PFSweb, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     PFSweb, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Supplies Distributors, Inc., and eCOST.com, Inc., are collectively referred to as the “Company;” “Supplies Distributors” refers to Supplies Distributors, Inc. and its subsidiaries; “eCOST” refers to eCOST.com, Inc.; and “PFSweb” refers to PFSweb, Inc. and its subsidiaries excluding Supplies Distributors and eCOST.
PFSweb Overview
     PFSweb is an international business process outsourcing provider of end-to-end eCommerce solutions to major brand name companies seeking to optimize their supply chain and to enhance their traditional and online business channels and initiatives in the United States, Canada, and Europe. PFSweb offers such services as professional consulting, technology collaboration, managed web hosting and internet application development, order management, web-enabled customer contact centers, customer relationship management, financial services including billing and collection services and working capital solutions, information management, facilities and operations management, kitting and assembly services, and international fulfillment and distribution services.
Supplies Distributors Overview
     Supplies Distributors, PFSweb and InfoPrint Solutions Company (“IPS”), a joint venture company owned by Ricoh and International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM”), have entered into master distributor agreements under which Supplies Distributors acts as a master distributor of various products, primarily IPS product.
     Supplies Distributors has obtained certain financing that allows it to fund the working capital requirements for the sale of primarily IPS products. Pursuant to the transaction management services agreements between PFSweb and Supplies Distributors, PFSweb provides to Supplies Distributors transaction management and fulfillment services such as managed web hosting and maintenance, procurement support, web-enabled customer contact center services, customer relationship management, financial services including billing and collection services, information management, and international distribution services. Supplies Distributors does not have its own sales force and relies upon IPS’ sales force and product demand generation activities for its sale of IPS products. Supplies Distributors sells its products in the United States, Canada and Europe.
     All of the agreements between PFSweb and Supplies Distributors were made in the context of a related party relationship and were negotiated in the overall context of PFSweb’s and Supplies Distributors’ arrangement with IPS. Although management believes that the terms of these agreements are generally consistent with fair market values, there can be no assurance that the prices charged to or by each company under these arrangements are not higher or lower than the prices that may be charged by, or to, unaffiliated third parties for similar services.
eCOST Overview
     eCOST is a multi-category online discount retailer of new, “close-out” and recertified brand-name merchandise, selling products primarily to customers in the United States. eCOST offers products in several merchandise categories, including computers, networking, electronics and entertainment, TV’s, monitors and projectors, cameras and camcorders, memory and storage, “For the Home” and sports and leisure. eCOST carries products from leading manufacturers such as Sony, JVC, Canon, Hewlett-Packard, Denon, Cuisinart, Sennheiser, Garmin, Panasonic, Toshiba and Microsoft.
     The Company’s liquidity has been negatively impacted as a result of the merger with eCOST. Since the merger, eCOST has experienced a net use of cash primarily due to operating losses. As a result, the Company has had to support eCOST’s cash needs with the goal of reducing losses. The amount of additional cash needed to support eCOST operations will depend upon working capital requirements, bank

Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
financing availability as well as eCOST’s continued ability to improve its financial results. Further advances to eCOST may be limited by the Company’s current cash and future cash flow and may be restricted by the Company’s credit facility obligations.
     In the event eCOST is unable to increase its revenue and/or gross profit from its present levels, it may fail to comply with one or more of the financial covenants required under its working capital line of credit. In such event, absent a waiver, the working capital lender would be entitled to accelerate all amounts outstanding thereunder and exercise all other rights and remedies, including sale of collateral and demand for payment under the Company parent guaranty. Any acceleration of the repayment of the credit facility would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and no assurance can be given that the Company would have the financial ability to repay all of such obligations.
     Management currently believes eCOST will meet the Company’s expectations related to improved overall profitability. If eCOST does not meet expectations to become profitable, the Company anticipates that it would be able to terminate or sublease eCOST’s facilities, liquidate remaining inventory through the eCOST website and reduce certain personnel related costs as needed so as to minimize any material impact upon the Company’s other segments.
Basis of Presentation
     The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2010, and for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and are unaudited. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. In the opinion of management and subject to the foregoing, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2010, its results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. Results of the Company’s operations for interim periods may not be indicative of results for the full fiscal year.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
     All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
     The preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The recognition and allocation of certain revenues and operating expenses in these consolidated financial statements also require management estimates and assumptions.
     Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be applicable and reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained and as the operating environment changes. These changes have been included in the consolidated financial statements as soon as they became known. In addition, management is periodically faced with uncertainties, the outcomes of which are not within its control and will not be known for prolonged periods of time. These uncertainties are discussed in this report and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 in the section entitled “Risk Factors.”

Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Based on a critical assessment of accounting policies and the underlying judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, management believes the Company’s consolidated financial statements are fairly stated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, and provide a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
Investment in Affiliates
     Priority Fulfillment Services, Inc. (“PFS”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PFSweb, Inc., has made advances to Supplies Distributors that are evidenced by a Subordinated Demand Note (the “Subordinated Note”). Under the terms of certain of the Company’s debt facilities, the outstanding balance of the Subordinated Note cannot be increased to more than $5.5 million or decreased to less than $4.3 million without prior approval of the Company’s lenders. As of both March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the outstanding balance of the Subordinated Note was $5.0 million. The Subordinated Note is eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     PFS has also made advances to eCOST, which aggregated $11.1 million as of March 31, 2010 and $10.9 million as of December 31, 2009. Certain terms of the Company’s debt facilities provide that the total advances to eCOST may not be less than $2.0 million without prior approval of eCOST’s lender. PFS has received the approval of its lender to advance incremental amounts subject to certain cash inflows to PFS, as defined, to certain of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates, including eCOST, if needed. PFSweb has also advanced to eCOST an additional $5.0 million as of both March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
Concentration of Business and Credit Risk
     The Company’s service fee revenue is generated under contractual service fee relationships with multiple client relationships. No service fee client or product revenue customers exceeded 10% of consolidated total net revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2010. A summary of the nonaffiliated customer and client concentrations is as follows:
                 
    Three Months Ended
    March 31,   March 31,
    2010   2009
Product Revenue (as a percentage of Product Revenue):
               
Customer 1
    11 %     13 %
 
               
Service Fee Revenue (as a percentage of Service Fee Revenue):
               
Client 1
    14 %     13 %
Client 2
    14 %     9 %
Client 3
    %     22 %
 
               
Accounts Receivable:
               
Client/Customer 1
    10 %     6 %
Client/Customer 2
    8 %     10 %
     Client 3 did not renew its contract with PFS effective January 2009, though certain project work continued to occur through April 2009. PFS currently operates three distinct geographical contract arrangements with Client 1, which are aggregated in the service fee revenue percentages reflected above. Client 1 has notified PFS that it is not renewing substantially all of its contracts with PFS which expire during 2010.
     PFSweb has provided certain collateralized guarantees of its subsidiaries’ financings and credit arrangements. These subsidiaries’ ability to obtain financing on similar terms would be significantly impacted without these guarantees.

