of all voting stock or legal and equitable interest in such corporation or entity, and (ii) "tangible net worth" shall mean the excess of the value of tangible assets (i.e. assets excluding those which are intangible such as goodwill, patents and trademarks) over liabilities. Any such transfer shall not relieve Tenant of its obligations under this Lease. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to nor shall permit Tenant to transfer its interest under this Lease as part of a fraud or subterfuge to intentionally avoid its obligations under this Lease (for example, transferring its interest to a shell corporation that subsequently files a bankruptcy), and any such transfer shall constitute a Default hereunder. Any change in control of Tenant resulting from a merger, consolidation, or a transfer of partnership or membership interests, a stock transfer, or any sale of substantially all of the assets of Tenant that do not meet the requirements of this Section 11.02 shall be deemed an assignment or transfer that requires Landlord's prior written consent pursuant to Section 11.01 above. ARTICLE 12 - TRANSFERS BY LANDLORD Section 12.01. Sale of the Building. Landlord shall have the right to sell the Building at any time during the Lease Term, subject only to the rights of Tenant hereunder; and such sale shall operate to release Landlord from liability hereunder after the date of such conveyance but not as to matters that accrued prior to the date of transfer. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to nor shall permit Landlord to make a transfer as part of a fraud or subterfuge to intentionally avoid its obligations under this Lease (for example, transferring its interest to a shell corporation that subsequently files a bankruptcy), and any such transfer shall constitute a default hereunder by Landlord. Section 12.02. Estoppel Certificate. Within ten (10) days following receipt of a written request from Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord, without cost to Landlord, an estoppel certificate in substantially such form as Landlord may reasonably request certifying (a) that this Lease is in full force and effect and unmodified or stating the nature of any modification, (b) the date to which rent has been paid, (c) that there are not, to Tenant's actual knowledge (without investigation being required), any uncured defaults or specifying such defaults if any are claimed, and (d) any other matters or state of facts reasonably required respecting the Lease. Such estoppel may be conditioned or qualified as is reasonable, and may be relied upon by Landlord and by any purchaser or mortgagee of the Building. Section 12.03. Subordination. Subject to Tenant's rights of non-disturbance set forth hereinafter, Landlord shall have the right to subordinate this Lease to any mortgage, deed to secure debt, deed of trust or other instrument in the nature thereof, and any amendments or modifications thereto (collectively, a "Mortgage") presently existing or hereafter encumbering the Building by so declaring in such Mortgage. Within ten (10) days following receipt of a written request from Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord, without cost, any instrument that Landlord deems reasonably necessary or desirable to confirm the subordination of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the holder of the Mortgage shall take title to the Leased Premises through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, Tenant shall be allowed to continue in undisturbed possession of the Leased Premises as provided for in this Lease so long as Tenant is not in Default Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a non-disturbance agreement from any future mortgage of the Building. ARTICLE 13 - DEFAULT AND REMEDY Section 13.01. Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall be a "Default": (a) Tenant fails to pay any Monthly Rental Installments or Additional Rent within five (5) days after the same is due. (b) Tenant fails to perform or observe any other term, condition, covenant or obligation required under this Lease for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord; -13- provided, however, that if the nature of Tenant's default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required to cure, then such default shall be deemed to have been cured if Tenant commences such performance within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently completes the required action within a reasonable time. (c) Tenant shall vacate or abandon all of the Leased Premises. (d) Tenant shall assign or sublet all or a portion of the Leased Premises in contravention of the provisions of Article II of this Lease. (e) All or substantially all of Tenant's assets in the Leased Premises or Tenant's interest in this Lease are attached or levied under execution (and Tenant does not discharge the same within sixty (60) days thereafter); a petition in bankruptcy, insolvency or for reorganization or arrangement is filed by or against Tenant (and Tenant fails to secure a stay or discharge thereof within sixty (60) days thereafter); Tenant is insolvent and unable to pay its debts as they become due; Tenant makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; Tenant takes the benefit of any insolvency action or law; the appointment of a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy for Tenant or its assets if such receivership has not been vacated or set aside within thirty (30) days thereafter; or, dissolution or other termination of Tenant's corporate charter if Tenant is a corporation. In addition to the defaults described above, the parties agree that if Tenant receives written notice of a violation of the performance of any (but not necessarily the same) term or condition of this Lease three (3) or more times during any twelve (12) month period, regardless of whether such violations are ultimately cured, then such conduct shall, at Landlord's option, represent a separate Default. Section 13.02. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Default, Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies, in addition to those stated elsewhere in this Lease and those allowed by law or in equity, any one or more of which may be exercised without further notice to Tenant: (a) Landlord may re-enter the Leased Premises and cure any Default of Tenant, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord as Additional Rent for any costs and expenses which Landlord thereby incurs; and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage which Tenant may sustain by reason of Landlord's action. (b) Without terminating this Lease, Landlord may terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Leased Premises, and thereafter, neither Tenant nor any person claiming under or through Tenant shall be entitled to possession of the Leased Premises, and Tenant shall immediately surrender the Leased Premises to Landlord, and Landlord may re-enter the Leased Premises and dispossess Tenant and any other occupants of the Leased Premises by any lawful means and may remove their effects, without prejudice to any other remedy that Landlord may have. Upon termination of possession, Landlord may (i) re-let all or any part thereof for a term different from that which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Lease Term and for rent and on commercially reasonable terms and conditions different from those contained herein, whereupon Tenant shall be immediately obligated to pay to Landlord an amount equal to the present value (discounted at the Prime Rate) of the difference between the rent provided for herein and that provided for in any lease on commercially reasonable terms and conditions covering a subsequent re-letting of the Leased Premises, for the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Lease Term or the period reletting if a smaller period (the "Accelerated Rent Difference"), or (ii) without re-letting, declare the present value (discounted at the Prime Rate) of all rent which would have been due under this Lease for the balance of the Lease Term less the fair market value of the Leased Premises for the balance of the Lease Term to be immediately due and payable as liquidated damages (the "Accelerated Rent"). Upon termination of possession, Tenant shall be obligated to pay to Landlord (A) the Accelerated Rent Difference or the Accelerated Rent, whichever is applicable, (B) all loss or damage that Landlord may sustain by reason of Tenant's Default ("Default Damages"), which shall include, without limitation, expenses of preparing the Leased Premises for re-letting, demolition, repairs, tenant finish improvements, brokers' commissions and attorneys' fees, and (C) all unpaid Minimum Annual Rent and Additional Rent that accrued prior to the date of termination of possession, plus any interest and late fees due hereunder (the "Prior Obligations"). (c) Landlord may terminate this Lease and declare the Accelerated Rent to be immediately due and payable, whereupon Tenant shall be obligated to pay to Landlord (i) the Accelerated Rent, (ii) all of Landlord's Default Damages, and (iii) all Prior Obligations. It is expressly agreed and understood that all of Tenant's liabilities and obligations set forth in this subsection (c) shall survive termination. (d) Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the payment of the Accelerated Rent Difference or the Accelerated Rent as set above shall not be deemed a penalty, but merely shall constitute payment of liquidated damages, it being understood that actual damages to Landlord are extremely -14- difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain. Neither the filing of a dispossessory proceeding nor an eviction of personalty in the Leased Premises shall be deemed to terminate the Lease. (e) Landlord may sue for injunctive relief or to recover damages for any loss resulting from the Default. Section 13.03. Landlord's Default and Tenant's Remedies. Landlord shall be in default if it fails to perform any term, condition, covenant or obligation required under this Lease for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Tenant to Landlord; provided, however, that if the term, condition, covenant or obligation to be performed by Landlord is such that it cannot reasonably be performed within thirty (30) days, such default shall be deemed to have been cured if Landlord commences such performance within said