ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On December 21, 2007, NMS Communications Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“NMS”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Verso Technologies, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“Verso”), dated December 20, 2007, to sell NMS’s Network Infrastructure (“NI”) division to Verso (the “Transaction”).  The closing of the Transaction occurred on December 21, 2007 (the “Closing Date”).  Under the terms of the Agreement,Verso acquired the NI division and certain assets and liabilities of the NI division for consideration of $850,000 of cash and $2,500,000 of Verso common stock.  Based on the terms of the Agreement, each such share of Verso common stock was valued at $0.4652, which is the volume weighted arithmetic average of the daily closing price per share of the Verso common stock for each of the twenty (20) consecutive trading days ending (and including) the trading day that occurred one trading day prior to (and not including) the date of the Agreement.  As a result, the value of each share of Verso common stock resulted in Verso issuing to NMS 5,374,033 shares of Verso common stock on the Closing Date.  The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of NMS and Verso.

The foregoing description of the Transaction does not purport to be a complete statement of the parties’ rights under the Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 2.9 and incorporated by reference herein.

On December 24, 2007, NMS issued a press release announcing the closing of the Transaction. This press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

ITEM 2.01 – COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

Sale of the NI Division

On December 21, 2007, NMS disposed of certain assets and liabilities related to its NI Division.  The information set forth in Item 1.01 above with respect to the Transaction is incorporated herein in its entirety.

The Company’s unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements giving effect to the completion of the Transaction are attached as Exhibit 99.1.

ITEM 9.01 – FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, PRO FORMA INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS

(b)     Pro Forma Financial Information

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements

The first paragraph of Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference herein.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet of NMS reflects the disposition of NI as if it had occurred on September 30, 2007. The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, reflect the disposition of the NI business as if the sale had occurred on January 1, 2004. The pro forma adjustments are based on the operations of NI during the periods presented and the impact from the sale of the NI business and other transactions associated with the disposition. These adjustments have been made to illustrate the anticipated financial effect of the sale of the NI business and are based on presently available information. Management believes that the assumptions used to derive the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are reasonable under the circumstances and given the information available. Consequently, the pro forma financial information presented is not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been reported had the transactions actually occurred on the dates specified.

The final accounting for the disposition of the NI business is still under review by management and will be finalized prior to the filing of NMS’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2007. Effective in the fourth quarter of 2007, NMS will classify the assets and liabilities of NI as discontinued operations and report the results of operations for NI as discontinued operations in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” The pro forma condensed combined balance sheet related to the sale of the NI business is based on the net book value of net assets sold as of September 30, 2007 pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. Accordingly, NMS’s actual recording of the disposition, including the final sale price, gains or losses, or income taxes thereon, may differ from the pro forma financial information. The pro forma financial information does not purport to indicate the future financial position or future results of NMS’s operations. The unaudited pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction with the separate historical financial statements and footnotes of NMS included in Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2006, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2007.

The following unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial statements are included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference:

(e)As of and from the Closing Date, Seller on behalf of itself and its Affiliates authorizes Buyer, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and the terms of the Nonassignable Assets, at Buyer’s expense, to perform all the obligations and receive all the benefits of Seller or its Affiliates under the Nonassignable Assets and appoints Buyer its attorney-in-fact to act in its name on its behalf or in the name of the applicable Affiliate of Seller and on such Affiliate’s behalf with respect thereto.

In partial consideration for the sale of the Purchased Business as contemplated hereby, Buyer grants to Seller, subject to the Closing and effective as of the Closing Date, a fully paid-up, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, reproduce, execute, perform, distribute and display the Assigned Intellectual Property in connection with the manufacture, sale, support, licensing or distribution of the products or services of Seller which used the Assigned Intellectual Property prior to the Closing Date to the same extent, and only to the same extent, to which the Assigned Intellectual Property was used in such products or services by Seller prior to such date; provided, however, that in no event shall such license be used for or in connection with the manufacture, sale, support, licensing or distribution of wireless backhaul optimizer products or be used in connection with any business conducted or operated by Seller or any of its Affiliates that competes or would compete with the Purchased Business as conducted on the Closing Date.

5.Certain Covenants

5.1Access and Information

(a)After the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall provide, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to provide, to each other and to their respective officers, employees, accountants, counsel and other representatives, upon request (subject to any limitations that are reasonably required to preserve any applicable attorney-client privilege or legal or contractual Third-Party confidentiality obligation), reasonable access for inspection and copying of all Business Records, Governmental Permits, Licenses, Contracts and any other information existing as of the Closing Date and relating to the Purchased Business, the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Transferred Employees and shall make their respective personnel reasonably available for interviews, depositions and testimony in any legal matter concerning transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the operations or activities relating to the Purchased Business, the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Transferred Employees as may be necessary or desirable to enable the party requesting such assistance to: (i) comply with any reporting, filing or other requirements imposed by any Governmental Body; (ii) assert or defend any claims or allegations in any litigation or arbitration or in any administrative or legal proceeding other than claims or allegations that one party to this Agreement has asserted against the other; or (iii) subject to clause (ii) above, perform its obligations under this Agreement.  The party requesting such information or assistance shall reimburse the other party for all reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket costs and expenses, if any, incurred by such party in providing such information and in rendering such assistance.  The access to files, books and records contemplated by this Section 5.1(a) shall be during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice and shall be subject to such reasonable limitations as the party having custody or control thereof may impose to preserve the confidentiality of information contained therein.

(b)Buyer agrees to preserve all Business Records, Licenses and Governmental Permits in accordance with its corporate policies related to preservation of records.  Buyer further agrees that, to the extent Business Records, Licenses or Governmental

36

Permits are placed in storage, they will be kept in such a manner as to make individual document retrieval possible in an expeditious manner.

5.2[Reserved].

5.3Tax Reporting and Allocation of Consideration.

