Reason for the Written Consent
The Surebridge Acquisition |
On June 10, 2004, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Surebridge, Inc. (Surebridge), a privately held provider of managed application services for mid-market companies, pursuant to the terms of an asset purchase agreement (as amended, the Asset Purchase Agreement).
Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Surebridge in exchange for two promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $39.3 million, three million shares of Common Stock (the Fixed Shares) and the assumption of certain liabilities of Surebridge at closing.
The promissory notes issued by the Company to Surebridge consist of a Primary Note and an Escrow Note (collectively, the Notes). The Primary Note is in the principal amount of approximately
The Notes accrue interest on the unpaid balance at an annual rate of 10%, however no interest shall accrue on any principal paid within nine months of the closing. The Notes shall be paid in full no later than the second anniversary of the closing. In the event that the Company realizes net proceeds in excess of $1 million from certain equity or debt financings or sales of assets, the Company is obligated to use a significant portion of the proceeds to make payments on the Notes.
The outstanding principal and accrued interest of the Notes shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock (the Conversion Shares) at the election of the holder (i) at any time following the first anniversary of the closing if the aggregate principal outstanding under the Notes at such time is greater than or equal to $20 million, (ii) at any time following the 18-month anniversary of the closing if the aggregate principal outstanding under the Notes at such time is greater than or equal to $10 million, (iii) at any time following the second anniversary of the closing, and (iv) at any time following an event of default thereunder. The conversion price of each Note is $4.642, which is the average closing price of the Common Stock for the ten-day period ending one day prior to closing.
For a period of one year following the closing of the acquisition, Surebridge shall not sell, transfer, assign, convey, encumber, gift, distribute or otherwise dispose of the Fixed Shares, the Conversion Shares or the Notes; provided, however, if the Company does not make certain payments under the Notes or otherwise suffers an event of default thereunder, Surebridge may sell the Fixed Shares and the Conversion Shares at any time thereafter.
The Fixed Shares and the Conversion Shares have certain demand and piggyback registration rights pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement entered into by and between the Company and Surebridge.
The Stock Plan Amendment
On May 6, 2004, the Board of Directors of the Company approved, subject to stockholder approval, an amendment (the Stock Plan Amendment) to the Companys Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Incentive Plan, to increase the maximum number of shares of Common Stock pursuant to which the Company may grant stock options and restricted stock awards thereunder from 3,800,000 to 6,800,000 shares.
The Written Consent
On May 6, 2004, Atlantic Investors, LLC, the majority stockholder of the Company (Atlantic Investors), delivered to the Company an executed written consent of stockholders, in the form attached as Appendix I, approving (i) the issuance of the Fixed Shares and the Conversion Shares, and (ii) the Stock Plan Amendment.
Voting and Vote Required
The Company is not seeking consent, authorizations or proxies from you. Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (Section 228) provides that the written consent of the holders of outstanding shares of voting capital stock, having not less than the minimum number of votes which would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted, may be substituted for a meeting. Approval of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock present and voting on the matter at a meeting would be required to approve each of (i) the issuance of the Fixed Shares and the Conversion Shares, and (ii) the Stock Plan Amendment.
As of the Record Date, the Company had 24,829,228 shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote. On the Record Date, Atlantic Investors held 17,292,550 shares, or approximately 69.6%, of the Companys Common Stock. Accordingly,

APPROVAL OF THE ISSUANCE OF THE FIXED SHARES AND THE CONVERSION SHARES
The Surebridge Acquisition |
On June 10, 2004, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Surebridge, a privately held provider of managed application services for mid-market companies. Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Surebridge in exchange for two promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $39.3 million, the Fixed Shares and the assumption of certain liabilities of Surebridge at closing.
The Primary Note is in the principal amount of approximately $32.5 million. The Escrow Note is in the principal amount of approximately $6.8 million and has been deposited into escrow for the purpose of satisfying indemnification claims by the Company pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement. The principal amount of both Notes is subject to adjustment based on the net working capital of Surebridge at closing. The Notes accrue interest on the unpaid balance at an annual rate of 10%, however no interest shall accrue on any principal paid within nine months of the closing. The Notes shall be paid in full no later than the second anniversary of the closing. In the event that the Company realizes net proceeds in excess of $1 million from certain equity or debt financings or sales of assets, the Company is obligated to use a significant portion of the proceeds to make payments on the Notes.
The outstanding principal and accrued interest of the Notes shall be convertible into the Conversion Shares at the election of the holder (i) at any time following the first anniversary of the closing if the aggregate principal outstanding under the Notes at such time is greater than or equal to $20 million, (ii) at any time following the 18-month anniversary of the closing if the aggregate principal outstanding under the Notes at such time is greater than or equal to $10 million, (iii) at any time following the second anniversary of the closing, and (iv) at any time following an event of default thereunder. The conversion price of each Note is $4.642, which is the average closing price of the Common Stock for the ten-day
3
For a period of one year following the closing of the acquisition, Surebridge shall not sell, transfer, assign, convey, encumber, gift, distribute or otherwise dispose of the Fixed Shares, the Conversion Shares or the Notes; provided, however, if the Company does not make certain payments under the Notes or otherwise suffers an event of default thereunder, Surebridge may sell the Fixed Shares and the Conversion Shares at any time thereafter.
The Fixed Shares and the Conversion Shares have certain demand and piggyback registration rights pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement entered into by and between the Company and Surebridge.
Nasdaq Stockholder Approval Requirements |
The Common Stock is listed on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. The NASD rules governing Nasdaq require stockholder approval of any issuance of securities (i) in connection with the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company that will or potentially will result in the issuance of shares representing 20% or more of the issuers outstanding shares of common stock or voting power prior to the issuance of such securities, or (ii) that will or potentially will result in a change of control of the issuer.
Specifically, NASD Rule 4350(i)(1)(C) requires that the issuer of stock in connection with the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company secure stockholder approval prior to an issuance where the issuance or potential issuance of the shares of common stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, would result in the issuance of 20% or more of the common stock or voting power of the issuer before the issuance. In addition, NASD Rule 4350(i)(1)(B) requires that the issuer of stock secure stockholder approval prior to an issuance or potential issuance which will result in a change of control of the issuer.
Nasdaq rules do not require stockholder approval of the acquisition of the assets and liabilities of Surebridge by the Company or the issuance of the Fixed Shares or the Notes. However, the potential issuance of the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Notes, when added to the issuance of the Fixed Shares, would potentially equal or exceed the 20% threshold and could potentially be deemed a change of control of the Company under applicable Nasdaq rules. Therefore, for purposes of the applicable Nasdaq rules, the Companys stockholders approved the issuance of the Fixed Shares and the Conversion Shares prior to any issuance which would equal or exceed the 20% threshold or be deemed a change of control of the Company.
On May 6, 2004, Atlantic Investors delivered to the Company an executed written consent of stockholders approving the issuance of the Fixed Shares and the Conversion Shares. This Information Statement is being sent to all stockholders of the Company as notice that such action has been taken. The Company is not asking that you vote to approve the issuance of the Fixed Shares and the Conversion Shares. Under federal law governing the taking of stockholder action by written consent, stockholder approval of the issuance of the Fixed Shares and the Conversion Shares will be deemed effective 20 days after the mailing of this Information Statement to stockholders of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Notes shall not be convertible into an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that is greater than or equal to (i) 19.9% of that number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the closing less (ii) 3,000,000 shares, unless and until such stockholder approval is deemed effective.

APPROVAL OF THE STOCK PLAN AMENDMENT
On May 6, 2004, the Board of Directors of the Company approved, subject to stockholder approval, an amendment to the Companys Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, the 2003 Plan), to increase the maximum number of shares of Common Stock pursuant to which the Company may grant stock options and restricted stock awards thereunder from 3,800,000 to 6,800,000 shares. The Board adopted the Stock Plan Amendment because the number of shares currently available under the 2003 Plan is insufficient to satisfy the expected foreseeable future share requirements thereunder. The Board of Directors believes that continued grants of stock options, as well as grants of restricted stock awards, will be an important element in attracting and retaining key employees who are expected to contribute to the Companys growth and success. NaviSites management relies on stock options as essential parts of the compensation packages necessary for NaviSite to attract and retain experienced officers and employees. As of May 6, 2004 and following approval by the stockholders of the Stock Plan Amendment, 3,017,691 shares were available for issuance under the 2003 Plan. The closing price of NaviSite Common Stock on May 6, 2004 was $5.20.
Summary of the 2003 Plan |
The 2003 Plan was adopted, subject to stockholder approval, by NaviSites Board of Directors on July 10, 2003, and amended and restated on November 11, 2003 to increase the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under such plan from 2,600,000 to 3,800,000. The 2003 Plan was approved by the stockholders of the Company on December 9, 2003 at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The 2003 Plan provides for the grant of options that are intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, options not intended to qualify as incentive stock options and restricted stock awards (each, an Award) to NaviSites employees, officers and directors, consultants or advisors. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees of NaviSite. A maximum of 6,800,000 shares of Common Stock are eligible for issuance under the 2003 Plan upon the exercise of options or in connection with Awards. If any Award expires, or is terminated, surrendered or canceled without having been fully exercised or forfeited, in whole or in part (including as a result of shares of Common Stock being repurchased by NaviSite at the original issue price pursuant to a contractual repurchase right), or results in the Common Stock not being issued, the unissued Common Stock covered by such Award shall again be available for the grant of Awards under the 2003 Plan.
As of May 6, 2004, approximately 397 persons were eligible to receive Awards under the 2003 Plan, including the Companys five executive officers and three non-employee directors. The granting of Awards under the 2003 Plan is discretionary, and the Company cannot now determine the number or type of Awards to be granted in the future to any particular person or group of persons. The following table summarizes options awarded under the 2003 Plan as of May 6, 2004 to designated individuals and groups since the adoption of the 2003 Plan in July 2003:

The purpose of the 2003 Plan is to provide Awards to employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors of NaviSite and its present or future parent or subsidiary corporations (each a Participant), all of whom are eligible to receive Awards under the 2003 Plan. A copy of the 2003 Plan is attached to this Information Statement as Appendix II. The following is a summary of the 2003 Plan and should be read together with the 2003 Plan. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2003 Plan.
Administration. The 2003 Plan is administered by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has the power to grant Awards and to adopt, amend and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices relating to the 2003 Plan as it may deem advisable. The Board of Directors may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the 2003 Plan or any Award in the manner and to the extent it shall deem expedient to carry the 2003 Plan into effect and it shall be the sole and final judge of such expediency. All decisions by the Board shall be made in the Boards sole discretion and shall be final and binding on all persons having or claiming any interest in the Plan or in any Award. The Board may delegate its powers to one or more committees of the Board or to one or more executive officers of NaviSite (provided, that the Board of Directors shall fix the terms of the Awards granted by the executive officer and the maximum number of shares that the executive officer may grant and that no executive officer shall have the power to grant Awards to another executive officer (as defined in Rule 3b-7 of the Exchange Act, or to any officer (as defined in Rule 16a-1 of the Exchange Act) of NaviSite).
Per-Participant Limit. No Participant may be granted Awards during any one calendar year to purchase more than 650,000 shares of Common Stock.
Exercise Price. The Board establishes the exercise price at the time each option is granted.
Exercise of Options. Each option granted under the 2003 Plan shall either be fully exercisable at the time of grant or shall become exercisable in such installments as the Board may specify. Once an installment becomes exercisable it shall remain exercisable until expiration or termination of the option, unless otherwise specified by the Board. Each option or installment may be exercised at any time or from time to time, in whole or in part, for up to the total number of shares with respect to which it is then exercisable. During the Participants lifetime, Awards may be exercised only by the Participant.
Payment for Exercise of Options. Payment for the exercise of options under the 2003 Plan may be made by one or any combination of the following forms of payment (a) by cash or check payable to the order of NaviSite; (b) except as otherwise explicitly provided in the applicable option agreement, by delivery of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to NaviSite sufficient funds to pay the exercise price or any required tax withholding, or delivery by the Participant to NaviSite of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to NaviSite cash or a check sufficient to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding; (c) when the Common Stock is registered under the Exchange Act, by delivery of shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant valued at fair market value (as determined by or in a manner approved by the Board) provided that such method of payment is then permitted by law and such Common Stock, if acquired directly from NaviSite, was owned by the Participant for at least six months; or (d) to the extent permitted by the Board, (x) by delivery of a promissory note of the Participant to NaviSite (on terms determined by the Board) or (y) payment of such other lawful consideration as the Board may determine.
Transferability. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable option agreement, options are not transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
Restricted Stock. The Board may grant Awards entitling recipients to acquire shares of Common Stock, subject to the right of NaviSite to repurchase all or part of such shares at their issue price or other stated or formula price from the Participant in the event that conditions specified by the Board in the applicable Award are not satisfied prior to the end of the applicable restriction period or periods established by the Board for such Award.
6
Acquisition of NaviSite. Upon the occurrence of a Reorganization Event (as defined below) or the execution by NaviSite of any agreement with respect to any Reorganization event, the Board shall provide that all outstanding options outstanding under the 2003 Plan shall be assumed, or equivalent options shall be substituted, by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof). If the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof) does not agree to assume, or substitute for, such options, then all then unexercised options will become exercisable in full as of a time specified by the Board prior to the Reorganization Event and will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such Reorganization Event; provided, however, that in the event of a Reorganization Event under the terms of which holders of Common Stock will receive a cash payment for each share of Common Stock surrendered pursuant to such Reorganization Event (the Acquisition Price), then the Board may instead provide that all outstanding options outstanding under the 2003 Plan shall terminate upon consummation of such Reorganization Event and that each optionholder shall receive, in exchange therefor, a cash payment equal to the amount (if any) by which (A) the Acquisition Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such outstanding options (whether or not then exercisable), exceeds (B) the aggregate exercise price of such options.
Upon the occurrence of a Reorganization Event, the repurchase and other rights of NaviSite under each outstanding restricted stock award shall inure to the benefit of NaviSites successor and shall apply to the cash, securities or other property which the Common Stock was converted into or exchanged for pursuant to such Reorganization Event in the same manner and to the same extent as they applied to the Common Stock subject to such restricted stock award. Reorganization Event is defined in the 2003 Plan as follows: (a) any merger or consolidation of NaviSite with or into another entity as a result of which all of the Common Stock of NaviSite is converted into or exchanged for the right to receive cash, securities or other property or (b) any exchange of all of the Common Stock of NaviSite for cash, securities or other property pursuant to a share exchange transaction.
Effect of Termination, Disability or Death. The Board determines the effect on an Award of the disability, death, retirement, authorized leave of absence or other change in the employment or other status of a Participant and the extent to which, and the period during which, the Participant, or the Participants legal representative, conservator, guardian or designated beneficiary, may exercise rights under the Award.
Amendment of Award. The Board of Directors may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding Award, including but not limited to, by substituting therefor another Award of the same or a different type, changing the date of exercise or realization, and converting an ISO (as defined below) to a non-qualified stock option, provided that the Participants consent to such action shall be required unless the Board of Directors determines that the action, taking into account any related action, would not materially and adversely affect the Participant.
Termination and Amendment of Plan. The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the 2003 Plan or any portion thereof at any time. Unless terminated sooner, no Awards may be granted under the 2003 Plan after July 9, 2013, but Awards previously granted may extend beyond that date.
United States Federal Income Tax Consequences |
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION OF UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE ISSUANCE AND EXERCISE OF OPTIONS GRANTED UNDER THE 2003 PLAN IS BASED UPON THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AS IN EFFECT ON THE DATE OF THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT, CURRENT REGULATIONS, AND EXISTING ADMINISTRATIVE RULINGS OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE. THIS DISCUSSION IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A COMPLETE DISCUSSION OF ALL OF THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE 2003 PLAN OR OF THE REQUIREMENTS THAT MUST BE MET IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR THE DESCRIBED TAX TREATMENT.
7
Incentive Stock Options (ISOs). The following general rules are applicable under current United States federal income tax law to ISOs granted under the 2003 Plan:
1. | In general, an optionee will not recognize any taxable income upon the grant of an ISO or upon the issuance of shares to him or her upon the exercise of an ISO, and NaviSite will not be entitled to a federal income tax deduction upon either the grant or the exercise of an ISO. | |
2. | If shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO are not disposed of within (i) two years from the date the ISO was granted or (ii) one year from the date the shares are issued to the optionee pursuant to the exercise of the ISO (the Holding Periods), the difference between the amount realized on any subsequent disposition of the shares and the exercise price generally will be treated as capital gain or loss to the optionee. | |
3. | If shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO are disposed of and the optionee does not satisfy the Holding Periods (a Disqualifying Disposition), then in most cases the lesser of (i) any excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise of the ISO over the exercise price or (ii) the actual gain on disposition, will be treated as compensation to the optionee and will be taxed as ordinary income in the year of such disposition. | |
4. | The difference between the amount realized by an optionee as the result of a Disqualifying Disposition and the sum of (i) the exercise price and (ii) the amount of ordinary income recognized under the above rules generally will be treated as capital gain or loss to the optionee. | |
5. | In any year that an optionee recognizes ordinary income on a Disqualifying Disposition of shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO, NaviSite generally will be entitled to a corresponding federal income tax deduction. | |
6. | An optionee may be entitled to exercise an ISO by delivering shares of NaviSite Common Stock to NaviSite in payment of the exercise price, if the optionees ISO agreement so provides. If an optionee exercises an ISO in such fashion, special rules will apply. | |
7. | In addition to the tax consequences described above, the exercise of an ISO may result in an alternative minimum tax to the optionee. In general, the amount by which the fair market value of the shares received upon exercise of the ISO exceeds the exercise price is included in the optionees alternative minimum taxable income. A taxpayer is required to pay the greater of his regular tax liability or the alternative minimum tax. A taxpayer who pays alternative minimum tax attributable to the exercise of an ISO may be entitled to a tax credit against his or her regular tax liability in later years. | |
8. | Capital gain or loss recognized by an optionee on a disposition of shares will be long-term capital gain or loss if the optionees holding period for the shares exceeds one year. | |
9. | Special rules apply if the shares acquired upon the exercise of an ISO are subject to vesting, or are subject to certain reporting requirements and restrictions on resale under federal securities laws applicable to directors, certain officers or 10% stockholders. |
Non-Qualified Options. The following general rules are applicable under current United States federal income tax law to Non-Qualified Options granted under the 2003 Plan:
1. | In general, an optionee will not recognize any taxable income upon the grant of a Non-Qualified Option, and NaviSite will not be entitled to a federal income tax deduction upon such grant. | |
2. | An optionee generally will recognize ordinary income at the time of exercise of the Non-Qualified Option in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price. NaviSite may be required to withhold tax on this amount. | |
3. | When an optionee sells the shares acquired upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Option, he or she generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the sale of the shares and his or her basis in the shares (generally, the |
8
exercise price plus the amount taxed to the optionee as ordinary income). If the optionees holding period for the shares exceeds one year, such gain or loss will be a long-term capital gain or loss. |
4. | When an optionee recognizes ordinary income attributable to a Non-Qualified Option, NaviSite generally should be entitled to a corresponding federal income tax deduction. | |
5. | An optionee may be entitled to exercise a Non-Qualified Option by delivering shares of NaviSite Common Stock to NaviSite in payment of the exercise price, if the optionees option agreement so provides. If an optionee exercises a Non-Qualified Option in such fashion, special rules will apply. | |
6. | Special rules apply if the shares acquired upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Option are subject to vesting, or are subject to certain reporting requirements and restrictions on resale under federal securities laws applicable to directors, certain officers or 10% stockholders. |
Restricted Stock Awards. The following general rules are applicable under current United States federal income tax law to Awards comprised of restricted Common Stock under the 2003 Plan:
Persons receiving restricted Common Stock under the under the 2003 Plan pursuant to Awards generally will not recognize taxable income upon the grant of the Award, unless the Participant makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code (an 83(b) Election). If the Participant makes an 83(b Election within 30 days of the date of grant, the Participant will recognize ordinary income, for the year the Award is granted, in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the shares received (determined on the date of the Award) over the purchase price. If an 83(b) Election is not made, then the Participant will recognize ordinary income, at the time that the forfeiture provisions or restrictions on transfer lapse, in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the Common Stock at the time of such lapse and the original purchase price paid for the Common Stock. The Participant will have a tax basis in the Common Stock acquired equal to the sum of the price paid and the amount of ordinary income recognized.
Upon the disposition of the Common Stock acquired pursuant to a restricted stock Award, the Participant will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the sale price of the Common Stock and the Participants basis in the Common Stock. The capital gain or loss will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the shares are held for more than one year.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth certain information as of June 17, 2004 (unless otherwise indicated), with respect to the beneficial ownership of Common Stock by the following:
| each person known by the Company to beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; | |
| each of the Companys directors; | |
| each of the Named Executive Officers (as defined below under the heading Executive Compensation); and | |
| all of the current executive officers and directors as a group. |
For purposes of the following table, beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Except as otherwise noted in the footnotes to the respective tables, the Company believes that each person or entity named in the tables has sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of Common Stock shown as beneficially owned by them (or shares such power with his or her spouse). Under such rules, shares of Common Stock issuable under options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days after June 17, 2004 (Presently Exercisable Options) are deemed outstanding and are included in the number of shares beneficially owned by a person named in the table and are used to compute the percentage ownership of that person. These shares are not, however, deemed outstanding for computing the percentage ownership of any other person or entity. Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each person listed in the table is c/o NaviSite, Inc., 400 Minuteman Road, Andover, Massachusetts 01810. The percentage ownership of Common Stock of each person or entity named in the following table is based on 27,918,049 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of June 17, 2004 plus any shares subject to Presently Exercisable Options held by such person.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT NAVISITE
Director Compensation
In November 2003, after completing a review of director compensation for comparable companies, the Board of Directors agreed (i) to grant to future independent directors upon initial election to the Board options to purchase 50,000 shares of NaviSite Common Stock and (ii) that any independent director be paid $7,500 per year, payable in quarterly installments. Additionally, upon re-election to the Board of Directors subsequent to the 2003 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, independent directors of the Board of Directors will be granted an annual option to purchase 15,000 shares of NaviSite Common Stock. The initial option grant of 50,000 shares shall vest monthly over three years (1/36th of the number of shares vest monthly). The subsequent annual option grant of 15,000 shares shall vest monthly over 12 months. The Chairperson of each of the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee also will receive, upon re-election to the Board of Directors at each annual meeting of stockholders, an option to purchase 10,000 shares of NaviSite Common Stock. This option shall vest monthly over a period of 12 months.
During the 2003 fiscal year, directors did not receive any option grants. Messrs. Dennedy and Schwartz each received $1,500 during fiscal year 2003 for service on the Board of Directors and $6,000 each paid in October 2003 for participating on a special committee of the Board of Directors during and subsequent to fiscal year 2003.
On October 3, 2003, Mr. Evans was elected to the Board of Directors of the Company. At such time, the Company did not have an existing stock option plan pursuant to which Mr. Evans was eligible to participate and receive an initial option grant. On December 9, 2003, the stockholders of the Company approved the 2003 Plan. On such date, Mr. Evans was granted an option to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock under such plan. A Special Committee of the Board of Directors determined that the exercise price of such option be set at $3.53 per share, equal to the closing price of the Companys Common Stock on October 3, 2003. The option was vested and exercisable as to 2/36th of the number of shares subject to the option on the date of grant. The option vests and becomes exercisable as to 1/36th of the number of shares subject to the option on the third day of each month commencing January 3, 2004 until fully vested on October 3, 2006.
On April 3, 2003, Mr. Schwartz was elected to the Board of Directors of the Company. On July 10, 2003, the Company granted stock options to substantially all of its executive officers and employees. At such time, the Company did not have an existing stock option plan pursuant to which Mr. Schwartz was eligible to participate and receive an initial option grant. On December 9, 2003, the stockholders of the Company approved the 2003 Plan. On such date, Mr. Schwartz was granted an option to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock under such plan. A Special Committee of the Board of Directors determined that the exercise price of such option be set at $2.55 per share, equal to the closing price of the Companys Common Stock on July 10, 2003. The option was vested and exercisable as to 8/36th of the number of shares subject to the option on the date of grant. The option vests and becomes exercisable as to 1/36th of the number of shares subject to the option on the third day of each month commencing January 3, 2004 until fully vested on April 3, 2006.