     The Company has multiple arrangements with IBM and IPS and is dependent upon the continuation of such arrangements. These arrangements, which are critical to the Company’s ongoing operations, include Supplies Distributors’ master distributor agreements and certain of Supplies Distributors’ working capital financing agreements. Substantially all of the Supplies Distributors’ revenue is generated by its sale of product purchased from IPS. Supplies Distributors also relies upon IPS’ sales force and product demand generation activities and the discontinuance of such services would have a material impact upon Supplies Distributors’ business. In addition, Supplies Distributors has product sales to IBM and IPS business units and the Company has an IBM term master lease agreement.
     eCOST’s arrangements with its vendors are terminable by either party at will. Loss of any vendors could have a material adverse effect on eCOST’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Sales of HP and HP-related products represented 58% of eCOST’s net revenues (13% of the Company’s consolidated total net revenues) in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 42% of eCOST’s net revenues (10% of the Company’s consolidated total net revenues) in the comparable 2009 period.
Inventories
     The Company establishes inventory reserves based upon estimates of declines in values due to inventories that are slow moving or obsolete, excess levels of inventory or values assessed at lower than cost. Recoverability of the inventory on hand is measured by comparison of the carrying value of the inventory to the fair value of the inventory.
     Supplies Distributors assumes responsibility for slow-moving inventory under certain master distributor agreements, subject to certain termination rights, but has the right to return product rendered obsolete by engineering changes, as defined. In the event PFSweb, Supplies Distributors and IPS terminate the master distributor agreements, the agreements provide for the parties to mutually agree on a plan of disposition of Supplies Distributors’ then existing inventory.
Property and Equipment
     The Company’s property held under capital leases amounted to approximately $1.8 million and $2.1 million, net of accumulated amortization of approximately $7.1 million and $6.7 million, at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
Cash Paid for Interest and Taxes
     The Company made payments for interest of approximately $0.2 million and $0.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Income taxes of approximately $25,000 and $0.2 million were paid by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
     In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements — a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force to amend certain guidance in FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (ASC) 605, Revenue Recognition, 25, “Multiple-Element Arrangements”. The amended guidance in ASC 605-25 (1) modifies the separation criteria by eliminating the criterion that requires objective and reliable evidence of fair value for the undelivered item(s), and (2) eliminates the use of the residual method of allocation and instead requires that arrangement consideration be allocated, at the inception of the arrangement, to all deliverables based on their relative selling price.

Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
     The FASB also issued ASU 2009-14, Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements — a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, to amend the scope of arrangements under ASC 985, Software, 605, “Revenue Recognition” to exclude tangible products containing software components and non-software components that function together to deliver a product’s essential functionality.
     The amended guidance in ASC 605-25 and ASC 985-605 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early application and retrospective application permitted.

credit facility accrue interest, after a defined free financing period, at prime rate plus 0.5% (3.75% as of March 31, 2010). The facility also includes a monthly service fee. Given the structure of this facility and as outstanding balances, which represent inventory purchases, are repaid within twelve months, the Company has classified the outstanding amounts under this facility as accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets.

Additionally, PFS is required to maintain a Subordinated Note receivable balance from Supplies Distributors of no less than $4.3 million and may not maintain restricted cash of more than $5.0 million, and is restricted with regard to transactions with related parties, indebtedness and changes to capital stock ownership structure. Supplies Distributors has entered into blocked account agreements with its banks and Wachovia pursuant to which a security interest was granted to Wachovia for all U.S. and Canadian customer remittances received in specified bank accounts. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, these bank accounts held $0.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively, which was restricted for payment to Wachovia.
Loan and Security Agreement — PFS
     PFS has a Loan and Security Agreement (“Comerica Agreement”) with Comerica Bank (“Comerica”). The Comerica Agreement provides for up to $10.0 million of eligible accounts receivable financing through March 2011. As of March 31, 2010, PFS had $2.6 million of available credit under this facility. Borrowings under the Comerica Agreement accrue interest at a defined rate, which will generally be prime rate plus 2%, with a minimum of 4.5% (5.25% at March 31, 2010). The Comerica Agreement contains cross default provisions, various restrictions upon PFS’ ability to, among other things, merge, consolidate, sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans and payments to related parties (including entities directly or indirectly owned by PFSweb, Inc.), make capital expenditures, make investments and loans, pledge assets, make changes to capital stock ownership structure, as well as financial covenants of a minimum tangible net worth of $20 million, as defined, a minimum earnings before interest and taxes, plus depreciation, amortization and non-cash compensation accruals, if any, as defined, and a minimum liquidity ratio, as defined. The Comerica Agreement restricts the amount of the subordinated note receivable from Supplies Distributors to a maximum of $5.5 million. Comerica has provided approval for PFS to advance incremental amounts subject to certain cash inflows to PFS, as defined, to certain of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates, including eCOST, if needed. The Comerica Agreement is secured by all of the assets of PFS, as well as a guarantee of PFSweb, Inc.
Credit Facility — eCOST
     eCOST has an asset-based line of credit facility of up to $7.5 million from Wachovia, through May 2011, which is collateralized by substantially all of eCOST’s assets. Borrowings under the facility are limited to a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. Outstanding borrowings under the facility bear interest at rates ranging prime rate plus 0.75% to 1.25% or Eurodollar rate plus 3.0% to 4.0%, depending on eCOST’s financial results. There were no outstanding borrowings as of March 31, 2010. As of March 31, 2010, eCOST had $1.0 million of letters of credit outstanding and $1.3 million of available credit under this facility. In connection with the line of credit, eCOST entered into a cash management arrangement whereby eCOST’s operating amounts are considered restricted and swept and used to repay outstanding amounts under the line of credit. As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the restricted cash amount was $0.2 million in each period. The credit facility restricts eCOST’s ability to, among other things, merge, consolidate, sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans, investments and payments to subsidiaries, affiliates and related parties (including entities directly or indirectly owned by PFSweb, Inc.), make investments and loans, pledge assets, make changes to capital stock ownership structure, and requires a minimum tangible net worth of $0 million, as defined. PFSweb has guaranteed all current and future obligations of eCOST under this line of credit.

Factoring Agreement
     Supplies Distributors’ European subsidiary has a factoring agreement with Fortis Commercial Finance N.V. (“Fortis”) to provide factoring for up to 7.5 million euros (approximately $10.1 million as of March 31, 2010) of eligible accounts receivables through March 2011. As of March 31, 2010, Supplies Distributors’ European subsidiary had approximately 0.7 million euros (approximately $0.9 million as of March 31, 2010) of available credit under this agreement. Borrowings accrue interest at Euribor plus 1.2% (1.6% at March 31, 2010). This agreement contains various restrictions upon the ability of Supplies Distributors’ European subsidiary to, among other things, merge, consolidate and incur indebtedness, as well as financial covenants, such as minimum net worth. This agreement is secured by a guarantee of Supplies Distributors, up to a maximum of 200,000 euros.
Taxable Revenue Bonds
     PFS has a Loan Agreement with the Mississippi Business Finance Corporation (the “MBFC”) in connection with the issuance by the MBFC of MBFC Taxable Variable Rate Demand Limited Obligation Revenue Bonds, Series 2004 (Priority Fulfillment Services, Inc. Project) (the “Bonds”). The MBFC loaned the proceeds of the Bonds to PFS for the purpose of financing the acquisition and installation of equipment, machinery and related assets located in one of the Company’s Southaven, Mississippi distribution facilities. The Bonds bear interest at a variable rate (0.5% as of March 31, 2010), as determined by Comerica Securities, as Remarketing Agent. PFS, at its option, may convert the Bonds to a fixed rate, to be determined by the Remarketing Agent at the time of conversion.
     The primary source of repayment of the Bonds is a letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) issued by Comerica pursuant to a Reimbursement Agreement between PFS and Comerica under which PFS is obligated to pay to Comerica all amounts drawn under the Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit has a maturity date of April 2011 at which time, if not renewed or replaced, will result in a draw on the undrawn face amount thereof. If the Letter of Credit is renewed or replaced, the Bonds require future annual principal repayments of $800,000 in January of 2011 and 2012. PFS’ obligations under the Reimbursement Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of PFS, including restricted cash of $0.7 million and a Company parent guarantee.
Debt Covenants
     To the extent the Company or any of its subsidiaries fail to comply with covenants applicable to its debt or vendor financing obligations, including the monthly financial covenant requirements and required level of shareholders’ equity or net worth, and one or all of the lenders accelerate the repayment of the credit facility obligations, the Company would be required to repay all amounts outstanding thereunder. In particular, in the event eCOST is unable to increase its revenue and/or gross profit from its present levels, or if PFS service fee revenue declines from expected levels and it is unable to reduce costs to correspond to such reduced revenue levels or if Supplies Distributors revenue or gross profit declines from expected levels, such events may result in a breach of one or more of the financial covenants required under its working capital line of credit. In such event, absent a waiver, the working capital lender would be entitled to accelerate all amounts outstanding thereunder and exercise all other rights and remedies, including sale of collateral and demand for payment under the Company parent guaranty. Any acceleration of the repayment of the credit facilities would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and no assurance can be given that the Company would have the financial ability to repay all of such obligations. As of March 31, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.
Master Lease Agreements
     The Company has a Term Lease Master Agreement with IBM Credit Corporation (“Master Lease Agreement”) that provides for leasing or financing transactions of equipment and other assets, which generally have terms of three years. The amounts outstanding under this Master Lease Agreement ($1.3 million as of March 31, 2010 and $1.6 million as of December 31, 2009) are secured by the related equipment.

