NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. THE COMPANY
IPIX Corporation (IPIX or Company), formally Internet Pictures Corporation, provides
mission-critical imaging solutions for commerce, communication and security applications. The
Companys solutions create, process and manage a rich variety of media including still images,
360-degree by 360-degree immersive images and video. During 2004, the Company focused on realigning
its core competencies with its strategic business goals. The InfoMedia business unit, formerly
responsible for the development, marketing and sales of immersive photography products, was
integrated with the security business unit. The still photography product teams now work closely
with the video product teams leveraging mature development processes and expertise, and the sales
and marketing of each product line is conducted as a coordinated effort. In markets where customers
benefit from combined products (video and stills) in a single offering, this new structure allows
IPIX to do so seamlessly. In addition, in February 2005 we sold the AdMission business unit, which
developed and sold products to the online advertising market. In accordance with Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (FAS) No.144,
Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets"(FAS 144), the assets and
liabilities related to the AdMission business unit were classified as held for sale at December 31,
2004, and the operations of this business unit were considered discontinued operations (see Note
3).
The Companys extensive intellectual property covers patents for 360-degree imaging, video and
surveillance applications.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IPIX
Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Interactive Pictures Corporation and PW Technology,
Inc. The consolidation of these entities will collectively be referred to as the Company or IPIX.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of IPIX Corporation, a
Delaware corporation, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and
instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these statements do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of the Companys Management, these unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature necessary to present
fairly the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries at September 30, 2005 and
December 31, 2004, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005
and 2004 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004. Results of
operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 is not necessarily indicative of
results of operations expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2005. Please refer to
the Companys 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A, for the complete
consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2004.
2. GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented in
accordance with U.S. GAAP, which assumes the continuity of the Company as a going concern. During
the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and in the prior fiscal years, the Company experienced,
and continues to experience, certain issues related to cash flow and profitability. These factors
raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The Company
completed a $10 million private placement of common stock, including additional investment rights
and warrants to a group of existing and new institutional investors on June 21, 2005. Management
will monitor the Companys cash position carefully and evaluate its future operating cash
requirements with respect to its strategy, business objectives and performance. The Company
completed the sale of the AdMission business unit to AdMission Corporation in the first quarter of
2005 (see Note 3). During the first two quarters of 2005, we incurred certain costs for accountant
and lawyer fees, buyout of an equipment lease and abandonment of an operating lease as a result of
the sale of the AdMission business unit.
The Companys operating results in 2005 will be dependent upon its ability to provide quality
products and services and is subject to the risk of an unfavorable lower demand for its products
and services. Management believes that the Company has sufficient cash reserves to meet its funding
needs for 2005. However, in order to reduce its cash burn, the Company may implement measures to
reduce operating costs, including a reduction in sales and marketing expenses, support and other
general and administrative expenses. The Company finished the first nine months of 2005 with
$11,221,030 in cash reserves (cash and cash equivalents of $9,746,444 and short-term investments of
$1,474,586).
Available cash reserves may be consumed in the sales and marketing of new products. Depending upon
the Companys ability to sell its new products, the timeliness of collection of accounts receivable
and other potential working capital needs, as well as the timing and rate of revenue growth and
Managements ability to control costs, the Company may require additional equity or debt financing
to meet future working capital or capital expenditure needs. There can be no assurance that such
additional financing will be available, or if available, that such financing can be obtained on
terms satisfactory to the Company. If the Company is not able to raise additional funds, it may be
required to significantly curtail its operations which would have an adverse effect on its
financial position, results of operations and cash flow. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On February 11, 2005, the Company and AdMission Corporation, a privately held Delaware corporation
(AdMission), closed the transactions under the asset purchase agreement dated January 11, 2005
between the parties (the Asset Purchase Agreement). Pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase
Agreement, IPIX sold to AdMission certain of its assets (including certain patent rights and other
intellectual property) and contracts relating to its IPIX AdMission business unit (the AdMission
Business). In consideration for the sale, IPIX received 1,035,000 shares of the Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock of AdMission and a warrant to purchase 200,000 shares of the Common
Stock of AdMission. Additionally, AdMission assumed certain liabilities associated with the
AdMission business unit. In accordance with FAS 144, the assets and liabilities related to the
AdMission business were classified as held for sale at December 31, 2004, and the operations of
this business unit were considered discontinued operations for each quarter and for each full year
presented. The preferred stock and warrant were recorded as an asset investment in AdMission and
subsequently written-down to zero. This write-down was based on Managements assessment of the fair
market value of the investment related to the carrying value of the asset which was based upon
AdMissions first quarter loss until the sale date and the marketability of the private companys
stock. The sale of assets and liabilities to AdMission consists of fixed assets of $253 thousand,
prepaid items of $62 thousand and deferred revenue of $62 thousand. The operating results of
AdMission for 2005 were also reclassified to discontinued operations. During the first quarter of
2005, the Company incurred non-cash compensation expenses of $794 thousand associated with the
acceleration of stock options related to the sale of the AdMission business unit. In connection
with the Asset Purchase Agreement, IPIX and AdMission entered into a Patent Purchase, License and
Repurchase Agreement dated as of February 11, 2005 which provides for the transfer to AdMission of
certain patents relating to the AdMission Business, the license of those patents back to IPIX for
use by IPIX in the conduct of its security sector business and certain other limited uses, and
repurchase right by IPIX in the event of certain triggering events by AdMission. The patent
agreement remains in effect until all of the patents transferred by the agreement expire. Patent
No. 6,732,162 issued March 4, 2004 Method of Providing Preprocessed Images for a Plurality of
Internet Web Sites expires November 15, 2019. An acquired application 09/357,836 was subsequently
issued on March 17, 2005 as patent No. 6,895,557 Web-based Media Submission Tool expires July 21,
2019. The agreement does not provide for any payment for the license of the patents. The Company
has no expectation of exercising its repurchase right of these patents as there is no present
indication that the triggering event will occur. IPIX and AdMission also entered into an IPIX
Trademark/Service Mark License Agreement which provides AdMission with an eighteen (18) month
royalty-free, nonexclusive license to use certain IPIX marks and certain other trademarks and
business brands in connection with the conduct of the AdMission Business.
Other than the obligation to provide AdMission with a license of certain IPIX marks and certain
other trademarks and business brands pursuant to the IPIX Trademark/Service Mark License Agreement,
the Company has no continuing obligations to AdMission.