The option vests and becomes exercisable as to 1/12th of the number of shares subject to the option on each monthly anniversary date of the date of grant until fully vested on the first anniversary of the date of grant.

Apart from the arrangements discussed above, NaviSite does not pay any cash compensation to members of its Board of Directors for their services as members of the Board of Directors, although directors are reimbursed for their reasonable travel expenses incurred in connection with attending Board of Directors and committee meetings. Directors who are also NaviSite officers or employees are eligible to participate in the 2003 Plan. Following approval by NaviSites stockholders in December 2003 of the 2003 Plan, no additional option grants shall be made under the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan, the 1999 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors or the 2000 Stock Option Plan. However, all then-outstanding options under such plans shall remain in effect and the option grants to the independent directors, as described above, will be made under the 2003 Plan.
NaviSite and each member of the Board of Directors have entered into an indemnification agreement pursuant to which the directors will be indemnified by NaviSite, subject to certain limitations, for any liabilities incurred by the directors in connection with their role as directors of NaviSite.

Option Grants During the Fiscal Year Ended July 31, 2003 |
The following table sets forth information regarding options to purchase NaviSite Common Stock granted to the Named Executive Officers during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2003. The exercise price per share of each option is equal to the fair market value of NaviSite Common Stock on the date of grant, as determined pursuant to the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan. Potential realizable values set forth in the table are net of the exercise price, but before taxes associated with the exercise, and are based on the assumption that NaviSite Common Stock appreciates at the annual rate shown from the date of the grant until the expiration of the ten-year option term. These numbers are calculated based on rules of the SEC and do not represent NaviSites estimate or projection of future stock prices. The actual amount a Named Executive Officer may realize, if any, will depend upon the future performance of NaviSite Common Stock and the optionholders continued employment with NaviSite through the vesting period. Accordingly, the potential realizable values reflected in the table may not be achieved. NaviSite has never granted any stock appreciation rights.

Compensation Committee Report
This report discusses the Compensation Committees compensation objectives and policies with respect to NaviSites executive officers. The report reviews the compensation of senior executive officers as a group for the last fiscal year and, specifically, the compensation of Arthur P. Becker, NaviSites Chief Executive Officer.
Compensation Philosophy. NaviSites executive compensation program has three objectives: (i) to align the interests of its executive officers with the interests of NaviSites stockholders by basing a significant portion of an executives compensation on NaviSites performance; (ii) to attract and retain highly talented and productive executives; and (iii) to provide incentives for superior performance by NaviSites executives. To achieve these objectives, the Compensation Committee has crafted a program that consists of base salary, short-term incentive compensation in the form of a bonus, and long-term incentive compensation in the form of stock options. These compensation elements are in addition to the general benefit programs that are offered to all of NaviSites employees.
The Compensation Committee reviews NaviSites executive compensation program annually. In its review, the Compensation Committee assesses the competitiveness of NaviSites executive compensation program and reviews NaviSites performance for the previous fiscal year. In future years, the Compensation Committee will gauge the success of the compensation program in achieving its objectives in the previous year and will consider NaviSites overall performance objectives. Each element of NaviSites executive compensation program is discussed below.
Benefits. The Compensation Committee believes that NaviSite must offer a competitive benefits program to attract and retain key executives. NaviSite provides the same medical and other benefits to its executive officers that are generally available to its other employees. Senior executives, along with all eligible employees of NaviSite, may also choose to participate in NaviSites 401(k) plan.
Long-Term Incentive Compensation. The Compensation Committee believes that placing a portion of an executives total compensation in the form of stock options achieves three objectives: (i) it aligns the interest of NaviSites executives directly with those of NaviSites stockholders; (ii) it gives executives a significant long-term interest in NaviSites success; and (iii) it helps NaviSite retain key executives. In determining the number and terms of options to grant an executive, the Compensation Committee will primarily consider subjectively the executives past performance and the degree to which an incentive for long-term performance would benefit NaviSite.
Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee believes that the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer is consistent with NaviSites general policies concerning executive compensation and is appropriate in light of NaviSites financial objectives and performance. Awards of intermediate and long-term incentive compensation to the Chief Executive Officer are considered concurrently with awards to other executive officers and follow the same general policies as such other intermediate and long-term incentive awards.
Mr. Becker has served as a director of NaviSite since September 11, 2002 and became its Chief Executive Officer and President in February 2003. Mr. Beckers base salary for the portion of the last fiscal year during which he served as Chief Executive Officer was at a rate of $275,000 per year. In July 2003, Mr. Becker also received an option to acquire 40,000 shares of NaviSite Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.55 per share. Mr. Beckers compensation was designed to align his interests with those of NaviSites stockholders by tying the value of the stock option award and his eligibility for periodic cash
16
During NaviSites last fiscal year, under the leadership of Mr. Becker, NaviSite successfully executed its business plan and stabilized its business. Operationally, during fiscal year 2003, NaviSite experienced a significant transition, including the acquisitions discussed in Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and a balance sheet restructuring, to position NaviSite among the leaders in the outsourced hosting and managed application services market. NaviSite also expanded its service offerings and diversified its customer base, while at the same time implemented an operational plan that should bring costs more in line with projected revenue growth.
Policy on Deductibility of Executive Compensation. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), generally disallows a federal income tax deduction to public companies for certain compensation over $1,000,000 paid to a companys chief executive officer and four other most highly compensated executive officers. Qualifying performance-based compensation will not be subject to the deduction limit if certain requirements are met. The Compensation Committee intends to review the potential effects of Section 162(m) periodically and intends to structure NaviSites stock option grants and certain other equity-based awards in a manner that is intended to avoid disallowances under Section 162(m) of the Code unless the Compensation Committee believes that such compliance would not be in the best interest of NaviSite or its stockholders.

The $10 million convertible note was convertible into approximately 2.5 million shares of Common Stock. ClearBlue issued 131,579 shares of ClearBlue common stock to CMGI in the transaction, representing approximately 2% of the issued and outstanding equity of ClearBlue after giving effect to the transactions on such date with CMGI and Hewlett-Packard Financial Services Company. | |
| Pursuant to a Note and Stock Purchase Agreement by and between Hewlett-Packard Financial Services Company and ClearBlue, Hewlett-Packard Financial Services Company sold and transferred to ClearBlue approximately 213,000 shares of Common Stock, and convertible notes with an aggregate principal amount outstanding of approximately $55 million. The $55 million convertible notes were convertible into approximately 14.1 million shares of Common Stock.

As a result of the foregoing transactions, ClearBlue became NaviSites majority stockholder. In August 2003, ClearBlue transferred to its stockholders, including Atlantic Investors, its majority stockholder, the shares of Common Stock owned by it. On May 6, 2004, Atlantic Investors held 17,292,550 shares, or approximately 69.6%, of the Companys Common Stock.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
NaviSite, Inc. and Subsidiaries:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of NaviSite, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of July 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended July 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of NaviSite, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of July 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended July 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses from operations since inception and has an accumulated deficit. These factors, among others as discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