The amounts outstanding under these agreements were $0.8 million and $0.9 million as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, and are secured by the related equipment.
     The Company has other leasing and financing agreements and will continue to enter into those arrangements as needed to finance the purchasing or leasing of certain equipment or other assets. Borrowings under these agreements are generally secured by the related equipment.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
     The Company receives municipal tax abatements in certain locations. During 2004 the Company received notice from a municipality that it did not satisfy certain criteria necessary to maintain the abatements. In December 2006, the Company received notice that the municipal authority planned to make an adjustment to the Company’s tax abatement. The Company has disputed the adjustment as of March 31, 2010, but if the dispute is not resolved favorably, additional property taxes of approximately $1.7 million could be assessed against the Company.
     Pursuant to the terms of certain contractual agreements with certain of eCOST’s vendors, the vendor has the right to inspect and audit eCOST’s books and records relating to sales of such vendor’s products to verify eCOST’s compliance with any terms and conditions imposed by such vendor upon the resale of such products. Under certain circumstances, eCOST may be subject to certain contractual defined liabilities and obligations in the event the results of such audit determine noncompliance by eCOST with such terms and conditions. In April 2010, an audit was conducted by an eCOST vendor to determine compliance by eCOST with such vendor’s terms and conditions. As of the date of this Report, eCOST has not received the results of such audit or any further information from such vendor. No assurance can be given that the results of such audit, or any claim asserted by the vendor in connection therewith, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
     In April 2010, a sales employee of eCOST was charged with violating various federal criminal statutes in connection with the sales of eCOST products to certain customers, and approximately $620,000 held in an eCOST deposit account was seized and turned over to the Office of the U.S. Attorney in connection with such activity. Shortly thereafter, the Company received a subpoena from the Office of the U.S. Attorney requesting information regarding the employee and other matters, and the Company provided such information and is fully cooperating with the Office of the U.S. Attorney. The Company has commenced its own investigation into the actions of the employee. Neither the Company nor eCOST has been charged with any criminal activity, and eCOST intends to seek the recovery or reimbursement of the funds. Based on the information available to date, eCOST is unable to determine the amount of the loss, if any, relating to the seizure of such funds. No assurance can be given, however, that the seizure of such funds, or the inability of eCOST to recover such funds or any significant portion thereof, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
     The Company is subject to claims in the ordinary course of business, including claims of alleged infringement by the Company or its subsidiaries of the patents, trademarks and other intellectual property rights of third parties. In particular, eCOST and other manufacturers, distributors and retailers of consumer electronic and computer products, may be subject to claims of patent holders alleging that the manufacture, distribution and sale of such products infringe their patents. eCOST, together with other manufacturers, distributors and retailers, is currently the subject of two such claims. The Company does not believe such claims will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

     The following discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
Forward-Looking Information
     We have made forward-looking statements in this Report on Form 10-Q.

    relationship with and our guarantees of certain of the liabilities and indebtedness of our subsidiaries;
 
    taxation on the sale of our products;
 
    eCOST’s ability to maintain existing and build new relationships with manufacturers and vendors and the success of its advertising and marketing efforts;

     We have based these statements on our current expectations about future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee you that these expectations actually will be achieved. In addition, some forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions as to future events that may not prove to be accurate. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expected or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.
Overview
     We are an international business process outsourcing provider of end-to-end eCommerce solutions. We provide these solutions to major brand name companies seeking to optimize their supply chain and to enhance their traditional and online business channels and initiatives. Through our eCOST.com® business unit, we are also a leading multi-category online discount retailer of new, “close-out” and recertified brand-name merchandise. We derive our revenues from three business segments: eCommerce and business process outsourcing, master distribution and an online discount retailing.
     First, in our eCommerce and business process outsourcing segment, we derive our revenues from a broad range of services, including professional consulting, technology collaboration, order management, managed web hosting and web development, the development of an eCommerce technology platform, customer relationship management, financial services including billing and collection services and working capital solutions, kitting and assembly services, information management and international fulfillment and distribution services. We offer our services as an integrated solution, which enables our clients to outsource their complete infrastructure needs to a single source and to focus on their core competencies. Our distribution services are conducted at warehouses that we lease or manage and include real-time inventory management and customized picking, packing and shipping of our clients’ customer orders. We currently offer the ability to provide infrastructure and distribution solutions to clients that operate in a range of vertical markets, including technology manufacturing, computer products, cosmetics, fragile goods, contemporary home furnishings, apparel, aviation, telecommunications and consumer electronics, among others.
     In this eCommerce and business process outsourcing segment, we do not own the underlying inventory or the resulting accounts receivable, but provide management services for these client-owned assets. We typically charge our service fee revenue on a cost-plus basis, a percent of shipped revenue basis or a per-transaction basis, such as a per-minute basis for web-enabled customer contact center services and a per-item basis for fulfillment services. Additional fees are billed for other services. We price our services based on a variety of factors, including the depth and complexity of the services provided, the amount of capital expenditures or systems customization required, the length of contract and other factors.
     Many of our service fee contracts involve third-party vendors who provide additional services such as package delivery. The costs we are charged by these third-party vendors for these services are often passed on to our clients. Our billings for reimbursements of these and other ‘out-of-pocket’ expenses include travel, shipping and handling costs and telecommunication charges are included in pass-through revenue.
     Our second business segment is a product revenue model. In this segment, we are a master distributor of product for IPS and certain other clients. In this capacity, we purchase, and thus own, inventory and recognize the corresponding product revenue. As a result, upon the sale of inventory, we own the accounts receivable. Freight costs billed to customers are reflected as components of product revenue. This business segment requires significant working capital requirements, for which we have senior credit facilities to provide for approximately $89 million of available financing.
     Our third business segment is a web-commerce product revenue model focused on the sale of products to a broad range of consumer and small business customers. In this segment we operate as a multi-category online discount retailer of new, “close-out” and recertified brand-name merchandise. Our product line currently offers approximately 280,000 products in several primary merchandise categories, primarily including computers, networking, electronics and entertainment, TV’s, monitors and projectors, cameras and camcorders, memory and storage, “For the Home” and sports and leisure.