shares of Series B Preferred Stock plus accumulated and unpaid dividends through date of conversion
were converted into 381,007 shares of common stock. We did not receive any

6. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common
stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding.
Net income (loss) available to common stockholders is calculated as the net income (loss) less
cumulative preferred stock dividends for the period. If dilutive, the participation right of the
preferred stock is reflected in the calculation of basic income (loss) per share using the if
converted method or the two class method, if more dilutive. Warrants, additional investment
rights and stock options could potentially dilute basic income per share in the future but were not
included in the computation of diluted loss per share because to do so would have been antidilutive
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004. For all periods presented herein,
the Companys diluted loss per share is equal to its basic loss per share because the effects of
exercise were anti-dilutive given the losses the Company incurred during such periods.

7. RESTRUCTURING
The Company recorded restructuring charges in accordance with FAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities and Staff Accounting Bulleting (SAB) No. 100,
Restructuring and Impairment Charges. During the first quarter of 2005, Management adopted a
restructuring plan to move the executive office from California to Virginia upon the sale of the
AdMission business unit. The plan comprised of terminating a lease for equipment, abandoning
certain fixed assets and vacating an additional operating lease. As a result, in the second quarter
of 2005, the Company paid a buy out fee of $747,053, which included penalties and a forfeited
deposit, to terminate the lease for the computer equipment and wrote off $11,452 of fixed assets.
In addition, a charge of $1,060,883 representing the present value of the future cash flows of the
abandoned leased office space was recorded as restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2005.
The Company paid $148,965 in the third quarter of 2005 for this lease.

At
September 30, 2005, the remaining balance in accrued restructuring was $931,325 of which,
$276,568 is classified as long-term restructuring liability and represents the present value of the
lease payments on the first and fourth floor San Ramon, California office lease. The leases end
January 31, 2007. Included in the restructuring liability is the present value of the lease
payments for the San Ramon, California office.

respectively, were made against the Companys lease and severance restructuring accrual.
8. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES
In December 2002 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (FAS) No. 148, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, an
amendment to FAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. FAS No. 148 amends the
disclosure provisions to require prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net loss of an
entitys accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based compensation. Stock options are
accounted for using the intrinsic method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, as interpreted, whereby if options are priced at fair
market value or above at the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. The pro forma
information is as follows:

Contingencies
On June 15, 2003, the Company filed an action against Mr. Ford Oxaal and his company,
Minds-Eye-View, (together, Oxaal) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
Tennessee. In the complaint, the Company asserted claims for patent infringement, false designation
of origin, false description or representation, unfair or deceptive acts and tortious interference
in connection with Oxaals competing software product marketed under the name Click Away. On
August 8, 2003, Oxaal filed its answer asserting counterclaims for non-infringement, invalidity,
unenforceability, breach of contract, patent misuse, Lanham Act violations and tortious
interference. The Company denied all of Oxaals allegations. The case was stayed pending settlement
negotiations, which have since terminated. On March 15, 2005, a motion was filed by the Company to
vacate the stay so that the lawsuit can proceed in due course.
On March 14, 2005, Grandeye, Ltd. filed suit against IPIX in the U.S. District Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia, Norfolk Division, seeking a declaratory judgment that (1) its Halocam
products do not infringe any valid claim of U.S. Patents No. 5,359,363 (the 363 patent),
6,603,502 B2 (the 502 patent), and Re 36,207 (the 207 patent); (2) these three patents are
invalid; and (3) these three patents are unenforceable as a result of inequitable conduct committed
during prosecution of the patent applications leading to the patents. Grandeye also asserted
various state law claims alleging damage to its business relationships as a result of alleged
statements and conduct of IPIX. Grandeye also included in its Complaint a claim for antitrust
violations but has since dismissed that antitrust claim with prejudice. IPIX has asserted
substantial defenses to Grandeyes claims and filed a counter-suit against Grandeye for
infringement of the 363 patent, 502 patent, and 207 patent. IPIX has vigorously defended, and
continues to defend, its positions. IPIX has filed a motion seeking summary judgment as to
Grandeyes state law claims, and Grandeye has filed a motion seeking a summary judgment that its
Halocam SP products do not infringe any claims of the 363 patent, 502 patent, or 207 patent.
The parties have opposed each others motions and both motions are scheduled to be heard by the
Court during a hearing scheduled to begin on November 7, 2005. In addition to hearing these
issues, the Court will hear arguments at the November 7, 2005 hearing on the parties positions
regarding the proper construction of terms in the three patents claims. Fact discovery in this
case was scheduled to close on October 28, 2005 and trial is scheduled to begin on April 6,
2006.
The Company intends to vigorously defend each of the above referenced lawsuits. Because of the
inherent uncertainties related to this type of litigation, the Company is unable to predict the
ultimate outcome of these cases, or the likelihood or amount of our potential liability, if any, of
these cases. However, if the Company is not successful in defending or settling these matters,
these cases could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company. The Company will incur substantial costs in defending
these lawsuits.
The Company is not currently a party to any other legal proceedings, the adverse outcome of which,
individually or in the aggregate, is believed could have a material adverse effect on the business,
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
11
Indemnification Provisions
During the ordinary course of business, in certain limited circumstances, the Company includes
indemnification provisions within certain of its contracts. Pursuant to these agreements, the
Company will indemnify, hold harmless and agree to reimburse the indemnified party for losses
suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, generally parties with which the Company has
commercial relations, in connection with certain intellectual property infringement claims by any
third party with respect to the Companys products and services. The Company discloses
indemnification liabilities according to FASB Staff Position FIN45-1, Accounting for Intellectual
Property Infringement Indemnifications under FAS Interpretation No. 45. To determine the amount of
indemnification liability to accrue, a probability analysis of potential outcomes based on past
claims and cost incurred is performed. To date, there have not been any costs incurred in
connection with such indemnification clauses; therefore, there is no accrual of such amounts at
September 30, 2005. Our insurance policies do not cover the cost of patent infringement claim
defense so if a claim was filed against the Company or any party we indemnify, we would incur legal
costs to vigorously defend our patents. Under FAS No. 5, Loss Contingencies, a claim would be
accrued when a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. At September 30, 2005,
no such amounts are accrued.
11. EFFECT OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2004, the FASB issued FAS No. 123 (R), Share-Based Payment to replace FAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees. FAS No. 123 (R) requires, among other things, that all share-based payments to
employees, including grants of stock options, be measured based on their grant-date fair value and
recognized as expense in the financial statements effective for interim or annual periods beginning
after June 15, 2005. Unless observable market prices exist, the grant-date fair value is estimated
using an appropriate option-pricing model as determined by Management. Management must also make
certain assumptions about employee exercise habits, forfeiture rates and select an appropriate
amortization methodology for recognizing compensation expense. The Statement requires a modified
prospective method of adoption. Companies may also elect to restate their previously issued
financial statements to provide consistency across all periods presented under a modified
retrospective method. Management believes the adoption of FAS No. 123(R) will have a material
impact on the Companys consolidated results of operations and earnings per share but has not yet
determined the method of adoption that will be applied or whether adoption will result in expense
amounts materially different from those currently provided under the pro forma disclosures (See
Note 8).
In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced the adoption of a new rule that
amends the effective date of FAS No. 123(R). The effective date of the new standard under these new
rules for our consolidated financial statements is January 1, 2006. Adoption of this statement will
have a significant impact on the consolidated results of operations and earnings per share as the
Company will be required to expense the fair value of stock option grants and stock purchases under
the employee stock purchase plan rather than disclose the impact on the Companys consolidated net
loss within the footnotes, as is the Companys current practice.
In June 2005, the FASB issued FAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement
of APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim
Financial Statements. The Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and
changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. FAS
154 requires retrospective application to prior periods financial statements of a voluntary change
in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. It is effective for accounting changes and
corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Earlier application
is permitted for accounting changes and corrections of errors made occurring in fiscal years
beginning after June 1, 2005. The Company does not expect the effect of FAS 154 will have material
impact on its financial statements.
12. SEGMENTS
In 2004, the Company focused on realigning its core competencies with its strategic business goals.
In 2005, the InfoMedia business unit, formerly responsible for the development, marketing and sales
of still immersive photography products, was integrated with the security business unit. The still
photography product teams now work closely with the video product teams leveraging mature
development processes and expertise; and the sales and marketing of both product lines is conducted
as a coordinated effort. In markets where customers benefit from combined products (video and
stills) in a single offering, this new structure allows IPIX to do so seamlessly. In addition, in
February 2005, we sold the AdMission business unit, which developed and sold products to the online
advertising market. (See Note 3) The result of this seamless integration is two product lines,
immersive video and immersive stills, with the following similar economic characteristics: the
nature of the products (immersive solutions), the production process and the type and class of
customers. As such, the Companys Management and chief operating decision maker reviews the results
of the business as a whole and does not evaluate the performance of any segment of the business,
therefore, there are no separate segments to report.
12
13. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to a concentration of credit risk consist of
cash, cash equivalents, short term investments and accounts receivable. Cash, cash equivalents and
short term investments are deposited with high quality financial institutions. The Companys
accounts receivable are derived from revenue earned from customers located in the U.S. and abroad.
Credit evaluations are performed on an ongoing basis of its customers financial condition and in
certain instances require partial or full payment prior to shipment; however, the Company does not
require collateral from its customers.
The following table summarizes the number of customers that individually comprise greater than 10%
of total revenue or total accounts receivable and their aggregate percentage of the Companys total
revenue or total accounts receivable:

On September 26, 2001, Image Investor Portfolio, a separate series of Memphis Angels, LLC (Image)
and certain strategic investors completed the purchase of 1,115,080 shares of the Series B
Preferred Stock for total consideration of $22,301,615. Each share of the Series B Preferred Stock
is convertible into approximately 9.2 shares of the Companys common stock and is entitled to vote
on matters submitted to holders of common stock on an as-converted basis. As of September 30, 2005,
248,967 shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding with a liquidation preference,
defined below, of $6,666,510, which includes $1,687,170 in accrued dividends in arrears on the
Series B Preferred Stock.
Holders of Series B Preferred Stock, in preference to holders of any other series of Preferred
Stock and in preference to the holders of Common
Stock (collectively, Junior Securities), accrue dividends at the rate of eight percent (8%) of
the price paid per annum on each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock (Series B
Dividends). The Series B Dividends are cumulative, accrue daily and shall be payable, when and if
declared by the Board, upon conversion or as an accretion to the liquidation preference, as defined
below. Accrued Series B Dividends may be paid in cash or common stock, at the election of the
Series B Preferred stockholder. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock participate on an as-if
converted basis in any common stock dividends. Upon any liquidation event, before any distribution
or payment shall be made to the holders of any Junior Securities, the holders of Series B Preferred
Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company legally available for
distribution, or the consideration received in such transaction, an amount per share of Series B
Preferred Stock equal to the price paid plus all accrued and unpaid Series B Dividends for each
share of Series B Preferred Stock held by them (the liquidation preference). If, upon any such
liquidation event, the assets of the Company are insufficient to make payment in full to all
holders of Series B Preferred Stock of the liquidation preference, then such assets shall be
distributed among the holders of Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, ratably in
proportion to the full amounts to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding and assessment of significant
changes and trends related to the results of operations and the financial condition of the Company
and its consolidated subsidiaries. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on
Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A. Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in
the statement of operations, including trends which might appear, are not necessarily indicative of
future operations.
OVERVIEW
Our Business
During the last quarter of 2004, a fundamental restructuring of the Company was undertaken in order
to position IPIX as the leader in immersive imaging technologies for visual intelligence
applications. The Company develops immersive video and still photography products for major markets
in surveillance, visual documentation and forensic analysis. This restructuring included the
merging of the InfoMedia and the Security business units and a change in sales structure which
broadened the Companys emphasis on direct sales and indirect sales channel development. The new
structure also enables the Company to develop product offerings that include both video and still
products for customers in the same market. IPIX has aligned its product lines with its core
competencies in immersive video and still technology. The restructuring was completed with the sale
of the AdMission business unit in February of 2005. In accordance with FAS 144, the assets and
liabilities related to the AdMission business unit were classified as held for sale at December 31,
2004, and the operations of this business unit were considered discontinued operations for all
periods presented.
Products
The Company currently has two main product lines: Immersive Video and Immersive Stills.
Immersive Video Product Line: develops and delivers products and services that provide customers
with enhanced situational awareness. The main product in this line is the CommandView Video. The
product line consists of multi-mega-pixel, digital cameras, fisheye lens, patented 360-degree
viewing technology and camera management software to provide a unique award-winning see
everything video surveillance and security camera system that can see in all directions,
simultaneously with no moving parts and no blind spots. Features include low light performance;
remote, secure monitoring; digital pan-tilt-zoom; and weather reliability.
Immersive Stills Product Line: provides for the creation of 360-degree panoramic photography and
movie content. The main product in this line is the Interactive Studio Still Photography product.
This product provides a single integrated solution for panorama photographers that can automate a
wide variety of tasks previously requiring separate tools. The technology in this product makes
creating multiple 360-degree images as simple as a drag-and-drop of fisheye source images into the
application, selecting the output file formats desired and hitting the save button. Features
include image editors, image format converter tools and high dynamic range image compositors.
Target Markets
The Company markets its immersive video and immersive stills products to government and commercial
markets for a variety of visual intelligence applications. We target government agencies with
responsibility for security infrastructure protection related to ports, harbors, waterways, dams,
conventional and nuclear power stations, utilities, airports and mass transit rail systems. Our
product offers solutions to the military in perimeter force protection, unmanned vehicles and
special operations. We also target commercial markets such as retail outlets and casinos. Our
products are used for facilities management as well as by vertical market data warehouse solutions
providers such as insurance and mapping. In addition, we historically have targeted the real estate
and hospitality market, professional photographers, web developers and creators of visual
documentation.
Business Models
We market our products through a direct sales force and through channel distributors and resellers.
Additionally, we sell our immersive stills software platform and supporting hardware over the
internet.
Business Trends and Conditions
In March 2004, the Company launched a new family of 360-degree real-time video camera systems.
Shipment of these products to distributors began in late June 2004. These new camera systems
generate revenues from sales to both end-users and resellers. In April 2005, the Company launched
the CommandView Day/Night Dome camera that combines 360-degree views in low-light, no-light and
infrared lighting-assisted environments. The Company continues to develop additional products and
features for the security and surveillance market. Also in April 2005 the Company announced an OEM
agreement with ObjectVideo to market software for intelligent video surveillance. In April 2005, a
partnership with VistaScape was announced to integrate their SiteIQ surveillance software with the
Companys CommandView cameras. These products became available for shipment in the third quarter
of 2005.
IPIX still photography products primarily generate revenues in two ways: licenses of software and
the sale of camera equipment. In the past, keys were utilized to license the Companys technology
to capture and save a single immersive image. With the launch of the IPIX Interactive Studio, IPIX
now offers time-based seats or user licenses which permit an unlimited number of immersive images
to be captured and saved within a specific time period, usually a year.
In response to the change in sales structure, the Company hired additional sales staff focused on
direct and channel sales to market immersive video products. The Company currently has
approximately 85 resellers in the U.S. and four distributors internationally.
The immersive still photography products for the virtual tour photography solution and the IPIX
Interactive Studio are sold directly to the U.S. real estate market. The Host@IPIX product is
being expanded to support a wider range of imaging technologies. As a result, the Company believes

