PART I

Item 1. Business

Overview

PTEK Holdings, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“PTEK” or the “Company”), is a global provider of outsourced communications services to large- and medium-sized enterprise customers. We have two business units, Premiere Conferencing and Xpedite. Premiere Conferencing offers a variety of audio conferencing and Web-based collaboration services, and Xpedite offers enhanced electronic messaging services through various modalities, including fax, e-mail, wireless and voice. The Company has a worldwide presence and an established customer base of over 26,000 corporate accounts spanning virtually every major industry, including almost 70% of the Fortune 500.

A large number of businesses rely on audio and Web conferencing or e-mail, fax, wireless and voice messaging to manage a wide variety of important business communications. The rapid proliferation of these technologies and the growing complexity of service requirements have motivated companies to outsource these managed group communications requirements. In addition, the current geopolitical climate and corporate cost-cutting trends have encouraged companies to replace business travel with more convenient, reliable and economical communications such as conferencing and messaging.

For the year ended December 31, 2002, segment revenues for Premiere Conferencing and Xpedite were 40.6% and 59.5%, respectively, before eliminations of consolidated revenues. Geographic revenues for North America, Asia Pacific and Europe were 67.0%, 16.4% and 16.6%, respectively, of consolidated revenues for 2002.

To better serve PTEK’s global corporate customer base, over the last few years the Company has funded new technology development in each of its business units to help position them in larger market categories. Premiere Conferencing has expanded into automated and Web conferencing services and Xpedite has developed a suite of e-mail, wireless and voice-based messaging services.

On March 26, 2002, the Company sold substantially all the assets of its Voicecom business unit in exchange for cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. As a result, the Company has exited in all material respects the IVR, network based voice messaging and unified personal communications businesses. The transaction was accounted for as discontinued operations in the first quarter of 2002. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Discontinued Operations”, and Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

PTEK was incorporated in Florida in 1991 and reincorporated in Georgia in 1995. The corporate headquarters for PTEK are located at 3399 Peachtree Road, NE, The Lenox Building, Suite 700, Atlanta, GA 30326, and the telephone number is (404) 262- 8400.

Industry Background

Nearly everywhere in the world, the bulk of business communication is done through telephone and Web-based conferencing, e-mail, fax and voice mail messaging. This explosion of communications in various forms has forced more and more companies to outsource their managed group communications needs.

The conferencing and Web-based collaboration market is projected to reach $4.3 billion by 2006 (Source: Wainhouse Research). The multimedia messaging segment, which traditionally combines outsourced e-mail, voice and fax, is projected to reach $2.7 billion by 2006 (Source: Davidson Consulting). PTEK provides market leading solutions in both of these categories.

Today, PTEK’s services, combined with its global infrastructure, are the primary conduits for literally billions of business communications each year.

Service Offerings

PTEK’s business communications services solutions are provided through its two business units -- Premiere Conferencing and Xpedite.

Premiere Conferencing offers a full suite of audio conferencing and Web-based collaborated services for all forms of group communications activities. Customers use Premiere Conferencing for a wide range of communications from very large events such as investor relations calls, press conferences and training seminars with hundreds or thousands of participants, to smaller four-to-six person daily/weekly meetings. Premiere Conferencing provides group communications services for leading companies in virtually every major industry. Premiere Conferencing hosted approximately three million calls comprising nearly one billion minutes in 2002.

Through its own proprietary software technology, Premiere Conferencing offers ReadyConference^®, its automated service that does not require hands-on involvement from an operator. These automated services, which are easily coupled with Premiere Conferencing’s Web conferencing products, allow users to begin and conduct their conference calls without the assistance of an operator, or the need of a reservation, via a dedicated dial-in number and passcode available for use anytime. ReadyConference can be used for a variety of group communications, including any meeting requiring instant access by a number of participants.

Premiere Conferencing has a complete product line of operator-assisted conferences that can be easily integrated with Premiere Conferencing’s Web products. Premiere Conferencing’s PremiereCall services include assistance from an operator or operators to introduce the speakers and topics, give participants instructions, and monitor all facets of a conference. In addition, complete event management services, which include a dedicated team and professional announcer to work with any customization requests, are available. Typical PremiereCall applications include sales meetings, investor relations calls, press conferences, customer seminars, product rollouts, and continuing medical education, continuing legal education, and branded customer seminars. Premiere Conferencing’s semiautomated operator-assisted service, PremiereCall Auditorium^SM, experienced strong growth in 2002, as more customers leveraged their ability to start a larger-scale conference immediately, while still utilizing the resource of a dedicated operator during the entire call. Premiere Conferencing’s client services team understands the importance of professional, secure communications and works closely with its customers to ensure a successful conference.

Premiere Conferencing also offers Web conferencing services, VisionCast^® and ReadyCast^®, that efficiently combine the visual power of the Internet with its audio conferencing capabilities to provide real-time, multimedia presentation solutions. VisionCast gives customers the interactivity and collaborative nature of an in-person meeting while maintaining the cost and time savings of a traditional conference call. Customers use VisionCast to conduct distance learning, training, seminars, company meetings, focus groups and media conferences. VisionCast also includes features such as chat, Web tours, polling, whiteboarding functions, record and playback capabilities, roll call and live demo options. ReadyCast combines similar data collaboration capabilities with the cost efficiency and convenience of Premiere Conferencing’s ReadyConference automated conferencing service. As part of its Web-based services, Premiere Conferencing also offers SoundCast^®, an audio streaming technology that provides live Internet streaming to simulcast a live conference call or recorded presentation over the Web.

Premiere Conferencing services are available globally through its network of operations centers and international toll free numbers. Premiere Conferencing has bridging and sales infrastructure in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, France, Germany, Ireland and the United Kingdom.

Xpedite offers a comprehensive suite of business services that enable actionable two-way communications which allow companies to better acquire and retain customers as well as automate their core business processes. Xpedite provides tailored solutions to customers to help them manage the electronic delivery of critical time-sensitive information, such as inventory availability reports, updated mortgage rates and equity research reports/updates. In addition, the Xpedite solution set enables two-way communications for order and reservation confirmations, bank account statements and invoice and collection notices. By automating key business processes, Xpedite can also help global enterprise customers better manage their electronic order fulfillment and account payment settlement. Xpedite provides services to almost half of the global Fortune 500 companies across nearly every business sector, including financial services, professional associations, travel, hospitality, publishing, technology and manufacturing. Xpedite processed more than two billion messages in 2002 through its proprietary communications platform.

In 2002, Xpedite added several significant service enhancements to messageREACH^®, its e-mail service that provides control, tracking, security, personalization and automated administration for high volume e-mail and e-commerce applications. These enhancements include improved HTML message support, transactional message support for applications such as trade and account balance confirmations, billing and invoicing, as well as campaign management capabilities for large scale e-marketing applications. Among the advanced features built into the service are support for the distribution and collection of forms, multiple layers of encryption and levels of password protection, anti-spam, “opt-out” protection, automated personalization of messages with text and graphical inserts, opt-in list building, viral marketing and the hosting of customer databases for campaign management.

messageREACH customers can access a proprietary software tool, intelliSEND^SM Wizard, to help with the creation of graphically rich HTML documents for e-mail, and for the insertion of trackable hyperlinks to documents or Web sites. The proprietary messageREACH delivery engine and infrastructure operate solely for the support of messageREACH customers and were custom designed by Xpedite’s technical team, incorporating leading Internet technology. Xpedite also provides Short Message Services (SMS) for wireless users which allows text messages to be delivered to GSM phones using existing Xpedite access methods.

Xpedite also provides voiceREACH^SM, an automated service that simultaneously delivers large volumes of prerecorded voice messages to any size list of phone numbers, voice mailboxes or other answering devices. Typical users of voiceREACH services include associations, political organizations, securities firms, trade show operators and collections companies.

Xpedite services support multiple protocols and can be accessed through a variety of methods including ftp, TCP/IP, PC-Xpedite software, or Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). Xpedite services are available throughout the world with local sales and customer support available in 17 countries throughout Europe, Asia, Australia and North America.

Customer Base

PTEK customers represent nearly every major industry, serving almost 70% of the Fortune 500. Millions of business people worldwide depend on PTEK services everyday.

Premiere Conferencing has approximately 6,500 domestic and international corporate accounts, supporting approximately 71,000 active conferencing hosts. The business unit has successfully penetrated key accounts in various industries including technology, healthcare, investor relations, financial services, public relations and market research.

Premiere Conferencing has historically relied on sales through a particular customer, IBM, for a significant portion of its revenues. Sales to that customer accounted for approximately 12% of consolidated revenues from continuing operations (29% of Premiere Conferencing’s revenues) in 2002, 10% of consolidated revenues from

3

continuing operations (29% of Premiere Conferencing’s revenues) in 2001, and 5% of consolidated revenues from continuing operations (22% of Premiere Conferencing’s revenues) in 2000. The initial term of the IBM agreement ends December 31, 2004. Thereafter, it will automatically renew for additional one-month periods unless IBM provides 30 days’ notice of non-renewal prior to the expiration of the initial term. During the initial term, neither party can terminate the agreement without cause. IBM may terminate the agreement without cause upon 30 days’ notice during any renewal term. The agreement does not contain any revenue commitments, termination charges or use requirements. Premiere Conferencing’s relationship with IBM may not continue at historical levels, and there is no long-term price protection for services provided to IBM.

Xpedite has more than 19,500 corporate accounts, representing over 175,000 users. This business unit has successfully targeted industries such as securities, banking, mortgage, publishing, healthcare, associations, investor relations, public relations, travel and hospitality.

While the Company’s business is generally not seasonal, it has experienced and can expect to continue to experience lower levels of sales and usage during periods which have reduced numbers of working days. For example, the Company’s operating results have decreased around the summer months (particularly in our international operations), as well as during Thanksgiving, December and New Year holidays. The Company expects that its revenues during these periods will not grow at the same rates as compared with other periods of the year because of decreased use of its services by business customers.

The Company typically does not enter into long-term contracts with its customers, with most customer agreements having terms of one to three years. Customers may generally terminate without penalty, unless their agreement contains an annual minimum revenue commitment that would require payment by the customer of any unused minimum amount upon termination.

Sales and Marketing

Each of PTEK’s business units markets its services through direct sales employing a regional reporting structure and a centrally managed national and global accounts program. The Company’s sales force targets large and mid-size enterprises. The centrally managed national and global accounts program focuses on multi-location businesses that are better served by dedicated representatives with responsibility across different geographic regions. The direct sales force is organized by services and by industry on a global scale. The company employs nearly 550 sales professionals around the world.

As a service organization, PTEK’s customer service teams play a major role in managing customer relationships, as well as selling additional value-added services to existing accounts. PTEK employs more than 750 customer service professionals deployed in local markets.

Suppliers

The Company purchases telecommunications services and equipment for use in its operations from a variety of suppliers. Some of the Company’s telecommunications supply agreements contain commitments that require that the Company purchase a minimum amount of services through 2006. These costs are approximately $13.7 million, $9.5 million, $1.4 million and $0.5 million in 2003 through 2006, respectively. The Company purchases telecommunications and other network services from MCI WorldCom, Inc. (“MCI”) under service agreements which do not contain minimum commitments. The Company’s ability to maintain network connections is dependent upon access to transmission facilities provided by MCI or an alternative provider. See also “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Commitments and Contingencies”, and Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Platforms and Network Infrastructure

The Company, through its two business units, operates global Internet and telecom-based networks that allow customers to access the Company’s various services through the Internet and through local and/or 800 telephone numbers.

Premiere Conferencing services are provided from full-service operations centers in Colorado Springs, Colorado; Lenexa, Kansas; Sydney, Australia; and Clonakilty, Ireland. Automated bridging nodes are maintained in

4

the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, France, Germany Ireland, and the United Kingdom. Complex, operator-assisted calls are supported on various commercially available bridging platforms. Internally developed conference bridges are used to support automated conferencing services. Customers access these conferencing platform through direct inward dialing, 800 numbers, the Internet and virtual network access.

Xpedite services are provided through its enhanced messaging network with more than 35,000 messaging ports that uses servers to perform all primary processing and switching functions. Xpedite’s proprietary platform supports multiple input methods including, but not limited to, priority PC-based software, e-mail gateways and high speed IP based interconnects. Outgoing communications are delivered through line group controllers, which are deployed in a decentralized fashion to exploit local delivery costs. The remote line group controllers are connected to servers over a wide area network via either private lines or Xpedite’s global TCP/IP based network. Mission critical information is transported from one location domain to another using MCP to MCP protocol. The current domains include Australia, Japan, Korea, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany and France. Remote nodes on the network are located in Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Italy, Malaysia, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore.

Research and Development

PTEK’s ability to design, develop, test and support new software technology for product enhancements in a timely manner is an important ingredient to its future success. New or next generation versions of the Company’s services recently released include Auditorium, SecureTouch^SM, messageREACH and voiceREACH. Services currently in development include VisionCast and SecureMail. These services are critical additions to the suite of communications and data services PTEK provides to its customers, not only to position the operating units in larger market segments, but more importantly to meet changing customer needs and respond to the overall technological changes in the marketplace.

The Company devotes significant resources to the development of enhancements for existing services and to introduce new services. Each PTEK operating unit includes research, development and engineering personnel who are responsible for designing, developing, testing and supporting proprietary software applications, as well as creating and improving enhanced system features and services. The Company’s research and development strategy is to focus its efforts on enhancing its proprietary software and integrating it with readily available industry standard software and hardware when feasible. Research, development and engineering personnel also engage in joint development efforts with the Company’s strategic partners and vendors. PTEK employs 69 research and development professionals. The Company’s research and development costs for 2002, 2001 and 2000 were $7.2 million, $11.1 million and $8.6 million, respectively.

Competition

PTEK competes with major telecommunications service providers around the world such as AT&T Corp., MCI, Global Crossing Limited, Sprint Corporation and the international PTTs. Because these telecommunications providers own the underlying telecommunications network, they may have lower per minute long distance costs than the Company. Although these providers hold a large market share, conferencing and messaging are not primary focuses of their business. The Company believes that it has been able to compete with these providers on the basis of quality of customer service.

The Company also competes with smaller companies in each of its service categories. For example, Premiere Conferencing competes with West Corporation’s conferencing services segment, Raindance Communications, Inc., ACT Teleconferencing, Inc., WebEx Communications, Inc. and Genesys Telecommunications Laboratories, Inc. The Company believes that Premiere Conferencing is the third largest independent audio conferencing provider. While the multimedia messaging industry is highly fragmented, the Company believes that Xpedite is the largest worldwide provider of these services. As Xpedite evolves into more of a business services company, its solution set will be positioned to displace existing services provided by companies such as West, TeleTech Holdings, Inc. and others in the customer relationship management (“CRM”) category, and it will continue to compete with EasyLink Services Corporation, Captaris, Inc., Critical Path, Inc., DoubleClick Inc. and j2 Global Communications, Inc. in the multimedia messaging category. The Company’s newer service offerings, particularly those services that will compete in the CRM market, may not achieve the market acceptance of existing providers’ services.

5

In all cases, PTEK’s strategy is to gain a competitive advantage in winning and keeping customers by enabling its business units to deliver leading technology-driven solutions to its customers and support them with superior customer service. The Company believes that its comprehensive package of conferencing and messaging services provide it an advantage over many of its competitors that have more limited service offerings. In addition, the Company believes that its global reach allows it to pursue contract opportunities with multinational enterprises providing an advantage over competitors that only focus on limited geographies.

Government Regulation

One of the Company’s subsidiaries, Premiere Communications, Inc. (“PCI”), provides long distance telecommunications services and is subject to federal, state and local telecommunications regulations in the United States. In addition, other PTEK subsidiaries may be affected by regulatory decisions, trends or policies issued or implemented by federal, state or local regulatory authorities. Various international authorities may also seek to regulate, or impose requirements with respect to, the services provided by PCI or such other PTEK subsidiaries.

The Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) classifies PCI as a non-dominant common carrier for its domestic interstate and international telecommunications services. Generally, such common carriers must maintain and publicly disclose price lists, describing rates, terms and conditions of service, must comply with federal regulatory programs such as universal service, and must comply with decisions and policies adopted or enforced by the FCC. Most state public service or utility commissions (“PUCs”) also subject carriers such as PCI that provide intrastate, common carrier telecommunications services to various compliance and approval requirements, such as those in connection with entry certification, tariff filings, transfers of control, mergers or other acquisitions, issuance of debt instruments, periodic reporting and payment of regulatory fees, as well as others. FCC or state PUC authorizations can generally be conditioned, modified or revoked for failure to comply with applicable laws, rules, regulations or regulatory policies. Fines or other penalties also may be imposed for such violations. Management believes that the Company and its subsidiaries exercise reasonable efforts to comply with applicable FCC and state PUC decisions, policies and regulatory programs. However, there can be no assurance that the Company and its subsidiaries are currently in compliance with all applicable FCC or state PUC requirements, or that the FCC, state PUCs or third parties will not raise issues in the future with regard to the Company or its subsidiaries’ compliance with applicable laws or regulations.

Federal and state laws regulate telemarketing practices, and may adversely impact the Company’s business and that of its customers and potential customers. The FCC promulgated rules in 1992 to implement the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (the “TCPA”). These rules, among others, regulate telemarketing methods and activities, including the use of prerecorded messages, the time of day when telemarketing calls may be made, maintenance of company-specific “do not call” databases, and restrictions on unsolicited facsimile advertising. The FCC is currently in the process of considering amendments to its rules under the TCPA. The FCC has also sought comment on the issue of a national “do not call” list and whether it should adopt such a list in conjunction with the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”).

Under the Federal Telemarketing Consumer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1994, the FTC has issued regulations designed to prevent deceptive and abusive telemarketing acts and practices. The FTC recently significantly amended its regulations, and these changes could impose additional costs on the Company and affect the industry adversely. As part of these rule amendments, the FTC has ordered that a national “do not call” registry be established, whereby telemarketers will be barred from calling consumers who register their telephone numbers in the national database. The “do not call” registry is expected to become effective approximately seven months after the FTC receives funding from Congress and awards the contract to create the registry. The Company will have to take the necessary steps to ensure compliance with the “do not call” registry and other FTC rule amendments.

In addition to the federal legislation and regulations, there are numerous state statutes and regulations governing telemarketing activities, including state “do not call” list requirements, and state registration and bonding requirements. The Company has compliance policies in place with regarding to telemarketing laws and regulations; however, there can be no assurance that the Company would not be subject to litigation alleging a violation of state or federal telemarketing laws or regulations.

A number of states have adopted laws restricting and/or governing the distribution of unsolicited e-mails, or spam. Other states are considering similar legislation. Congress has also considered such legislation, and could enact legislation governing spam at some future point. The Company monitors such legislation and regulatory developments to minimize the risk of its participation in activities that violate anti-spam legislation. In addition, a

6

number of legislative and regulatory proposals are under consideration by federal and state lawmakers and regulatory bodies and may be adopted with respect to the Internet. Some of the issues that such laws or regulations may cover include user privacy, obscenity, fraud, pricing and characteristics and quality of products and services. The adoption of any such laws or regulations may decrease the growth of the Internet, which could in turn decrease the projected demand for the Company’s products and services or increase its cost of doing business. In addition, the sending of spam through the Company’s network could result in third parties asserting claims against the Company. Moreover, the applicability to the Internet of existing U.S. and international laws governing issues such as property ownership, copyright, trade secret, libel, taxation and personal privacy is uncertain and developing. Any new legislation or regulation, or application or interpretation of existing laws, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, the Company’s operations may be subject to state laws and regulations regulating the unsolicited transmission of facsimiles. The Company monitors such laws and regulations and its service agreements with customers state that customers are responsible for their compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. The Company could, nevertheless, be subject to litigation, fines, losses, and possible other relief under such laws and regulations.

In conducting its business, the Company is subject to various laws and regulations relating to commercial transactions generally, such as the Uniform Commercial Code and is also subject to the electronic funds transfer rules embodied in Regulation E promulgated by the Federal Reserve. It is possible that Congress, the states or various government agencies could impose new or additional requirements on the electronic commerce market or entities operating therein. If enacted, such laws, rules and regulations could be imposed on the Company’s business and industry and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. The Company’s international activities also are subject to regulation by various international authorities and the inherent risk of unexpected changes in such regulation.

Proprietary Rights and Technology

The Company’s ability to compete is dependent in part upon its proprietary technology. The Company currently has three issued U.S. patents relating to its fax distribution services, each of which will expire in 2013, and multiple pending U.S. patents covering aspects of its teleconferencing services. In addition, the Company owns and uses a number of registered trademarks in connection with its products and services, such as PTEK, ReadyCast, ReadyConference, SoundCast, VisionCast, messageREACH and Xpedite. Applications for Auditorium, ReadyClick & Conference, intelliSEND and voiceREACH are pending in the U.S. Many of these trademarks are either registered in or have applications pending in other countries. The Company relies primarily on a combination of intellectual property laws and contractual provisions to protect its proprietary rights and technology. These laws and contractual provisions provide only limited protection of the Company’s proprietary rights and technology. The Company’s proprietary rights and technology include confidential information and trade secrets that the Company attempts to protect through confidentiality and nondisclosure provisions in its agreements. The Company typically attempts to protect its confidential information and trade secrets through these contractual provisions for the terms of the applicable agreement and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, for some negotiated period of time following termination of the agreement. PTEK currently has seven patents, five patent applications pending, numerous worldwide registrations of trademarks and service marks, and numerous worldwide trademark and service mark registrations pending. Despite the Company’s efforts to protect its proprietary rights and technology, there can be no assurance that others will not be able to copy or otherwise obtain and use the Company’s proprietary technology without authorization, or independently develop technologies that are similar or superior to the Company’s technology. However, the Company believes that, due to the rapid pace of technological change in communications and data services, factors such as the technological and creative skills of its personnel, new product developments, frequent product enhancements and the timeliness and quality of support services are of equal or greater importance to establishing and maintaining a competitive advantage in the industry.

Employees

As of December 31, 2002, PTEK employed 1,927 people. PTEK employees are not represented by a labor union or covered by any collective bargaining agreements.

Item 2. Properties

PTEK’s corporate headquarters occupy approximately 19,600 square feet of office space in Atlanta, Georgia under a lease expiring August 31, 2007. Xpedite occupies approximately 90,000 square feet of office space in Tinton Falls, New Jersey under a 15-year lease expiring in May 2016.

The Company also leases various data and switching centers and sales offices within and outside the United States. The Company believes that its current facilities and office space are sufficient to meet its present needs and does not anticipate any difficulty securing additional space, as needed, on terms acceptable to the Company.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

The Company has several litigation matters pending, as described below, which it is defending vigorously. Due to the inherent uncertainties of the litigation process and the judicial system, the Company is unable to predict the outcome of such litigation matters. If the outcome of one or more of such matters is adverse to the Company, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

A lawsuit was filed on November 4, 1998 against the Company and certain of its officers and directors in the Southern District of New York. Plaintiffs are shareholders of Xpedite Systems, Inc. (“Xpedite”) who acquired common stock of the Company as a result of the merger between the Company and Xpedite in February 1998. Plaintiffs’ allegations are based on the representations and warranties made by the Company in the prospectus and the registration statement related to the merger, the merger agreement and other documents incorporated by reference, regarding the Company’s acquisitions of Voice-Tel and VoiceCom Systems, the Company’s roll-out of Orchestrate, the Company’s relationship with customers Amway Corporation and DigiTEC, 2000, and the Company’s 800-based calling card service. Plaintiffs allege causes of action against the Company for breach of contract, against all defendants for negligent misrepresentation, violations of Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and against the individual defendants for violation of Section 15 of the Securities Act. Plaintiffs seek undisclosed damages together with pre- and post-judgment interest, recission or recissory damages as to violation of Section 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act, punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees. The defendants’ motion to transfer venue to Georgia has been granted. The defendants’ motion to dismiss has been granted in part and denied in part. The defendants filed an answer on March 30, 2000. On January 22, 2002, the court ordered the parties to mediate. The parties did so on February 8, 2002. On October 17, 2002, the Defendants filed a Motion for Summary Judgment and a Motion in Limine to exclude the testimony of the Plaintiffs’ expert. Both motions are pending.