thirty-day period and thereafter diligently undertakes to complete the same. Upon the occurrence of any such default, Tenant may sue for injunctive relief or to recover damages for any loss directly resulting from the breach, but Tenant shall not be entitled to terminate this Lease or to withhold, offset or abate any sums due hereunder. This Section 13.03 shall not be applicable to Landlord's obligation to perform the Work which is subject solely to the provisions of Section 2.02. Section 13.04. Limitation of Landlord's Liability. If Landlord shall fail to perform any term, condition, covenant or obligation required to be performed by it under this Lease and if Tenant shall, as a consequence thereof, recover a money judgment against Landlord, Tenant agrees that it shall look solely to Landlord's right, title and interest in and to the Building for the collection of such judgment, including, insurance proceeds, rents and profits therefrom and net proceeds of sale thereof; and Tenant further agrees that no other assets of Landlord shall be subject to levy, execution or other process for the satisfaction of Tenant's judgment. Section 13.05. Nonwaiver of Defaults. Neither party's failure or delay in exercising any of its rights or remedies or other provisions of this Lease shall constitute a waiver thereof or affect its right thereafter to exercise or enforce such right or remedy or other provision. No waiver of any default shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other default. Landlord's receipt of less than the full rent due shall not be construed to be other than a payment on account of rent then due, nor shall any statement on Tenant's check or any letter accompanying Tenant's check be deemed an accord and satisfaction. No act or omission by Landlord or its employees or agents during the Lease Term shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Leased Premises, and no agreement to accept such a surrender shall be valid unless in writing and signed by Landlord. Section 13.06. Attorneys' Fees. If either party defaults in the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or obligations contained in this Lease and the non-defaulting party obtains a judgment against the defaulting party, then the defaulting party agrees to reimburse the non-defaulting party for reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection therewith.

Section 16.15. Right of First Refusal. (a) Provided that (i) no default has occurred and is then continuing, (ii) the creditworthiness of Tenant is then reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and (iii) Tenant originally named herein or a Permitted Transferee remains in possession of and has been continuously operating in the entire Leased Premises throughout the Lease Terra, Tenant shall have a continuing right of first refusal ("Refusal Option") to lease additional space to be constructed as either an expansion of the Building or in a separate building to be built near the Building by Landlord, on the 16.2 acre parcel of land located contiguous to the Site (the "Contiguous Land") as shown on the attached EXHIBIT A ("Refusal Space"). Prior to entering into any lease for the Refusal Space, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing ("Landlord's Notice") of Landlord's receipt of an arms-length, offer to lease such space that Landlord is willing to accept from a bona fide third party offeror ("Bona Fide Offer") and setting forth all of the material terms of the Bona Fide Offer and such other terms as are herein provided. Tenant shall have seven (7) days after Tenant receives Landlord's Notice in which to notify Landlord in writing of its election to lease the Refusal Space upon the terms set forth in Landlord's Notice. If Tenant declines to exercise this Refusal Option or fails to give such written notice within the time period required. Tenant shall be deemed to have waived this Refusal Option as to the transaction contemplated in the Bona Fide Offer, and thereafter this Refusal Option shall be void and of no further force or effect, and Landlord shall be free to lease the Refusal Space to the bona fide offeror on the terms in the Bona Fide Offer. (b) If Tenant shall exercise the Refusal Option, the parties shall enter into an amendment to this Lease adding the Refusal Space to the Leased Premises upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Bona Fide Offer and making such other modifications to this Lease as are appropriate under the circumstances. (c) If Tenant does not exercise its Refusal Option, in the event Landlord expands the Building or constructs a new building on the Contiguous Land, Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord, at no cost to Tenant, in the construction of such expansion or new Building, including, without limitation, assuring access of construction personnel and equipment to the Contiguous Land consistent with Tenant's obligations to furnish security measures at the Leased Premises under the Target Agreement, providing for changes in utilities, including shared utilities to the expansion space and/or new building, and providing for reasonable changes or additions to the parking facilities that do not reduce the amount of parking