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based
upon the Companys unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared
in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and
expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we
evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, uncollectible receivables,
inventory reserves, intangible and other long-lived assets and contingencies. We base our estimates
on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under
the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying
values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results
may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and
estimates used in the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements:
revenue recognition; valuation allowances, specifically the allowance for doubtful accounts and
inventory reserves; valuation of goodwill and other long-lived assets; and significant accruals. We
believe that full consideration has been given to all relevant circumstances that we may be subject
to, and our financial statements accurately reflect Managements best estimate of the results of
operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented.
Management has discussed the development and selection of the following critical accounting
policies, estimates and assumptions with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors and the
Audit Committee has reviewed these disclosures.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or
services have been rendered, the contract price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is
reasonably assured.
We derive revenue from sales of our hardware, sales of licenses and keys for our software and
professional services we provide to customers. Professional service revenues include effort
performed under government contracts. Formerly professional services consisted of transaction
hosting revenue where a reseller uses image management products to enhance their on-line offering.
Transaction hosting revenue was primarily performed by the AdMission business unit which was
discontinued in 2004 and sold in the first quarter of 2005.
Transaction hosting revenue (which is included in discontinued operations) was recognized ratably
as transactions were performed provided there was persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the fee
was fixed or determinable and collection of the resulting receivable was reasonably assured.
Hardware and software revenue is recognized upon shipment, if the contract shipping term is FOB
shipping point, and upon delivery, if the contract shipping term is FOB destination, provided there
are no uncertainties surrounding product acceptance, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
there are no significant vendor obligations, the fees are fixed or determinable and collection is
reasonably assured. Initial license fees are recognized when a contract exists, the fee is fixed or
determinable, software delivery has occurred and collection of the
receivable is reasonably assured. If there are continuing obligations, then license fees are
recognized ratably over the life of the contract. Revenue from hardware and software sales to
distributors is recognized upon shipment (sell-in) if the distributor relationship does not
create substantial uncertainty regarding fixed or determinable fees and collectibility. If at the
beginning of an arrangement we determine the arrangement fee is not, or is presumed to not be,
fixed or determinable, or there is uncertainty over collectibility, revenue is deferred and
subsequently recognized as amounts become due or collected.
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) No. 97-2, Software
Revenue Recognition and SOP No. 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition,
With Respect to Certain Transactions. If a contract requires significant production, modification
or customization of the software, the arrangement is accounted for as a long-term service contract.
If it does not, software revenue is realizable when the following criteria are met: persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the
sellers price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured.
Other criteria that must be met include the determination of whether the revenue in
multiple-element arrangements can be recognized separately for each element as performance occurs
and the determination of the fee based on vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value
for each element. The Company determines VSOE of fair value of each element by the price charged
when the same element is sold separately or based on Managements established prices for elements
such as professional rates on comparable service contracts or the price of software with the same
functionality available in the industry. If Management is unable to determine the VSOE of a
delivered element, the revenue is recognized by the residual method. As performance occurs, the fee
for the delivered item is determined by the total fee of the arrangement less the total fair value
of the undelivered elements. The total fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and
subsequently recognized as performance occurs. If Management is unable to determine the VSOE of an
undelivered element, all revenue from the contract is deferred until the VSOE is established or all
performance has occurred. If the only undelivered element without VSOE of fair value is services
that can be accounted for separately, the entire fee is recognized over the service period.
Our professional service revenue under government contracts consist primarily of services provided
by our employees, consultants and the pass through of costs for equipment or other third party
services. Cost of services consists primarily of compensation expenses for program personnel, the
fringe benefits associated with this compensation, consulting labor and other direct expenses
incurred to complete programs, including cost of equipment. The current government contract is a
cost-plus-fixed-fee contract. Revenues for cost-reimbursement contracts are recorded as
reimbursable costs are incurred, including a pro-rata share of the contractual fees.
The Company recognizes other professional service revenue from long-term service contracts in
accordance with Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 45, Long-Term Construction Type
Contracts, using the relevant guidance in SOP 81-1, Accounting for Performance of
Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts, as determined by the terms and conditions
of the Companys contracts with its customers. Revenue is typically recognized ratably over the
contractual periods or as services are performed. In addition, when professional service contracts
involve software that is essential to the functionality of the delivered software product, revenue
from the entire arrangement is recognized as services are performed on a percentage of completion
method or not until the contract is completed. In fixed price contracts, revenue is recognized
based on the percentage of completion method, income is recognized at a consistent profit margin
over the period of performance based on estimated profit margins at completion of the contract.
This method of accounting requires estimating the total revenues and total contract cost at
completion of the contract. Estimated losses on contracts at completion are recognized when
identified.

Allowances for Doubtful Accounts
Significant Management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with
establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts in any accounting period. Management specifically
analyzes accounts receivable and historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer
credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in the customer payment terms when
evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Material differences could result
in the amount and timing of expense recorded if Management had different judgment or utilized
different estimates as the latter related to different reporting periods.
Reserve for Inventory Obsolescence
Significant Management estimates must be made and used in conjunction with establishing the
inventory obsolescence reserve in any accounting period. This may occur as a result of
technological advances, out of production sub-assemblies, radical changes in market demand or
change of suppliers. Management periodically reviews the inventory aging, turnover, sales forecast
as well as input from vendors in determining the appropriate amount of the reserve.
Significant Accruals, including Restructuring Charges and Sales Tax
We recorded restructuring charges associated with vacated facilities. The key assumptions
associated with these charges include the timing and amount of sub-lease income. In addition, in
establishing and providing for sales tax accruals, we make judgments based on the actual tax laws
and guidance. While Management believes that its judgments and interpretations regarding tax
liabilities are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience may materially affect the
Companys future financial results.
Restructuring
The Company recorded restructuring charges in accordance with FAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities and Staff Accounting Bulleting (SAB) No. 100,
Restructuring and Impairment Charges. During the first quarter of 2005, Management adopted a
restructuring plan to move the executive office from California to Virginia upon the sale of the
AdMission business unit. The plan comprised of terminating a lease for equipment, abandoning
certain fixed assets and vacating an additional operating lease. As a result, in the second quarter
of 2005, the Company paid a buy out fee of $747,053, which included penalties and a forfeited
deposit, to terminate the lease for the computer equipment and wrote off $11,452 of fixed assets.
In addition, a charge of $1,060,883 representing the present value of the future cash flows of the
abandoned leased office space was recorded as restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2005.
The Company paid $148,965 in the third quarter of 2005 for this lease.
At
September 30, 2005, the remaining balance in accrued restructuring was $931,325 of which,
$276,568 is classified as long-term restructuring liability and represents the present value of the
lease payments on the first and fourth floor San Ramon, California office lease. The leases end
January, 31 2007. Included in the restructuring liability is the present value of the lease
payments for the San Ramon, California office.
The components of the restructuring charge in 2005 are as follows:

respectively, were made against the Companys lease and severance restructuring accrual.

REVENUE. The Company derives its revenue from product sales of its 360-degree technology sold as
licenses of software and hardware sales of camera equipment and from professional services. Total
revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2005 was $1,497,788, an increase of $32,402, or 2%
as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004. Revenue for the nine months ended
September 2005 of $3,598,820 increased by $644,624 or 22% over the prior year.
For the three months ended September 2005, hardware sales of the immersive video products decreased
to $396,428, a 45% decrease from the prior year. This decrease in 2005 reflects lower shipments
to the Companys UK distributor (NMI), whose exclusive distribution agreement was terminated during
the third quarter of 2005. NMI continues to operate under a non-exclusive distribution agreement
in the UK. The immersive video products sales increased to $1,412,831 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005, an increase of 25% over the same period the prior year. For the three and nine
month periods ended September 2005 hardware sales of the immersive stills products decreased to
$137,687, or 62% and $462,167 or 39%, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2004. The
Company has deemphasized sales of commercially available cameras which have low margin
opportunities. Hardware for the immersive stills product line consists of brand name cameras which
can be obtained from the brands major distributors at competitive prices.

