RISK FACTORS

        Our business is subject to many risks and uncertainties, which may affect our future financial performance. If any of the events or circumstances described below occurs, our business and financial performance could be harmed, our actual results could differ materially from our expectations and the market value of our securities could decline. The risks and uncertainties discussed below are not the only ones we face. There may be additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently do not believe are material that may harm our business and financial performance. You should consider carefully these risk factors, together with all of the other information in this prospectus and the documents we have incorporated by reference in the section “Where You Can Find More Information,” before you decide to purchase shares of our common stock.

Risks Associated with Our Subsidiaries

Many of our titles have short lifecycles and fail to generate significant revenues.

        The market for entertainment software is characterized by short product lifecycles and frequent introduction of new products. Many software titles do not achieve sustained market acceptance or do not generate a sufficient level of sales to offset the costs associated with product development. A significant percentage of the sales of new titles generally occurs within the first three months following their release. Therefore, our continued profitability depends upon our ability to acquire and sell new, commercially successful titles and to replace revenues from titles in the later stages of their lifecycles. Any competitive, financial, technological or other factor which delays or impairs our ability to introduce and sell our software could adversely affect our future operating results.

We may fail to anticipate changing consumer preferences.

        Our business is speculative and is subject to all of the risks generally associated with the entertainment software industry, which has been cyclical in nature and has been characterized by periods of significant growth followed by rapid declines. Our future operating results will depend on numerous factors beyond our control, including:

  •   the popularity, price and timing of new software and hardware platforms being released and distributed by us and our competitors;

  •   international, national and regional economic conditions, particularly economic conditions adversely affecting discretionary consumer spending;

  •   changes in consumer demographics;

  •   the availability of other forms of entertainment; and

  •   critical reviews and public tastes and preferences, all of which change rapidly and cannot be predicted.

        In order to plan for acquisition and promotional activities, we must anticipate and respond to rapid changes in consumer tastes and preferences. A decline in the popularity of entertainment software or particular platforms could cause sales of our titles to decline dramatically.

We may not be able to protect our proprietary rights.

        We acquire proprietary software and technologies. We attempt to protect our software and production related intellectual property under copyright, trademark and trade secret laws as well as through contractual restrictions on disclosure, copying and distribution.

4

        Entertainment software is susceptible to unauthorized copying. Unauthorized third parties may be able to copy or to reverse engineer our software to obtain and use programming or production techniques that we regard as proprietary. In addition, our competitors could independently develop technologies substantially equivalent or superior to our technologies.

We may be subject to intellectual propriety claims.

        As the number of entertainment software products increases and the features and content of these products continue to overlap, software developers increasingly may become subject to infringement claims. Many of our products are highly realistic and feature materials that are based on real world examples, which may inadvertently infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others. Our products often utilize complex technology that may become subject to the intellectual property rights of others. Although we believe that we make reasonable efforts to ensure that our products do not violate the intellectual property rights of others, it is possible that third-parties still may claim infringement. From time to time, we receive communications from third-parties regarding such claims. Existing or future infringement claims against us, whether valid or not, may be time consuming and expensive to defend.

  •   Intellectual property litigation or claims could force us to do one or more of the following:

  •   cease selling, incorporating or using products or services that incorporate the challenged intellectual property;

  •   obtain a license from the holder of the infringed intellectual property, which if available at all, may not be available on commercially favorable terms; or

  •   redesign the effected entertainment software products, which could cause us to incur additional costs, delay introduction and possibly reduce commercial appeal of our products. Any of these actions may cause material harm to our business and financial results.

Rating systems for entertainment software, potential legislation and consumer opposition could inhibit sales of our products.

        The home video game industry requires entertainment software publishers to provide consumers with information relating to graphic violence or sexually explicit material contained in software titles. Certain countries have also established similar rating systems as prerequisites for sales of entertainment software in such countries. We believe that we comply with such rating systems and display the ratings received for our titles. Our software titles generally receive a rating of “G” (all ages) or “T” (age 13 and over), although certain of our titles receive a rating of “M” (age 18 and over), which may limit the potential markets for these titles.

        Several proposals have been made for federal legislation to regulate the entertainment software, motion picture and recording industries, including a proposal to adopt a common rating system for entertainment software, television and music containing violence and sexually explicit material and an inquiry by the Federal Trade Commission with respect to the marketing of such material to minors. Consumer advocacy groups have also opposed sales of entertainment software containing graphic violence and sexually explicit material by pressing for legislation in these areas and by engaging in public demonstrations and media campaigns. If any groups were to target our titles, we might be required to significantly change or discontinue a particular title.

We operate in a highly competitive industry.