On February 23, 1998, Rudolf R. Nobis and Constance Nobis filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Union County, New Jersey against 15 named defendants including Xpedite and certain of its alleged current and former officers, directors, agents and representatives. The plaintiffs allege that the 15 named defendants and certain unidentified “John Doe defendants” engaged in wrongful activities in connection with the management of the plaintiffs’ investments with Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States and/or Equico Securities, Inc. (collectively “Equitable”). The complaint asserts wrongdoing in connection with the plaintiffs’ investment in securities of Xpedite and in unrelated investments involving insurance-related products. The defendants include Equitable and certain of its current or former representatives. The allegations in the complaint against Xpedite are limited to plaintiffs’ investment in Xpedite. The plaintiffs have alleged that two of the named defendants, allegedly acting as officers, directors, agents or representatives of Xpedite, induced the plaintiffs to make certain investments in Xpedite but that the plaintiffs failed to receive the benefits that they were promised. Plaintiffs allege that Xpedite knew or should have known of alleged wrongdoing on the part of other defendants. Plaintiffs seek an accounting of

the corporate stock in Xpedite, compensatory damages of approximately $4.9 million, plus $200,000 in “lost investments,” interest and/or dividends that have accrued and have not been paid, punitive damages in an unspecified amount, and for certain equitable relief, including a request for Xpedite to issue 139,430 shares of common stock in the plaintiffs’ names, attorneys’ fees and costs and such other and further relief as the court deems just and equitable. This case has been dismissed without prejudice and compelled to NASD arbitration, which has commenced. In August 2000, the plaintiffs filed a statement of claim with the NASD against 12 named respondents, including Xpedite (the “Nobis Respondents”). The claimants allege that the 12 named respondents engaged in wrongful activities in connection with the management of the claimants’ investments with Equitable. The statement of claim asserts wrongdoing in connection with the claimants’ investment in securities of Xpedite and in unrelated investments involving insurance-related products. The allegations in the statement of claim against Xpedite are limited to claimants’ investment in Xpedite. Claimants seek, among other things, an accounting of the corporate stock in Xpedite, compensatory damages of not less than $415,000, a fair conversion rate on stock options, losses on the investments, plus interest and all dividends, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. Hearings before the NASD panel were held on November 27-29, 2001, January 22-24, 2002, February 4-7, 2002, April 9-19, 2002, and May 30, 2002. On July 31, 2002, the NASD Panel issued its Award. The Award was subsequently amended on September 9, 2002. The Panel, among other things, held Xpedite, along with co-Respondents Angrisani, Erb, and CEA Financial, jointly and severally liable to Claimant Constance Nobis for $50,000, plus 9% simple interest from January 1, 1999 until September 9, 2002. The Panel also held Angrisani, Erb, and CEA Financial jointly and severally liable to Xpedite for $50,000, plus 9% simple interest from January 1, 1999 until September 9, 2002. Xpedite has filed a Notice of Petition, Verified Petition to Vacate Arbitration Award, and Request for Judicial Intervention in New York State. That proceeding is pending. At a hearing on January 10, 2003, the New Jersey Superior Court affirmed the NASD Award. No order or judgment, however, has been issued by the New Jersey Superior Court.

On September 3, 1999, Elizabeth Tendler filed a complaint in the Superior Court of New Jersey Law Division, Union County, against 17 named defendants including PTEK and Xpedite, and various alleged current and former officers, directors, agents and representatives of Xpedite. The plaintiff alleges that the defendants engaged in wrongful activities in connection with the management of the plaintiff’s investments, including investments in Xpedite. The allegations against Xpedite and PTEK are limited to plaintiff’s investment in Xpedite. Plaintiff’s claims against Xpedite and PTEK include breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, conversion, fraud, interference with economic advantage, liability for ultra vires acts, violation of the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act and violation of New Jersey RICO. Plaintiff seeks an accounting of the corporate stock of Xpedite, compensatory damages of approximately $1.3 million, accrued interest and/or dividends, a constructive trust on the proceeds of the sale of any Xpedite or PTEK stock, shares of Xpedite and/or PTEK to satisfy defendants’ obligations to plaintiff, attorneys’ fees and costs, punitive and exemplary damages in an unspecified amount, and treble damages. On February 25, 2000, Xpedite filed its answer, as well as cross claims and third party claims. This case has been dismissed without prejudice and compelled to NASD arbitration, which has commenced. In August 2000, a statement of claim was also filed with the NASD against all but one of the Nobis Respondents making virtually the same allegations on behalf of claimant Elizabeth Tendler. Claimant seeks an accounting of the corporate stock in Xpedite, compensatory damages of not less than $265,000, a fair conversion rate on stock options, losses on other investments, interest and/or unpaid dividends, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. Hearings before the NASD panel were held on November 27-29, 2001, January 22-24, 2002, February 4-7, 2002, April 9-19, 2002, and May 30, 2002. On July 31, 2002, the NASD Panel issued its Award. The Award was subsequently amended on September 9, 2002. The Panel, among other things, held Xpedite, along with co-respondents Angrisani, Erb, and CEA Financial, jointly and severally liable to claimant Elizabeth Tendler for $57,500, plus 9% simple interest from March 1, 1999 until September 9, 2002. The Panel also held Angrisani, Erb, and CEA Financial jointly and severally liable to Xpedite for $57,500, plus 9% simple interest form March 1, 1999 until September 9, 2002. Xpedite has filed a Notice of Petition, Verified Petition to Vacate Arbitration Award, and Request for Judicial Intervention in New York State. That proceeding is pending. At a hearing on January 10, 2003, the New Jersey Superior Court affirmed the NASD Award. No order or judgment, however, has been issued by the New Jersey Superior Court.

On December 10, 2001, Voice-Tel filed a Complaint against Voice-Tel franchisees JOBA, Inc. (“JOBA”) and Digital Communication Services, Inc. (“Digital”) in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. The Complaint sought injunctive relief and a declaratory judgment with respect to Voice-Tel’s right to terminate the franchise agreements with JOBA and Digital. On January 7, 2002, JOBA and Digital answered Voice-Tel’s Complaint and asserted counterclaims against Voice-Tel for alleged breach of franchise agreements and other alleged franchise-related agreements. JOBA and Digital also asserted claims alleging tortious interference of contract against Premiere Communications, Inc. (“PCI”) and PTEK. On January 18, 2002, Voice-Tel, PCI and

9

PTEK filed responses and answers to the counterclaims and filed additional breach of contract and tort claims against JOBA and Digital. In March 2002, Voice-Tel and JOBA and Digital sought leave of court to file amended complaints and answers, which the court granted as to JOBA and Digital and granted in part and denied in part as to Voice-Tel. The Digital Franchise Agreement contained a mandatory arbitration provision, which was not found in the JOBA Franchise Agreement. Therefore, on April 10, 2002, the federal court severed the Digital breach of franchise agreement claims and ordered them to be arbitrated. The Court ordered that all remaining claims, including but not limited to the breach of franchise agreement claims as to JOBA, would remain in federal court. The arbitration is currently scheduled for July 13, 2002 and will be held in Atlanta, Georgia. There is a proposal outstanding that all parties agree to submit all claims to arbitration including the Federal Court claims. At this time, this proposal has not been agreed to by any of the parties. Discovery with respect to the arbitration will end on June 25, 2003. On July 10, 2002, JOBA and Digital moved to amend their Complaint to add claims for constructive termination of their franchises, which was subsequently denied by the court on September 11, 2002. On July 16, 2002, Voicecom Telecommunications, LLC (“Voicecom”) was added as a party Plaintiff in the lawsuit against JOBA and Digital. With the exception of expert and damages testimony, discovery has now concluded and the parties are awaiting a trial date contingent on the parties agreeing to submit all claims to arbitration. The parties have filed motions and cross motions for partial summary judgment, including responses thereto. A mediation of all claims between all parties was held on March 24, 2003, which failed to resolve any of the issues in litigation.

On January 30, 2002, a complaint was filed by 15 Lake Bellevue, LLC in the Superior Court of King County, Washington. Plaintiff sought to enforce a Lease Guaranty Agreement entered into by the Company on behalf of Webforia, Inc. with respect to a lease for commercial real estate located in Bellevue, King County, Washington. The Company’s potential liability under the Guaranty was limited to the lesser of the lease obligations or $2,000,000, together with attorneys’ fees, interest and collection expenses. The Company filed an answer to the lawsuit, and on May 17, 2002, the plaintiff filed a motion for partial summary judgment. On June 18, 2002, the court entered an order finding unconditional liability on the part of the Company with respect to the guaranty but reserving the issue of the amount of the Company’s liability for trial. On December 31, 2002 the parties entered into a settlement agreement resolving in full all claims asserted by each party against the other.

On March 25, 2003, EasyLink Services Corporation (“EasyLink”) filed an amended complaint against the Company, Xpedite and AT&T Corp. (“AT&T”), in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Chancery Division: Middlesex County. EasyLink’s complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company entered into an agreement to purchase a secured promissory note in the original principal amount of $10 million and 1,423,980 shares of EasyLink’s Class A common stock for the purpose of obtaining EasyLink’s business by using the acquired securities to block a debt restructuring that EasyLink was allegedly pursuing with its creditors, including AT&T, and for other improper motives. EasyLink’s complaint alleges that it pursued such debt restructuring in reliance on its understanding that AT&T would participate in the restructuring on certain terms to which EasyLink and AT&T allegedly had agreed, and that AT&T misled EasyLink as to its intentions with respect to such restructuring. The complaint further alleges that AT&T disclosed confidential information of EasyLink to the Company in violation of AT&T’s agreements with EasyLink, and that such information was used by AT&T and the Company in furtherance of a joint scheme to force EasyLink out of the marketplace. EasyLink’s complaint also alleges that employees of the Company and Xpedite have knowingly made false statements to EasyLink’s customers, investors and creditors regarding EasyLink and its financial stability. EasyLink claims that these various actions have impaired its ability to restructure its debt effectively and caused it to suffer various other commercial losses. EasyLink’s complaint seeks to (i) enjoin AT&T from selling the secured promissory note to the Company, improperly interfering with EasyLink’s business and contracts and disclosing EasyLink’s confidential information without EasyLink’s consent; (ii) compel AT&T to consummate EasyLink’s proposed restructuring; (iii) enjoin the Company and Xpedite from making false statements to EasyLink’s customers and creditors regarding EasyLink and its financial position; (iv) enjoin the Company from contacting EasyLink’s creditors and preventing the restructuring of EasyLink’s debt; and (v) enjoin the Company and Xpedite from using EasyLink’s confidential information and contacting EasyLink’s current and former employees to obtain such confidential information. EasyLink’s complaint also seeks unspecified damages from AT&T and the Company. The Company intends to answer and defend this lawsuit.

The Company is also involved in various other legal proceedings which the Company does not believe will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations, although no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of any such proceedings.

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

The Company’s common stock, $.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), has traded on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol “PTEK” since its initial public offering on March 5, 1996. The following table sets forth the high and low closing sales prices of the Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market for the periods indicated.

2002	High		Low
First Quarter	$	4.40	$	3.24
Second Quarter		5.73		4.07
Third Quarter		5.82		4.35
Fourth Quarter		4.69		2.74

2001	High		Low
First Quarter	$	3.13	$	1.31
Second Quarter		2.95		2.13
Third Quarter		3.70		1.77
Fourth Quarter		3.87		2.00

The closing price of the Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market on March 12, 2003 was $3.68. As of March 12, 2003 there were 487 record holders and approximately 11,600 beneficial holders of the Company’s Common Stock.

The Company has never paid cash dividends on its Common Stock, and the current policy of the Company’s Board of Directors is to retain any available earnings for use in the operation and expansion of the Company’s business. The payment of cash dividends on the common stock is unlikely in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon the Company’s earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and any other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.

During the year ended December 31, 2002, certain current and former employees exercised options to purchase an aggregate of 47,080 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $0.71 per share to $1.61 per share in transactions exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) and Rule 701 of the Securities Act. In the third quarter of 2002, the Company issued 601,997 shares of Common Stock, of which 352,997 shares were returned in November 2002, pursuant to the terms of a settlement to multiple class action lawsuits in the United Stated District Court for the Northern District of Georgia brought by a class of individuals (including a subclass of former Voice-Tel Enterprises, Inc. franchisees and a subclass of former Xpedite Systems, Inc. shareholders) who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s Common Stock from as early as February 11, 1997 through June 10, 1998. The remaining 249,000 shares were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act.

1) Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period from convertible preferred stock, convertible subordinated notes (using the if-converted method) and from stock options (using the treasury stock method).

On March 26, 2002 the Company sold substantially all of the assets of the Voicecom operating segment, exclusive of its Australian operations, to Gores Technology Group, for a total purchase price of approximately $22.4 million, comprised of cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the transaction was accounted for as a discontinued operation. See Discontinued Operations section of “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

PTEK Holdings, Inc., a Georgia corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company” or “PTEK”) is a global provider of business communications services, including conferencing (audio conferencing and Web-based collaboration) and multimedia messaging (high-volume actionable communications, including e-mail, wireless messaging, voice message delivery and fax). The Company’s reportable segments align the Company into two operating segments based on product offering. These segments are Premiere Conferencing and Xpedite. Premiere Conferencing offers a full suite of enhanced audio, automated audio and Web conferencing services for all forms of group communications activities. Xpedite offers a comprehensive suite of business services that enable actionable two-way communications which allow companies to better acquire and retain customers as well as automate their core business processes. In addition, the Company had one other reportable segment, Voicecom, which the Company exited through a sale, exclusive of its Australian operations, effective March 26, 2002. Voicecom offered a suite of integrated communications solutions, including voice messaging, interactive voice response services and unified communications. Retail Calling Card Services is a business segment that the Company exited through the sale of its revenue base effective August 1, 2000. The Company also exited the venture business in 2001, which was conducted through PtekVentures, the Company’s investment arm.

Revenues of the Company are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenues consist of fixed monthly fees, and usage fees generally based on per minute or transaction rates. Unbilled revenue consists of earned but unbilled revenue which results from the weekly billing cycle that was implemented at Premiere Conferencing during the third quarter of 2002. Deferred revenue consists of payments made by customers in advance of the time services are rendered. The Company’s revenue recognition policies are consistent with the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,” as amended by SAB No. 101A and 101B.

“Cost of revenues” includes telecommunication costs and direct operating costs exclusive of depreciation as defined below. Telecommunication costs consist primarily of the cost of metered and fixed telecommunication related costs incurred in providing the Company’s services. Direct operating costs consist primarily of salaries and wages, travel, consulting fees and facility costs associated with maintaining and operating the Company’s various revenue-generating platforms and telecommunication networks, regulatory fees and non-telecommunication costs directly associated with providing services and all costs associated with international hardware system sales.

“Selling and marketing” costs consist primarily of salaries and wages, travel and entertainment, advertising, commissions and facility costs associated with the functions of selling or marketing the Company’s services.

“General and administrative” costs consist primarily of salaries and wages associated with billing, customer service, order processing, executive management and administrative functions that support the Company’s operations. Bad debt expense associated with customer accounts is also included in this caption.

13

“Research and development” costs consist primarily of salaries and wages, travel, consulting fees and facilities costs associated with developing product enhancements and new product development.

“Depreciation” and “amortization” includes depreciation of computer and telecommunications equipment, furniture and fixtures, office equipment, leasehold improvements and amortization of intangible assets. The Company provides for depreciation using the straight-line method of depreciation over the estimated useful lives of property and equipment, generally two to ten years, with the exception of leasehold improvements which are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the term of the lease or the useful life of the assets. Intangible assets being amortized include goodwill (prior to 2002), customer lists, developed technology and assembled work force (prior to 2002). Intangible assets are amortized over the useful life of the asset generally ranging from three to seven years.

“Restructuring costs” represent severance, exit costs and contractual obligation costs associated with the realignment of workforces and the exit of certain businesses.

“Asset impairments” represent the adjustment of the carrying value of long-lived assets to current fair value under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” effective January 1, 2002 and SFAS 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,” for all periods prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 144. Long-lived assets subject to this fair value assessment were goodwill, customer lists, developed technology and property, plant and equipment.

“Equity based compensation” relates primarily to restricted stock granted to employees in exchange for options, restricted stock granted to certain officers of PTEK and one of its operating units, and the cancellation of notes receivable from certain executive officers of the Company for the taxes owed by such officers with respect to certain restricted stock grants and the taxes related thereto. In addition, it includes the non-cash cost of stock options and restricted stock issued to consultants for services rendered.

“Net legal settlements and related expenses” represent the costs incurred or management’s estimate of costs that will more likely than not be incurred related to various legal contingencies and related matters.

“Interest expense” includes the interest costs associated with the Company’s convertible subordinated notes, term equipment loans and various capital lease obligations.

“Interest income” includes interest earned on highly liquid investments with a maturity at date of purchase of three months or less and interest on employee loans.

“Gain on sale of marketable securities” includes proceeds less commissions in excess of original cost on the sale of marketable securities available for sale. These marketable securities are traded on a national exchange with a readily determinable market price.

“Asset impairment and obligations – investments” includes the adjustment of the carrying value of non-public investments accounted for under the cost or equity method to current fair value and obligations incurred by the Company as a result of these investments.

“Amortization of goodwill – equity investments” relates to the amortization of the excess of purchase price over the pro-rata net carrying value of investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The equity method of accounting for an investment is used when the Company exerts significant management influence over the investee.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates. See also the section entitled “Critical Accounting Policies.” The following discussion and analysis provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements contained herein and notes thereto.

14

On January 1, 2001, management responsibility for international conferencing services was transferred from Xpedite to Premiere Conferencing. Prior to that date, these international revenues were reported in the Xpedite operating segment. The revenues of the Australian operations of Voicecom that were retained in conjunction with the sale of this operating segment are reported in the international results of Xpedite effective January 1, 2002. In order to report comparable operating segment financial results, certain financial information for years prior to 2001 has been reclassified in Management’s Discussion and Analysis. Overall, these reclassifications did not have a material impact on the financial results of the operating segments for the periods presented.

Revenues

Consolidated revenues from continuing operations increased 3.3% to $341.3 million in 2002 from $330.4 million in 2001, and increased 9.0% in 2001 from $303.2 million in 2000. Revenues in the Company’s operating segments are as follows:

Xpedite revenue was 59.5%, 65.3% and 75.9% of consolidated revenues for 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Xpedite revenue decreased 5.9% to $202.9 million in 2002 from $215.7 million in 2001 and decreased 6.3% in 2001 from $230.1 million in 2000. The decline in revenue in 2002 is mainly attributable to decreased rates of approximately 23.9% from 2001 in Xpedite’s traditional or “legacy” store and forward fax business as a result of price compression in this market from increased competition and decreased demand. In addition, volumes for these products decreased approximately 5.5% as a percentage of total volumes from 2001. The decline in revenue in 2001 is primarily attributable to a general decline in the second half of 2001 in demand and price compression in the traditional store and forward fax business primarily caused by weakness in the hospitality and financial services industries worldwide along with a general weakness in foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar. In the fourth quarter of 2000 and the first quarter of 2001, Xpedite made three customer base acquisitions which generated approximately $12.0 million and $9.9 million in revenue in 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Premiere Conferencing revenue was 40.6%, 34.8% and 24.2% of consolidated revenues for 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Premiere Conferencing revenue increased 20.2% to $138.5 million in 2002 from $115.1 million in 2001 and increased 57.0% in 2001 from $73.4 million in 2000. The increases in 2002 and 2001 are attributable to growth in Premiere Conferencing’s automated conferencing service, ReadyConference, of approximately 8.2% of segment revenue over the prior year in 2002 and approximately 18.5% of segment revenue in 2001. In addition, this increase is related to an expansion of these services into key foreign markets and growth in Web conferencing services. Management expects revenue growth in this operating segment to continue, primarily driven by growth in minutes of use. The Company believes audio conferencing revenue will continue to grow through minute volume with some decline in average revenue per minute.

Consolidated revenues on a geographic region basis increased in North America to $228.8 million or 67.0% of consolidated revenues in 2002 from $223.8 million or 67.7% of consolidated revenues in 2001 and increased from $187.6 million or 61.9% of consolidated revenues in 2000. As a percentage of consolidated revenues, North America revenue decreased 0.7% from 2001 to 2002 and increased 5.9% from 2000 to 2001. Consolidated revenues in Europe increased $6.2 million, from $50.4 million or 15.3% of consolidated revenues in 2001 to $56.6 million or 16.6% of consolidated revenues in 2002. In 2001, European revenues decreased $0.4 million, from $50.8 million for the comparable period in 2000. As a percentage of consolidated revenues, European revenue increased 1.3%

17

from 2001 to 2002 and decreased 1.5% from 2000 to 2001. Consolidated revenues in Asia Pacific decreased $0.3 million, from $56.2 million or 17.0% of consolidated revenues in 2001 to $55.9 million or 16.4% of consolidated revenues in 2002. In 2001, Asia Pacific revenues decreased $8.6 million, from $64.8 million in 2000. As a percentage of consolidated revenues, Asia Pacific revenue decreased 0.6% from 2001 to 2002 and decreased 4.4% from 2000 to 2001. In 2002, the Company experienced revenue growth in the European region mainly as a result of the expansion of Premiere Conferencing in that region and a customer base acquisition at Xpedite, which also accounted for a majority of the domestic growth in 2002. International revenue declines in 2001 were mainly caused by weakness in the hospitality and financial services industry along with significant declines in real-time fax pricing in Asia Pacific in 2000 due to deregulation of most Asian telecommunication markets. The Company believes it will have continued growth in revenues in both the European and Asia Pacific regions as it continues to expand internationally.

Cost of revenues

Consolidated cost of revenues were 34.5%, 37.9% and 41.6% of consolidated revenues in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Consolidated cost of revenues from continuing operations decreased 6.1% to $117.7 million in 2002 from $125.3 million in 2001, and decreased 0.6% in 2001 from $126.0 million in 2000. Cost of revenues in the Company’s operating segments are as follows:

Xpedite cost of revenue were 30.3%, 34.0%, and 38.0% of segment revenue in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Xpedite cost of revenue decreased 16.2% to $61.4 million in 2002 from $73.3 million in 2001, and decreased 16.3% in 2001 from $87.5 million in 2000. In 2002 and 2001 cost of revenue decreased due to decreases in per minute telecommunications rates for the Xpedite worldwide network, as well as increased sales of messageREACH and voiceREACH products, which carry lower cost of revenues. Lower telecommunications costs have become the general industry trend over the past several years. Xpedite utilizes several telecommunication service providers and, accordingly, can direct traffic to providers offering the lowest rates. These decreases were slightly offset by direct operating costs increases from 2001 to 2002 of approximately 1.0% as a result of the increase in Xpedite’s hardware sales in Japan, which carries a 70% direct cost, and an increase in message volume related to messageREACH and voiceREACH products of approximately 5.5% of consolidated volumes compared to 2001. In 2001, direct operating costs increased 0.9% primarily due to increased message volume from messageREACH and voiceREACH products of 12.2% of consolidated volumes compared to 2000.

Premiere Conferencing cost of revenue were 40.7%, 45.1% and 52.9% of segment revenue in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Premiere Conferencing’s cost of revenue increased 8.4% to $56.3 million in 2002 from $52.0 million in 2001, and increased 34.0% in 2001 from $38.8 million in 2000. In 2002, cost of revenue declined as a percentage of segment revenue as the decline in the average price per minute for its services was greater than the decrease in telecommunications costs. Cost of revenue decreased as a percent of segment revenue in 2001 primarily due to significant decreases in per minute telecommunications transport costs. The significant decreases in telecommunication costs are the result of the general industry price declines seen for long distance delivery. Premiere Conferencing utilizes several telecommunication service providers and, accordingly, can direct traffic to providers offering the lowest rates. In addition, in 2002 and 2001, direct operating costs as a percentage of segment revenue decreased 5.0% and 5.1%, respectively, due to the growth in the automated ReadyConference product, which carries a low direct cost compared to the operator-assisted product because it does not require an operator to facilitate the conference call. Revenue from this product grew to approximately 69% of segment revenue in 2002 from approximately 60% in 2001.

Gross margin

Consolidated gross margin from continuing operations as a percentage of consolidated revenues was 65.5%, 62.1%, and 58.4% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Consolidated gross margin from continuing operations increased 9.0% to $223.6 million in 2002 from $205.1 million in 2001, and increased 15.8% in 2001 from $177.2 million in 2000. Gross margin in the Company’s operating segments were as follows:

Xpedite’s gross margin as a percentage of segment revenue was 69.7%, 66.0%, and 62.0% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Xpedite’s gross margin decreased 0.6% to $141.5 million in 2002 from $142.4 million in 2001, and decreased 0.1% in 2001 from $142.6 million in 2000.

18

Premiere Conferencing’s gross margin as a percentage of segment revenue was 59.3%, 54.9%, and 47.1% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Premiere Conferencing’s gross margin increased 30.0% to $82.2 million in 2002 from $63.2 million in 2001, and increased 82.2% in 2001 from $34.6 million in 2000.

Selling and marketing

Consolidated selling and marketing costs from continuing operations as a percent of consolidated revenues were 26.2%, 22.8% and 22.4% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Consolidated selling and marketing costs from continuing operations increased 17.8% to $89.0 million in 2002 from $75.5 million in 2001, and increased 11.2% in 2001 from $67.9 million in 2000. Selling and marketing costs in the Company’s operating segments were as follows:

Xpedite selling and marketing costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 30.4%, 24.8% and 23.5% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Xpedite selling and marketing costs increased 15.0% to $61.6 million in 2002 from $53.6 million in 2001, and decreased 0.6% in 2001 from $53.9 million in 2000. In 2002, the increase was due primarily to an increased sales and marketing headcount of 29 employees. In 2001, the increase as a percentage of segment revenue was primarily due to the higher costs of launching messageREACH globally.

Premiere Conferencing selling and marketing costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 19.8%, 18.5% and 17.7% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Premiere Conferencing selling and marketing costs increased 28.3% to $27.4 million in 2002 from $21.3 million in 2001, and increased 64.8% in 2001 from $13.0 million in 2000. In 2002 and 2001, the 1.3% and 0.8%, increases as a percent of segment revenue were due primarily to increased sales and marketing headcount of 86 and 74 employees in 2002 and 2001, respectively.

