Item 11          Executive Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Overview of Compensation Program

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has responsibility for establishing, implementing and continually monitoring adherence with the Company’s executive compensation philosophy. The Compensation Committee ensures that the total compensation paid to the executive officers of the Company is fair, reasonable and, to the extent possible given the Company’s financial situation, competitive. The role of the Compensation Committee is to oversee, on behalf of the Board and for the benefit of the Company and its shareholders, the Company’s compensation and benefit plans and policies, administer its stock plans and review and approve annually all compensation decisions relating to the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and the other executive officers of the Company. The Compensation Committee meets at least annually to review executive compensation programs, approve compensation levels and performance targets, review management performance, and approve final executive bonus distributions, if any.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Company and the Compensation Committee believe that compensation paid to executive officers should be closely aligned with the performance of the Company on both a short-term and long-term basis, and that such compensation should assist the Company in attracting and retaining key executives critical to the Company’s long-term success. The Compensation Committee believes that the most effective executive compensation program is one that is designed to reward the achievement of specific annual, long-term and strategic goals by the Company, and which aligns executives’ interests with those of the stockholders by rewarding performance above established goals, with the ultimate objective of improving stockholder value. The Compensation Committee evaluates compensation to ensure that the Company maintains its ability to retain superior employees in key positions and that compensation provided to key employees remains relatively competitive. To that end, the Compensation Committee believes executive compensation packages provided by the Company to its executives should include both cash and stock-based compensation that reward performance as measured against established goals, and cash retention payments.

Role of Executive Officers in Compensation Decisions

The Compensation Committee makes or approves all compensation decisions for the CEO, CFO and all other executive officers of the Company. Typically, the CEO annually reviews the performance of each executive officer. The conclusions reached and recommendations based on these reviews, including with respect to salary adjustments and option awards, are then presented to the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee considers the CEO’s recommendation when making its final compensation decision for all executives other than the CEO. The Compensation Committee can exercise

5




its discretion in modifying any recommended adjustments or awards to executives.  As a result of the Company’s performance in 2006, our CEO did not propose salary adjustments or option awards in 2006 and to date, none have been proposed for 2007.

Components of Executive Compensation

The compensation program for our executive officers consists of the following components:

·      Base salary;

·      Performance incentive program;

·      Annual cash incentives, including bonuses;

·      Long-term equity incentives;

·      Health and welfare benefits; and

·      Retention arrangements.

Base Salary.  Executive salaries are established upon hire based on a number of factors, including the individual’s current pay levels, relevant experience, expected contribution and the competitive marketplace.  Typically, base salaries are reviewed annually and adjustments made to recognize and reward individual contributions and performance, and recognize the impact of the position within our organizational structure.  Upon being appointed as President and CEO from Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Henry’s base salary was adjusted to $200,000 per year.  Other than the foregoing, as a result of the Company’s performance in 2006, our Named Executive Officers did not receive salary increases.  The Compensation Committee believes that, given the Company’s current turnaround situation, our Named Executive Officers base salaries are appropriately set according to our philosophy.  Thus far, no changes to executive salaries have been made in 2007.

Performance Incentive Program. The Company has a performance incentive plan covering most corporate administrative employees, including executive officers other than the CEO. The performance incentive program provides compensation opportunities in the form of quarterly cash incentives based on objective results that promote both short-term and long-term shareholder value.  Under the program, each corporate administrative employee, including each executive officer other than the CEO, is compensated based on achievement of pre-determined goals set in conjunction with each individual’s manager or supervisor prior to the beginning of each quarter.  These cash incentives reflect the Compensation Committee’s belief that a valuable portion of the compensation of each employee should be in the form of variable compensation linked to performance.  Please see the “Summary Compensation Table” below for information regarding amounts paid to Named Executive Officers under this program.

Annual Cash Incentives. The Company also has an informal cash bonus program that rewards group, team and/or individual performance based on the successful achievement of established financial and operating performance measures, succession planning and development and recruitment and employee retention.  Operating improvement, revenue growth and profitability are typically the primary determinant of whether any, and how much, bonuses are paid to executive officers.  In 2006, we did not achieve our key goals.  Accordingly, none of our executive officers were considered for bonus payouts for 2006 results.

Long-Term Equity Incentives. From time to time, the Compensation Committee provides our executive officers with long-term incentive compensation through grants of options to purchase our Common Stock. The stock option awards usually vest quarterly over a four year period. The goal of our long-term equity incentive program is to align the interests of executive officers with those of the

6




Company’s stockholders and to provide each executive officer with a significant incentive to manage the Company from the perspective of an owner with an equity stake in the business. We believe that equity awards directly motivate an executive to maximize long-term stockholder value.  As a result of the Company’s performance in 2006, our executive officers did not receive option grants or stock awards.  Thus far, no option grants to executive officers have been made in 2007.

