BUSINESS GENERAL Forgent Networks, Inc. a Delaware corporation d/b/a Asure Software (“Forgent” or the “Company”), is a provider of web-based workforce management solutions and a licensor of intellectual property. The Company was incorporated in 1985 and has principal executive offices located at 108 Wild Basin Road, Austin, Texas 78746. The Company telephone number is (512) 437-2700 and the Company website is www.asuresoftware.com. The Company does not intend for information contained on its website to be part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Report”). Forgent makes available free of charge, on or through its website, its annual report on Form 10-K, its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, its current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company electronically files such material or furnishes it to the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company has two main business segments. First, as a software and services provider, the Company offers web-based workforce management solutions that enable organizations to manage their office environment as well as their human resource and payroll processes effectively and efficiently. Second, as a licensor of intellectual property, Forgent primarily enters into one-time intellectual property license agreements with companies for the Company’s patented technologies. In recent years, Forgent’s success was largely dependent on its ability to license and commercialize its patent portfolio and other intellectual property. However, with the conclusion of certain patent litigations in fiscal year 2007, the Company has substantially exhausted its existing patent licensing revenue sources. In September 2007, the Company announced the re-branding of its corporate name to “Asure Software.” In October 2007, Forgent acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of iSarla Inc., a Delaware corporation and application service provider that offers on-demand software solutions under the trade name “iEmployee.” These two events were designed to refocus the Company’s efforts toward the software and services business and away from the intellectual property licensing business. As a result of the iEmployee acquisition, the Company currently offers two main product lines in its software and services business: NetSimplicity and iEmployee. Forgent’s NetSimplicity product line, which is sold through a web and telesales business model, includes its flagship product, Meeting Room Manager (“MRM”), which automates the entire facility scheduling process including reserving rooms, requesting equipment, ordering food, sending invitations and reporting on the meeting environment. The Company also develops and markets NetSimplicity’s Visual Asset Manager (“VAM”) product, a web based management tool that enables companies to efficiently inventory, track and manage their fixed, mobile and IT assets across the entire organization. The iEmployee product line is sold through direct sales and resellers. iEmployee’s web-based solutions, which include Time & Attendance, Timesheets, Human Resource Benefits, Expenses and others, help simplify the HR process and improve employee productivity by managing and communicating human resources, employee benefits and payroll information. With the acquisition of iEmployee and the continued growth of its NetSimplicity product line, management believes the Company will be able to grow its software and services segment, which is the primary generator of revenues and cash flows on a going forward basis. Additional business segment information is contained elsewhere in this Report, including under Item 7 of Part II (Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations) and in the “Segment Information” footnote in the accompanying financial statements. Forgent also continues to explore other strategic growth opportunities as well as options for increasing return on shareholder value. However, uncertainties and challenges remain and there can be no assurances that Forgent’s current strategy will be successful. On February 4, 2008, Forgent received a Nasdaq deficiency letter indicating that, for 30 consecutive business days, the bid price per share of the Company’s common stock closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement. Therefore, the Company’s common stock was subject to potential delisting from the Nasdaq Global Market Exchange pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(5). The Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until August 4, 2008, to regain compliance by maintaining a share bid price in excess of $1.00 for ten consecutive business days. Forgent worked to regain compliance through improving its operating results, but it was unable to 3 Table of Contents regain compliance with the minimum bid requirement. Consequently, Forgent applied for a transfer listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq approved the application and transferred the Company’s securities to the Nasdaq Capital Market, effective September 19, 2008. As a result of this transfer, Forgent was provided an additional 180 calendar days, beginning from the original August 4, 2008 deadline, or until February 2, 2009, to regain compliance with the minimum $1.00 share bid price requirement. Due to current unprecedented market conditions, on October 16, 2008, Nasdaq suspended the enforcement of its rules requiring a minimum $1.00 share bid price for all Nasdaq-listed companies. The rules will be reinstated on January 19, 2009. Consequently, on October 22, 2008, Forgent received a Nasdaq letter extending the revised compliance deadline from February 2, 2009 to May 5, 2009. If the Company cannot achieve compliance with the minimum share price requirement by May 5, 2009, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company’s securities will be de-listed from the Capital Market Exchange. SOFTWARE AND SERVICES BUSINESS Products and Services As Asure Software, Forgent offers web-based workforce management solutions that enable organizations to manage their office environment as well as their human resource and payroll processes effectively and efficiently.

  • The-Smartphone-Royalty-Stack-Armstrong-Mueller-Syrett.Pdf
    The Smartphone Royalty Stack: Surveying Royalty Demands for the Components Within Modern Smartphones Ann Armstrong, Joseph J. Mueller, and Timothy D. Syrett1 [WORKING PAPER2] Competition in the smartphone industry is fierce, and for smartphone suppliers, achieving profitability is highly challenging. Indeed, few suppliers are meeting the basic goal of selling devices for more than the costs incurred in supplying them.3 This article examines one category of such costs: the cumulative royalty demands for the patents claimed to cover technologies in a smartphone. The authors have years of experience studying such costs, as an in-house attorney at a supplier of components for mobile devices, and as litigators who have worked on many patent cases involving smartphones. For this article, we report only publicly-available information. To the extent that we have knowledge of confidential licensing information through our in-house or litigation work, we do not report it in this article, in any way. But, our collective experience has allowed us to effectively canvass publicly-available information to sketch the royalty landscape for smartphones. Using exclusively this public information, the article presents a “bottom-up” analysis of smartphone royalties by examining the potential royalty burden on the major technologies and components in smartphones. We are unaware of any similar study. Some studies have focused on royalties on discrete technologies (e.g., cellular communication functionality), rather than the 4 broad range of components across the entire device. Others have quantified relevant intellectual 1 Ann Armstrong is Vice President and Associate General Counsel at Intel Corp. The views expressed by Ms.