Professional
services revenue for the third quarter and nine months of 2005
increased to $729,127
and $837,333, respectively, over the same period the prior year, for which there were no comparable
amounts. This increase is due to the efforts expended on the first phase of the $2.4 million
research contract from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to research and build
the worlds highest resolution video camera, as well as other professional services arising from a
commercial client. Professional services related to the immersive stills product line decreased to
$44,326 or 57%, in the current period as compared to the prior year and $85,269 or a decrease of
49% for the nine month period.
License and other revenue, primarily related to the immersive stills product line, decreased to
$190,220, or 32% for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the same period the
prior year. For the nine month period in 2005 license and other revenue decreased to $801,220, or
11%, over the same nine months of the prior year.
COST OF REVENUE. The Companys cost of revenue consists of cost of components and cost of assembly
for video and immersive cameras, internally developed software, licensed software, fulfillment and
shipping costs, customer and technical support, internet hosting fees, professional service
expenses and direct labor. Total cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2005 was
$1,112,584, an increase of $285,034 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004. The
cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 2005 of
$2,234,350, increased by $524,691 over
the prior year.
Hardware cost of revenue decreased 29% as compared to a 51% decrease in hardware revenue resulting
in a hardware gross margin for the three months ended
September 30, 2005 of (1)% as compared to 30%
for the same period in 2004. The decrease in hardware gross margin is due to an increase in lower
margin transactions of immersive video products. The margin on the video products was adversely
affected by a number of low margin transactions and inventory adjustments in the period which are
not anticipated to reoccur in future periods. Hardware cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 2005 decreased 1% as compared to a 1%
decrease in hardware revenue resulting in a hardware gross margin for the nine month period of 19%.
Hardware cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 2004 was also 19%.
The
increase in services cost of revenue over the same periods the prior year was due to the significant increase in the cost of
professional services, primarily for performance under the cost-plus-fixed-fee DARPA contract that
has low gross margin relative to revenue. The cost for professional services for the DARPA contract
is due primarily to direct labor and other direct purchased costs. The DARPA contract gross margin
is 8%.
Cost of license and other revenue in the third quarter 2005 decreased 53% from the same period 2004
which is greater than the 32% decrease in license and other revenue. For the nine month period of
2005, cost of license and other revenue decreased 66% from the same period 2004 versus an 11%
decrease in license and other revenue over the nine months of the prior year. This was the result,
in both periods, of improving revenue derived from our on-line store that has minimal variable cost
associated with this type of sale.
SALES AND MARKETING. Sales and marketing expenses of $1,905,456 increased by $732,986, or 63%,
during the quarter ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2004,
primarily due to additional marketing personnel and expenditures focused on building strong product
awareness for the immersive video product line. The increase consisted of employee salary, benefits
and recruitment and facility expenses related to the increase in our
sales force of $337,272 and an increase in
marketing, travel and trade show activities of $395,718. For the nine months ended September 2005,
sales and marketing expenses of $5,592,731 increased by $2,499,843 over the prior year. The
increase consisted of employee salary, benefits and recruitment and
facility expenses related to the increase in
our sales force and marketing personnel of $1,362,261 and an increase in marketing travel and trade
show activities of $1,137,584.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and
related benefits for administrative and executive staff, fees for outside professional services,
legal fees, insurance and other costs associated with being a public company.
General
and administrative expenses of $3,227,186 increased by $2,007,853 during the quarter ended
September 30, 2005 as compared with the quarter ended September 30, 2004 as a result of: an
increase in expenses of $131,883 incurred in association with compliance with public company
regulations, including Sarbanes-Oxley compliance; an increase in professional fees to lawyers of
$1,548,360 primarily due to patent litigation and financing activities; and an increase of $167,471
in director and officers insurance premiums due to increased coverage. In addition, facilities
expenses increased $213,744 due to an increase in rent of the new facilities in Tennessee and
Virginia and also an increase in depreciation from acquisitions of furniture and computer
equipment. For the nine months ended September 2005, general and administrative expenses of
$7,775,016 increased by $4,938,402 over the prior year as a result of: increase in headcount of
executive, administrative and information technology professionals resulting in an increase in
salaries, benefits, bonuses and related costs of $242,395; an increase in recruiting costs of
$127,327; an increase in expenses of $810,725 incurred in association with compliance with public
company regulations, including Sarbanes-Oxley compliance; an increase in professional fees to
lawyers of $2,189,052 primarily due to patent litigation and financing activities; and an increase
of $502,413 in director and officers insurance premiums due to increased coverage. In addition,
facilities expenses increased $669,172 due to an increase in rent of the new facilities in
Tennessee and Virginia and also an increase in depreciation from acquisitions of furniture and
computer equipment.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel costs
and consulting labor related to building and enhancing our digital media infrastructure and
immersive imaging technology.
Research and development expense for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2005 was $564,094 and $1,890,069, respectively. These expenses increased by $22,094 and $391,890 during
the respective periods as compared to the same periods ended September 30, 2004. The increases in
expenses are due to increases in head count of research and engineering personnel focused on the
integration of the IPIX IP camera into a variety of digital video recording (DVR) devices utilized
in the surveillance market that IPIX addresses and development of a three megapixil version of the
camera.
19
RESTRUCTURING CHARGES. In the first quarter of 2005, the Company entered into a plan to move
the executive office from California to Virginia upon the sale of the AdMission business unit which
comprised the following actions: termination of a lease for equipment, abandon certain fixed assets
and abandon an additional operating lease. As a result, in the second quarter of 2005, the Company
paid a buy out fee of $747,053, which included penalties and a forfeited deposit, to terminate the
lease for the computer equipment and wrote off $11,452 of fixed assets. In addition, a charge of
$1,060,883 representing the net present value of the abandoned leased office space was recorded as
restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2005. Restructuring charges were reduced by
$93,242, but increased $1,726,141, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2005.
LOSS ON
IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS. Loss on impairment of assets for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005
was $253,358. This amount was due to a write down to zero net book value of the investment which
was acquired as a result of the sale of the AdMission business unit in the first quarter of 2005
(see Note 3).
INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME, NET. Interest and other income for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005 was $31,259 and $175,251 as compared to $32,288 and $52,260 for the same periods
in 2004. This increase is primarily due to the sale of one of the Companys discontinued web domain
names during the first quarter of 2005 for which there is no such amount in 2004. In addition,
increased interest rates and higher balances for the period in cash and short-term investments also
caused an increase.
LOSS FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS. Loss from discontinued operations was $0 and $1,359,726,
respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $1,156,914 and
$3,902,447, respectively, for the same periods in 2004. This was due to the discontinued operations
of the Companys AdMission business unit which was classified as discontinued operations in the
fourth quarter of 2004 and sold in the first quarter of 2005. The prior period results were
reclassified to properly classify the business unit as discontinued operations.
NET LOSS. As a result of the factors described above, the net loss for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2005 was $5,187,031 and $17,057,326, respectively. This was an increase of
$1,766,438 and $7,023,995, respectively as compared to the same periods in 2004.