Table of Contents

     Growth is a key element to achieving our future goals, including achieving and maintaining sustainable profitability. Growth in our eCommerce and business process outsourcing segment is driven by two main elements: new client relationships and organic growth from existing clients. We focus our sales efforts on larger contracts with brand-name companies within two primary target markets, online brands and retailers and technology manufacturers, which, by nature, require a longer duration to close but also have the potential to be higher-quality and longer duration engagements.
     Growth within our product revenue business is primarily driven by our ability to attract new master distributor arrangements with IPS or other manufacturers and the sales and marketing efforts of the manufacturers and third party sales partners.
     Growth within our web-commerce product revenue model is primarily driven by eCOST’s ability to increase sales by generating organic growth, attracting new customers and expanding its product line.
     We continue to monitor and control our costs to focus on profitability. While we are targeting our new service fee contracts to yield increased gross profit, we also expect to incur incremental investments to implement new contracts, investments in infrastructure and sales and marketing to support our targeted growth and increased public company professional fees.
     Our expenses comprise primarily four categories: 1) cost of product revenue, 2) cost of service fee revenue, 3) cost of pass-through revenue and 4) operating expenses.
     Cost of product revenues — consists of the purchase price of product sold and freight costs, which are reduced by certain reimbursable expenses. These reimbursable expenses include pass-through customer marketing programs, direct costs incurred in passing on any price decreases offered by vendors to cover price protection and certain special bids, the cost of products provided to replace defective product returned by customers and certain other expenses as defined under the master distributor agreements. Vendor marketing programs, such as co-op advertising, also reduce cost of product revenue.
     Cost of service fee revenue — consists primarily of compensation and related expenses for our web-enabled customer contact center services, international fulfillment and distribution services and professional consulting services, and other fixed and variable expenses directly related to providing services under the terms of fee based contracts, including certain occupancy and information technology costs and depreciation and amortization expenses.
     Cost of pass-through revenue — the related reimbursable costs for pass-through expenditures are reflected as cost of pass-through revenue.
     Operating expenses — consist primarily of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses such as compensation and related expenses for sales and marketing staff, advertising, online marketing and catalog production, distribution costs (excluding freight) applicable to the Supplies Distributors and eCOST businesses, executive, management and administrative personnel and other overhead costs, including certain occupancy and information technology costs and depreciation and amortization expenses.

     Product Revenue, net. eCOST product revenue was $20.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010, a 3.8% decrease as compared to $20.9 million in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to the continued impact of the current economic environment.
     Supplies Distributors product revenue of $45.5 million increased $0.2 million, or 0.4%, in the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the same quarter of the prior year.
     Service Fee Revenue. Service fee revenue of $16.0 million decreased $1.1 million, or 6.7%, in the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the same quarter of the prior year. The decrease in service fee revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2010 is primarily due to the non-renewal of certain service contract relationships, including the non-renewal of a U.S. government agency client relationship, which ended in early 2009, partially offset by increased service fees generated from new service contract relationships. The change in service fee revenue is shown below ($ millions):

Table of Contents

     The service fee revenue for the current year period includes approximately $2 million of revenue generated from clients who have given notice of their intent to terminate their contractual relationship with the Company during 2010.
     Cost of Product Revenue. The gross margin for eCOST was $1.8 million or 8.9% of product revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and $2.1 million or 9.8% of product revenue during the comparable period of 2009. The decline in gross margin is primarily due to a decrease in sales from within the higher margin business to consumer sales channel. We are targeting an increasing percentage of eCOST revenues to be generated from the business-to-consumer channel, although we continue to strive to improve our product sales and gross margin in our business-to-business channel.
     Supplies Distributors cost of product revenue increased by $0.3 million, or 0.8%, to $42.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily as a result of increased product sales. The resulting gross profit margin was $3.2 million, or 7.7% of product revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and $3.4 million, or 7.5% of product revenue, for the comparable 2009 period. The three month periods ending March 31, 2010 and 2009 include the impact of certain incremental gross margin earned on product sales resulting from certain product price increases and the impact of certain incremental inventory cost reductions.
     Cost of Service Fee Revenue. Gross profit as a percentage of service fees was 28.3% in the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to 33.9% in the same period of the prior year. The margin in the prior year period includes the benefit of three months of higher margin incremental project work associated with the U.S. government contract relationship that was not renewed and was completed in the second quarter of 2009.
     We target to earn an overall average gross profit of 25-30% on existing and new service fee contracts, but we have and may continue to accept lower gross margin percentages on certain contracts depending on contract scope and other factors.
     Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 decreased $0.4 million to $10.3 million from $10.7 million in the same 2009 period. As a percentage of total net revenue, operating expenses were 11.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 12.0% in the prior year period.
     Income Taxes. We recorded a tax provision associated primarily with state income taxes and our subsidiary Supplies Distributors’ Canadian and European operations. A valuation allowance has been provided for the majority of our net deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, which are primarily related to our net operating loss carryforwards, and certain foreign deferred tax assets. We expect that we will continue to record an income tax provision associated with state income taxes and Supplies Distributors’ Canadian and European results of operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
     Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, and primarily resulted from a decrease in inventories of $2.8 million, a $1.9 million decrease in accounts receivable and cash income before working capital changes of $0.7 million partially offset by a $4.5 million decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities.
     Net cash provided by operating activities was $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, and primarily resulted from cash income before working capital changes of $2.0 million and an $11.2 million decrease in accounts receivable, partially offset by a $6.9 million decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities.
     Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 totaled $0.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively, resulting from capital expenditures.

20


Table of Contents

     Capital expenditures have historically consisted primarily of additions to upgrade our management information systems, development of customized technology solutions to support and integrate with our service fee clients, and general expansion and upgrades to our facilities, both domestic and foreign. We expect to incur capital expenditures to support new contracts and anticipated future growth opportunities. Based on our current client business activity and our targeted growth plans, we anticipate our total investment in upgrades and additions to facilities and information technology services for the upcoming twelve months will be approximately $4 to $7 million, although additional capital expenditures may be necessary to support the infrastructure requirements of new clients. To maintain our current operating cash position, a portion of these expenditures may be financed through client reimbursements, debt, operating or capital leases or additional equity. We may elect to modify or defer a portion of such anticipated investments in the event we do not obtain the financing or achieve the financial results necessary to support such investments.
     Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing a decrease in restricted cash partially offset by payments on debt and capital lease obligations.
     Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, primarily representing payments on debt and capital lease obligations.
     Our liquidity has been negatively impacted as a result of the merger with eCOST. Since the merger, eCOST has experienced a net use of cash primarily due to operating losses. As a result, PFSweb has had to support eCOST’s cash needs with the goal of reducing operating losses. The amount of further cash needed to support eCOST operations will depend upon the financing available as well as eCOST’s ability to improve its financial results. eCOST’s results, excluding the impact of any non-cash impairment charges, have improved in recent years, and we expect continued improvement as a result of efforts to increase sales, improve product mix and further improve operational efficiencies.
     Our liquidity has also been negatively impacted by a decline in service fee revenue due to the current general economic decline as well as the nonrenewal of a U.S. government agency contract and certain other client contracts. To help minimize the impact of lower service fee revenue, we have implemented certain measures that reduced variable costs and expenses and redeployed existing infrastructure to other client activities. No assurance can be given that a further decline in service fee revenue will not have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations.
     During the three months ended March 31, 2010, our working capital decreased to $17.0 million from $19.3 million at December 31, 2009 partially due to the paydown of debt facilities along with the impact of certain technology and development costs incurred during 2010 that were prepaid by certain clients in 2009. Working capital as of December 31, 2009 included the benefit from certain clients paying implementation fees in 2009 applicable to technology and development costs that we are incurring in 2010. To obtain additional financing in the future, in addition to our current cash position, we plan to evaluate various financing alternatives including the sale of equity, utilizing capital or operating leases, borrowing under our credit facilities, expanding our current credit facilities, entering into new debt agreements or transferring to third parties a portion of our subordinated loan balance due from Supplies Distributors. In conjunction with certain of these alternatives, we may be required to provide certain letters of credit to secure these arrangements. We currently believe our cash position, financing available under our credit facilities and funds generated from operations (including cost reductions related to the nonrenewal or termination of one or more service fee contracts) will satisfy our presently known operating cash needs, our working capital and capital expenditure requirements, our current debt and lease obligations, and additional loans to our subsidiaries Supplies Distributors and eCOST, if necessary, for at least the next twelve months.
     During the past two years, the credit markets and the financial services industry have been experiencing a period of unprecedented turmoil and upheaval characterized by the bankruptcy, failure, collapse or sale of various financial institutions and an unprecedented level of intervention from the United States and foreign governments. While the ultimate outcome of these events cannot be predicted, they may have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and our ability to renew our credit facilities.

