PROSPECTUS SUMMARY OUR COMPANY USA Technologies, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (the "Company"), was founded in January 1992. The Company is a developer and supplier of cashless payment and control network systems and provider of related services. The Company's patented technologies include networked cashless transaction solutions and point of purchases devices. In May 2002, the Company completed the acquisition of Stitch Networks Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Stitch"), and operates Stitch as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Stitch also is a developer and supplier of cashless payment and control network technologies. Through the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Bayview Technology Group, LLC (Bayview) in July 2003, the Company now designs and manufactures patented energy conservation devices for equipment such as laser printers, monitors, office peripherals, refrigerated vending machines and glass front merchandisers (referred to as slide or visi coolers). OUR BUSINESS The Company's point of purchase device, called e-Port or TransAct, facilitates the monitor and control, the cashless payment of product and/or services and the collection of sales and inventory data for the host equipment it is connected to or embedded in. Examples of host equipment include copiers, faxes, personal computers, printers, vending machines and kiosks. Our customers connect these devices to a network, developed and operated by the Company, which further facilitates the control and monitoring, the settlement of cashless payments and the reporting of sales and inventory data collected at the point of purchase. The Company's systems support multiple cashless payments methods, such as payments via credit/debit cards, smart cards, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Personal Identification Numbers (PINs), and cellular telephones. Revenue from the sale of equipment is recognized on the terms of freight-on-board shipping point, or upon installation and acceptance of the equipment if installation services are purchased for the related equipment. Transaction processing revenue is recognized upon the usage of the Company's cashless payment and control services and network. Service fees for access to the Company's equipment and network are recognized on a monthly basis. Product revenues are recognized from the sale of products from the Company's vending machines upon purchase and acceptance by the vending customer. Product revenues recognized from the sale of energy conservation products are recognized when shipped to the customer. OUR MARKET The Company has focused on the Vending, Kiosk and Office Equipment industries in which to sell its networked, cashless payment systems, and has developed product offerings in each of these channels. The Company markets and sells its product and services directly to the owner, operator of the equipment and/or to equipment distributors and resellers established in each of the respective markets. 5
SB-2/A6th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 6th
Vending/Kiosk: The Company offers several variations of e-Port to the vending or kiosk industry such as an audit only device and an audit device coupled with cashless payment capabilities. Audit only devices allow the operator of the vending machine to remotely monitor the sales, inventory and diagnostic information of the machine it is embedded into. In addition, our point of purchase device allows the operator of the machine to offer their customers an alternative payment method to cash when purchasing product. Another variation of our e-Port product is our multi-media device. The multi-media e-Port client product is equipped with both the audit and cashless payment features, referred to above, but also includes the capability of displaying interactive advertising and content via a LCD color touch screen. Information obtained at the vending machine by our e-Port client device is transferred back to our network and made available to the operator via the Internet or email. Office Equipment: The TransAct can be sold separately and connected to office equipment already owned by the purchaser or it can be coupled with office equipment sold by the Company. The combined TransAct and office equipment product is called the Business Express and is sold to hotels wishing to provide their guests with 24x7x365 access to business center services. The same benefits of remote sales and inventory data monitoring, as described above, are available from the TransAct or Business Express product. Energy Conservation Products With the acquisition of Bayview in July 2003, the Company has acquired the following additional products: - VendingMiser(TM) installs in a cold drink vending machine and reduces the power consumption of the vending machine by an average of 46%; - CoolerMiser reduces the energy used by sliding glass or pull open glass-front coolers that contain non-perishable goods; - SnackMiser reduces the amount of electricity used by non-refrigerated snack vending machines; - MonitorMiser Plus is a computer monitor power controller. It works with all operating systems and performs by powering down the monitor based upon keyboard or mouse activity; - LaserMiser provides energy conservation to laser printers, shutting them down when they are idle. It is a plug-and-play device that is software transparent and capable of handling any laser printer with a parallel or serial connection; - Internal VendingMiser (IVM) is the second generation of the VendingMiser in development. It installs into cold drink vending machines and has the capability to control the cooling system and the advertising lights separately. Research and Development Costs 6
SB-2/A7th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 7th
The Company continuously pursues new product offerings related to our existing technology and accordingly invests resources and capital in research and development. For the years ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Company expensed approximately $1,505,000 and $1,187,000, respectively for the development of our proprietary technology and is reflected in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. ABOUT OUR OFFERING Our selling shareholders are as of the date of this prospectus as follows: * holders of 28,979,425 shares of common stock * holders of unexercised warrants which if exercised would represent 18,400,505 shares (based upon the price of our shares of $.17 on August 3, 2004, all of these warrants have exercise prices greater than this share price) Based upon the shares outstanding as of May 31, 2004 of 339,453,012 if all of these warrants are exercised, and all of these shares covered by this prospectus were issued and outstanding, we would have 386,832,942 shares outstanding. These shares would be offered by our selling shareholders at the market price at the time of resale. Our selling shareholders may also sell their shares to other investors in a transaction not on the open market. There is no requirement that our selling shareholders sell their shares pursuant to this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds raised by the offering. We would receive proceeds from the exercise by the selling shareholders of the warrants or the purchase by Steve Illes from us of shares, as referred to above. RISK FACTORS An investment in our common stock is very risky. You should be aware that you could lose the entire amount of your investment. Prior to making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the following risk factors and the other information contained in this prospectus. 1. We have a history of losses since inception and if we continue to incur losses the price of our shares can be expected to fall. We have experienced losses since inception. We expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future as we expend substantial resources on sales, marketing, and research and development of our products. From our inception through March 31, 2004, our cumulative losses are approximately $91.6 million. For our fiscal years ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, and for the nine months ended March 31, 2004, we have incurred net losses of $17,314,807, $21,965,499 and $16,424,278, respectively. If we continue to incur losses, the price of our common stock can be expected to fall. 2. Our existence is dependent on our ability to raise capital which may not be available. 7
SB-2/A8th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 8th
There is currently limited experience upon which to assume that our business will prove financially profitable or generate more than nominal revenues. From inception, we have generated funds primarily through the sale of securities. There can be no assurances that we will be able to continue to sell additional securities. We expect to raise funds in the future through sales of our debt or equity securities until such time, if ever, as we are able to operate profitably. There can be no assurance given that we will be able to obtain funds in such manner or on terms that are beneficial to us. For the three months ended March 31, 2004 we were using funds in our operations on a monthly basis of approximately $700,000. Using that as a basis for estimating cash requirements for the next twelve months, along with requirements for capital expenditures and repayment of long term debt, the Company's cash needs would approximate $9,000,000 through June 30, 2005. Our inability to obtain needed funding can be expected to have a material adverse effect on our operations and our ability to achieve profitability. If we fail to generate increased revenues or fail to sell additional securities you may lose all or a substantial portion of your investment. 3. We received an opinion from our auditor which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our auditors, Ernst and Young, LLP, have included an explanatory paragraph in their report on our June 30, 2003 consolidated financial statements indicating that as of June 30, 2003, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We will require additional funds in the future, and there can be no assurance that any independent auditors` report on our future financial statements will not include a similar explanatory paragraph if we are unable to raise sufficient funds or generate sufficient cash from operations to cover the cost of our operations. The existence of the explanatory paragraph may adversely affect our relationship with prospective customers, suppliers and potential investors, and therefore could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 4. We depend on our key personnel and if they would leave us, our business could be adversely affected. We are dependent on key management personnel, particularly the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, George R. Jensen, Jr. The loss of services of Mr. Jensen or other executive officers would dramatically affect our business prospects. Certain of our employees are particularly valuable to us because: o they have specialized knowledge about our company and operations; o they have specialized skills that are important to our operations; or o they would be particularly difficult to replace. We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Jensen that expires in June 30, 2005. We have also entered into employment agreements with other executive officers, each of which contain non-compete agreements. We have obtained a key man life insurance policy in the amount of $2,000,000 on Mr. Jensen, and a key man life insurance policy in the amount of $1,000,000 on our Vice-President-Research and Development, Haven Brock Kolls, Jr. We do not have and do not intend to obtain key man life insurance coverage on any of our other executive officers. As a result, we are exposed to the costs associated with the death of these key employees. 5. USA's dependence on proprietary technology and limited ability to protect our intellectual property may adversely affect our ability to compete. 8
SB-2/A9th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 9th
A successful challenge to our ownership of our technology could materially damage our business prospects. Our technology may infringe upon the proprietary rights of others. Our success is dependent in part on our ability to obtain patent protection for our proprietary products, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing the proprietary rights of others. To date, we have 39 pending patent applications, and intend to file applications for additional patents covering our future products, although there can be no assurance that we will do so. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will maintain or prosecute these applications. The United States Government and other countries have granted us 49 patents as of May 31, 2004. See "Business - Patents, Trademarks and Proprietary Information." There can be no assurance that: o any of the remaining patent applications will be granted to us; o we will develop additional products that are patentable or do not infringe the patents of others; o any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitive advantages or adequate protection for our products; o any patents issued to us will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by others; or o any of our products would not infringe the patents of others. If any of the products are found to have infringed any patent, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain licenses to continue to manufacture and license such product or that we will not have to pay damages as a result of such infringement. Even if a patent application is granted for any of our products, there can be no assurance that the patented technology will be a commercial success or result in any profits to us. 6. Competition from others with greater resources could prevent USA from increasing revenue and achieving profitability. Competition from other companies which are well established and have substantially greater resources may reduce our profitability. Many of our competitors have established reputations for success in the development, sale and service of high quality products. We face competition from the following groups: o companies offering automated, credit card activated control systems in connection with facsimile machines, personal computers, debit card purchase/revalue stations, and use of the Internet and e-mail which directly compete with our products. See "Business-Competition"; o companies which have developed unattended, credit card activated control systems currently used in connection with public telephones, prepaid telephone cards, gasoline dispensing machines, or vending machines and are capable of developing control systems in direct competition with USA; and o businesses which provide access to the Internet and personal computers to hotel guests. Although these services are not credit card activated, such services would compete with USA's Business Express(R). Competition may result in lower profit margins on our products or may reduce potential profits or result in a loss of some or all of our customer base. To the extent that our competitors are able to offer more attractive technology, our ability to compete could be adversely affected. 7. The termination of any of our relationships with third parties upon whom we rely for supplies and services that are critical to our products could adversely affect our business and delay achievement of our business plan. 9
SB-2/A10th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 10th
We depend on arrangements with third parties for a variety of component parts used in our products. We have contracted with RadiSys Corporation and Masterwork Electronics to assist us to develop and manufacture our e-Port(TM) products. For other components, we do not have supply contracts with any of our third-party suppliers and we purchase components as needed from time to time. See "Business-Procurement". We have contracted with IBM to develop our network services so that these services are Internet capable as well as interact with our proposed media capable e-Post(TM). We have contracted with IBM to host our network in a secure, 24/7 environment to ensure reliability of our network services. If these business relationships are terminated, the implementation of our business plan may be delayed until an alternative supplier or service provider can be retained. If we are unable to find another source or one that is comparable, the content and quality of our products could suffer and our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed. 8. We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore investors should not anticipate cash dividends on their investment. The holders of our common stock and series A preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends when, and if, declared by our board of directors. Our board of directors does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but instead intends to retain any and all earnings to finance the growth of the business. To date, we have not paid any cash dividends on the common stock or series A preferred stock and there can be no assurance that cash dividends will ever be paid on the common stock. In addition, our articles of incorporation prohibit the declaration of any dividends on the Common Stock unless and until all unpaid and accumulated dividends on the Series A preferred stock have been declared and paid. Through May 31, 2004, the unpaid and cumulative dividends on the series A preferred stock equal $6,677,180. The unpaid and cumulative dividends on the series A preferred stock are convertible into shares of common stock at the rate of $10.00 per share at the option of the shareholder. Through May 31, 2004, $2,684,444 of unpaid and cumulative dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock were converted into 288,521 shares of common stock. See "Description of Securities-Series A Convertible Preferred Stock." 9. We may fail to gain widespread market acceptance of our products and not generate sufficient revenues or profit margins to become successful. There can be no assurance that demand for our products will be sufficient to enable us to become profitable. Likewise, no assurance can be given that we will be able to install the TransActs and e-Ports at enough locations or sell equipment utilizing our network to enough locations to achieve significant revenues or that our operations can be conducted profitably. Alternatively, the locations which would utilize the network may not be successful locations and our revenues would be adversely affected. We may in the future lose locations utilizing our products to competitors, or may not be able to install our products at competitor's locations. In addition, there can be no assurance that our products could evolve or be improved to meet the future needs of the market place. 10
SB-2/A11th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 11th
10. The lack of an established trading market may make it difficult to transfer our stock and you may not be able to sell your shares on our trading market. Our Common Stock is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board. Although there is limited trading in the Common Stock, there is no established trading market. Until there is an established trading market, holders of the common stock may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations for the price of the common stock. See "Description of Securities - Shares Eligible For Future Sale" and "Market For Common Stock." 11. There are rules governing low-priced stocks that may make it more difficult for you to resell your shares. Our common stock is currently considered a "penny stock" under federal securities laws since its market price is below $5.00 per share. Penny stock rules generally impose additional sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who sell our shares to certain investors. Broker-dealers who sell penny stock to certain types of investors are required to comply with the SEC's regulations concerning the transfer of penny stock. If an exemption is not available, these regulations require broker-dealers to: - make a suitability determination prior to selling penny stock to the purchaser; - receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction; and - provide certain written disclosures to the purchaser. - These rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to make a market in or trade our shares. This, in turn, may affect your ability to resell those shares in the public market. 12. The substantial market overhang of our shares and registered resales under this prospectus will tend to depress the market price of our shares. The substantial number of our shares currently eligible for sale in the open market will tend to depress the market price of our shares. See "Description of Securities--Shares Eligible for Future Sale" and "Market for Securities". As of May 31, 2004, these shares consisted of the following: - 339,453,012 shares of Common Stock - 522,742 shares of Preferred Stock - 20,337,777 shares underlying Common Stock options and warrants; and - 49,276,805 shares underlying our Convertible Senior Notes. 13. Sales of shares eligible for future sale from exercise of warrants and options could depress the market price of our common stock. We presently have issued and outstanding options to purchase 2,134,232 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 18,203,545 shares. The shares underlying all of these options and warrants have been registered and may be freely sold upon issuance. Market sales of large amounts of our common stock, or the potential for those sales even if they do not actually occur, may have the effect of depressing the market price of our common stock. In addition, if our future financing needs require us to issue additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock, the supply of common stock available for resale could be increased which could stimulate trading activity and cause the market price of our common stock to drop, even if our business is doing well. 11
SB-2/A12th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 12th
14. We are obligated to make substantial principal and interest payments to the holders of the Senior Notes which may not be available or would use our available working capital. As of the May 31, 2004 we have approximately $451,152 of unsecured senior notes due on December 31, 2004, approximately $3,011,791 of unsecured senior notes due on December 31, 2005, approximately $3,213,500 of unsecured notes due on December 31, 2006, and approximately $3,404,490 of unsecured notes due on December 31, 2007. These notes accrue cash interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per year. We are required to make quarterly interest payments totaling approximately $302,428 or $1,209,712 each year. Until the Senior Notes have been paid by us, they will be reflected as a liability on our financial statements, net of the related unamortized discount and other issuance costs. Our ability to satisfy the debt obligations is dependent on our future performance, the success of our product lines and on our ability to raise capital. Our performance is also subject to financial, business and market factors affecting our business and operations. We anticipate that the Senior Notes will be paid from cash from operations, as well as proceeds from securities offerings. However, there can be no assurance that we will meet our obligations to pay quarterly interest on or the principal amount of the senior notes at maturity. The payment of the interest and principal on these notes would utilize our available working capital which would not be available for other purposes. 15. Our exchange of New Senior Notes to our 2004 Senior Note holders may have been in violation of the registration provisions of the securities laws. As a result, certain of our note holders may be granted the right to rescind the exchange and demand the return of their old note to them by us which matures in December 2004. The repayment of these notes in December 2004 would adversely affect our liquidity. 12

The holders of $4,067,491 of our Senior Notes due December 31, 2007, may have a right to rescind the exchange of these notes for notes originally due December 31, 2004, and demand that we return to them the $4,067,491 of notes due December 31, 2004. As of May 31, 2004, $3,404,490 of these notes remain outstanding. During the period from March 2003 through December 2003, we granted to each holder of the notes due December 31, 2004 the right to extend the notes until December 31, 2007 and in such event agreed that the conversion rate of the note would be reduced from $.40 to $.20. On April 14, 2003 we filed a Registration Statement which included the shares underlying the 2007 notes. Because the exchange offering was not completed prior to the filing of this registration statement, the exchange offer may be deemed to have been in violation of the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act. As a result, we removed all of the shares underlying the 2007 Notes from that registration statement. Generally, the statute of limitations for this type of claim is one year after the date of the alleged violations and if successful, would entitle the Note holders to rescind the issuance of the new notes to them and demand a return of the 2004 Senior Notes. If all of the note holders demanded the return of their notes, we would be obligated to repay the $4,067,491 principal amount on December 31, 2004 rather than on December 31, 2007. This repayment could significantly exceed our cash reserves and require us to borrow funds (which may not be available) and would materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. USE OF PROCEEDS We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sales of our Common Stock by the selling shareholders. The list of the selling shareholders entitled to receive the net proceeds from any sales of our common stock begins on page 49 of this prospectus. We will, however, receive proceeds from the exercise of any warrants by the selling shareholders. As of the date of this prospectus, we would receive $3,680,101 of proceeds from the exercise of all these warrants at the stated exercise prices. Because all of these warrants have exercise prices of $.20 per share, none of these warrants are in the money as of the date of this prospectus. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES GENERAL The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We believe the policies and estimates related to revenue recognition, software development costs, impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets, and investments represent our critical accounting policies and estimates. Future results may differ from our estimates under different assumptions or conditions. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue from the sale of equipment is recognized on the terms of freight-on-board shipping point, or upon installation and acceptance of the equipment if installation services are purchased for the related equipment. Transaction processing revenue is recognized upon the usage of the Company's cashless payment and control network. Service fees for access to the Company's equipment and network services are recognized on a monthly basis. Product revenues are recognized from the sale of products from Company owned vending machines when there is purchase and acceptance by the vending customer. Customers have the ability to return vending products for a full refund. The Company estimates an allowance of product returns at the date of sale. Product revenue recognized from the sale of energy conservation products are recognized when shipped to the customer. 13