On December 12, 2002, our Board of Directors, pursuant to authority previously granted by our stockholders at the annual meeting on December 19, 2001, approved a reverse stock split of our common stock at a ratio of one-for-fifteen (1:15) effective January 7, 2003. All per-share amounts and number of shares outstanding have been restated to give effect to the reverse stock split.
Change in Controlling Ownership |
Through September 10, 2002, we were a majority owned subsidiary of CMGI, Inc. (CMGI). On September 11, 2002, each of CMGI and Hewlett-Packard Financial Services Company (HPFS) sold and transferred to ClearBlue Technologies, Inc. (ClearBlue), a privately-held managed service provider based in San Francisco, California, the following equity and debt interests in NaviSite:
| Pursuant to a Note and Stock Purchase Agreement by and between ClearBlue and CMGI (the CMGI Agreement), CMGI sold and transferred to ClearBlue 4,735,293 shares of our common stock, $0.01 par value per share, representing approximately 76% of the outstanding capital stock of NaviSite, warrants to purchase 346,883 shares of our common stock and a convertible note of NaviSite with an aggregate principal amount outstanding of $10.0 million. The $10.0 million convertible note was convertible into 2,564,103 shares of our common stock, under certain circumstances as defined therein. | |
| Pursuant to a Note and Stock Purchase Agreement by and between ClearBlue and HPFS (the HPFS Agreement), HPFS sold and transferred to ClearBlue 213,804 shares of our common stock, representing approximately 3.4% of our outstanding capital stock, and convertible notes of NaviSite with an aggregate principal amount outstanding of approximately $55.0 million, convertible into 14,126,496 shares of our common stock, under certain circumstances as defined therein. |
On December 12, 2002, ClearBlue Finance, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of ClearBlue (ClearBlue Finance), (i) converted in full the $10.0 million note formerly held by CMGI and (ii) converted $10.0 million of the $55.0 million notes formerly held by HPFS. We issued 5,128,205 shares of our common stock to ClearBlue Finance upon the conversion and partial conversion, respectively, of the $10.0 million note formerly held by CMGI and $10.0 million of the $55.0 million notes formerly held by HPFS and issued 458,943 shares of our common stock for payments of interest due under the convertible notes. A new note (New Note) in the amount of $45.0 million was issued to ClearBlue Finance with
F-7
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
respect to the portion of the outstanding principal and interest due under the note formerly held by HPFS that was not converted.
On December 13, 2002, ClearBlue transferred beneficial ownership of all of its shares of our common stock (except for a fractional share which it retained) to its shareholders, ClearBlue Atlantic, LLC (ClearBlue Atlantic), HPFS, CMGI and an employee of ClearBlue Technologies Management, Inc. (CBTM) on a pro rata basis according to its shareholders ownership of ClearBlue.
Also, as a result of the change in ownership, the agreement between NaviSite and CMGI, whereby CMGI provided certain facilities and administrative support services for us, automatically terminated. CMGI continued to provide certain services to us pursuant to a Transition Services Agreement we entered into with CMGI on November 25, 2002 as we transitioned to a service agreement with ClearBlue or to other third-party suppliers. This transition agreement concluded during the second quarter of fiscal year 2003, and we have completely severed our administrative ties with CMGI; however, CMGI remains a third-party customer. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2003, we contracted with ClearBlue and other third-party suppliers for these services.
On December 31, 2002, NaviSite, a majority owned subsidiary of ClearBlue and its affiliates, completed the acquisition of CBTM, a wholly-owned subsidiary of ClearBlue which, in June 2002, acquired certain assets from the bankrupt estate of AppliedTheory, Inc., in exchange for 567,978 shares of our common stock, representing 4.5% of our total then outstanding common stock, inclusive of the common stock issued as part of the acquisition. The market price of our stock at the time of the transaction was $2.25 per share. As ClearBlue had a controlling interest in both companies at the time of the combination, the transaction was accounted for as a combination of entities under common control (i.e., as if pooling) whereby the assets and liabilities of CBTM and NaviSite were combined at their historical amounts. Accordingly, our historical consolidated financial statements have been restated to include the financial results of CBTM beginning on September 11, 2002, the initial date on which ClearBlue acquired a controlling interest in both NaviSite and CBTM. CBTMs balance sheet has been included in our Consolidated Balance Sheet at July 31, 2003, and CBTMs results of operations and cash flows for the eleven-months ended July 31, 2003 have been included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2003. CBTM is operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of NaviSite.
On June 16, 2003, we repaid approximately $3.9 million of the $45.0 million of outstanding New Note to ClearBlue Finance, Inc. by offsetting amounts due to us by ClearBlue. On June 17, 2003, we received written notice from ClearBlue Finance, Inc. stating its election to convert the remaining approximately $41.2 million of the New Note into 10,559,248 shares of common stock effective June 19, 2003. As of July 31, 2003 ClearBlue Technologies Equity, Inc., ClearBlue Finance, ClearBlue and ClearBlue Atlantic beneficially owned 19,284,994 shares of our common stock, representing approximately 78.6% of the outstanding shares of common stock on a fully converted basis. As a result of these changes in ownership since September 11, 2002 involving ClearBlue and its affiliates, the utilization of our federal and state tax net operating loss carryforwards will be severely limited pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 382.
Impact of Acquisitions |
In addition to the acquisition of CBTM, as discussed above, during fiscal year 2003, we completed the acquisitions of Avasta, Inc., a California corporation (Avasta), Conxion Corporation, a California corporation (Conxion), and substantially all of the assets of Interliant, Inc. (Interliant Assets) through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Intrepid Acquisition Corp. (Intrepid). Each of these acquisitions was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The results of operations and cash flows from Avasta, Conxion, and Intrepid are included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the twelve-month period ended July 31, 2003 from their respective dates of
F-8
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
acquisition, February 5, 2003, April 2, 2003, and May 16, 2003. See Note 6 for further discussion of our fiscal year 2003 acquisitions.
On August 8, 2003, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and the assumption of certain liabilities of ClearBlue Technologies, Inc. (CBT) pursuant to a Stock and Asset Acquisition Agreement (the CBT Agreement) in a business combination accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling-of-interest due to common control ownership. We acquired all outstanding shares of six (6) wholly-owned subsidiaries of CBT with data centers located in Chicago, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, Oakbrook and Vienna. In addition, we exercised effective control over and assumed the revenue and expense, as of the date of acquisition, of four (4) additional wholly-owned subsidiaries of CBT with data centers located in Dallas, New York, San Francisco and Santa Clara. Ownership of these subsidiaries will automatically be transferred, under certain conditions, to NaviSite for no additional consideration in February 2004.
As Atlantic Investors, LLC had a controlling interest in both NaviSite and CBT at the time of the combination, the transaction was accounted for as a combination of entities under common control (i.e., as if pooling) whereby the assets and liabilities of CBT and NaviSite were combined at their historical amounts. Accordingly, the Companys consolidated financial statements have been restated for all periods prior to the business combination to include CBTs financial results beginning on September 11, 2002, the date on which CBT acquired the controlling interest in the Company after the elimination of intercompany balances. CBTs balance sheet has been included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet of NaviSite at July 31, 2003, and CBTs results of operations and cash flows for the eleven months ended July 31, 2003 have been included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows of NaviSite for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2003.
(b) Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NaviSite and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, ClickHear, Inc., NaviSite Acquisition Corp., ClearBlue Technologies Management, Inc., Avasta, Inc., Conxion Corporation, Intrepid Acquisition Corp., ClearBlue Technologies/ Chicago-Wells, Inc., ClearBlue Technologies/ Las Vegas, Inc., ClearBlue Technologies/ Los Angeles, Inc., ClearBlue Technologies/ Milwaukee, Inc., ClearBlue Technologies/ Oakbrook, Inc., and ClearBlue Technologies/ Vienna, Inc. after elimination of all significant intercompany balances and transactions.
(c) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include the useful lives of fixed assets and intangible assets, recoverability of long-lived assets and the collectibility of receivables.
(d) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of a money market fund, which invests in high quality short-term debt obligations, including commercial paper, asset-backed commercial paper, corporate bonds, U.S. government agency obligations, taxable municipal securities, and repurchase agreements.
During fiscal year 2003, non-cash financing activities included the repayment of approximately $3.9 million of the New Note to ClearBlue Finance, Inc. with amounts due us by ClearBlue. In addition, fiscal year 2003 non-cash financing activities included the conversion of the then outstanding $41.2 million New Note into 10,559,248 shares of our common stock. This conversion also resulted in non-cash charges
F-9
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
of (a) $195,000 related to deferred financing costs; (b) $2.7 million in deferred interest expense; and (c) $21.6 million related to the amortization of the remaining balance of the beneficial conversion feature.
During fiscal year 2002, non-cash financing activities included a $35.0 million obligation to Compaq Financial Services Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Compaq Computer Corporation subsequently acquired by HPFS, incurred for the purchase of equipment previously held under operating lease agreements with a fair value, based on a third-party appraisal, of $9.6 million.
During fiscal year 2002, non-cash financing activities included the conversion of the $70.9 million, net, carrying amount ($80.0 million face value) of convertible notes payable to CMGI including interest of $1.5 million, and $16.2 million of amounts due to CMGI into an aggregate of 1,641,993 shares of our common stock.
During fiscal 2002 and 2001, non-cash financing activities included the issuance of 464,800 and 186,000 shares of common stock, respectively, in satisfaction of interest associated with convertible notes outstanding during fiscal 2002 and 2001.
In August 2002, the Company settled its intercompany liability to and receivables from CMGI, as of May 31, 2002, for $3.2 million in cash. The $3.2 million was remitted to CMGI in August 2002. As a result of the transaction, the Company realized a $4.5 million gain on the settlement, which was recorded as a contribution to additional paid-in capital as of July 31, 2002 as the transaction was considered to be a settlement of debt between entities under common control.
(e) Revenue Recognition
Revenue consists of monthly fees for Web site and Internet application management, application rentals, hosting, and professional services. Revenue (other than installation fees) is generally billed and recognized over the term of the contract, generally one to three years, based on actual usage. Payments received in advance of providing services are deferred until the period such services are provided. Revenue from professional services is recognized on a time-and-material basis as the services are performed or under the percentage of completion method for revenue relating to fixed-price contracts. We generally sell our professional services under contracts with terms ranging from one to five years. Revenue and profits on long-term Internet solutions contracts, which represent approximately 3.0% of total revenues for the fiscal year period ended July 31, 2003, performed over extended periods are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, principally, with adjustments recorded in the period in which the revisions are made. Any anticipated losses on contracts are charged to operations as soon as they are determinable.
(f) Concentration of Credit Risk
Our financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, obligations under capital leases, software agreements, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. As of July 31, 2003, the carrying cost of these instruments approximated their fair value. The financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade receivables is limited due to the large number of customers across many industries that comprise our customer base. One third-party customer accounted for 21% of our total revenues for the twelve-months ended July 31, 2003. Accounts receivable at July 31, 2003 included approximately $2.3 million due from this third-party customer.
(g) Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity from foreign currency translation adjustments.
F-10
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(h) Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements and assets acquired under capital leases are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or estimated useful life of the asset. Assets acquired under capital leases in which title transfers to us at the end of the agreement are amortized over the useful life of the asset. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
(i) Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Prior to July 31, 2002, goodwill related to purchase acquisitions completed in fiscal years 1998 and 2000. Such costs were amortized on a straight-line basis over five years, the period expected to be benefited. In fiscal year 2002, goodwill of $3,400 was written-off as part of the sale of the majority of the operating assets of one of the prior acquisitions. As part of our impairment analysis performed at July 31, 2002, it was determined that the unamortized goodwill at July 31, 2002 of $186,000 was fully impaired and was included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as a component of general and administration expense.
At July 31, 2003, our intangible assets consisted of customer lists resulting from our acquisition of CBTM, and the acquisitions of the certain assets and liabilities of Interliant and CBT. Our intangible assets were recorded at a gross carrying value of $15.8 million, less accumulated amortization of $3.7 million at July 31, 2003. Amortization expense related to our customer lists of $3.2 million for the fiscal year period ended July 31, 2003 was recorded as a component of our cost of revenue. Goodwill, resulting from our acquisition of CBTM, is recorded at its gross carrying value of $3.2 million. We perform our annual impairment analysis in our fiscal fourth quarter.
(j) Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We assess the need to record impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present. On an ongoing basis, management reviews the value and period of amortization or depreciation of long-lived assets, including goodwill. During this review, the significant assumptions used in determining the original cost of long-lived assets are reevaluated. Although the assumptions may vary from transaction to transaction, they generally include revenue growth, operating results, cash flows, and other indicators of value. Management then determines whether there has been a permanent impairment of the value of long-lived assets by comparing future undiscounted cash flows to the assets carrying value. If the estimated future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, a loss is recorded based on the excess of the assets carrying value over fair value.
(k) Income Taxes
We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Prior to the initial public offering on October 21, 1999, we were greater than 80% owned by CMGI, and as such, CMGI realized the full benefit of all federal and part of the state net operating losses that had been incurred by us for those periods before the fiscal year ended July 31, 2001. Therefore, such net operating losses incurred by NaviSite were not available to us. The tax sharing agreement between NaviSite and CMGI required us to reimburse CMGI for the amounts it contributed to the consolidated
F-11
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
tax liability of the CMGI group; however, under the policy, CMGI was not obligated to reimburse us for any losses utilized in the consolidated CMGI group. After our public offering, CMGIs ownership fell below 80% and we were no longer included in the federal consolidated group of CMGI. Thus, our federal and state net operating losses can be carried forward to offset our future taxable income. As a result of the transaction on September 11, 2002, NaviSite had a change in ownership as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result of the change in ownership, the utilization of its federal and state tax net operating losses generated prior to the transaction is severely limited.
(l) Advertising Costs
We recognize advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was approximately $0, $4,000, and $3.1 million for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively, and is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as a component of selling and marketing expenses.
(m) Stock-Based Compensation Plans
We account for our stock option plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income for these plans, as all options granted under these plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock based compensation.

(n) | Historical and Unaudited Pro Forma Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share |
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and diluted common equivalent shares outstanding during the period, using either the if-converted method for convertible preferred stock and notes or the treasury stock method for options, unless amounts are anti-dilutive.
For fiscal years ended July 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, net loss per basic and diluted share is based on weighted average common shares and excludes any common stock equivalents, as they would be anti-dilutive due to the reported losses. There were 2,741, 29,503 and 167,793 of diluted shares related to employee stock options that were excluded as they have an anti-dilutive effect due to the loss for fiscal years 2003, 2002, and 2001 respectively.
(o) | Segment Reporting |
We currently operate in one segment, outsourced hosting and application management services. The Companys chief operating decision maker reviews financial information at a consolidated level. The Company has determined that reporting revenue at a service offering level is impracticable.
(p) | New Accounting Pronouncements |
In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) finalized Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 01-8, Determining Whether an Arrangement is a Lease (EITF 01-8). Under EITF 01-8, our relationships with our customers no longer meet the definition of a lease arrangement and as such, on a prospective basis after May 31, 2003, we no longer account for new customer agreements as direct financing agreements. Customer agreements that were classified as direct financing agreements before June 1, 2003 will continue to be treated as direct financing agreements through the term of the agreements.
In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 applies to all business combinations that we enter into after June 30, 2001, and eliminates the pooling-of-interests method of accounting. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new statements, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with the statements. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2003 (effective August 1, 2002), the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (SFAS 142), Goodwill and Intangible Assets, which supersedes APB Opinion No. 17, Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 142 eliminates the current requirement to amortize goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, addresses the amortization of intangible assets with a defined life and addresses the impairment testing and recognition of goodwill and intangible assets. The following information describes the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 142 had on the Company for the fiscal years ended July 31:

SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, issued in August 2001, addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and was adopted beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2003. The adoption of SFAS 143 did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, issued in October 2001, addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS 144 establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale as well as revising certain criteria specified in
F-14
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
SFAS 121 for the recognition and measurement of impairment losses related to long-lived assets. The adoption of SFAS 144 did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
SFAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, issued in July 2002, addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and rescinds Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 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). SFAS 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF Issue No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost as defined in EITF Issue No. 94-3 was recognized at the date of an entitys commitment to an exit plan. SFAS 146 also establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liability. The provisions of SFAS 146 are effective for exit and disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. We applied the provisions of SFAS 146 in January 2003 in connection with the lease abandonments.
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45 (FIN 45), Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, which clarifies disclosure and recognition/ measurement requirements related to certain guarantees. The disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements issued after December 15, 2002 and the recognition/ measurement requirements are effective on a prospective basis for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The application of the requirements of FIN 45 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure. SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The transition guidance and annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. As we did not make a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation in fiscal year 2003, the adoption of SFAS No. 148 did not have a material impact on the our financial position and results of operations.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 150, Accounting For Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity which establishes standards for how an issuer of financial instruments classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances) if, at inception, the monetary value of the obligation is based solely or predominantly on a fixed monetary amount known at inception, variations in something other than the fair value of the issuers equity shares or variations inversely related to changes in the fair value of the issuers equity shares. This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 150 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

(r) | Foreign Currency |
The functional currencies of our wholly-owned subsidiaries are the local currencies. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates during corresponding period for revenues, cost of revenues and expenses. Translation gains and losses are deferred and accumulated as a separate component of stockholders equity (accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
(3) | Liquidity |
Our cash and cash equivalents decreased to approximately $3.9 million at July 31, 2003 from approximately $21.8 million at July 31, 2002. Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $14.5 million for the year ended July 31, 2003, resulting primarily from net losses, decreases in accrued expenses and accounts payables, and a decrease in amounts due to CMGI, partially offset by non-cash charges for the write-off and amortization of the beneficial conversion feature of the convertible debt, interest paid in stock, costs related to abandoned leases, impairment of assets, depreciation and amortization, and provision for bad debt. Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $1.9 million for the year ended July 31, 2003, resulting primarily from purchases of property and equipment, the purchase of certain assets of Interliant, the purchase of convertible notes of Interliant, a loan made to a related party, partially offset by cash acquired in acquisitions and the release of restricted cash. Net cash used for financing activities was approximately $1.5 million for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2003, resulting primarily from repayment of debt to the estate of AppliedTheory, repayment of notes to affiliates, the payment of capital lease obligations, partially offset by borrowings from affiliates and borrowings from our accounts receivable financing line.
At July 31, 2003, we had a working capital deficit of $16.3 million, an accumulated deficit of $416 million, and have reported losses from operations since incorporation. We have used cash from continuing operations of $14.5 million, $27.0 million and $88.8 million in the years ended July 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively. We anticipate incurring additional losses throughout our next fiscal year. NaviSite has taken several actions it believes will allow us to continue as a going concern through July 31, 2004, including the closing and integration of strategic acquisitions, the change in our Board of Directors and senior management and bringing costs more in line with projected revenues. Based upon our cash flow estimates we believe that we will more than likely need to raise funds to meet our anticipated needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months. Our cash flow estimates are based upon attaining certain levels of sales, maintaining budgeted levels of operating expenses, collections of accounts receivable and maintaining our current borrowing line with Silicon Valley Bank among other assumptions, including the improvement in the overall macroeconomic environment. Our sales estimate includes revenue from new and existing customers which may not be realized and we may be required to further reduce expenses if budgeted sales are not attained. We may be unsuccessful in reducing expenses in proportion to any shortfall in projected sales and our estimate of collections of accounts receivable may be hindered by our customers ability to pay.
We believe that we will more than likely need to raise funds to meet our anticipated needs for working capital and capital expenditures. We believe that the sources of liquidity include the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, sales of assets, or through credit arrangements with financial institutions. If we are unable to successfully complete any one of such capital-raising transactions, we will turn to one or more of the other transactions. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming NaviSite will continue as a going concern and, as such, do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

(4) | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets |
During fiscal year 2002, the Company recorded a net $1.9 million charge representing the future estimated remaining minimum lease payments related to certain idle equipment held under various operating leases. The equipment had previously been rented to former customers under operating leases, and upon the loss of the customer, the equipment became idle. Based on the Companys forecasts, the equipment will not be utilized before the related operating leases expire and/or the equipment becomes obsolete.
During fiscal year 2002, the Company evaluated the current and forecasted utilization of its purchased software licenses. As a result of this evaluation, during the second quarter of fiscal year 2002, the Company recorded a $365,000 impairment for software licenses that would not be utilized before the licenses expired or became obsolete.
During fiscal year 2002, the Company finalized agreements with various equipment lessors whereby the Company purchased equipment previously held under operating lease for approximately $42.0 million. The fair market value of the equipment at the time of purchase, based on third party appraisal, was approximately $13.1 million. As the aggregate fair market value of the equipment, based on third party appraisal, was less than the aggregate consideration given, the Company recorded an asset impairment charge of $25.4 million, as a separate component of cost of revenue, in fiscal year 2002.
A number of factors occurring during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002 impacted the Companys long-lived assets including both their expected future cash flow generation and the Companys expected utilization of the assets within revised operating plans. These factors included the further deterioration of market conditions within the web hosting industry, excess capacity in the industry and in the Companys two data centers, deterioration of the Companys revenue base.
Based on these factors and their impact on current and future projected cash flows, the Company performed an assessment of the carrying value of its long-lived assets pursuant to SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of. The conclusion of this assessment was that the decline in market conditions within the Companys industry were significant and other than temporary. In this assessment, the Company reviewed its long-lived assets, which included property and equipment and goodwill. The carrying amount of goodwill, which totaled $186,000, was considered unrecoverable and was written-off as of July 31, 2002 and was included as a component of general and administration expense.
In accordance with SFAS No. 121, the measurement of the impairment loss of property and equipment was based on the fair value of the asset, as determined by a third party appraisal. The following is a summary of the impairment charge, by asset classification, as of July 31, 2002:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Management determined that the best measure of fair value for the property and equipment was a combination of the market and cost approaches. The cost approach was utilized to determine the fair value of certain computer hardware, leasehold improvements, office furniture and equipment, and construction in progress. The cost approach utilizes estimated replacement/reproduction costs, with allowances for physical depreciation and functional obsolescence (i.e. asset utilization). For certain equipment and leasehold improvements, the market approach was used. The market approach typically includes comparing recent sales of similar assets and adjusting these comparable transactions based on factors such as age, condition, and type of sale to determine fair value.
The following is a summary of the fiscal 2002 impairment charges described above, by asset classification:
Net impairment of fixed assets purchased from
operating leases

Impairment of fixed assets under SFAS 121
based on the fair value of the assets versus the carrying value
|
41,134 | ||||
Total
|
$ | 68,317 | |||
All impairment charges were recorded in the consolidated statements of operations based upon the nature of the asset being impaired and the nature of the assets use. The impairments recorded as a separate component of cost of revenue related to assets that were either being utilized or had at some time been utilized to generate revenue. The determination was based upon how the assets had historically been expensed, either as lease expense or depreciation/ amortization.
As a result of our abandoning our administrative space located on the second floor of our leased facility at 400 Minuteman Road in Andover, MA on January 31, 2003, certain long-lived assets consisting mostly of leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures were abandoned. We took a charge against our earnings in the second quarter of fiscal 2003 of approximately $62,000 in accordance with SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.
During the third fiscal quarter of 2003, we evaluated the net realizable value of our assets held for sale and determined, based upon third party quotes for purchase of these assets, that the net fair market value of our assets held for sale was less than the carrying value. As a result, we recorded a $1.0 million charge related to the reduction in the net realizable value of our assets held for sale as a component of other expense. These assets were sold to third parties in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2003.
During the fourth quarter of 2003, we evaluated the net realizable value of our intangible assets and determined, due to changes in certain real estate markets where we operate, that the net fair market value of our market advantaged leases was less than the carrying value. As a result, we recorded a charge of approximately $1.8 million related to the impairment of the market advantage leases.