Health and Welfare Benefits. We provide the following benefits to our executive officers generally on the same basis as they are provided to all of our employees:

·      Health and dental insurance;

·      Life insurance;

·      Short and long-term disability insurance; and

·      401(k) plan.

We believe these benefits are consistent with those offered by other similarly-sized telecommunication services companies.

Retention Arrangements. Executives and certain other key employees received cash payments to provide an incentive to remain in the employment of Metro One in 2006.  Please refer to “Retention Plan; Employment and Related Agreements” below for a detailed description of retention arrangements and the “Summary Compensation Table” below for the amount of retention payments made to Named Executive Officers in 2006.

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits  The Company does not provide the executive officers with perquisites or other personal benefits such as Company vehicles, club memberships, financial planning assistance, tax preparation, or other benefits not described above.

Compensation Committee Report

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis of this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A with management.  Based on these reviews and discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

Option Exercises and Stock Vested

No option awards were exercised or shares of common stock acquired upon vesting by our Named Executive Officers during fiscal 2006.

Nonqualifed Deferred Compensation

None of our Named Executive Officers had nonqualified deferred compensation during fiscal 2006.

Retention Plan; Employment and Related Agreements

Retention PlanOn December 28, 2005, the Board of Directors approved the Metro One Telecommunications, Inc. Retention Plan (the “Retention Plan”) to provide certain of our employees who possess specialized knowledge critical to our business, including executive officers, with an incentive to remain in the employment of Metro One.  Under the Retention Plan, participants, which included each of our Named Executive Officers, were entitled to retention payments in an amount up to three weeks base pay per year of service at the employee’s current rate, with a minimum payment of 26 weeks base pay at the employee’s current rate.  Exceptions to the amount could be made by the Board of Directors at the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer.  The eligible employee and the Chief Executive Officer executed a written retention agreement containing the eligibility criteria and terms of payment (the “Retention Agreement”).

The participants under the Retention Plan were selected by the Board of Directors or its designee based on any or all of the following factors: position held, skills, and/or relative importance of skills to required tasks.  A participant generally was entitled, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions such as satisfactory job performance, to 25% of the total retention payment the first regular pay day after the Retention Agreement was signed; an additional 25% half-way through the retention period, as determined by the Board of Directors or its designee based on certain circumstances or conditions; and the remaining 50% at the end of the retention period.  If employment ended during the retention period due to the participant’s resignation or termination for Cause (as defined in the Retention Agreement), no retention payment was paid.  If Metro One terminated the participant’s employment without Cause, or the employee terminated his or her employment for Good Reason (as defined in the Retention Agreement) prior to the end of the retention period, the remaining amount of the retention payment would have been paid.  Please refer to the “Summary Compensation Table” above for the amount of retention payments made to our Named Executive Officers in 2006.

Consulting Agreements.  On November 29, 2005, we entered into a consulting agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) with James M. Usdan in connection with his appointment as our interim President and Chief Executive Officer of Metro One on October 7, 2005.  Under the Consulting Agreement, Mr. Usdan served as our President and Chief Executive Officer and was paid $14,166.67 per month for such services.  Mr. Usdan was also reimbursed for the cost of health insurance coverage up to $1,350.00 per month during the term of his engagement.  Mr. Usdan was also granted a nonqualified stock option to purchase 150,000 shares of our common stock under the 2004 plan, which vested in equal quarterly installments and fully on July 4, 2006.  On June 1, 2006, the Consulting Agreement was amended to terminate Mr. Usdan’s services as President and Chief Executive Officer but to retain his services for purposes of consultation, advice and assistance to the Company through November 1, 2006 at the rate of $14,166,67 per month for the months of June, July, and August 2006 and $7,083.34 per month through the termination of the Consulting Agreement.

Indemnification AgreementsWe have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers.  Such agreements require us, among other things, to indemnify our officers and directors, other than for liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable nature, and

10




to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceedings against them as to which they could be indemnified.

Director Compensation

Generally, directors who are not employees receive $20,000 as an annual fee, $3,000 plus expenses for each meeting attended in person and $1,000 plus expenses for each Board meeting attended by telephone.  Committee chairpersons and committee members receive $1,000 and $750, respectively, for each meeting attended.  Mr. Rutherford also receives $3,000 per month, plus an additional $1,000 per meeting, for his service as Chairman of the Board.

Generally, directors who are not employees are also granted non-qualified options to purchase 3,750 shares of common stock upon joining the Board of Directors and 3,750 shares of common stock in October of each year.  In July of each year, Mr. Rutherford, the non-employee Chairman of the Board, is also granted a non-qualified option to purchase 5,312 shares of common stock.  All of these grants are vested and exercisable at the time of the grant and have exercise prices equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant.