allocated to Tenant as shown on EXHIBIT A and do not relocate such parking areas more than 50 feet from their locations as shown in EXHIBIT A. In the event any portion of the Building, including any expansion thereto, or any new building on the Contiguous Land is leased to one or more tenants other than Tenant, Landlord shall at its sole cost alter any outside security facilities, such as fencing and/or guard shacks, to permit access by other tenants, their agents, employees, contractors, customers and invitees to the portion of the Building or the new building leased by such tenant(s) and the parking and other Common Areas associated therewith. Section 16.16. Options to Extend. (a) Grant and Exercise of Option. Provided that (i) no default has occurred and is then continuing (ii) the creditworthiness of Tenant is not less than that of the date hereof and (iii) Tenant originally named herein or a Permitted Transferee remains in possession of and has been continuously operating in the entire Leased Premises throughout the term immediately preceding the Extension Term (as defined below), Tenant shall have the option to extend the Lease Term for two (2) additional periods of three (3) years each (the "Extension Term(s)"). Each Extension Term shall be upon the same terms and conditions contained in the Lease except (x) this provision giving two (2) extension options shall be amended to reflect the remaining options to extend, if any, and (y) any improvement allowances or other concessions applicable to the Leased Premises under the Lease shall not apply to the Extension Term, and (z) the Minimum Annual Rent shall be adjusted as set forth below (the "Rent Adjustment"). Tenant shall exercise each option by (i) delivering to Landlord, no later than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the preceding term, written notice of Tenant's desire to extend the Lease Term. Tenant's failure to timely exercise such option shall be deemed a waiver of such option and any succeeding option. Landlord shall notify Tenant of the amount of the Rent Adjustment no later than ninety (90) days prior to the commencement of the Extension Term. Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Rent Adjustment if it fails to deliver to Landlord a written objection thereto within five (5) business days after receipt thereof. If Tenant properly exercises its option to extend, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to the Lease (or, at Landlord's option, a new lease on the form then in use for the Building) reflecting the terms and conditions of the Extension Term within thirty (30) days after Tenant's acceptance (or deemed acceptance) of the Rent Adjustment. -18- (b) Rent Adjustment. The Minimum Annual Rent for the applicable Extension Term shall be an amount equal to the Minimum Annual Rent then being quoted by Landlord to prospective renewal tenants of the Building for space of comparable size and quality and with similar or equivalent improvements as are found in the Building, and if none, then in similar buildings in the Park, provided, however, that if Tenant delivers to Landlord a written objection to Landlord's calculation of the Rent Adjustment within five (5) business days after Tenant's receipt of Landlord's determination of the Rent Adjustment, and the parties cannot agree on a Rent Adjustment within ten (10) days after Tenant's written objection then Tenant may retract its exercise of its option to extend, or Tenant may choose arbitration to determine the Rent Adjustment. If Tenant chooses arbitration, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of its desire to seek arbitration within three (3) days after expiration of such ten (10) day period ("Arbitration Notice"). Within ten (10) days after Tenant provides Landlord with its Arbitration Notice, the parties shall each appoint an appraiser to determine the Rent Adjustment for the Leased Premises. Each appraiser so selected shall be either an MAI appraiser or a licensed real estate broker, each having at least ten (10) years prior experience in the appraisal or leasing of comparable space in the metropolitan area in which the Leased Premises are located and with a working knowledge of current rental rates and practices. If the two appraisers cannot agree upon the Rent Adjustment for the Leased Premises within twenty (20) days after their appointment, then, within ten (10) days after the expiration of such twenty (20) day period, the two appraisers shall select a third appraiser meeting the above criteria. Once the third appraiser has been selected as provided for above, then such third appraiser shall within ten (10) days after appointment make its determination of the Rent Adjustment. The average of the three (3) determinations of the Rent Adjustment shall be used as the Minimum Annual Rent for the applicable Extension Term and shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall each bear the cost of its appraiser and shall share the cost of the third. If Tenant fails to provide the Arbitration Notice as provided above, then Tenant's exercise of its option to extend shall be deemed retracted. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Lease as of the day and year first above written.