(6) | Acquisitions |
CBTM. We acquired CBTM in December 2002 in a transaction accounted for as a combination of entities under common control (i.e., as if pooling) (see Note 1). In June 2002, prior to our acquisition of CBTM, CBTM acquired substantially all of the assets used or useful in the web hosting and Internet solutions business and assumed certain associated liabilities from the bankruptcy estate of AppliedTheory Corporation (AppliedTheory), which had filed for bankruptcy on April 17, 2002. On June 13, 2002, the acquisition of AppliedTheory by CBTM was consummated, effective June 6, 2002. The results of operations of AppliedTheory have been included in the financial statements of CBTM since June 6, 2002.
The aggregate purchase price paid by CBTM for the AppliedTheory assets, excluding assumed liabilities, was $16.0 million of which $3.9 million was paid in cash and $12.1 million was paid with the issuance of four notes payable to the AppliedTheory Estate: two unsecured promissory notes totaling $6.0 million, bearing interest at 8% per annum and due June 10, 2006, a secured promissory note totaling $700,000, bearing interest at 8% per annum and due December 10, 2002 and a $5.4 million secured promissory note, non-interest bearing, due December 10, 2002. The two notes due December 10, 2002 were paid in December 2002.
Of the $6.2 million in identifiable intangible assets, $5.8 million was assigned to customer lists which are being amortized over eight years, except for the New York State Department of Labor customer contract, which is being amortized over five years, and represents the remaining life on the contract. The
F-19
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
remaining $440,000 of acquired intangible assets was allocated to proprietary software, which is being amortized over five years.
Avasta, Inc. On February 5, 2003, we acquired Avasta, a provider of remote hosting and managed service operations in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $370,000. The acquisition was made to enhance our ability to be a full service provider of applications management services and technology to our customers. The purchase price consisted of 231,039 shares of common stock at a per share value of $1.60 (representing a five-day average of the market value of our common stock at the time of the acquisition). The purchase price of $442,000 consists of the issuance of common stock for approximately $370,000 and approximately $72,000 in acquisition costs. The Agreement and Plan of Merger provided that up to an additional 1,004,518 shares of common stock could be issued in the event certain revenue targets are achieved through June 2003. As a result of the earnout calculation, in September 2003 we issued 179,353 shares of our common stock at a per share value of $4.14 (representing the market value of our common stock the day preceding the issuance of the additional shares for the attainment of certain revenue targets). The negative goodwill of approximately $342,000 reduced the recorded basis of property and equipment. This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.

Pursuant to the Conxion Agreement, the shareholders of Conxion received an aggregate of $1.9 million in cash. The acquisition was made to enhance our ability to be a full service provider of applications management services and technology to our customers. The source of funds used for the acquisition of Conxion was our cash on hand. The acquisition price was based on the parties determination of the fair value of Conxion and the terms of the Conxion Agreement were derived from arms-length negotiation among the parties. The purchase price of $2.0 million consisted of the $1.9 million paid to the Conxion shareholders and approximately $106,000 in acquisition costs. The negative goodwill of approximately $2.5 million reduced the recorded basis of property and equipment. This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.

Pursuant to the Agreement, the aggregate purchase price for the Interliant assets was approximately $7.2 million after adjustments, based upon the Debtors adjusted net worth, comprised of approximately $5.8 million in cash, $624,000 in the form of a credit of future distributions to be paid on the Interliant Notes, $550,000 in principal amount of a non-interest bearing, 180-day promissory note, secured by the Interliant Debt and approximately $200,000 in acquisition-related costs. On May 16, 2003, our subsidiary closed on the purchase of all of the Interliant Assets, other than the Debtors accounts receivable. On June 6, 2003 our subsidiary closed on the purchase of the accounts receivable. The source of funds used for the initial closing was our cash on hand combined with the funds provided from and through financing of our accounts receivable with Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), as discussed below, cash acquired with the Interliant assets, and cash receipts from the purchased accounts receivable. The acquisition price was determined through arms-length negotiations and competitive bidding for the Interliant Assets at an auction conducted under the auspices of the Bankruptcy Court. Finalization of the purchase accounting is pending resolution of the net worth calculation. However, we do not believe that any adjustment relating to this matter will be material to our consolidated financial statements.

In a privately negotiated transaction with Fir Tree Recovery Master Fund, LP and Fir Tree Value Partners, LDC, pursuant to an Assignment Agreement dated October 11, 2002 and in a series of open market transactions from certain other third-party holders, we acquired an aggregate principal amount of approximately $36.3 million face value, 10% convertible senior notes (Interliant Notes) due in 2006 of Interliant, Inc. (Interliant) for a total consideration of approximately $2.0 million. Interliant is a provider of managed services, which filed a petition under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the Southern District of New York on August 5, 2002, and we made this investment with the intention of participating in the reorganization/sale of Interliant.
On May 16, 2003, the Southern District of New York (White Plains) confirmed us as the successful bidder for the purchase of the Interliant Assets (see Note 6). We used $624,000 of the value of our
F-22
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Interliant Notes as partial payment for the assets acquired. As such, we have reduced the carrying value of the Interliant Notes by this amount. The final value we will receive for the Interliant Notes has not been determined, however, we estimate the value to approximate the $1.4 million carrying value included in other assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Interliant Estate has filed a plan of liquidation with the bankruptcy court which is subject to creditor approval and resolution of further contested claims.

(9) Debt
(a) Convertible Notes Payable
On September 11, 2002, CMGI and HPFS sold their equity and convertible interests in NaviSite to ClearBlue Technologies, Inc. (ClearBlue). Subsequent to July 31, 2002, we had not paid the interest payable on the Notes due on September 30, 2002. We were also no longer listed on the Nasdaq National Market and were instead listed on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market. Pursuant to the Notes, this new listing on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market requires us to seek ClearBlues prior written consent before paying interest and principal in the form of common stock. On October 10, 2002, we received a waiver from ClearBlue permitting the payment of interest to be made in the form of stock consistent with our listing on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market and the waiver for any noncompliance of timely payments of interest or principal and we paid the interest due to ClearBlue.
On December 12, 2002, ClearBlue gave us the right, at our option, to prepay 100% of the interest accrued at December 12, 2002 on the New Note in shares of our common stock. On December 12, 2002, we paid approximately $1.1 million of interest owing on the balance of the New Note with 317,932 shares of our common stock. In addition, ClearBlue waived all interest for the period December 12, 2002 through December 31, 2003 resulting from the unconverted notes. We recognized an imputed interest charge for this interest free period.
In connection with ClearBlue Finances conversion of $20.0 million of convertible notes to common stock (see Note 2), $10.7 million of the unamortized beneficial conversion related to the converted notes was charged to interest expense during the second fiscal quarter of 2003. As part of the conversion of the converted notes, $469,000 in accrued interest related to the Converted Notes was converted into approximately 141,011 shares of our common stock.
F-23
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
On June 16, 2003, we repaid approximately $3.9 million of the $45.0 million of outstanding New Note payable to ClearBlue Finance with amounts due to us by ClearBlue. The $3.9 million consisted of $1.9 million of intercompany amounts due to us by ClearBlue and a $2.0 million ClearBlue note payable to us. On June 17, 2003, we received written notice from ClearBlue Finance stating its election to convert the remaining $41.2 million of the New Note into 10,559,248 shares of our common stock effective June 19, 2003. Concurrent with the conversion, in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2003 we realized a $21.6 million interest charge for the unamortized beneficial conversion feature related to the converted and repaid convertible notes payable. ClearBlue had previously waived all interest for the period December 12, 2002 through December 31, 2003 on the $45.0 million of convertible notes payable and, accordingly, we had been accruing an imputed interest expense for this period. Subsequent to the conversion, in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2003, we recorded a $2.6 million contribution to additional paid in capital for the imputed accrued interest on the converted and repaid convertible notes payable, as ClearBlue is a related party.
In fiscal year 2002, the Company issued 446,724 shares of common stock in satisfaction of accrued interest associated with the $65.0 million notes payable to CMGI and HPFS.
(b) Accounts Receivable Financing Agreements
On May 26, 2003, we entered into an Accounts Receivable Financing Agreement (Financing Agreement) with SVB whereby we can finance up to a maximum of $12.5 million of our eligible accounts receivables with an 80% advance rate. Under the Financing Agreement, we are required to repay advances upon the earlier of our receipt of payment on the financed accounts receivables from our customers, or the financed accounts receivable being aged greater than ninety days from date of service. The Financing Agreement has a one-year term and bears an annual interest rate of prime rate plus 4.0%, with a minimum $10,000 monthly finance charge. The Financing Agreement also contains certain affirmative and negative covenants and is secured by substantially all of our assets, tangible and intangible. As part of the Financing Agreement, on May 27, 2003 we issued to Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) warrants to purchase up to 165,000 shares of NaviSite common stock with an exercise price of $2.50, the closing price of our stock on the last business day before the issuance of the warrant. We fair valued the warrants at $370,000 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The value of the warrants is being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Financing Agreement. At July 31, 2003, we had $6.7 million outstanding under the Financing Agreement, which represented the maximum borrowings under the Financing Agreement at that time.
(c) Note Payable to Atlantic Investors, LLC (Atlantic)
On January 29, 2003, we entered into a $10.0 million Loan and Security Agreement (Atlantic Loan) with Atlantic, a related party. The Atlantic Loan has a termination date of February 1, 2004 and bears an interest rate of 8% per annum. Interest is payable upon demand or, at Atlantics option, interest may be added to the outstanding balance due to Atlantic by NaviSite. Atlantic may make demand for payment of amounts excess of the minimum Atlantic Loan amount of $2.0 million (Minimum Loan Amount), with 60 days notice, but not such that the payment would be required before February 1, 2004. Atlantic can demand payment of the Minimum Loan Amount with 90 days notice, but not such that payment would be required before August 1, 2003. Under the Atlantic Loan agreement, we can require Atlantic to loan us (1) up to $2.0 million to repay an amount due from CBTM to Unicorn, a related party to NaviSite and Atlantic; (2) $1.0 million for costs associated with our acquisition of Avasta; and (3) up to $500,000 for the post-acquisition working capital needs of Avasta, Atlantic, at its sole and absolute discretion, may advance other amounts to us such that the aggregate amount borrowed by NaviSite does not exceed the maximum loan amount, defined as the lesser of $10.0 million or 65% of our consolidated accounts receivables. On May 30, 2003 we repaid $2.0 million of the approximate $3.0 million outstanding under the Atlantic Loan and on June 11, 2003, we borrowed $2.0 million under the Atlantic Loan. At July 31,

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
2003, we had $3.0 million outstanding under the Atlantic Loan. This amount is shown as Current Note Payable to Related Party on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Atlantic Loan is secured by all of our receivables.
(d) Note Payable to the AppliedTheory Estate
As part of CBTMs acquisition of certain AppliedTheory assets, CBTM entered into a long-term liability of $6.0 million (Estate Liability) due to the AppliedTheory Estate in June 10, 2006. The Estate Liability bears interest at 8% per annum, which is due and payable at the termination date of the Estate Liability. At July 31, 2003, we had approximately $80,000 in accrued interest related to this note.
(e) Notes Payable to the Interliant Estate
As part of our acquisition of certain Interliant Assets, we entered into a promissory note with the Interliant Estate (Interliant Promissory Note) in the amount of $550,000, payable without interest on the earlier of (i) the 180th day following the Second Closing Date or (ii) the date Interliant estates make distributions to their general unsecured creditors. The Interliant Promissory Note is secured by the Interliant Notes (see Note 6).
(10) Commitments and Contingencies
(a) Leases
Abandoned Leased Facilities. On January 31, 2003, we abandoned our administrative space on the second floor of our 400 Minuteman Road, Andover, MA leased location. We continue to maintain and operate our Data Center on the first floor of the building, which also serves as our corporate headquarters. While we remain obligated under the terms of the lease for the rent and other costs associated with the second floor of the building, we ceased to use the space on January 31, 2003 and have no foreseeable plans to occupy the second floor in the future. Therefore, in accordance with SFAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, issued in July 2002, we recorded a charge to our current earnings in fiscal year 2003 of approximately $5.4 million to recognize the costs of exiting the space. The amount is included in the caption Impairment and restructuring in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. The liability is equal to the total amount of rent and other direct costs for the period of time the second floor of the building was expected to remain unoccupied plus the present value of the amount by which the rent paid by us to the landlord exceeds any rent paid to us by a tenant under a sublease over the remainder of the lease term, which is May 2011.
Near the end of our fiscal year 2002, we abandoned our sales office space in La Jolla, CA. At that time we were able to sublet the space to a third party. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2003, the sublease tenant stopped making payments under the sublease and has abandoned the space. The facility is currently empty and we remain obligated under the terms of the lease for the rent and other costs associated with the building. We have no foreseeable plans to occupy the space, therefore, under SFAS 146, we recorded a charge to our earnings of approximately $1.4 million to recognize the costs of exiting the building. The amount is included in the caption Impairment and restructuring in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. We are actively pursuing options for subleasing or otherwise terminating the lease, but have not reached any agreement at this time. We believe it is more likely than not that we will be able to sublet the building to a tenant at, at a rate below our current rent rate or will have otherwise ended the lease via a lease termination agreement, by January 2004. As such, we have recorded a liability equal to the present value of our estimated future payments.

We are obligated under various capital and operating leases for facilities and equipment. CMGI had entered into non-cancelable operating and capital leases on our behalf covering certain of our office facilities and equipment, which expire through 2012. In addition, until we moved our headquarters in January 2000, we paid CMGI for office facilities used as our headquarters for which we were charged based upon an allocation of the total costs for the facilities at market rates. Prior to our IPO, substantially all leases for real property were guaranteed by CMGI. CMGI charged us the actual lease fees under these arrangements. Our total rent expense amounted to $10.2 million, $19.6 million, and $58.5 million for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively. In June 2000, we sold certain equipment and leasehold improvements in our data centers in a sale-leaseback transaction to a bank for approximately $30.0 million. We entered into a capital lease for the leaseback of those assets. In January 2001, we paid-off these capital lease obligations for approximately $27.0 million. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2001, we sold certain equipment in sale-leaseback transactions for a total of approximately $13.9 million. Simultaneously with the sales, we entered into operating leases for the equipment.
During fiscal 2002, we renegotiated or bought out the majority of the operating lease obligations for equipment.

