Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On November 14, 2012, the Company announced its results of operations for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012. A copy of the related press release is being filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA has been presented in order to assist in the analysis of the operating profitability of the Company because the Company believes this form of measurement eliminates the effects of non-operating expenses and non-cash charges. Management reviews this form of measurement monthly.

The information in this in Item 2.02 and Exhibit 99.1 attached to this Report shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information contained in Item 1.01 is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.06 Material Impairments.

On November 12, 2012, the Company conducted a supplemental impairment test of its goodwill in connection with the entry into the Forbearance Agreement (as more particularly described in Item 1.01 of this Report).

The Forbearance Agreement contains a condition requiring the Company to sell its ATM assets by February 2013. As a result of this condition, the Company determined that it cannot rely on the current estimated average high-end valuation of this asset, and, as such it was more appropriate to rely on the average metric valuation as the estimated valuation of the ATM assets. Therefore, according to generally accepted accounting principals, the Company will be recording a non-cash impairment charge to its goodwill of $3.2 million.