     In support of certain debt instruments and leases, as of March 31, 2010, we had $1.3 million of cash restricted for repayment to lenders. In addition, as described above, we have provided collateralized guarantees to secure the repayment of certain of our subsidiaries’ credit facilities. Many of these facilities include both financial and non-financial covenants, and also include cross default provisions applicable to other credit facilities and agreements. These covenants include minimum levels of net worth for the individual borrower subsidiaries and restrictions on the ability of the borrower subsidiaries to advance funds to other borrower subsidiaries. As a result, it is possible for one or more of these borrower subsidiaries to fail to meet their respective covenants even if another borrower subsidiary otherwise has available excess funds, which, if not restricted, could be used to cure the default. To the extent we fail to comply with our debt covenants, including the monthly financial covenant requirements and our required level of shareholders’ equity, and the lenders accelerate the repayment of the credit facility obligations, we would be required to repay all amounts outstanding thereunder. In particular, in the event eCOST is unable to increase its revenue and/or gross profit from its present levels, or if PFS service fee revenue declines from expected levels and it is unable to reduce costs to correspond to such reduced revenue levels or if Supplies Distributors revenue or gross profit declines from expected levels, such events may result in a breach of one or more of the financial covenants required under its working capital lines of credit. In such event, absent a waiver, the working capital lender would be entitled to accelerate all amounts outstanding thereunder and exercise all other rights and remedies, including sale of collateral and payment under our parent guaranty. A requirement to accelerate the repayment of the credit facility obligations would have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations. We can provide no assurance that we will have the financial ability to repay all of such obligations. As of March 31, 2010, we were in compliance with all debt covenants. Further, any non-renewal of any of our credit facilities would have a material adverse impact on our business and financial condition. We do not have any other material financial commitments, although future client contracts may require capital expenditures and lease commitments to support the services provided to such clients.
     In the future, we may attempt to acquire other businesses or seek an equity or strategic partner to generate capital or expand our services or capabilities in connection with our efforts to grow our business. Acquisitions involve certain risks and uncertainties and may require additional financing. Therefore, we can give no assurance with respect to whether we will be successful in identifying businesses to acquire or an equity or strategic partner, whether we or they will be able to obtain financing to complete a transaction, or whether we or they will be successful in operating the acquired business.
     To finance their distribution of IPS products, Supplies Distributors and its subsidiaries have short-term credit facilities with IBM Credit LLC (“IBM Credit”) and IBM Belgium Financial Services S.A. (“IBM Belgium”). We have provided a collateralized guaranty to secure the repayment of these credit facilities. These asset-based credit facilities provided financing for up to $30.5 million and up to 16 million euros (approximately $21.6 million as of March 31, 2010) with IBM Credit and IBM Belgium, respectively. These agreements expire in April 2011.
     Supplies Distributors also has a loan and security agreement with Wachovia Bank, N.A. (“Wachovia”) to provide financing for up to $25 million of eligible accounts receivables in the United States and Canada. The Wachovia facility expires on the earlier of March 2011 or the date on which the parties to the IPS master distributor agreement no longer operate under the terms of such agreement and/or IPS no longer supplies products pursuant to such agreement.
     Supplies Distributors’ European subsidiary has a factoring agreement with Fortis Commercial Finance N.V. (“Fortis”) to provide factoring for up to 7.5 million euros (approximately $10.1 million as of March 31, 2010) of eligible accounts receivables through March 2011.
     These credit facilities contain cross default provisions, various restrictions upon the ability of Supplies Distributors and its subsidiaries to, among other things, merge, consolidate, sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans, investments and payments to related parties (including entities directly or indirectly owned by PFSweb, Inc.), provide guarantees, make investments and loans, pledge assets, make changes to capital stock ownership structure and pay dividends, as well as financial covenants, such as cash flow from operations, annualized revenue to working capital, net profit after tax to revenue, minimum net worth and

Table of Contents

total liabilities to tangible net worth, as defined, and are secured by all of the assets of Supplies Distributors, as well as a collateralized guaranty of PFSweb. Additionally, we are required to maintain a subordinated loan to Supplies Distributors of no less than $4.3 million, not maintain restricted cash of more than $5.0 million, are restricted with regard to transactions with related parties, indebtedness and changes to capital stock ownership structure and a minimum shareholders’ equity of at least $18.0 million. Furthermore, we are obligated to repay any over-advance made to Supplies Distributors or its subsidiaries under these facilities if they are unable to do so. We have also provided a guarantee of the obligations of Supplies Distributors and its subsidiaries to IBM and IPS, excluding the trade payables that are financed by IBM credit.
     Our subsidiary, Priority Fulfillment Services, Inc. (“PFS”), has a Loan and Security Agreement (“Agreement”) with Comerica Bank (“Comerica”), which provides for up to $10 million of eligible accounts receivable financing through March 2011. We entered this Agreement to supplement our existing cash position, and provide funding for our current and future operations, including our targeted growth. The Agreement contains cross default provisions, various restrictions upon our ability to, among other things, merge, consolidate, sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans and payments to subsidiaries, affiliates and related parties (including entities directly or indirectly owned by PFSweb, Inc.), make capital expenditures, make investments and loans, pledge assets, make changes to capital stock ownership structure, as well as financial covenants of a minimum tangible net worth of $20 million, as defined, a minimum earnings before interest and taxes, plus depreciation, amortization and non-cash compensation accruals, if any, as defined, and a minimum liquidity ratio, as defined. The agreement also limits PFS’ ability to increase the subordinated loan to Supplies Distributors to more than $5.5 million and permits PFS to advance incremental amounts subject to certain cash inflows to PFS, as defined, to certain of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates, including eCOST. The Agreement is secured by all of the assets of PFS, as well as a guarantee of PFSweb.
     eCOST currently has an asset-based line of credit facility of up to $7.5 million with Wachovia, which is collateralized by substantially all of eCOST’s assets and expires in May 2011. Borrowings under the facility are limited to a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and letter of credit availability is limited to a percentage of accounts receivable and inventory. As of March 31, 2010, eCOST had $1.0 million of letters of credit outstanding and $1.3 million of available credit under this facility. The credit facility restricts eCOST’s ability to, among other things, merge, consolidate, sell assets, incur indebtedness, make loans, investments and payments to subsidiaries, affiliates and related parties, make investments and loans, pledge assets, make changes to capital stock ownership structure, as well as a minimum tangible net worth of $0 million, as defined. PFSweb has guaranteed all current and future obligations of eCOST under this line of credit.
     We financed certain capital expenditures through a Loan Agreement with the Mississippi Business Finance Corporation (the “MBFC”) pursuant to which the MBFC issued MBFC Taxable Variable Rate Demand Limited Obligation Revenue Bonds, Series 2004 (Priority Fulfillment Services, Inc. Project) (the “Bonds”). The MBFC loaned PFS the proceeds of the Bonds for the purpose of financing the acquisition and installation of equipment, machinery and related assets to support incremental business from a Southaven, Mississippi distribution facility. The primary source of repayment of the Bonds is a letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) issued by Comerica pursuant to a Reimbursement Agreement between us and Comerica under which PFS is obligated to pay to Comerica all amounts drawn under the Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit has a maturity date of April 2011 at which time, if not renewed or replaced, will result in a draw on the undrawn face amount thereof. The amount outstanding on this Loan Agreement as of March 31, 2010 was $1.6 million. PFS’ obligations under the Reimbursement Agreement are secured by substantially all of its assets, including restricted cash of $0.7 million and a Company parent guarantee.
     eCOST has historically incurred significant operating losses and used cash to fund its operations. As a result, we have been required to invest cash to fund eCOST’s operations, which we may not be able to continue to do without approval from our lenders. The amount of further cash needed to support eCOST operations depends upon the financing available under its credit line as well as eCOST’s ability to improve its financial results. Through March 31, 2010, we have advanced $16.0 million to eCOST to fund eCOST’s cash flow requirements and have lender approval to advance incremental amounts subject to certain cash inflows to PFS, as defined, to certain of our subsidiaries and/or affiliates, including eCOST. In the event we need to invest further cash to eCOST, we may be required to seek approval from our lenders to provide