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS The Company capitalizes software development costs pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86 (SFAS No. 86), "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed", after technological feasibility of the software is established and through the product's availability for general release to the Company's customers. All costs incurred in the research and development of new software and costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are expensed as incurred. Amortization of software development costs commences when the product becomes available for general release to customers. Amortization of software development costs is calculated as the greater of the amount computed using (i) the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues of that product or (ii) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product. The Company reviews the unamortized software development costs at each balance sheet date and, if necessary, will write down the balance to net realizable value if the unamortized costs exceed the net realizable value of the asset. During May 2000, the Company reached technological feasibility for the development of the multi-media e-Port client product and related enhanced network and, accordingly, the Company commenced capitalization of software development costs related to this product and network. Costs capitalized through 2002 were $5.3 million, which included capitalized interest of approximately $493,000, pursuant to SFAS No. 34, "Capitalization of Interest Costs". During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, the multi-media e-Port(TM) client product and enhanced network became available for general release to the Company's customers. The multimedia e-port(TM) client product is equipped with both the audit and cashless payment features, but also includes the capability of displaying interactive advertising and content via a LCD screen. During this quarter, Management performed an evaluation of the commercial success and preliminary market acceptance of the multi-media e-Port(TM) client product and enhanced network and as a result of this evaluation the Company determined that the estimated future revenues less costs to complete and dispose of the multi-media e-Port client product was zero. Therefore, the Company wrote down $2,663,000 of software development costs related to the multi-media e-Port client product. The unamortized balance of the software development costs after the impairment charge is being amortized over an estimated useful life of two years. Amortization expense was approximately $1,331,000 during the year ended June 30, 2003, $2,996,000 during the year ended June 30, 2002 (including the above impairment adjustment of $2,663,000) and $999,000 for nine months ended March 31, 2004. Such amortization is reflected in cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG LIVED ASSETS The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 on July 1, 2002. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the Company reviews its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003, the Company reviewed certain long-lived assets (vending machines) and determined that such assets were impaired. These vending machines were used in the Company's Kodak Program to sell disposable cameras and film. Management determined that it was more likely than not that the vending machines would be disposed of before the end of their previously estimated useful lives. The 14
SB-2/A15th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 15th
estimated undiscounted cash flows for this group of assets was less than the carrying value of the related assets. As a result, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $321,000 representing the difference between the fair value as determined from a quoted market price and carrying value of the group of assets. Such amount is reflected in depreciation expense in the 2003 consolidated statement of operations. During the nine months ended March 31, 2004, the agreement for the Kodak Program was terminated as a result of the settlement of a dispute among the parties to the agreement. The settlement provides, among other things, that the Company will receive $300 for each of the vending machines used in the Kodak Program which resulted in a further write down of $290,000 in the carrying value of the vending machines. This charge is included in gain on termination of contract in the consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2004. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS On July 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (SFAS No. 142) "Goodwill and other Intangible Assets," under which Goodwill is no longer permitted to be amortized to earnings, but instead is subject to periodic testing for impairment. Intangible assets with finite lives will continue to be amortized over their estimated useful lives. Although the Company did not adopt Statement No. 142 until fiscal year 2003, the non-amortization provisions of Statement No. 142 for combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 were applicable for the Company effective July 1, 2001. Under SFAS No. 142, the Company tested goodwill for impairment during fiscal year 2003 using the transitional two-step process prescribed by SFAS No. 142. The first step of the goodwill impairment test is used to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair value of the Company with its net book value (or carrying amount), including goodwill. If the fair value of the Company exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is considered not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of the Company exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the Company's goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the Company's goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Determining the fair value of the Company under the first step of the goodwill impairment test and determining the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a the Company (including unrecognized intangible assets) under the second step of the goodwill impairment test is judgmental in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Similarly, estimates and assumptions are used in determining the fair value of other intangible assets. These estimates and assumptions could have a significant impact on whether or not an impairment charge is recognized and also the magnitude of any such charge. To assist in the process of determining goodwill impairment, the Company performed an internal valuation and estimated fair value using a discounted cash flow analysis. This approach uses significant estimates and assumptions, which include projected future cash flows (including timing), discount rate reflecting the risk inherent in future cash flows and a perpetual growth rate. The Company performed an annual impairment test of goodwill as of April 1, 2003, as prescribed by SFAS and concluded that there were no impairment indicators. The Company will perform the impairment tests required under SFAS No. 142 on an annual basis unless other indicators are present. INVESTMENT The Company accounts for investments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 (SFAS 115), "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". Management determines the appropriate classifications of securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. Available for sale securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses reported in a separate component of stockholders' equity in other comprehensive income (loss). 15
SB-2/A16th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 16th
A judgmental aspect of accounting for investments involves determining whether an other-than-temporary decline in value of the investment has been sustained. If it has been determined that an investment has sustained an other-than-temporary decline in its value, the investment is written down to its fair value, by a charge to earnings. Such evaluation is dependent on the specific facts and circumstances. Factors that are considered by the Company each quarter in determining whether an other-than-temporary decline in value has occurred include: the market value of the security in relation to its cost basis; the financial condition of the investee; and the intent and ability to retain the investment for a sufficient period of time to allow for recovery in the market value of the investment. In evaluating the factors above for available-for-sale securities, management presumes a decline in value to be other-than-temporary if the quoted market price of the security is below the investment's cost basis for a period of six months or more. However, the presumption of an other-than-temporary decline in these instances may be overcome if there is persuasive evidence indicating that the decline is temporary in nature (e.g., strong operating performance of investee, historical volatility of investee, etc.). During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, the Company invested in the Jubilee Investment Trust, PLC (Jubilee), a United Kingdom investment trust whose shares trade on the London Stock Exchange. The investment in Jubilee has been accounted for as "available for sale". At June 30, 2003, the Company determined in accordance with SFAS 115, that the decline in the market value of this investment was "other than temporary", as the security's quoted market price was below the investments's cost basis for a period of six months or more. Accordingly, the Company wrote down the investment to its fair value of $904,049, realizing an impairment loss of $1,945,951.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2004: The nine months ended March 31, 2004 resulted in a net operating loss of $16,424,278 (approximately $9,500,000 non-cash) compared to a net loss of $12,542,898 (approximately $3,100,000 million non-cash) for the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. Revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 increased to $4,947,882 from $2,233,330 during the same period in the prior fiscal year, an increase of $2,714,552 or 122%. This increase was primarily attributed to sales of the Company's energy conservation equipment for the nine months ended March 31, 2004, as such revenues did not exist in the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year since the acquisition of Bayview occurred in July 2003, as well as increases in equipment sales of our cashless technologies and services. Revenues are discussed in more detail as follows: Equipment sales: Revenues from equipment sales increased to $3,741,359 from $880,545 in the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, an increase of $2,860,814 or 325%. This increase is mainly due to sales of the Company's energy conservation equipment of approximately $2,751,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 as such revenues did not exist in the corresponding quarter of the prior year, since the acquisition of Bayview occurred in July 2003. In addition, sales of the Company's cashless technology, which includes e-Port, e-Suds and Kiosk systems, increased to $521,000, approximately $225,000 or 76% over the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The increases in sales were offset by a decrease in Business Center equipment sales of approximately $84,000. Product sales and other: Revenues from product sales and other decreased to $304,476 from $357,703, a decrease of $53,227 or 15% over the same period of the prior fiscal year. This decrease was due to a decrease in camera and film sales from Company owned vending machines of approximately $254,000 as a result of the wind down of the Kodak Vending Placement Agreement, offset by $200,000 of revenue recorded in the quarter ended December 31, 2003 relating to the Strategic Alliance Agreement executed in October 2003 between the Company and Conopco, Inc dba Unilever Home & Personal Care North America. License and transaction fees: Revenues from license and transaction fees decreased $93,035 or 9% from $995,082 to $902,047 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively. This decrease was due to a decrease in fees earned from the Kodak Vending Placement Agreement of approximately $128,000 as a result of the wind down of the contract, offset by an increase in fees of approximately $35,000 as a result of an increase in the number of devices connected to the Company's network. 17

Cost of sales consisted of equipment, product and labor costs of approximately $1,750,000 and $723,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, an increase of $1,027,000; software development amortization of approximately $999,000 and $874,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, an increase of $125,000; and network and transaction related costs of $488,000 and $461,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, a increase of $27,000. The increase of $1,179,351 or 57% in total cost sales from $2,057,173 to $3,236,524 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively, was principally attributable to the increase in equipment sales. Gross profit for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 was $1,711,358, compared to gross profit of $176,157 in the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase of $1,535,201 was due to increases in hardware sales, particularly the addition of our higher margin, energy conservation equipment sales that were not present in the same period in the prior fiscal year. Total operating expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 was $15,306,671, (non-cash $7,200,000) an increase of $5,895,104 or 63% over the same period from the prior fiscal year. The components of operating expenses (General and administrative, Compensation, Depreciation and amortization and Loss on debt modification) and the causes of this significant increase in each category are explained further below: General and administrative expenses increased from $4,951,021 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 to $5,096,447 for the nine months ended March 31, 2004, an increase of $145,426 or 3%. This increase is due to increases in overall general and administrative expenses of approximately $1,001,000 related to the acquired energy conservation operation, as such expenses did not exist in the comparable period last fiscal year. This increase was offset by decreases of $873,000 of professional fees, primarily related to business consulting, promotion and public relations. Compensation expense increased to $8,664,200 (non-cash $4,700,000) for the nine months ended March 31, 2004, a $5,897,032 or 213% increase over the comparable period last fiscal year. This increase is primarily due to the issuance of 10,500,000 shares of Common Stock to the Company's Chief Executive Officer in connection with the amendment of his employment agreement. This was a one-time, non-cash payment valued at $4,620,000 representing 80% of the total increase. Other components of this increase were due to approximately $554,000 increase in bonus expenses, primarily to the Company's executive officers and approximately $662,000 of additional compensation, including employee benefits and sales commissions, related to the acquired energy conservation operations in July 2003, as such expenses did not exist in the comparable period last fiscal year. Depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 was $1,227,109, compared to $734,026 for the same period in the prior fiscal year, a $493,083 or 67% increase. This increase was attributable to amortization expense of intangible assets of $681,000 and depreciation expense of property and equipment of $90,000 acquired from Bayview in July 2003, offset by decreases in depreciation of existing assets that have reached the end of their estimated useful life. 18

The Company incurred charges during the nine months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 relating to the modification of debt terms for certain of the Senior Notes in the amount of $318,915 and $959,352, respectively. This charge is for the write-off of the unamortized debt discount remaining for Senior Notes scheduled to mature in December 2003 and December 2004 whose conversion and maturity terms were modified. The Company offered these note modifications to the Note holders, and recognized the related non-cash charge to operations in order to manage short-term cash flows. During the nine months ended March 31, 2004, a gain of $509,244 was recorded relating to the termination the Kodak Vending Placement Agreement. This gain is comprised of the payment from Kodak of approximately $675,000 plus the cancellation of Stitch's obligation to the supplier of the vending machines of approximately $124,000 less a write down of the carrying value of vending machines of approximately $290,000 to their realizable value of $300 per vending machine. To the extent any costs are incurred by Stitch to fulfill its obligations under the settlement agreement, these costs will be recorded as incurred, as any additional costs cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. During the nine months ended March 31, 2004, the Company sold 1,669,091 shares of its Jubilee investment for total net proceeds of $1,471,142, resulting in a gain of $603,480. Proceeds of $762,130 were received subsequent to March 31, 2004 and are reflected as an other receivable as of that date. Total interest expense increased from $3,319,444 to $3,971,688 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively, an increase of $652,244 or 20%. This increase was primarily attributable to charges incurred due to the acceleration of unamortized debt discount and other issuance costs on the 12% Senior Notes that were converted into Common Stock during the nine month period ending March 31, 2004. FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2003: The fiscal year ended June 30, 2003 resulted in a net operating loss of $21,965,499 (approximately $12.6 million non-cash) compared to a net loss of $17,314,807 (approximately $11.0 million non-cash) for the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. Revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003 were $2,853,068, an increase of $1,170,367 or 70% from the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002. This increase in revenues is primarily due the inclusion of a full year of product revenues and service and transaction fees relating to Stitch Networks Corporation, which accounted for approximately $1,136,000 of the revenue increase. The remaining increase was due to increased equipment sales of e-Port and Business Express. The Company is continually increasing its sales efforts to sell its e-Port and Business Express products. Overall, operating expenses for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003 were $17,912,707, representing a $886,842 or 5% increase over the prior period. The significant changes in each category were as follows: The decrease of $1,091,458 or 27% in cost of sales is due primarily to amortization of software development costs of $1,331,000 in 2003 compared to $2,996,000 in 2002. The 2002 amortization included a one-time impairment charge of $2,663,000 that was non-recurring in fiscal year 2003. The remaining increase in cost of sales is attributable to the increase in e-Port sales during fiscal year 2003. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was $673,380 or 9%. This decrease is due to changes in the following expenses: consulting, advertising, public relations and promotion expense decrease of $1,368,022 for reduced corporate and investor relations services offset by increases in product development and outside services of $926,395 for work on the network. We have continued to utilize consultants for general business activities, including network services, and have attempted whenever possible to pay for these services on a non-cash basis through the issuance of debt and equity instruments. Compensation expense increased $318,548 or 7% over last year. This increase is due to the inclusion of salaries of $136,000 related to the Stitch operations as well as an increase of approximately $200,000 in bonus expense during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003 versus fiscal year ended June 30, 2002. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $811,478 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, which is attributable to increased depreciation expense resulting from assets acquired in the Stitch acquisition, as well as the impairment loss of $321,476 recorded on a group of vending machines during the fiscal year in accordance with SFAS No. 144. 19

The Company incurred a charge during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003 relating to the modification of debt terms for certain 2000 and 2001 12% Convertible Senior Notes in the amount of $1,521,654. There was no such comparable charge in the prior year. This charge is for the unamortized debt discount that remained on the Senior Notes that are scheduled to mature in December 2003 and December 2004 whose terms were modified for those note holders who agreed to extend the maturity of their notes in exchange for a reduction in the conversion rate. The Company offered these note modifications (e.g. extended maturity dates), and recognized the related non-cash charge to operations in order to manage short-term cash flows. In June 2003, the Company determined that the decline in the market value of the investment in the Jubilee Investment Trust was "other than temporary." Accordingly, the Company recorded a loss of $1,945,951, which is reflected as a loss on investment in the 2003 Consolidated Statement of Operations. No such comparable loss was recorded in the previous year. Total interest expense increased by $2,991,166, due to the greater debt carried by the Company to finance its operations. A significant portion of interest expense is the amortization of non-cash debt discount. FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2002: For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002, the Company had a net loss of $17,314,807 (approximately $11.0 million non-cash). Revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002 were $1,682,701, an increase of $231,699 or 16% from the prior year. This increase in revenues is directly attributable to the acquisition of Stitch Networks Corporation, which accounted for $210,068 of the increase. Other revenues remained flat with the prior year, as the Company's sales efforts did not produce significant revenues due to limited market acceptance, which was less than that anticipated by the Company. The Company is continually increasing its sales efforts to sell its e-Ports and its Business Express products. Overall, operating expenses for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002 were $17,025,865, representing a $7,365,090 or 76% increase over the prior year. This increase is due to the increases of $3,113,674 or 328% in cost of sales, $2,332,938 or 42% in general and administrative expenses, $1,687,886 or 57% in compensation expense, and $230,592 or 110% in depreciation and amortization expense. The significant changes in each category are as follows: The increase of $3,113,674 or 328% in cost of sales is due primarily to the inclusion of amortization of software development costs and the cost of product relating to Stitch Networks Corporation. In fiscal 2002, the Company recorded software amortization of $2,996,000, including an impairment charge of $2,663,000, in cost of sales as required by generally accepted accounting principles. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2002, the Company determined that the estimated future revenues less costs to complete and dispose the enhanced e-Port client product was zero, and therefore recorded this impairment charge to reflect software development costs at their net realizable value. There was no amortization expense for software development costs in fiscal year ended 2001. The remaining increase in cost of sales is attributable to the increase in sales, primarily related to the Stitch revenues in fiscal 2002. The increase in general and administrative expenses of $2,332,938 or 42% is due primarily to the increase in non-cash (securities) compensation in the amount of $555,482 paid to our investment banker, increase in the non-cash (securities) compensation paid to our public relations consultants in the amount of $1,601,915, and the increase in non-cash (securities) compensation in the amount of $657,238 paid to our other business consultants. Although these expenses did not result in increased revenues during the fiscal year, we believe that increased revenues may occur in the future. Our investment banker provided us with various financial advisory services during the fiscal year, including identifying strategic acquisition opportunities. Our public relations consultants assisted us to attempt to introduce the Company and its products as well as communicate with our shareholders. Our other business consultants assisted us during the fiscal year with technical development of and advice in connection with our network and e-Port products. The increases in our general and administrative expenses were offset by a substantial decrease in legal expenses of $992,181, primarily associated with termination of the Mail Boxes Etc. litigation, which was settled in fiscal year 2001. 20