(a)Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that (i) Seller will be responsible for and will perform all Tax withholding, payment and reporting duties with respect to any wages and other compensation paid by Seller or a Subsidiary to any Business Employee, and (ii) Buyer will be responsible for and will perform all Tax withholding, payment and reporting duties with respect to any wages and other compensation paid by Buyer or a Buyer Designee to any Transferred Employee.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph is intended to modify or adjust the substantive liability of Buyer and Seller under this Agreement with respect to the Taxes described in this paragraph.

(b)Seller and Buyer recognize their mutual obligations pursuant to Section 1060 of the Code to timely file IRS Form 8594 (the “Asset Acquisition Statement”) with their respective federal income tax returns.  Accordingly, Seller and Buyer shall, no later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, attempt in good faith to (i) enter into a Purchase Price allocation agreement providing for the allocation of the Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets consistent with the provisions of Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder and (ii) cooperate in the preparation of the Asset Acquisition Statement in accordance with clause (i) for timely filing with their respective federal income tax returns; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.3(b) shall be deemed to obligate either Seller or Buyer to agree on such allocation or Asset Acquisition Statement.  If Seller and Buyer shall have agreed on a Purchase Price allocation and an Asset Acquisition Statement, then Seller and Buyer shall file the Asset Acquisition Statement in the form so agreed and neither Seller nor Buyer shall take a Tax position which is inconsistent with such Purchase Price allocation, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

5.4Business Employees

(a)As of the Closing Date, notwithstanding the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, Buyer intends to make offers of employment to the Business Employees listed on Schedule 5.4(a) (including those absent due to vacation, holiday, illness, leave of absence or short-term disability, but excluding any Business Employee on long-term disability).  Seller and any applicable Subsidiary shall cooperate and assist in facilitating Buyer’s or a Buyer Designee’s offers and will not take any action, or cause any of the Subsidiaries to take any action, which would impede, hinder, interfere or otherwise compete with Buyer’s or a Buyer Designee’s effort to hire any Business Employees.  Promptly after the date hereof, Seller will provide to Buyer all information not provided in Schedule 5.4(a) required to be disclosed by applicable Law of the jurisdiction in which the Business Employee is located in connection with the sale of the Purchased Business.  Without limiting the foregoing, each Party shall comply with all applicable Laws in connection with the transfer of the Business Employees to Buyer or a Buyer Designee, including with respect to notice, consultation and other procedural requirements.  Business Employees who accept Buyer’s offer of employment, as of the effective date of their

37

employment with Buyer, shall be referred to as “Transferred Employees.” Employment with Buyer or a Buyer Designee of Transferred Employees shall be effective as of the day following the close of business on the Closing Date, except that the employment of individuals receiving short-term disability benefits or on approved leave of absence on the Closing Date will become effective as of the date they present themselves for work with Buyer or a Buyer Designee or such other date as is prescribed by applicable Law.

(b)Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee will comply with applicable Law regarding terms of employment of Transferred Employees.  Buyer or a Buyer Designee shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to Transferred Employees employee benefits that, in the aggregate, are no less favorable than those provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee, provided, that Buyer shall have no obligation to provide compensation in the form of equity incentives to the Transferred Employees and provided further that prior service with NMS shall be included as service with Buyer or Buyer Designee for such employee benefits.  For sake of clarification, except where required by applicable Law and subject to appropriate arrangements between Buyer and Seller with respect to the liabilities associated with respect to such plans, including the transfer of any funds associated therewith, Buyer is not assuming any Pension Plan liabilities or offering any Pension Plan benefits.

(c)Seller shall terminate the Transferred Employees immediately before and as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that the employment of the Transferred Employees listed on Schedule 5.4(a) who reside in Canada shall not be terminated by Seller but shall be transferred to Buyer effective as of the Closing.

(d)Buyer agrees that its and its Affiliate’s health and Welfare Plans shall waive, to the extent permitted by such plans, any pre-existing condition exclusion (to the extent such exclusion was waived under applicable health and Welfare Plans offered to the Transferred Employees by Seller or a Subsidiary) and any proof of insurability.  Seller or the applicable Subsidiary shall remain responsible for any benefits payable under a Benefit Plan with respect to claims incurred by Business Employees prior to or on the Closing Date.

(e)The parties agree to cooperate in good faith to determine whether any notification may be required under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (the “WARN Act”) as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Seller will be responsible for providing any notification that may be required under the WARN Act with respect to any of its employees and for satisfying any liability arising under the WARN Act as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.  Buyer will be responsible for providing any notification that may be required under the WARN Act with respect to any Transferred Employees terminated after the Closing Date.

(f)Nothing in this Agreement shall require Buyer or a Buyer Designee to employ any Business Employees, to employ any Transferred Employee on anything other than an at-will basis, terminable at any time with or without cause, or to assume any collective bargaining agreements under this Agreement.

38

(g)This Section 5.4 specifies the full extent of Buyer’s obligation with respect to the Transferred Employees after the Closing Date, except as may be required by applicable Law.

5.5[Reserved].

5.6Regulatory Compliance; Post-Closing Cooperation.  Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties agrees to use its reasonable commercial efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including using reasonable commercial efforts to accomplish the following: (i) the obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents and approvals from Governmental Bodies and the making of all necessary registrations and filings (including filings with Governmental Bodies, if any) and the taking of all steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval or waiver from, or to avoid an action or proceeding by any Governmental Body, (ii) the obtaining of all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties, including all Required Consents, and (iii) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by, and to fully carry out the purposes of, this Agreement and the Collateral Agreements.

5.7Contacts with Suppliers and Customers; Transfer of Information.

(a)Seller and Buyer agree to cooperate to prepare a communications plan for business partners of the AccessGate Products Group, and in contacting any suppliers to, or customers of, the Purchased Business in connection with or pertaining to any subject matter of this Agreement or the Collateral Agreements and to facilitate the transition of the Purchased Business, including the preparation of letters to all customers, suppliers, distributors and other business partners of the Purchased Business to notify them of the Closing and provide information regarding the transition of the Purchased Business to Buyer.