23


Table of Contents

such funds. We can provide no assurance that we will receive such approval from our lenders or any terms or conditions required by our lenders in order to obtain such approval. In addition, PFSweb has provided a guaranty of eCOST’s bank line of credit and certain eCOST vendor trade payables.
     We receive municipal tax abatements in certain locations. During 2004 we received notice from a municipality that we did not satisfy certain criteria necessary to maintain the abatements. In December 2006, we received notice that the municipal authority planned to make an adjustment to our tax abatement. We have disputed the adjustment as of March 31, 2010, but if the dispute is not resolved favorably, additional property taxes of approximately $1.7 million could be assessed against us.
     Pursuant to the terms of certain contractual agreements with certain of eCOST’s vendors, the vendor has the right to inspect and audit eCOST’s books and records relating to sales of such vendor’s products to verify eCOST’s compliance with any terms and conditions imposed by such vendor upon the resale of such products. Under certain circumstances, eCOST may be subject to certain contractual defined liabilities and obligations in the event the results of such audit determine noncompliance by eCOST with such terms and conditions. In April 2010, an audit was conducted by an eCOST vendor to determine compliance by eCOST with such vendor’s terms and conditions. As of the date of this Report, eCOST has not received the results of such audit or any further information from such vendor. No assurance can be given that the results of such audit, or any claim asserted by the vendor in connection therewith, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
     In April 2010, a sales employee of eCOST was charged with violating various federal criminal statutes in connection with the sales of eCOST products to certain customers, and approximately $620,000 held in an eCOST deposit account was seized and turned over to the Office of the U.S. Attorney in connection with such activity. Shortly thereafter, the Company received a subpoena from the Office of the U.S. Attorney requesting information regarding the employee and other matters, and the Company provided such information and is fully cooperating with the Office of the U.S. Attorney. The Company has commenced its own investigation into the actions of the employee. Neither the Company nor eCOST has been charged with any criminal activity, and eCOST intends to seek the recovery or reimbursement of the funds. Based on the information available to date, eCOST is unable to determine the amount of the loss, if any, relating to the seizure of such funds. No assurance can be given, however, that the seizure of such funds, or the inability of eCOST to recover such funds or any significant portion thereof, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
Seasonality
     The seasonality of our service fee business is dependent upon the seasonality of our clients’ business and sales of their products. Accordingly, our management must rely upon the projections of our clients in assessing quarterly variability. We believe with our current client mix and their current business volumes, our run rate service fee business activity will be at its lowest in the quarter ended March 31. We anticipate our Supplies Distributors’ product revenue will be highest during the quarter ended December 31. Our eCOST business is moderately seasonal, reflecting the general pattern of peak sales for the retail industry during the holiday shopping season. Typically, a larger portion of our eCOST revenues occur during the fourth fiscal quarter. We believe our historical revenue growth makes it difficult to predict the effect of seasonality on our future revenues and results of operations.
     We believe that results of operations for a quarterly period may not be indicative of the results for any other quarter or for the full year.
Inflation
     Management believes that inflation has not had a material effect on our operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
     A description of our critical accounting policies, including goodwill and long-lived assets, is included in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements in our December 31, 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
     We maintain a system of controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of the financial statements and other disclosures included in this report, as well as to safeguard assets from unauthorized use or disposition. We evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer. Based upon the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic Securities and Exchange Commission filings. No significant changes were made to our internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
     There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(f) or Rule 15-d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended March 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
     In April 2010, a sales employee of eCOST was charged with violating various federal criminal statutes in connection with the sales of eCOST products to certain customers, and approximately $620,000 held in an eCOST deposit account was seized and turned over to the Office of the U.S. Attorney in connection with such activity. Shortly thereafter, the Company received a subpoena from the Office of the U.S. Attorney requesting information regarding the employee and other matters, and the Company provided such information and is fully cooperating with the Office of the U.S. Attorney. The Company has commenced its own investigation into the actions of the employee.

Based on the information available to date, eCOST is unable to determine the amount of the loss, if any, relating to the seizure of such funds. No assurance can be given, however, that the seizure of such funds, or the inability of eCOST to recover such funds or any significant portion thereof, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
     In addition to the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2010, our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected by any or all of the following factors.
Risks Related to All Our Business Segments
Our business and future growth depend on our continued access to bank and commercial financing. The current economic crisis may negatively impact our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
     During the past two years, the credit markets and the financial services industry have been experiencing a period of unprecedented turmoil and upheaval characterized by the bankruptcy, failure, collapse or sale of various financial institutions and an unprecedented level of intervention from the United States and foreign governments. An uncertain or recessed economy could also adversely impact our customers’ operations or ability to maintain liquidity which may negatively impact our business and results of operations.
     Our business and future growth currently depend on our ability to access bank and commercial lines of credit. We currently depend on an aggregate of approximately $108 million in line of credit facilities provided by various banks and commercial lenders. These lines of credit currently mature at various dates through May 2011 and are secured by substantially all our assets. Our ability to renew our lines of credit facilities depends upon various factors, including the availability of bank loans and commercial credit in general, as well as our financial condition and prospects. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that these credit facilities will continue to be available beyond their current maturities on reasonable terms or at all. Our inability to renew or replace our credit facilities or find alternative financing would materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow.
We operate with significant levels of indebtedness and are required to comply with certain financial and non-financial covenants; we are required to maintain a minimum level of subordinated loans to our subsidiary Supplies Distributors; and we have guaranteed certain indebtedness and obligations of our subsidiaries Supplies Distributors and eCOST.
     As of March 31, 2010, our total credit facilities outstanding, including debt, capital lease obligations and our vendor accounts payable related to financing of IPS product inventory, was approximately $50.7 million. Certain of the credit facilities have maturity dates in calendar year 2011, but are classified as current liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. We cannot provide assurance that our credit facilities will be renewed by the lending parties. Additionally, these credit facilities include both financial and non-financial covenants, many of which also include cross default provisions applicable to other agreements. These covenants also restrict our ability to transfer funds among our various subsidiaries, which may adversely affect the ability of our subsidiaries to operate their businesses or comply with their