The increase in compensation expense of $1,687,886 or 57% from the previous year is mainly attributable to an increase in stock bonus expense to Company officers and employees of $1,248,545, which was a non-cash expense. The stock bonuses were issued in order to adequately compensate and attempt to retain the Company's management team intact. Corporate salaries increased $342,921 or 113%, due to increased headcount by 16% during the year, primarily due to the addition of Stitch Network's personnel during the last one and one half months of 2002. Depreciation and amortization expense of $440,238 increased by $230,592, which is directly attributable to the increased depreciation expense of the assets acquired in the Stitch acquisition. Interest expense increased by $864,929, primarily as a result of the non-cash amortization to interest expense relating to the debt discount and beneficial conversion features on the Company's convertible Senior Notes. PLAN OF OPERATIONS Vending In February 2004, the Company and Motient Corporation, owner and operator of a two-way wireless data network, together launched a marketing program to bring vending machines online using the Company's e-Port cashless payment system and Motient's wireless data network. In December 2003, the Motient wireless network became available to the current generation of e-Port, on-line, vending technology. This connectivity capability has enabled customers to substantially ramp up the adoption of solutions such as cashless vending and data delivery. The targeted goal for the marketing program is to bring 10,000 units online by December 31, 2004. As of March 31, 2004, there were 260 units on the Company's network and Motient wireless network as result of this initiative. Coinciding with the Motient initiative, described above, was the identifying and pursuit of target markets where customers can be assured of early success from the adoption of cashless technology. As a result of this initiative, sales in the quarter ended March 31, 2004 increased over the 21

previous two quarters of the 2004 fiscal year, the largest ever increase in e-Port sales, with shipments to 19 different bottlers and vending operators, of which 11 were new accounts. Most notable were sales to an operator for the new Pop Century Hotel at Disney in Orlando, Florida and to a vending operator in Southern California, to address a growing problem of vandalism in their hotel locations. The Company's e-Port cashless payment solution enabled this operator to replace coins and bills completely, thus removing cash reserves in the machines. The following initiatives were launched during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004. First, the availability of new combo readers (combined bill validator and card reader in a single device) brought many joint selling opportunities with MEI and Coinco, manufacturers of these devices. Second, the Company began a campaign titled "Coca-Cola experience with cashless" aimed at acquiring as customers, Coke bottlers throughout the U.S., based upon experiences with current Coca-Cola customers. Lastly, the Company appointed John Roughneen, a successful vending executive, as VP of Strategic Business Development. Mr. Roughneen is well known within the vending industry, and his reputation and prior successes within the vending industry is already having a positive impact on our business. Energy Management With the acquisition of Bayview on July 11, 2003, the Company now designs and manufactures patented energy conservation devices for equipment such as laser printers, monitors, office peripherals, refrigerated vending machines and glass front merchandisers (referred to as slide or visi coolers). These energy conservation devices reduce power consumption of various types of equipment by allowing the equipment to operate in power saving mode when full power mode is not necessary. These devices, which include the VendingMiser, CoolerMiser, SnackMiser, MonitorMiser and LaserMiser can use activity, occupancy, temperature, timing or other various methods to determine which mode the equipment should be in. Route to market for the energy conservation devices is much the same as the Company's e-Port technology, with the notable addition of governmental and utility rebate and give-away programs, where by part or all of the cost of the energy management device is covered by government funds allocated to energy conservation projects. In April 2004, the Company launched "Project Get Green", an incentive program developed and sponsored by the National Automatic Merchandiser Association (NAMA) and the Company. This program is aimed at helping the vending industry meet new ENERGY STAR(R) standards for energy consumption that were announced in April 2004 by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The EPA's new standards represent a significant opportunity for the Company, as our technology will render a non-conforming vending machine ENERGY STAR(R) equivalent or compliant. The Company estimates that 4.6 million machines in the U.S. market are candidates for our energy management technology. The joint NAMA and Company initiative includes a 20 percent marketing allowance on the Company's energy management solutions through June 30, 2004 and the Company anticipates increased sales as a result of vending operators taking proactive actions to become compliant with the new EPA standards. In February 2004, in an effort to continue to strengthen its network of government and utility entities offering rebates for the Company's energy products, Eugene Water & Electric Board, a publicly owned electric utilities company located in the State of Oregon, agreed to offer a $120 rebate per 22

installation of the VendingMiser. To date the Company has twenty-two (22) power utility or government agencies currently offering rebates to customers who install the Company's energy products. In January 2004, the Company entered into an alliance with the EnergySmart Grocer, an energy consultant to independent grocers, to bring an energy conservation program, utilizing the Company's CoolerMiser and VendingMiser solutions, to thousands of independent grocery stores in the state of California. The program includes a rebate of $90 for every CoolerMiser and VendingMiser installed. To date, 390 units or $54,000 has been sold under this program. The Company has also targeted local, state and federal government agencies as customers for this product line. In order to increase the Company's reach in this regard, the Company embarked on a campaign for General Services Administration (GSA) approval, which would make these products available to all government agencies. The Company is anticipating GSA approval in the near term. Laundry In April 2004, the Company and Caldwell and Gregory entered into a five-year agreement, whereby the Company has granted Caldwell and Gregory rights, subject to total minimum purchase requirements of 10,500 units by September 2008, to exclusively provide e-Suds to colleges and universities in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee and the District of Columbia. In March 2004, the Company installed its eSuds Internet connected laundry system at Carnegie Mellon University, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on a limited number of machines for a pilot phase working through Caldwell and Gregory, a laundry service operator in the university and college laundry marketplace. After only two weeks into the pilot phase, due to favorable student response, Caldwell and Gregory and Carnegie Mellon University agreed to transition from the pilot to full implementation for the fall semester 2004, giving the universities 4,000 campus residents the ability to use the e-Suds laundry services. In October 2003, the Company signed a strategic alliance agreement with Conopco, Inc. dba Unilever Home & Personal Care North America to be the exclusive provider of laundry detergent for the e-Suds program to be used in colleges and universities located in the United States. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company agrees to be a reseller of Unilever Products that are dispensed through the USA e-Suds System and the Company will also receive fees from Unilever based on the number of injections of Unilever Products through the USA e-Suds System. American Sales Inc. (ASI) has signed a five-year agreement to purchase units of Stitch's e-Suds laundry solution for their university locations in the Midwest. In October 2003, the Company installed a system at ASI's facilities for testing, which completed final testing in May 2004. In June 2004, the Company realized unit sales. ZiLOG Strategic Alliance In October 2002, the Company signed a five-year Strategic Alliance with ZiLOG Corporation, a semiconductor company, which is a supplier of microprocessors to the retail point of sale and other industries. One of the purposes of this alliance was to combine the Company's proprietary e-Port software with ZiLOG's eZ80 line of microprocessors, such that the Company might be able to improve price/performance of its product line, and allow ZiLOG to market an e-Port enabled, network ready, eZ80 microprocessor. Since the signing of this agreement, the Company has developed, commercialized and implemented, for purchase by its customers, products and services utilizing the work-product of this alliance. For example, in its e-Suds product line, the Company has contracted with Caldwell and Gregory, and American Sales Inc. for up to 19,000 e-Suds "connections". Additionally, the Company has developed, and is beginning to test, its new G-5 e-Port for the vending market. The Company has also worked with ZiLOG to create an e-Port enabled eZ80 ZiLOG processor, which is intended to allow ZiLOG customers to engineer and manufacture their products with the capability to attach to a network, and in some cases, the Company's network. The e-Port enabled eZ80 ZiLOG processor has been shown at various trade events, and has been demonstrated to a limited number of potential customers. The Company expects to gain market traction due to improved price/performance - such as in e-Suds and the new G-5 e-Port for vending. Additionally, the Company intends to license software embedded in the e-Port enabled ZiLOG eZ80, as well as, possibly providing network services for ZiLOG customers who engineer and manufacture the e-Port enabled eZ80 ZiLOG processor into the products they bring to market. Kodak Vending In December 2003, the parties to the Kodak Vending Placement Agreement agreed to terms of an early termination of the contract effective December 31, 2003. The settlement resulted in the termination of the vending agreement pursuant to which the Company received a payment from Kodak of approximately $675,000 and payments equal to $300 per vending machine from the supplier of the vending machines as the machines are pulled from service at the supplier's sole 23
SB-2/A24th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 24th
cost and expense. Upon receipt of the $300 per vending machine, title to the vending machine will transfer to the supplier. The settlement agreement provides that all machines are to be pulled from service no later than mid calendar year 2004. As of the date of this prospectus, substantially all of the machines are no longer in service. In addition, the supplier agreed to cancel an obligation for the purchase of vending machines in the approximate amount of $124,000. The vending machines were used as collateral to secure a bank facility used to purchase the machines under which $377,653 was outstanding as of March 31, 2004. Final payment of the debt will occur no later than the time title of the machines is transferred to the supplier. Revenues of the Company will be reduced as a result of the vending contract termination. However, because the Kodak program is and has been operating at a loss, the termination of the program would eliminate these ongoing losses. Revenues related to the Kodak program through the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003 were approximately $1,092,000 and approximately $124,000 and $471,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2004, respectively. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, the Company completed several financing transactions. Net proceeds of $9,930,879 were realized from private placement offerings of Common Stock including the exercise of Common Stock Purchase Warrants and Options. Proceeds of $1,833,841 were realized from private placement offerings of 12% Convertible Senior Notes. As of June 30, 2003, the Company had a working capital deficit of $791,532. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, net cash of $9,228,899 was used by operating activities, primarily due to the net loss of $21,965,499 offset by the following non-cash charges: $2,573,301 for Common Stock, Common Stock Warrants and Senior Notes issued for services; $2,743,083 of non cash depreciation and amortization; $2,955,158 of non-cash amortization of the debt discount relating to the 12% Convertible Senior Notes; $1,945,951 for a realized loss on the investment in the Jubilee Trust; $1,521,654 loss realized on the modifications of the Senior Notes; and $860,250 of interest expense on the Senior Notes paid through the issuance of Common Stock. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, net cash used in investing activities was $186,895 principally due to the investment in computer equipment and furniture and equipment of $149,000 (a reduction of over $2 million from 2002 for investments in property, equipment and software development costs). The net cash provided by financing activities of $11,242,279 was attributable primarily to net proceeds generated from the issuance of Common Stock through private placements, exercise of Common Stock Purchase Warrants, and net proceeds generated through the issuance of the 12% Convertible Senior Notes offset by the payment of long-term debt and capital leases of $557,441. In connection with the May 2002 Stitch acquisition (Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), the Company assumed long term debt of $3,976,000, which included a vending equipment borrowing facility and working capital loans. The Company repaid $2,165,000 of the working capital loans in June 2002 leaving an outstanding balance of $275,000. These loans are secured by certain assets of Stitch. At June 30, 2003 $166,765 of working capital loans are outstanding which bear interest at 6.75% per annum. Such loans were payable on July 8, 2002. During fiscal year 2003 the bank extended the due date on these loans on several occasions under forbearance agreements. At June 30, 2003, the Company was in default under this working capital loan agreement. At June 30, 2003 and March 31, 2004 the Company also has a bank facility (the Facility), which was utilized to fund the purchase of vending machines placed at locations where Kodak film products are sold. Borrowings were made from time to time under the facility, with repayment schedules set at the time of each borrowing, including equal monthly payments over 36 months and an interest rate based upon 495 basis points over the three year U.S. Treasury Notes. The Company has granted the bank a security interest in these vending machines. Repayment of principal is also insured by a Surety Bond issued by a third-party insurer in exchange for an initial fee paid by the Company. For the nine months ended March 31, 2004, net cash of $7,653,857 was used by operating activities, primarily due to the net loss of $16,424,278 offset by non-cash charges aggregating approximately $9,500,000 for transactions involving issuing Common Stock for services and in connection with the amendment to the CEO's employment agreement, depreciation and amortization of assets, amortization of debt discount, loss on debt modifications relating to the Senior Notes and interest expense relating to the Senior Notes paid through the issuance of Common Stock and Common Stock Warrants, offset by a gain on the sale of investment and gain on the termination of a contract. In addition, the Company's net operating assets increased by $778,969 (primarily inventory and accounts receivable), a substantial portion of which relates to the addition of the energy conservation equipment line from the Bayview acquisition. For the nine months ended March 31, 2004, net cash used in investing activities was $257,351, comprised of the cash component of the investment in Bayview, purchases of property and equipment and the proceeds received from the sale of a portion of the investment in the Jubilee Trust. Proceeds from financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 provided $6,986,182 of funds, which was necessary to support cash used in operating and investing activities. Proceeds of $7,544,590 were realized from several private placement offerings of Common Stock, the exercise of Common Stock Warrants and collection of Common Stock subscriptions receivable. Payments of long-term debt and capital leases totaled $558,408. Long-term debt obligations of the Company as of March 31, 2004 were as follows: Bank facility $377,653 Working capital loans 76,765 Other, including capital lease obligations 42,462 -------- 496,880 Less current portion 479,070 -------- $ 17,810 ======== 24

The bank facility (the Facility) was utilized to fund the purchase of vending machines placed at locations where Kodak film products are sold. Borrowings were made from time to time under the Facility, with repayment schedules set at the time of each borrowing, including equal monthly payments over 36 months and an interest rate based upon 495 basis points over the three year U.S. Treasury Notes. The Company granted the bank a security interest in the vending machines. Repayment of principal is also insured by a Surety Bond issued by a third-party insurer in exchange for an initial fee paid by the Company. Final maturity, scheduled to extend into the fiscal year ending June 30, 2005, is anticipated to occur during the year ending June 30, 2004 due to the termination of the vending placement agreement and the removal from service and sale of the vending machines used as collateral for the bank facility. As described above, the debt, with a balance outstanding at March 31, 2004 of $377,653, will be repaid no later than the time Stitch returns the vending machines to the supplier. In connection with the Stitch acquisition, the Company assumed long-term debt which included a working capital loan. This loan is secured by certain assets of Stitch and bears interest at 6.75% per annum. On November 6, 2003, the Company reached an agreement with the bank to make monthly installments that will repay the remaining balance on the working capital loan by October 2004. The Company has incurred losses since inception. For the nine months ended March 31, 2004, the net loss was $16,424,278 of which approximately $9,500,000 related to non-cash charges. Cumulative losses through March 31, 2004 amounted to approximately $91,600,000. The Company has continued to raise capital through equity and debt offerings to fund operations. The impact of the Bayview acquisition on cash flows for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 was a net cash outflow of approximately $1,000,000 - $300,000 of cash used in operations and $728,000 invested in assets and liabilities connected with the purchase. The structure of the acquisition of the energy conservation equipment line from Bayview did not include acquiring the working capital required to support the business. The nine months' operating cash flows reflected an investment for this working capital. On March 31, 2004, the Company had approximately $1,500,000 of cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2004, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3,000,000. These cash balances resulted from the proceeds generated from the various private placements of Common Stock that have taken place during fiscal 2004, the most recent of which is the 2004-A offering. The 2004-A offering was initiated in February 2004 and resulted in the sale of 28,290,833 shares at $0.15 per share. Through March 31, 2004, 550,000 shares were sold under this offering resulting in gross proceeds of $82,500, and subsequent to this date, 27,740,833 shares were sold under this offering resulting in gross proceeds of $4,161,125. In addition, warrants were exercised during the three months ended June 30, 2004 pursuant to which more than 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock were issued providing proceeds of approximately $1,800,000. On June 18, 2004, we entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Steve Illes. During the one year period following the date of effectiveness of a registration statement covering the shares, Illes has agreed to purchase from USA shares of Common Stock, provided that the aggregate purchase price can not exceed $7,500,000. Under the Agreement, Illes is permitted to purchase Common Stock from USA at any time at the price per share of $.30. In addition, USA has the right at any time to require Illes to purchase Common Stock from USA at the lower of: (i) $.30; or (ii) 90% of the closing bid price per share on the date prior to the date of the delivery by USA to Illes of notice of his obligation to purchase. USA can require Illes to purchase shares under the Agreement only if the shares have been registered by the Company for resale by Illes under the Act. During any calendar month, Illes is not permitted to purchase and can not be required by USA to purchase Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price in excess of $700,000. In July 2004, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission indicated that because of the discretion given to Mr. Illes under the agreement to purchase shares at any time for $.30 per share, it was not appropriate to register the shares unless this discretion was eliminated. Promptly following the date of this prospectus, the Company intends to attempt to renegotiate the agreement with Mr. Illes. If the Company is successful, the Company intends to file a new registration statement covering the shares. 25

During the year ended June 30, 2003, cash used in operating activities was approximately $750,000 per month. For the nine months ended March 31, 2004 cash used in operating activities was approximately $850,000 per month. Operating cash flows during the nine months ended March 31, 2004 were impacted by working capital increases that were disproportionate to the increase in revenues, as well as the investment made in working capital to support the energy management equipment line acquired from Bayview. The nine-month period also absorbed cash bonuses of approximately $600,000, primarily to the Company's executive officers. The Company believes it can improve its management of working capital, primarily related to accounts receivable, and reduce cash used in operating activities to approximately $700,000 per month, which is comparable to cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2004. The foregoing estimated monthly cash requirement assumes no significant increase in revenues. Using that as a basis for estimating cash requirements for the next twelve months, along with requirements for capital expenditures and repayment of long-term debt, the Company's cash needs would approximate $9,000,000 through June 30, 2005. If cash requirements materialize over the next twelve months on the basis described, the Company would expect that the cash resources currently available and in place should be sufficient to provide funding for its operating needs over that period considering cash on hand as of June 30, 2004 and anticipated funding of up to $7,500,000 under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Steve Illes. If we are not successful in renegotiating our agreement with Mr. Illes and timely registering the shares, the Company would attempt to enter into appropriate financing arrangements with another investor, or raise the necessary capital through additional private placement offerings of securities. Other sources of capital include (1) future exercises of warrants for which there are "in the money" warrants with exercise prices below $0.11 per share that would yield approximately $1,000,000 based on the warrants outstanding as of May 31, 2004 and (ii) the capital markets which the Company believes are available to raise funding if needed given its current product offerings and the markets it is addressing. 26

The holders of $4,067,491 of our Senior Notes due December 31, 2007, may have a right to rescind the exchange of these notes for notes originally due December 31, 2004, and demand that we return to them the $4,067,491 of Senior Notes due December 31, 2004. As of May 31, 2004, $3,404,490 of these notes remain outstanding. During the period from March 2003 through December 2003, we granted to each holder of the Senior Notes due December 31, 2004 the right to extend the notes until December 31, 2007 and in such event agreed that the conversion rate of the note would be reduced from $.40 to $.20. On April 14, 2003 we filed a registration statement which included all of the shares underlying the 2007 notes. Because the exchange offering was not completed prior to the filing of that Registration Statement, the exchange offer may be deemed to have been in violation of the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act. As a result, we removed all of the shares underlying the 2007 Notes from that registration statement. Generally, the statute of limitations for this type of claim is one year after the date of the alleged violations and if successful, would entitle the note holders to rescind the issuance of the new notes to them and demand a return of the 2004 notes. If all of the note holders demanded the return of their notes, we would be obligated to repay the $4,067,491 principal amount on December 31, 2004 rather than on December 31, 2007. This repayment could significantly exceed our cash reserves and require us to borrow funds (which may not be available) and would materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Because of the reduced conversion rate of $.20 per share granted in connection with the extension of the maturity date of these notes, we do not anticipate that a significant number of the noteholders, if any, would demand the return of their old note. Commitments During March 2003, the Company entered into a lease through December 31, 2008 for 12,864 square feet of space in Malvern, Pennsylvania for its principal executive office. The operating lease provides for escalating rent payments and a period of free rent prior to the commencement of the monthly lease payment in January 2004 of approximately $25,000 per month. 27

