The Company will not file its proxy statement for its annual meeting of stockholders within 120 days of its fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 and is therefore amending and restating in their entirety Items 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 of Part III of the Annual Report. In addition, pursuant to Rule 13a-14(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we are including with this Amendment No. 1 certain currently dated certifications and have corrected a clerical error on the cover page regarding the Company's status as a non-accelerated filer. Except as described above, no other amendments are being made to the Annual Report. This Form 10-K/A does not reflect events occurring after the March 31, 2005 filing of our Annual Report or modify or update the disclosure contained in the Annual Report in any way other than as required to reflect the amendments discussed above and reflected below TABLE OF CONTENTS Item Page ---- ---- PART III 10.

EXHIBIT INDEX............................................................ 2 PART III Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers. Board of Directors We currently have seven directors. As set forth in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the terms of office of the members of the Board of Directors are divided into three classes: Class A, whose term will expire at the 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; Class B, whose term will expire at the 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; and Class C, whose term will expire at the 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The current Class A directors are Mark Kristoff and Joseph Korb, the current Class B directors are Daniel Luis and David Lyons, and the current Class C directors are Aaron Dobrinsky, Alan Docter and King Lee. At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following election. Our by-laws permit the Board of Directors to increase or decrease the size of the Board of Directors. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the total number of directors. This classification of the Board of Directors may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control or management of GoAmerica. The following table provides additional information regarding the members of our Board of Directors:

(1) Based on a total of 22,904 shares subject to options granted to our employees under our plans during 2004. (2) The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") requires disclosure of the potential realizable value or present value of each grant. The 5% and 10% assumed annual rates of compounded stock price appreciation are mandated by rules of the SEC and do not represent our estimate or projection of our future Common Stock prices. The disclosure assumes the options will be held for the full ten-year term prior to exercise. Such options may be exercised prior to the end of such term. The actual value, if any, an executive officer may realize will depend on the excess of the stock price over the exercise price on the date the option is exercised. There can be no assurance that the stock price will appreciate at the rates shown in the table.

In the event any of Messrs. Luis, Odom, Barnhart or Smith is terminated without cause, resigns for good reason or, in the case of Mr. Luis, is not reelected to the Company's Board of Directors, he shall be entitled to receive enhanced severance, subject to the Board of Directors' approval of a new plan based on the independent compensation consultant's recommendations.