Cash flows from operating activities for the nine months ending September 30, 2005, reflect a net
loss of $17,057,326 as compared to a net loss of $10,033,331 for the same period ending September
30, 2004. The increase in net loss is primarily due to an increase in sales and marketing expenses
of $2.5 million for an expanded focus on building direct and channel sales, an increase in general
and administrative expenses of $4.9 million due to relocation of company headquarters, litigation
expense, and increased public company expenses to comply with legislation requiring documentation of internal controls, and fees associated with the sale of the AdMission business
unit. Also impacting the change in operating activities is a decrease
in inventory purchases and utilization as
compared to the prior year of $859,920, a reduction of prepaid expenses and other current assets of
$847,660 due to the reclassification of collateral held for a letter of credit to short term
investment and the release of assets held for sale relating to the discontinued operations and sale
of the AdMission business unit. The Company incurred non-cash compensation expenses of $818,747
associated with the acceleration of stock options primarily related to the sale of the AdMission
business unit which also impacted the change in operating activities.
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ending September 30, 2005 increased by
$647,704 compared with the same period ending September 30, 2004. The increase was primarily
related to the acquisition of computer software and hardware to support the increase in staffing
and to complete the build-out of a new computer and communication center in Oak Ridge, Tennessee
and Reston, Virginia. Restricted cash was released and partially invested in short-term
investments, increasing cash by $586,984.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ending September 30, 2005 was
primarily related to $9,758,750 of net proceeds from the private placement of common stock in June
2005 compared to $4,898,431 of net proceeds from a private placement of common stock in April 2004.
Offsetting the increase cash from private placement financings, the Company had a $2,976,590
decrease in net proceeds from the exercise of stock options from the nine months ended September
30, 2005 compared with the same period in 2004. As compared to the nine month period 2004, the
Company did not have similar exercise in the current year of warrants and Additional Investment
Rights resulting in lower cash proceeds of $8,247,351.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and in the prior fiscal years, the Company
experienced, and continues to experience, certain issues related to cash flow and profitability.
These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company completed a $10 million private placement of common stock, including additional
investment rights and warrants to a group of existing and new institutional investors on June 21,
2005. Management will monitor the Companys cash position carefully and evaluate its future
operating cash requirements with respect to its strategy, business objectives and performance. In
order to reduce its cash burn, the Company may implement measures to reduce operating costs,
including a reduction in sales and marketing expenses, support and other general and administrative
expenses. The Company finished the third quarter of 2005 with $11,221,030 in cash reserves (cash
and cash equivalents of $9,746,444 and short-term investments of $1,474,586).

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As of September 30, 2005, the Company had $11,221,030 of cash, cash equivalents, and short term
investments. Interest income is sensitive to changes in the general level of United States interest
rates, particularly since the majority of its investments are in short term instruments. Due to the
nature of the short term investments, the Company has concluded that there is not a material market
risk exposure.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Companys Management, with the participation
of the Companys chief executive officer and chief financial officer, have evaluated the
effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this
quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief
financial officer have concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were not
effective due to material weaknesses in the Companys internal control over financial reporting
which were set forth in Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.
Material weaknesses were identified in the following areas:
1. |
|
Period-end close process |
|
2. |
|
Purchases and accounts payable |
|
3. |
|
Inventory |
|
4. |