(b)Buyer and Seller will cooperate to determine a protocol for the transfer of customer-related Information of the Purchased Business prior to the Closing Date as permitted by applicable Law to permit Buyer to receive, confirm and fill customer purchase orders, send and process invoices immediately after the Closing Date.

5.8Use of the Seller Name

(a)Buyer and Seller agree as follows:

(i)Except as provided below, immediately after the Closing Date, Buyer and any Buyer Designee shall cease using “NMS,” or “NMS Corporation” or other similar mark (the “Seller Name”) and any other trademark, design or logo previously or currently used by Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than those that are transferred pursuant to the Intellectual Property Agreement or licensed pursuant to the License Agreement) in all invoices, letterhead, advertising and promotional materials, office forms or business cards;

39

(ii)Except as provided below, within three (3) months after the Closing Date, Buyer shall (A) remove any other trademark, design or logo previously or currently used by Seller or any of its Affiliates from all buildings and signs of the Purchased Business; and (B) cease using the Seller Name and any other trademark, design or logo previously or currently used by Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than those that are transferred pursuant to the Intellectual Property Agreement or licensed pursuant to the License Agreement) in electronic databases, web sites, product instructions, packaging (except as provided below) and other materials, printed or otherwise.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer and Buyer Designees shall not be restricted in using any packaging materials that are in inventory as of the Closing Date;

(iii)Buyer and Buyer Designees shall not be required at any time to remove the Seller Name and any other trademark, design or logo previously or currently used by Seller or any of its Affiliates from inventory of the Purchased Business that is in existence as of the Closing Date, nor shall Buyer nor Buyer Designees be required at any time to remove such Seller Name and any such other trademark, design or logo from schematics, plans, manuals, drawings, machinery, tooling including hand tools, and the like of the Purchased Business in existence as of the Closing Date to the extent that such instrumentalities are used in the ordinary internal conduct of the Purchased Business and are neither generally observed by the public nor intended for use as means to effectuate or enhance sales;

(iv)Notwithstanding the above, Buyer and Buyer Designees shall have the right to sell existing inventory and to use existing packaging, labeling, containers, supplies, advertising materials, technical data sheets and any similar materials bearing the Seller Name or any other trademark, design or logo previously or currently used by Seller or any of its Affiliates until the earlier of (A) one year after the Closing Date or (B) the depletion of existing inventory;

(v)Buyer and Buyer Designees shall use Reasonable Efforts (as defined below) to remove the Seller Name and any other trademark, design or logo previously or currently used by Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than those that are transferred pursuant to the Intellectual Property Agreement or licensed pursuant to the License Agreement) from those assets of the Purchased Business (such as, but not limited to, tools, molds, and machines) used in association with the products of the Purchased Business or otherwise reasonably used in the conduct of the Purchased Business after the Closing.  For the purposes of this Section 5.8(a)(v), “Reasonable Efforts” means Buyer and Buyer Designees shall remove the Seller Name from such assets but only at such time when such asset is not operated or otherwise is taken out of service in the normal course of business due to regular maintenance or repair (but only for such repairs or maintenance where such removal could normally be undertaken, for example, repair or maintenance of a mold cavity) whichever occurs first; provided that, in no event shall Buyer or any Buyer Designee use the Seller Name after the date which is six (6) months from the Closing Date.  Buyer and Buyer Designees shall not be required to perform such removal on such assets that are not or are no longer used to manufacture the products of the Purchased Business or other parts, or if discontinuance of use of such assets is reasonably anticipated during such time period, or from assets stored during that period provided that such marks are removed upon such asset’s return to service or prior to their sale or other disposition.

40

(vi)Seller hereby grants to Buyer and Buyer Designees a limited right to use the Seller Name and associated trademarks, designs and logos as specified in, and during the periods, if any, specified in clauses (i) — (v) above.

(vii)Buyer and its Affiliates shall also have the right to use (in a factual manner that constitute fair use pursuant to applicable Law) the Seller Name solely to the extent necessary to communicate that the Products were formerly owned by Seller.

(b)In no event shall Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer advertise or hold itself out as NMS or an Affiliate of NMS after the Closing Date.

5.9Non-Solicitation or Hiring of Transferred Employees.  None of Seller, any of its representatives or any of its Affiliates will at any time prior to the date which is one year after the date hereof, directly or indirectly, solicit the employment of or hire any Transferred Employee without Buyer’s prior written consent.  Neither Buyer nor any Buyer Designee will at any prior to the date which is one year after the date hereof, directly or indirectly, solicit the employment of or hire any employee of Seller or Seller Affiliate (other than Transferred Employees) without Seller’s prior written consent.  The term “solicit the employment” shall not be deemed to include generalized searches for employees through media advertisements, employment firms or otherwise that are not focused on or directed to Transferred Employees.  This restriction shall not apply to any employee whose employment is involuntarily terminated other than for cause by Buyer, or its successors, after the Closing, or Seller or Seller Affiliate, as the case may be, during such one-year period.

5.10[Reserved.]

5.11Non-Competition

(a)Seller agrees that, as part of the consideration for the payment of the Purchase Price, for a period of two (2) years immediately following the Closing Date, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates will, directly or indirectly, as a principal, stockholder, joint venturer, or otherwise, operate, perform or have any ownership interest in any business that conducts or operates a RAN optimization business anywhere in the Restricted Territory (a “RAN Optimization Business”) , except that Seller or any Seller Affiliate may invest as a minority shareholder in any Person.  For the purposes of this Section 5.11(a), ownership of securities of a company whose securities are publicly traded under a recognized securities exchange not in excess of ten percent (10%) of any class of such securities shall not be considered to be competition with a RAN Optimization Business.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the agreements and limitations set forth in this Section 5.11 shall not apply to any Person that acquires by means of merger, purchase of assets or stock or otherwise all or part of Seller or any Affiliate of Seller in any transaction.