General and administrative

Consolidated general and administrative costs from continuing operations as a percentage of consolidated revenues were 16.4%, 17.6% and 15.7% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Consolidated general and administrative costs from continuing operations decreased 4.2% to $55.8 million in 2002 from $58.3 million in 2001, and increased 17.4% in 2001 from $49.6 million in 2000. General and administrative costs in the Company’s operating segments were as follows:

Xpedite general and administrative costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 13.6%, 14.5% and 11.9% in 2002, 2001 and 2000 respectively. Xpedite general and administrative costs decreased 12.3% to $27.5 million in 2002 from $31.4 million in 2001, and increased 14.5% in 2001 from $27.4 million in 2000. The decrease in general and administrative costs as a percentage of segment revenue from 2001 to 2002 of 0.9% is due primarily to reductions in headcount in administration and customer service during early 2002. The increase from 2000 to 2001 of 2.6% of segment revenue is primarily due to increased headcount in administration and customer service.

Premiere Conferencing general and administrative costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 9.1%, 9.6% and 8.1% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Premiere Conferencing general and administrative costs increased 13.2% to $12.5 million in 2002 from $11.1 million in 2001, and increased 86.9% in 2001 from $5.9 million in 2000. In 2002, general and administrative costs as a percentage of segment revenue declined despite an overall dollar increase of $1.4 million. This is primarily due to the growth in Premiere Conferencing automated revenue as a percentage of consolidated revenues. The Company believes that its ReadyConference product is highly scalable and does not require proportional increases in back office support. The increase from 2001 to 2000 is primarily due to infrastructure support increases related to the overall expansion of the Premiere Conferencing operating segment.

Holding Company general and administrative costs as a percentage of consolidated revenues were 4.6%, 4.9% and 5.6% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Holding Company general and administrative costs were $15.8 million, $16.3 million and $15.6 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The $0.5 million decrease from 2001 to 2002 is primarily due to salary reductions, which were offset in part by approximately $1.6 million in acquisition-related costs that could not be applied to a specific transaction during 2002. The $0.7 million increase from 2000 to 2001 is primarily the result of costs associated with the PtekVentures business.

19

Research and development

Consolidated research and development costs from continuing operations as a percentage of consolidated revenues were 2.1%, 3.4% and 2.8% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Consolidated research and development costs from continuing operations decreased 34.7% to $7.2 million in 2002 from $11.1 million in 2001, and increased 28.8% in 2001 from $8.6 million in 2000. Research and development costs in the Company’s operating segments were as follows:

Xpedite research and development costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 2.7%, 4.1% and 3.3% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Xpedite research and development costs decreased 39.2% to $5.4 million in 2002 from $8.9 million in 2001, and increased 18.7% in 2001 from $7.5 million in 2000. In 2002, research and development costs as a percentage of segment revenue decreased as a result of a reduction in headcount, increased capitalized development costs of approximately $1.6 million and management’s continued policy of initiating only those development projects with a high probability of economic benefit. The increase in 2001 was attributable to continued development of the messageREACH and voiceREACH products.

Premiere Conferencing research and development costs as a percentage of segment revenue were 1.3%, 1.9% and 1.5% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Premiere Conferencing research and development costs decreased 16.0% to $1.8 million in 2002 from $2.2 million in 2001, and increased 98.6% in 2001 from $1.1 million in 2000. In 2002, the slight decrease as a percentage of segment revenue is due to management’s continued policy of initiating only those development projects with a high probability of economic benefit. The slight increase in 2001 was primarily attributable to increased headcount of eight employees needed for the continued development of ReadyConference, ReadyCast and VisionCast.

Depreciation

Consolidated depreciation costs from continuing operations as a percentage of consolidated revenues were 6.3%, 6.3% and 6.5% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Consolidated depreciation costs from continuing operations increased 4.0% to $21.5 million in 2002 from $20.7 million in 2001, and increased 4.6% in 2001 from $19.8 million in 2000. Depreciation costs in the Company’s operating segments were as follows:

Xpedite depreciation costs were 6.5%, 6.3% and 5.1% of segment revenue in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Xpedite depreciation costs decreased 3.2% to $13.1 million in 2002 from $13.6 million in 2001, and increased 16.4% in 2001 from $11.7 million in 2000. This represents a $0.5 million decrease in costs from 2001 to 2002 and a $1.9 million increase from 2000 to 2001. The $0.5 million decrease is attributable to the timing of depreciation for capital expenditures purchased in the later half of 2001. The $1.9 million increase in 2001 is related to increased capital expenditures in the latter half of 2000 and first half of 2001 related to messageREACH and voiceREACH.

Premiere Conferencing depreciation costs were 5.4%, 6.0% and 8.2% of segment revenue in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Premiere Conferencing depreciation costs increased 6.1% to $7.5 million in 2002 from $7.1 million in 2001, and increased 18.0% in 2001 from $6.0 million in 2000. This represents a $0.4 million increase from 2001 to 2002 and a $1.1 million increase from 2000 to 2001. The 2002 percentage decrease is due to the significant segment revenue growth in 2002. In 2001 the increase in depreciation in terms of dollars is attributable to increased capital expenditures in 2000 and 2001 to provide additional capacity to accommodate the growth of the business.

Holding Company depreciation costs were $0.9 million, $0.8 million and $2.2 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. This represents a $0.1 million increase from 2001 to 2002 and a $1.4 million decrease from 2000 to 2001. The decrease in depreciation from 2000 to 2001 was associated with the normal run out of depreciable assets not replaced.

Amortization

Consolidated amortization from continuing operations as a percentage of consolidated revenues was 3.2%, 26.8% and 29.8% in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Consolidated amortization from continuing operations was $10.9 million, $88.6 million and $90.2 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Goodwill amortization was $0.0 million, $65.1 million and $65.1 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Other intangibles amortization, which consist primarily of customer lists, developed technology and assembled workforce was $10.9 million, $23.5

20

million and $25.1 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. With the adoption of SFAS No. 142, “Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” which became effective January 1, 2002, the Company no longer records amortization expense associated with goodwill, but instead goodwill is subject to a periodic impairment assessment by applying a fair value based test. This analysis was completed for the year ended December 31, 2002 and no impairment was identified. Amortization as a percentage of revenues, exclusive of goodwill amortization, would have been 3.2%, 7.1% and 8.3%, for 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The decline in amortization in 2001 is primarily related to the impairment of certain other intangibles during the fourth quarter of 2001. Other intangibles amortization decreased in 2002 and 2001 due to customer list impairments associated with the Xpedite operating segment. See “Asset impairments” below for a further discussion related to these impairments.

Restructuring costs

Realignment of Workforce – Fourth Quarter 2002

In the fourth quarter of 2002, Xpedite and the Holding Company terminated employees pursuant to a plan to shrink headcount and reduce sales and administration costs. The plan called for the reduction of 54 and 5 employees at Xpedite and the Holding Company, respectively. The combined costs associated with the restructuring plan are $1.5 million, of which $0.3 million was paid in 2002. Of the remaining balance, $0.8 million, $0.3 million and $0.1 million will be paid in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Virtually all costs will be paid in cash. This restructuring plan will eliminate approximately $1.4 million and $0.6 million in annual costs at Xpedite and the Holding Company, respectively. Also, in the fourth quarter of 2002 Xpedite decided to exit the voice messaging business in Australia due to declining revenue and the need to make substantial capital investments. The costs associated with exiting this business of $0.3 million are primarily non-cash and represent the loss on disposal of the voice messaging assets.

Realignment of Workforce and Facilities – Fourth Quarter 2001

Due to continued revenue declines not anticipated by management in both the Voicecom and Xpedite operating segments in the second half of 2001, plans for additional workforce cost reductions were established and personnel were notified during the fourth quarter of 2001. The plan commitment reduces annual operating expenses by $7.6 million. The plan eliminated, through involuntary separation, approximately 120 non-sales force employees in both Voicecom and Xpedite and eliminated 143 network equipment sites in the Voicecom operating segment. The overall management plan allowed for reinvesting these cost savings into additional sales force employees in order to stabilize the decline in revenues in both operating segments. Accordingly, the Company accrued restructuring costs of approximately $4.1 million associated with this plan commitment. Cash payments in 2002 and 2001 associated with this plan were $2.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The Company expects to incur $0.4 million of additional cash payments in 2003 to satisfy this plan obligation. Of the $4.1 million of costs associated with this plan, approximately $0.7 million of non-cash charges were incurred for severance cost obligations paid through immediately vested stock options issued below market price on the date of grant. Accordingly, this portion of the restructuring costs was recorded as additional paid-in-capital. The remaining costs at December 31, 2002 and 2001 were $0.4 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

Realignment of Workforce and Facilities – Second Quarter 2001

During the second quarter of 2001, management committed to a plan to reduce annual operating expenses by approximately $13.7 million through the elimination of certain operating activities in its Voicecom and Xpedite operating segments, and at the Holding Company, and the corresponding reductions in personnel costs relating to the Company’s operations, sales and administration. The plan eliminated, through involuntary separation, approximately 168 non-sales force employees and allowed the Company to exit duplicative facilities in the Voicecom business segments. Accordingly, the Company accrued restructuring costs of approximately $6.7 million associated with this plan commitment. The Company expects to incur a total of approximately $5.0 million of cash payments related to severance, exit costs and contractual obligations associated with the $6.7 million plan costs. Approximately $0.8 million and $3.8 million of these cash payments were made by December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and were primarily related to severance and exit cost activities. The remaining cash payments are associated with severance costs, exit costs and contractual obligations and are expected to be paid in 2003. Approximately $1.7 million of non-cash charges recorded in 2001 are related to certain executive management severance costs from employee stock option modifications and forgiveness of employee notes receivable. Accordingly, this portion of the restructuring costs was recorded as additional paid-in-capital. The remaining costs at December 31, 2002 and 2001 were approximately $40,000 and $1.2 million, respectively.

21

Exit from Asia Real-Time Fax and Telex Business

During the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company recorded a charge of $0.6 million for costs associated with Xpedite’s decision to exit its legacy real-time fax and telex business in Asia. This service depended on significant price disparities between regulated incumbent telecommunications carriers and Xpedite’s cost of delivery over its fixed-cost network. With the deregulation of most Asian telecommunications markets, Xpedite’s cost advantage dissipated, and the Company decided to exit this service and concentrate on higher value-added services such as transactional messaging and messageREACH. The $0.6 million charge included contractual and other obligations totaling $0.4 million and severance costs of $0.2 million. During 2001, the Company paid the remaining severance obligations planned for and does not expect any further payments.

Decentralization of Company

In the third quarter of 1999, the Company recorded restructuring, merger costs and other special charges of approximately $8.2 million in connection with its reorganization from the two EES (Emerging Enterprise Solutions) and CES (Corporate Enterprise Solutions) operating units into three operating business units, a retail calling card business, and a holding company. The $8.2 million charge is comprised of $7.3 million of severance and exit costs, $0.7 million of lease termination costs and $0.2 million of facility exit costs. The decentralization plan of the Company was completed and all payments were made during 2000.

Reorganization of Company into EES and CES Business Groups

In the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company recorded a charge of $11.4 million to reorganize the Company into two business segments that focused on specific groups of customers. The balance of severance and exit costs at December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 of $0.0 million, $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, represents remaining severance reserve for a former executive manager. Cash severance payments in 2002 and 2001 were $0.1 and $0.5 million, respectively. The Company paid the remaining severance obligations during 2002 and does not expect any further payments.

Asset impairments

The following table summarizes the asset impairments from continuing operations incurred by operating segment for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 (in thousands):

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long Lived Assets.” During the fourth quarter of 2002 the Company assessed the carrying value of the customer lists at Xpedite pursuant to SFAS No. 144 as Xpedite experienced a decline in revenues in certain international markets during the later half of 2002. Using the best estimate approach, the fair value of certain customer lists associated with the markets experiencing the decline were determined to be less than the carrying value at December 31, 2002, resulting in a $3.2 million asset impairment. The remaining amortization of the other intangible assets will be approximately $3.9 million, $2.0 million and $1.9 million in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

During the second half of 2001, business conditions declined significantly in the Xpedite operating segment. The following is a comparison of revenue performance for the first six months of 2001 versus the second six months of 2001 (in thousands).

22

	First Six Months 2001 Xpedite		Second Six Months 2001 Xpedite		% Change Xpedite
Revenue	$	112,552	$	103,113	-8.4	%

During the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company assessed the outlook of various service offering revenues and evaluated the potential impairment of various assets associated with the operating equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets of Xpedite pursuant to SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.” Management reviewed the identifiable undiscounted future cash flows, including the estimated residual value to be generated by the assets to be held and used by the business acquired in Xpedite at their asset grouping level. Based on the results of these assessments, the Company recorded the $100.8 million impairment in the fourth quarter of 2001 from continuing operations ($99.0 million of which was related to Xpedite, as discussed further below).

Xpedite impairment - 2001

In Xpedite, a decline in the legacy store and forward fax revenues and weakness in the European and Asia Pacific regions of the business began to occur in the latter part of the third quarter and the early part of the fourth quarter of 2001. Accordingly, management was concerned that a fair value assessment would potentially be lower than the carrying value on the balance sheet. A third party appraisal was performed using a discounted cash flow income approach to valuing the business, using a 15% discount rate. The valuation resulted in an asset impairment related to the Xpedite operating segment of $99.0 million to reflect the carrying value in excess of fair value at December 31, 2001. Of the $99.0 million, property and equipment impairments of $0.7 million at Xpedite related primarily to the abandonment of its Indonesian operations due to declining revenues and profits. Indonesia represented less than 1% of Xpedite’s revenues.

Other impairments - 2001

Additionally, management recorded asset impairments totaling $1.8 million related to the carrying value of capitalized software associated with certain internal information systems at both Premiere Conferencing and the Holding Company that have been taken out of service.

Real-time fax impairment - 2000

With the deregulation of most Asian telecommunications markets, Xpedite’s cost advantage dissipated, and Xpedite decided to exit this service and concentrate on higher value-added services such as transactional messaging and messageREACH. The asset impairments of $0.8 million included the write-down of furniture and fixtures and real-time fax equipment including autodialers, faxpads and computers. The valuation was based on the fair value of the assets as of December 31, 2000. All equipment costs were incurred in conjunction with the closing of the real-time fax operations in Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Korea.

Equity based compensation charges

Options exchanged for restricted shares

Due to declines in the Company’s share price over the course of the last several years, most of the employee and director option holders had options with exercise prices in excess of the market price of Company stock. In order to provide better performance incentives for employees and directors and to align the employees’ and directors’ interests with those of the shareholders, in the fourth quarter of 2001 the Company offered an exchange program in which it granted one restricted share of common stock in exchange for every 2.5 options tendered. Approximately 6.0 million employee and director stock options were exchanged for approximately 2.4 million shares of restricted stock on December 28, 2001, the date of the exchange. The restricted shares maintain the same vesting schedules as those of the original options exchanged, except that in the case of tendered options that were vested on the exchange date, the restricted shares received in exchange therefore vested on the day after the exchange date. To the extent options were vested at the exchange date, the Company recognized equity based compensation expense determined by using the closing price of the Company’s common stock at December 28, 2001, which was $3.32 a share. To the extent that restricted shares were received for unvested options exchanged, this cost was deferred on the balance sheet under the caption “Unearned restricted share compensation.” This value was also determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the exchange. The unearned restricted share compensation will be recognized as equity based compensation expense as these shares vest. In 2002 approximately 402,000 shares vested and equity based compensation expense of $1.3 million was recognized. Assuming all employees at December 31, 2002 will remain employed by the Company through their vesting period, the equity based compensation expense in future years resulting from the restricted shares issued in the option exchange will be $0.4 million in 2003 and $0.2 million in 2004. See further discussion in the “Restricted Stock Exchange Offer” section of Note 17—“Equity Based Compensation Plans.”

In addition, approximately 890,000 options that were eligible to be exchanged for restricted shares pursuant to the exchange offer were not tendered. At December 31, 2002, the option count was approximately 627,000 due to the sale of Voicecom and other cancellations of these options. These options will be subject to variable accounting until such options are exercised, are forfeited, or expire unexercised. These options have exercise prices ranging from $5.32 to $29.25. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, no charge was recorded because the exercise price of each of the options was greater than the market value of the Company’s common stock.

Restricted shares issued to management

Certain members of management of the Company were awarded discretionary bonuses in the form of restricted shares in November 2001. The purpose of these discretionary bonuses was to better align management’s performance with the interests of the shareholders. Certain of these restricted shares vested immediately in 2001 and were restricted from trading for a one-year period. The remaining restricted shares vest straight line through

24

2004 and the equity based compensation expense recorded in 2002 was $0.5 million. The anticipated remaining equity based compensation expense resulting therefrom will be approximately $0.6 million per year for 2003 and 2004.

Loans and note forgiveness associated with restricted shares in former affiliates and related taxes

During the second quarter of 1999, the Company awarded restricted share grants to the CEO, COO and certain other officers of Company-owned shares held in certain investments in affiliates made in connection with its PtekVentures activities. The vesting periods for these shares ranged from immediately upon grant to three years, contingent on the executive being employed by the Company. In connection with this action, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $1.2 million in 2000 related to the vesting of these grants.

In 1999 and 2000, the Company loaned $6.3 million with recourse to the current CEO and COO to pay taxes in connection with these restricted share grants. These loans were due on December 31, 2006, accrued interest at 6.20% and were secured by the restricted shares granted. In March 2000, the Company agreed to forgive one-seventh of the principal plus accrued interest on such loans as of December 31, 2000, provided that the executives were employees of the Company on that date. Such amounts were forgiven as of December 31, 2000.

In 2001, the Company agreed to forgive the remaining balance of the recourse tax loans to the CEO and COO, effective as of December 31, 2001, provided that the executives were employees of the Company on that date. The principal and interest forgiven was $5.8 million and the employee tax liability assumed by the Company was $5.3 million. The tax liability was paid primarily in the first quarter of 2002.

Notes receivable – employees

During 2002, the Company loaned approximately $2.0 million with recourse to certain members of management to pay taxes in connection with the restricted shares issued in exchange for options in December 2001 and the discretionary restricted shares issued in November 2001. These loans are due in 2012, accrue interest at a weighted average rate of 5.5%, and are secured by the restricted shares granted. The total interest accrued on these loans as of December 31, 2002 was approximately $0.1 million. The Company is obligated to make additional loans to pay taxes associated with the future vesting of restricted shares, but the dollar amount of such loans cannot be determined at this time.

Compensation to management in association with restricted shares in former affiliates

In 2001, the Company approved discretionary bonuses in the aggregate amount of $0.5 million to two executive vice presidents of the Company who were awarded restricted share grants in affiliates during the second quarter of 1999, which shares had lost significant market value since the dates of grant.

Options and restricted shares issued for services rendered

In 2001, the Company issued stock options and restricted shares of Company Common Stock to consultants for various consulting services performed for the Company.

Net legal settlements and related expenses

Net legal settlements and related expenses were $7.3 million, $2.3 million and $(1.5) million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. See Note 20—“Commitments and Contingencies” to the Consolidated Financial Statements and “Legal Proceedings” under Item 3 of Part I of this report. Net legal settlements and related expenses in 2002 consisted of approximately $3.3 million attributable to the settlement of the shareholder class action lawsuit and $4.0 million for the settlement of the Cowan lawsuit. Net legal settlements and related expenses in 2001 were primarily related to $1.6 million of costs incurred that relate to shareholder litigation matters. Net legal settlements and related expenses in 2000 related primarily to the favorable settlement of a contractual dispute with MCI.

Interest expense

Interest expense from continuing operations was $11.5 million, $11.5 million and $11.3 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Interest expense remained constant in 2002, and increased slightly in 2001 primarily due to long term financing for facility improvements to Xpedite’s new headquarters and Premiere Conferencing entering into a term equipment loan for $6.5 million in late 2001.

25

Interest income

Interest income was $1.5 million, $0.6 million and $0.9 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Interest income increased in 2002 primarily due to growth in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $19.9 million from 2001 to 2002 that was invested in interest bearing accounts, and from interest accrued for employee loans. Interest income remained primarily flat from 2000 to 2001 with minor fluctuations due to average outstanding balances of cash and cash equivalents and interest rate fluctuations.

Asset impairment and obligations – investments

The Company, through its PtekVentures investment arm, made investments in various companies engaged in emerging technologies related to internet commerce. These investments were classified initially as either cost or equity investments in accordance with APB Opinion No. 18, “The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock,” and evaluated based upon activity. The Company continually evaluated the carrying value of its ownership interests in non-public investments in the PtekVentures portfolio for impairment that was “other than temporary” based on achievement of business plan objectives and current market conditions. The business plan objectives the Company considered include, among others, those related to financial performance such as achievement of planned financial results, forecasted operating cash flows and completion of capital raising activities, and those that are not primarily financial in nature such as the development of technology or the hiring of key employees. The Company has previously taken impairment charges on certain of these investments when it has determined that an “other than temporary” decline in the carrying value of the investment has occurred. Many Internet based businesses experienced difficulty in raising additional capital necessary to fund operating losses and make continued investments that their management teams believed necessary to sustain operations. Valuations of public companies operating in the Internet sector declined significantly during 2000 and 2001. During 2001, market conditions declined for the non-public companies in the PtekVentures portfolio, with certain of these companies filing for bankruptcy and subsequently being liquidated. The remaining portfolio companies’ financial performance and updated financial forecasts for the near term led management to the conclusion that there was an “other than temporary” decline in the carrying value of these companies. Accordingly, the Company decided to exit the venture business and cease future funding in its portfolio companies. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $29.2 million during the second quarter of 2001 for the remaining carrying value of its non-public company investment portfolio. During 2000, the Company made similar evaluations of the portfolio companies and recorded approximately $15.0 million in impairments.

Further, during the fourth quarter of 2001, one of the portfolio companies that was previously impaired defaulted on its credit facility and lease obligation. The Company had provided a standby letter of credit on this credit facility and is a guarantor of the lease obligation. Accordingly, an obligation expense for these guarantees in the entire amount of $2.5 million was recorded at December 31, 2001. During the first quarter of 2002, the Company paid its commitment on the standby letter of credit in the amount of $0.5 million. See “Legal Proceedings” under Item 3 of Part I of this report.

Additionally, during the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company sold a significant portion of its interest in PtekVentures for proceeds and a gain of $0.2 million, primarily in the form of two notes that accrue interest at 5.05% annually and are due in full on December 31, 2011. A third party appraisal was performed to value the portfolio companies owned by PtekVentures. The purchaser is primarily owned by two former executives of PtekVentures. The Company has received an income tax refund of approximately $9.2 million from the capital loss carryback associated with the sale of this interest.

Amortization of goodwill equity investments

During the first quarter of 2001 and the latter half of 2000, the Company amortized goodwill created by investments that were accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The amount by which the Company’s investment exceeds its share of the underlying net assets is considered to be goodwill, and is amortized over a three-year period. Amortization related to equity investments totaled $1.6 million and $4.9 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively, and is included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as “Amortization of goodwill-equity investments.” The decline in amortization in 2001 is the result of full impairments to these investments during the second quarter of 2001.

26

Discontinued operations

Consistent with the Company’s increased focus on extending its market leadership in conferencing and multimedia messaging services for global enterprise customers, the Company retained a financial advisor to assist in evaluating strategic alternatives for portions of its business during 2001. As a result of that evaluation, the Company decided to pursue the separation of Voicecom from the rest of PTEK and on March 26, 2002 the Company sold substantially all the assets of its Voicecom business unit to an affiliate of Gores Technology Group for a total purchase price of approximately $22.4 million, comprised of cash and the assumption of certain Voicecom liabilities. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the transaction was accounted for as a discontinued operation in the first quarter of 2002. The Voicecom discontinued operations included the loss from operations through the closing date and the loss on disposal. See Note 9 – “Acquisitions and Dispositions” to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company assessed the Voicecom liabilities that were retained at the time of the sale and determined, based upon the activity in these accounts and the passage of time, that certain of these liabilities were no longer required. Thus, in the fourth quarter of 2002 an adjustment was made to these estimates reducing the loss on discontinued operations of approximately $2.9 million, net of taxes.

Of the Voicecom liabilities, approximately $4.3 million represents capital leases guaranteed by the Company.

Effective income tax rate

In 2002, 2001 and 2000, the Company’s effective income tax rate varied from the statutory rate, primarily as a result of nondeductible goodwill amortization and asset impairments associated with the Company’s acquisitions that have been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and changes in calculating allowances and estimates. Changes in valuations allowances and estimates are required when facts and circumstances indicate that realization of tax benefits or the actual amount of taxes expected to be paid has changed. During the year ending December 31, 2002 the Company realized tax benefits of approximately $5.6 million of which approximately $1.0 million and $4.6 million were realized in the third and fourth quarters, respectively, due to changes in previous estimate. See Note 21—“Income Taxes” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

The deferred tax assets and liabilities contain a significant accrual for certain tax events in 2003. If future facts and circumstances indicate this accrual is unnecessary, the elimination of this accrual will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements in the future.

Liquidity and capital resources

As of December 31, 2002, the Company had $68.8 million of cash and cash equivalents compared to $48.0 million at December 31, 2001. Cash balances residing outside of the United States at December 31, 2002 were $10.3 million compared to $14.5 million at December 31, 2001. Net working capital at December 31, 2002 was $62.1 million compared to $13.1 million at December 31, 2001.