As a result of the acquisition of Bayview, the Company assumed two additional operating leases for office space located in Denver Colorado, which expire in June 2005. The Denver office space leases 6,742 square feet of space for approximately $6,000 per month. The lease agreements generally require the Company to pay certain operating expenses, maintenance and property taxes. OTHER EVENTS From February through June 2004, the Company sold 28,290,833 shares of Common Stock to 34 accredited investors at $.15 per share for an aggregate of $4,243,625. During June 2004, the Company granted to each investor in the offering a warrant to purchase one-half of a share for each share subscribed for by such investor in the offering. The Company issued warrants to purchase a total of 14,145,417 shares. The warrants are exercisable at $.20 per share at any time through December 31, 2004. We have agreed to register the shares and the shares underlying the warrants under the Act for resale for a period of two years. The offer and sales of the shares was exempt from registration under Rule 506 promulgated under Section 4(2) of the Act. All of the investors were either pre-existing security holders or business associates. The offer and sale thereof did not involve any general advertising or solicitation and the securities contained appropriate restrictive legends under the Act. In January 2004, we issued 538,592 shares and warrants to purchase up to 538,592 shares to the holders of our senior notes who elected to receive these securities in lieu of the cash interest payment due for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 and for shares and warrants pertaining to prior quarters not previously registered. The shares were purchased at the rate of $.20 per share and the warrants are exercisable at $.20 per share at any time through August 30, 2004. We have agreed to register the shares and the shares underlying the warrants under the Act for resale for a period of 2 years. The securities were offered and sold under the exemption from registration set forth in Rule 506 promulgated under the Act. All of the noteholders are accredited investors and existing security holders, and there was no general solicitation or advertising. In June 2004, we issued warrants to purchase up to 3,716,496 shares of Common Stock to the holders of our senior notes who elected to receive shares and warrants in lieu of the cash interest payment due for the quarters ended June 30, 2002, September 30, 2002, December 31, 2002, March 31, 2003, June 30, 2003, September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2003. For each warrant previously issued to the noteholder, the noteholder received an additional warrant. The warrants are exercisable at $.20 per share at any time through December 31, 2004. We have agreed to register the shares underlying the warrants under the Act for resale for a period of 2 years. The securities were offered and sold under the exemption from registration set forth in Rule 506 promulgated under the Act. All of the noteholders are accredited investors and existing security holders of USA, and there was no general solicitation or advertising. In January 2004, we issued to CEOCAST, Inc. a total of 150,000 shares for services to be rendered to the Company. The offer and sale of the shares was exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Act. The Company agreed to use its best efforts to register the shares for resale under the Act. 28

BUSINESS USA Technologies, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (the "Company"), was founded in January 1992. Currently, the Company's core business is its cashless payment and control network. The equipment component of the network consists of the Company's client devices, e-Port and TransAct, and any associated equipment such as copiers, computers or vending machines. When sold to hotels, the TransAct plus office equipment is called the Business Express(R). The e-Port or TransAct client device allows a consumer to use a credit card to make a purchase from host equipment such as copiers, computers or vending machines and gathers information about sales and operations of the host equipment. The e-Port client products currently are targeted to the vending industry. USA Technologies has historically generated some revenues from the direct sale of this equipment. A second source of revenues is generated from product sales from our Kodak vending machines. In addition, transaction processing revenue is recognized upon the usage of the Company's cashless payment and control network. Service fees for access to the Company's equipment and network services are recognized on a monthly basis. The Company's network brings additional benefits to the auditing and financial services the Company provides its customers. The auditing feature of our e-Port and TransAct client products, captures supply chain data (i.e. units sold, product sold, price of units sold) and other machine diagnostic information, and transmits this information back to either a customer's network or to the USA network for reporting. The Company provides financial services consisting of turnkey processing of unattended cashless transactions; 24x7x365 helpdesk support for customer refunds and troubleshooting and the reporting of sales and inventory data. This service generates monthly network fees, plus transaction processing fees from the retention of a portion of the monies generated from all credit card transactions conducted through its cashless payment and control network. Our cashless payment and control network operates as follows: - The consumer swipes a credit card through the e-Port or TransAct. - The e-Port or TransAct transmits the request to the credit card processor. - The e-Port or TransAct activates the equipment for use by the consumer. - Once the consumer finishes using the e-Port or TransAct, the control system transmits a record of the transaction to the credit card processor. - The credit card processor electronically transfers the proceeds derived from the transaction, less the credit card processor's charge (i.e. transaction fees), to us. - Finally, we forward money (check or electronic) to each customer representing its share of the proceeds. 29

CASHLESS PAYMENT PROCESSING Each of the Company's cashless control systems records and transmits all transaction data to the Company, which then forwards it to the credit card processor and related system involving the banks and the credit card companies such as Visa, MasterCard and American Express. Based on the transaction data, the payment for services rendered or product purchased is then electronically transferred to the Company's bank (less various financial charges). The Company then forwards to the location it's agreed upon share of the funds, through check or EFT. In hospitality, if the Company has sold the business center equipment to the location, the portion retained by the Company is generally 5% of the gross revenues. In cases where the Company continues to own the equipment, the portion retained can be as high as 90% of gross revenues. In the Kodak program, charges for product have been negotiated to give Stitch a reasonable margin. In addition the Company charges a fixed monthly management fee which is generally $20-$25 per control system for existing hospitality locations. PRODUCT LINES 30

THE E-PORT FOR VENDING In general, our vending service enables: - cashless transactions including credit cards, smart cards, student Ids, PDAs and cell phones; - real-time access to monitor inventory, sales, audit (cash and credit) and machine maintenance via the Internet from any PC; - the potential of an added revenue stream with a LCD color touch screen for displaying interactive advertising and content on our multi-media e-Port client product. The e-Port allows a consumer to use a credit card or other forms of cashless payment to make a purchase, and also gathers information about sales and operations of the host equipment. Additional capabilities can include Internet connectivity and wireless communications. With some additional effort, our multi-media e-Port client product could offer the capability for public access electronic commerce and advertising. The multi-media e-Port client device has had limited market acceptance to date. For the years ended June 30, 2003, June 30 2002, and the nine months ended March 31, 2004 the Company has expensed approximately $1,505,000, $1,187,000, and $474,000, respectively for the development of its proprietary technology. These amounts include the expense of outside consultants and contractors as well as compensation paid to certain of the Company's employees and is reflected in compensation and general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Through March 31, 2003 the Company capitalized approximately $5.3 million for the services of IBM, to program the enhancements to the Company's proprietary "USAlive" server network and for the development of the e-Port client product containing multi-media capabilities. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, the multi-media e-Port product and the enhanced network became available for general release and thus began marketing it to the Company's customers. Management performed an evaluation of the commercial success and preliminary market acceptance of the multi-media e-Port client product and the enhanced network and as a result of this evaluation, due mainly to the limited market acceptance of the multi-media e-Port(TR) client product, the Company determined that the estimated future revenues less costs to complete and dispose of the multi-media e-Port (TM) client product was zero. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $2.7 million of software development costs related to the multi-media e-Port client product reflecting the software development costs at its net realizable value. The Company continues to market the multi-media e-Port client product, and to date, revenues generated from its sale have been insignificant. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. With the acquisition of Stitch Networks, the Company has acquired vending business with Eastman Kodak. This consists of locating specially designed Kodak vending machines in high profile venues across the United States such as amusement parks, zoos, and sports stadiums. The vending machines dispense disposable cameras and associated film. This agreement will terminate December 31, 2003, and after this date we will continue to receive on going revenues from the approximately 286 placements in service. As discussed in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, the Kodak agreement was terminated effective December 31, 2003. THE BUSINESS EXPRESS (R) FOR HOTELS The hotel/motel hospitality industry has become more competitive as chains increase efforts to attract the most profitable customer: the business traveler or conference attendee, who accounts for the majority of hotel occupancy, stays longer and spends more per visit than the leisure traveler. For these reasons, hotels have become responsive to the needs of the business traveler. The Business Express enables a hotel to address some of these needs, while offering the possibility of generating incremental revenue. The Business Express utilizes the Company's existing applications for computers, copiers, and facsimile equipment, and combines them into a branded product in a functional kiosk type workstation. All devices are cashless, therefore eliminating the need for an attendant normally required to provide such services. Our hotel service enables: - cashless transactions using credit cards and room cards for payment; - access to unattended 24/7 business center services for hotel guests; - access to vending machines for hotel guests with the use of their room card. E-SUDS (TM) FOR LAUNDRY 31

With the acquisition of Stitch Networks, the Company acquired additional product line enhancements. One such enhancement is our university laundry services, which enable: - students to go on-line and check the availability of laundry machines and receive email or a page when their laundry cycles are complete; - students to charge the cost of their laundry to their credit card or student account; - laundry operators to access inventory, sales, audit and maintenance via the Internet from any PC; - laundry operators to benefit from additional revenue through the sale of detergent automatically added to the wash cycle. There are minimal revenues in the year ended June 30, 2003 for this product due to it currently being under development. Through the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Bayview Technology Group, LLC (Bayview) in July 2003, the Company now designs and manufactures patented energy conservation devices for equipment such as laser printers, monitors, office peripherals, refrigerated vending machines and glass front merchandisers (referred to as slide or visi coolers). These energy conservation products reduce power consumption of various types of equipment by allowing the equipment to operate in power saving mode when full power mode is not necessary. These devices, which include the VendingMiser, CoolerMiser, SnackMiser, MonitorMiser and LaserMiser can use activity, occupancy, temperature, timing or other various methods of determining which mode it should be in. Route to market for the energy conservation products is much the same as for the Company's e-Port technology, with the notable addition of governmental and utility rebate and give-away programs where part or all of the cost of the energy management products is covered by government funds available for energy conservation projects. ENERGY CONSERVATION PRODUCTS With the acquisition of Bayview in July 2003, the Company has acquired the following additional products: - VendingMiser(TM) installs in a cold drink vending machine and reduces the power consumption of the vending machine by an average of 46%; - CoolerMiser reduces the energy used by sliding glass or pull open glass-front coolers that contain non-perishable goods; - SnackMiser reduces the amount of electricity used by non-refrigerated snack vending machines; - MonitorMiser Plus is a computer monitor power controller. It works with all operating systems and performs by powering down the monitor based upon keyboard or mouse activity; - LaserMiser provides energy conservation to laser printers, shutting them down when they are idle. It is a plug-and-play device that is software transparent and capable of handling any laser printer with a parallel or serial connection; - Internal VendingMiser (IVM) is the second generation of the VendingMiser in development. It installs into cold drink vending machines and has the capability to control the cooling system and the advertising lights separately. MARKETING As of May 31, 2004, the Company was marketing and selling its products through its full time staff consisting of two people. The Company is primarily focused on the vending, hospitality, kiosk and laundry industries. 32

Within the vending industry, our e-Port (TM) client product is being purchased by soft drink bottlers and independent vending operators throughout the United States. On the soft drink bottler side, heavy effort is being put into securing initial distribution agreements with the top ten Coke and Pepsi bottlers, and Dr. Pepper. Three of the premier national independent vending operators, Compass, ARAMARK and Sodexho, have already installed e-Port (TM) in various locations. One major vending operator, International Vending Management, has signed a contract with the Company although nominal revenues have resulted to date from this contract. In March 2002, the Company signed an agreement with MEI (Mars Electronics), who agreed to sell and distribute an MEI branded cashless payment system to be developed by the Company, as part of its portfolio of vending solutions. By contract, MEI has committed to buy a minimum of 10,000 units of the USA product over the course of 24 month agreement or pay the Company $4.00 per unit for any shortfall. Commercial availability is planned for winter 2003 and through the date hereof no revenues have been generated from this arrangement. The Company continues to work with the top vending machine manufacturers (OEM) in order to incorporate our e-Port (TM) technology into newly manufactured vending machines coming off the factory assembly line. In addition, the Company continues to sell to and increase the number of authorized resellers for its products. In the hospitality industry, Business Express continues to be one of the premier solutions for automated business centers. The addition of e-Port (TM) technology for vending machines located in hotels now offers a "one-stop shopping" experience to hotels that have or are considering purchasing a USA business center. Within the laundry industry, American Sales Inc. (ASI) has signed a five-year agreement to purchase units of Stitch's e-Suds laundry solution for their university locations in the Midwest. Through the date hereof, the Company has finalized product commercialization. In June 2004, the Company realized unit sales under this contract. In October 2002, the Company signed a Strategic Alliance Agreement with ZiLOG Corporation, a semiconductor company that is a supplier of microprocessors to the retail point of sale industry. The agreement allows the Company's proprietary network software (USALive) to be embedded on a chip produced by ZiLOG. The Company would license its software to the purchaser and would receive a license fee. A second revenue stream could be generated when those who buy the retail point of sales terminals begin to use them, because they could elect to use the USA network which is embedded on the chip procurement. As of the date hereof, no products have been available for commercial use and accordingly, no revenues have been generated. The Company utilizes independent third party companies for the manufacturing of its e-Port(TM) product line. The Company purchases other components of its business center (computers, printers, fax and copy machines) through various manufacturers. Orders are regularly placed for expected orders weeks in advance. COMPETITION We are aware of three competitors who offer unattended business centers in the hospitality industry in competition with the Business Express. We believe that our products (currently located in over 400 locations) are in approximately 33
SB-2/A34th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 34th
seventy-five percent of the locations currently utilizing unattended business centers. We are aware of one competitor in regards to our e-Port control systems for use in the beverage vending industry. There are at the present time very few installations of this product. In addition, the businesses which have developed unattended, credit card activated control systems currently in use in connection with gasoline dispensing, public telephones, prepaid telephone cards, ticket dispensing machines, vending machines, or facsimile machines, might be capable of developing products or utilizing their existing products in direct competition with our e-port control systems targeted to the beverage vending industry. Many of these businesses are well established, have substantially greater resources than the Company and have established reputations for success in the development, sale and service of high quality products. Any such increased competition may result in reduced sales and/or lower percentages of gross revenues being retained by the Company in connection with its licensing arrangements, or otherwise may reduce potential profits or result in a loss of some or all of its customer base. The Company is also aware of several businesses that make available use of the Internet and use of personal computers to hotel guests in their hotel rooms. Such services might compete with the Company's Business Express, and the locations may not order the Business Express, or if ordered, the hotel guest may not use it. TRADEMARKS, PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AND PATENTS The Company received federal registration approval of the following trademarks: Business Express, Express Solutions, C3X, TransAct, Public PC, PC Express, Copy Express, Credit Card Copy Express, Credit Card Computer Express, Credit Card Printer Express, Credit Card Microfiche Express, Credit Card Debit Express, The Office That Never Sleeps, Intelligent Vending and e-Port(TM). The following trademarks are pending federal registration: USALive, Dial-A-Vend, Dial-A-Snack, Dial-A-Vend.com, e-Port The Next Generation in Vending and CineMachine. Through its wholly owned subsidiary, Stitch Networks, the Company has secured one registered trademark eVend.net and three trademarks that are pending registration: eSuds.net, E-ppliance and Stitch Networks. In addition, due to the July 2003 acquisition of Bayview, the Company has secured the VendingMiser trademark and the trademark SnackMiser is pending federal registration. Much of the technology developed or to be developed by the Company is subject to trade secret protection. To reduce the risk of loss of trade secret protection through disclosure, the Company has entered into confidentiality agreements with its key employees. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in maintaining such trade secret protection, that they will be recognized as trade secrets by a court of law, or that others will not capitalize on certain of the Company's technology.

EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS 42
SB-2/A43rd Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 43rd
The Company has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Jensen which expires June 30, 2005, and is automatically renewed from year to year thereafter unless canceled by Mr. Jensen or the Company. The agreement provides for an annual base salary of $250,000 effective January 1, 2004. Mr. Jensen is entitled to receive such bonus or bonuses as may be awarded to him by the Board of Directors. In determining whether to pay such a bonus, the Board would use its subjective discretion. The Agreement requires Mr. Jensen to devote his full time and attention to the business and affairs of the Company, and obligates him not to engage in any investments or activities which would compete with the Company during the term of the Agreement and for a period of one year thereafter. The agreement also grants to Mr. Jensen in the event a "USA Transaction" (as defined below) occurs after the date thereof an aggregate of 14,000,000 shares of Common Stock subject to adjustment for stock splits or combinations ("Jensen Shares"). Mr. Jensen is not required to pay any additional consideration for the Jensen Shares. At the time of any USA Transaction, all of the Jensen Shares are automatically deemed to be issued and outstanding immediately prior to any USA Transaction, and are entitled to be treated as any other issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock in connection with such USA Transaction. The term USA Transaction is defined as (i) the acquisition of fifty-one percent or more of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors of the Company by any person, entity or group, or (ii) the approval by the shareholders of the Company of a reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation, or dissolution of the Company, or the sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. The Jensen Shares are irrevocable and fully vested, have no expiration date, and will not be affected by the termination of Mr. Jensen`s employment with the Company for any reason whatsoever. If a USA Transaction shall occur at a time when there are not a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, then the Company shall as a condition of such USA Transaction promptly take any and all appropriate action to make available a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock. In the alternative, the Company may structure the USA Transaction so that Mr. Jensen would receive the same amount and type of consideration in connection with the USA Transaction as any other holder of Common Stock. The Company has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Herbert, which expires on June 30, 2005, and is automatically renewed from year to year thereafter unless canceled by Mr. Herbert or the Company. The Agreement provides for an annual base salary of $230,000 per year effective January 1, 2004. Mr. Herbert is entitled to receive such bonus or bonuses as the Board of Directors may award to him. The Agreement requires Mr. Herbert to devote his full time and attention to the business and affairs of the Company and obligates him not to engage in any investments or activities which would compete with the Company during the term of the agreement and for a period of one year thereafter. In the event that a USA Transaction (as defined in Mr. Jensen's employment agreement) shall occur, then Mr. Herbert has the right to terminate his agreement upon 30 days notice to USA. Mr. Kolls has entered into an employment agreement with the Company, which expires on June 30, 2005, and is automatically renewed from year to year thereafter unless canceled by Mr. Kolls or the Company.

attention to the business and affairs of the Company, and obligates him not to engage in any investments or activities which would compete with the Company during the term of his agreement and for a period of one year thereafter. In the event that a USA Transaction (as defined in Mr. Jensen's employment agreement) shall occur, then Mr. Kolls has the right to terminate his agreement upon 30 days notice to USA. Ms. Hepburn has entered into an employment agreement with the Company, which expires on June 30, 2005, and is automatically renewed from year to year thereafter unless canceled by Ms. Hepburn or the Company. The agreement provides for an annual base salary of $130,000 per year effective January 1, 2004. Ms. Hepburn is also entitled to receive such bonus or bonuses as the Board of Directors may award to her.