(b)Seller acknowledges that the restrictions set forth in Section 5.11(a) constitute a material inducement to Buyer’s entering into and performing this Agreement.  Seller further acknowledges, stipulates and agrees that a breach of such obligation could result in irreparable harm and continuing damage to Buyer for which there may be no adequate remedy at

41

Law and further agrees that in the event of any breach of said obligation, Buyer may be entitled to injunctive relief and to such other relief as is proper under the circumstances.

(c)If any provision contained in this Section shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Section 5.11, but this Section 5.11 shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.  It is the intention of the parties that if any of the restrictions or covenants contained herein is held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time which is not permitted by applicable Law, or in any way construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such provision shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but to the extent such provision would be valid or enforceable under applicable Law, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret or reform this Section 5.11 to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained herein) as shall be valid and enforceable under such applicable Law.

5.12Post Closing Remittances.  If on or after the Closing Date, either Party receives a payment from a Third Party (including a customer of the Business) that, pursuant to the terms hereof, should have been paid to the other Party, the Party who receives the payment agrees to hold in trust and remit such payment to the Party entitled thereto within five (5) Business Days of such receipt.

5.13Prorations and Adjustments

(a)Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all ordinary course expenses for (i) rents and other charges or amounts payable included in the Purchased Assets and transferred to Buyer hereunder and (ii) gas, electricity, water, sewer, rent and telephone charges at the Leased Premises, in each case, for the period prior to the Closing Date, will be for the account of Seller and for the period on and after the Closing Date shall be for the account of Buyer.  If any Party actually makes any payments that are, in whole or in part, designated as payments for the period allocated to the other Party under this Section 5.13, such other Party shall promptly reimburse such amounts to the Party so making such payments.

(b)For purposes of calculating prorations, Buyer shall be deemed to own the Purchased Assets, and, therefore be responsible for the expense thereof, as of 12:01 a.m. local time on the day after the Closing Date.  All prorations shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days of the month that shall have elapsed as of the Closing Date and based upon a 365-day year.  The amount of the prorations shall be subject to adjustment after the Closing, as and when complete and accurate information becomes available, and the Parties agree to cooperate and use their good faith efforts to make such adjustments.

5.14Post-Closing Warranty Arrangements.  Buyer or Buyer Designee shall satisfy all warranty obligations of the Purchased Business for Products sold by the AccessGate Products Group on or prior to the Closing Date and, in consideration therefor, Seller shall pay Buyer a warranty fee for providing such warranty service in an amount equal to the sum of (i) 120% of the cost of materials used and any Third Party services delivered in providing such warranty service plus (ii) the cost of Buyer’s labor in providing such warranty service at a rate of $190 and

42

$25.00 per hour, respectively; provided, however, that the warranty fee with respect to any Product serviced shall not exceed the replacement cost of such Product.  Upon providing warranty services as contemplated hereby, Buyer shall submit in writing to Seller one or more statements setting forth in reasonable detail such warranty services and the warranty fee therefor, and Seller shall pay such invoiced amounts due to Buyer, in full, no later than the 30 days after the date of such invoice.

5.15Financial Statements of the Business.

(a)On or before the date hereof, Seller shall have provided to Buyer and its accounting advisors such financial information related to the Purchased Business as Buyer has requested to enable it to determine whether Buyer is or would be required to include separate financial statements of the Purchased Business for any periods prior to Closing in the reports filed by Buyer with the SEC under the Exchange Act, or in a registration statement filed by Buyer with the SEC under the Securities Act, pursuant to Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X.  The information so provided has included or will include an internally prepared unaudited statement of revenues and direct operating expenses and a statement of acquired assets and liabilities as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the nine months ended September 30, 2007 (the “Financial Information”).  The Financial Information has been or will be certified by an officer of Seller that (i) the financial data reflected therein was derived from the books and records of Seller, (ii) the revenues of the Purchased Business reflected therein are presented on a basis consistent with GAAP and Seller’s standard accounting policies and procedures, and (iii) the costs reflected therein constitute the costs of Seller directly involved in and specifically identifiable to the revenue producing activity of the Purchased Business, as determined in the reasonable judgment of Seller and, as applicable, based on the allocation methodologies referenced in the notes to the Financial Information.

(b)Following delivery of the Financial Information to Buyer, Seller will provide to Buyer reasonable access to the records used by Seller, and Seller’s independent registered public accounting firm, will be available to address any questions of Buyer and Buyer’s accounting advisors pertaining to the Financial Information and the basis of preparation thereof.

(c)If Buyer, after consultation with its counsel, determines in good faith that Buyer is required to file the financial statements identified in this clause (c) with the SEC, Buyer shall promptly file with the SEC a request for the SEC’s concurrence with filing certain abbreviated financial statements (such financial statements to include audited statement of revenues and direct operating and an audited statement of acquired assets and liabilities) in lieu of the full financial statements otherwise required by Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X. Such abbreviated financial statements and such other information required by the SEC in response to the waiver letter are referred to herein as the “Audited Financial Statements.”  Seller shall as promptly as practicable (i) retain its independent auditors to provide to Buyer the Audited Financial Statements, and (ii) use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such auditors to consent to the inclusion of such financial statements in the Buyer’s filings with the SEC, including on Form 8-K (or any amendments thereto) or such other form reasonably determined by Buyer, including by providing such auditors with a reasonable and customary representation letter in connection therewith.  Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the

43

Audited Financial Statements and such auditor’s consent by no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the Closing and thereafter Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such auditors to deliver such consents to Buyer as Buyer may reasonably require in connection with its reporting and disclosure obligations under the Exchange Act and the Securities Act, such efforts to include providing such auditors with a reasonable and customary representation letter in connection therewith.  Buyer shall pay all of Seller’s reasonable costs incurred under this Section 5.15(c).  In the event that Buyer is required to comply with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, Seller will use its reasonable commercial efforts to assist Buyer and provide such financial information related to the Purchased Business as Buyer reasonably deems to be necessary to enable Buyer to comply with such regulation.