(b) Legal Matters
On or about June 13, 2001, Stuart Werman and Lynn McFarlane filed a lawsuit against us, BancBoston Robertson Stephens, an underwriter of our initial public offering in October 1999, Joel B. Rosen, our then chief executive officer, and Kenneth W. Hale, our then chief financial officer. The suit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The suit generally alleges that the defendants violated federal securities laws by not disclosing certain actions allegedly taken by Robertson Stephens in connection with our initial public offering. The suit alleges specifically that Robertson Stephens, in exchange for the allocation to its customers of shares of our common stock sold in our initial public offering, solicited and received from its customers agreements to purchase additional shares of our common stock in the aftermarket at pre-determined prices. The suit seeks unspecified monetary damages and certification of a plaintiff class consisting of all persons who acquired shares of our common stock between October 22, 1999 and December 6, 2000. Three other substantially similar lawsuits were filed between June 15, 2001 and July 10, 2001 by Moses Mayer (filed June 15, 2001), Barry Feldman (filed June 19, 2001), and Binh Nguyen (filed July 10, 2001). Robert E. Eisenberg, our president at the time of the initial public offering in 1999, also was named as a defendant in the Nguyen lawsuit.
On or about June 21, 2001, David Federico filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York a lawsuit against us, Mr. Rosen, Mr. Hale, Robertson Stephens and other underwriter defendants including J.P. Morgan Chase, First Albany Companies, Inc., Bank of America Securities, LLC, Bear Stearns & Co., Inc., B.T. Alex. Brown, Inc., Chase Securities, Inc., CIBC World Markets, Credit Suisse First Boston Corp., Dain Rauscher, Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc., The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., J.P. Morgan & Co., J.P. Morgan Securities, Lehman Brothers, Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Inc., Morgan Stanley Dean Witter & Co., Robert Fleming, Inc. and Salomon Smith Barney, Inc. The suit generally alleges that the defendants violated the anti-trust laws and the federal securities laws by conspiring and agreeing to raise and increase the compensation received by the underwriter defendants by requiring those who received allocation of initial public offering stock to agree to purchase shares of manipulated securities in the after-market of the initial public offering at escalating price levels designed to inflate the price of the manipulated stock, thus artificially creating an appearance of demand and high prices for that stock, and initial public offering stock in general, leading to further stock offerings. The suit also alleges that the defendants arranged for the underwriter defendants to receive undisclosed and excessive brokerage commissions and that, as a consequence, the underwriter defendants successfully increased investor interest in the manipulated initial public offering of securities and increased the underwriter defendants individual and collective underwritings, compensation, and revenues. The suit further alleges that the defendants violated the federal securities laws by issuing and selling securities pursuant to the initial public offering without disclosing to investors that the underwriter defendants in the offering, including the lead underwriters, had solicited and received excessive and undisclosed commissions from certain investors. The suit seeks unspecified monetary damages and certification of a plaintiff class consisting of all persons who acquired shares of our common stock between October 22, 1999 and June 12, 2001.
Those five cases, along with lawsuits naming more than 300 other issuers and over 50 investment banks which have been sued in substantially similar lawsuits, have been assigned to the Honorable Shira A. Scheindlin (the Court) for all pretrial purposes (the IPO Securities Litigation). On September 6, 2001, the Court entered an order consolidating the five individual cases involving us and designating Werman v. NaviSite, Inc., et al., Civil Action No. 01-CV-5374 as the lead case. A consolidated, amended complaint was filed thereafter on April 19, 2002 (the Class Action Litigation) on behalf of plaintiffs
F-27
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Arvid Brandstrom and Tony Tse against underwriter defendants Robertson Stephens (as successor-in-interest to BancBoston), BancBoston, J.P. Morgan (as successor-in-interest to Hambrecht & Quist), Hambrecht & Quist and First Albany and against us and Messrs. Rosen, Hale and Eisenberg (collectively, the NaviSite Defendants). Plaintiffs uniformly allege that all defendants, including the NaviSite Defendants, violated the federal securities laws (i.e., Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act, Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5) by issuing and selling our common stock pursuant to the October 22, 1999, initial public offering, without disclosing to investors that some of the underwriters of the offering, including the lead underwriters, had solicited and received extensive and undisclosed agreements from certain investors to purchase aftermarket shares at pre-arranged, escalating prices and also to receive additional commissions and/or other compensation from those investors. At this time, plaintiffs have not specified the amount of damages they are seeking in the Class Action Litigation.
Between July and September 2002, the parties to the IPO Securities Litigation briefed motions to dismiss filed by the underwriter defendants and the issuer defendants, including NaviSite. On November 1, 2002, the Court held oral argument on the motions to dismiss. The plaintiffs have since agreed to dismiss the claims against Messrs. Rosen, Hale and Eisenberg without prejudice, in return for their agreement to toll any statute of limitations applicable to those claims. By stipulation entered by the Court on November 18, 2002, Messrs. Rosen, Hale and Eisenberg were dismissed without prejudice from the Class Action Litigation. On February 19, 2003, an opinion and order was issued on defendants motion to dismiss the IPO Securities Litigation, essentially denying the motions to dismiss of all 55 underwriter defendants and of 185 of the 301 issuer defendants.
We believe that the allegations against us are without merit and we intend to vigorously defend against the plaintiffs claims. We are not able to predict the possible outcome of the suits and their ultimate effect, if any, on our financial condition.
In March 2001, we engaged Goldman Sachs & Co. to serve as our financial advisor in connection with the possible sale of all or a portion of NaviSite. On September 17, 2002, Goldman made a written demand for payment of a $3 million success fee in connection with the September 2002 acquisition by ClearBlue of the stock and convertible debt of NaviSite from CMGI and Hewlett-Packard Financial Services Company. We have rejected Goldmans demands, as we believe they are without merit. No legal actions have been filed concerning the Goldman claim. As this matter is in the initial stage, we are not able to predict the possible outcome of this matter and the effect, if any, on our financial condition.
On or about September 27, 2002, we received a demand for a wage payment of $850,000 from our former Procurement Director, Joseph Cloonan. We rejected the demand, alleging that Mr. Cloonans claim is based, among other things, on a potentially fraudulent contract. Mr. Cloonan also claimed $40,300 for allegedly unpaid accrued vacation and bonuses and that he may be statutorily entitled to treble damages and legal fees. On October 11, 2002, NaviSite filed a civil complaint with the Massachusetts Superior Court, Essex County, seeking a declaratory judgment and asserting claims against Mr. Cloonan for civil fraud, misrepresentation, unjust enrichment and breach of duty of loyalty. We believe the allegations are without merit and intend to vigorously defend against Mr. Cloonans claims. As the litigation is in the initial discovery stage, we are not able to predict the possible outcome of this matter and the effect, if any, on our financial condition.
On October 28, 2002, ClearBlue Technologies Management, Inc., one of our subsidiaries, filed a complaint in United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Lighthouse International, alleging six causes of action for copyright infringement, breach of contract, account stated, unjust enrichment, unfair competition, and misappropriation and/or conversion. The total claimed damages are in the amount of $1.9 million. On or about January 16, 2003, Lighthouse filed and served its answer and counterclaimed against ClearBlue Technologies Management, Inc. claiming $3.1 million in damages and $5.0 million in punitive relief.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
On June 17, 2003, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York heard oral argument on Lighthouses Motion for an Order Compelling the Debtor (AppliedTheory) to Assume or Reject an Agreement, filed in response to ClearBlue Technologies Management, Inc.s. complaint, and the objections to Lighthouses motion filed by ClearBlue Technologies Management and AppliedTheory. Lighthouse made this motion on the basis that it never received notice of ClearBlue Technologies Management assuming the AppliedTheory contract for the LighthouseLink Web site. The Bankruptcy Court declined to grant Lighthouses motion, and instead ordered that an evidentiary hearing be conducted to determine whether Lighthouse received appropriate notice of the proposed assignment of the contract by AppliedTheory to ClearBlue Technologies Management. The Bankruptcy Court ordered that the parties first conduct discovery, and upon completion of discovery, which is expected to be completed on or about the end of November 2003, the Bankruptcy Court would schedule an evidentiary hearing on the issue of notice.
As to the U.S. District Court matter, the exchange of written discovery is near completion, with a number of discovery disputes to be resolved by the Court in October 2003 at a discovery status conference. All depositions of witnesses have been stayed pending completion of the Bankruptcy Court evidentiary hearing. Because of the continuing discovery, and the uncertain outcome of the evidentiary hearing before the Bankruptcy Court, we are not able to predict the possible outcome of this matter, if any, on our financial condition.
On December 12, 2002, our Board of Directors, pursuant to authority previously granted by our stockholders at the annual meeting of stockholders held on December 19, 2001, approved a reverse stock split of our common stock at a ratio of one-for-fifteen (1:15) (the Reverse Split). The Reverse Split was effective on January 7, 2003. On May 28, 2003 we received a letter from Mr. Edward W. Roberts, as trustee of The Roberts Family Trust, stating that in June 2002 the trust had purchased 13,000 shares of our common stock and due to the Reverse Split, the trust now owns 866 shares of common stock (i.e. 13,000 shares divided by 15). As a result of the Reverse Split, Mr. Roberts states an intention to institute a derivative action requesting $7.5 million in damages. On October 20, 2003, we received a letter dated October 13, 2003, from Mr. Robertson, as trustee on behalf of The Roberts Family Trust, stating his intention to prove conspiracy and collusion relating to the September 11, 2002 transactions between ClearBlue Technologies, Inc. and Hewlett-Packard Financial Services Company and relating to the later Reverse Split. No legal actions have been filed concerning this matter. This matter is in its initial stages and we are not able to predict the possible outcome of this matter, and the effect, if any, on our financial condition. We believe the claim is without merit and intend to vigorously defend any action that may be brought against us.
On October 14, 2003, we received a letter purportedly on behalf of the former stockholders of Avasta relating to the issuance of additional shares of common stock pursuant to the earnout calculations pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization dated as of January 29, 2003 among Avasta Corp., Avasta, Inc. and NaviSite. No legal actions have been filed concerning this matter. As this matter is in the initial stage, we are not able to predict the possible outcome of this matter and the effect, if any, on our financial condition.
We are also subject to other legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of our business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not materially affect our consolidated financial position or results from our operations.
(11) Income Taxes
Prior to the initial public offering on October 21, 1999, we were greater than 80% owned by CMGI, and as such, CMGI realized the full benefit of all federal and part of the state net operating losses that had been incurred by us for those periods before the fiscal year ended July 31, 2001. Therefore, such net
F-29
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
operating losses incurred by NaviSite were not available to us. The tax sharing agreement between NaviSite and CMGI required us to reimburse CMGI for the amounts it contributed to the consolidated tax liability of the CMGI group; however, under the policy, CMGI was not obligated to reimburse us for any losses utilized in the consolidated CMGI group. After our public offering, CMGIs ownership fell below 80% and we were no longer included in the federal consolidated group of CMGI. Thus, our federal and state net operating losses can be carried forward to offset our future taxable income.
Total federal and state income tax expenses (benefit) for the periods ending July 31, 2003, July 31, 2002, and July 31, 2001, consist of the following:

Valuation allowance decreased by $84.2 million and increased by $47.0 million for the years ended July 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets since management believes that, after considering all the available objective evidence, both positive and negative, historical and prospective, with greater weight given to historical evidence, it is not more likely than not that these assets will be realized.
As a result of the transaction on September 11, 2002, the Company experienced a change in ownership as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result of the change in ownership, the utilization of its federal and state tax net operating losses generated prior to the transaction is subject
F-30
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
to an annual limitation of approximately $1.2 million. As a result of this limitation, the Company expects that a substantial portion its federal and state net operating loss carryforwards will expire unused.
The company has net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state tax purposes of approximately $50.2 million, after taking into consideration net operating losses expected to expire unused due to the Section 382 limitation. The federal net operating loss carryforwards will expire from fiscal year 2011 to fiscal year 2023.
(12) Stockholders Equity
(a) Issuance of Common Stock
On December 12, 2002, ClearBlue cancelled warrants to purchase 346,883 shares of our common stock at an exercise price ranging from $86.55 to $103.80 per share.
The 567,978 shares issued to ClearBlue on December 31, 2002 in connection with the acquisition of CBTM have been accounted for by us as a dividend distribution to ClearBlue because ClearBlue and its affiliates are considered to have controlling interest over both CBTM and NaviSite. As a result, we reported a reduction of retained earnings of $1.3 million, which represents the number of common shares issued at the then current market value of $2.25 per share.
On February 5, 2003, we issued 231,039 shares of our common stock at a per share value of $1.60 in connection with the acquisition of Avasta (see Note 6). In September 2003 we issued 179,353 shares of our common stock at a per share value of $4.14 (representing the market value of our common stock the day preceding the issuance of the addition shares) for the attainment of certain revenue targets in conjunction with the Avasta acquisition.
(13) Stock Option Plans
(a) 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the Stock Purchase Plan) was adopted by NaviSites board of directors and stockholders in October 1999. The Stock Purchase Plan provides for the issuance of a maximum of 16,666 shares of our common stock. The Plan allows participants to purchase shares at 85% of the closing price of common stock on the first business day of the Plan period or the last business day of the Plan period, whichever closing price is less. During fiscal year 2002, no additional shares were issued under this plan.
During fiscal year 2003, no additional shares were issued under this plan. We issued a total of 16,657 shares since the plans inception.
(b) Deferred Compensation Plan
A Deferred Compensation Plan (the Deferred Compensation Plan) was adopted by NaviSites board of directors in October 1999. Under the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan, our employees who are selected by the board of directors (as well as certain of our employees who previously participated in a deferred compensation plan sponsored by CMGI) will be able to elect to defer a portion of their compensation for the following calendar year. We also may make discretionary contributions to a participants account, to which the participant generally will become entitled after five years of service with us. Effective December 18, 2001, the plan was terminated. During 2001 and through the termination date in 2002, we did not make any discretionary contributions to the plan.
F-31
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(c) 1999 Director Stock Option Plan
In October 1999, NaviSite ceased issuing options under the 1998 Director Plan and the board of directors and the stockholders approved and adopted the 1999 Stock Option Plan for Non-employee Directors (the 1999 Director Plan). A total of 33,333 shares of Common Stock are reserved for issuance under the 1999 Director Plan. Directors who are not NaviSite employees or otherwise affiliates, employees or designees of an institutional or corporate investor that owns more than 5% of outstanding Common Stock will be eligible to receive non-statutory stock options under the 1999 Director Plan. On March 5, 2002, the 1999 Director Plan was amended to increase the initial options granted to each eligible director to 3,333 shares from the original 1,667 shares and to increase the subsequent annual grants to directors to 667 shares from the original 417 shares.
The board of directors has discretion to increase to up to 6,667 shares the number of shares of Common Stock subject to any initial option or additional option covering any vesting period of up to 48 months that may be granted to an eligible director after the date of the increase.
During fiscal year 2003 no options were granted and there were no outstanding options under this plan. Upon the approval of the 2003 Plan by NaviSites stockholders, no further option grants shall be made under the 1999 Director Plan.
(d) 1998 Director Stock Option Plan
In December 1998, NaviSites board of directors and stockholders approved the 1998 Director Stock Option Plan (the 1998 Director Plan). In October 1999, we ceased issuing options under the 1998 Director Plan. Upon the adoption of the 1999 Director Plan, each NaviSite director (who is not also an employee of NaviSite, any subsidiary of NaviSite or of CMGI) was entitled to receive, upon the date of his or her election, a non-statutory option to purchase Common Stock as defined. A maximum number of 16,666 shares of Common Stock were authorized for issuance under the 1998 Director Plan. Each automatic grant had an exercise price equal to the current fair market value of the Common Stock at the time of grant and a maximum term of ten years, subject to earlier termination following the optionees cessation of service on the board of directors.
During fiscal 2003, no options were granted and no options were outstanding under the 1998 Director Plan.
(e) NaviSite 2000 Stock Option Plan
In November 2000, NaviSites board of directors approved the 2000 Stock Option Plan (the Plan). Under the Plan, nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options may be granted to NaviSites employees, other than those who are also officers or directors, and our consultants and advisors, as defined, up to a maximum number of shares of Common Stock not to exceed 66,666 shares. The board of directors administers this plan, selects the individuals who are eligible to be granted options under the Plan and determines the number of shares and exercise price of each option. Options granted under the Plan have a five-year maximum term and typically vest over a one-year period. Upon the approval of the 2003 Plan by
F-32

NaviSites stockholders, no further option grants shall be made under the Plan. The following table reflects activity of stock options under our Plan for the year ended July 31, 2003:

(f) NaviSite 1998 Equity Incentive Plan
In December 1998, NaviSites board of directors and stockholders approved the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the 1998 Plan). The 1998 Plan replaced NaviSite Internet Services Corporations 1997 Equity Incentive Plan (the 1997 Plan). All options outstanding under the 1997 Plan were cancelled and replaced with an equivalent amount of options issued in accordance with the 1998 Plan. Under the original 1998 Plan, nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options may be granted to NaviSites or its affiliates employees, directors, and consultants, as defined, up to a maximum number of shares of Common Stock not to exceed 333,333 shares. In August 1999, the board of directors approved an increase in the number of shares authorized under the 1998 Plan to 741,628. In December 2000, the board of directors approved an additional increase in the number of shares authorized under the 1998 Plan to 1,000,000 shares. The board of directors administers this plan, selects the individuals who are eligible to be granted options under the 1998 Plan and determines the number of shares and exercise price of each option. The chief executive officer, upon authority granted by the board of directors, is authorized to approve the grant of options to purchase Common Stock under the 1998 Plan to certain persons. Options are granted at fair market value. Options granted under the 1998 Plan have a five-year maximum term and typically vest over a four year period, with 25% of options granted becoming exercisable one year from the date of grant and the remaining 75% vesting monthly for the next thirty-six (36) months. Upon the approval of the 2003 Plan by NaviSites stockholders, no further option grants shall be made under the

(g) NaviSite 2003 Stock Option Plan
On July 10, 2003, the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2003 Plan) was approved by the Board of Directors. The 2003 Plan has not yet been approved by NaviSites Stockholders. The 2003 Plan provides that stock options or restricted stock awards may be granted to employees, officers, directors, consultants, and advisors or NaviSite (or any present or future parent or subsidiary corporations and any other business venture (including, without limitation, joint venture or limited liability company) in which NaviSite has a controlling interest, as determined by the Board of Directors of NaviSite) The board of directors has authorized 2,600,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2003 Plan.
The 2003 Plan is administered by the Board of Directors of NaviSite or any committee to which the Board delegates its powers under the 2003 Plan. Subject to the provisions of the 2003 Plan, the Board of Directors will determine the terms of each award, including the number of shares of common stock subject to the award and the exercise thereof.
F-34
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, amend, modify or terminate any award granted or made under the 2003 Plan, so long as such amendment, modification or termination would not materially and adversely affect the participant. The Board of Directors may also provide that any stock option shall become immediately exercisable, in full or in part, or that any restricted stock granted under the 2003 Plan shall be free of some or all restrictions.
As of July 31, 2003, stock options to purchase 2,272,000 shares of common stock at an average exercise price of $2.55 per share were outstanding under the 2003 Plan. During fiscal year 2003, no options were exercised or cancelled. The options do not become exercisable until the stockholders of the Company have duly approved the plan. Once approved, the options will become exercisable as to 25% of the original number of shares on grant date and thereafter in equal amounts monthly over the three year period commencing on the grant date.
(h) CMGI 1986 Stock Option Plan
Certain NaviSite employees have been granted options for the purchase of CMGI Common Stock under the CMGI 1986 Stock Option Plan (the 1986 Plan). Options under the 1986 Plan are granted at fair market value on the date of grant and are generally exercisable in equal cumulative installments over a four-to-ten year period beginning one year after the date of grant. Outstanding options under the 1986 Plan expire through 2007. Under the 1986 Plan, nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options may be granted to CMGIs or its subsidiaries employees, as defined. The board of directors of CMGI administers this plan, selects the individuals to whom options will be granted and determines the number of shares and exercise price of each option.
The following table reflects activity and historical exercise prices of stock options granted to NaviSite employees under the 1986 Plan for the three years ended July 31, 2003. Options held by employees who transferred to NaviSite from CMGI or CMGI subsidiaries kept their CMGI options and during fiscal year 2003, 2002 and 2001 are shown as transfers into the 1986 plan. Employees that transferred to CMGI from an affiliate could not keep their affiliate options.
On September 11, 2002 each of CMGI and Hewlett-Packard Financial Services Company (HPFS) sold and transferred to ClearBlue Technologies, Inc. (ClearBlue), a privately-held managed service provider based in San Francisco, California equity and debt interests. Due to this transaction, NaviSite employees had 30 days from September 11, 2002 to exercise vested CMGI options. There were no options exercised and subsequently all outstanding options were cancelled.
The following table summarizes information about stock options granted NaviSite employees under the 1986 Plan outstanding at July 31, 2003:

(i) Other Stock Option Grants |
At July 31, 2003, we had 2,665 outstanding stock options issued outside of existing plans to certain directors at an average exercise price of $135.56. These stock options were fully vested on the grant date and have a contractual life of 10 years.
(j) Other Disclosure |
SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123), sets forth a fair-value based method of recognizing stock-based compensation expense. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, we have elected to continue to apply APB No. 25 to account for the stock-based compensation plans in which NaviSites employees participate.
(14) Related Party Transactions
For the period August 1, 2002 through September 11, 2002, we classified revenue from CMGI and CMGI affiliates as revenue from related parties. For the period September 12, 2002 through July 31, 2003, we classified revenue from CMGI and CMGI affiliates as third-party revenue.
The consolidated financial statements include certain allocations from CMGI for certain general and administrative expenses, such as rent, legal services, insurance, and employee benefits. Allocations are based primarily on headcount. Management believes that the method used to allocate the costs and expenses is reasonable; however, such allocated amounts may or may not necessarily be indicative of what actual expenses would have been incurred had we operated independently of CMGI. As a result of CMGIs sale of its debt and equity interests in us, the agreement between NaviSite and CMGI whereby CMGI provided certain services for us automatically terminated. CMGI continued to provide certain services to us pursuant to a Transition Services Agreement we entered into with CMGI on November 25, 2002, as we transitioned to services agreements with ClearBlue and to other third-party suppliers. This transition agreement concluded during the second quarter of fiscal year 2003 and we have completely severed our administrative ties with CMGI; however, CMGI remains a third-party customer. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2003, we contracted with ClearBlue and third-party suppliers for these services. We currently rent administrative facilities from CMGI at 800 Federal Street, Andover, Massachusetts.
On December 31, 2002, CBTM was required to pay a $6.1 million liability owed to the AppliedTheory Estate as a result of CBTMs acquisition of AppliedTheory. In order to fund the $6.1 million payment, CBTM entered into a $6.0 million line of credit with Unicorn Worldwide Holding Limited (Unicorn), a related party to NaviSite and CBTM. CBTM drew down $4.6 million and together with cash on hand at December 31, 2002, paid the $6.1 million liability due to the AppliedTheory Estate. In January 2003, CBTM paid $2.6 million of the $4.6 million due to Unicorn, leaving a liability to Unicorn of $2.0 million at January 31, 2003. In January 2003, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Atlantic and in February 2003, drew down on this facility to pay off the remaining $2.0 million due Unicorn by CBTM. CBTM has a long-term liability of $6.0 million (Estate Liability) due to the AppliedTheory Estate in June 10, 2006. The Estate Liability bears interest at 8% per annum, which is due and payable at the termination date of the Estate Liability.
Beginning January 1, 2003, we entered into an Outsourcing Agreement with ClearBlue whereby we provided certain management services as well as manage the day-to-day operations of ClearBlues data centers. We charge ClearBlue actual costs incurred plus a 5% mark-up on labor costs only. In fiscal year 2003, we charged ClearBlue approximately $270,000 under this agreement. This amount is included in other income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. In connection with the Outsourcing Agreement, we entered into two loan arrangements, one whereby we will loan amounts to ClearBlue for
F-36
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
working capital needs (NaviSite Loan) and one whereby ClearBlue will loan amounts to NaviSite for working capital needs (ClearBlue Loan). The two loans may be drawn down upon, at the sole discretion of the lender, up to a maximum aggregate amount of $2.0 million per note. ClearBlue owed us approximately $1.9 million at April 30, 2003 under the NaviSite Loan. In addition to the amount due under the NaviSite loan, ClearBlue owed certain amounts to CBTM at the time of CBTMs sale to NaviSite. On June 2, 2003, we amended the NaviSite Loan to increase the borrowing facility, on a temporary basis, to $2.3 million and loaned an additional $200,000 to ClearBlue. The additional $200,000 funding to ClearBlue was repaid to us on June 6, 2003. On June 16, 2003, we used $3.9 million of the amounts due to us by ClearBlue to pay down a portion of our $45.0 million outstanding on the New Note.
On January 29, 2003, we entered into a $10 million Loan and Security Agreement (Atlantic Loan) with Atlantic, a related party. The Atlantic Loan has a termination date of February 1, 2004 and bears an interest rate of 8% per annum. Interest is payable upon demand or, at Atlantics option, interest may be added to the outstanding balance due to Atlantic by NaviSite. Atlantic may make demand for payment of amounts in excess of the minimum Atlantic Loan amount of $2.0 million (Minimum Loan Amount), with 60 days notice, but not such that the payment would be required before February 1, 2003. Atlantic can demand payment of the Minimum Loan Amount with 90 days notice, but not such that payment would be required before August 1, 2003. Under the Atlantic Loan agreement, we can require Atlantic to loan us (1) up to $2.0 million to repay an amount due from CBTM to Unicorn, a related party to NaviSite and Atlantic; (2) $1.0 million for costs associated with our acquisition of Avasta; and (3) up to $500,000 for the post-acquisition working capital needs of Avasta. Atlantic, at its sole and absolute discretion, may advance other amounts to us such that the aggregate amount borrowed by NaviSite does not exceed the maximum loan amount, defined as the lesser of $10.0 million or 65% of our consolidated accounts receivables. At July 31, 2003, we had $3.0 million outstanding under the Atlantic Loan and had approximately $500,000 available to us. This amount is shown as Due to Affiliate on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Atlantic Loan is secured by all of our receivables. On May 30, 2003 we repaid $2.0 million of the approximate $3.0 million outstanding under the Atlantic Loan and on June 11, 2003, we borrowed $2.0 million under the Atlantic Loan.

(16) | Subsequent Events |
On August 8, 2003, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and the assumption of certain liabilities of ClearBlue Technologies, Inc. pursuant to a Stock and Asset Acquisition Agreement (the CBT Agreement). Pursuant to the CBT Agreement, we acquired all outstanding shares of six (6) wholly-owned subsidiaries of ClearBlue Technologies, Inc. with data centers located in Chicago, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, Oakbrook and Vienna.
In addition, we exercised effective control over and assumed the revenue and expenses, as of the date of the CBT Agreement, of four (4) additional wholly-owned subsidiaries of ClearBlue Technologies, Inc. with data centers located in Dallas, New York, San Francisco and Santa Clara. Ownership of these subsidiaries will automatically be transferred, under certain conditions, to us for no additional consideration in February 2004.
In exchange for these subsidiaries and certain assets and contracts relating to them, we: (i) issued 1.1 million shares of our common stock, to ClearBlue Technologies, Inc.; (ii) released ClearBlue Technologies, Inc. from certain inter-company advances in an amount up to $300,000; (iii) assumed all of ClearBlue Technologies, Inc.s obligations under certain assets and contracts relating to the these subsidiaries; and (iv) released ClearBlue Technologies, Inc. from certain payment obligations owed to us pursuant to the Outsourcing Agreement in an amount not to exceed $263,000. The financial statement impacts have been reflected in these restated financial statements to account for this business combination of entities under common control in a manner similar to a pooling-of-interest.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Under date of October 21, 2003, we reported on the consolidated balance sheets of NaviSite, Inc. as of July 31, 2003 and 2002 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the fiscal years in the three-year period ended July 31, 2003, which are included in this Form S-2. In connection with our audits of the aforementioned consolidated financial statements, we also audited the related consolidated financial statement schedule of Valuation and Qualifying Accounts in this Form S-2. This financial statement schedule is the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement schedule based on our audits. In our opinion, such financial statement schedule when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
The audit report on the consolidated financial statements of NaviSite, Inc. referred to above contains an explanatory paragraph that states that the Companys recurring losses since inception and accumulated deficit, as well as other factors, raise substantial doubt about the entitys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statement schedule does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NAVISITE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
1. | Description of Business |
NaviSite, Inc. provides a broad range of outsourced hosting and managed application services for middle-market organizations, which include mid-sized companies, divisions of large multi-national companies and government agencies. Our service offerings allow our customers to outsource the hosting and management of their information technology infrastructure and applications, such as commerce systems, enterprise software applications and email. Substantially all of our revenue is generated from customers in the United States.
2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
(a) | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by NaviSite, Inc. (NaviSite, we, us or our) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. It is suggested that the interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 22, 2003 and elsewhere in this Information Statement.
The information furnished reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are of a normal recurring nature and are considered necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items. It should be noted that results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or any future period.
The preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
One-for-fifteen Reverse Stock Split
On December 12, 2002, our board of directors, pursuant to authority previously granted by our stockholders at the annual meeting on December 19, 2001, approved a reverse stock split of our common stock at a ratio of one-for-fifteen (1:15) effective January 7, 2003. All per share amounts and number of shares outstanding have been restated to give effect to the reverse stock split.
Impact of Acquisitions
On August 8, 2003, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and the assumption of certain liabilities of ClearBlue Technologies, Inc. (CBT) pursuant to a Stock and Asset Acquisition Agreement (the CBT Agreement). We acquired all outstanding shares of six (6) wholly owned subsidiaries of CBT with data centers located in Chicago, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, Oakbrook and Vienna. In addition, we assumed the revenue and expense, as of the date of acquisition, of four (4) additional wholly owned subsidiaries of CBT with data centers located in Dallas, New York, San Francisco and Santa Clara (collectively the Four Subsidiaries or the Deferred Entities). Ownership of these subsidiaries was to be automatically transferred, under certain conditions, to NaviSite for no additional consideration in February 2004 (the CBT Agreement was amended in February 2004, as described below). The operational
F-44
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
results of the Four Subsidiaries have been included herein since NaviSite exercised effective control over these subsidiaries as of August 8, 2003.
As Atlantic Investors, LLC had a controlling interest in both NaviSite and CBT at the time of the combination, the transaction was accounted for as a combination of entities under common control (i.e., as if pooling) whereby the assets and liabilities of CBT and NaviSite were combined at their historical amounts. Accordingly, our consolidated financial statements have been restated for all periods prior to the business combination to include CBTs financial results beginning on September 11, 2002, the date on which CBT acquired the controlling interest in NaviSite, after the elimination of intercompany balances. See Note 6 for further discussion of our fiscal year 2003 and 2004 acquisitions.
On February 6, 2004, we entered into an amendment to the CBT Agreement (the Amendment) by and among NaviSite, CBT and certain of CBTs wholly owned subsidiaries. The Amendment amended the CBT Agreement dated August 8, 2003 to extend the date by which we are able to cause the transfer to us of the Deferred Entities, from February 8, 2004 to anytime on or prior to August 8, 2005 (the Transfer Date), under certain conditions and for no additional consideration. In consideration for such Amendment, we agreed to operate and manage the Deferred Entities in a manner consistent with the CBT Agreement.
On March 12, 2004, we had initially rejected the Santa Clara data center subsidiary, pursuant to our right under the acquisition agreement; however, on April 12, 2004, prior to the expiration of the thirty-day notification period, we revoked this rejection. On April 14, 2004, pursuant to the Amendment, NaviSite exercised its right to acquire from CBT all of the outstanding shares of the Deferred Entities, for no additional consideration. We will continue to consolidate, as part of our consolidated financial statements, the results of each of these four subsidiaries.
(b) | Principles of Consolidation |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NaviSite, Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiaries, ClickHear, Inc., NaviSite Acquisition Corp., ClearBlue Technologies Management, Inc., Avasta, Inc., Conxion Corporation, Intrepid Acquisition Corp., ClearBlue Technologies/Chicago-Wells, Inc., ClearBlue Technologies/Las Vegas, Inc., ClearBlue Technologies/Los Angeles, Inc., ClearBlue Technologies/Milwaukee, Inc., ClearBlue Technologies/Oakbrook, Inc., and ClearBlue Technologies/Vienna, Inc., ClearBlue Technologies/New York, Inc., ClearBlue Technologies/ Dallas, Inc., ClearBlue Technologies/ Santa Clara, Inc. and ClearBlue Technologies/San Francisco, Inc. after elimination of all significant intercompany balances and transactions.
(c) | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include the useful lives of fixed assets and intangible assets, recoverability of long-lived assets and the collectability of receivables.
(d) | Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash |
Cash equivalents consist of a money market fund, which invests in high quality short-term debt obligations, including commercial paper, asset-backed commercial paper, corporate bonds, U.S. government agency obligations, taxable municipal securities, and repurchase agreements. The
F-45
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Company had restricted cash of $1.3 million and $3.1 million at April 30, 2004 and July 31, 2003, respectively, which represents a cash collateral requirement for standby letters of credit associated with several of the Companys facility and equipment leases. Restricted cash declined by $1.8 million during the nine months ended April 30, 2004, as the result of letters of credit that have expired, been drawn down or canceled due to lease modifications.
(e) | Revenue Recognition |
Revenue consists of monthly fees for Web site and Internet application management, application rentals, hosting, co-location, and professional services. Revenue (other than installation fees) is billed and recognized over the term of the contract, generally one to three years, based on actual usage. Payments received in advance of providing services are deferred until the period such services are provided. Revenue from professional services is recognized on a time-and-material basis as the services are performed or under the percentage of completion method for revenue relating to fixed-price contracts. We generally sell our professional services under contracts with terms ranging from one to five years. Revenue and profits on long-term Internet solutions contracts, which represent approximately 2% of total revenue for the three and nine-month periods ended April 30, 2004, performed over extended periods are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, with adjustments recorded in the period in which the revisions are made. Any anticipated losses on contracts are charged to operations as soon as they are determinable.
(f) | Concentrations of Credit Risk |
Our financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, obligations under capital leases, software agreements, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. As of April 30, 2004, the carrying cost of these instruments approximated their fair value. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited due to the large number of customers across many industries that comprise our customer base. One third-party customer accounted for 13% and 24% of our total revenue for the nine months ended April 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Accounts receivable at April 30, 2004 include approximately $1.7 million due from this third-party customer.
(g) | Comprehensive Income (Loss) |
Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity from foreign currency translation adjustments.
(h) | Goodwill and Intangible Assets |
At April 30, 2004 and July 31, 2003, our intangible assets consisted of customer lists resulting from our acquisitions of Avasta, Inc. and certain assets and liabilities of Interliant and the as if poolings of CBTM and CBT. Our intangible assets were recorded at a gross carrying value of $17.0 million and $15.8 million, less accumulated amortization of $6.7 million and $3.7 million at April 30, 2004 and July 31, 2003, respectively. Amortization expense related to our intangible assets of $2.6 million and $1.8 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, was recorded as a component of our cost of revenue. Goodwill, resulting from our acquisition of CBTM, is recorded at its gross carrying value of $3.2 million. We perform our annual impairment analysis in our fiscal fourth quarter.
F-46
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(i) | Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets |
We assess the need to record impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present. On an ongoing basis, management reviews the value and period of amortization or depreciation of long-lived assets. During this review, the significant assumptions used in determining the original cost of long-lived assets are reevaluated. Although the assumptions may vary from transaction to transaction, they generally include revenue growth, operating results, cash flows, and other indicators of value. Management then determines whether there has been a permanent impairment of the value of long-lived assets by comparing future undiscounted cash flows to the assets carrying value. If the estimated future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, a loss is recorded based on the excess of the assets carrying value over fair value.
(j) | Income Taxes |
We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
(k) | Net Loss Per Share |
Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method for warrants and options, unless such amounts are anti-dilutive.
For the three and nine months ended April 30, 2004 and 2003, net loss per basic and diluted share is based on weighted average common shares and excludes any common stock equivalents, as they would be anti-dilutive due to the reported net loss. For the three and nine months ended April 30, 2004, 1,228,532 and 1,190,034, respectively, of dilutive shares related to warrants and employee stock options were excluded as they had an anti-dilutive effect due to the net loss. For the three and nine months ended April 30, 2003, 3,041 and 3,987, respectively, of dilutive shares related to employee stock options were excluded as they had an anti-dilutive effect due to the net loss. (See Note 11)
(l) | Stock-Based Compensation |
We account for our stock option plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and Related Interpretations. We recorded stock compensation expense of approximately $69,000 and $287,000 during the three and nine months ended April 30, 2004, respectively (see Note 11). The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and net loss per common share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 123,