Ms. Young has entered into an employment agreement with the Company which expires on April 30, 2005, and is automatically renewed from year to year thereafter unless canceled by Ms. Young or the Company. The agreement provides for a base annual salary of $165,000 and a discretionary performance based bonus of up to 35% of her base salary. Ms. Young also received a $30,000 payment that she used to purchase from the Company 200,000 shares of restricted Common Stock at $.15 per share. Ms. Young was also granted options to purchase up to 300,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company at $.30 per share. The options vest ratably over a two-year period and are exercisable at any time during the two-year period following vesting. The agreement requires Ms. Young to devote her full-time and attention to the business and affairs of the Company, and obligates her not to engage in any investments or activities which would compete with the Company during the term of her agreement and for a period of one year thereafter. COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS Members of the Board of Directors receive cash and equity compensation for serving on the Board of Directors. In April 2002, the Company granted to each of the five outside Directors (Messrs. Sellers, Van Alen, Katz, Lurio, and Boynton) options to purchase up to 100,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.40 per share as compensation for serving the one-year term, which commenced March 21, 2002. The options are fully vested and are exercisable at any time prior to April 12, 2005. Commencing on July 1, 2002 and at any and all times through June 30, 2003, each Director has been granted the right, without the payment of the per share exercise price of such options, to receive up to 50,000 shares represented by those options. In September 2002, Edwin P. Boynton elected to receive 50,000 shares in lieu of the above options. In February 2001, the Company granted a total of 300,000 options to purchase Common Stock at $1.00 per share to each of the then outside members of the Board (Messrs. Sellers, Van Alen, Smith, Katz, Lurio, and Boynton). Of these, 120,000 options vested immediately; 90,000 options vested on June 30, 2001; and 90,000 vested on June 30, 2002. The options are exercisable at any time within five years following the vesting. On December 31, 2002, each of Messrs. Sellers, Van Alen, Katz, Lurio, and Boynton voluntarily canceled all of the outstanding options then held by them. During June 2003, we paid $50,000 to each of Messrs. Sellers, Van Alen, and Katz for their services as Directors during the 2003 fiscal year. As a condition of the cash payment, each of these Directors agreed to purchase from the Company 500,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.10 per share. During June 2004, we paid $30,000 to each of Messrs. Sellers and Van Alen for their services as Chairs of the Compensation Committee and the Audit Committee, respectively, rendered during the two prior fiscal years.

Pursuant thereto, the number of shares of Common Stock of USA issuable to Mr. Jensen by USA upon the occurrence of a "USA Transaction" (as such term is defined in his employment agreement) was fixed at 14,000,000 shares rather than 48
SB-2/A49th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 49th
seven percent of the then issued and outstanding shares as previously provided. USA also agreed to issue to Mr. Jensen an aggregate of 10,500,000 shares of restricted Common Stock, 2,500,000 shares of which will be issued as compensation to Mr. Jensen for future services, and 8,000,000 shares of which will be issued to Mr. Jensen in connection with the employment agreement amendment.

The issuance of the common stock to the selling shareholders as well as the issuance of the common stock to the selling shareholders upon exercise of the warrants was or will be a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Act and various state securities laws. We have agreed, at our expense, to register all of the common stock for resale by the selling shareholders under the Act. We expect to incur expenses of approximately $30,000 in connection with the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The number of shares that may be actually sold by the selling shareholder will be determined by the selling shareholder. The selling shareholders are under no obligation to sell all or any portion of the shares offered, nor are the selling shareholders obligated to sell such shares immediately under this Prospectus. Particular selling shareholders may not have a preset intention of selling their shares and may offer less than the number of shares indicated. Because the selling shareholder may sell all, some or none of the shares of common stock that the selling shareholder holds, no estimate can be given as to the number of shares of our common stock that will be held by the selling shareholder upon termination of the offering. Shares of common stock may be sold from time to time by the selling shareholders or by pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest. The following tables set forth information with respect to each selling shareholder and the respective amounts of common stock that may be offered pursuant to this prospectus. None of the selling shareholders has, or within the past three years has had, any position, office or other material relationship with us, except as noted below. Except as specifically set forth below, following the offering, and assuming all of the common stock offered hereby has been sold, none of the selling shareholders will beneficially own one percent (1%) or more of the common stock. 49

Through the date hereof, no cash dividends have been declared on the Company's securities. No dividend may be paid on the Common Stock until all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock have been paid.

During fiscal year 2003, certain holders of the Company's Preferred Stock converted 4,790 shares into 4,790 shares of Common Stock. Certain of these shareholders also converted cumulative preferred dividends of $56,050 into 5,605 shares of Common Stock. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES General We are authorized to issue up to 475,000,000 shares of common stock, no par value, and 1,800,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock.

Common Stock The holder of each share of common stock: o is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders of USA, including the election of directors. There is no cumulative voting for directors; o does not have any preemptive rights to subscribe for or purchase shares, obligations, warrants, or other securities of USA; and o is entitled to receive such dividends as the Board of Directors may from time to time declare out of funds legally available for payment of dividends. No dividend may be paid on the common stock until all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the series A preferred stock have been paid. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of USA, holders of shares of common stock are entitled to receive pro rata all of the assets of USA available for distribution, subject to the liquidation preference of the series A preferred stock of $10.00 per share and any unpaid and accumulated dividends on the series A preferred stock. 58
SB-2/A59th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 59th
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock The holders of shares of Series A preferred stock: o have the number of votes per share equal to the number of shares of common stock into which each such share is convertible (i.e., 1 share of series A preferred stock equals 1 vote); o are entitled to vote on all matters submitted to the vote of the shareholders of USA, including the election of directors; and o are entitled to an annual cumulative cash dividend of $1.50 per annum, payable when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors. The record dates for payment of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are February 1 and August 1 of each year. Any and all accumulated and unpaid cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock must be declared and paid prior to the declaration and payment of any dividends on the Common Stock. Any unpaid and accumulated dividends will not bear interest. As of May 31, 2004 the accumulated and unpaid dividends were $6,677,180. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at any time into 1 share of fully issued and non-assessable Common Stock. Accrued and unpaid dividends earned on shares of Series A Preferred Stock being converted into Common Stock are also convertible into Common Stock at the rate $10.00 per share of Common Stock at the time of conversion and whether or not such dividends have then been declared by USA. As of May 31, 2004 a total of 588,408 shares of series A Preferred Stock have been converted into common stock and accrued and unpaid dividends thereon have been converted into 288,521 shares of Common Stock. The conversion rate of the Series A Preferred Stock (and any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon) will be equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock combinations, recapitalizations, and in connection with certain other issuances of common stock by USA. Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of USA, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive a distribution in preference to the Common Stock in the amount of $10.00 per share plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends. We have the right, at any time, to redeem all or any part of the issued and outstanding series A preferred stock for the sum of $11.00 per share plus any and all unpaid and accumulated dividends thereon. Upon notice by USA of such call, the holders of the series A preferred stock so called will have the opportunity to convert their shares and any unpaid and accumulated dividends thereon into shares of common stock. The $11.00 per share figure was the redemption price approved by the Directors and shareholders of USA at the time the series A preferred stock was created and first issued. We currently have no plans to redeem the preferred stock. 12% Senior Notes As of May 31, 2004, we had outstanding $3,404,490 of Senior Notes due December 31, 2007, $3,213,500 of Senior Notes due December 31, 2006, $3,011,791 of Senior Notes due December 31, 2005 and $451,152 of Senior Notes due December 31, 2004.

The senior notes are senior to all existing equity securities of USA, including the series A preferred stock. 59

The indebtedness evidenced in the Senior Note is subordinated to the prior payment when due of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all "Senior Indebtedness", as defined herein, of USA as follows: Upon any distribution of its assets in a liquidation or dissolution of USA, or in bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceedings relating to USA, the Lender shall not be entitled to receive payment until the holders of Senior Indebtedness are paid in full. Until a payment default occurs with respect to any Senior Indebtedness, all payments of principal and interest due to Lender under the senior note shall be made in accordance with this senior note. Upon the occurrence of any payment default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness then, upon written notice thereof to USA and Lender by any holder of such Senior Indebtedness or its representative, no payments of principal or interest on the senior note shall be made by USA until such payment default has been cured to the satisfaction of the holder of such Senior Indebtedness or waived by such holder, provided, however, that if during the 180 day period following such default, the holder of Senior Indebtedness has not accelerated its loan, commenced foreclosure proceedings or otherwise undertaken to act on such default, then USA shall be required to continue making payments under the senior note, including any which had not been paid during such 180 day period. In the event that any institutional lender to USA at any time so requires, the Lender shall execute, upon request of USA, any intercreditor or subordination agreement(s) with any such institutional lender on terms not materially more adverse to the Lender then the subordination terms contained in this senior note. The term "Senior Indebtedness" shall mean (a) all direct or indirect, contingent or certain indebtedness of any type, kind or nature (present or future) created, incurred or assumed by USA with respect to any future bank or other financial institutional indebtedness of USA or (b) any indebtedness created, incurred, or assumed, by USA secured by a lien on any of our assets. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Senior Indebtedness does not include: o unsecured accounts payable to trade creditors of USA incurred in the ordinary course of business; o any debt owed by USA to any officer, director or stockholder of USA; o any obligation of Borrower issued or contracted for as payment in consideration of the purchase by USA of the capital stock or substantially all of the assets of another person or in consideration for the merger or consolidation with respect to which USA was a party; o any operating lease obligations of USA; o any other indebtedness which by its terms is subordinated to the senior note; or o any "other indebtedness" which is subordinated to all indebtedness to which the senior note is subordinated in substantially like terms as the senior note; which such "other indebtedness" shall be treated as equal with the indebtedness evidenced by the senior note.

Shares Eligible for Future Sale Of the 339,453,012 shares of common stock issued and outstanding on May 31, 2004, a total of approximately 31,771,925 are restricted securities which are not currently eligible for sale under Rule 144 promulgated under the Act. As of May 31, 2004, there were 522,742 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding, all of which are freely transferable without further registration under the Act (other than shares held by "affiliates" of USA). The shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding as of the date hereof are convertible into 522,742 shares of common stock all of which would be fully transferable without further registration under the Act (other than shares held by "affiliates" of USA). Shares of our common stock which are not freely tradeable under the Act are known as "restricted securities" and cannot be resold without registration under the Act or pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated thereunder. In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons whose shares are required to be aggregated), including any affiliate of USA, who beneficially owns "restricted securities" for a period of at least one year is entitled to sell within any three-month period, shares equal in number to the greater of (i) 1% of the then outstanding shares of the same class of shares, or (ii) the average weekly trading volume of the same class of shares during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of the required notice of sale with the SEC. The seller must also comply with the notice and manner of sale requirements of Rule 144, and there must be current public information available about USA. In addition, any person (or persons whose shares must be aggregated) who is not, at the time of sale, nor during the preceding three months, an affiliate of the USA, and who has beneficially owned restricted shares for at least two years, can sell such shares under Rule 144 without regard to the notice, manner of sale, public information or the volume limitations described above. Limitation of Liability; Indemnification 63
SB-2/A64th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 64th
As permitted by the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law of 1988 ("BCL"), our By-laws provide that Directors will not be personally liable, as such, for monetary damages for any action taken unless the Director has breached or failed to perform the duties of a Director under the BCL and the breach or failure to perform constitutes self-dealing, willful misconduct or recklessness. This limitation of personal liability does not apply to any responsibility or liability pursuant to any criminal statute, or any liability for the payment of taxes pursuant to Federal, State or local law. The By-laws also include provisions for indemnification of our Directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the BCL. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be permitted to Directors, officers and controlling persons of USA pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. Transfer Agent and Registrar The Transfer Agent and Registrar for our stock and warrants is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 40 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION The selling shareholders are free to offer and sell the common shares at such times, in such manner and at such prices as the selling shareholders may determine. The types of transactions in which the common shares are sold may include transactions in the over-the-counter market (including block transactions), negotiated transactions, the settlement of short sales of common shares, or a combination of such methods of sale. The sales will be at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. Such transactions may or may not involve brokers or dealers. The selling shareholders may effect such transactions by selling common stock directly to purchasers or through broker-dealers, which may act as agents or principals. Such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, or commissions from the selling shareholders. They may also receive compensation from the purchasers of common shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions). The selling shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may also be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts under the Act. The selling shareholders also may resell all or a portion of the common shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Act, provided they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of such Rule. We have agreed to bear all the expenses (other than selling commissions) in connection with the registration and sale of the common stock covered by this prospectus. In some circumstances, we have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders against certain losses and liabilities, including liabilities under the Act. We have advised the selling shareholders that while they are engaged in a distribution of the shares included in this prospectus they are required to comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the selling shareholders, any affiliated purchasers, and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in such distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. 64

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm USA Technologies, Inc. Board of Directors and Shareholders We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of USA Technologies, Inc. as of June 30, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits 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 consolidated financial position of USA Technologies, Inc. at June 30, 2003 and 2002, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2003, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming USA Technologies, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring operating losses and has a working capital deficiency at June 30, 2003. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Philadelphia, Pennsylvania September 12, 2003, except for Note 17, as to which the date is September 30, 2003 F-1

USA Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2003 1. Business USA Technologies, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (the Company), was incorporated on January 16, 1992. The Company provides unattended cashless payment/control systems and associated network and services for the copy, fax, debit card, smart card personal computer, laundry, and vending industries. The Company's devices make available credit and debit card and other payment methods in connection with the sale of a variety of products and services. The Company's customers are principally located in the United States and are comprised of hotels, chains, consumer package goods companies, information technology and vending operators. The Company offers the Business Express(R) and Business Express(R) Limited Service (LSS) principally to the hospitality industry. The Business Express(R) and Business Express(R) Limited Service (LSS) combines the Company's business applications for computers, copiers and facsimile machines into a business center unit. The Company has developed its next generation of cashless control/payment systems (e-Port(TM)), which includes capabilities for interactive multimedia and e-commerce, acceptance of other forms of electronic payments and remote monitoring of host machine data and is being marketed and sold to operators, distributors and original equipment manufacturers (OEM) primarily in the vending industry. 2. Accounting Policies Basis of Financial Statement Presentation The financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include any adjustments to recorded asset values that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence. The Company has incurred recurring operating losses of $22 million and $17.3 million during each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and a loss of $16.4 million (unaudited) during the nine months ended March 31, 2004. Cumulative losses from its inception through June 30, 2003 amount to approximately $75.2 million and the Company had a working capital deficiency at June 30, 2003. Cumulative losses through March 31, 2004 amounted to approximately $91.6 million (unaudited). Losses have continued through March 2004 and are expected to continue during fiscal year 2004. The Company's ability to meet its future obligations is dependent upon the success of its products in the marketplace. Until the Company's products can generate sufficient operating revenues, the Company will be required to raise capital to meet its cash flow requirements. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability F-8

Interim Financial Information The consolidated financial statements and disclosures included herein for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 are unaudited.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine month period ended March 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2004. Restatement The Company restated the June 30, 2002 balance sheet, statement of shareholders' equity and statement of cash flows to correct the valuation of the marketable equity securities issued in connection with the Company's May 2002 acquisition of Stitch Corporation (Note 4) in accordance with EITF 99-12: "Determination of the Measurement Date for the Market Price of Acquirer Securities Issued in a Purchase Business Combination". The Company originally valued the marketable securities issued in connection with this acquisition at the market price a few days before and a few days after May 14, 2002, which was the date the Company's shareholders approved the increase in the Company's Common Stock to allow for this transaction to close. The restated June 30, 2002 balance sheet, statement of shareholders' equity and statement of cash flows reflect the marketable securities issued in connection with this transaction at the market price a few days before and a few days after April 10, 2002, the date the definitive agreement was signed. The restated June 30, 2002 consolidated financial statements reflect an increase in Goodwill from $6,800,827 to $7,945,580 and an increase in Common Stock from $55,443,750 to $56,588,503. The restatement did not impact the net loss or loss per common share reported during 2002 or 2003. Reclassification Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Stitch. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. F-9

USA Technologies Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 2. Accounting Policies (continued) Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents represent all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are comprised of a money market fund and certificates of deposit. Inventory Inventory, which principally consists of finished goods, components, and packaging materials, is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market. Property and Equipment Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Property and equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the asset or the respective lease term. Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of the net assets acquired in acquisitions. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (SFAS No. 142), "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," on July 1, 2002. Under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill is no longer permitted to be amortized to earnings, but instead is subject to periodic testing for impairment. The Company tests goodwill for impairment using the two-step process prescribed by SFAS No. 142. The first step screens for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of impairment, if any. The Company uses a discounted cash flow analysis to complete the first step in this process. The Company completed the transitional test of goodwill as of July 1, 2002, as prescribed in SFAS No. 142, during the quarter ended December 31, 2002. The Company concluded that there were no goodwill impairment indicators as a result of the transitional test. The Company also performed an annual impairment test of goodwill as of April 1, 2003 and concluded there was no goodwill impairment. During the nine months ended March 31, 2004, no events or circumstances arose indicating an impairment of goodwill may have occurred. F-10

2. Accounting Policies (continued) Goodwill and Intangible Assets (continued) Intangible assets as of June 30, 2003 and 2002 include patents and trademarks acquired in the Stitch acquisition. The aggregate amortization expense was $292,000 and $36,500 during the years ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Intangible assets as of March 31, 2004 also include patents, trademarks and a non-compete agreement acquired in the Bayview acquisition (Note 17). Aggregate amortization expense was $899,518 (unaudited) for the nine months ended March 31, 2004. The intangible asset balance and related accumulated amortization consists of the following: [Enlarge/Download Table] June 30, 2003 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gross Carrying Accumulated Net Carrying Amount Amortization Value ------------------------ -------------------------- ----------------------- Amortized intangible assets Trademark $ 1,050,000 $ (118,125) $ 931,875 Patents 1,870,000 (210,375) 1,659,625 -------------------- ------------------- ------------------- Total $ 2,920,000 $ (328,500) $ 2,591,500 ==================== =================== =================== June 30, 2002 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gross Carrying Accumulated Net Carrying Amount Amortization Value ------------------------ -------------------------- ----------------------- Amortized intangible assets Trademark $ 1,050,000 $ (13,125) $ 1,036,875 Patents 1,870,000 (23,375) 1,846,625 -------------------- ------------------- ------------------- Total $ 2,920,000 $ (36,500) $ 2,883,500 ==================== =================== =================== [Enlarge/Download Table] March 31, 2004 (unaudited) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gross Carrying Accumulated Net Carrying Amount Amortization Value ------------------------ -------------------------- ----------------------- Intangible assets Trademarks $ 2,064,000 $ (196,875) $ 1,867,125 Patents 9,294,000 (885,472) 8,408,528 Non-Compete Agreement 1,011,000 (145,671) 865,329 -------------------- ------------------- ------------------- Total $ 12,369,000 $ (1,228,018) $ 11,140,982 ==================== =================== =================== At June 30, 2003, the expected amortization of the intangible assets is as follows: $292,000 per year in fiscal year 2004 through fiscal year 2011, and $255,500 in fiscal year 2012. Considering the Bayview acquisition in July 2003, approximate amortization (unaudited) of intangible assets is expected to be as follows: $1,200,000 per year in fiscal year 2004 through fiscal year 2008, $1,000,000 per year in fiscal year 2009 through fiscal year 2012, $740,000 in fiscal year 2013 and $22,000 in fiscal year 2014. The weighted average useful life of these intangibles is 10 years at June 30, 2003 and 9.55 (unaudited) years at March 31, 2004. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of those financial institutions, and the Company's policy is designed to limit exposure to any one institution. The Company's accounts receivable is net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts. The Company does not require collateral or other security to support credit sales, but provides an allowance for uncollectible accounts based on historical experience and specifically identified risks. Accounts receivable are determined to be carried at fair value and charged off against the allowance for uncollectible accounts when management determines that recovery is unlikely and the company ceases collection efforts. Approximately 57% and 41% of the Company's accounts receivable at June 30, 2003 and 2002, and 35% and 12% of the Company's revenues for the years ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, are concentrated with two customers.