(d)In the event that the SEC makes any review or inquiry to Buyer with respect to financial information of the Purchased Business, including any such inquiry regarding audited financial statements of the Purchased Business as set forth in Section 5.15(a), or requires any such audited financial statements to be filed, as promptly as practicable after being notified by Buyer of such review or inquiry, Seller will provide such reasonable cooperation and assistance as may be required by Buyer in responding to such review, inquiry or requirement in a manner consistent with this Section 5.15.

6.Confidential Nature of Information

6.1Confidentiality Agreement.  Buyer agrees that the Confidentiality Agreement shall apply to (a) all documents, materials and other information that it shall have obtained regarding Seller or its Affiliates during the course of the negotiations leading to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (whether obtained before or after the date of this Agreement), any investigations made in connection therewith and the preparation of this Agreement and related documents and (b) all analyses, reports, compilations, evaluations and other materials prepared by Buyer or its counsel, accountants or financial advisors that contain or otherwise reflect or are based upon, in whole or in part, any of the provided information; provided, however, that subject to Section 6.2(a), the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate as of the Closing and shall be of no further force and effect thereafter with respect to information of Seller or its Affiliates the ownership of which is transferred to Buyer or a Buyer Designee.

6.2Seller’s Proprietary Information

(a)Except as provided in Section 6.2(b), after the Closing and for a period of five (5) years following the Closing Date, Buyer agrees that it will keep confidential all of Seller’s and its Affiliates’ Proprietary Information that is received from, or made available by, Seller in the course of the transactions contemplated hereby related to Seller’s business other than the Purchased Business, except for such Proprietary Information the ownership of which is transferred to Buyer or a Buyer Designee as part of the Purchased Assets.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Proprietary Information shall not be deemed confidential and Buyer shall have no obligation with respect to any such Proprietary Information that:

44

(i)at the time of disclosure was already known to Buyer other than as a result of this transaction, free of restriction as evidenced by documentation in Buyer’s possession;

(ii)is or becomes publicly known through publication, inspection of a product, or otherwise, and through no negligence or other wrongful act of Buyer;

(iii)is received by Buyer from a Third Party without similar restriction and without breach of any agreement;

(iv)to the extent it is independently developed by Buyer; or

(v)is, subject to Section 6.2(c), required to be disclosed under applicable Law or judicial process.

(c)If Buyer (or any of its Affiliates) is requested or required (by oral question, interrogatory, request for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Proprietary Information, Buyer will promptly notify Seller of such request or requirement and will cooperate with Seller such that Seller may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy.  If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Buyer (or any of its Affiliates) is in the opinion of Buyer’s counsel compelled to disclose the Proprietary Information or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other censure or penalty, Buyer (or its Affiliate) may disclose only so much of the Proprietary Information to the party compelling disclosure as is required by Law.  Buyer will exercise its (and will cause its Affiliates to exercise their) reasonable commercial efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Proprietary Information.

6.3Buyer’s Proprietary Information

(a)Except as provided in Section 6.3(b), after the Closing Date and for a period of five (5) years thereafter, Seller agrees that it will keep confidential all of Seller’s and its Affiliates’ Proprietary Information the ownership of which or exclusive use of which is transferred to Buyer as part of the Purchased Assets, including, for purposes of this Section 6.3, information about the Purchased Business’s business plans and strategies, marketing ideas and concepts, especially with respect to unannounced products and services, present and future product plans, pricing, volume estimates, financial data, product enhancement information, business plans, marketing plans, sales strategies, customer information (including customers’ applications and environments), market testing information, development plans, specifications, customer requirements, configurations, designs, plans, drawings, apparatus, sketches, software, hardware, data, prototypes, connecting requirements, other technical and business information, and information regarding Business Employees.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Proprietary Information regarding the Purchased Business shall not be deemed confidential and Seller shall have no obligation with respect to any such Proprietary Information that:

45

(i)is or becomes publicly known through publication, inspection of a product, or otherwise, and through no negligence or other wrongful act of Seller;

(ii)is received by Seller from a Third Party without similar restriction and without breach of any agreement; or

(iii)is, subject to Section 6.3(c), required to be disclosed under applicable Law or judicial process.

(c)If Seller (or any of its Affiliates) is requested or required (by oral question, interrogatory, request for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Proprietary Information regarding the Purchased Business, Seller will promptly notify Buyer of such request or requirement and will cooperate with Buyer such that Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy.  If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Seller (or any of its Affiliates) is in the opinion of Seller’s counsel compelled to disclose the Proprietary Information or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other censure or penalty, Seller (or its Affiliate) may disclose only so much of the Proprietary Information to the party compelling disclosure as is required by Law.  Seller will exercise its (and will cause its Affiliates to exercise their) reasonable commercial efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Proprietary Information.

(d)As requested by Buyer and at Buyer’s cost and expense after Closing, Seller agrees to assign any such confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement to Buyer or a Buyer Designee and if such agreement cannot be assigned, to enforce such agreements with Third Parties not assigned to Buyer or a Buyer Designee relating to Proprietary Information included in the Purchased Assets or the Purchased Business.

6.4Confidential Nature of Agreements.  Except to the extent that disclosure thereof is required under accounting, stock exchange or federal securities or labor relations Laws disclosure obligations, both parties agree that the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Collateral Agreements and all Schedule s, attachments and amendments hereto and thereto shall be considered Proprietary Information protected under this Article 6.  Notwithstanding anything in this Article 6 to the contrary, in the event that any such Proprietary Information is also subject to a limitation on disclosure or use contained in another written agreement between Buyer and Seller or either of their respective Affiliates that is more restrictive than the limitation contained in this Article 6, then the limitation in such agreement shall supersede this Article 6.