Cash provided by operating activities

Consolidated operating cash flows from continuing operations were $37.2 million, $29.0 million and $7.5 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Consolidated operating cash flows from continuing operations increased $8.2 million from 2001 to 2002 to $37.2 million. In 2002, net income from continuing operations, adjusted for the non-cash items of depreciation, amortization and asset impairment, and gain on sale of marketable securities, generated cash of $49.1 million. Other significant generators of operating cash were non-cash expenses paid with equity, consisting of employee compensation of $1.9 million and a legal settlement of $1.3 million. Other significant areas in which cash was generated (consumed) in the balance sheet were through the increase in accounts receivable of $(2.4) million, payment of accrued expenses of $(17.7) million, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $3.6 million and a decrease in deferred income taxes of $2.5 million. Consolidated operating cash flows from continuing operations increased $21.5 million from 2000 to 2001 to $29.0 million. In 2001, net income from continuing operations, adjusted for the non-cash items of depreciation, amortization and asset impairment, and gain on sale of marketable securities, generated cash of $30.7 million. Other significant generators of operating cash

27

were non-cash expenses consisting of employee compensation of $20.4 million and a legal settlement of $0.7 million. Other significant areas in which cash was generated (consumed) in 2001 in the balance sheet were through a decrease in accounts receivable of $6.4 million, an increase in accrued expenses of $0.6, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $2.9 million and an increase in deferred income taxes and taxes receivable of $(34.4) million. Consolidated operating cash flows from continuing operations 2000 were $7.5 million. In 2000 net income from continuing operations plus the non-cash items of depreciation, amortization, asset impairment and gain on sale of marketable securities generated cash of $24.4 million. Other significant generators of operating cash were the non cash expense of employee compensation of $2.1 million and positive net legal settlements of $10.5 million. Other significant areas in which cash was generated (consumed) in 2000 in the balance sheet were through an increase in accounts receivable of $(4.6) million, a decrease in accrued expenses and restructuring costs of $(20.3) million, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $4.5 million and an increase in deferred income taxes $(9.2) million.

Cash provided by (used in) investing activities

Consolidated investing activities from continuing operations (used) provided cash of approximately $(6.2) million, $(32.5) million and $3.6 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The decrease in cash used in investing activities from continuing operations of $26.3 million from 2001 to 2002 was the result of proceeds from sale of Voicecom of approximately $7.2 million and the decrease in capital expenditures of approximately $11.8 as part of the Company’s continued efforts to expend resources only on necessary expenditures or those with a high probability of economic benefit. The increase in cash used in investing activities of $(36.1) million from 2000 to 2001 is related to decreased proceeds from the sale of marketable securities of $(57.6) million, increased capital expenditures of $(2.8) million, reduced investments in PtekVentures’ portfolio companies of $30.0 million and increased acquisitions of business assets of $(3.3) million.

Cash provided by (used in) financing activities

Consolidated financing activities (used) or provided cash of approximately $(5.9) million, $1.7 million and $(0.6) million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The increase in cash used of $(7.5) million from 2001 to 2002 is primarily the result of additional treasury stock purchases of $(3.5) million in 2002, increased payments under borrowing arrangements of $(2.6) million from the term loans at Premiere Conferencing and the decrease in the proceeds from long term borrowings of $(2.5) million as a result of a new $4.0 million loan in 2002 for Premiere Conferencing compared to $6.5 million of borrowings in 2001. The Company’s financing activities increased $2.2 million from 2000 to 2001 primarily due to proceeds from borrowing arrangements of $6.5 million, a decrease in the issuance of notes receivables to shareholders of $2.0 million and a decrease in proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $(6.9) million. Principal payments under borrowing arrangements were primarily attributable to capital lease obligations at Xpedite and an equipment term loan at Premiere Conferencing. Proceeds from borrowing arrangements of $6.5 million are associated with an equipment term loan at Premiere Conferencing. The shareholder notes receivable issued during 2001 were for prior years’ taxes on Company stock option exercises by the CEO. In the second quarter of 2000, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program under which PTEK may purchase up to 10% of the then outstanding shares of its Common Stock, or approximately 4.8 million shares. During 2002, the Company repurchased approximately 1.8 million shares of its Common Stock under this program for approximately $6.6 million. During 2001, the Company repurchased approximately 1.1 million shares of its Common Stock under this program for approximately $3.1 million. In January 2003, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase in its 2000 stock repurchase program by authorizing the repurchase of up to an additional 10% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, or approximately 5.3 million additional shares of Common Stock.

Commitments and contingencies

At December 31, 2002, the Company’s had the following contractual obligations. The Company is primarily obligated under capital leases for networking equipment, operating leases for network facilities and operating segment headquarters, convertible subordinated notes due on July 1, 2004, semiannual interest payments on the convertible subordinated notes, a lease guaranty in association with its investment in Webforia, remaining cash payments on prior year acquisitions and telecommunications contractual minimum purchase agreements.

The Company purchases telecommunication and other network services from MCI under numerous transmission agreements. The Company currently has significant outstanding disputes with MCI regarding charges billed by MCI under these agreements. The Company has asserted that MCI and its affiliates owe credits exceeding $5.9 million to the Company as of December 31, 2002. MCI, in turn, has disputed a portion of those credits claimed by the Company. In accordance with SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies,” the Company believes it has appropriately accrued a reasonable estimate for this dispute. If the Company is unable to resolve its billing dispute with MCI or is required to pay MCI an amount greater than is accrued, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations could be materially impacted.

In addition, subsequent to December 31, 2002 Xpedite acquired substantially all of the assets related to the U.S. based e-mail and facsimile messaging business of Cable & Wireless USA, Inc. (“C&W”), and assumed certain liabilities, for a total purchase price of $11.0 million. The Company paid $6.0 million in cash at closing, and will pay $5.0 million in 16 equal quarterly installments commencing March 31, 2003.

Capital resources

In June 2002, the Company entered into a term equipment loan with Commercial Federal Bank. The loan proceeds of $4.0 million were used for equipment purchases associated with the Premiere Conferencing operating segment. The term of the loan is thirty-six months and the annual interest rate is 5.5%. The loan is collateralized by certain fixed assets of the Company. The loan agreement contains certain covenants that are usual and customary. At December 31, 2002, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the loan agreement. At December 31, 2002 amounts outstanding on this term loan were $3.5 million.

In September 2001, the Company entered into a term equipment loan with United Missouri Bank. The loan proceeds of $6.5 million were used for equipment purchases associated with the Premiere Conferencing operating segment. The term of the loan is thirty months and the annual interest rate is 6.0%. The loan is collateralized by certain fixed assets of the Company. The loan agreement contains certain covenants that are usual and customary. At December 31, 2002, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the loan agreement. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, amounts outstanding on this term loan were $3.6 million and $6.1 million, respectively.

In June 2001, the Company entered into a capital lease obligation for headquarter expansion at Xpedite for approximately $1.1 million. The term of the lease is thirty-six months with a yield of 12.75%. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, amounts outstanding on this lease were approximately $0.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

In September 2000, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Agreement”) for a one-year revolving credit facility with ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (the “Bank” or “Agent”). The Agreement provides for borrowings of up to $20.0 million, and is subject to certain covenants that are usual and customary for credit agreements of this nature. The commitment to provide revolving credit loans under the Agreement terminates 364 days from September 29, 2000, subject to extension. The Company extended the agreement at September 30, 2001 for 364 days. The agreement was amended to provide for borrowings up to $13.5 million and is subject to certain covenants that management believes are usual and customary for credit agreements of this nature. Amounts outstanding under the Agreement on the expiration date may, at the option of the Company, either be paid in full or converted to a one-year term loan payable in four equal quarterly installments. Proceeds drawn under the Agreement may be used for capital expenditures, working capital, acquisitions, investments, refinancing of existing indebtedness, and other general corporate purposes. The annual interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Agreement is, at the Company’s option, (i) the Agent’s Base Rate plus 1.25 percent or (ii) the Euro Rate (LIBOR) plus 3.50 percent. Amounts committed but not drawn under the Agreement are subject to a commitment fee equal to 0.50 percent per annum. The Company terminated the Agreement on March 26, 2002 in connection with the sale of its Voicecom business unit.

In July 1997, the Company issued convertible subordinated notes (“Convertible Notes”) of $172.5 million that mature on July 1, 2004 and bear interest at 5-3/4%. The Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the holder into common stock at a conversion price of $33 per share, through the date of maturity, subject to adjustment in certain events. Beginning in July 2000, the Convertible Notes were redeemable by the Company at a price equal to 103% of the conversion price, declining to 100% at maturity with accrued interest. The annual interest commitment associated with these notes is $9.9 million and is paid semiannually on July 1 and January 1 of each year.

Liquidity

As of December 31, 2002, the Company had $68.8 million of cash and cash equivalents, and $0.6 million of marketable securities available for sale. The Company generated positive operating cash flows from each of its operating segments for the year ended December 31, 2002. Each operating segment had sufficient cash flows from operations to fund capital expenditure requirements and to service existing debt obligations of the Company. Management believes that the Company will generate adequate operating cash flows for capital expenditure needs and contractual commitments for at least the next 12 months.

In July 1997, the Company issued convertible subordinated notes (“Convertible Notes”) of $172.5 million that mature on July 1, 2004 and bear interest at 5 ³/4%. The Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the holder into common stock at a conversion price of $33 per share, through the date of maturity, subject to adjustment in certain events. Beginning in July 2000, the Convertible Notes were redeemable by the Company at a price equal to 103% of the conversion price, declining to 100% at maturity with accrued interest. The outstanding balance of the Convertible Notes at December 31, 2002 was $ 172.5 million. The annual interest commitment associated with the remaining Convertible Notes is $9.9 million and is paid semi-annually on July 1 and January 1 of each year. In addition to the Convertible Notes, the Company had $7.7 million of other indebtedness outstanding on December 31, 2002.

We cannot assure that we will generate sufficient cash flow from operations to enable us to repay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. If we cannot generate sufficient cash flow from operations in the future, we may need to refinance or restructure all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. We will continue to evaluate the most efficient use of our capital, and will likely seek strategic alternatives for portions of our business or a refinancing arrangement to address the maturity of the convertible notes on July 1, 2004. Depending upon market conditions, these alternatives may include purchasing, refinancing or otherwise retiring a portion of the convertible notes in the open market. We cannot assure, however, that we will be able to timely refinance any of our indebtedness, including the convertible notes, on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Restricted Stock Exchange Offer

Due to declines in the Company’s share price over the course of the last several years, most of the employee and director option holders had options with exercise prices in excess of the market price of Company stock. In order to provide better performance incentives for employees and directors and to align the employees’ and directors’ interests with those of the shareholders, in the fourth quarter of 2001 the Company offered an

30

exchange program in which it granted one restricted share of common stock in exchange for every 2.5 options tendered. Approximately 6.0 million employee and director stock options were exchanged for approximately 2.4 million shares of restricted stock on December 28, 2001, the date of the exchange. The restricted shares maintain the same vesting schedules as those of the original options exchanged, except that in the case of tendered options that were vested on the exchange date, the restricted shares received in exchange therefore vested on the day after the exchange date. To the extent options were vested at the exchange date, the Company recognized equity based compensation expense determined by using the closing price of the Company’s common stock at December 28, 2001, which was $3.32 a share. To the extent that restricted shares were received for unvested options exchanged, this cost was deferred on the balance sheet under the caption “Unearned restricted share compensation.” This value was also determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the exchange. The unearned restricted share compensation will be recognized as equity based compensation expense as these shares vest. In 2002 approximately 402,000 shares vested and equity based compensation expense of $1.3 million was recognized. Assuming all employees at December 31, 2002 will remain employed by the Company through their vesting period, the equity based compensation expense in future years resulting from the restricted shares issued in the option exchange will be $0.4 million in 2003 and $0.2 million in 2004. See further discussion in “Restricted Stock Exchange Offer” section of Note 17—“Equity Based Compensation Plans.”

In accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 44, “Accounting For Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation—An Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25,” the Company recorded approximately $2.1 million as unearned compensation for the intrinsic value of the restricted stock on the effective date of the exchange offer, calculated using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on December 28, 2001. The unearned compensation will be amortized to “Equity based compensation” expense over the vesting period of the restricted stock, of which approximately $1.3 million vested in 2002.

In addition, approximately 890,000 options at December 31, 2001 that were eligible to be exchanged for restricted stock pursuant to the exchange offer were not tendered. At December 31, 2002 the option count was approximately 627,000 due to the sale of Voicecom and other cancellations of these options. These options will be subject to variable accounting until such options are exercised, are forfeited, or expire unexercised. These options have exercise prices ranging from $5.32 to $29.25. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, no charge was recorded because the exercise price of each of the options was greater than the market value of the Company’s common stock.

Related Party Transactions

The Company has in the past entered into agreements and arrangements with certain officers, directors and principal shareholders of the Company.

Notes receivable – shareholder

The Company has made loans to the CEO of the Company and a limited partnership in which he has an indirect interest. These loans were made pursuant to the CEO’s then current employment agreement for the exercise price of certain stock options and the taxes related thereto. Each of these loans is evidenced by a recourse promissory note bearing interest at the applicable Federal rate and secured by the common stock purchased. These loans mature between 2007 and 2010. These loans, including accrued interest, are recorded in the equity section of the balance sheet under the caption “Notes receivable, shareholder.” At December 31, 2002, the aggregate amount of these loans was $5.0 million.

Notes receivable – employees

During 2002, the Company loaned approximately $2.0 million with recourse to certain members of management to pay taxes in connection with the restricted shares issued in exchange for options in December 2001 and the discretionary restricted shares issued in November 2001. These loans are due in 2012, accrue interest at a weighted average rate of 5.5%, and are secured by the restricted shares granted. The total interest accrued on these loans as of December 31, 2002 was approximately $0.1 million. The Company is obligated to make additional loans to pay taxes associated with the future vesting of restricted shares, but the dollar amount of such loans cannot be determined at this time.

31

Use of airplane

During 2002, 2001 and 2000, the Company leased the use of an airplane from a limited liability company that is owned 99% by the Company’s CEO and 1% by the Company. In connection with this lease arrangement, the Company has incurred costs of $1.9 million, $2.2 million and $1.8 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, to pay the expenses of maintaining and operating the airplane.

Loans associated with restricted shares in former affiliates

During the second quarter of 1999, the Company awarded restricted share grants to the CEO, COO and certain other officers of Company-owned shares held in certain investments in affiliates. For a full discussion of these loans see “Loans and note forgiveness associated with restricted shares in former affiliates and related taxes” under “Equity Based Compensation Charges” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations above.

Strategic co-marketing arrangement

The Company had a strategic co-marketing arrangement with WebMD, a former affiliate. The terms of the agreement provided for WebMD to make an annual minimum commitment of $2.5 million for four years to purchase the Company’s products. The Company in turn was obligated to purchase portal rights from WebMD for $4.0 million over four years to assist in marketing its products. Under this agreement, which expired on February 17, 2003, the Company recognized revenue of approximately $2.5 million in each of 2002, 2001 and 2000. WebMD also subleased floor space in the Company’s headquarters for approximately $0.7 million in each of the two years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000.

Critical Accounting Policies

“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for uncollectible accounts, goodwill and other intangible assets, income taxes, investments, restructuring costs and legal contingencies.

Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

The Company has identified the policies below as critical to its business operations and the understanding of its results of operations. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenues when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenues consist of fixed monthly fees and usage fees generally based on per minute or transaction rates. Unbilled revenue consists of earned but unbilled revenue which results from the weekly billing cycle that was implemented at the Premiere Conferencing operating segment during the third quarter of 2002. Deferred revenue consists of payments made by customers in advance of the time services are rendered. The Company’s revenue recognition policies are consistent with the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,” as amended by SAB No. 101A and 101B.

Should changes in conditions cause management to determine these criteria are not met for certain future transactions, revenue recognized for any reporting period could be adversely affected.

Allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable. Prior to the recognition of revenue, the Company makes a decision that collectibility is reasonably assured. Over time, management analyzes accounts receivable balances,

32

historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends, and changes in the Company’s customer payment terms and trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable. Significant management judgment and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable in any accounting period. The accounts receivable balance was $51.9 million and $58.6 million, net of allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable of $7.1 million and $8.3 million, as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment to their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Goodwill and other intangible assets. Purchase accounting requires extensive use of accounting estimates and judgments to allocate the purchase price to the fair market value of the assets and liabilities purchased. The Company evaluates acquired businesses for potential impairment indicators whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors that management considers important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

• Significant decrease in the market value of an asset;

• Significant adverse change in physical condition or manner of use of an asset;

• Significant adverse change in legal factors or negative industry or economic trends;

• A current period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long lived asset;

• Significant decline in the Company’s stock price for a sustained period; and

• An expectation that, more likely than not, an asset will be sold or otherwise disposed of before the end of its previously estimated useful life.

In 2002, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” became effective and as a result, the Company ceased to amortize approximately $123.1 million of goodwill. The Company recorded approximately $67.4 million of goodwill amortization during 2001. In lieu of amortization, the Company is required to perform an initial impairment review of its goodwill in 2002 and an annual impairment review thereafter. A third party review was completed in the fourth quarter of 2002 and no impairment was identified. Other intangible assets with finite lives that do not meet the criteria of SFAS No. 142 continue to be amortized in accordance with the adoption of SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” This pronouncement became effective in 2002. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the fair value is less than the carrying value of such assets and the carrying value of these assets is not recoverable. The impairment loss, if applicable, is calculated based on the estimated future cash flows compared to the carrying value of the long-lived asset.

Prior to 2002, when the Company determined that the carrying value of long-lived assets, intangibles and related goodwill may not have been recoverable in accordance with the indicators of impairment, as stated in SFAS No. 121 “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of” the Company recognized an impairment loss when the sum of undiscounted expected future cash flow was less than the carrying value of such assets. The impairment loss, if applicable, was calculated based on the fair value or sum of the discounted cash flows compared to the carrying value. The discounted cash flow method uses a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in the Company’s business model.

See the “Asset impairments” section of “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” above for a discussion of impairments recorded during 2002 and 2001. Net intangible assets, long-lived assets and goodwill amounted to $130.9 million and $144.9 million as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Future events could cause the Company to conclude that the current estimates used should be changed and that goodwill associated with acquired businesses is impaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Income taxes. As part of the process of preparing the Company’s consolidated financial statements the Company is required to estimate its taxes in each of the jurisdictions of operation. This process involves management estimating the actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the consolidated balance sheets. The Company must then assess the likelihood

33

that the deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and to the extent we believe that recovery is not likely, the Company must establish a valuation allowance. To the extent the Company establishes a valuation allowance or increases this allowance in a period, an expense is recorded within the tax provision in the consolidated statement of operations.

Significant management judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, its deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. The net deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 was $22.4 million and $20.7 million, net of a valuation allowance of $5.2 million and $28.2 million, respectively. The Company has recorded the valuation allowance due to uncertainties related to its ability to utilize some of the deferred tax assets, primarily consisting of certain net operating losses carried forward and foreign tax credits, before they expire. The valuation allowance is based on the Company’s estimates of taxable income by jurisdiction in which it operates and the period over which the deferred tax assets will be recoverable.

In the event that actual results differ from these estimates or the Company adjusts these estimates in future periods, the Company may need to establish an additional valuation allowance that could materially impact the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

The Company also records a provision for certain international, federal and state tax contingencies based on the likelihood of obligation, when needed. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to challenges from U.S. and non-U.S. tax authorities regarding the amount of taxes due. These challenges may result in adjustments of the timing or amount of taxable income or deductions or the allocation of income among tax jurisdictions. Further, during the ordinary course of business other changing facts and circumstances may impact the Company’s ability to utilize tax benefits as well as the estimated taxes to be paid in future periods. Management believes it has appropriately accrued for tax exposures. If the Company is required to pay an amount less than or exceeding its provisions for uncertain tax matters, the financial impact will be reflected in the period in which the matter is resolved. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates, the Company may need to adjust tax accounts which could materially impact its financial condition and results of operations.

Investments. The Company has historically made investments in various companies that are engaged in emerging technologies related to the Internet. Either the cost or equity method is used to account for these investments in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 18, “The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock.” In addition, the Company has investments in equity securities of companies with readily determinable fair values accounted for in accordance with FASB SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” SFAS No. 115 mandates that a determination be made of the appropriate classification for equity securities with a readily determinable fair value and all debt securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluation of such designation as of each balance sheet date.

The Company records an investment impairment charge when it believes an investment has experienced a decline in value that is other than temporary. See the “Asset impairments and obligations – investments” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis” above for a discussion of investment impairments recorded during 2001 and 2000. Total investments, in the form of marketable securities available for sale, as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 were $0.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

Future adverse changes in market conditions could result in losses or an inability to recover the carrying value of the investments that may not be reflected in an investment’s current carrying value, thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge in the future.

Restructuring costs. The restructuring accruals are based on certain estimates and judgments related to contractual obligations and related costs. The restructuring accruals related to contractual lease obligations could be materially affected by factors such as the Company’s ability to secure sublessees, the creditworthiness of sublessees and the success at negotiating early termination agreements with lessors.

In the event that actual results differ from these estimates, the Company may need to establish additional restructuring accruals or reverse accrual amounts accordingly.

Legal contingencies. The Company is currently involved in certain legal proceedings as disclosed in Item 3, “Legal Proceedings,” of this report. Management has accrued an estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of these claims. This estimate has been developed in consultation with outside counsel handling these matters and is based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies.

34

The Company does not believe these proceedings will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations, although no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of any such proceedings.

The above listing is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of the Company’s estimates and judgments or accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by generally accepted accounting principles, with no need for management’s judgment in their application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result. These estimates are subject to change and the Company adjusts the financial impact in the period in which they are resolved. See the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto which contain accounting policies and other disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” This interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities that possess certain characteristics. The interpretation requires that if a business enterprise has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities, and results of the activities of the variable interest entity must be included in the consolidated financial statements with those of the business enterprise. This interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. We do not have any ownership in any variable interest entities as of December 31, 2002. We will apply the consolidation requirement of the interpretation in future periods if we should own any interest in any variable interest entity.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure” (“SFAS No. 148”), which amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”). SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock based employee compensation. SFAS No. 148 also requires that disclosures of the pro forma effect of using the fair value method of accounting for stock based employee compensation be displayed more prominently and in a tabular format. Additionally, SFAS No. 148 requires disclosure of the pro forma effect in interim financial statements. See “Equity Based Compensation Plans” section of Note 2— “Significant Accounting Policies” for the additional annual disclosures made to comply with SFAS No. 148. The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. As the Company does not intend to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 123, it does not expect the transition provisions of SFAS No. 148 to have a material effect on its results of operations or financial condition.

In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on issue 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” (“EITF 00-21”). EITF 00-21 addresses revenue recognition on arrangements encompassing multiple elements that are delivered at different points in tine, defining criteria that must be met for elements to be considered to be a separate unit of accounting. If an element is determined to be a separate unit of accounting, the revenue for the element is recognized at the time of delivery. EITF 00-21 is effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company does not expect that the pronouncements will have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 (“FIN 45”), Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and Rescission of FASB interpretation No. 34. The disclosure provisions of the interpretation are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods that end after December 15, 2002. However, the provisions for initial recognition and measurement are effective on a prospective basis for guarantees that are issued or modified after December 31, 2002, irrespective of a guarantor’s year-end.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (SFAS No. 146), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)” (EITF 94-3). The principal difference between SFAS No. 146 and EITF 94-3 relates to SFAS No. 146 requirements for recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity. SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF 94-3, a liability for an exit cost as generally defined in EITF 94-3 was recognized at the date of an entity’s commitment to an exit plan. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 146 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2003, and is currently evaluating this standard and the impact it will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements Nos. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections” (“SFAS No. 145”). Among other things, this statement rescinds SFAS No. 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt” (SFAS No. 4), which required all gains and losses from extinguishment of debt to be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect. As a result, the criteria in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations – Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a

36

Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions,” which requires gains and losses on extinguishments of debt to be classified as income or loss from continuing operations, will now be applied. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 145 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2003, and is currently evaluating this standard and the impact it will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long- Lived Assets” (“SFAS No. 144”). SFAS No. 144 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the impairment and disposition of long- lived assets, and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2002.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.” It addresses accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. This statement requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The liability is accreted to its present value each period while the cost is depreciated over its useful life. SFAS No. 143 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company adopted SFAS No. 143 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2002.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, “Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”). It requires that goodwill and certain intangible assets will no longer be subject to amortization, but instead will be subject to a periodic impairment assessment by applying a fair value based test. The Company’s required adoption date is January 1, 2002. Adoption of SFAS No. 142 will have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations due to the cessation of goodwill amortization on January 1, 2002. The balance of goodwill is $123.1 million as of December 31, 2002 and 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2002.

Subsequent Events

On January 16, 2003, Xpedite acquired substantially all of the assets related to the U.S. based e-mail and facsimile messaging business of Cable & Wireless USA, Inc. (“C&W”), and assumed certain liabilities, for a total purchase price of $11.4 million. The Company paid $6.0 million in cash at closing, $0.4 million in transaction and closing costs and will pay $5.0 million in 16 equal quarterly installments commencing with the quarter ended March 31, 2003. The Company followed SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” and approximately $1.1 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to acquire property, plant and equipment, and approximately $10.3 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to identifiable customer lists which are being amortized over a five-year useful life.

On February 27, 2003, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement and Note Purchase Agreement with AT&T Corp. (“AT&T”) pursuant to which the Company has agreed to purchase from AT&T, and AT&T has agreed to sell to the Company, 1,423,980 shares of the Class A Common Stock (the “Shares”) and a Promissory Note of EasyLink Services Corporation (NASDAQ: EASY) (“EasyLink”) in the stated principal amount of $10.0 million (the “Note”). The obligation of each party to consummate the transactions contemplated by each such purchase agreement is conditioned upon, among other things, the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to such party’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by the other purchase agreement.