USA Technologies Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 2. Accounting Policies (continued) Revenue Recognition Revenue from the sale of equipment is recognized on the terms of freight-on-board shipping point, or upon installation and acceptance of the equipment if installation services are purchased for the related equipment. Transaction processing revenue is recognized upon the usage of the Company's cashless payment and control network. Service fees for access to the Company's equipment and network services are recognized on a monthly basis. Product revenues are recognized from the sale of products from Company owned vending machines when there is purchase and acceptance of product by the vending customer. Customers have the ability to return vending products for a full refund. The Company estimates an allowance of product returns at the date of sale. Investment The Company accounts for investments in debt and equity securities under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, (SFAS No. 115), "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". Management determines the appropriate classifications of securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses reported in a separate component of shareholders' equity in other comprehensive income (loss). If the investment sustains an other than temporary decline in fair value, the investment is written down to its fair value by a charge to earnings. Software Development Costs The Company capitalizes software development costs pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86 (SFAS No. 86), "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed", after technological feasibility of the software is established and through the product's availability for general release to the Company's customers. All costs incurred in the research and development of new software and costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are expensed as incurred. Amortization of software development costs commences when the product becomes available for general release to customers. Amortization of software development costs is calculated as the greater of the amount computed using (i) the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues of that product or (ii) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product. The Company reviews the unamortized software development costs at each balance sheet date and, if necessary, will write down the balance to net realizable value if the unamortized costs exceed the net realizable value of the asset. During May 2000, the Company reached technological feasibility for the development of the multi-media e-Port client product and related enhanced network and, accordingly, the Company commenced capitalization of software development costs related to F-12
SB-2/A79th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 79th
USA Technologies Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 2. Accounting Policies (continued) Software Development Costs (continued) this product and network. Costs capitalized through 2002 were $5.3 million, which included capitalized interest of approximately $493,000, pursuant to SFAS No. 34, "Capitalization of Interest Costs". During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, the multi-media e-Port(TM) client product and enhanced network became available for general release to the Company's customers. The multimedia e-port(TM) client product is equipped with both the audit and cashless payment features, but also includes the capability of displaying interactive advertising and content via a LCD screen. During this quarter, Management performed an evaluation of the commercial success and preliminary market acceptance of the multi-media e-Port(TM) client product and enhanced network and as a result of this evaluation the Company determined that the estimated future revenues less costs to complete and dispose of the multi-media e-Port client product was zero. Therefore, the Company wrote down $2,663,000 of software development costs related to the multi-media e-Port client product. The unamortized balance of the software development costs after the impairment charge is being amortized over an estimated useful life of two years. Amortization expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 was $998,660 (unaudited). Amortization expense was approximately $1,331,000 during the year ended June 30, 2003 and $2,996,000 during the year ended June 30, 2002 (including the above impairment adjustment of $2,663,000). Such amortization is reflected in cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses reported in the consolidated balance sheets equal or approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The fair value of the Company's Senior Notes, Debenture, and other Long-Term Debt approximates book value as such notes are at market rates currently available to the Company. Impairment of Long Lived Assets The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (SFAS No. 144), "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" on July 1, 2002. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the Company reviews its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003, the Company reviewed certain long-lived assets (vending machines) and determined that such assets were impaired. These vending machines were used and intended for use in connection with the Company's Kodak Program to sell disposable cameras and film. Management determined that it was more likely than not that these vending machines would be disposed of before the end of their previously estimated useful lives. The estimated undiscounted cash flows for this group of assets was less than the carrying value of the related assets. As a result, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $321,000 representing the difference between the fair value as determined from a quoted market price and the carrying value of the group of assets. Such amount is reflected in depreciation expense in the 2003 consolidated statement of operations. F-13

USA Technologies Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 2. Accounting Policies (continued) Advertising Expenses Advertising expenses for the years ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were approximately $72,000 and $429,000, respectively and were expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 were approximately $36,000 (unaudited) and $37,000 (unaudited), respectively. Research and Development Expenses Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses, which are included in general and administrative and compensation expense in the consolidated statements of operations, were $1,505,000 and $1,187,000 for the years ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively and $474,000 (unaudited) and $1,274,000 (unaudited) for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Accounting for Stock Options Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS No.123), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", provides companies with a choice to follow the provisions of SFAS No. 123 in determination of stock-based compensation expense or to continue with the provisions of APB No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and Related Interpretations in Accounting for Stock-Compensation Plans" and the related FASB Interpretation No. 44. The Company has elected to follow the provisions of APB 25. Under APB 25, if the exercise price of the Company's stock options equals or exceeds the market price of the underlying Common Stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. The effect of applying SFAS No. 123 to the Company's stock-based awards results in the same net loss and net loss per common share for the year ended June 30, 2003 and for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 on a pro-forma basis under SFAS No. 123 and under APB 25. The effect of applying SFAS No. 123 to the Company's stock-based awards resulted in a net loss and net loss per common share for the year ended June 30, 2002 as follows: Net loss applicable to common shares as reported under APB 25 $(18,137,368) Stock option expense per SFAS 123 (985,046) ------------ Pro forma net loss $(19,122,414) ============ Loss per common share as reported $ (0.50) ============ Pro forma net loss per common share $ (0.53) ============ The fair value for the Company's stock options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for fiscal year 2002: an expected life of 2 years; no expected cash dividend payments on Common Stock, and a risk-free interest rate of 4.5% to 5.5%, and volatility factors of the expected market price of the Company's Common Stock, based on historical volatility of .85 to .95 for fiscal 2002.

USA Technologies Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 2. Accounting Policies (continued) Accounting for Stock Options (continued) The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. As noted above, the Company's stock options are vested over an extended period. In addition, option models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including future stock price volatility. Because the Company's stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates, in management's opinion, the Black-Scholes model does not necessarily provide a reliable measure of the fair value of the Company's stock options. The Company's pro forma information reflects the impact of the reduction in price of certain stock options. The pro forma results above are not necessarily reflective of the effects of applying SFAS 123 in future periods. Loss Per Common Share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) applicable to common shares by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) applicable to common shares by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect (unless such effect is anti-dilutive) of equity instruments. No exercise of stock options, purchase rights, stock purchase warrants, or the conversion of preferred stock, cumulative preferred dividends or Senior Notes was assumed during fiscal year 2003 or 2002 or the nine months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, because the assumed exercise of these securities would be antidilutive. New Accounting Pronouncements In December 2002, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 (SFAS No. 148), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123" (SFAS No. 123) was issued. SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provided 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 Company has provided the prescribed disclosure format required by SFAS No. 148 during the year ended June 30, 2003. 3. Investment in Jubilee Investment Trust During February 2003, the Company issued 15,000,000 shares of its Common Stock ($2,850,000) for an investment of 1,870,091 shares in the Jubilee Investment Trust, PLC ("Jubilee"), a United Kingdom Investment Trust whose shares trade on the London Stock F-15

USA Technologies Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 3. Investment in Jubilee Investment Trust (continued) Exchange. The Company agreed not to sell the Jubilee shares for a period of 90 days from January 24, 2003 and to sell a maximum of 10% of the Jubilee shares during each month thereafter. Jubilee has agreed not to sell the Company's shares of Common Stock for a period of two years from the date of issuance unless agreed to by the Company. As the investment declined in value below its cost basis for a period of six months or more, the Company determined that the decline in the market value of this available for sale investment was "other than temporary" and, accordingly, the Company wrote down the investment to its fair value as of June 30, 2003 realizing an impairment loss of $1,945,951. 4. Acquisition of Stitch Networks Corporation On May 14, 2002, USA Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company acquired Stitch pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among the Company, USA Acquisition Corp., Stitch and the stockholders of Stitch. Additionally, on May 14, 2002, the Company's shareholders voted to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to 150,000,000. The Company acquired Stitch to strengthen its position as a leading provider of wireless remote monitoring and cashless and mobile commerce solutions and to increase the Company's revenue base. These revenues would include product revenues and monthly service and transaction fees. Additionally, the acquisition of the Stitch technology enhanced the Company's existing technology and complemented the revenue and transaction processing revenue of the Company's existing products. Certain Stitch personnel were believed to possess some key strengths in several disciplines that the Company believed to be of great value in its plans for growth. Stitch became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company effective May 14, 2002. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly, the results of the operations of Stitch have been included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations since the acquisition date. The purchase price consisted of the issuance of 22,762,341 shares of the Company's Common Stock in exchange for the outstanding shares of Stitch, and the issuance of warrants to purchase up to 7,587,447 shares of the Company's Common Stock at $.40 per share at any time through June 30, 2002. The purchase price also included the assumption of outstanding Stitch stock options that were converted into options to purchase an aggregate of 2,475,318 shares of the Company's Common Stock at $.165 per share at any time prior to May 14, 2007, warrants to purchase up to 412,553 shares of the Company's Common Stock at $.40 per share at any time through June 30, 2002 and other acquisition related expenses. None of the warrants issued in connection with the acquisition were exercised as of June 30, 2003. A total of 4,800,000 shares of the Common Stock issued to the former stockholders of Stitch are held in escrow to secure the former stockholder's indemnification obligations under the Agreement and Plan of Merger. Such shares are subject to cancellation if there is a breach of the indemnification (as defined). The value of the marketable equity securities issued in connection with this acquisition was determined based on the average market price of the Company's Common Stock over a two-day period before and after April 10, 2002, the date the definitive agreement to acquire Stitch was entered into. Such valuation was in accordance with F-16

USA Technologies Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 4. Acquisition of Stitch Networks Corporation (continued) EITF 99-12: "Determination of the Measurement Date for the Market Price of Acquirer Securities Issued in a Purchase Business Combination". The Company's vending machines for the Kodak Program are purchased from Dixie-Narco (Dixie) and the film and cameras are purchased directly from Eastman Kodak Company. Product revenues through the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003 were approximately $445,000. In May 2003, Stitch notified Maytag and Dixie-Narco that they had breached the Kodak Agreement because Maytag had failed to create and maintain during the term of the Kodak Agreement a customer focus team and Dixie had failed to service, place and pick up the machines as required in the Kodak Agreement. In June 2003, Maytag and Dixie-Narco indicated to Stitch that they were not in breach of the Kodak Agreement and that Stitch had breached the Agreement by failing to pay certain payments due thereunder. Maytag and Dixie indicated that the customer focus team was terminated due to Stitch's breach of the Kodak Agreement by failing to pay fees due thereunder and Stitch's not taking delivery of vending machines ordered from Dixie. The parties have been negotiating a resolution of this matter although no settlement has been finalized. The Company believes that any settlement would involve the termination of the Kodak Agreement. In such event, although related revenues would be reduced, because the Kodak program is and has been operating at a loss, the termination of the program would eliminate these losses. The Company also believes that any settlement would involve the payment of the amount due by Stitch to U.S. Bancorp by the other parties to the Kodak Agreement and the forgiveness of the payments due by Stitch to Dixie of approximately $124,000 (Note 18). During June 2002, the Company determined that it would vacate the office space previously occupied by Stitch. Accordingly, the Company accrued the remaining lease exit costs relating to this property in the amount of approximately $354,000 as part of the cost of Stitch. While the Company is attempting to sublease this space, no provision for recovery was estimated. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation of the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition: Current assets $ 2,710,000 Property and equipment 1,700,000 Goodwill 7,946,000 Intangibles 2,920,000 Current liabilities (1,554,000) Long-term debt (Note 9) (3,976,000) ----------- $ 9,746,000 =========== Unaudited pro-forma combined results of the Company as if the Company acquired Stitch on July 1, 2001 is as follows: Year ended June 30 2002 ------------ Revenues $ 2,869,466 ============ Net loss (19,583,216) Cumulative preferred dividends (822,561) ------------ Loss applicable to common shares $(20,405,777) ============ Loss per common share (basic and diluted) $ (0.36) ============ Weighted average number of common shares outstanding (basic and diluted) 56,676,823 ============ F-17

Stitch purchases parts and services from Dixie-Narco, Inc. (Dixie), an affiliate of a shareholder (Maytag Holdings, a subsidiary of Maytag Inc.) of the Company. There were purchases from Dixie of $201,000 and $8,000, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003 and for the period May 14, 2002 to June 30, 2002, respectively. Amounts payable to Dixie included in accounts payable in the accompanying June 30, 2003 and 2002 consolidated balance sheets were approximately $130,000 and $124,000, respectively. There were no additional purchases from Dixie during the nine months ended March 31, 2004. 8. Commitments o In July 2003 the Company and the Company's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) amended the terms of his employment agreement (expiring June 2005). Under the terms of the previous Executive Employment Agreement, the CEO would have been granted seven percent (non-dilutive) of all the then issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock in the event a "USA Transaction" (as defined) occurs, which among other events includes a change in control of the Company. The amended terms of the Executive Employment Agreement, eliminates the seven percent (non-dilutive) right to receive Common Stock upon a "USA Transaction" and now grants the CEO an aggregate of 14,000,000 shares of Common Stock subject to adjustment for stock splits or combinations in the event a "USA Transaction" occurs. In exchange for the amendment of these terms, the Company issued an aggregate of 10,500,000 shares of its Common Stock to the CEO valued at $4,620,000 (Unaudited) or $0.44 per share representing the quoted market price of the Company's Common Stock on the date the purchase agreement was entered into and the shares were valued. In connection with this amendment, the CEO also entered into a lock-up agreement pursuant to which he shall not sell 2,500,000 of these shares for a one-year period and 8,000,000 of these shares for a two-year period. The CEO will not be required to pay any additional consideration for these shares of Common Stock. At the time of a "USA Transaction", all of the 14,000,000 shares to be issued to the CEO in connection with this amendment are automatically deemed to be issued and outstanding, and will be entitled to be treated as any other issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. These shares will be irrevocable and fully vested, and have no expiration date and will not be affected by the termination of the CEO with the Company for any reason whatsoever. o The Company conducts its operations from various facilities under operating leases. During March 2003, the Company entered into a lease agreement for its new corporate headquarters. The lease provides for escalating rent payments and a period of free rent prior to the commencement of the lease payments in January 2004. The Company has provided for deferred rent expense for the difference between the rent payments to be made and the straight line allocation of total rent payments to be made over the lease term. In connection with this lease agreement, the Company has provided the landlord with a security deposit comprised of shares in the Jubilee Investment Trust valued at $100,000. F-19

USA Technologies Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 9. Long-Term Debt (continued) 2003 the bank extended the due date on these loans on several occasions under forbearance agreements. At June 30, 2003, the Company is in default under this working capital loan agreement and has agreed to a satisfactory payment arrangement. The bank facility (the Facility) was utilized by Stitch to fund the purchase of vending machines placed at locations where Kodak film products are sold. Borrowings were made from time to time under the Facility, with repayment schedules set at the time of each borrowing, including equal monthly payments over 36 months and an interest rate based upon 495 basis points over the three year U.S. Treasury Notes. The Company granted the bank a security interest in the film products vending machines. Repayment of principal is also insured by a Surety Bond issued by a third-party insurer in exchange for an initial fee paid by the Company. 10. Income Taxes At June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $76,211,000 and $54,769,000, respectively, to offset future taxable income expiring through approximately 2023. At June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Company recorded a net deferred tax asset of approximately $29,771,000 and $20,546,000, respectively, which was reduced by a valuation allowance of the same amount as the realization of the deferred tax asset is not certain, principally due to the lack of earnings history. The timing and extent in which the Company can utilize future tax deductions in any year may be limited by provisions of the Internal Revenue Code regarding changes in ownership of corporations. Stitch had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $10,985,000 at the acquisition date. Such net operating loss carryforwards are limited under these provisions as to the amount available to offset future taxable income. The deferred tax assets arose primarily from the use of different accounting methods for financial statement and income tax reporting purposes as follows: June 30 2003 2002 ------------ ------------ Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforwards $ 28,431,000 $ 19,837,000 Deferred research and development costs 730,000 480,000 Software development costs 1,324,000 1,008,000 Other 338,000 392,000 ------------ ------------ 30,823,000 21,717,000 Deferred tax liabilities: Intangibles (1,052,000) (1,171,000) ------------ ------------ 29,771,000 20,546,000 Valuation allowance (29,771,000) (20,546,000) ------------ ------------ Deferred tax asset, net $ -- $ -- ============ ============ F-21