7.Closing.  At the Closing, the following transactions shall take place:

7.1Deliveries by Seller or the Subsidiaries.  On the Closing Date, Seller shall, or shall cause a Subsidiary to, execute and deliver to Buyer or a Buyer Designee the following:

(a)the Collateral Agreements;

(b)all consents, waivers or approvals, including the Required Consents identified by Buyer on Schedule 3.4(b), theretofore required to be obtained by Seller with respect to the sale of the Purchased Assets, or assignment of the Contracts listed on Schedule 2.1(f), or

46

the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Collateral Agreements;

(c)a certificate of an Assistant Secretary of Seller, dated the Closing Date, in customary form; and

(d)all such other bills of sale, assignments and other instruments of assignment, transfer or conveyance as Buyer or a Buyer Designee may reasonably request or as may be otherwise necessary to evidence and effect the sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance and delivery of the Purchased Assets to Buyer or a Buyer Designee or to put Buyer or a Buyer Designee in actual possession or control of the Purchased Assets; provided that all information (including documents) capable of electronic transmission will be transmitted to Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee in such manner, in which case such information shall not be transferred in any tangible form, and any inadvertent transfer of a tangible manifestation of such information shall promptly be returned to Seller or the applicable Selling Subsidiary upon discovery of Buyer’s or such Buyer Designee’s receipt thereof.

7.2Deliveries by Buyer or a Buyer Designee.  On the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause a Buyer Designee to, execute and deliver to Seller or a Subsidiary the following:

(a)the cash portion of the Purchase Price as set forth in Section 2.3(i);

(b)the Collateral Agreements;

(c)a certificate of an authorized signatory of Buyer, dated the Closing Date, in customary form; and

(d)all such other documents and instruments as Seller or a Subsidiary may reasonably request or as may be otherwise necessary or desirable to evidence and effect the assumption by Buyer or a Buyer Designee of the Assumed Liabilities.

7.3Closing Date.  The Closing shall take place at the offices of Goodwin Procter LLP, on the date hereof at 10:00 a.m. local time or at such other place or time or on such other date as Seller and Buyer may agree upon in writing (such date and time being referred to herein as the “Closing Date”).

7.4Contemporaneous Effectiveness.  All acts and deliveries prescribed by this Article 7, regardless of chronological sequence, will be deemed to occur contemporaneously and simultaneously on the occurrence of the last act or delivery, and none of such acts or deliveries will be effective until the last of the same has occurred.

8.[Reserved].

9.Status of Agreements.  The rights and obligations of Buyer and Seller under this Agreement shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

9.1Survival of Representations and Warranties.  The representations and warranties of Buyer and Seller contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing solely for

47

purposes of this Article 9 and such representations and warranties shall terminate at the close of business of Seller on the date that is fifteen (15) months after the Closing Date; provided, however, that (i) the representations and warranties in Section 3.13(b) shall terminate at the close of business of Seller on the date that is two (2) years after the Closing Date, (ii) the representations and warranties relating to Tax matters shall survive the Closing and shall terminate at the close of business of Seller on the 30th day following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to the Tax liabilities in question (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof), and (iii) the representations and warranties in Sections 3.3 and 4.2 with respect to authorization and Section 3.5(a) and (d) with respect to title and conveyance matters shall survive indefinitely.

9.2General Agreement to Indemnify

(a)Seller and Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other party hereto, and Affiliates thereof, and any director, officer, employee or agent of such other party or Affiliates thereof (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, investigations of Governmental Bodies, actions, suits, proceedings, liabilities, obligations, Taxes, assessments, losses, and damages (including special and consequential damages), amounts paid in settlement, interest, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending the foregoing) (collectively, “Losses”) incurred or suffered by any Indemnified Party that arise by reason of, or result from (i) subject to Section 9.1, any breach or any failure of any representation or warranty of such party contained in this Agreement to have been true when made and at and as of the Closing Date, or (ii) the breach by such party of any covenant or agreement of such party contained in this Agreement to the extent not waived by the other party.

(b)Seller further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and any Buyer Indemnified Party from and against any Losses incurred by Buyer or any Buyer Indemnified Party arising out of, resulting from, or relating to: (i) the Excluded Liabilities and any failure of Seller to discharge any of the Excluded Liabilities; (ii) Buyer’s waiver of any applicable Bulk Sales Laws; and (iii) Seller’s operation of the Purchased Business or the Purchased Assets prior to the Closing Date, except to the extent of an Assumed Liability.

(c)Buyer further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller and any Seller Indemnified Party from and against any Losses incurred by Seller or any Seller Indemnified Party arising out of, resulting from, or relating to: (i) any failure of Buyer to discharge any of the Assumed Liabilities; (ii) any medical, health or disability claims of any Transferred Employee or such Transferred Employee’s employment with Buyer accruing after the Closing Date; and (iii) any claim, demand or liability for Taxes relating to, pertaining to, or arising out of the Purchased Business or the Purchased Assets for any Post-Closing Tax Period (other than Excluded Taxes).

(d)Amounts payable in respect of the parties’ indemnification obligations shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.  Whether or not the Indemnifying Party (as defined below) chooses to defend or prosecute any Third-Party Claim (as defined below), both parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings,

48

hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith or as provided in Section 5.1, the costs thereof constituting Losses of an Indemnified Party in connection with an indemnifiable claim.

(e)The amount of the Indemnifying Party’s liability under this Agreement shall be net of any applicable insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party.  The indemnification obligations of each party hereto under this Article 9 shall inure to the benefit of the directors, officers and Affiliates of the other party hereto on the same terms as are applicable to such other party.