The Note is secured by assets representing the substantial portion of EasyLink’s operations. Principal and accrued interest on the Note, aggregating over $12.0 million, is payable in 13 quarterly installments beginning June 1, 2003. The principal and accrued interest obligations bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum until paid. The shares to be purchased represent approximately 8.9% of the outstanding Class A common shares and 8.4% of the total outstanding common shares of EasyLink.

As consideration for the sale of the Shares and the Note, the Company has agreed to pay AT&T $4.0 million in cash and to issue to AT&T a warrant to acquire 250,000 shares of the Common Stock of the Company. The warrant will be exercisable at any time during the seven years following the date of issuance, at an exercise price to be determined on the basis of trading prices of the Company’s Common Stock during the ten trading days prior to the issuance of the warrant. The aggregate purchase price for the Shares, as set forth in the Share Purchase Agreement, is $825,908, or $0.58 per share, which amount equals the average of the high and low selling price of the Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market during the five trading days immediately preceding the

37

date of the Share Purchase Agreement. Despite the Share Purchase Agreement stating such separate purchase price for the Shares, the Company views its purchase of the Shares and the Note as a single transaction, for the total consideration set forth above. The cash consideration for the purchase of the Shares and the Note will be paid out of the working capital of PTEK.

On March 3, 2003, EasyLink demanded that the Company and AT&T terminate their agreements for the purchase and sale of the Note and the Shares. In connection with such demand, EasyLink has asserted that AT&T and PTEK may have violated commitments of AT&T and the Company to EasyLink and that the Company has engaged in certain improper activities with respect to EasyLink and in connection with the transaction. The Company considers these allegations to be groundless and has denied each of them. PTEK expects to consummate the purchase of the Note and Shares, subject to the conditions set forth in the respective purchase agreements.

On March 25, 2003, EasyLink filed a lawsuit against the Company, Xpedite and AT&T. See Item 3— “Legal Proceedings” for a detailed discussion of this litigation.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

When used in this Form 10-K/A and elsewhere by management or PTEK from time to time, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “will” “may,” “should,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements concerning our operations, economic performance and financial condition. These include, but are not limited to, forward-looking statements about our business strategy and means to implement the strategy, our objectives, the amount of future capital expenditures, the likelihood of our success in developing and introducing new products and services and expanding our business, and the timing of the introduction of new and modified products and services. For those statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on a number of assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to significant risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and reflect future business decisions which are subject to change. A variety of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in PTEK’s forward-looking statements, including the following factors, which are updated through the date of filing of this Form 10-K/A:

• Our ability to respond to rapid technological change, the development of alternatives to our products and services and the risk of obsolescence of our products, services and technology;

• Market acceptance of new products and services;

• Our ability to manage our growth;

• Costs or difficulties related to the integration of businesses and technologies, if any, acquired or that may be acquired by us may be greater than expected;

• Expected cost savings from past or future mergers and acquisitions may not be fully realized or realized within the expected time frame;

• Revenues following past or future mergers and acquisitions may be lower than expected;

• Operating costs or customer loss and business disruption following past or future mergers and acquisitions may be greater than expected;

• The success of our strategic relationships, including the amount of business generated and the viability of the strategic partners, may not meet expectations;

• Possible adverse results of pending or future litigation or adverse results of current or future infringements claims;

• Our ability to service or repay all or a portion of our convertible notes issued to the public, a portion of which mature on July 1, 2004 and the remainder of which mature on August 15, 2008;

• The failure of the purchaser to pay the liabilities assumed in, or incurred after, the sale of the Voicecom business unit;

• Our services may be interrupted due to failure of the platforms and network infrastructure utilized in providing our services;

• Our services may be interrupted and our costs may increase due to the filing by MCI and Global Crossing for protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code and MCI’s notice of rejection of some (if not all) of our telecommunication service agreements;

• Competitive pressures among communications services providers, including pricing pressures, may increase significantly, particularly after the emergence of MCI and Global Crossing from protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code;

• Domestic and international terrorist activity, war and political instability may adversely affect the level of services utilized by our customers and the ability of those customers to pay for services utilized;

39

• Risks associated with expansion of our international operations;

• General economic or business conditions, internationally, nationally or in the local jurisdiction in which we are doing business, may be less favorable than expected;

• Legislative or regulatory changes, such as the recent Federal Communications Commission’s revisions to the rules interpreting the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991, may adversely affect the businesses in which we are engaged;

• Changes in the securities markets may negatively impact us;

• Increased leverage in the future may harm our financial condition and results of operations;

• Our dependence on our subsidiaries for cash flow may negatively affect our business and our ability to pay amounts due under our indebtedness;

• Our Risk Factors filed as Exhibit 99.1 to our current Report on Form 8-K dated December 19, 2003; and

• Factors described from time to time in our press releases, reports and other filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

PTEK cautions that these factors are not exclusive. Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-K/A and in other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission are qualified by these cautionary statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 10-K/A. PTEK takes on no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-K/A, or the date of the statement, if a different date.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company manages its exposure to these market risks through its regular operating and financing activities. Derivative instruments are not currently used and, if utilized, are employed as risk management tools and not for trading purposes.

At December 31, 2002, no derivative financial instruments were outstanding to hedge interest rate risk. A hypothetical immediate 10% increase in interest rates would decrease the fair value of the Company’s fixed rate convertible subordinated notes outstanding at December 31, 2002 and 2001, by $17.7 million and $22.2 million, respectively.

Approximately 33.0% and 32.7% of the Company’s sales from continuing operations and 33.2% and 19.2% of its operating costs and expenses from continuing operations were transacted in foreign currencies in 2002 and 2001, respectively. As a result, fluctuations in exchange rates impact the amount of the Company’s reported sales and operating income. A hypothetical positive or negative change of 10% in foreign currency exchange rates would positively or negatively change revenue for 2002 and 2001 by approximately $11.2 million and $10.8 million and operating expenses for 2002 and 2001 by approximately $10.5 million and $9.8 million, respectively. Historically, the Company’s principal exposure has been related to local currency sales, operating costs and expenses in Europe and Asia (principally the United Kingdom, Germany and Japan). The Company has not used derivatives to manage foreign currency exchange risk and no foreign currency exchange derivatives were outstanding at December 31, 2002.

Report of Independent Accountants

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of PTEK Holdings, Inc.:

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of PTEK Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 142 on January 1, 2002.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. THE COMPANY AND ITS BUSINESS

PTEK Holdings, Inc., a Georgia corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company” or “PTEK”), is a global provider of business communications services, including conferencing (audio conferencing and Web-based collaboration) and multimedia messaging (high-volume actionable communications, including e-mail, wireless messaging, voice message delivery and fax). The Company’s reportable segments align the Company into two decentralized operating segments based on product offering. These segments are Premiere Conferencing and Xpedite. Through a series of acquisitions from April 1998 through September 1999, PTEK assembled a suite of communications and data services, an international private data network and points-of-presence in regions covering North America, Asia/Pacific and Europe. In addition, the Company had one other reportable segment, Voicecom, which the Company exited through a sale of substantially all its assets, effective March 26, 2002. Voicecom offered a suite of integrated communications solutions, including voice messaging, interactive voice response services and unified communications.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting Estimates

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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Financial statement line items that include significant estimates consist of goodwill, net; intangibles, net; restructuring costs; tax accounts and the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable. Changes in the facts or circumstances underlying these estimates could result in material changes and actual results could differ from those estimates. These changes in estimates are recognized in the period they are realized.

Principles of Consolidation

The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and highly liquid investments with a maturity at date of purchase of three months or less.

Marketable Securities, Available for Sale

The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” SFAS No. 115 mandates that a determination be made of the appropriate classification for equity securities with a readily determinable fair value and all debt securities at the time of purchase and a re-evaluation of such designation as of each balance sheet date. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, investments consisted primarily of common stock. Management considers all such investments as “available for sale.” Common stock investments are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related income tax effect are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized. Realized gains and losses are included in earnings and are derived using the specific identification method for determining the cost of the securities sold.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Investments

The Company has made investments in various companies that were engaged in emerging technologies related to the Internet through its investment arm, PtekVentures. During 2001, market conditions declined for the non-public companies in the PtekVentures portfolio, with certain of these companies filing for bankruptcy and subsequently being liquidated. Accordingly, the Company decided to exit the venture business and cease future funding in its portfolio companies. Either the cost or equity method was used to account for these investments in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 18, “The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock.” Based on the Company’s ownership interest, the consolidation method was not used for any investments.

Cost Method

The cost method of accounting was used for any investment in which the Company owned less than 20% and did not exercise significant influence. Significant influence is generally determined by, but not limited to, representation on the affiliate’s Board of Directors, voting rights associated with the Company’s holdings in common, preferred and other convertible instruments in the affiliate, and any legal obligations. As there was no quoted market price for these investments and the Company owned less than 20%, the investment was carried at cost unless circumstances suggest that an impairment should have been recognized.

Equity Method

Affiliated companies in which the Company owned 50% or less of the equity ownership, but over which significant influence was exercised, were accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The amount by which the Company’s investment exceeded its share of the underlying net assets was considered to be goodwill, and was amortized over a three-year period.

Accounts Receivable

Included in accounts receivable at December 31, 2002 was earned but unbilled revenue of approximately $1.9 million at Premiere Conferencing, which results from weekly cycle billing that was implemented during the third quarter of 2002. Earned but unbilled revenue is billed within thirty days. Bad debt expense was approximately $5.1 million, $6.1 million and $1.3 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided under the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, commencing when the assets are placed in service. The estimated useful lives are five to seven years for furniture and fixtures, two to five years for software and three to ten years for computer and telecommunications equipment. The cost of installed equipment includes expenditures for installation. Assets recorded under capital leases and leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of their useful lives or the term of the related lease.

Research and Development

The Company incurs research and development costs primarily related to developing enhancements and new service features and are expensed as incurred.

Software Development Costs

Pursuant to the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (“SOP”) 98-1, “Accounting for the Costs of Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use,” costs incurred to develop significant enhancements to software features to be sold as part of services offerings at Xpedite and costs incurred to implement a new billing system at Premiere Conferencing are being capitalized. For the twelve months ended

48

PTEK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2002 the Company capitalized approximately $2.9 million related to these projects. There were no costs capitalized for the comparable periods in 2001. These capitalized costs are being amortized on a straight line basis over the estimated life of the related software, not to exceed three years. Amortization expense recorded for phases completed for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002 was approximately $0.3 million.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of businesses acquired over fair value of net identifiable assets at the date of acquisition and has historically been amortized using the straight-line method over various lives up to 7 years. With the adoption of SFAS No. 142, “Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” which became effective January 1, 2002, the Company no longer records amortization expense associated with goodwill, but instead goodwill is subject to a periodic impairment assessment by applying a fair value based test based upon a two-step method. The first step is to identify potential goodwill impairment by comparing the estimated fair value of the reporting units to their carrying amounts. The second step measures the amount of the impairment based upon a comparison of “implied fair value” of goodwill with its carrying amount. This analysis was completed for the year ended December 31, 2002 and no impairment was identified.

The Company amortized the goodwill of its non-public equity investments in its PtekVentures’ portfolio over a three-year useful life until the second quarter of 2001, at which time the Company wrote off the remaining carrying value of such investments. The amortization is included in “Amortization of goodwill equity investments” and the write off is included in “Asset impairment and obligation investments” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. See Note 6—“Investments.”

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

Management evaluates the carrying values of long-lived assets when significant adverse changes in the economic value of these assets requires an analysis, including property and equipment and other intangible assets. Effective in January 2002, with the adoption of SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” (“FAS No. 144”) a long lived asset is considered impaired when its fair value is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is calculated based on the amount the carrying value exceeds the future cash flows, as calculated under the best-estimate approach, of such asset. Prior to adopting FAS No. 144, a long-lived asset was considered impaired when undiscounted cash flows or fair value, whichever was more readily determinable, to be realized from such asset was less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss was determined based on the amount the carrying value exceeded the discounted cash flows or fair value of such asset. Management believes that long-lived assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are appropriately valued. See Note 12—“Asset Impairments.”

Equity Based Compensation Plans

The Company accounts for stock based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for awards (other than restricted share awards) issued under the Company’s stock based compensation plans where the exercise price of such award is equal to the market price of the underlying common stock at the date of grant. The Company provides the additional disclosures required under SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”), as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure.”

PTEK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company has adopted the disclosure only provision of SFAS No. 123. Had compensation expense for the Company’s stock option grants described above been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards in 2002, 2001 and 2000, consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net loss and loss per share would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below for the years ended December 31 (in thousands, except per share data):

	2002			2001			2000
Net income (loss):
As reported	$	1,891		$	(242,120	)	$	(58,866	)

As reported	$	0.26		$	(4.84	)	$	(1.22	)
Pro forma	$	(0.05	)	$	(5.07	)	$	(1.60	)

Significant assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model computations are as follows:

	2002	2001	2000
Risk-free interest rate	3.95%	4.18%	5.13-5.61%
Dividend yield	0%	0%	0%
Volatility factor	76%	90%	99%
Weighted average expected life	3.95 years	3.79 years	3.75 years

The pro forma amounts reflect options granted since January 1, 1996. Pro forma compensation cost may not be representative of that expected in future years.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenues consist of fixed monthly fees and usage fees generally based on per minute or transaction rates. Unbilled revenue consists of earned but unbilled revenue which results from the weekly billing cycle that was implemented at the Premiere Conferencing operating segment during the third quarter of 2002. Deferred revenue consists of payments made by customers in advance of the time services are rendered. The Company’s revenue recognition policies are consistent with the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,” as amended by SAB 101A and 101B.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes and corresponding balance sheet accounts are determined in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“FAS 109”). Under FAS 109, the deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on temporary differences between the basis of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes, in addition to net operating loss carryforwards which are reasonably assured of being utilized. These differences are primarily attributable to differences in the recognition of depreciation and amortization of property, equipment and intangible assets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or realized. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company also records a provision for certain international, federal and state tax contingencies based on the likelihood of obligation, when needed. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to challenges from U.S. and non-U.S. tax authorities regarding the amount of taxes due. These challenges may result in adjustments of the timing or amount of taxable income or deductions or the allocation of income among tax jurisdictions. Further, during the ordinary course of business other changing facts and circumstances may impact the Company’s ability to utilize tax benefits as well as the estimated taxes to be paid in future periods. Management believes it has appropriately accrued for tax exposures. If the Company is required to pay an amount less than or exceeding its provisions for uncertain tax matters, the financial impact will be reflected in the period in which the matter is resolved. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates, the Company may need to adjust tax accounts which could materially impact its financial condition and results of operations.

Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding does not include any potentially dilutive securities or any unvested restricted shares of common stock. These unvested restricted shares, although classified as issued and outstanding at December 31, 2002 and 2001, are considered contingently returnable until the restrictions lapse and are not included in the basic net income (loss) per share calculation until the shares are vested. Diluted net income (loss) per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive securities. The Company’s convertible subordinated notes, unvested restricted shares and stock options are all potentially dilutive securities during 2002. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2002, the difference between basic and diluted weighted-average shares outstanding was the dilutive effect of stock options and the unvested restricted shares, computed as follows:

	December 31, 2002
Total weighted-average shares outstanding – Basic	53,550,029
Add common stock equivalents:
Stock options	1,633,347
Unvested restricted shares	1,078,909
Total weighted-average shares outstanding – Diluted	56,262,285

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2001, the Company’s convertible subordinated notes and stock options were potentially dilutive securities, but these securities were antidilutive due to the Company’s net loss and, therefore, are not included in the diluted per share calculation. Such potentially dilutive securities as of December 31, 2001 were 5.2 million, 1.2 million and 10.3 million shares related to convertible subordinated notes, unvested restricted shares and stock options outstanding, respectively.

Foreign Currency Translation

The assets and liabilities of subsidiaries domiciled outside the United States are translated at rates of exchange existing at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded in the “Cumulative translation adjustment” component of shareholders’ equity.

Treasury Stock

Treasury stock transactions are recorded at cost.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) represents the change in equity of a business during a period, except for investments by owners and distributions to owners. Cumulative translation adjustments and unrealized gains on available-for-sale marketable securities represent the Company’s components of other comprehensive income (loss) at December 31, 2002 and 2001. For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, total comprehensive income (loss) was approximately $4.4 million, $(243.1) million and $(114.2) million, respectively.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” This interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities that possess certain characteristics. The interpretation requires that if a business enterprise has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities, and results of the activities of the variable interest entity must be included in the consolidated financial statements with those of the business enterprise. This interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. We do not have any ownership in any variable interest entities as of December 31, 2002. We will apply the consolidation requirement of the interpretation in future periods if we should own any interest in any variable interest entity.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure” (“SFAS No. 148”) which amends SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock based employee compensation. SFAS No. 148 also requires that disclosures of the pro forma effect of using the fair value method of accounting for stock based employee compensation be displayed more prominently and in a tabular format. Additionally, SFAS No. 148 requires disclosure of the pro forma effect in interim financial statements. See “Equity Based Compensation Plans” section of Note 2—“Significant Accounting Policies” for the additional annual disclosures made to comply with SFAS No. 148. The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. As the Company does not intend to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 123, it does not expect the transition provisions of SFAS No. 148 to have a material effect on its results of operations or financial condition.

In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on issue 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” (“EITF 00-21”). EITF 00-21 addresses revenue recognition on arrangements encompassing multiple elements that are delivered at different points in tine, defining criteria that must be met for elements to be considered to be a separate unit of accounting. If an element is determined to be a separate unit of accounting, the revenue for the element is recognized at the time of delivery. EITF 00-21 is effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company does not expect that this pronouncement will have a material impact on results of operations or financial condition.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 (“FIN 45”), Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and Rescission of FASB interpretation No. 34. The disclosure provisions of the interpretation are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods that end after December 15, 2002. However, the provisions for initial recognition and measurement are effective on a prospective basis for guarantees that are issued or modified after December 31, 2002, irrespective of a guarantor’s year-end. See Note 9—“Discounted Operations.”

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (SFAS No. 146), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)” (EITF 94-3). The principal difference between SFAS No. 146 and EITF 94-3 relates to SFAS No. 146 requirements for recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity. SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF 94-3, a liability for an exit cost as generally defined in EITF 94-3 was recognized at the date of an entity’s commitment to an exit plan. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 146 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2003, and is currently evaluating this standard and the impact it will have on the consolidated financial statements.

PTEK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements Nos. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections” (“SFAS No. 145”). Among other things, this statement rescinds SFAS No. 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt” (SFAS No. 4), which required all gains and losses from extinguishment of debt to be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect. As a result, the criteria in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations – Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions,” which requires gains and losses on extinguishments of debt to be classified as income or loss from continuing operations, will now be applied. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 145 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2003, and is currently evaluating this standard and the impact it will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long- Lived Assets” (“SFAS No. 144”). SFAS No. 144 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the impairment and disposition of long- lived assets, and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2002.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” (“SFAS No. 142”). It addresses accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. This statement requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The liability is accreted to its present value each period while the cost is depreciated over its useful life. SFAS No. 143 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company adopted SFAS No. 143 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2002.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, “Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” It requires that goodwill and certain intangible assets will no longer be subject to amortization, but instead will be subject to a periodic impairment assessment by applying a fair value based test. The Company’s required adoption date is January 1, 2002. Adoption of SFAS No. 142 will have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations due to the cessation of goodwill amortization on January 1, 2002. The balance of goodwill is $123.1 million as of December 31, 2002 and 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2002.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts in the Company’s consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2002 presentation.

On January 1, 2001, management responsibility for international conferencing services was transferred from Xpedite to Premiere Conferencing. Prior to that date, these international revenues were reported in the Xpedite operating segment. The revenues of the Australian operations of Voicecom that were retained in conjunction with the sale of this operating segment are reported in the international results of Xpedite effective January 1, 2002. In order to report comparable operating segment financial results, certain financial information for years prior to 2001 has been reclassified. Overall these reclassifications did not have a material impact on the financial results of the operating segments for the periods presented.

3. EXCLUSION OF SFAS NO. 142 AMORTIZATION

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142 which requires that goodwill and certain intangible assets no longer be subject to amortization, but instead be subject to a periodic impairment by applying a fair value based test based upon a two-step method. The balance of goodwill was $123.1 million as of December 31, 2002 and 2001. During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company determined there was no impairment of these assets as of December 31, 2002. Exclusive of SFAS No. 142 amortization, basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 would have been (in thousands, except per share data):

Realignment of Workforce – Fourth Quarter 2002

In the fourth quarter of 2002, Xpedite and the Holding Company terminated employees pursuant to a plan to shrink headcount and reduce sales and administration costs. The plan called for the reduction of 54 and 5 employees at Xpedite and the Holding Company, respectively. The combined costs associated with the restructuring plan are $1.5 million, of which $0.3 million was paid in 2002. Of the remaining balance, $0.8 million, $0.3 million and $0.1 million will be paid in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Virtually all costs will be paid in cash. Also, in the fourth quarter of 2002 Xpedite decided to exit the voice messaging business in Australia due to declining revenue and the need to make substantial capital investments. The costs associated with exiting this business of $0.3 million are primarily non-cash and represent the loss on disposal of the voice messaging assets.

Realignment of Workforce and Facilities – Fourth Quarter 2001

Due to continued revenue declines not anticipated by management in both the Voicecom and Xpedite operating segments in the second half of 2001, plans for additional workforce cost reductions were established and personnel were notified during the fourth quarter of 2001. The plan eliminated, through involuntary separation, approximately 120 non-sales force employees in both Voicecom and Xpedite and eliminated 143 network equipment sites in the Voicecom operating segment. The overall management plan allowed for reinvesting these cost savings into additional sales force employees in order to stabilize the decline in revenues in both operation segments. Accordingly, the Company accrued restructuring costs of approximately $4.1 million associated with this plan commitment. Cash payments in 2002 and 2001 associated with this plan were $2.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The Company expects to incur $0.4 million of additional cash payments in 2003 to satisfy this plan obligation. Of the $4.1 million of costs associated with this plan, approximately $0.7 million of non-cash charges were incurred for severance cost obligations paid through immediately vested stock options issued below market price on the date of grant. Accordingly, this portion of the restructuring costs was recorded as additional paid-in-capital. The remaining costs at December 31, 2002 and 2001 were $0.4 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

Realignment of Workforce and Facilities – Second Quarter 2001

During the second quarter of 2001, management committed to a plan to reduce annual operating expenses through the elimination of certain operating activities in its Voicecom and Xpedite operating segments, and at the Holding Company, and the corresponding reductions in personnel costs relating to the Company’s operations, sales and administration. The plan eliminated, through involuntary separation, approximately 168 non-sales force employees and allowed the Company to exit duplicative facilities in the Voicecom business segment. Accordingly, the Company accrued restructuring costs of approximately $6.7 million associated with this plan commitment. The Company expects to incur a total of approximately $5.0 million of cash payments related to severance, exit costs and contractual obligations associated with the $6.7 million plan costs. Approximately $0.8 million and $3.8 million of these cash payments were made by December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and were primarily related to severance and exit cost activities. The remaining cash payments are associated with severance costs, exit costs and contractual obligations are expected to be paid in 2003. Approximately $1.7 million of non-cash charges recorded in 2001 are related to certain executive management severance costs from employee stock option modifications and forgiveness of employee notes receivables. Accordingly, this portion of the restructuring costs was recorded as additional paid-in-capital. The remaining costs at December 31, 2002 and 2001 were approximately $40,000 and $1.2 million, respectively.

Exit from Asia Real-Time Fax and Telex Business

During the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company recorded a charge of $0.6 million for costs associated with Xpedite’s decision to exit its legacy real-time fax and telex business in Asia. This service depended on significant price disparities between regulated incumbent telecommunications carriers and Xpedite’s cost of delivery over its fixed-cost network. With the deregulation of most Asian telecommunications markets, Xpedite’s cost advantage dissipated, and the Company decided to exit this service and concentrate on higher value-added services such as transactional messaging and messageREACH. The $0.6 million charge included contractual and other obligations totaling $0.4 million and severance costs of $0.2 million. During 2001, the Company paid the remaining severance obligations planned for and does not expect any further payments.

Decentralization of Company

In the third quarter of 1999, the Company recorded restructuring, merger costs and other special charges of approximately $8.2 million in connection with its reorganization from the two EES (Emerging Enterprise Solutions) and CES (Corporate Enterprise Solutions) operating units into three operating business units, a retail calling card business, and a holding company. The $8.2 million charge was comprised of $7.3 million of severance and exit costs, $0.7 million of lease termination costs and $0.2 million of facility exit costs. The decentralization plan of the Company was completed and all payments were made during 2000.