USA Technologies Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 10. Income Tax (continued) Amounts assigned to intangibles acquired in the Stitch acquisition exceeded the tax basis. Such excess will increase taxable income as the intangibles are amortized. The net operating loss carryforwards will be used to offset the increase in taxable income. Accordingly, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability of $1,171,000 and a deferred tax asset in the same amount related to these intangibles at the acquisition date. 11. Senior Notes and Debentures During June 2002, the Company commenced a $2,500,000 2002-A private placement offering (subsequently increased to 430 units or $4,300,000), consisting of 12% Convertible Senior Notes due December 31, 2005 ("2002 Senior Notes"). Each $10,000 Senior Note is convertible into Common Stock at $.20 per share and interest is payable quarterly. Each Note holder initially received 20,000 Common Stock warrants, however subsequent to June 30, 2002, the Board of Directors amended the offering to replace the warrants with 20,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock. The fair value of the Common Stock issued and the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature aggregating $2,881,847 have been allocated to equity. This resulting debt discount is being amortized to interest expense through December 31, 2005. Through June 30, 2003, the Company issued a total of 401.5 units in this offering, of which 7.5 units are reflected in subscriptions receivable at June 30, 2003. During the year ended June 30, 2003, $489,608 of the 2002 Senior Notes were converted into 2,448,215 shares of the Company's Common Stock. During the nine months ended March 31, 2004, $374,359 (unaudited) of the 2002 Senior Notes were converted into 1,871,797 (unaudited) shares of Common Stock. During fiscal year 2002, the Company commenced a $2,500,000 2001-D private placement offering (subsequently increased to 650 units or $6,500,000), consisting of 12% Convertible Senior Notes due December 31, 2004 ("2001 Senior Notes"). Each $10,000 Senior Note is convertible into Common Stock at $.40 per share and interest is payable quarterly. Certain shareholders of the Company, who held warrants to purchase Common Stock of the Company as part of an earlier private placement at $.50 per share, were offered the opportunity to cancel a portion of such warrants and to receive an equivalent number of new Common Stock warrants at $.10 expiring on December 31, 2002 (subsequently extended to August 31, 2003), if they invested in the 2001-D offering. The original warrants were scheduled to expire on December 31, 2001 or March 31, 2002 (according to their original terms) (Note 13). The estimated fair value of the new warrants was determined to be $1,787,084 (using the Black-Scholes method) and the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of $1,623,352 have been allocated to equity. This resulting debt discount is being amortized to interest expense through December 31, 2004. During fiscal year 2002, the Company issued a total of 481.4 units, resulting in the issuance of $4,814,000 of 2001 Senior Notes. During fiscal year 2001, the Company authorized a $6,700,000 private placement offering ("2000 Senior Notes") of 670 units at $10,000 per unit. Each unit consisted of a $10,000 12% Convertible Senior Note, maturing December 31, 2003, and 2,000 shares of Restricted Common Stock. Each Note is convertible F-22

USA Technologies Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 11. Senior Notes and Debentures (continued) into Common Stock at $1.25 per share anytime through December 31, 2003. The Company issued 1,136,300 shares of Common Stock in connection with this Offering. The fair value of the Common Stock on the date such shares were granted of $1,215,843 and the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature in the 2000 Senior Notes of $409,104 was allocated to equity. This resulting debt discount is being amortized to interest expense through December 31, 2003. Through June 30, 2003, $647,500 of such Notes were converted into 518,000 shares of Common Stock. There have been no conversions subsequent to June 30, 2003. In March 2003, the Company granted to the holders of the 2000 Senior Notes and 2001 Senior Notes the right to extend the maturity date of these Senior Notes to December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2007, respectively, in exchange for reducing the conversion rates from $1.25 to $0.20 per share for the 2000 Senior Notes and from $0.40 to $0.20 per share for the 2001 Senior Notes. This offer has been extended by the Company's Board of Directors until October 31, 2003 and then further extended to December 31, 2003. Through June 30, 2003, $3,548,000 of the 2000 Senior Note holders and $3,363,397 of the 2001 Senior Note holders agreed to this offer and exchanged their Notes. Subsequent to June 30, 2003 and through September 12, 2003, an additional $456,000 of the 2000 Senior Notes and $276,701 of the 2001 Senior Notes have been exchanged for the 2006 Senior Notes and 2007 Senior Notes, respectively. From September 13, 2003 to December 31, 2003, an additional $1,020,000 (unaudited) of the 2000 Senior Notes and $551,252 (unaudited) of the 2001 Senior Notes have been exchanged for the 2006 Senior Notes and 2007 Senior Notes, respectively. For all 2000 Senior Note holders who agreed to exchange their Notes, such amounts have been reflected as long-term in the accompanying June 30, 2003 consolidated balance sheet. Senior Notes scheduled to mature on December 31, 2004 are reflected as a current liability in the accompanying March 31, 2004 consolidated balance sheet along with $10,000 of Senior Notes scheduled to mature on December 31, 2003 that were not exchanged for 2006 Senior Notes. The exchange of the 2000 Senior Notes and 2001 Senior Notes to the 2006 Senior Notes and 2007 Senior Notes was deemed a significant modification of the terms of the Senior Notes and, accordingly the 2000 and 2001 Senior Notes have been extinguished. Accordingly, at June 30, 2003 and for the nine months ended March 31, 2004, the Company expensed $1,521,654 and $318,915 (unaudited) of unamortized debt discount and other issuance costs remaining on the 2000 Senior Notes and 2001 Senior Notes. Such amounts have been reported as loss on debt modification in the June 2003 and March 2004 statement of operations. As the share price was greater than the conversion rate in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003, the Company recorded the intrinsic value of this beneficial conversion feature of $1,318,500 and $590,710 for the Senior Notes due in 2006 and 2007, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2004, an additional $1,981,007 (unaudited) was recorded as beneficial conversion. Such amount has been allocated to equity and the resulting debt discount is being amortized to interest expense through the Notes maturity dates. During fiscal year 2003, $332,500 and $323,334 of the Senior Notes maturing in 2006 and 2007, respectively, were converted into 1,662,500 and 1,616,668, shares of the Company's Common Stock. During the nine months ended March 31, 2004 $1,372,000 (unaudited) and $402,272 (unaudited) of the Senior Notes maturing in 2006 and 2007, respectively, were converted into 8,871,357 shares of the Company's Common Stock.

Such amounts are being amortized over the remaining life of the respective debt instruments. Debt discount amortization for the Senior Notes, which has been reflected as interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations, was approximately $2,690,000 and $1,513,000 for the years ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Senior Notes and Debentures (continued) warrants issued of approximately $279,000 and $43,000 was determined using a Black-Scholes method and has been recorded as interest expense. The holders of Senior Notes continued to have the option to use quarterly interest earned through December 31, 2003 to purchase common shares at $.20 per share. For the nine months ended March 31, 2004, 1,062,034 (unaudited) shares were issued (along with an identical number of warrants) for the payment of quarterly interest to those note holders accepting the offer. The fair value of the warrants issued and the beneficial conversion feature related to the $.20 per share rate used to convert the interest to Common Stock totaled $266,258 (unaudited) and has been recorded as additional interest expense for the period. The Company executed a Securities Purchase Agreement with an investment company for the purchase of $325,000 (as amended) of a 9.75% Convertible Debenture (the Debenture) due August 2004. Interest on the Debenture was payable monthly in arrears and the Debenture was convertible at a price equal to the lesser of $1.00 or 72% (80% prior to June 18, 2002) of the lowest closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock during the 20 day period prior to the conversion. The Company reserved the right to prepay the portion of the Debenture that the investment company elected to convert, plus interest, at 150% of such amount, if the price of Common Stock is less than $0.40 per share. At the time of conversion, the Company issued to the Debenture holder warrants to purchase an amount of Common Stock equal to ten times the number of shares issued upon the conversion of the Debenture. The warrants are exercisable at the same conversion price as the Debenture. Due to the significance of the beneficial conversion feature associated with this instrument, the entire $325,000 of proceeds was allocated to the warrants and has been allocated to equity. This debt discount is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Debenture. During the fiscal years ending June 30, 2003 and 2002, the investment company converted $243,000 and $82,000, respectively of the Debenture, resulting in the issuance of 2,467,225 and 333,678 shares, respectively of Common Stock.

USA Technologies Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 17. Subsequent Events BAYVIEW TECHNOLOGY GROUP, LLC On July 11, 2003, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Bayview Technology Group, LLC (Bayview). Under the terms of the asset purchase agreement the Company issued to Bayview 20,000,000 shares of its restricted Common Stock and cash of $631,247 (unaudited) to settle an obligation of Bayview. The definitive agreement also provides for the Company to assume certain obligations under a royalty agreement expiring May 31, 2006. In connection with this transaction the Company also agreed to issue 170,000 shares of its restricted Common Stock to a consultant who provided certain services to the Company in connection with this acquisition. The acquired energy control equipment reduces energy consumption in vending machines, glass front coolers, laser printers, monitors and other office peripherals throughout the United States. As a result of the acquisition, the Company believes it will be a leading provider of end-to-end networked solutions that includes wireless and internet connections, cashless transaction and security/ID capability and interactive media functionality, and remote inventory and auditing control and energy cost reductions and environmental emissions reductions. The Company also expects to reduce costs through economies of scale. The acquisition cost of Bayview was $10,030,894 (unaudited), which principally was comprised of the issuance of 20,000,000 shares of restricted Common Stock valued at $9,200,000 (unaudited) and a cash payment of $631,247 (unaudited). The value of the 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock was determined based on the average market price of the Company's Common Stock over the two-day period before and after the definitive agreement date of July 11, 2003. The purchase price also included acquisition related costs of $199,647 (unaudited). The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition (Unaudited): Current assets $ 7,628 Property and equipment 244,704 Intangible assets 9,449,000 Goodwill 329,562 ------------ Total assets acquired $ 10,030,894 ============ Of the $9,449,000 (Unaudited) of acquired intangible assets, $7,424,000 (Unaudited) was assigned to patents that are subject to amortization over a 10-year period, $1,011,000 (Unaudited) was assigned to non-compete agreements that are subject to amortization over a 5-year period and $1,014,000 (Unaudited) was assigned to trademarks and trade names that are not subject to amortization. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly, the results of operations of Bayview have been included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations since the date of acquisition. Results of operations of the Company for the nine months ended March 31, 2004 would not have been significantly different than reported had the acquisition taken place July 1, 2003. Pro-forma combined results for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 would have been as follows had the acquisition taken place July 1, 2002 - revenues of $6,306,838 (unaudited); net loss of $12,927,242 (unaudited); loss applicable to common shares of $13,720,828 (unaudited); loss per common share (basic and diluted) of $0.12 (unaudited). OTHER SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On September 26, 2003, the Company completed a sale of 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock to accredited investors at $0.25 per share generating gross proceeds of $5,000,000. Of these shares, Wellington Management Company, LLP purchased 18,000,000 on behalf of their clients, and the balance of the shares were purchased by other investors. An additional 10,000 shares (unaudited) of Common Stock were sold to these investors generating proceeds of $2,500 (unaudited). During September 2003, the Company issued 500,000 shares of Common Stock to an existing investor in connection with provision from a fiscal year 2003 equity transaction. The Company also reduced the exercise price on 750,000 Common Stock Warrants previously issued to this investor from $0.10 per share to $0.0665 per share. Such shares were viewed as an adjustment to the original shares issued in connection with the original private placement offering. On September 16, 2003 and September 24, 2003, the Company sold an aggregate of 700,000 shares of its investment in Jubilee realizing net cash proceeds of approximately $395,000. During September 2003, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the establishment of the 2003-A Stock Compensation Plan whereby 500,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock shall be available for future issuance to Company employees, directors or consultants as compensation. During the period from September 12, 2003 through September 30, 2003, an additional $660,000 of the 2000 Senior Notes and $430,390 of the 2001 Senior Notes have been exchanged for the 2006 and 2007 Senior Notes, respectively. For the 2000 Senior Noteholders who agreed to exchange their notes, such amounts have been reflected as long-term in the accompanying June 30, 2003 consolidated balance sheet. The following condensed consolidated pro forma balance sheet reflects the effects of these subsequent events as if they have occurred as of June 30, 2003: [Enlarge/Download Table] As Reported Proforma Condensed Consolidated Proforma Balance Sheet June 30, 2003 Adjustments June 30, 2003 ----------------------------------------------------- Total current assets $ 5,375,983 $ 4,426,000 $ 9,801,983 Property and equipment 943,784 237,000 1,180,784 Intangibles, including goodwill 11,535,740 9,805,000 21,340,740 Other assets 37,174 -- 37,174 ----------------------------------------------------- Total assets $17,892,681 $14,468,000 $32,360,681 ===================================================== Current liabilities $ 6,215,108 $ 190,000 $ 6,405,108 Long-term liabilities 7,985,490 -- 7,985,490 Total shareholders' equity 3,692,083 14,278,000 17,970,083 ----------------------------------------------------- Total liabilities and shareholders' equity $17,892,681 $14,468,000 $32,360,681 ===================================================== The adjustment column reflects the recording of the operating assets of Bayview. The purchase price is comprised of the issuance of 20,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock valued at $9,200,000, a cash payment of $631,000, the assumption of $40,000 of liabilities and the payment of acquisition related expenses of $228,000. The adjustment column also reflects the issuance of 20,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at $0.25 per share generating gross proceeds of $5,000,000. 18. Subsequent Events (Unaudited) In November 2003, Stitch and the lessor of the office space that Stitch had occupied reached an agreement that required Stitch to pay the lessor $55,000 as consideration to release Stitch from any further obligations under the lease. In addition, a security deposit of approximately $9,000 was retained by the lessor. Accordingly, the difference between estimated lease exit costs accrued of $354,000 and actual consideration paid, was recorded as a reduction of goodwill in the amount of $290,000 during the nine months ended March 31, 2004. On November 6, 2003 the Company reached an agreement with the bank that provided working capital loans to Stitch whereby the Company will make monthly installments to repay the remaining balance ($76,765 as of March 31, 2004) by October 2004. Effective December 31, 2003, the parties to the Kodak Vending Placement Agreement (Note 4) finalized a settlement of a dispute which resulted in the termination of the vending agreement as of December 31, 2003. Under the settlement agreement, the Company received a payment from Kodak of approximately $675,000. The Company will also receive payments of $300 per vending machine from the supplier of the vending machines, as the machines are pulled from service at the supplier's sole cost and expense. Upon receipt of the $300 per machine, title to the vending machine will transfer from Stitch to the supplier. Through March 31, 2004 the Company received approximately $35,000 for these machines. The settlement agreement provides that all machines are to be pulled from service no later than mid calendar year 2004. Substantially all the machines are no longer in service. The agreement also provides for the supplier to cancel a $124,000 obligation of Stitch for the purchase of vending machines. The vending machines were used as collateral to secure the bank facility used to purchase the machines under which $377,653 was outstanding as of March 31, 2004. The Company will repay this debt as the vending machines are returned to the supplier. This termination agreement resulted in gain of $509,244 during the nine months ended March 31, 2004 and such amount is reflected as Other income in the March 31, 2004 Consolidated Statement of Operations. This gain is comprised of the payment from Kodak of approximately $675,000 plus the cancellation of Stitch's obligation to the supplier of the vending machines of approximately $124,000 reduced by a write down of the carrying value of vending machines of approximately $290,000 to reflect the vending machines at their realizable value of $300 per machine. The vending machines are reported as assets held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, as it was determined that the plan of sale criteria in FAS 144 was met in the termination agreement, at which time depreciation of these assets ceased. To the extent any costs are incurred by Stitch to fulfill its obligations under the settlement agreement, these costs will be recorded as incurred. In March 2004, the Company sold 969,091 (unaudited) of the Jubilee shares for net proceeds of $1,075,891 (unaudited). Sale proceeds of $762,130 (unaudited) were outstanding as of March 31, 2004 and are reflected as Other receivable in the March 31, 2004 unaudited Balance Sheet. These proceeds were subsequently received in April 2004. Gains realized in these sales during the nine months ended March 31, 2004 totaled $603,480 (unaudited) and are reflected in Other income (expense) in the March 31, 2004 consolidated statement of operations. An unrealized gain of $51,819 (unaudited) on the remaining shares held by the Company is reflected in shareholders' equity as Accumulated other comprehensive income at March 31, 2004. On April 21, 2004, the Company and La Jolla Cove Investors, Inc. reached an agreement regarding La Jolla's letter claiming damages for failure to register certain shares underlying La Jolla's warrants. Per this agreement, the Company agreed to extend the expiration date of La Jolla's remaining 13,510,000 warrants until December 1, 2005, La Jolla released all claims against the Company and La Jolla agreed to limit the sale of our shares during any calendar month to an amount not greater than seven percent of the prior month's share trading volume. On May 11, 2004, the Company agreed to reduce the exercise price of La Jolla's remaining warrants from $0.1008 to $0.0908. During May 2004, La Jolla exercised all of their remaining warrants at $0.0908 per share generating net proceeds of $1,215,900. In June 2004 the Board of Directors took certain actions: Each investor in the 2004-A private placement offering of Common Stock (an offering for the issuance of up to 35,000,000 shares of Common Stock at $.15 per share authorized by the Board of Directors in February 2004 resulting in sales through March 31, 2004 of 550,000 shares for proceeds of $82,500 and an aggregate of 28,290,833 shares for proceeds of $4,243,625 through June 29, 2004) will receive warrants to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock equal to 50% of the number of shares purchased in the offering. These warrants will be exercisable at $.20 per share and expire on December 31, 2004. As of June 29, 2004, 14,145,417 warrants were issued. Warrants granted to holders of Senior Notes who opted to receive payment of interest in Common Shares in lieu of cash had the expiration date of their warrants extended to August 30, 2004 from June 30, 2004. As of June 29, 2004 there were warrants outstanding to purchase 3,716,496 shares of Common Stock at $.20 per share. In addition, the holders of these warrants were granted one additional warrant for each warrant previously granted with the same exercise price and an expiration date of December 31, 2004. A Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Steve Illes, an accredited investor, was approved.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM Members Bayview Technology Group, LLC Denver, Colorado We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Bayview Technology Group, LLC (the "Company" and "Successor") as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related statements of operations, members' equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2002 and for the period from June 1, 2001 (commencement of operations) through December 31, 2001, and the statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows of Bayview Technology Group, Inc. ("Predecessor") as described in Summary of Accounting Policies - Organization, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation for the period from January 1, 2001 to May 31, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits 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 Successor financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2002 and for the period from June 1, 2001 (commencement of operations) through December 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Further, in our opinion, the Predecessor financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects the results of operations and cash flows of the Predecessor for the period January 1, 2001 to May 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As discussed in Summary of Accounting Policies - Organization, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation, the Successor purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of the Predecessor on May 31, 2001, in a business combination accounted for as a purchase. As a result, the financial statements of the Sucessor are presented on a new basis of accounting from the financial statements of Predecessor and, therefore, are not comparable. As discussed in Summary of Accounting Policies, the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill in 2002. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in the Summary of Accounting Policies - Going Concern and Management's Plans, the Company sold substantially all of its revenue producing assets in 2003 and is dependent on funding from its members for its continuing operations. These conditions give rise to substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's Plans are also described in the Summary of Accounting Policies, Going Concern and Management's Plans. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ Anton Collins Mitchell LLP Denver, Colorado September 4, 2003 F-34