(f)The Indemnifying Party’s liability for all claims made under Section 9.2(a)(i) shall be subject to the following limitations: (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability for such claims pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) until the aggregate amount of the Losses incurred shall exceed Fifty Thousand ($50,000) in which case the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the full amount of such Losses, and (ii) the Seller Indemnifying Party’s aggregate liability for all such claims as of any specified date shall equal the sum of (A) One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) plus (B) the gross amount realized by Seller or any Affiliate of Seller on or prior to such specified date as a result of the sale, disposition, transfer or conveyance by Seller or any Affiliate of Seller of any Buyer Shares which were Beneficially Owned by Seller and were issued to Seller hereunder plus (C) the gross amount actually and ultimately realized by Seller or any Affiliate of Seller after such specified date as a result of the sale, disposition, transfer or conveyance by Seller or any Affiliate of Seller of any Buyer Shares which were Beneficially Owned by Seller and were issued to Seller hereunder (the “Future Realized Amount”); provided, however, that the maximum aggregate liability of the Seller Indemnifying Parties for all claims made under Section 9.2(a)(i) shall not exceed Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000).  The Buyer Indemnifying Party’s aggregate liability for claims pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) as of any specified date shall equal the Seller Indemnifying Party’s aggregate liability for claims pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) as of such specified date.  The Indemnified Party may not make a claim for indemnification under Section 9.2(a) after the expiration of the survival period specified in Section 9.1 in the absence of notification in writing (with reasonably sufficient detail so as to enable a Party to determine the basis of any such claim) by the Indemnified Party of such a claim, or basis therefore as a result of a Third Party Claim, prior to the expiration of such survival period.  Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the Indemnifying Party’s aggregate liability for all claims made under Section 9.2(a)(i) may not be finally determined until all the Buyer Shares issued hereunder have been sold and that such aggregate liability may increase as a result of such sale even after the expiration of any applicable survival period set forth in Section 9.1; provided, however, that the maximum aggregate liability of the Seller Indemnifying Parties for all claims made under Section 9.2(a)(i) shall not exceed Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000).

(g)The indemnification provided in this Article 9 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy after the Closing Date for damages available to the parties to this Agreement for breach of any of the terms, conditions, covenants, representations or warranties contained herein or any right, claim or action arising from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, this exclusive remedy for damages does not preclude a party from bringing an action for (i) specific performance or other equitable remedy to require a party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any Collateral Agreement; (ii) fraud or

49

intentional misrepresentation; or (iii) any indemnification provided for in any Collateral Agreement.

(h)The rights to indemnification under this Section 9.2 shall not be subject to set-off for any claim by the Indemnifying Party against any Indemnified Party, whether or not arising from the same event giving rise to such Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification.

(i)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Article 9 shall not limit the indemnification obligations of an Indemnifying Party with respect to fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

9.3General Procedures for Indemnification

(a)The Indemnified Party seeking indemnification under this Agreement shall promptly notify the party against whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any audit or investigation of a Governmental Body, action, suit or proceeding by any Third Party, in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder and shall give the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request, but failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder (unless and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has suffered material prejudice by such failure).  If the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) days of receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the commencement of or assertion of any claim, action, suit or proceeding (including an audit or investigation of a Governmental Body) by a Third Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder (a “Third-Party Claim”), to assume the defense and control the settlement of such Third-Party Claim that (i) involves (and continues to involve) solely money damages, or (ii) involves (and continues to involve) claims for both money damages and equitable relief against the Indemnified Party that cannot be severed, where the claims for money damages are the primary claims asserted by the Third Party and the claims for equitable relief are incidental to the claims for money damages.  If the Indemnifying Party has not acknowledged in writing its obligation to indemnify in full the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to assume and control the defense or the settlement against such Third Party Claim.  In the event that any party exercises its right to undertake any such defense against any Third Party Claim as provided above, then the other parties shall cooperate in such defense and make available at such cooperating party expense all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in such party’s possession and control relating thereto as is reasonably required to by the party conducting the defense.

(b)The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall have the right to participate in (but not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Third-Party Claim that the other is defending, as provided in this Agreement.

(c)The Indemnifying Party, if it has assumed the defense of any Third-Party Claim as provided in this Agreement, shall not consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written

50

consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless such settlement or judgment relates solely to monetary damages which are indemnified Losses the Indemnifying Party will fully satisfy.  The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, enter into any compromise or settlement that (i) commits the Indemnified Party to take, or to forbear to take, any action, or (ii) does not provide for a complete release by such Third Party of the Indemnified Party.  The Indemnified Party shall have the sole and exclusive right to settle any Third-Party Claim, on such terms and conditions as it deems reasonably appropriate, to the extent such Third-Party Claim involves equitable or other non-monetary relief against the Indemnified Party, and shall have the right to settle any Third-Party Claim involving money damages for which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense pursuant to this Section 9.3 for which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party for all Losses relating thereto (including the costs of defense thereof) with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d)In the event an Indemnified Party shall claim a right to payment pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall send written notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party; but failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder (unless and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has suffered material prejudice by such failure).  Such notice shall specify the basis for such claim, the amount thereof, if known, and the method of computation thereof, all with reasonable particularity and shall contain a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such a claim shall be incurred.  Such notice shall be given promptly after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of the basis for each such a claim as provided in Section 9.3(a).  The Indemnifying Party shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice of an indemnified Loss, and subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 9.3, (i) pay or cause to be paid to the Indemnified Party the amount of such Loss specified in such notice which the Indemnifying Party does not contest, or (ii) notify the Indemnified Party if it wishes to contest the existence or amount of part or all of such a Loss or the basis of a claim for a Loss in an amount that is not yet known by stating with particularity the basis upon which it contests the existence or amount thereof.  If there should be a dispute as to the amount or manner of determination of any indemnity obligation owed under this Article 9, the Indemnifying Party shall nevertheless pay when due such portion, if any, of the obligation as shall not be subject to dispute.  The difference, if any, between the amount of the obligation ultimately determined as properly payable under this Article 9 and the portion, if any, theretofore paid shall bear interest as provided below.  If all or part of any indemnification obligation under this Agreement is not paid when due, then the Indemnifying Party shall pay the Indemnified Party interest on the unpaid amount of the obligation for each day from the date the amount became due until payment in full, payable on demand, at the fluctuating rate per annum which at all times shall be equal to (i) the lowest rate of interest generally charged from time to time by SunTrust Bank and publicly announced by such bank as its so-called “prime rate” plus (ii) five percent (5%).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amount of an indemnified Loss which is otherwise payable by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 9 hereof and which amount is attributable to a Future Realized Amount shall be due and payable promptly after such Future Realized Amount is realized by Seller or one of its Affiliates.