respective loan covenants. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to maintain compliance with these covenants. Any non-renewal or any default under any of our credit facilities would have a material adverse impact upon our business and financial condition. In addition we have provided $5.0 million of subordinated indebtedness to Supplies Distributors as of March 31, 2010. The maximum level of this subordinated indebtedness to Supplies Distributors that may be provided without approval from our lenders is $5.5 million. The restrictions on increasing this amount without lender approval may limit our ability to comply with certain loan covenants or further grow and develop Supplies Distributors’ business. We have guaranteed most of the indebtedness of Supplies Distributors. Furthermore, we are obligated to repay any over-advance made to Supplies Distributors by its lenders to the extent Supplies Distributors is unable to do so. We have also guaranteed eCOST’s $7.5 million credit line, as well as certain of its vendor trade payables. We currently expect that it may be necessary to provide additional guarantees of certain eCOST vendor trade payables in the future.
Risks Related to Our PFS and Supplies Distributors Operating Segments
Our business is subject to the risk of customer and supplier concentration.
     For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, a technology company, a consumer products company and a U.S. government agency represented the source of approximately 14%, 14% and 0%, respectively, and approximately 13%, 9% and 22%, respectively, of our total service fee revenue, excluding pass-through revenue. Our activity under our contract with the U.S. government agency concluded in the second quarter of 2009. PFS currently operates three distinct geographical contract arrangements with the technology company which are aggregated in the service fee revenue percentages above. The technology company has notified PFS that it is not renewing substantially all of its contracts with PFS which expire in 2010. The non-renewal of these contracts has had, and may continue to have, a material adverse effect upon our business.
     A substantial portion of our Supplies Distributors product revenue is generated by sales of product purchased under master distributor agreements with IPS. These agreements are terminable at will and no assurance can be given that IPS will continue the master distributor agreements with Supplies Distributors. Supplies Distributors does not have its own sales force and relies upon IPS’ sales force and product demand generation activities for its sale of IPS product. Discontinuance of such activities would have a material adverse effect on Supplies Distributors’ business and our overall financial condition.
     Sales by Supplies Distributors to three customers accounted for, in the aggregate, approximately 40% and 39% of Supplies Distributors’ total product revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (21% and 20% of our consolidated net revenues in each three month period, respectively). The loss of any one or all of such customers, or non-payment of any material amount by these or any other customer, are likely to have a material adverse effect upon Supplies Distributors’ business.
We subcontract a portion of our client services to third parties, and we are subject to various risks and liabilities if such subcontractors do not provide the subcontracted services or provide them in a manner which does not meet required service levels.
     We currently, and may in the future, subcontract to one or more third parties a portion of our end-to-end solution service offering. Although our end-to-end solution service clients generally approve in advance the designation of the subcontractor and its provision of the subcontracted services, under the terms of our contracts with our end-to-end solution service clients, we remain liable to provide such subcontracted services and may be liable for the actions and omissions of such subcontractors. In certain instances, our end-to-end solution service clients prepay in advance a portion of the service fees payable in respect of the subcontracted services, and, under certain circumstances, including our breach or the breach by our subcontractor of our or their respective obligations, we are liable to refund all or a portion of such prepaid fees. Consequently, in the event our subcontractor fails to provide the subcontracted services in compliance with required services levels, or otherwise breaches its obligations, or discontinues its business, whether as the result of bankruptcy, insolvency or otherwise, we may be required to provide such services at a higher cost to us and may otherwise be liable for various costs and expenses related to such event. In addition, any such failure may damage our reputation and otherwise result in a material adverse affect upon our business and financial condition.

Risks Related to eCOST, our Online Discount Retailer Segment
Our business is subject to the risk of supplier concentration.
     Our business is dependent on sales of Hewlett Packard (HP) and HP-related products, which represented approximately 58% of eCOST’s net revenues (13% of our consolidated net revenues) in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 42% of eCOST’s net revenues (10% of our consolidated net revenues) in the comparable period of 2009. If our ability to purchase direct from HP is terminated or restricted, or if the demand for HP and HP-related products declines, our business will be materially adversely affected.
Our business is subject to various contingencies, including a vendor audit and an investigation related to possible criminal activities by a sales employee which may have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and results of operations.
     Pursuant to the terms of certain contractual agreements with certain of eCOST’s vendors, the vendor has the right to inspect and audit eCOST’s books and records relating to sales of such vendor’s products to verify eCOST’s compliance with any terms and conditions imposed by such vendor upon the resale of such products. Under certain circumstances, eCOST may be subject to certain contractual defined liabilities and obligations in the event the results of such audit determine noncompliance by eCOST with such terms and conditions. In April 2010, an audit was conducted by an eCOST vendor to determine compliance by eCOST with such vendor’s terms and conditions. To date, eCOST has not received the results of such audit or any further information from such vendor. No assurance can be given that the results of such audit, or any claim asserted by the vendor in connection therewith, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
     In April 2010, a sales employee of eCOST was charged with violating various federal criminal statutes in connection with the sales of eCOST products to certain customers, and approximately $620,000 held in an eCOST deposit account was seized and turned over to the Office of the U.S. Attorney in connection with such activity. Shortly thereafter, the Company received a subpoena from the Office of the U.S. Attorney requesting information regarding the employee and other matters, and the Company provided such information and is fully cooperating with the Office of the U.S. Attorney. The Company has commenced its own investigation into the actions of the employee. Neither the Company nor eCOST has been charged with any criminal activity, and eCOST intends to seek the recovery or reimbursement of the funds. Based on the information available to date, eCOST is unable to determine the amount of the loss, if any, relating to the seizure of such funds. No assurance can be given, however, that the seizure of such funds, or the inability of eCOST to recover such funds or any significant portion thereof, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Stock
Our stock price could decline if a significant number of shares become available for sale.
     As of March 31, 2010, we have an aggregate of 1.8 million stock options outstanding to employees, directors and others with a weighted average exercise price of $4.74 per share. The shares of common stock that may be issued upon exercise of these options may be resold into the public market. Sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market as a result of the exercise of these options, or the perception that future sales of these shares could occur, could reduce the market price of our common stock and make it more difficult to sell equity securities in the future.