(n) | New Accounting Pronouncements |
In January 2003, FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, was issued. FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities (VIE) to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. FIN 46 is effective for all new VIEs created or acquired after January 31, 2003. During December 2003, the FASB issued a new revision to FIN 46 (FIN 46R). Under the revised provisions, public entities are required to apply the guidance if the entity has interests in VIEs commonly referred to as special-purpose entities for the periods ending after December 15, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 and 46R did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
F-48
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 150, Accounting For Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity, which establishes standards for how an issuer of financial instruments classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances) if, at inception, the monetary value of the obligation is based solely or predominantly on a fixed monetary amount known at inception, variations in something other than the fair value of the issuers equity shares or variations inversely related to changes in the fair value of the issuers equity shares. This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. On November 7, 2003 the FASB deferred the classification and measurement provisions of SFAS No. 150 as they apply to certain mandatory redeemable non-controlling interests. This deferral is expected to remain in effect while these provisions are further evaluated by the FASB. We have not entered into or modified any financial instruments covered by this statement after May 31, 2003 and the application of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In December 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, Revenue Recognition, which supersedes SAB 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. SAB 104s primary purpose is to rescind accounting guidance contained in SAB 101 related to multiple element revenue arrangements, superseded as a result of the issuance of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 00-21, Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. The issuance of SAB 104 reflects the concepts contained in EITF 00-21; the other revenue recognition concepts contained in SAB 101 remain largely unchanged. The application of SAB 104 did not have a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
(o) | Reclassifications |
Certain fiscal year 2003 balances have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal year 2004 financial statement presentation.
(p) | Foreign Currency |
The functional currencies of our foreign wholly owned subsidiaries are the local currencies. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using period end exchange rates for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates during corresponding periods for revenue, cost of revenue and expenses. Translation gains and losses are deferred and accumulated as a separate component of stockholders equity (accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)).
3. | Liquidity |
As of April 30, 2004, our principal sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents and our financing agreement with Silicon Valley Bank. We had a working capital deficit of $16.6 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $7.6 million at April 30, 2004, as compared to a working capital deficit of $16.3 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $3.9 million at July 31, 2003.
The total net change in cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended April 30, 2004 was an increase of $3.8 million. The primary uses of cash during this nine-month period included $2.7 million of cash used for operating activities, $1.8 million for purchases of property and equipment and $10.4 million in repayments on notes payable, capital lease obligations and borrowings under our former accounts receivable financing line. Our primary sources of cash during this nine-month period were a $1.7 million decrease in restricted cash, $0.4 million in proceeds associated with the exercise of stock options under the employee stock option plans, $16.0 million in net proceeds from our modified financing agreement and
F-49
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
$0.6 million in proceeds from sale-leaseback and note payable transactions. Net cash used for operating activities of $2.7 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2004, resulted primarily from our $9.8 million net loss, partially offset by $14.3 million in non-cash charges, and $7.2 million used by net changes in operating assets and liabilities. At April 30, 2004, we had an accumulated deficit of $428.3 million, and have reported losses from operations since incorporation. At July 31, 2003, we had an accumulated deficit of $415.7 million.
Prior to May 2003, our primary sources of cash to fund our operations were sales of equity and convertible debt securities. Since May 2003, our primary source of cash to fund our operations and meet our contacted obligations and commitments has been our accounts receivable financing agreement with Silicon Valley Bank. On January 30, 2004, we amended this agreement to, among other things, allow for future borrowing to be based on monthly recurring revenue, increase the maximum borrowings level from $10.0 million to $12.8 million, and extend the term until January 29, 2006. On April 29, 2004, we amended this agreement, among other things, to increase the maximum borrowing level from $12.8 million to $20.4 million, and extend the term until April 29, 2006. Under the amended agreement, borrowings are based on monthly recurring revenue. We are required to prepare and deliver a written request for an advance of up to three times the value of total monthly recurring revenue, calculated to be monthly revenue (including revenue from New York State Department of Labor) less professional services revenue. The bank may then provide an advance of 85% of such value (or such other percentage as the bank may determine). The interest rate under the amended agreement is variable and is currently calculated at the banks published prime rate plus four percent. Following the completion of certain equity and debt financings, and provided we continue to meet certain ratios under the amended agreement, the interest rate shall be reduced to the banks prime rate plus one percent. In no event, however, will the banks prime rate be less than 4.25%. On April 30, 2004, we had an outstanding balance under the amended agreement of $16.0 million. On June 11, 2004, we borrowed approximately $3.9 million under the Silicon Valley Bank amended agreement to repay a Surebridge loan with Silicon Valley Bank that we assumed as part of the Surebridge acquisition (see Note 13). Our outstanding balance under this amended agreement as of June 11, 2004, was $15.2 million.
We anticipate incurring additional losses throughout our current fiscal year. We have taken several actions we believe will allow us to continue as a going concern through July 31, 2004, including the closing and integration of strategic acquisitions, the changes to our senior management and bringing costs more in line with projected revenue. On January 22, 2004, we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-2 (amended Form S-2/A filed on June 29, 2004) to register shares of our common stock to issue and sell in a public offering to raise additional funds. We believe that this proposed offering will allow us to raise the necessary funds to meet our anticipated needs for working capital and capital equipment for at least 12 months following the proposed offering. However, there can be no assurance that we will complete the proposed offering. In the event we are unable to complete the proposed offering, we will need to find alternative sources of financing, in order to remain a going concern. Potential sources include our financing agreement with Silicon Valley Bank and public or private sales of equity or debt securities. We may also consider sales of assets to raise additional cash. If we use a significant portion of the net proceeds from an offering to acquire a company, technology or product, we will need to raise additional debt or equity capital.
During fiscal 2003, we acquired four companies, downsized our workforce and restructured our business and balance sheet to improve operating cash flow. Our operating forecast incorporates material trends, such as our acquisitions, reductions in workforce, loss of related party revenue and closings of facilities. Our forecast also incorporates the future cash flow benefits expected from our continued efforts to increase efficiencies and reduce redundancies. Nonetheless, our forecast includes the need to raise additional funds through the proposed offering or alternate sources of financing. Our cash flow estimates are based upon attaining certain levels of sales, maintaining budgeted levels of operating expenses,
F-50
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
collections of accounts receivable and maintaining our current borrowing line with Silicon Valley Bank among other assumptions, including the improvement in the overall macroeconomic environment. However there can be no assurance that we will be able to meet such assumptions. Our sales estimate includes revenue from new and existing customers which may not be realized and we may be required to further reduce expenses if budgeted sales are not attained. We may be unsuccessful in reducing expenses in proportion to any shortfall in projected sales and our estimate of collections of accounts receivable may be hindered by our customers ability to pay. In addition, we are currently involved in various pending and potential legal proceedings. While we believe that the allegations against us in each of these matters are without merit, and that we have meritorious defense in each, we are not able to predict the final outcomes of any of these matters and the effect, if any, on our financial condition. If we are ultimately unsuccessful in any of these matters, we could be required to pay substantial amounts of cash and/or shares of our common stock to the other parties. The amount and timing of any such payments could adversely affect our financial condition.

During the three months ended April 30, 2004, we finalized our purchase accounting for the valuation of identifiable intangible assets of Avasta, Inc., which resulted in a reclassification from leasehold improvements to an intangible asset allocated to customer list in the amount of approximately $1.5 million. In addition, we reduced intangible assets during the third quarter of 2004 by $325,000, as the result of the Interliant net worth adjustment, which was resolved during the quarter (see Note 9(d)). Intangible asset amortization expense for the three-month period ended April 30, 2004 and 2003 aggregated $920,000 and $677,000, respectively, and for the nine-month period ended April 30, 2004 and 2003 was $2.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively.

6. | Acquisitions |
CBTM. We acquired ClearBlue Technologies Management, Inc. (CBTM) in December 2002 in a transaction accounted for as a combination of entities under common control (i.e., as if pooling). In June 2002, prior to our acquisition of CBTM, CBTM acquired substantially all of the assets used or useful in the Web hosting and Internet solutions business and assumed certain associated liabilities from the bankruptcy estate of AppliedTheory Corporation (AppliedTheory), which had filed for bankruptcy on April 17, 2002. On June 13, 2002, the acquisition of AppliedTheory by CBTM was consummated, effective June 6, 2002. The results of operations of AppliedTheory have been included in the financial statements of CBTM since June 6, 2002.
The aggregate purchase price paid by CBTM for the AppliedTheory assets, excluding assumed liabilities, was $16.0 million of which $3.9 million was paid in cash and $12.1 million was satisfied through the issuance of four notes payable to the AppliedTheory Estate: two unsecured promissory notes totaling $6.0 million, bearing interest at 8% per annum and due June 10, 2006, a secured promissory note totaling $700,000, bearing interest at 8% per annum and due December 10, 2002 and a $5.4 million secured promissory note, non-interest bearing, due December 10, 2002. The two notes, due December 10, 2002, were paid in December 2002.
Of the $6.2 million in identifiable intangible assets, $5.8 million was assigned to customer lists, which are being amortized over eight years, except for the New York State Department of Labor customer contract, which is being amortized over five years, and represented the remaining life on the contract. The remaining $440,000 of acquired intangible assets was allocated to proprietary software, which is being amortized over five years.
Avasta, Inc. On February 5, 2003, we acquired Avasta, a provider of remote hosting and managed service operations, in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $370,000. The acquisition was made to enhance our ability to be a full service provider of applications management services and technology to our customers. The purchase price consisted of 231,039 shares of common stock at a per share value of $1.60 (representing a five-day average of the market value of our common stock at the time of the acquisition). The purchase price of $442,000 consists of the issuance of common stock for approximately $370,000 and approximately $72,000 in acquisition costs. This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The Agreement and Plan of Merger provided that up to an additional 1,004,518 shares of common stock could be issued in the event certain revenue targets were achieved through June 2003. As a result of the earnout calculation in September 2003, we adjusted our purchase accounting to reflect the issuance of 179,353 shares of our common stock at a per share value of $4.14 (representing the market value of our common stock the day preceding the issuance of the additional
F-52
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
shares for the attainment of certain revenue targets). During the third quarter of 2004, we finalized our purchase accounting for this acquisition, which resulted in the reclassification from leasehold improvements to an intangible asset allocated to customer lists in the amount of approximately $1.5 million, which is being amortized over the remaining four years.
Conxion Corporation. On April 2, 2003, we completed the acquisition of Conxion, a provider of software distribution services and network/server security expertise for its customers, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 26, 2003 (Conxion Agreement), by and between us, Union Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and our wholly owned subsidiary, and Conxion. Pursuant to the Conxion Agreement, the shareholders of Conxion received an aggregate of $1,925,000 in cash. The acquisition was made to enhance our ability to be a full service provider of applications management services and technology to our customers. The source of funds used for the acquisition of Conxion was our cash on hand. The acquisition price was based on the parties determination of the fair value of Conxion and the terms of the Conxion Agreement were derived from arms-length negotiation among the parties. The purchase price of $2,031,000 consisted of the $1,925,000 paid to the Conxion shareholders and approximately $106,000 in acquisition costs. The negative goodwill of approximately $2.2 million reduced the recorded basis of property and equipment. This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
Interliant. On May 16, 2003, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets relating to the managed infrastructure solutions business, encompassing messaging and collaboration, managed hosting, bundled-in managed security, and integrated and related professional services in the United States and in Europe of Interliant, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and several of its subsidiaries (Debtors) in the bankruptcy proceedings of the Debtors under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code pending in the Southern District of New York (White Plains), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 15, 2003 (the Agreement), by and between our subsidiary, Intrepid Acquisition Corp. and the Debtors, approved by order of the Bankruptcy Court on May 15, 2003. Pursuant to the Agreement, the aggregate purchase price for the Interliant assets, excluding certain assumed liabilities, was approximately $7,204,000 after adjustments, based upon the Debtors adjusted net worth, comprised of approximately $5,830,000 in cash, $624,000 in the form of a credit of future distributions to be paid on the Interliant Notes, $550,000 in principal amount of a non-interest bearing, 180-day promissory note, secured by the Interliant Notes and the accounts receivable acquired as part of the Interliant Assets and approximately $200,000 in acquisition-related costs. On May 16, 2003, our subsidiary closed on the purchase of all of the Interliant Assets, other than the Debtors accounts receivable. On June 6, 2003, our subsidiary closed on the purchase of the accounts receivable. The source of funds used for the initial closing was our cash on hand combined with the funds provided from and through financing of our accounts receivable with Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), as discussed below, cash acquired with the Interliant assets, and cash receipts from the purchased accounts receivable. The acquisition price was determined through arms-length negotiations and competitive bidding for the Interliant Assets at an auction conducted under the auspices of the Bankruptcy Court. On March 8, 2004, the court approved the $325,000 net worth adjustment in favor of Intrepid and we adjusted our purchase accounting to reflect this resolution. In conjunction with this resolution, Intrepids $550,000 promissory note in favor of Interliant was satisfied out of the net worth adjustment and the remaining balance of $225,000 was paid from funds Intrepid had placed in escrow (see Note 9).
ClearBlue Technologies. On August 8, 2003, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and the assumption of certain liabilities of CBT pursuant to a Stock and Asset Acquisition Agreement (the CBT Agreement). Pursuant to the CBT Agreement, we acquired all outstanding shares of six (6) wholly owned subsidiaries of CBT with data centers located in Chicago, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, Oakbrook and Vienna.
F-53
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
In addition, we assumed the revenue and expense, as of the date of the CBT Agreement, of four (4) additional wholly owned subsidiaries of CBT with data centers located in Dallas, New York, San Francisco and Santa Clara. Ownership of these subsidiaries was to be automatically transferred, under certain conditions, to us for no additional consideration in February 2004. On February 6, 2004, we entered into an amendment (as discussed in Note 2) to extend the date by which we are able to cause the transfer of these CBT wholly owned subsidiaries to us from February 8, 2004 to on or prior to August 8, 2005, under certain conditions and for no additional consideration. In consideration for such amendment, we agreed to operate and manage these entities in a manner consistent with the CBT Agreement.
In exchange for these subsidiaries and certain assets and contracts relating to them, we: (i) issued 1.1 million shares of our common stock, to CBT; (ii) released CBT from certain inter-company advances in an amount up to $300,000; (iii) assumed all of CBTs obligations under certain assets and contracts relating to these subsidiaries; and (iv) released CBT from certain payment obligations owed to us pursuant to the Outsourcing Agreement in an amount not to exceed $263,000.
As Atlantic Investors, LLC had a controlling interest in both NaviSite and CBT at the time of the CBT Agreement, the transaction was accounted for as a combination of entities under common control (i.e., as if pooling) whereby the assets and liabilities of CBT and NaviSite were combined at their historical amounts. Accordingly, the Companys consolidated financial statements have been restated for all periods prior to the business combination to include CBTs financial results beginning on September 11, 2002, the date on which CBT acquired the controlling interest in the Company. CBTs balance sheet has been included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets of NaviSite at April 30, 2004 and July 31, 2003, and CBTs results of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended April 30, 2004 have been included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows of NaviSite for the nine-month period ended April 30, 2004, and CBTs results of operations and cash flows for the eight-month period ended April 30, 2003 have been included in our Consolidated Statement of Operations and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the nine-month period ended April 30, 2003.
On March 12, 2004, we had initially rejected the Santa Clara data center subsidiary, pursuant to our right under the acquisition agreement; however, on April 12, 2004, prior to the expiration of the thirty-day notification period, we revoked this rejection. On April 14, 2004, pursuant to the Amendment, NaviSite exercised its right to acquire from CBT all of the outstanding shares of the Deferred Entities, for no additional consideration. We will continue to consolidate, as part of our consolidated financial statements, the results of each of these four subsidiaries.
The following unaudited pro forma results for the nine-month period ended April 30, 2003 give effect to our acquisitions of CBTM, Avasta, Conxion and the assets of Interliant and CBT as if they had taken place at the beginning of fiscal year 2003. The pro forma information does not necessarily reflect the results of operations that would have occurred had the acquisitions taken place at the beginning of the fiscal 2003 period and is not necessarily indicative of results that may be obtained in the future (in thousands, except per share data):

In a privately negotiated transaction with Fir Tree Recovery Master Fund, LP and Fir Tree Value Partners, LDC pursuant to an Assignment Agreement dated October 11, 2002 and in a series of open market transactions from certain other third-party holders, we acquired an aggregate principal amount of approximately $36.3 million face value, 10% convertible senior notes (Interliant Notes) due in 2006 of Interliant, Inc. (Interliant) for a total consideration of approximately $2 million. Interliant is a provider of managed services, which filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the Southern District of New York on August 5, 2002, and we made this investment with the intention of participating in the reorganization/sale of Interliant.
On May 16, 2003, the Southern District of New York (White Plains) confirmed us as the successful bidder for the purchase of the Interliant assets. The final value we will receive for the Interliant Notes has not been determined, however, we estimate the value to approximate the $1.4 million carrying value, included in other assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Interliant Estate filed a plan of liquidation with the bankruptcy court, which has been approved by the creditors.