BAYVIEW TECHNOLOGY GROUP, LLC SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES ORGANIZATION, DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Bayview Technology Group LLC (the "Company" or "Successor") was organized as a Limited Liability Company ("LLC") under the laws of the State of Colorado in December 2000. In July 2003, The Company changed its name to BT LLC. The Company acquired Bayview Technology Group, Inc. (the "Predecessor," subsequently changing its name to Bayview Ventures, Inc.) on May 31, 2001 (effectively June 1, 2001) and began operations on June 1, 2001. The Company is engaged in the sale and distribution of energy saving devices, more particularly, plug load controllers. The accompanying financial statements reflect the results of operations and cash flows of the Predecessor for the period January 1, 2001 through May 31, 2001. GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT'S PLANS As more fully described in Note 13, the Company sold substantially all of its long-lived assets in July 2003 and does not currently anticipate continuing its operations. Based on projections, management currently estimates that the Company will not have the ability to meet all of its obligations as they come due. The Company is attempting to raise additional funds from its members to meet this budgeted shortfall but has not received a firm commitment from any of its members to provide the necessary funding. These conditions give rise to substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. In response to this condition, management is actively trying to secure the necessary additional funds from its members, reduce or eliminate all non-essential costs, and negotiate extensions and reductions in the Company's obligations with various creditors. No assurances can be provided that the Company will be successful in executing its plans. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of asset carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (using the first in, first out method) or market, and consist primarily of saleable finished goods including electronic components and devices. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Provisions for depreciation are computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 7 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. F-39
SB-2/A106th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 106th
INCOME TAXES There is no provision for income taxes because, as a limited liability company, the Company's taxable income is passed through to its members who pay income taxes on their proportionate share of the taxable income. STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS The Company considers all short-term investments purchased with maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS Patents and trademarks were recorded at cost less accumulated amortization, and were amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated life of fifteen years. Amortization expense on patents and trademarks was $50,612 for the year ended December 31, 2002 and $29,167 for the period from June 1, 2001 (Commencement of Operations) through December 31, 2001. GOODWILL Goodwill represents the excess of the cost over the fair value of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition (Note 1) and was being amortized on the straight-line method over fifteen years through December 31, 2001. (See Summary of Account Policies - Recent Accounting Pronouncements for treatment of goodwill as of January 1, 2002). Goodwill amortization was $73,672 for the period ended December 31, 2001. F-40
SB-2/A107th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 107th
LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND LONG-LIVED ASSETS FOR SALE Long-lived assets, including property and equipment and patents and trademarks are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the expected future cash flow from the use of the assets and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss is recognized and measured using the asset's fair value. In the period when the plan of sale criteria of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144 are met, long-lived assets are reported as held for sale, depreciation and amortization cease, and the assets are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of the Company's financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalent balances in excess of the insurance provided by governmental insurance authorities. The Company's cash and cash equivalents are placed with financial institutions and are primarily in demand deposit accounts. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are associated with many customers dispersed across geographic areas. The Company reviews a customer's credit history before extending credit and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information. No allowance for doubtful accounts was established at December 31, 2002 and 2001. F-41
SB-2/A108th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 108th
ADVERTISING COSTS The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs amounted to $54,525 for the year ended December 31, 2002 and $13,080 for the period from June 1, 2001 (Commencement of Operations) through December 31, 2001. REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company recognizes revenue when its products are shipped to its customers, at which time title passes to the customer and the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred. Revenue from certain sales programs with utility organizations are not recognized until the product has been installed at designated locations and the Company has no remaining performance obligation. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development expenditures are expensed in the period in which incurred. For the period from June 1, 2001 (Commencement of Operations) through December 31, 2001, research and development expenses were $9,432 and for the year ended December 31, 2002 they were $32,676. STOCK OPTION PLAN The Company has a stock-based employee compensation plan, which is described more fully in Note 6. The Company accounts for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation is reflected in the Company's net income (loss), as all options granted under this plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Had the Company employed the fair value method of accounting prescribed by SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the pro forma net income (loss) of the Company would not be materially different than the reported net income (loss) for any period presented.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") finalized SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires the use of the purchase method of accounting and prohibits the use of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 141 also requires that companies recognize acquired intangible assets apart from goodwill if the acquired intangible assets meet certain criteria and, upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, that companies reclassify the carrying amounts of intangible assets and goodwill based on the criteria in SFAS No. 141. SFAS No. 142 requires, among other things, that companies no longer amortize goodwill, but instead test goodwill for impairment at least annually. In addition, SFAS No. 142 requires that companies identify reporting units for the purposes of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill, reassess the useful lives of other existing recognized intangible assets, and cease amortization of intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life should be tested for impairment in accordance with the guidance in SFAS No. 142. Effective January 1, 2002 the Company adopted SFAS No. 142. As of December 31, 2001 the Company had $1,820,758 in unamortized goodwill. Upon the adoption of SFAS No. 142, goodwill is no longer amortizable and will be subject to impairment testing. As a result, the Company has not amortized goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2002. Had the Company not amortized goodwill during the period ended December 31, 2001, amortization expense would have decreased by $73,672 and net loss would have decreased by $73,672 to ($206,721). In accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company completed a transitional impairment test and an annual impairment test of goodwill and has determined goodwill and other intangible assets were not impaired. Goodwill will be tested annually and whenever events and circumstances occur indicating that the asset may be impaired. Upon the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company evaluated the useful lives of existing intangible assets and determined that the existing useful lives are appropriate. In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. SFAS No. 143 requires the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation to be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. SFAS No. 143 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company's adoption of this statement had no material impact on the Company's financial statements. F-43
SB-2/A110th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 110th
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED) In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 144 requires that those long-lived assets be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or in discontinued operations. Therefore, discontinued operations will no longer be measured at net realizable value or include amounts for operating losses that have not yet occurred. SFAS 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and, generally, is to be applied prospectively. In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, Rescissions of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13 and Technical Corrections. SFAS No. 145 rescinds SFAS No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and an amendment of that Statement, SFAS No. 64, Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred that at the date of commitment to an exit or disposal plan. Examples of such costs covered by the standard include lease termination costs and certain employee severance costs associated with a restructuring, discontinued operation, plant closing or other exit or disposal activity. SFAS No. 146 is effective prospectively for exit and disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. As the provisions of SFAS No. 146 are to be applied prospectively after its adoption date, the Company cannot determine the potential effects that adoption of SFAS No. 146 will have on its future results of operations or financial position. In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123. SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, 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 Company adopted the disclosure requirements effective December 31, 2002 in its financial statements. F-44

The note was in the original amount of $1,770,000 and bears interest at the rate of 6.9% per annum and was originally payable in three annual installments plus accrued interest beginning on June 1, 2002. The note is secured, subject to certain subordination, by all inventories, accounts receivable, and substantially all of the assets acquired in the business combination (Note 1). Effective April 30, 2002, the terms of the note payable were amended. An initial payment of $250,000 was made June 30, 2002. Subsequent payments are to be made based on 50% of excess cash flow defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization less fixed charges (interest expense for the period of determination plus minimum rent payments under operating leases) and total capital expenditures. The calculation is to be completed by the tenth day of the subsequent month and reviewed and agreed to by the note holder. Payments will be made immediately thereafter. During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company made principal payments of $557,175. Included in accounts payable and accrued interest at December 31, 2002 and 2001 is $43,807 and $65,730 of accrued interest due on the note. The term of the note agreement was modified in both May and June 2003, pursuant to which the maturity date of the note payable was extended to July 14, 2003. Bayview Ventures, Inc. agreed to modify the repayment terms of the principal and accrued interest on the note payable in connection with the acquisition of certain assets of the Company by USA Technologies, Inc. ("USAT"). (See Note 13) In accordance with the modified terms, in July 2003, the Company paid Bayview Ventures, Inc. approximately $631,000 and 1,200,000 shares of USAT common stock having an agreed upon value of $333,333. The remaining balance owed to Bayview Ventures, Inc. (including both principal and accrued interest) of $333,333 is to be repaid no later than November 8, 2003. F-47

5. LEASE OBLIGATIONS The Company leases office space under three operating lease agreements. The lease agreements generally require the Company to pay certain operating expenses, maintenance, and property taxes. The lease agreements are noncancellable. Two agreements expire in June 2005 and one agreement expires in October 2003. Rent expense was $48,324 for the period from June 1, 2001 (Commencement of Operations) through December 31, 2001 and $111,633 for the year ended December 31, 2002. Future minimum lease payments under the noncancellable operating leases are as follows: Years Ending December 31, Amount ----------------------------------------- 2003 $ 121,560 2004 101,172 2005 51,864 -------------- $ 274,596 ============== 6. MEMBERS' EQUITY The Company issued 60,000 units to its founding members, for $1,000 at the formation of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of a private placement memorandum ("PPM") in 2001, the Company issued 35,000 membership units at a per unit price of $50 for total proceeds of $1,750,000. Issuance expenses in connection with the offering were $37,722. Under terms of the PPM, the Company guaranteed the investors that the value of their units would appreciate at no less than a 20% cumulative return over the three-year period following the issuance of the units. In the event that the overall value (as determined by a calculation defined in the PPM) of the Company in June 2004 or the value received by the Company upon the sale of its assets prior to that time does not provide for the minimum return, the investors are to receive additional units as determined by a calculation contained in the PPM. The PPM also granted the investors the right, after the payment of amounts due to Bayview Ventures, Inc. (see Note 4), to an annual preferential right to distributions of $200,000. No such distributions have been paid through 2002. F-48

6. MEMBERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) Option Plan Effective May 30, 2001, the Company adopted The Bayview Technology Group, LLC 2001 Membership Option Plan (the "Plan"). The purpose of the Plan is to provide a benefit to key employees and management. Participants of the Plan shall be recommended by the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and the issuance of unit options are to be approved by the Personnel and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The membership units, which may be delivered under the Plan, shall not exceed an aggregate of 15,000 units. During 2002, options to purchase 4,750 membership units at a per unit price of $52.63 ware granted. In March 2003, 1,189 of the options vested and 132 options will vest each month thereafter until all 4,750 become vested. The options expire in June 2007. The aggregate fair value of the options granted (determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and assuming no dividends or volatility, a discount rate of 4.5% and an expected life of five years) was estimated to be approximately $37,000. Upon a merger of the Company or the sale of substantially all of its assets, any unvested options become immediately vested and exercisable. The options became fully vested in July 2003 upon the closing of the USAT transaction (see Note 13). Pro forma results of operations, assuming the Company had used the fair value method of accounting for the 2002 option grant, are not presented as they do not differ materially from the Companys historical results.

10. SIGNIFICANT CONTRACTS The Company has received greater than 10% of its revenues from certain customers. A summary of significant customers is as follows: December 31 Revenues: 2002 2001 ------------------------- Customer A 36% 33% Customer B 12% 11% Customer C -% 13% Customer D -% 16% ------------------------- December 31 Accounts Receivable: 2002 2001 ------------------------- Customer A 2% 79% Customer B 44% 4% Customer C -% 9% Customer D -% 7% ------------------------- 11. CONTINGENCIES In February 2003, a fire occurred in a facility in Idaho, in which the Company's product was installed days before the fire. The insurance company representing the company that occupied the facility is investigating the cause of the fire. The Company has informed their insurance carrier of the incident and the Company is currently in the process of investigating the matter and to what extent, if any, the Company may be held responsible. The outcome of this contingency is currently unknown. Any potential liability may be covered by the Company's insurance carrier. No liability for the outcome of this contingency has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. The Company occupied premises in California through June 1, 2002, at which time the premises were vacated. The landlord is seeking rent from the Company for the period from June 2002 through October 2003 (lease termination date), in the aggregate amount of approximately $62,000. The Company does not believe it is responsible for this amount, as it never formally assumed the lease. Bayview Ventures, Inc. was the original lessee. At December 31, 2002, the Company has accrued $26,000, which represents the Company's best estimate of its expected liability to settle the matter. F-51

BAYVIEW TECHNOLOGY GROUP, LLC SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 AND 2002 (Unaudited) ORGANIZATION, DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Bayview Technology Group, LLC (the "Company" was organized as a Limited Liability Company ("LLC") under the laws of the State of Colorado in December 2000. The Company is engaged in the sale and distribution of energy saving devices, more particularly, plug load controllers. GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT'S PLANS As more fully described in Note 8, the Company sold substantially all of its long-lived assets in July 2003 and does not currently anticipate continuing its operations. Based on projections, management currently estimates that the Company will not have the ability to meet all of its obligations as they come due. The Company is attempting to raise additional funds from its members to meet this budgeted shortfall but has not received a firm commitment from any of its members to provide the necessary funding. These conditions give rise to substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. In response to this condition, management is actively trying to secure the necessary additional funds from its members, reduce or eliminate all non-essential costs, and negotiate extensions and reductions in the Company's obligations with various creditors. No assurances can be provided that the Company will be successful in executing its plans. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of asset carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (using the first in, first out method) or market, and consist primarily of saleable finished goods including electronic components and devices. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Provisions for depreciation are computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 7 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Effective in April 2003, property and equipment was reflected as held for sale and reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value, less cost to sell. F-57
SB-2/A124th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 124th
INCOME TAXES There is no provision for income taxes because, as a limited liability company, the Company's taxable income is passed through to its members who pay income taxes on their proportionate share of the taxable income. STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS The Company considers all short-term investments purchased with maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS Patents and trademarks were recorded at cost less accumulated amortization, and were amortized using the straight-line method over fifteen years. Amortization expense on patents and trademarks was $26,911 and $25,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Commencing in April 2003, patents and trademarks are considered to be held for sale and carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. GOODWILL Goodwill represents the excess of the cost over the fair value of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested annually to determine whether there is any impairment to its carrying value. Impairment testing is also done if events or circumstances arise indicating that impairment may have occurred. LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND LONG-LIVED ASSETS FOR SALE Long-lived assets, including property and equipment and patents and trademarks are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the expected future cash flow from the use of the assets and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss is recognized and measured using the asset's fair value. In the period when the plan of sale criteria of SFAS No. 144 are met, long-lived assets are reported as held for sale, depreciation and amortization cease, and the assets are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. F-58
SB-2/A125th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 125th
USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of the Company's financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. ADVERTISING COSTS The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs amounted to $53,932 and $15,631 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company recognizes revenue when its products are shipped to its customers, at which time title passes to the customer and the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred. Revenue from certain sales programs with utility organizations are not recognized until the product has been installed at designated locations and the Company has no remaining performance obligation. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development expenditures are expensed in the period in which incurred. Research and development expenses were $39,370 and $14,147 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. STOCK OPTION PLAN The Company has a stock-based employee compensation plan. The Company accounts for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation is reflected in the Company's net income (loss), as all options granted under this plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying membership units on the date of grant. Had the Company employed the fair value method of accounting prescribed by SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the pro forma net income (loss) of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 would not have been materially different from the reported net income (loss).

7. CONTINGENCIES In February 2003, a fire occurred in a facility in Idaho, in which the Company's product was installed days before the fire. The insurance company representing the company that occupied the facility is investigating the cause of the fire. The Company has informed their insurance carrier of the incident and the Company is currently in the process of investigating the matter and to what extent, if any, the Company may be held responsible. The outcome of this contingency is currently unknown. Any potential liability may be covered by the Company's insurance carrier. No liability for the outcome of this contingency has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. The Company occupied premises in California through June 1, 2002, at which time the premises were vacated. The landlord is seeking rent from the Company for the period from June 2002 through October 2003 (lease termination date), in the aggregate amount of approximately $62,000. The Company does not believe it is responsible for this amount, as it never formally assumed the lease. Bayview Ventures, Inc. was the original lessee. At June 30, 2003, the Company has accrued $26,000, which represents the Company's best estimate of its expected liability to settle the matter. 8. SALE OF OPERATIONS On July 11, 2003, the Company sold substantially all of its fixed assets and intellectual property (including patents and trademarks), as well as other various assets, to USAT in exchange for 20,000,000 shares of USAT common stock. Additionally, USAT paid approximately $631,000 to Bayview Ventures, Inc., representing the amount currently due to Bayview Ventures, Inc. pursuant to its note payable from the Company. Pursuant to the sale agreement, the shares of USAT common stock received by the Company cannot be sold for a one-year period, after which time a monthly limitation will be placed on the maximum number of shares, that may be sold. The long-lived assets covered by the sales agreement have been reported in the accompanying balance sheets as assets held for sale. Management determined that the plan of sale criteria in SFAS No. 144 was met in April 2003, at which time depreciation and amortization of these assets ceased and the assets began to be reported at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

Our By-laws substantively provide that we will indemnify our officers, directors, employees and agents to the fullest extent provided by Section 1746 of the BCL.

In addition, no such limitation of liability is available with respect to the responsibility or liability of a director pursuant to any criminal statute or for the payment of taxes pursuant to Federal, state or local law.

Undertakings. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: 85
SB-2/A154th Page of 157TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 154th
(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement. (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. Provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant`s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. 86