IBM Credit LLC
EIGHTH AMENDED AND RESTATED
NOTES PAYABLE SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT
IBM CREDIT LLC
North Castle Drive
Armonk, NY 10504
Ladies and/or Gentlemen:
     This Eighth Amended and Restated Notes Payable Subordination Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Seventh Amended and Restated Notes Payable Subordination Agreement dated March 27, 2009 executed by Priority Fulfillment Services, Inc., (“PFS”). Supplies Distributors, Inc., with its principal place of business at 500 North Central Expressway, Plano, TX 75074 (“SDI”), is/may become further indebted to PFS. PFS represents that no part of said indebtedness has been assigned to or subordinated in favor of any other person, firm or corporation, other than pursuant to the Notes Payable Subordination Agreement, dated as of March 29, 2002 by and between PFS and Wachovia Bank, National Association (formerly known as Congress Financial Corporation (Southwest)) (“Wachovia”) (“Notes Payable Subordination Agreement”) and that PFS does not hold any security therefor. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Financing Agreement referred to below.
     To induce IBM Credit LLC (“IBM Credit”) to continue financing SDI under the terms of the Agreement for Inventory Financing dated March 29, 2002 with SDI (as amended, modified, and supplemented from time to time, the “Financing Agreement”) and in consideration of any loans, advances, payments, extensions or credit (including the extension or renewal, in whole or in part, of any antecedent or other debt), benefits or financial accommodations heretofore or hereafter made, granted or extended by IBM Credit or which IBM Credit has or will become obligated to make, grant or extend to or for the account of SDI whether under the Financing Agreement or otherwise, and in consideration of any obligations heretofore or hereafter incurred by SDI to IBM Credit, whether under the Financing Agreement or otherwise, PFS agrees to make the payment of the indebtedness referred to in the first paragraph hereof and any and all other present or future indebtedness of SDI to PFS together with any and all interest accrued thereon (collectively the “Secondary Obligations”) subject and subordinate to the prior indefeasible payment in full of any and all debts, obligations and liabilities of SDI to IBM Credit, whether absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising and whether direct or acquired by IBM Credit by transfer, assignment or otherwise (collectively the “Primary Obligations”) and that SDI shall make no payments to PFS until the Primary Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full as acknowledged in writing by IBM Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SDI may make payments in respect of the Secondary Obligations provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default exists immediately prior to the payment of the Secondary Obligations and that no Default or Event of Default will occur after any payment in respect of the Secondary Obligations and, (ii) any such payment shall not cause the total amount of the Secondary Obligations to be less than Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000.00), and (iii) such payment would be permitted under the Notes Payable Subordination Agreement. Except as provided above, PFS agrees not to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive payment or security for all or any part of the Secondary Obligations until and unless all of the Primary Obligations shall have been fully paid and discharged.
     Upon any distribution of any assets of SDI whether by reason of sale, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, arrangement, bankruptcy, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors, foreclosure or otherwise, IBM Credit shall be entitled to receive payment in full of the Primary Obligations prior to the payment of any part of the Secondary Obligations. To enable IBM Credit to enforce its rights hereunder in any such proceeding or upon the happening of any such event, IBM Credit or any person whom IBM Credit may from time to time designate is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact for PFS with full power to act in the place and stead of PFS including the right to make, present, file and vote proofs of claim against SDI on account of all or any part of said Secondary Obligations as IBM Credit may deem
SDI Eighth NP SUB Amend

advisable and to receive and collect any and all payments made thereon and to apply the same on account of the Primary Obligations. PFS will execute and deliver to such instruments as IBM Credit may require to enforce each of the Secondary Obligations, to effectuate said power of attorney and to effect collection of any and all dividends or other payments which may be made at any time on account thereof.
     While this instrument remains in effect, PFS will not assign to or subordinate in favor of any other person, firm or corporation, (except for Wachovia subject to terms of the Intercreditor Agreement dated the date thereof between Wachovia and IBM Credit) any right, claim or interest in or to the Secondary Obligations or commence or join with any other creditor in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding against SDI. IBM Credit may at any time, in its discretion, renew or extend the time of payment of all or any portion of the Primary Obligations or waive or release any collateral which may be held therefor and IBM Credit may enter into such agreements with SDI as IBM Credit may deem desirable without notice to or further assent from PFS and without adversely affecting IBM Credit’s rights hereunder in any manner whatsoever.
     In furtherance of the foregoing and as collateral security for the payment and discharge in full of any and all of the Primary Obligations, PFS hereby transfers and assigns to IBM Credit the Secondary Obligations and all collateral security therefor to which PFS now is or may at any time be entitled and all rights under all guarantees thereof and agrees to deliver to IBM Credit endorsed in blank all notes or other instruments now or hereafter evidencing said Secondary Obligations. IBM Credit may file one or more financing statements concerning any security interest hereby created without the signature of PFS appearing thereon.
     The within instrument is and shall be deemed to be a continuing subordination and shall be and remain in full force and effect until all Primary Obligations have been performed and paid in full and IBM Credit’s commitment, if any, under the Financing Agreement has been terminated.

Exhibit 10.6
PFSweb, Inc. 2010 Management Bonus Plan
     WHEREAS, PFSweb, Inc. (the “Company”) has adopted and authorized the PFSweb, Inc. 2005 Employee Stock and Incentive Plan (the “Plan;” terms defined in the Plan having the same meaning when used herein); and
     WHEREAS, the Plan provides for the issuance of Performance-Based Cash Awards to be paid upon achievement of such performance goals as the Committee establishes, from time to time, with regard to such Awards; and
     WHEREAS, the Committee has determined it is in the best interests of the Company to adopt this 2010 Management Bonus Plan (the “Bonus Plan”) to set forth the performance goals for the issuance of Performance-Based Cash Awards under the Plan for fiscal year 2010;
     NOW, THEREFORE, the Committee hereby adopts, authorizes and approves the following:
     I. Purpose and Terms of the Bonus Plan:
     A. The Bonus Plan has been established by the Committee pursuant to the Plan to attract, motivate, retain, and reward the Company’s chief executive officer and other executive officers, officers and senior management for assisting the Company in achieving its operational goals through exceptional performance.
     B. Under the terms of the Bonus Plan, Performance-Based Cash Awards, if any, will be awarded to the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers, officers and senior management based on, and subject to, the achievement of the following performance goal. The performance goal shall be for the Company to exceed during the 2010 fiscal year, on a quarterly basis, the corresponding projected quarterly adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock based compensation, and impairment charges contained in the Company’s 2010 annual budget (or, in case of a budgeted operating loss, to reduce the operating loss below the budgeted operating loss) (“Adjusted EBITDA”).
     C. Subject to the limitation set forth in II.A. below, the maximum aggregate amount to be awarded for any quarter shall be equal to the sum of the following: (i) fifty percent (50%) of the first Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) in amount by which the Adjusted EBITDA for such quarter exceeded the budgeted Adjusted EBITDA for such quarter (the “Excess EBITDA”) up to a maximum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.000), plus (ii) if the amount of Excess EBITDA for such quarter exceeds Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00), twenty percent (20%) of the amount of such excess.
     II. Determination of Performance-Based Cash Awards:
     A. The total bonus amount (the “Bonus Pool Amount”) under clauses (i) and (ii) of Section I.C. above for each quarter shall not exceed Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00). The determination of Adjusted EBITDA, Excess EBITDA and the Bonus Pool


 

Amount shall be determined on an individual quarter by quarter basis and the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA shall be made without giving effect to the award or payment of Performance Based Cash Awards hereunder.
     B. Following the end of each quarter, the Committee shall grant Performance-Based Cash Awards in an aggregate amount to be determined by it, but not to exceed the amount set forth in II.A. above, and shall allocate and award such Performance-Based Cash Awards to the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers, officers and senior management based on the Committee’s determination of the relative contribution of each such person. The Committee shall have sole discretion in determining the individuals to whom Performance-Based Cash Awards are to be granted and the amounts thereof. The Chief Executive Officer shall not be present for the Committee’s deliberations concerning any Performance-Based Cash Award to be awarded to him, but he shall be present and shall advise the Committee regarding the Performance-Based Cash Awards to be awarded to the other executive officers, officers and senior management.
     C. Performance-Based Cash Awards shall be paid as soon as practicable following the Committee’s determination and designation thereof. Each recipient of a Performance-Based Cash Award shall be responsible for the payment of all federal and state income taxes arising upon his or her receipt thereof.
     D. The Committee reserve the right to modify this Bonus Plan and performance goal at any time, and the adoption of this Bonus Plan does not limit the ability of the Committee to award other Awards under the Plan nor does it restrict the ability of the Company to pay or provide for the payment of any compensation to any person.
     E. Any Performance Based Cash Award paid hereunder shall be subject to recoupment by the Company to the extent, and in the amount, required by applicable law.
     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, being all the members of the Committee, have adopted and authorized the foregoing as of the 27th day of April, 2010.