51

10.5Governing Law.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN THAT STATE, IRRESPECTIVE OF THE CHOICE OF LAWS PRINCIPLES OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA, AS TO ALL MATTERS, INCLUDING MATTERS OF VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION, EFFECT, ENFORCEABILITY, PERFORMANCE AND REMEDIES.

10.8Public Announcement.  Prior to the signing of this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall prepare a mutually agreeable release announcing the transaction contemplated hereby. 

53

11.4Amendment of Agreement.  This Agreement may be amended with respect to any provision contained herein at any time prior to the Closing Date by action of the parties hereto taken by their Boards of Directors or by their duly authorized officers or employees, whether before or after such party’s action; provided, however, that such amendment shall be evidenced by a written instrument duly executed on behalf of each party by its duly authorized officer or employee.

Exhibit 99.2

NMS Communications Announces Sale of its AccessGate(TM) Business

Monday December 24, 9:00 am ET

FRAMINGHAM, Mass.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—NMS Communications Corp. (NASDAQ: NMSS - News), a leading provider of applications and platforms for value-added services for mobile telecommunications networks, today announced the sale of its AccessGate™ business to Verso Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRSO - News), a global technology provider of next generation network solutions. Under the terms of the agreement, Verso acquired the business and associated assets and liabilities for total consideration of $3.35 million, including $850,000 of cash and $2.5 million of Verso common stock. The AccessGate™ business will be integrated with Verso’s NetPerformer optimization product line, and substantially all the NMS employees of the AccessGate™ business will become employees of Verso Technologies, Inc.

“This sale will enable us to focus all our resources on our two strategic business units: the Communications Platforms business and the recently launched LiveWire Mobile business. We significantly sharpened our focus on these two business areas with the re-organization of the company earlier this year into two fully integrated businesses, and the sale of the AccessGate™ business is another step forward on this path,” said Bob Schechter, NMS Communications’ Chairman and CEO. “AccessGate’s solutions have been well received in the marketplace and we believe the business will be in an even better position to thrive as part of Verso Technologies.”

“We have made significant progress toward improving our financial performance throughout the year. LiveWire Mobile is on track to achieve another year of significant top line growth and major milestones, such as the managed service launch of Virgin Mobile’s ringback tone offering during Q4 2007. The Communications Platforms business is on track for a year of solid profitability and healthier second-half top line performance, and has likewise achieved significant design win milestones, such as the recently announced selection of our 3G Mobile TV platform by China’s Datang Mobile for its 3G Mobile Interactive Entertainment solution.” Schechter concluded.

Updated Q4 2007 Guidance

AccessGate™ will be treated as a discontinued operation and as such will not be included in revenues and operating income results from continuing operations, both currently and retrospectively. Previously reported AccessGate™ revenues in Q3 2007 were approximately $2 million, and the AccessGate™ business operated at approximately break- even on a non-GAAP basis.

Excluding AccessGate™ revenues and operating income from Q4 2007 results, we currently anticipate Q4 2007 revenues from continuing operations to be up modestly from comparable Q3 2007 levels, and we expect to operate at about break-even from continuing operations on a non-GAAP basis. These expectations are unchanged from our previously issued guidance after the removal of AccessGate™ from continuing operations for all reporting periods.

Statements in this document expressing the beliefs and expectations of management regarding future performance are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including forward-looking statements about our expected future financial and operating performance and demand for and performance of our products and growth opportunities. These statements are based on management’s expectations as of the date of this release and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to risks and uncertainties

including, but not limited to, uncertainty in communications spending, the implementation of the Company’s strategic repositioning and market acceptance of the Company’s new solutions strategy, quarterly fluctuations in financial results, the Company’s ability to exploit fully the value of its technology and its strategic partnerships and alliances, the availability of products from the Company’s contract manufacturer and product component vendors and other risks. These and other risks are detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. In addition, while management may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, management specifically disclaims any obligation to do so, even if its estimates change. Any reference to our website in this press release is not intended to incorporate the contents thereof into this press release or any other public announcement.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has provided in this release references to non-GAAP net income and/or non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share figures, which are non-GAAP financial measures adjusted to exclude certain non-cash and other specified expenses. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to help investors better understand and assess the Company’s past financial performance and prospects for the future and facilitates comparisons with the performance of others in our industry. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating the Company’s financial results, as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Specifically, in addition to the reasons stated above, the Company excludes stock-based compensation from its non-GAAP financial measures because the accounting treatment for stock-based compensation has changed with the adoption of SFAS 123R. Therefore, management believes that excluding stock-based compensation from its non-GAAP financial measures is useful in order to offer consistent information that is comparable to previous information that the Company has publicly disclosed with respect to prior periods for which stock-based compensation was not expensed in accordance with the accounting rules applicable to such periods. Additionally, the Company excludes the effects of amortization of acquired intangible assets from its non-GAAP financial measures because, in the period prior to the Openera acquisition, it did not incur amortization expense of this nature, and the exclusion of this amount helps investors compare operating expenses with prior periods. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company, however, should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the expected results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those expected results should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.