(a) | Silicon Valley Bank Financing Arrangements |
On May 27, 2003, we entered into an Accounts Receivable Financing Agreement (Financing Agreement), by and among Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), us and our wholly owned subsidiaries, ClearBlue Technologies Management, Inc., Avasta, Inc., Conxion Corporation and Intrepid Acquisition Corp., whereby we can finance up to a maximum of $12.5 million of our eligible accounts receivables with an 80% advance rate. Under the Financing Agreement, we are required to repay advances upon the earlier of our receipt of payment on the financed accounts receivables from our customers, or the financed accounts receivable being aged greater than ninety days from date of service. The Financing Agreement has a one-year term and bears an annual interest rate of prime rate plus 4.0%, with a minimum $10,000 monthly finance charge. The Financing Agreement also contains certain affirmative and negative covenants and is secured by substantially all of our assets, tangible and intangible. As part of the Financing Agreement, on May 27, 2003 we issued to SVB a warrant to purchase up to 165,000 shares of NaviSite common stock with an exercise price of $2.50 per share, the closing price of our stock on the last business day before the
F-55
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
issuance of the warrant. We fair valued the warrants at $370,000 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The value of the warrants is being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Financing Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the warrant, on May 19, 2004, SVB fully exercised its warrant, which resulted in a net issuance of 73,738 shares.
On January 30, 2004, we entered into a Loan Modification Agreement with SVB. The agreement amended our accounts receivable financing agreement with SVB, among other things, to: (i) base future borrowings on monthly recurring revenue; (ii) increase the maximum borrowing level from $10.0 million to $12.8 million; and (iii) extend the term until January 29, 2006. In connection with this amended agreement, on January 30, 2004, we issued a warrant to SVB for the purchase of 50,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.75 per share. We fair valued the warrant at $213,426 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The value of the warrant is being amortized into interest expense over the term of the modified Financing Agreement. The warrant is exercisable at any time on or after September 1, 2004. Pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of January 30, 2004, we also granted certain registration rights to SVB with respect to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrant.
On April 29, 2004, we entered into a Second Loan Modification Agreement with SVB. The agreement amended our account receivable financing agreement, with SVB to, among other things: (i) increase our maximum borrowing level from $12.8 million to $20.4 million; and (ii) extend the term until April 29, 2006. On April 30, 2004, we had an outstanding balance under the amended agreement of $16.0 million and repaid $7.0 million on May 3, 2004.
Under the amended agreement, borrowings are based on monthly recurring revenue. We are required to prepare and deliver a written request for an advance of up to three times the value of total recurring monthly revenue, calculated to be monthly revenue (including revenue from The New York State Department of Labor) less professional services revenue. SVB may then provide an advance of 85% of such value (or such other percentage as the bank may determine). The interest rate under the amended agreement is variable and is currently calculated at the banks published prime rate plus 4.0%. Following the completion of certain equity or debt financings, and provided we continue to meet certain ratios under the amended agreement, the interest rate shall be reduced to the banks prime rate plus 1.0%. In no event, however, will the banks prime rate be less than 4.25%.
(b) | Note Payable to Atlantic Investors, LLC (Atlantic) |
On January 29, 2003, we entered into a $10 million Loan and Security Agreement (Atlantic Loan) with Atlantic, a related party. The Atlantic Loan bears an interest rate of 8% per annum. Interest is payable upon demand or, at Atlantics option, interest may be added to the outstanding balance due to Atlantic by NaviSite. Atlantic may make demand for payment of amounts in excess of the minimum Atlantic Loan amount of $2.0 million (Minimum Loan Amount), with 60 days notice. Atlantic can demand payment of the Minimum Loan Amount with 90 days notice. Under the Atlantic Loan agreement, we can require Atlantic to loan us (1) up to $2.0 million to repay an amount due from CBTM to Unicorn, a related party to NaviSite and Atlantic; (2) $1.0 million for costs associated with our acquisition of Avasta; and (3) up to $500,000 for the post-acquisition working capital needs of Avasta. Atlantic, at its sole and absolute discretion, may advance other amounts to us such that the aggregate amount borrowed by NaviSite does not exceed the maximum loan amount, defined as the lesser of $10.0 million or 65% of our consolidated accounts receivables. On May 30, 2003, we repaid $2.0 million of the approximate $3.0 million outstanding under the Atlantic Loan and on June 11, 2003, we borrowed $2.0 million under the Atlantic Loan. At April 30, 2004, we had $3.0 million outstanding under the Atlantic Loan. This amount is shown as Current Note Payable to Related Party on our Consolidated
F-56
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Balance Sheet. The Atlantic Loan is secured by all of our receivables and is subordinated to the borrowings from Silicon Valley Bank.
On January 16, 2004, the Atlantic Loan was amended to extend any and all Credit Advances under the Atlantic Loan made prior to or following, January 16, 2004, to be due on or before the earlier of (i) August 1, 2004 or (ii) five (5) business days following the closing of a financing transaction or disposition pursuant to which the Borrower receives gross proceeds of $13 million.
(c) | Note Payable to AppliedTheory Estate |
As part of CBTMs acquisition of certain AppliedTheory assets, CBTM entered into two unsecured promissory notes totaling $6.0 million (Estate Liability) due to the AppliedTheory Estate on June 10, 2006. The Estate Liability bears interest at 8% per annum, which is due and payable annually. At April 30, 2004, we had approximately $440,000 in accrued interest related to this note, which is reflected within accrued expenses on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
(d) | Notes Payable to the Interliant Estate |
As part of our acquisition of certain Interliant Assets, we entered into a promissory note with the Interliant Estate (Interliant Promissory Note) in the amount of $550,000, payable without interest on the earlier of (i) the 180th day following the Second Closing Date or (ii) the date Interliant Estate makes distributions to their general unsecured creditors. The Interliant Promissory Note was secured by the Interliant Notes and the accounts receivable acquired as part of the Interliant Assets. Pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement between Intrepid and Interliant, each party placed $300,000 in escrow as security for adjustments in the purchase price based upon changes in Interliants net worth at the time of the closing. On March 8, 2004, the court approved the $325,000 net worth adjustment in favor of Intrepid and we adjusted our purchase accounting to reflect this resolution by reducing intangible assets. In conjunction with this resolution, Intrepids $550,000 promissory note in favor of Interliant was satisfied out of the net worth adjustment and the remaining balance of $225,000 was paid from funds Intrepid had placed in escrow and Interliants security interest securing Intrepids obligations under the Interliant Promissory Note was released.
(e) | Notes Payable to Landlord |
As part of an amendment to our 400 Minuteman Road lease, $2.2 million of our future payments to the landlord of our 400 Minuteman Road facility were transferred into a note payable (Landlord Note). The Landlord Note bears interest at an annual rate of 11% and calls for 36 equal monthly payments of principal and interest, with the final payment due on November 1, 2006. The $2.2 million represents leasehold improvements made by the landlord, on our behalf, to the 400 Minuteman location in order to facilitate the leasing of a portion of the facility (First Lease Amendment), as well as common area maintenance and property taxes associated with the space.
In addition, during the three months ended January 31, 2004, we paid $120,000 and we entered into a separate $150,000 note (Second Landlord Note) with the landlord for additional leasehold improvements to facilitate a subleasing transaction involving a specific section of the 400 Minuteman location. The Second Landlord Note bears interest at an annual rate of 11% and calls for 36 equal monthly payments of principal and interest, with the final payment due on March 1, 2007.

10. | Commitments and Contingencies |
(a) | Leases |
Abandoned Leased Facilities |
On January 31, 2003, we abandoned our administrative space on the second floor of our 400 Minuteman Road, Andover, MA leased location. We continue to maintain and operate our Data Center on the first floor of the building. While we remain obligated under the terms of the lease for the rent and other costs associated with the second floor of the building, we ceased to use the space on January 31, 2003. Therefore, in accordance with SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, issued in July 2002, we recorded a charge to our earnings in fiscal year 2003 of approximately $5.4 million to recognize the costs of exiting the space. The liability is equal to the total amount of rent and other direct costs for the period of time the second floor of the building was expected to remain unoccupied plus the present value of the amount by which the rent paid by us to the landlord exceeds any rent paid to us by a tenant under a sublease over the remainder of the lease term, which is May 2011. During the second quarter of fiscal 2004, $2.2 million of our future payments to the landlord of our 400 Minuteman Road facility were transferred into a note payable (see Note 9(e)).
Near the end of our fiscal year 2002, we abandoned our sales office space in La Jolla, CA. At that time we were able to sublet the space to a third party. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2003, the sublease tenant stopped making payments under the sublease and has abandoned the space. The facility is currently empty and we remain obligated under the terms of the lease for the rent and other costs associated with the building. We have no foreseeable plans to occupy the space; therefore, under SFAS No. 146, we recorded a charge to our earnings of approximately $1.4 million during fiscal year 2003 to recognize the costs of exiting the building.
In conjunction with the Conxion acquisition in April 2003, we impaired data center and office leases in Chicago, IL, Herndon, VA, and Amsterdam, as these leases provided no economic benefit to the combined company.
In October 2003, we abandoned administrative office space at 55 Francisco St., San Francisco, CA and data center space and office space located at Westwood Center, Vienna, VA. While we remain obligated under the terms of these leases for the rent and other costs associated with these leases, we made the decision to cease using these spaces on October 31, 2003 and have no foreseeable plans to occupy them in the future. Therefore, in accordance with SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, issued in July 2002, we recorded a charge to our current earnings in the first quarter of fiscal year 2004 of approximately $1.1 million to recognize the costs of exiting the space. The amount is included in the caption Impairment, restructuring and other in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. The liability is equal to the total amount of rent and other direct costs for the period of time space is expected to remain unoccupied plus the present value of the amount by which the rent paid by us to the landlord exceeds any rent paid to us by a tenant under a sublease over the remainder of the lease terms, which expire in January 2006 for San Francisco, CA and July 2005 for Vienna, VA, respectively.
The $206,000 net impairment charge recorded during the three months ended April 30, 2004 resulted from the write-off of $300,000 in property and equipment, net of $94,000 in recovery of impairment charges, triggered by the termination and settlement of the abandoned lease at 55 Francisco, San Francisco, CA. Additional net adjustments of $69,000 were recorded during the three months ended April 30, 2004, in conjunction with the final purchase accounting for Conxion.

On June 10, 2004, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Surebridge. Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, we issued two promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $39.3 million to Surebridge. The Notes accrue interest on the unpaid balance at an annual rate of 10%, however no interest shall accrue on any principal paid within nine months of the closing. The Notes shall be paid in full no later than the second anniversary of the closing. In the event that we realize net proceeds in excess of $1 million from certain equity or debt financings or sales of assets, we are obligated to use a significant portion of the proceeds to make payments on the Notes. The outstanding principal and accrued interest of the Notes shall be convertible into shares of NaviSite common stock (the Conversion Shares) at the election of the holder (i) at any time following the first anniversary of the closing if the aggregate principal outstanding under the Notes at such time is greater than or equal to $20 million, (ii) at any time following the 18-month anniversary of the closing if the aggregate principal outstanding under the Notes at such time is greater than or equal to $10 million, (iii) at any time following the second anniversary of the closing, and (iv) at any time following an event of default thereunder. The conversion price of each of the Notes is $4.642, which is the average closing price of NaviSites common stock for the ten-day period ending one day prior to closing.

(b) | Legal Matters |
IPO Securities Litigation |
On or about June 13, 2001, Stuart Werman and Lynn McFarlane filed a lawsuit against us, BancBoston Robertson Stephens, an underwriter of our initial public offering in October 1999, Joel B. Rosen, our then chief executive officer, and Kenneth W. Hale, our then chief financial officer. The suit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The suit generally alleges that the defendants violated federal securities laws by not disclosing certain actions allegedly taken by Robertson Stephens in connection with our initial public offering. The suit alleges specifically that Robertson Stephens, in exchange for the allocation to its customers of shares of our common stock sold in our initial public offering, solicited and received from its customers agreements to purchase additional shares of our common stock in the aftermarket at pre-determined prices. The suit seeks unspecified monetary damages and certification of a plaintiff class consisting of all persons who acquired shares of our common stock between October 22, 1999 and December 6, 2000. Three other substantially similar lawsuits were filed between June 15, 2001 and July 10, 2001 by Moses Mayer (filed June 15, 2001), Barry Feldman (filed June 19, 2001), and Binh Nguyen (filed July 10, 2001). Robert E. Eisenberg, our president at the time of the initial public offering in 1999, also was named as a defendant in the Nguyen lawsuit.
On or about June 21, 2001, David Federico filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York a lawsuit against us, Mr. Rosen, Mr. Hale, Robertson Stephens and other underwriter defendants including J.P. Morgan Chase, First Albany Companies, Inc., Bank of America Securities, LLC, Bear Stearns & Co., Inc., B.T. Alex. Brown, Inc., Chase Securities, Inc., CIBC World Markets, Credit Suisse First Boston Corp., Dain Rauscher, Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc., The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., J.P. Morgan & Co., J.P. Morgan Securities, Lehman Brothers, Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Inc., Morgan Stanley Dean Witter & Co., Robert Fleming, Inc. and Salomon Smith Barney, Inc. The suit generally alleges that the defendants violated the anti-trust laws and the federal securities laws by conspiring and agreeing to raise and increase the compensation received by the underwriter defendants by requiring those who received allocation of initial public offering stock to agree to purchase shares of manipulated securities in the after-market of the initial public offering at escalating price levels designed to inflate the price of the manipulated stock, thus artificially creating an appearance of demand and high prices for that stock, and initial public offering stock in general, leading to further stock offerings. The suit also alleges that the defendants arranged for the underwriter defendants to receive undisclosed and excessive brokerage commissions and that, as a consequence, the underwriter defendants successfully increased investor interest in the manipulated initial public offering of securities and increased the underwriter defendants individual and collective underwritings, compensation, and revenue. The suit further alleges that the defendants violated the federal securities laws by issuing and selling securities pursuant to the initial public offering without disclosing to investors that the underwriter defendants in the offering, including the lead underwriters, had solicited and received excessive and undisclosed commissions from certain investors. The suit seeks unspecified monetary damages and certification of a plaintiff class consisting of all persons who acquired shares of our common stock between October 22, 1999 and June 12, 2001.
Those five cases, along with lawsuits naming more than 300 other issuers and over 50 investment banks, which have been sued in substantially similar lawsuits, have been assigned to the Honorable Shira A. Scheindlin (the Court) for all pretrial purposes (the IPO Securities Litigation). On September 6, 2001, the Court entered an order consolidating the five individual cases involving us and designating Werman v. NaviSite, Inc., et al., Civil Action No. 01-CV-5374 as the lead case. A consolidated, amended complaint was filed thereafter on April 19, 2002 (the Class Action Litigation) on behalf of plaintiffs Arvid Brandstrom and Tony Tse against underwriter defendants Robertson Stephens (as

successor-in-interest to BancBoston), BancBoston, J.P. Morgan (as successor-in-interest to Hambrecht & Quist), Hambrecht & Quist and First Albany and against us and Messrs. Rosen, Hale and Eisenberg (collectively, the NaviSite Defendants). Plaintiffs uniformly allege that all defendants, including the NaviSite Defendants, violated the federal securities laws (i.e., Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act, Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5) by issuing and selling our common stock pursuant to the October 22, 1999, initial public offering, without disclosing to investors that some of the underwriters of the offering, including the lead underwriters, had solicited and received extensive and undisclosed agreements from certain investors to purchase aftermarket shares at pre-arranged, escalating prices and also to receive additional commissions and/or other compensation from those investors. At this time, plaintiffs have not specified the amount of damages they are seeking in the Class Action Litigation.
Between July and September 2002, the parties to the IPO Securities Litigation briefed motions to dismiss filed by the underwriter defendants and the issuer defendants, including NaviSite. On November 1, 2002, the Court held oral argument on the motions to dismiss. The plaintiffs have since agreed to dismiss the claims against Messrs. Rosen, Hale and Eisenberg without prejudice, in return for their agreement to toll any statute of limitations applicable to those claims. By stipulation entered by the Court on November 18, 2002, Messrs. Rosen, Hale and Eisenberg were dismissed without prejudice from the Class Action Litigation. On February 19, 2003, an opinion and order was issued on defendants motion to dismiss the IPO Securities Litigation, essentially denying the motions to dismiss of all 55 underwriter defendants and of 185 of the 301 issuer defendants, including NaviSite.
On June 30, 2003, our Board of Directors considered and authorized us to negotiate a settlement of the pending Class Action Litigation substantially consistent with a memorandum of understanding negotiated among class plaintiffs, the issuer defendants and the insurers for such issuer defendants. On June 14, 2004, a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement with Defendant Issuers and Individuals was submitted to the Court. The Court ordered plaintiffs to file a motion for preliminary approval on or before June 25, 2004, and the motion is expected to be fully briefed by July 21, 2004. If completed and then given final approval by the Court, the settlement is expected to be covered by our existing insurance policies and is not expected to have a material effect on our business or financial results.
We believe that the allegations against us are without merit and, if the settlement is not finalized, we intend to vigorously defend against the plaintiffs claims. Due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, we are not able to predict the possible outcome of the suits and their ultimate effect, if any, on our financial condition.
Goldman Sachs Payment Demand |
In March 2001, we engaged Goldman Sachs & Co. to serve as our financial advisor in connection with the possible sale of all or a portion of NaviSite. On September 17, 2002, Goldman made a written demand for payment of a $3.0 million success fee in connection with the September 2002 acquisition by CBT of the stock and convertible debt of NaviSite from CMGI and Hewlett-Packard Financial Services Company. We have rejected Goldmans demands, as we believe they are without merit. No legal actions have been filed concerning the Goldman claim. As this matter is in the initial stage, we are not able to predict the possible outcome of this matter and the effect, if any, on our financial condition.
Joseph Cloonan |
On or about September 27, 2002, we received a demand for a wage payment of $850,000 from our former Procurement Director, Joseph Cloonan. We rejected the demand, alleging that Mr. Cloonans claim is based, among other things, on a potentially fraudulent contract. Mr. Cloonan also claimed $40,300 for allegedly unpaid accrued vacation and bonuses and that he may be statutorily entitled to treble damages and legal fees. On October 11, 2002, NaviSite filed a civil complaint with the Massachusetts Superior
F-61
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Court, Essex County, seeking a declaratory judgment and asserting claims against Mr. Cloonan for civil fraud, misrepresentation, unjust enrichment and breach of duty of loyalty. Mr. Cloonan asserted counter claims against NaviSite seeking the payments set forth in his September 2002 demand. We believe Mr. Cloonans allegations are without merit and intend to vigorously defend against them. As the litigation is in the discovery stage, we are not able to predict the possible outcome of this matter and the effect, if any, on our financial condition.
Lighthouse International |
On October 28, 2002, CBTM, one of our subsidiaries, filed a complaint in United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Lighthouse International, alleging six causes of action for copyright infringement, breach of contract, account stated, unjust enrichment, unfair competition, and misappropriation and/or conversion. The total claimed damages are in the amount of $1.9 million. On or about January 16, 2003, Lighthouse filed and served its answer and counterclaimed against CBTM claiming $3.1 million in damages and $5.0 million in punitive relief.
On June 17, 2003, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York heard oral argument on Lighthouses Motion for an Order Compelling the Debtor (AppliedTheory) to Assume or Reject an Agreement, filed in response to CBTMs complaint, and the objections to Lighthouses motion filed by CBTM and AppliedTheory. Lighthouse made this motion on the basis that it never received notice of CBTM assuming the AppliedTheory contract for the LighthouseLink Web site. The Bankruptcy Court declined to grant Lighthouses motion, and instead ordered that an evidentiary hearing be conducted to determine whether Lighthouse received appropriate notice of the proposed assignment of the contract by AppliedTheory to CBTM. The Bankruptcy Court ordered that the parties first conduct discovery, and upon completion of discovery, the Bankruptcy Court would schedule an evidentiary hearing on the issues of due process and notice.
As to the U.S. District Court matter, the exchange of written discovery has been completed. Further, the majority of depositions of witnesses have been completed. Factual discovery has been completed, with expert discovery to be exchanged by the end of August 2004. On June 15, 2004, District Court Judge Pauley determined that both parties could proceed with their respective summary judgment motions. All motion papers shall be finally submitted by September 20, 2004, with oral argument scheduled for October 15, 2004. In the interim, expert discovery shall be completed by the parties. A final pre-trial conference is scheduled for October 15, 2004. Because of the pending motion requests, the future expert discovery to be completed, and the uncertain outcome of the evidentiary hearing before the Bankruptcy Court, we are not able to predict the possible outcome of this matter, if any, on our financial condition.
Avasta Earnout |
On October 14, 2003, we received a letter purportedly on behalf of the former stockholders of Avasta relating to the issuance of additional shares of common stock pursuant to the earnout calculations pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization dated as of January 29, 2003 among Avasta Corp., Avasta, Inc. and NaviSite. On December 11, 2003, a demand for arbitration before JAMS (formerly known as Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services) was filed claiming among other things breach of contract, tortious conduct, fraud and other wrongful conduct. Damages sought include in excess of 782,790 shares of NaviSite common stock. We believe the allegations are without merit and intend to vigorously defend against them. As the arbitration is in the initial discovery stage, we are not able to predict the possible outcome of this matter and the effect, if any, on our financial condition.

La Jolla Landlord |
On November 24, 2003, U.S. Property Fund GmbH & Co, the landlord for space leased by NaviSite in La Jolla, California, filed a breach of lease action against NaviSite. The landlord claims damages in excess of $2.0 million. On February 23, 2004, the landlord agreed to stay the litigation in exchange for NaviSite agreeing to make future rent payments in a timely manner and replenishing the letter of credit within 12 months.