Reorganization of Company into EES and CES Business Groups

In the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company recorded a charge of $11.4 million to reorganize the Company into two business segments that focused on specific groups of customers. The balance of severance and exit costs at December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 of $0.0 million, $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, represents remaining severance reserve for a former executive manager. Cash severance payments in 2002 and 2001were $0.1 million and $0.5 million. The Company paid the remaining severance obligations during 2002 and does not expect any future payments.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company continually evaluated the carrying value of its ownership interests in non-public investments in the PtekVentures portfolio for possible impairment that was “other than temporary” based on achievement of business plan objectives and current market conditions. The business plan objectives the Company considered include, among others, those related to financial performance such as achievement of planned financial results, forecasted operating cash flows and completion of capital raising activities and those that are not primarily financial in nature such as the development of technology or the hiring of key employees. The Company has previously taken impairment charges on certain of these investments when it has determined that an “other than temporary” decline in the carrying value of the investment has occurred. Many Internet based businesses experienced difficulty in raising additional capital necessary to fund operating losses and make continued investments that their management teams believed were necessary to sustain operations. Valuations of public companies operating in the Internet sector declined significantly during 2000 and 2001. During 2001, market conditions declined for the non-public companies in the PtekVentures portfolio, with certain of these companies filing for bankruptcy and subsequently being liquidated. The remaining portfolio companies’ financial performance and updated financial forecasts for the near term led management to the conclusion that there was an “other than temporary” decline in the carrying value of these companies. Accordingly, the Company decided to exit the venture business and cease future funding in its portfolio companies. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $29.2 million during the second quarter of 2001 for the remaining carrying value of its non-public company investment portfolio. During 2000, the Company made similar evaluations of the portfolio companies and recorded approximately $15.0 million in impairments.

During the first quarter of 2001 and the latter half of 2000, the Company amortized goodwill created by investments that were accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The amount by which the Company’s investment exceeds its share of the underlying net assets is considered to be goodwill, and is amortized over a three-year period. Amortization related to equity investments totaled $1.6 million and $4.9 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively, and is included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as “Amortization of goodwill-equity investments.” The decline in amortization in 2001 is the result of full impairments to these investments during the second quarter of 2001.

Further, during the fourth quarter of 2001, one of the portfolio companies that was previously impaired defaulted on its credit facility and lease obligation. The Company had provided a standby letter of credit on this credit facility and is a guarantor of the lease obligation. Accordingly, an obligation expense for these guarantees in the entire amount of $2.5 million was recorded at December 31, 2001. During the first quarter of 2002, the Company paid its commitment on the standby letter of credit in the amount of $0.5 million. See Note 20, “Commitments and Contingencies.”

Additionally, during the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company sold a significant portion of its interest in PtekVentures for proceeds and a gain of $0.2 million, primarily in the form of two notes that accrue interest at 5.05% annually and are due in full on December 31, 2011. A third party appraisal was performed to value the portfolio companies owned by PtekVentures. The purchaser is primarily owned by two former executives of PtekVentures. The Company has received an income tax refund of approximately $9.2 million from the capital loss carryback associated with the sale of this interest.

7. SALE OF RETAIL CALLING CARD REVENUE BASE

Effective August 1, 2000, the Company sold its Retail Calling Card operating segment’s revenue base to Telecare, Inc. (“Telecare”). The sale was valued at approximately $6.5 million and was financed by the Company in the form of two promissory notes with recourse to Telecare. The Company had extended the due date of the notes during the second half of 2001 until Telecare could obtain third party financing.

Effective August 1, 2000, the Company entered into a management services agreement with Telecare. This agreement was undertaken to ensure an effective transition of the revenue base by both the Company and Telecare. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company continued to provide telecommunications transport services, operational support and administrative support for the revenue base. The telecommunications transport services are

provided on a wholesale basis similar to other customers in the Voicecom operating segment. Accordingly, the Company recognized these services as revenue in the Voicecom operating segment. The Company maintained the management services agreement with Telecare throughout 2001 while Telecare sought financing to pay its obligations to the Company.

During the first quarter of 2002, Telecare sought protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had written off the uncollectible note receivable of $6.5 million and eliminated the deferred gain of $6.5 million associated with the original sale.

8. STRATEGIC ALLIANCE CONTRACT

In November 1996, the Company entered into a strategic alliance agreement with MCI, the second largest long-distance carrier in the United States. Under the agreement, MCI was required, among other things, to provide the Company with the right of first opportunity to provide enhanced computer telephone products for a period of at least 25 years. In connection with this agreement, the Company issued to MCI 2,050,000 shares of common stock valued at approximately $25.2 million (based on the average closing price of the Company’s shares for the five days through the effective date of the transaction, adjusted in consideration of the restrictions placed upon the shares), and paid MCI approximately $4.7 million in cash.

In the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $13.9 million to write-down the value of its strategic alliance intangible asset with MCI. This charge was required based upon management’s evaluation of revenue levels expected from this alliance. The Company reevaluated the carrying value and remaining life of the MCI strategic alliance in light of the expiration of certain minimum revenue requirements under the strategic alliance agreement and the level of revenues expected to be achieved from the alliance following the merger of WorldCom and MCI in the third quarter of 1998. Accordingly, The Company recorded a write-down in the carrying value of this investment based on estimated future cash flows discounted at a rate of 12%. In addition, the Company accelerated amortization of this asset effective in the fourth quarter of 1998 by shortening its estimated useful life to 3 years as compared with a remaining life of 23 years prior to the write-down.

In the second quarter of 2000, the Company expensed the remaining balance of the strategic alliance intangible asset as a result of the Company’s favorable settlement of a contractual dispute with MCI. As part of the settlement, the Company received $12.0 million in cash for terminating the strategic alliance contract with MCI. Accordingly, the Company expensed the net book value of this contract of approximately $6.9 million against the settlement proceeds of $12.0 million. In addition, the Company expensed approximately $1.3 million in legal costs associated with this settlement.

9. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

Discontinued Operations

On March 26, 2002, the Company sold substantially all the assets of the Voicecom operating segment, exclusive of its Australian operations, to an affiliate of Gores Technology Group, for a total purchase price of approximately $22.4 million, comprised of cash and the assumption of certain liabilities.

During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company assessed the Voicecom liabilities that were retained at the time of the sale and determined, based upon the activity in these accounts and the passage of time, that certain of these liabilities were no longer required. Thus, in the fourth quarter of 2002 an adjustment was made to these estimates reducing the loss on discontinued operations of approximately $2.9 million, net of taxes.

Of the Voicecom liabilities, approximately $4.3 million represents capital leases guaranteed by the Company.

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long Lived Assets.” During the fourth quarter of 2002 the Company assessed the carrying value of the customer lists at Xpedite pursuant to SFAS No. 144, as Xpedite experienced a decline in revenue in certain international markets during the later half of 2002. Using the best-estimate approach, the fair value of certain customer lists associated with the markets experiencing the declines were determined to be less than the carrying value at December 31, 2002, resulting in a $3.2 million asset impairment.

During the second half of 2001, the Company experienced declines in revenue at its Xpedite operating segment. During the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company assessed the outlook of various service offering revenues and evaluated the potential impairment of various assets associated with the operating equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets of Xpedite pursuant to SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.” Management reviewed the identifiable undiscounted future cash flows, including the estimated residual value to be generated by the assets to be held and used by the business acquired in Xpedite at their asset grouping level. Based on the results of these assessments, the Company recorded the $100.8 million impairment in the fourth quarter of 2001 from continuing operations ($99.0 million of which was related to Xpedite, as discussed further below).

Xpedite impairment - 2001

In Xpedite, a decline in the legacy store and forward fax revenues and weakness in the European and Asia Pacific regions of the business began to occur in the latter part of the third quarter and the early part of the fourth quarter of 2001. Accordingly, management was concerned that a fair value assessment would potentially be lower than the carrying value on the balance sheet. A third party appraisal was performed using a discounted cash flow income approach to valuing the business using a 15% discount rate. The valuation resulted in an asset impairment related to the Xpedite operating segment of $99.0 million to reflect the carrying value in excess of fair value at December 31, 2001. Of the $99.0 million, property and equipment impairments of $0.7 million at Xpedite related primarily to the abandonment of its Indonesian operations due to declining revenues and profits. Indonesia represented less than 1% of Xpedite’s revenues.

Other impairments - 2001

Additionally, management recorded asset impairments totaling $1.8 million related to the carrying value of capitalized software associated with certain internal information systems at both Premiere Conferencing and the Holding Company that have been taken out of service.

Real-time fax impairment - 2000

With the deregulation of most Asian telecommunications markets, Xpedite’s cost advantage dissipated, and Xpedite decided to exit this service and concentrate on higher value-added services such as transactional messaging and messageREACH. The asset impairments of $0.8 million included the write-down of furniture and fixtures and real-time fax equipment including autodialers, faxpads and computers. The valuation was based on the fair value of the assets as of December 31, 2000. All equipment costs were incurred in conjunction with the closing of the real-time fax operations in Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Korea.

In June 2002, the Company entered into a term equipment loan with Commercial Federal Bank. The loan proceeds of $4.0 million were used for equipment purchases associated with the Premiere Conferencing operating segment. The term of the loan is thirty-six months and the annual interest rate is 5.5%. The loan is collateralized by certain fixed assets of the Company. The loan agreement contains certain covenants that are usual and customary. At December 31, 2002, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the loan agreement. At December 31, 2002 amounts outstanding on this term loan were $3.5 million.

In September 2001, the Company entered into a term equipment loan with United Missouri Bank. The loan proceeds of $6.5 million were used for equipment purchases associated with the Premiere Conferencing operating segment. The term of the loan is thirty months and the annual interest rate is 6.0%. The loan is collateralized by certain fixed assets of the Company. The loan agreement contains certain covenants that are usual and customary. At December 31, 2002, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the loan agreement. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, amounts outstanding on this term loan were $3.6 million and $6.1 million, respectively.

In June 2001, the Company entered into a capital lease obligation for headquarter expansion at Xpedite for approximately $1.1 million. The term of the lease is thirty-six months with a yield of 12.6%. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, amounts outstanding on this lease were approximately $0.6 million and 0.9 million, respectively.

During 2001, the Company also entered into four capital lease obligations in the aggregate amount of $4.8 million. The interest rates implied in these capital leases are both fixed and variable in nature and on average yield approximately 7.7% interest. The leases were to fund the network equipment used in consolidating and upgrading Voicecom’s voice messaging network. The terms of these capital leases range from 36 to 60 months. These leases were transferred with the sale of the Voicecom business unit. See Note 9—”Acquisitions and Dispositions.”

In September 2000, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Agreement”) for a one-year revolving credit facility with ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (the “Bank” or “Agent”). The Agreement provides for

borrowings of up to $20.0 million, and is subject to certain covenants that are usual and customary for credit agreements of this nature. The commitment to provide revolving credit loans under the Agreement terminates 364 days from September 29, 2000, subject to extension. The Company extended the agreement at September 30, 2001 for 364 days. The agreement was amended to provide for borrowings up to $13.5 million and is subject to certain covenants that management believes are usual and customary for credit agreements of this nature. Amounts outstanding under the Agreement on the expiration date may, at the option of the Company, either be paid in full or converted to a one-year term loan payable in four equal quarterly installments. Proceeds drawn under the Agreement may be used for capital expenditures, working capital, acquisitions, investments, refinancing of existing indebtedness, and other general corporate purposes. The annual interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Agreement is, at the Company’s option, (i) the Agent’s Base Rate plus 1.25 percent or (ii) the Euro Rate (LIBOR) plus 3.50 percent. Amounts committed but not drawn under the Agreement are subject to a commitment fee equal to 0.50 percent per annum. The Company terminated the Agreement on March 26, 2002 in connection with the sale of its Voicecom business unit.

In July 1997, the Company issued convertible subordinated notes (“Convertible Notes”) of $172.5 million that mature on July 1, 2004 and bear interest at 5-3/4%. The Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the holder into common stock at a conversion price of $33 per share, through the date of maturity, subject to adjustment in certain events. Beginning in July 2000, the Convertible Notes were redeemable by the Company at a price equal to 103% of the conversion price, declining to 100% at maturity with accrued interest. The annual interest commitment associated with these notes is $9.9 million and is paid semiannually on July 1 and January 1 of each year.

As of December 31, 2002, future minimum capital lease payments and principal maturities under indebtedness, excluding notes payable to banks, are as follows (in thousands):

Options exchanged for restricted shares

Due to declines in the Company’s share price over the course of the last several years, most of the employee and director option holders had options with exercise prices in excess of the market price of Company stock. In order to provide better performance incentives for employees and directors and to align the employees’ and directors’ interests with those of the shareholders, in the fourth quarter of 2001 the Company offered an exchange program in which it granted one restricted share of common stock in exchange for every 2.5 options tendered. Approximately 6.0 million employee and director stock options were exchanged for approximately 2.4 million shares of restricted stock on December 28, 2001, the date of the exchange. The restricted shares maintain the same vesting schedules as those of the original options exchanged, except that in the case of tendered options that were vested on the exchange date, the restricted shares received in exchange therefore vested on the day after the exchange date. To the extent options were vested at the exchange date, the Company recognized equity based compensation expense determined by using the closing price of the Company’s common stock at December 28, 2001, which was $3.32 a share. To the extent that restricted shares were received for unvested options exchanged, this cost was deferred on the balance sheet under the caption “Unearned restricted share compensation.” This value was also determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the exchange. The unearned restricted share compensation will be recognized as equity based compensation expense as these shares vest. In 2002 approximately 402,000 shares vested and equity based compensation expense of $1.3 million was recognized. Assuming all employees at December 31, 2002 will remain employed by the Company through their vesting period, the equity based compensation expense in future years resulting from the restricted shares issued in the option exchange will be $0.4 million in 2003 and $0.2 million in 2004. See further discussion in “Restricted Stock Exchange Offer” section of Note 17—“Equity Based Compensation Plans.”

In addition, approximately 890,000 options that were eligible to be exchanged for restricted shares pursuant to the exchange offer were not tendered. At December 31, 2002 the option count was approximately 627,000 due to

the sale of Voicecom and other cancellations of these options. These options will be subject to variable accounting until such options are exercised, are forfeited, or expire unexercised. These options have exercise prices ranging from $5.32 to $29.25. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, no charge was recorded because the exercise price of each of the options was greater than the market value of the Company’s common stock.

Restricted shares issued to executive management

Certain members of the executive management of the Company were awarded discretionary bonuses in the form of restricted shares in November 2001. The purpose of these discretionary bonuses was to better align executive management’s performance with the interests of the shareholders. Certain of these restricted shares vested immediately in 2001 and were restricted from trading for a one-year period. The remaining restricted shares vest straight line through 2004 and the equity based compensation expense recorded in 2002 was $0.5 million. The anticipated remaining equity based compensation expense resulting therefrom will be approximately $0.6 million per year for 2003 and 2004.

Loans and note forgiveness associated with restricted shares in former affiliates and related taxes

During the second quarter of 1999, the Company awarded restricted share grants to the CEO, COO and certain other officers of Company-owned shares held in certain investments in affiliates made in connection with its PtekVentures activities. The vesting periods for these shares ranged from immediately upon grant to three years, contingent on the executive being employed by the Company. In connection with this action, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $1.2 million in 2000 related to the vesting of these grants.

In 1999 and 2000, the Company loaned $6.3 million with recourse to the current CEO and COO to pay taxes in connection with these restricted share grants. These loans were due on December 31, 2006, accrued interest at 6.20% and were secured by the restricted shares granted. In March 2000, the Company agreed to forgive one-seventh of the principal plus accrued interest on such loans as of December 31, 2000, provided that the executives were employees of the Company on that date. Such amounts were forgiven as of December 31, 2000.

In 2001, the Company agreed to forgive the recourse tax loans to the CEO and COO, effective as of December 31, 2001, provided that the executives were employees of the Company on that date. The principal and interest forgiven was $5.8 million and the employee tax liability assumed by the Company was $5.3 million. The tax liability was paid primarily in the first quarter of 2002.

Compensation to management in association with restricted shares in former affiliates

In 2001, the Company approved discretionary bonuses in the aggregate amount of $0.5 million to two executive vice presidents of the Company who were awarded restricted share grants in affiliates during the second quarter of 1999, which shares had lost significant market value since the dates of grant.

Options and restricted shares issued for services rendered

In 2001, the Company issued stock options and restricted shares to consultants for various consulting services performed for the Company.

Shareholders’ Equity Components

Stock option exercises

During 2002, 2001 and 2000, stock options were exercised under the Company’s stock option plans. None of the options exercised qualified as incentive stock options, as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). Approximately $1.2 million, $0.0 million and $1.6 million was recorded as increases in additional paid-in capital reflecting tax benefits to be realized by the Company as a result of the exercise of such options during the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Stock repurchase program

In the second quarter of 2000, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program under which PTEK may purchase up to 10% of the then outstanding shares of its Common Stock, or approximately 4.8 million shares. During 2002, the Company repurchased approximately 1.8 million shares of its Common Stock under the program for approximately $6.6 million. During 2001, the Company repurchased approximately 1.1 million shares of its Common Stock under this program for approximately $3.1 million. In January 2003 the Board of Directors of the Company approved an increase in its 2000 stock repurchase program by authorizing the repurchase of up to an additional 10% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, or approximately 5.4 million shares.

401(k) plan

The Company issued 405,241 and 1,108,109 shares of its common stock during 2002 and 2001 respectively at a value of $1.6 million in each year to fund its discretionary employee contribution match under the Company’s 401(k) plan.

Associate stock purchase plan

The Company offers an Associate Stock Purchase Plan to provide eligible employees an opportunity to purchase shares of its common stock through payroll deductions. See Note 17—“Equity Based Compensation Plans” for plan details. Approximately 378,002, 480,965 and 479,000 shares of common stock valued at approximately $0.9 million, $0.8 million and $1.4 million were issued under this plan in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The ASPP was terminated effective January 14, 2003.

Shares issued for legal settlement

During 2002, the Company issued approximately 249,000 shares and $1.8 million in cash as payment of the class action lawsuit, net of legal expenses. The aggregate value of the shares was approximately $1.3 million and is included in common stock and additional paid in capital. During 2001, the Company issued 100,000 shares as part of a legal settlement with a former executive of the Company. This legal settlement was accrued for in prior years. The aggregate value of the shares issued on the date of the settlement was approximately $0.3 million and appears as an increase in common stock and additional paid in capital.

Shareholder notes receivable

The shareholder notes receivable relates to transactions where the Company made loans to the CEO of the Company and to a limited partnership in which the CEO has an indirect interest in association with exercises of options to purchase the Company’s common stock. Loan advances totaled $0.8 million and $2.8 million during 2001 and 2000, respectively. See Note 19—”Related Party Transactions.”

17. EQUITY BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

The Company has four equity based compensation plans, the 1994 Stock Option Plan, the 1995 Stock Plan (the “1995 Plan”), the 1998 Stock Plan (the “1998 Plan”) and the 2000 Directors Stock Plan (the “Directors Plan”), which provide for the issuance of restricted stock, stock options, warrants or stock appreciation rights to employees, directors, non-employee consultants and advisors of the Company. These plans are administered by committees consisting of members of the board of directors of the Company.

Options for all 960,000 shares of common stock available under the 1994 Stock Option Plan have been granted. All such options are non-qualified, provide for an exercise price equal to fair market value at date of grant, vest ratably over three years and expire eight years from date of grant.

The 1995 Plan provides for the issuance of stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) and restricted stock to employees. A total of 9,650,000 shares of common stock has been reserved in connection with the 1995 Plan. Options issued under the 1995 Plan may be either incentive stock options, which permit income tax deferral upon exercise of options, or nonqualified options not entitled to such deferral.

Sharp declines in the market price of the Company’s common stock resulted in many outstanding employee stock options being exercisable at prices that exceeded the current market price of the Company’s common stock, thereby substantially impairing the effectiveness of such options as performance incentives. Consistent with the Company’s philosophy of using equity incentives to motivate and retain management and employees, the Board of Directors determined it to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to restore the performance incentives intended to be provided by employee stock options by repricing such options. Consequently, on July 22, 1998 the Board of Directors of the Company determined to reprice or regrant all employee stock options which had exercise prices in excess of the closing price on such date (other than those of Chief Executive Officer Boland T. Jones) to $10.25, which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock on such date. While the vesting schedules remained unchanged, the repriced and regranted options were generally subject to a twelve-month black-out period, during which the options could not be exercised. If an optionee’s employment was terminated during the black-out period, he or she would forfeit any repriced or regranted options that first vested during the twelve-month period preceding his or her termination of employment. On December 14, 1998, the Board of Directors determined to reprice or regrant at an exercise price of $5.50, all employee stock options which had an exercise price in excess of $5.50, which was above the closing price of the Company’s common stock on such date. Again, the vesting schedules remained the same and the repriced or regranted options were generally subject to a twelve-month black-out period during which the options could not be exercised. If the optionee’s employment was terminated during the black-out period, he or she would forfeit any repriced or regranted options that first vested during the twelve month period preceding his or her termination of employment. By imposing the black-out and forfeiture provisions on the repriced and regranted options, the Board of Directors intended to provide added incentive for the optionees to continue service.

On July 22, 1998, the Board of Directors approved the 1998 Plan, which essentially mirrors the terms of the 1995 Plan except that it is not intended to be used for executive officers or directors. In addition, the 1998 Plan, because the shareholders did not approve it, does not provide for the grant of incentive stock options. Under the 1998 Plan, 8,000,000 shares of common stock are reserved for the grant of nonqualified stock options and other incentive awards to employees and consultants of the Company.

The Company has adopted the Associate Stock Purchase Plan (“ASPP”) to encourage associates of PTEK to acquire a proprietary interest, or to increase their existing interest in the Company. The company has reserved 1,750,000 shares of common stock for purchase by associates under the plan. All employees who have worked a minimum of 20 hours per week for at least five months of each calendar year and who have completed two months of consecutive service are eligible to participate and purchase stock through payroll deductions. The purchase price of the stock is equal to 85% of the fair market value of the common stock on either the purchase date or the offering date of each six month subscription period, whichever is lower. Purchases under the ASPP are limited to 20% of an associate’s compensation for any pay period and a maximum fair market value of $25,000 for a calendar year. Approximately 378,000, 481,000 and 479,000 shares of common stock valued at approximately $0.9 million, $0.8 million and $1.4 million were issued under the ASPP in 2002, 2001 and 2000 respectively. The ASPP was terminated effective January 14, 2003.

On April 26, 2000 the Board of Directors approved the Directors Plan which was subsequently approved by the shareholders on June 7, 2000. On June, 5, 2002, the shareholders approved an increase in the shares available for awards by 1.0 million. The class of persons to participate in this plan consists solely of persons who, at the date of grant of Options, are Directors of the Company and are not employed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Under the Directors Plan, the maximum number of shares that may be issued is 2.0 million, of which no more than 10% shall be granted in the form of restricted stock, subject to antidilution adjustments as defined by the Plan.

Restricted Stock Exchange Offer

Due to declines in the Company’s share price over the course of the last several years, most of the employee and director option holders had options with exercise prices in excess of the market price of Company stock. In order to provide better performance incentives for employees and directors and to align the employees’ and directors’ interests with those of the shareholders, in the fourth quarter of 2001 the Company offered an exchange program in which it granted one restricted share of common stock in exchange for every 2.5 options tendered. Approximately 6.0 million employee and director stock options were exchanged for approximately 2.4 million shares of restricted stock on December 28, 2001, the date of the exchange. The restricted shares maintain the same vesting schedules as those of the original options exchanged, except that in the case of tendered options that were vested on the exchange date, the restricted shares received in exchange therefore vested on the day after the exchange date. To the extent options were vested at the exchange date, the Company recognized equity based compensation expense determined by using the closing price of the Company’s common stock at December 28, 2001, which was $3.32 a share. To the extent that restricted shares were received for unvested options exchanged, this cost was deferred on the balance sheet under the caption “Unearned restricted share compensation.” This value was also determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the exchange. The unearned restricted share compensation will be recognized as equity based compensation expense as these shares vest. In 2002 approximately 402,000 shares vested and equity based compensation expense of $1.3 million was recognized. Assuming all employees at December 31, 2002 will remain employed by the Company through their vesting period, the equity based compensation expense in future years resulting from the restricted shares issued in the option exchange will be $0.4 million in 2003 and $0.2 million in 2004. See further discussion in “Restricted Stock Exchange Offer” section of Note 17—“Equity Based Compensation Plans.”

In accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 44, “Accounting For Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation—An Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25,” the Company recorded approximately $2.1 million as unearned compensation for the intrinsic value of the restricted stock on the effective date of the exchange offer, calculated using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on December 28, 2001. The unearned compensation will be amortized to “Equity based compensation” expense over the vesting period of the restricted stock of which approximately $1.3 million vested in 2002.

In addition, approximately 890,000 options at December 31, 2001 that were eligible to be exchanged for restricted stock pursuant to the exchange offer were not tendered. At December 31, 2002 the option count was approximately 627,000 due to the sale of Voicecom and other cancellations of these options. These options will be subject to variable accounting until such options are exercised, are forfeited, or expire unexercised. These options have exercise prices ranging from $5.32 to $29.25. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, no charge was recorded because the exercise price of each of the options was greater than the market value of the Company’s common stock.

Loans and note forgiveness associated with restricted shares in former affiliates and related taxes

During the second quarter of 1999, the Company awarded restricted share grants to the CEO, COO and certain other officers of Company-owned shares held in certain investments in affiliates made in connection with its PtekVentures activities. The vesting periods for these shares ranged from immediately upon grant to three years, contingent on the executive being employed by the Company. In connection with this action, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $1.2 million in 2000 related to the vesting of these grants.