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting and Managements Remediation Initiatives. The
discussion below describes the planned and actual changes to the Companys internal control over
financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2004 and subsequent to December 31, 2004 that
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control
over financial reporting. As described in Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over
Financial Reporting, the Company identified material weaknesses in the Companys internal control
over financial reporting and, as described below, the Company has made, and plans to make, changes
to its internal control over financial reporting.
In response to the matters discussed in Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over
Financial Reporting, the Company plans to continue to review and make necessary changes to the
overall design of its control environment, including the roles and responsibilities of each
functional group within the organization and reporting structure, as well as policies and
procedures to improve the overall internal control over financial reporting. To document, test
internal controls and provide project management, the Company has retained the services of an
experienced consulting firm. The Company continues to document and
test its internal controls over financial reporting and remediate
control deficiencies it identifies as a result of this process. The Company has implemented, and plans to implement during 2005, the
specific measures described below to remediate the material weaknesses described in Managements
Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. The Company plans to continue to review
and make changes to its internal control environment as it deems appropriate or necessary to
remediate the material weaknesses described herein.
Period-End Close Process. To address these material weaknesses, the Company appointed a new chief
financial officer, a controller and an assistant controller in April, 2005. The new accounting team
has extensive background in auditing and reporting for public companies and has had additional
training to heighten awareness of generally accepted accounting principles. The Company has adopted
more rigorous policies and procedures regarding the review and approval process for complex
calculations and unusual transactions.
The Company implemented a periodic report checklist, which requires the signature of the controller
or Chief Financial Officer. The Company assigned to the assistant controller responsibility for
referencing the financial statements to supporting documentation and verifying the mathematical
accuracy of the financial statements prior to the filing of any periodic report. The Company plans
to adopt documentation and testing of controls to require the appropriate review and approval of
journal entries. Additionally, the chief financial officer and controller are required to review
all related party transactions and to note such review on the periodic report checklist.
As part of the reorganization of the Companys business, the Company has eliminated, in 2005, the
positions of business units general managers.
The Company utilizes the operational expertise of chief executive officer, chief financial officer
and controller to review significant fluctuations in expenses in order to ensure that the Companys
expenses are appropriately recorded and classified in the financial statements.
22
Purchases and Accounts Payable The Company has implemented internal controls related to wire
transfers and has documented and tested these controls during the third fiscal quarter of 2005. The
Company has implemented and plans to conduct testing of controls requiring that authorized check
signers adequately review supporting documentation during the check signing process and that
evidence of such process be maintained for future review. Controls to require monthly review of
accruals for accounts payable have been implemented and will be tested. Additionally, the Company
implemented controls requiring that an approved vendor list be maintained and reviewed periodically
by the chief financial officer or controller. The Company plans to document and test written
policies and procedures related to purchases and accounts payable.
Inventory Through December 2004, the Company remediated identified inventory-related control
deficiencies by implementing documentation to evidence controls relating to the approval of
inventory purchases, the proper receipt and accounting of inventory receipts, the reconciliation of
accounting records and inventory counts and the proper costing and valuation of inventory. The
Company plans to test these controls in order to obtain sufficient evidence about their operating
effectiveness. The Company will continue to evaluate these controls and may in the future implement
additional measures based on the results of such testing.
Receivables and Revenue The Company remediated identified receivables and revenue related control
deficiencies by implementing documentation of controls relating to the matters described in
Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Receivables and Revenue.
The Company plans to test these controls in order to obtain sufficient evidence about their
operating effectiveness. The Company will continue to evaluate these controls and may in the future
implement additional measures based on the results of such testing.
Information Technology To remediate the identified information technology related control
deficiencies, the Company implemented a security and backup recovery plan which will address each
of the control deficiencies described in Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over
Financial Reporting Information Technology. The Company will continue to evaluate these controls
and may in the future implement additional measures based on results of such testing.

historical fact. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause the
Companys actual results, performance or financial condition to be materially different from the
expectations of future results, performance or financial condition we express or imply in any
forward-looking statements.
The words believe, may, will, should, anticipate, estimate, expect, intends,
objective or similar words or the negatives of these words are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. We qualify any forward-looking statements entirely by these cautionary

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On June 15, 2003, the Company filed an action against Mr. Ford Oxaal and his company,
Minds-Eye-View, (together, Oxaal) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
Tennessee. In the complaint, the Company asserted claims for patent infringement, false designation
of origin, false description or representation, unfair or deceptive acts and tortious interference
in connection with Oxaals competing software product marketed under the name Click Away. On
August 8, 2003, Oxaal filed its answer asserting counterclaims for non-infringement, invalidity,
unenforceability, breach of contract, patent misuse, Lanham Act violations and tortious
interference. The
Company denied all of Oxaals allegations. The case was stayed pending settlement negotiations,
which have since terminated. On March 15, 2005, a motion was filed by the Company to vacate the
stay so that the lawsuit can proceed in due course.
On March 14, 2005, Grandeye, Ltd. filed suit against IPIX in the U.S. District Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia, Norfolk Division, seeking a declaratory judgment that (1) its Halocam
products do not infringe any valid claim of U.S. Patents No. 5,359,363 (the 363 patent),
6,603,502 B2 (the 502 patent), and Re 36,207 (the 207 patent); (2) these three patents are
invalid; and (3) these three patents are unenforceable as a result of inequitable conduct committed
during prosecution of the patent applications leading to the patents. Grandeye also asserted
various state law claims alleging damage to its business relationships as a result of alleged
statements and conduct of IPIX. Grandeye also included in its Complaint a claim for antitrust
violations but has since dismissed that antitrust claim with prejudice. IPIX has asserted
substantial defenses to Grandeyes claims and filed a counter-suit against Grandeye for
infringement of the 363 patent, 502 patent, and 207 patent. IPIX has vigorously defended, and
continues to defend, its positions. IPIX has filed a motion seeking summary judgment as to
Grandeyes state law claims, and Grandeye has filed a motion seeking a summary judgment that its
Halocam SP products do not infringe any claims of the 363 patent, 502 patent, or 207 patent.
The parties have opposed each others motions and both motions are scheduled to be heard by the
Court during a hearing scheduled to begin on November 7, 2005. In addition to hearing these
issues, the Court will hear arguments at the November 7, 2005 hearing on the parties positions
regarding the proper construction of terms in the three patents claims. Fact discovery in this
case was scheduled to close on October 28, 2005 and trial is scheduled to begin on April 6,
2006.
The Company intends to vigorously defend each of the above referenced lawsuits. Because of the
inherent uncertainties related to this type of litigation, the Company is unable to predict the
ultimate outcome of these cases, or the likelihood or amount of our potential liability, if any, of
these cases. However, if the Company is not successful in defending or settling these matters,
these cases could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company. The Company will incur substantial costs in defending
these lawsuits.
The Company is not currently a party to any other legal proceedings, the adverse outcome of which,
individually or in the aggregate, is believed could have a material adverse effect on the business,
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