Applicable percentage ownership in the table is based on 6,233,326 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 1, 2007. Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options that are currently exercisable or become exercisable within 60 days of April 1, 2007 are considered outstanding for purposes of calculating the percentage owned by a person, but not for purposes of calculating the percentage owned by any other person.

Item 13          Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

We have a number of policies, procedures and practices that relate to the identification, review and approval of related party transactions.  As part of our review of certain relationships, we distribute and collect questionnaires annually that solicit information about any direct or indirect transactions with the Company from each of our directors and officers.

Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics requires all directors, officers and employees to avoid any situation that involves an actual or apparent conflict of interest in personal and professional relationships or with their duty to, or with any interest of, the Company.  Any situation that involves, or may reasonably be inferred to involve, a conflict between a director, officer or employee’s personal interests and the interests of the Company must be disclosed to the compliance officer who will, as applicable, bring the matter to the attention of the Chair of the Audit Committee.  All related party transactions involving the Company’s directors or executive officers must be reviewed and approved by the Board in advance of entering into the transaction and any director which has a potential conflict of interest in the transaction must excuse himself or herself from voting.  No related party transaction shall be approved or ratified if such transaction is contrary to the best interests of the Company.

From January 1, 2006 to the date of this report, there have not been any transactions, and there are currently no proposed transactions, in which the amount involved exceeded $120,000 to which the Company was or is to be a participant and in which any executive officer, director, nominee of director, 5% beneficial owner of our common stock or member of their immediately family had or will have a direct or indirect interest, except for the employment of Mr. James Usdan, currently a member of our Board of Directors, as interim President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company as described above under Item 11 “Retention Plan; Employment and Related Agreements.”

Director Independence

The Board of Directors has determined that a majority of the directors are “independent” under current Nasdaq Marketplace Rules.  In addition, our Board of Directors has determined that each member of the audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees is independent under such standards.  Our independent directors are Messrs. Maoz, Rutherford, Swanson, and Usdan, and Ms. Oldshue.

Item 14          Principal Accounting Fees and Services

On October 23, 2006 the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors approved the decision to discharge Deloitte & Touche LLP as its independent auditors.  The reports of Deloitte & Touche LLP on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles except that the report for that year ended December 31, 2005 expressed substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  During the two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the subsequent interim period from January 1, 2006 through October 23, 2006, there have been no disagreements with Deloitte & Touche LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or

14




auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Deloitte & Touche LLP, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.  No “reportable events,” as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, occurred within the two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the subsequent interim period from January 1, 2006 through October 23, 2006, with Deloitte & Touche LLP.

On October 23, 2006 the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors engaged BDO Seidman, LLP as its registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2006.  During the two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the subsequent interim period preceding the new appointment, neither the Company (nor anyone on its behalf) has consulted BDO Seidman, LLP regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that BDO Seidman, LLP concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or a “reportable event.”

The following table shows the fees paid or accrued by the Company for the audit and other services provided by BDO Seidman, LLP and Deloitte & Touche LLP for fiscal year 2006 and Deloitte & Touche LLP for fiscal year 2005.

(1)   Represents the aggregate fees billed by our principal accounting firm, BDO Seidman LLP, and our former principal accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu and their respective affiliates (collectively, “Deloitte & Touche”) for professional services rendered for the audits of our annual financial statements and for the reviews of the financial statements included in our quarterly reports for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.  For the year ended December 31, 2005, this total includes approximately $138,300 of professional fees and expenses incurred by Deloitte & Touche in assessing the Company’s internal control over financial reporting prior to the change in the definition of an “accelerated filer” by the SEC in December 2005.  As a result of the change in the definition of an accelerated filer, we were not required to report on our internal control over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2005, and, as a result, Deloitte & Touche was not required to issue a related attestation report.

(2)   Represents the aggregate fees billed by Deloitte & Touche for audit and advisory services primarily relating to our filings with the SEC and other regulatory requirements.

Our Audit Committee has adopted a policy and procedure requiring approval before our independent registered public accounting firm can be engaged to perform audit or non-audit services.  The services can be pre-approved by our Audit Committee or by any member of our Audit Committee to whom authority for pre-approval has been delegated, provided that no member has authority to approve any non-audit services that are expected to result in fees for the engagement or during any calendar year of over $50,000, or that are expected to be completed after 12 months from the date of the engagement.  Any approvals by a member are reported to our Audit Committee, for informational purposes, at its next

15




regular meeting. All audit-related services, tax services and other services rendered by our independent registered public accounting firms were pre-approved by our Audit Committee to the extent required, which Committee concluded that the provision of those services was compatible with the maintenance of that firm’s independence in the conduct of its auditing functions.