In 1999 and 2000, the Company loaned $6.3 million with recourse to the current CEO and COO to pay taxes in connection with these restricted share grants. These loans were due on December 31, 2006, accrued interest at 6.20% and were secured by the restricted shares granted. In March 2000, the Company agreed to forgive one-seventh of the principal plus accrued interest on such loans as of December 31, 2000, provided that the executives were employees of the Company on that date. Such amounts were forgiven as of December 31, 2000.

In 2001, the Company agreed to forgive the remaining balance of the recourse tax loans to the CEO and COO, effective as of December 31, 2001, provided that the executives were employees of the Company on that date. The principal and interest forgiven was $5.8 million and the employee tax liability assumed by the Company was $5.3 million. The tax liability was paid primarily in the first quarter of 2002.

Notes receivable – shareholder

The Company has made loans to the CEO of the Company and a limited partnership in which he has an indirect interest. These loans were made pursuant to the CEO’s then current employment agreement for the exercise price of certain stock options and the taxes related thereto. Each of these loans is evidenced by a recourse promissory note bearing interest at the applicable Federal rate and secured by the common stock purchased. These loans mature between 2007 and 2010. These loans, including accrued interest, are recorded in the equity section of the balance sheet under the caption “Notes receivable, shareholder.” At December 31, 2002, the aggregate amount of these loans was $5.0 million.

Notes receivable – employees

During 2002, the Company loaned approximately $2.0 million with recourse to certain members of management to pay taxes in connection with the restricted shares issued in exchange for options in December 2001 and the discretionary restricted shares issued in November 2001. These loans are due in 2012, accrue interest at a weighted average rate of 5.5%, and are secured by the restricted shares granted. The total interest accrued on these loans as of December 31, 2002 was approximately $0.1 million. The Company is obligated to make additional loans to pay taxes associated with the future vesting of restricted shares, but the dollar amount of such loans cannot be determined at this time.

Use of airplane

During 2002, 2001 and 2000, the Company leased the use of an airplane from a limited liability company that is owned 99% by the Company’s CEO and 1% by the Company. In connection with this lease arrangement, the Company has incurred costs of $1.9 million, $2.2 million and $1.8 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, to pay the expenses of maintaining and operating the airplane.

Strategic co-marketing arrangement

The Company had a strategic co-marketing arrangement with WebMD, a former affiliate. The terms of the agreement provided for WebMD to make an annual minimum commitment of $2.5 million for four years to purchase the Company’s products. The Company in turn was obligated to purchase portal rights from WebMD for $4 million over four years to assist in marketing its products. Under this agreement, which expires on February 17, 2003, the Company recognized revenue of approximately $2.5 million in each of 2002, 2001 and 2000. WebMD also subleased floor space in the Company’s headquarters for approximately $0.7 million in each of the two years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000.

20. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Operating Lease Commitments

The Company leases computer and telecommunications equipment, office space and other equipment under noncancelable lease agreements. The leases generally provide that the Company pay the taxes, insurance and maintenance expenses related to the leased assets. Future minimum lease payments for noncancelable operating leases as of December 31, 2002 are as follows (in thousands):

2003	$	12,879

Net minimum lease payments	$	57,745

Rent expense under operating leases was approximately $10.2 million, $8.0 million and $7.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Facilities rent is reduced by sublease income of approximately $0.0 million, $0.7 million and $0.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Supply Agreements

The Company obtains telecommunications services pursuant to supply agreements with telecommunications service providers. These contracts generally provide fixed transmission prices for terms of three to five years, but are subject to early termination in certain events. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to obtain telecommunications services in the future at favorable prices or at all, and the unavailability of telecommunications services, or a material increase in the price at which the Company is able to obtain telecommunications services, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company is currently a party to telecommunications service contracts with certain service providers that require the Company to purchase a minimum amount of services through 2006. These costs are approximately $13.7 million, $9.5 million, $1.4 million and $0.5 million in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. The total amount of the minimum purchase requirements in 2002 was approximately $9.1 million, of which the Company incurred costs in excess of these minimums.

Litigation and Claims

The Company has several litigation matters pending, as described below, which it is defending vigorously. Due to the inherent uncertainties of the litigation process and the judicial system, the Company is unable to predict the outcome of such litigation matters. If the outcome of one or more of such matters is adverse to the Company, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

A lawsuit was filed on November 4, 1998 against the Company and certain of its officers and directors in the Southern District of New York. Plaintiffs are shareholders of Xpedite who acquired common stock of the Company as a result of the merger between the Company and Xpedite in February 1998. Plaintiffs’ allegations are based on the representations and warranties made by the Company in the prospectus and the registration statement related to the merger, the merger agreement and other documents incorporated by reference, regarding the Company’s acquisitions of Voice-Tel and VoiceCom Systems, the Company’s roll-out of Orchestrate, the Company’s relationship with customers Amway Corporation and DigiTEC, 2000, and the Company’s 800-based

calling card service. Plaintiffs allege causes of action against the Company for breach of contract, against all defendants for negligent misrepresentation, violations of Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and against the individual defendants for violation of Section 15 of the Securities Act. Plaintiffs seek undisclosed damages together with pre- and post-judgment interest, recission or recissory damages as to violation of Section 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act, punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees. The defendants’ motion to transfer venue to Georgia has been granted. The defendants’ motion to dismiss has been granted in part and denied in part. The defendants filed an answer on March 30, 2000. On January 22, 2002, the court ordered the parties to mediate. The parties did so on February 8, 2002. On October 17, 2002, the Defendants filed a Motion for Summary Judgment and a Motion in Limine to exclude the testimony of the Plaintiffs’ expert. Both motions are pending.

On February 23, 1998, Rudolf R. Nobis and Constance Nobis filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Union County, New Jersey against 15 named defendants including Xpedite and certain of its alleged current and former officers, directors, agents and representatives. The plaintiffs allege that the 15 named defendants and certain unidentified “John Doe defendants” engaged in wrongful activities in connection with the management of the plaintiffs’ investments with Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States and/or Equico Securities, Inc. (collectively “Equitable”). The complaint asserts wrongdoing in connection with the plaintiffs’ investment in securities of Xpedite and in unrelated investments involving insurance-related products. The defendants include Equitable and certain of its current or former representatives. The allegations in the complaint against Xpedite are limited to plaintiffs’ investment in Xpedite. The plaintiffs have alleged that two of the named defendants, allegedly acting as officers, directors, agents or representatives of Xpedite, induced the plaintiffs to make certain investments in Xpedite but that the plaintiffs failed to receive the benefits that they were promised. Plaintiffs allege that Xpedite knew or should have known of alleged wrongdoing on the part of other defendants. Plaintiffs seek an accounting of the corporate stock in Xpedite, compensatory damages of approximately $4.9 million, plus $200,000 in “lost investments,” interest and/or dividends that have accrued and have not been paid, punitive damages in an unspecified amount, and for certain equitable relief, including a request for Xpedite to issue 139,430 shares of common stock in the plaintiffs’ names, attorneys’ fees and costs and such other and further relief as the court deems just and equitable. This case has been dismissed without prejudice and compelled to NASD arbitration, which has commenced. In August 2000, the plaintiffs filed a statement of claim with the NASD against 12 named respondents, including Xpedite (the “Nobis Respondents”). The claimants allege that the 12 named respondents engaged in wrongful activities in connection with the management of the claimants’ investments with Equitable. The statement of claim asserts wrongdoing in connection with the claimants’ investment in securities of Xpedite and in unrelated investments involving insurance-related products. The allegations in the statement of claim against Xpedite are limited to claimants’ investment in Xpedite. Claimants seek, among other things, an accounting of the corporate stock in Xpedite, compensatory damages of not less than $415,000, a fair conversion rate on stock options, losses on the investments, plus interest and all dividends, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. Hearings before the NASD panel were held on November 27-29, 2001, January 22-24, 2002, February 4-7, 2002, April 9-19, 2002, and May 30, 2002. On July 31, 2002, the NASD Panel issued its Award. The Award was subsequently amended on September 9, 2002. The Panel, among other things, held Xpedite, along with co-Respondents Angrisani, Erb, and CEA Financial, jointly and severally liable to Claimant Constance Nobis for $50,000, plus 9% simple interest from January 1, 1999 until September 9, 2002. The Panel also held Angrisani, Erb, and CEA Financial jointly and severally liable to Xpedite for $50,000, plus 9% simple interest from January 1, 1999 until September 9, 2002. Xpedite has filed a Notice of Petition, Verified Petition to Vacate Arbitration Award, and Request for Judicial Intervention in New York State. That proceeding is pending. At a hearing on January 10, 2003, the New Jersey Superior Court affirmed the NASD Award. No order or judgment, however, has been issued by the New Jersey Superior Court.

On September 3, 1999, Elizabeth Tendler filed a complaint in the Superior Court of New Jersey Law Division, Union County, against 17 named defendants including PTEK and Xpedite, and various alleged current and former officers, directors, agents and representatives of Xpedite. The plaintiff alleges that the defendants engaged in wrongful activities in connection with the management of the plaintiff’s investments, including investments in Xpedite. The allegations against Xpedite and PTEK are limited to plaintiff’s investment in Xpedite. Plaintiff’s claims against Xpedite and PTEK include breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, conversion, fraud, interference with economic advantage, liability for ultra vires acts, violation of the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act and violation of New Jersey RICO. Plaintiff seeks an accounting of the corporate stock of

Xpedite, compensatory damages of approximately $1.3 million, accrued interest and/or dividends, a constructive trust on the proceeds of the sale of any Xpedite or PTEK stock, shares of Xpedite and/or PTEK to satisfy defendants’ obligations to plaintiff, attorneys’ fees and costs, punitive and exemplary damages in an unspecified amount, and treble damages. On February 25, 2000, Xpedite filed its answer, as well as cross claims and third party claims. This case has been dismissed without prejudice and compelled to NASD arbitration, which has commenced. In August 2000, a statement of claim was also filed with the NASD against all but one of the Nobis Respondents making virtually the same allegations on behalf of claimant Elizabeth Tendler. Claimant seeks an accounting of the corporate stock in Xpedite, compensatory damages of not less than $265,000, a fair conversion rate on stock options, losses on other investments, interest and/or unpaid dividends, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. Hearings before the NASD panel were held on November 27-29, 2001, January 22-24, 2002, February 4-7, 2002, April 9-19, 2002, and May 30, 2002. On July 31, 2002, the NASD Panel issued its Award. The Award was subsequently amended on September 9, 2002. The Panel, among other things, held Xpedite, along with co-respondents Angrisani, Erb, and CEA Financial, jointly and severally liable to claimant Elizabeth Tendler for $57,500, plus 9% simple interest from March 1, 1999 until September 9, 2002. The Panel also held Angrisani, Erb, and CEA Financial jointly and severally liable to Xpedite for $57,500, plus 9% simple interest form March 1, 1999 until September 9, 2002. Xpedite has filed a Notice of Petition, Verified Petition to Vacate Arbitration Award, and Request for Judicial Intervention in New York State. That proceeding is pending. At a hearing on January 10, 2003, the New Jersey Superior Court affirmed the NASD Award. No order or judgment, however, has been issued by the New Jersey Superior Court.

On December 10, 2001, Voice-Tel filed a Complaint against Voice-Tel franchisees JOBA, Inc. (“JOBA”) and Digital Communication Services, Inc. (“Digital”) in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. The Complaint sought injunctive relief and a declaratory judgment with respect to Voice-Tel’s right to terminate the franchise agreements with JOBA and Digital. On January 7, 2002, JOBA and Digital answered Voice-Tel’s Complaint and asserted counterclaims against Voice-Tel for alleged breach of franchise agreements and other alleged franchise-related agreements. JOBA and Digital also asserted claims alleging tortious interference of contract against Premiere Communications, Inc. (“PCI”) and PTEK. On January 18, 2002, Voice-Tel, PCI and PTEK filed responses and answers to the counterclaims and filed additional breach of contract and tort claims against JOBA and Digital. In March 2002, Voice-Tel and JOBA and Digital sought leave of court to file amended complaints and answers, which the court granted as to JOBA and Digital and granted in part and denied in part as to Voice-Tel. The Digital Franchise Agreement contained a mandatory arbitration provision, which was not found in the JOBA Franchise Agreement. Therefore, on April 10, 2002, the federal court severed the Digital breach of franchise agreement claims and ordered them to be arbitrated. The Court ordered that all remaining claims, including but not limited to the breach of franchise agreement claims as to JOBA, would remain in federal court. The arbitration is currently scheduled for July 13, 2003 and will be held in Atlanta, Georgia. There is a proposal outstanding that all parties agree to submit all claims to arbitration including the Federal Court claims. At this time, this proposal has not been agreed to by any of the parties. Discovery with respect to the arbitration will end on June 25, 2003. On July 10, 2002, JOBA and Digital moved to amend their Complaint to add claims for constructive termination of their franchises, which was subsequently denied by the court on September 11, 2002. On July 16, 2002, Voicecom Telecommunications, LLC (“Voicecom”) was added as a party Plaintiff in the lawsuit against JOBA and Digital. With the exception of expert and damages testimony, discovery has now concluded and the parties are awaiting a trial date. The parties have filed motions and cross motions for partial summary judgment, including responses thereto. A mediation of all claims between all parties was held on March 24, 2003, which failed to resolve any of the issues in litigation.

On January 30, 2002, a complaint was filed by 15 Lake Bellevue, LLC in the Superior Court of King County, Washington. Plaintiff sought to enforce a Lease Guaranty Agreement entered into by the Company on behalf of Webforia, Inc. with respect to a lease for commercial real estate located in Bellevue, King County, Washington. The Company’s potential liability under the Guaranty was limited to the lesser of the lease obligations or $2,000,000, together with attorneys’ fees, interest and collection expenses. The Company filed an answer to the lawsuit, and on May 17, 2002, the plaintiff filed a motion for partial summary judgment. On June 18, 2002, the court entered an order finding unconditional liability on the part of the Company with respect to the guaranty but reserving the issue of the amount of the Company’s liability for trial. On December 31, 2002 the parties entered into a settlement agreement resolving in full all claims asserted by each party against the other.

On March 25, 2003, EasyLink Services Corporation (“EasyLink”) filed an amended complaint against the Company, Xpedite and AT&T Corp. (“AT&T”), in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Chancery Division: Middlesex County. EasyLink’s complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company entered into an agreement to purchase a secured promissory note in the original principal amount of $10 million and 1,423,980 shares of EasyLink’s Class A common stock for the purpose of obtaining EasyLink’s business by using the acquired securities to block a debt restructuring that EasyLink was allegedly pursuing with its creditors, including AT&T, and for other improper motives. EasyLink’s complaint alleges that it pursued such debt restructuring in reliance on its understanding that AT&T would participate in the restructuring on certain terms to which EasyLink and AT&T allegedly had agreed, and that AT&T misled EasyLink as to its intentions with respect to such restructuring. The complaint further alleges that AT&T disclosed confidential information of EasyLink to the Company in violation of AT&T’s agreements with EasyLink, and that such information was used by AT&T and the Company in furtherance of a joint scheme to force EasyLink out of the marketplace. EasyLink’s complaint also alleges that employees of the Company and Xpedite have knowingly made false statements to EasyLink’s customers, investors and creditors regarding EasyLink and its financial stability. EasyLink claims that these various actions have impaired its ability to restructure its debt effectively and caused it to suffer various other commercial losses. EasyLink’s complaint seeks to (i) enjoin AT&T from selling the secured promissory note to the Company, improperly interfering with EasyLink’s business and contracts and disclosing EasyLink’s confidential information without EasyLink’s consent; (ii) compel AT&T to consummate EasyLink’s proposed restructuring; (iii) enjoin the Company and Xpedite from making false statements to EasyLink’s customers and creditors regarding EasyLink and its financial position; (iv) enjoin the Company from contacting EasyLink’s creditors and preventing the restructuring of EasyLink’s debt; and (v) enjoin the Company and Xpedite from using EasyLink’s confidential information and contacting EasyLink’s current and former employees to obtain such confidential information. EasyLink’s complaint also seeks unspecified damages from AT&T and the Company. The Company intends to answer and defend this lawsuit.

The Company is also involved in various other legal proceedings which the Company does not believe will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations, although no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of any such proceedings.

The Company and certain of its officers and directors were named as defendants in multiple shareholder class action lawsuits filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. Plaintiffs represented a class of individuals (including a subclass of former Voice-Tel Enterprises, Inc. (“Voice-Tel”) franchisees and a subclass of former Xpedite Systems, Inc. (“Xpedite”) shareholders) who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s common stock from as early as February 11, 1997 through June 10, 1998. Plaintiffs alleged, among other things, violation of Sections 10(b), 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Sections 11, 12 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. Following a court ordered mediation, the parties reached a proposed settlement of all claims. A final fairness hearing on the proposed settlement before the court was held on July 8, 2002, and the Order and Final Judgment finally approving the settlement was entered on July 15, 2002. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company contributed 249,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock plus approximately $1.8 million in cash, and the insurance carriers contributed approximately $17.7 million in cash, for a total settlement amount of $20.75 million.

In May 2000, the Company was served with a Complaint filed by Robert Cowan in the Circuit Court of Jackson County, Missouri, alleging claims for breach of contract, fraudulent misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation, breach of duty of good faith and fair dealings, unjust enrichment, and violation of Georgia and Missouri blue sky laws. Plaintiff’s claims arise out of the Company’s acquisition of American Teleconferencing Services, Ltd. (“ATS”) in April 1998. Plaintiff was a shareholder of ATS who received shares of PTEK stock in the transaction. Three other similarly situated plaintiffs later joined the suit. On August 28, 2002, the parties entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release pursuant to which, among other things, the Company paid the Plaintiffs $3.6 million and all claims were dismissed with prejudice.

The Company is required to estimate its taxes in each jurisdiction of operation. This process involves management estimating its tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. The ultimate recognition of uncertain tax matters is realized in the period of resolution.

At December 31, 2002, the Company had federal income tax net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $73.9 million expiring in 2005 through 2022. The utilization of some of the net operating losses are subject to Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limitations due to prior ownership changes. Tax benefits of approximately $1.2 million, $0.0 million and $1.6 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, are associated with nonqualified stock option exercises, the benefit of which was credited directly to additional paid-in capital.

The Company was able to carryback capital losses generated in 2001 against prior years capital gains for approximately $9.2 million in federal income tax refunds. This refund due was recorded as “federal income tax receivable” on the balance sheet at December 31, 2001.

During the year ended December 31, 2002, the valuation allowance changed by $23.0 million. The change was the result of several factors including a transmutation of $3.0 million of capital loss carryforwards into realizable net operating loss carryforwards. In addition, $3.4 million and $1.3 million for federal and foreign net operating loss carryforwards were deemed likely to be utilized and $8.3 million and $7.0 million relating to expiring state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards were written off, for which the correlating assets were also written off.

23. SEGMENT REPORTING

PTEK Holdings, Inc., a Georgia corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company” or “PTEK”), is a global provider of business communications services, including conferencing (audio conferencing and Web-based collaboration) and multimedia messaging (high-volume actionable communications, e-mail, wireless messaging, voice message delivery and fax). The Company’s reportable segments align the Company into two operating segments based on product offering. These segments are Premiere Conferencing and Xpedite. Premiere Conferencing offers a full suite of enhanced audio, automated audio and Web conferencing services for all forms of group communications activities. Xpedite offers a comprehensive suite of business services that enable actionable two-way communications which allow corporations to better acquire and retain customers as well as automate their core business processes. In addition, the Company had one other reportable segment, Voicecom, which the Company exited through the sale of that segment effective March 26, 2002. Voicecom offered a suite of integrated communications solutions including voice messaging, interactive voice response services and unified communications. Retail Calling Card Services is a business segment that the Company exited through the sale of its revenue base effective August 1, 2000. It primarily consisted of the Premiere WorldLink calling card product, which was marketed primarily through direct response advertising and co-branding relationships to individual retail users.

On January 1, 2001, management responsibility for international conferencing services was transferred from Xpedite to Premiere Conferencing. Prior to that date, these international revenues were reported in the Xpedite operating segment. The revenues of the Australian operations of Voicecom that were retained in conjunction with the sale of this operating segment are reported in the international results of Xpedite effective January 1, 2002. In order to report comparable operating segment financial results, certain financial information for years prior to 2001 has been reclassified. Overall these reclassifications did not have a material impact on the financial results of the operating segments for the periods presented.

Premiere Conferencing has historically relied on sales through a particular customer for a significant portion of its revenues. Sales to that customer accounted for approximately 12% of consolidated revenues from continuing operations (29% of Premiere Conferencing’s revenues) in 2002, 10% of consolidated revenues form continuing operations (29% of Premiere Conferencing’s revenues) in 2001, and 5% of consolidated revenues from continuing operations (22% of Premiere Conferencing’s revenues) in 2000.

PTEK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

24. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (UNAUDITED)

In January, 2003, Xpedite acquired substantially all of the assets related to the U.S. based e-mail and facsimile messaging business of Cable & Wireless USA, Inc. (“C&W”), and assumed certain liabilities, for a total purchase price of $11.4 million. The Company paid $6.0 million in cash at closing, $0.4 million in transaction and closing costs, and will pay $5.0 million in 16 equal quarterly installments commencing with the quarter ended March 31, 2003. The Company followed SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” and approximately $1.1 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to acquire property, plant and equipment, and approximately $10.3 million of the aggregate purchase price has been allocated to identifiable customer lists which are being amortized over a five-year useful life.

On February 27, 2003, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement and Note Purchase Agreement with AT&T Corp. (“AT&T”) pursuant to which the Company has agreed to purchase from AT&T, and AT&T has agreed to sell to the Company, 1,423,980 shares of the Class A Common Stock (the “Shares”) and a Promissory Note of EasyLink Services Corporation (NASDAQ: EASY) (“EasyLink”) in the stated principal amount of $10.0 million (the “Note”). The obligation of each party to consummate the transactions contemplated by each such purchase agreement is conditioned upon, among other things, the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to such party’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by the other purchase agreement.

The Note is secured by assets representing the substantial portion of EasyLink’s operations. Principal and accrued interest on the note, aggregating over $12.0 million, is payable in 13 quarterly installments beginning June 1, 2003. The principal and accrued interest obligations bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum until paid. The Shares to be purchased represent approximately 8.9% of the outstanding Class A common shares and 8.4% of the total outstanding common shares of EasyLink.

As consideration for the sale of the Shares and the Note, the Company has agreed to pay AT&T $4.0 million in cash and to issue to AT&T a warrant to acquire 250,000 shares of the Common Stock of the Company. The warrant will be exercisable at any time during the seven years following the date of issuance, at an exercise price to be determined on the basis of trading prices of the Company’s Common Stock during the ten trading days prior to the issuance of the warrant. The aggregate purchase price for the Shares, as set forth in the Share Purchase Agreement, is $825,908, or $0.58 per share, which amount equals the average of the high and low selling price of the Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market during the five trading days immediately preceding the date of the Share Purchase Agreement. Despite the Share Purchase Agreement stating such separate purchase price for the Shares, the Company views its purchase of the Shares and the Note as a single transaction, for the total consideration set forth above. The cash consideration for the purchase of the Shares and the Note will be paid out of the working capital of PTEK.

On March 3, 2003, EasyLink demanded that the Company and AT&T terminate their agreements for the purchase and sale of the Note and the Shares. In connection with such demand, EasyLink has asserted that AT&T and PTEK may have violated commitments of AT&T and the Company to EasyLink and that the Company has engaged in certain improper activities with respect to EasyLink and in connection with the transaction. The Company considers these allegations to be groundless and has denied each of them. PTEK expects to consummate the purchase of the Note and Shares, subject to the conditions set forth in the respective purchase agreements.

On March 25, 2003, EasyLink filed a lawsuit against the Company, Xpedite and AT&T. See Note 20— “Commitments and Contingencies” for a detailed discussion of this litigation.

In addition, the Company realized tax benefits of approximately $1.0 million and $4.6 million in the third and fourth quarters of 2002, respectively, due to changes in previous estimates.

The results of operations in all the quarters in 2002 and the 2001 second and fourth quarters include charges associated with some or all of the following; asset impairments, equity based compensation, restructuring costs, net legal settlements and related expenses and asset impairments and obligations – investments.

Item 9. Changes and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

On October 2, 2001, PTEK dismissed Arthur Andersen, LLP as its independent accountants and engaged PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP as its new independent accountants. The decision to change accountants was recommended by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The change in certifying accountants was reported in PTEK’s Current Report on Form 8-K, dated October 2, 2001 and filed with the SEC on October 9, 2001. Due to the discontinued operations in 2002 resulting from the sale of the Company’s Voicecom operations, PricewaterhouseCoopers was engaged to re-audit the Company for 2000. Thus, this Annual Report does not include any reports of Arthur Andersen, LLP.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2002. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of December 31, 2002, to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2002 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(1) All options have an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying Common Stock on the date of grant. The options vest one-third on each of January 1, 2003, 2004 and 2005, subject to accelerated vesting of all or a portion of the options upon a change in control of the Company or termination of Mr. Buyens’ employment without cause.

(2) Amounts reported in these columns represent hypothetical amounts that may be realized upon exercise of options immediately prior to the expiration of their term assuming the specified compounded rates of appreciation of the Common Stock over the term of the options. These numbers are calculated based on rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not reflect the Company’s estimate of future stock price growth. Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises and Common Stock holdings are dependent on the timing of such exercises and the future performance of the Common Stock. There can be no assurances that the rates of appreciation assumed in this table can be achieved or that the amounts reflected will be received by the individuals. This table does not take into account any appreciation of the price of the Common Stock from the date of grant to the current date.

(1) These values have been calculated by subtracting the option exercise price from the market price of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market’s National Market on December 31, 2002, and multiplying that figure by the total number of exercisable/unexercisable options.

Directors’ Compensation

Directors are reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with their attendance at Board meetings, and outside directors receive a base retainer of $20,000 per Board year, which increases to $40,000 per Board year if an outside director attends all Board meetings and all of his Board committee meetings during such Board year. The Chair of the Audit Committee receives an additional retainer of $10,000 and each member of the Audit Committee receives an additional retainer of $5,000 per Board year. The Chair of each other standing committee of the Board, with the exception of the 1994 Stock Option Plan Committee, receives an additional retainer of $5,000 per Board year; provided, that if a director is the Chair of more than one other standing committee, that director receives a total additional retainer of $5,000 for the Board year.

The Company generally grants an option to purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock on the date of grant to each new director upon his or her initial appointment or election to the Board of Directors. Generally, one-third of these options vest and become exercisable on the date of each of the annual meetings of shareholders of the Company subsequent to the director’s initial election, provided that the director is a member of the Board on those dates, and subject to acceleration upon a change of control in the Company, as such term is defined in the respective stock option agreements.

A Special Committee of outside directors was established by the Board of Directors on September 27, 2002 to review and make recommendations regarding a proposed business transaction. The Special Committee, which consisted of Messrs. Booth (Chair), Buerger and Smith, met seven times in 2002. The Chair of the Special Committee received $15,000, and each other member received $10,000 for serving on the Special Committee, plus $500 for each meeting attended. The Special Committee is currently inactive.

In March 2002, the Board of Directors approved an arrangement with Jeffrey M. Cunningham pursuant to which he became Vice Chairman, a non-employee position, and in such position he provides certain services to the Company. In connection therewith, the Company granted to Mr. Cunningham an option to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and the Company agreed to pay Mr. Cunningham a maximum of $200,000 in cash compensation, payable $10,000 per month for the first twelve months and up to $80,000 in the event certain revenue targets are achieved. Mr. Cunningham received a total of $90,000 in 2002 under the monthly payment arrangement. See “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.”

Employment Agreements

The Company or its subsidiaries have entered into employment agreements or employment letters with the following Named Executive Officers, which in 2002 provided as follows:

Boland T. Jones. Pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, Mr. Jones’ base salary for 2002 was $750,000. He is also entitled to any additional compensation provided for by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company or its Compensation Committee. In addition to his base salary, Mr. Jones is entitled under his employment agreement to earn an annual bonus based on the Company achieving its quarterly and annual targets for revenue and EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization). Mr. Jones’ target bonus for

90

each calendar year is equal to 100% of his base salary for such year, subject to a sliding scale, with 80% of the target bonus allocated to achievement of cumulative quarterly targets (20% per quarter) and 20% allocated to achievement of annual targets. His bonus is based two-thirds on achievement of EBITDA targets and one-third on achievement of revenue targets. The maximum amount of Mr. Jones’ bonus is 150% of his target bonus. Mr. Jones agreed to reduce his base salary for 2002 from $826,875 to $750,000, and to reduce his target bonus for 2002 from $826,875 to $200,000, in exchange for a grant of 156,125 shares of common stock of the Company in November 2001. Mr. Jones received a $96,000 cash bonus for 2002 based on the achievement of quarterly and annual targets.

The term of Mr. Jones’ employment agreement expires on January 1, 2005. Thereafter, it renews automatically for successive one-year terms unless either party elects not to renew at least 30 days prior to expiration of the term. Mr. Jones’ employment agreement provides that he will not compete with the Company during the term of his employment and for one year thereafter. The Company may terminate Mr. Jones’ employment only for cause. Notwithstanding such provision, if the Company terminates his employment for any reason, either (1) before a change in control of the Company or (2) after the twenty-four month period following a change in control, or if the Company terminates his employment for cause during such twenty-four month period following a change in control, Mr. Jones will be entitled to severance compensation equal to 2.99 times the greater of (a) the sum of his annual base salary in effect at the date of his termination plus his target bonus for the year in which his termination occurs, and (b) the sum of the highest annual base salary and annual cash bonus paid to him for any of the three calendar years prior to the date of termination (the “Severance Amount”). In addition, if, during the twenty-four month period following a change in control of the Company, Mr. Jones’ employment is terminated by him or the Company for any reason other than cause, then Mr. Jones will be entitled to severance compensation equal to the greater of (1) the Severance Amount and (2) an amount equal to (a) 3% of any positive amount determined by subtracting the market value of the Company based on a stock price of $6.125 per share from the actual market value of the Company at the date of the change in control, multiplied by (b) 0.6, with the maximum amount payable under this second calculation not to exceed $25 million.

Under the terms of his then effective employment agreement, in November 1995 Mr. Jones was granted options to acquire 1,440,000 shares of Common Stock. That employment agreement also set forth the terms of certain other stock options granted to him, and permitted him to borrow funds from the Company for the exercise of all such options and the payment of related taxes. All of these options have been exercised.

Jeffrey A. Allred. Pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, Mr. Allred’s base salary for 2002 was $500,000. He is also entitled to any additional compensation provided for by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company or its Compensation Committee. In addition to his base salary, Mr. Allred is entitled under his employment agreement to earn an annual bonus based on the Company achieving its quarterly and annual targets for revenue and EBITDA. Mr. Allred’s target bonus for each calendar year is equal to 100% of his base salary for such year, subject to a sliding scale, with 80% of the target bonus allocated to achievement of cumulative quarterly targets (20% per quarter) and 20% allocated to achievement of annual targets. His bonus is based two-thirds on achievement of EBITDA targets and one-third on achievement of revenue targets. The maximum amount of Mr. Allred’s bonus is 150% of his target bonus. Mr. Allred agreed to reduce his base salary for 2002 from $551,250 to $500,000, and to reduce his target bonus for 2002 from $551,250 to $150,000, in exchange for a grant of 100,750 shares of common stock of the Company in November 2001. Mr. Allred received a $72,000 cash bonus for 2002 based on the achievement of quarterly and annual targets.

The term of Mr. Allred’s employment agreement expires on January 1, 2005. Thereafter, it renews automatically for successive one-year terms unless either party elects not to renew at least 30 days prior to expiration of the term. Mr. Allred’s employment agreement provides that he will not compete with the Company during the term of his employment and for one year thereafter. The Company may terminate Mr. Allred’s employment only for cause. Notwithstanding such provision, if the Company terminates his employment without cause, either (1) before a change in control of the Company or (2) after the twenty-four month period following a change in control, Mr. Allred will be entitled to severance compensation equal to 2.99 times the greater of (a) the sum of his annual base salary in effect at the date of his termination plus his target bonus for the year in which his termination occurs, and (b) the sum of the highest annual base salary and annual cash bonus paid to him for any of the three calendar years prior to the date of termination (the “Severance Amount”). In addition, if, during the twenty-four month period following a change in control of the Company, Mr. Allred’s employment is terminated by him or the Company for any reason other than cause, then Mr. Allred will be entitled to severance compensation equal to the greater of (1) the Severance Amount and (2) an amount equal to (a) 3% of any positive amount determined by subtracting the market value of the Company based on a stock price of $6.125 per share from the actual market value of the Company at the date of the change in control, multiplied by (b) 0.4, with the maximum amount payable under this second calculation not to exceed $15 million.

91

As a material inducement to his employment by the Company, in July 1997 Mr. Allred was granted options to acquire 450,000 shares of Common Stock. All of these options were exchanged for shares of restricted stock pursuant to the restricted stock exchange program in 2001.

Richard J. Buyens. Mr. Buyens has accepted a written offer of employment from the Company. Pursuant to the terms of his employment letter, Mr. Buyens is eligible for targeted aggregate cash compensation of $700,000 for each full calendar year of employment based on achievement of a Board approved plan and individually assigned management objectives, and he has the opportunity to earn up to an aggregate cash compensation of $875,000 per annum upon the over-achievement of all plan objectives. His arrangement provides for: (1) the payment of 50% of targeted compensation as base salary, (2) the payment of up to 50% of targeted compensation as targeted bonus compensation, and (3) the payment of up to an additional 25% of targeted compensation as incentive bonus. Mr. Buyens’ bonus plan allocates 80% of his target to achievement of cumulative quarterly targets (20% per quarter) and 20% allocated to the achievement of annual targets. His bonus is based two-thirds on achievement of EBITDA targets and one-third on achievement of revenue targets. In 2002, Mr. Buyers’ base salary was $350,000, and he received a $165,600 cash bonus based on the achievement of quarterly and annual targets.

Pursuant to his employment letter, the term of Mr. Buyens’ employment expires on January 1, 2005. Thereafter, it renews automatically for successive one-year terms unless either party elects not to renew at least 30 days prior to expiration of the term. If the Company terminates Mr. Buyens employment without cause, he will be entitled to severance compensation equal to one times the greater of (1) his targeted compensation for the year in which such termination occurs or (2) the highest amount of actual cash compensation (base salary and bonus) paid to him during the two years prior to the one in which he is terminated. If, during the two-year period following a change in control of the Company, Mr. Buyens’ employment is terminated by him or the Company for any reason other than cause, then Mr. Buyens will be entitled to severance compensation equal to two times the greater of (1) his targeted compensation for the year in which the change in control occurs or (2) the highest actual cash compensation (base salary and bonus) paid to him for any of the two years preceding the year in which the change in control occurs. Mr. Buyens’ employment letter also provides that he will be granted options to purchase at least 750,000 shares of Common Stock. He was granted options to purchase 500,000 shares of Common Stock in August 2001 and 250,000 shares in January 2002.

Patrick G. Jones. Pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, Mr. Jones’ base salary for 2002 was $393,750. The term of Mr. Jones’ employment agreement expires on January 1, 2005. Thereafter, it renews automatically for successive one-year terms unless either party elects not to renew at least 30 days prior to expiration of the term. Mr. Jones’ employment agreement provides that he will not compete with the Company during the term of his employment and for one year thereafter. The Company may terminate Mr. Jones’ employment only for cause. Notwithstanding such provision, if his employment is terminated without cause, Mr. Jones will be entitled to severance compensation equal to two and one-half times his base annual salary plus target bonus in effect on the date of termination. In addition, if, during the two-year period following a change in control of the Company, Mr. Jones’ employment is terminated by him or the Company for any reason other than cause, then Mr. Jones is entitled to severance compensation equal to two and one-half times his base annual salary plus target bonus in effect on the date of termination. In 2002 Mr. Jones was eligible to receive bonus compensation equal to $49,000, based on the achievement of quarterly and annual targets for revenue and EBITDA of the Company, which was subject to increase if such targets were exceeded. Mr. Jones received a $13,475 cash bonus for 2002 based on the achievement of annual targets.

As a material inducement to his employment by the Company, in November 1995 Mr. Jones was granted options to acquire 240,000 shares of Common Stock. Mr. Jones’ employment agreement permits him to borrow funds from the Company for the exercise of such options.

Theodore P. Schrafft. Pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement with Premiere Conferencing, Mr. Scrafft’s base salary for 2002 was $306,000. The term of Mr. Schrafft’s employment agreement expires on December 31, 2003. Thereafter, it renews automatically for successive one-year terms unless either party elects not

92

to renew at least 90 days prior to expiration of the term. Mr. Schrafft’s employment agreement provides that he will not compete with Premiere Conferencing or any of its affiliates during the term of his employment and for one year thereafter. Premiere Conferencing may terminate Mr. Schrafft’s employment for cause. If his employment is terminated without cause either before a change in control of Premiere Conferencing or more than twenty-four months after such a change in control, Mr. Schrafft will be entitled to severance compensation equal to his base annual salary in effect on the date of termination. In addition, if, during the twenty-four month period following a change in control of Premiere Conferencing, Mr. Schrafft’s employment is terminated by him with adequate justification or by Premiere Conferencing for any reason other than cause, then Mr. Schrafft is entitled to severance compensation equal to two times his base annual salary in effect on the date of termination. In 2002, Mr. Schrafft was eligible to receive bonus compensation equal to $74,000, based on the achievement of quarterly and annual targets for revenue and EBITDA of Premiere Conferencing, which was subject to increase if such targets were exceeded. Mr. Schrafft received a $45,000 discretionary cash bonus for 2002.

Indemnification Agreements

In addition to any other indemnity to which a director or Named Executive Officer may be entitled under the Georgia Business Corporation Code or any Bylaw, resolution or agreement, the Company has entered into separate indemnification agreements with each of its directors and Named Executive Officers. The Company has agreed to hold harmless and indemnify each director and Named Executive Officer against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement incurred by the director or Named Executive Officer in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding to which the director or Named Executive Officer is, was or at any time becomes a party, or is threatened to be made a party, by reason of the fact that the director or Named Executive Officer is, was, or at any time becomes a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company. However, the Company shall not pay any indemnity with respect to any proceeding in which the director or Named Executive Office is adjudged, by final judgment not subject to further appeal, liable to the Company or is subjected to injunctive relief in favor of the Company (i) for any appropriation, in violation of the director’s or Named Executive Officer’s duties, of any business opportunity of the Company, (ii) for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for any transaction from which the director or Named Executive Officer received an improper personal benefit, and (iv) in the case of directors, for unlawful corporate distributions. In addition, the Company shall not pay any indemnity with respect to any suit in which final judgment is rendered against the director or Named Executive Officer for an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale of securities of the Company.

No amendment to the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company or any other corporate action shall in any way limit any director’s or Named Executive Officer’s rights under his respective indemnification agreement. The Company believes that the above protections are necessary in order to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

In addition, the Company agreed to maintain an insurance policy covering directors and Named Executive officers under which the insurer agrees to pay, subject to certain exclusions, certain claims made against the directors and Named Executive officers of the Company in their capacities as directors and Named Executive officers.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During 2002, George W. Baker, Sr. and J. Walker Smith, Jr. served on the Compensation Committee the entire year; Jeffrey M. Cunningham served from January until June; and Randolph L. Booth served from June until December. None of these directors has ever been an employee of the Company. Mr. Baker is Boland T. Jones’ father-in-law.

Report of the Compensation Committee and the 1995 Stock Plan Committee of the Board of Directors

Introduction

The Compensation Committee is responsible for setting and approving the compensation arrangements for the Company’s executive officers, and the 1995 Stock Plan Committee is responsible for determining and administering option grants to executive officers and other employees under the 1995 Stock Plan. From January to June 2002, the members of the Compensation Committee were Messrs. Smith, Baker and Cunningham; from June 2002 until October 2002, when Mr. Baker resigned from the Committee, the members of the Compensation Committee were Messrs. Smith, Baker and Booth; and for the remainder of 2002 the members of the Compensation Committee were Messrs. Smith and Booth. During 2002, the members of the 1995 Stock Plan Committee were Messrs. Smith and Baker. The Compensation Committee and the 1995 Stock Plan Committee each currently comprises J. Walker Smith, Jr. (Chair) and Raymond H. Pirtle, Jr. Mr. Pirtle joined the Compensation Committee and the 1995 Stock Plan Committee in April 2003 when Messrs. Booth and Baker resigned from the Board of Directors.

The Company’s executive compensation policy, as implemented by the Compensation Committee and the 1995 Stock Plan Committee, is designed to provide a competitive compensation program that will enable the Company to attract, motivate, reward and retain executives who have the skills, experience and talents required to promote the short- and long-term financial performance and growth of the Company.

Generally, in establishing levels of compensation for executive officers, the Compensation Committee and the 1995 Stock Plan Committee consider all factors they deem appropriate, which may include, among others:

• level and scope of responsibilities;

• pay levels of executive officers in comparable companies;

• experience, achievements and special expertise;

• achievement of specific business initiatives;

• appropriate inducements to initial and continued employment;

• the Company’s recent financial results compared to financial results for prior years and compared to the Company’s business plan; and

• alignment of the interests of executive officers with those of shareholders through award opportunities that can result in ownership of Common Stock.

While some or all of these factors may be considered in a given circumstance, all compensation decisions involve subjectivity.

The Company has an employment agreement or employment letter with the following Named Executive Officers — Boland T. Jones, Jeffrey A. Allred, Richard J. Buyens, Patrick G. Jones and Theodore P. Schrafft. See “Employment Agreements” above. These employment agreements or letter contain the general terms of each such executive officer’s employment and establish the minimum compensation that such officers are entitled to receive, but do not prohibit, limit or restrict these officers’ ability to receive additional compensation from the Company, whether in the form of base salary, bonus, stock options or otherwise.

94

The total compensation of the executive officers of the Company can be divided into three components: base salary, annual incentive compensation and long-term incentive compensation. The following is a summary of the considerations underlying each component of compensation.

Base Salaries

The base salaries of the executive officers are initially determined pursuant to their employment agreements, which generally provide for an automatic five percent increase each year. The employments agreements and employment letter for the Named Executive Officers provide for such increases. Initial salary levels are determined based on the factors discussed above and the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer for salaries other than his own; however, the Compensation Committee retains the discretion to increase the initial salary levels. The Compensation Committee periodically evaluates the salaries of the executive officers based upon the level and scope of the responsibilities of the office, prior experience and achievements, the importance of each executive’s contributions to the Company and the pay levels of similarly positioned executive officers in comparable companies.

Annual Incentive Compensation

The Company’s executive officers are eligible to receive cash bonus awards. The key components in determining the amount of such awards include the individual growth and success of the Company as measured by revenue growth, cash flows and other financial performance goals, including EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), as well as the financial performance of the Company in the context of the overall industry and economic environment. The judgment of the Compensation Committee, and of the Chief Executive Officer in the case of other executive officers, as to the impact of the individual on the financial performance of the Company are also considered.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

Grants of stock options and restricted stock to executive officers are generally made under the 1995 Stock Plan administered by the 1995 Stock Plan Committee. That Committee believes that it is desirable to increase management’s equity ownership in the Company in order to focus management’s effort and commitment to build profitability and shareholder value, and that the grant of stock options and restricted stock has been a particularly important component of its success in attracting and retaining talented management employees. The 1995 Stock Plan Committee believes that stock options and restricted stock give the executive officers greater incentives to operate the Company in a manner that benefits the financial interests of the shareholders both on a long-term and short-term basis.

In determining the number of option shares and shares of restricted stock to grant executive officers, the 1995 Stock Plan Committee considers on a subjective basis the same factors as the Compensation Committee does in determining the other components of compensation, with no single factor accorded special weight. The recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer is important in determining awards to persons other than himself.

In light of restricted stock awards made late in 2001 and the completion of the option exchange program in December 2001, no awards of restricted stock were made to the Named Executive Officers in 2002. Mr. Buyens was granted stock options in connection with his employment, but no other options were granted to the Named Executive Officers in 2002.

Loan Forgiveness

As described in the report of the Compensation Committee in the Company’s 2002 Proxy Statement, the Company made certain loans to Messrs. Boland Jones and Allred to cover the tax liability associated with equity grants made in prior years. Those loans were later forgiven, and the Company made additional payments to the executives to cover the taxes related to such forgiveness of debt. A portion of that forgiveness of debt is reflected in the Summary Compensation Table as Other Annual Compensation received in 2002. See “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.”

Policy on Deductibility of Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Code disallows the deduction for certain annual compensation in excess of $1,000,000 paid to certain executive officers of the Company, unless the compensation qualifies as “performance-based” as defined in the Code and applicable regulations. The 1995 Stock Plan permits the grant of stock options

95

and other awards that are fully deductible under Code Section 162(m). All stock options that have been granted under the 1995 Stock Plan are fully deductible, but restricted stock awards that have been granted under the 1995 Plan are subject to the Code Section 162(m) deduction limitation. The Compensation Committee and the 1995 Stock Plan Committee intend to maximize the deductibility of executive compensation while retaining the discretion necessary to compensate executive officers in a manner commensurate with performance and the competitive market for executive talent.

Chief Executive Officer Compensation

Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Boland Jones would have been entitled to a base salary in 2002 of $826,875 and a target annual bonus opportunity equal to 100% of his base salary, based on the Company achieving its quarterly and annual targets for revenue and EBITDA. Mr. Jones agreed to reduce his base salary for 2002 from $826,875 to $750,000, and to reduce his target bonus for 2002 from $826,875 to $200,000, in exchange for a grant of 156,125 shares of common stock of the Company in November 2001. The target annual bonus was subject to a sliding scale, with 80% of the target bonus allocated to achievement of cumulative quarterly targets (20% per quarter) and 20% allocated to achievement of annual targets. Mr. Jones’ 2002 bonus was based two-thirds on achievement of EBITDA targets and one-third on achievement of revenue targets. He received a $96,000 cash bonus for 2002 based on the achievement of quarterly and annual targets for EBITDA and revenue. As indicated above, in light of restricted stock awards made late in 2001 and the completion of the option exchange program in December 2001, no awards of restricted stock or options were made to Mr. Jones in 2002.

The foregoing report has been submitted by the following current and former members of the Compensation Committee and 1995 Stock Plan Committee who participated in the deliberations described above:

On November 29, 2001, the Company offered a restricted stock exchange program to its employees and directors, whereby the Company offered to purchase certain outstanding stock options which had an exercise price of more than $3.00 per share in exchange for restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exchange ratio of one share of restricted stock in exchange for each 2.5 options surrendered. On December 28, 2001, the exchange offer was completed. The restricted shares generally are subject to the same vesting schedules as the tendered options. Other than Mr. Buyens, each of the Company’s Named Executive Officers and four of its directors, Messrs. Baker, Pirtle and Arnold and Ms. Ward, participated in the program. The Company agreed to lend its directors and executive officers upon request the amount of taxes due with respect to the shares of restricted stock granted, with each such loan evidenced by a 10-year recourse promissory note bearing interest at the applicable Federal rate, and secured by the restricted stock. The following executive officers and directors exchanged stock options for restricted shares of the Company’s common stock as set forth below:

	Total Options Held Before Exchange	Number of Options Exchanged		Number of Shares Received in Exchange	Total Shares Held After Exchange(1)	% of Shares Received in the Exchange to Total Shares Held

Also, in November 2001, Messrs. Boland Jones, Allred, Buyens, Patrick Jones and Schrafft were granted 156,125; 100,750; 1,000; 39,345; and 14,750 shares of restricted stock of the Company, respectively, which vested on November 28, 2001. In addition, in November 2001, Messrs. Boland Jones and Allred were granted 280,000 and 80,000 shares of restricted stock, respectively, that vest on January 1, 2005, subject to accelerated vesting in the event of a change in control or termination of their employment without cause. These shares were granted in replacement of stock options that the 1995 Stock Plan Committee had intended to grant to Messrs. Boland Jones and Allred in 2000, but were unable to do so due to certain annual grant limits in the 1995 Stock Plan. In November 2001, Mr. Allred was also granted 600,000 shares of restricted stock, of which 240,000 shares vested on November 28, 2001 and 30,000 shares vest per quarter starting on March 31, 2002 and ending on December 31, 2004, subject to accelerated vesting upon a change in control of the Company or termination of Mr. Allred’s employment without cause. The Company has agreed to lend to Messrs. Boland Jones, Allred, Buyens, Patrick Jones and Schrafft upon request the amount of taxes due with respect to the shares of restricted stock granted, with each such loan to be evidenced by a 10-year recourse promissory note bearing interest at the applicable Federal rate, and secured by the restricted stock.

The total amount of all outstanding loans that are greater than $60,000 to the Company’s directors and Named Executive Officers related to taxes on restricted shares as of December 31, 2002, including accrued interest, and the material terms of such loans were:

* Separate loans are secured by the same shares of Company Common Stock. The value of such shares is only included once to determine the total value of collateral per Named Executive Officer.

The Company is obligated, pursuant to extensions of credit agreed to by the issuer prior to July 30, 2002, to make additional loans to pay taxes associated with the future vesting of the restricted shares described above under the same terms as the existing loans, but the dollar amount of such loans will be based on the fair market value of the Company Common Stock on the vesting date and cannot be calculated at this time.

In March 2002, the Board of Directors approved an arrangement with Jeffrey M. Cunningham pursuant to which he became Vice Chairman, a non-employee position, and in such position he provides services to the

103

Company with respect to customer development, business development and strategic planning. In connection therewith, the Company granted to Mr. Cunningham an option to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.08, which was the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. These options vest and become exercisable five years after the date of grant provided that Mr. Cunningham is a member of the Board on that date, subject to accelerated vesting in the event certain revenue targets are achieved or in the event of a change in control of the Company. In addition, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Cunningham a maximum of $200,000 in cash compensation over the five-year term of the agreement, payable $10,000 per month for the first twelve months of the agreement and up to $80,000 at any time during the five-year term if certain revenue targets are achieved. Mr. Cunningham received a total of $90,000 in 2002 under the monthly payment arrangement. The agreement expires March 5, 2007 unless earlier terminated by the parties.

During 2002, a subsidiary of the Company leased the use of an airplane from Prado Aviation, LLC, a limited liability company that is owned 99% by Boland T. Jones and one percent by Premiere Communications, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company. In connection with this lease arrangement, the Company incurred costs of $1.9 million in 2002 to maintain and operate the airplane. The terms of the lease arrangement were based on an informal review of rates for similar types of airplanes, and the Company believes that the rates it paid for the use of the airplane were comparable to what it would have received from an independent third party.