        The entertainment software industry is intensely competitive and new entertainment software products and platforms are regularly introduced. Our competitors vary in size from small companies with

5

limited resources to very large corporations with significantly greater financial, marketing and product development resources than we have. Due to these greater resources, certain of our competitors can spend more money and time on developing and testing products, undertake more extensive marketing campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing policies, pay higher fees to licensors for desirable motion picture, television, sports and character properties and pay more to third-party software developers than we can. We believe that the main competitive factors in the entertainment software industry include: product features and playability; brand name recognition; compatibility of products with popular platforms; access to distribution channels; quality of products; ease of use; price; marketing support; and quality of customer service.

        We also face increasing competition for the leisure and entertainment time of consumers. Our publishing business competes with all other sources of information and entertainment, including television, movies, music, live events, radio broadcasts, home video products, print media and the Internet. Technological advancements, such as new streaming capabilities and downloading entertainment via the Internet, have increased the number of media and entertainment choices available to consumers and presents challenges as our audience becomes more fragmented. The increasing number of choices available to consumers could negatively impact demand for our products, or require us to use additional resources to develop more sophisticated software, or both. If we do not respond effectively to increases in the leisure and entertainment choices available to consumers, it could have an adverse effect on our competitive position and revenues.

If our products contain defects, our business could be harmed significantly.

        Software products as complex as the ones we publish may contain undetected errors when first introduced or when new versions are released. Despite extensive testing prior to release, we cannot be certain that errors will not be found in new products or releases after shipment, that could result in loss of or delay in market acceptance. This loss or delay could significantly harm our business and financial results.

We rely on independent third parties to develop a number of our software products.

        We rely on independent third-party entertainment software developers to develop a number of our software products. Since we depend on these developers we remain subject to the following risks

  •   continuing strong demand for developers’ resources, combined with the recognition they receive in connection with their work, may cause developers who worked for us in the past either to work for our competitors in the future or to renegotiate our agreements with them on terms less favorable for us;

  •   limited financial resources and business expertise and inability to retain skilled personnel may force developers out of business prior to completing our products or require us to fund additional costs; and

  •   our competitors may acquire the businesses of key developers or sign them to exclusive development arrangements. In either case, we would not be able to continue to engage such developers’ services for our products, except for those that they are contractually obligated to complete for us.

        Due to the limited number of third-party developers and the limited control that we exercise over them, these developers may not be able to complete titles for us on a timely basis or within acceptable quality standards, if at all.

The retail market for PC game software is decreasing which could have an adverse impact on our financial condition.

        The changing characteristics of the worldwide consumer entertainment software market in recent years have been impacted by many factors, such as:

  •   An increasing number of technologically advanced PCs with more powerful operating systems, enhanced graphics and video cards, expanded memory chips, as well as higher capacities and faster speeds for CD and hard drives in the home and office;

  •   greater access by consumers to the Internet through high-speed access modes (such as cable modems and DSL connections);

  •   increased interest in online game play;

  •   the increasing number of game console devices in the home; and

  •   the development of increasingly advanced technologies supporting game play (such as hand held game devices, mobile phones and personal digital assistants).

        As a result of this increased competition in the overall consumer entertainment market, market data suggests that the retail market for PC game software has decreased over the past two years. If this trend continues it could have an adverse impact on our financial condition.

The PC software game market has gravitated towards mass merchant retailers.

        The PC software game market has gravitated toward mass merchant retailers thereby increasing the competition for shelf space for PC games. This increased competition has emphasized the importance of marketing, merchandising and brand name recognition. A significant result of these market pressures is an industry trend toward the consolidation of consumer entertainment PC software publishers and distributors, in addition to the diversification of products offered by these companies. The trends toward industry consolidation and increased competition for game content and retail shelf space are more pronounced in North America than in international markets and are expected to continue for the foreseeable future.

We may face difficultly obtaining access to retail shelf space necessary to market and sell our products effectively.

        Retailers of our products typically have a limited amount of shelf space and promotional resources, and there is intense competition among consumer entertainment software products for high quality retail shelf space and promotional support from retailers. To the extent that the number of products and platforms increases, competition for shelf space may intensify and may require us to increase our marketing expenditures. Retailers with limited shelf space typically devote the most and highest quality shelf space to those products expected to be best sellers. We cannot be certain that our new products will achieve such “best seller” status. Due to increased competition for limited shelf space, retailers and distributors are in an increasingly better position to negotiate favorable terms of sale, including price discounts, price protection, marketing and display fees and product return policies. Our products constitute a relatively small percentage of any retailer’s sales volume. We cannot be certain that retailers will continue to purchase our products or to provide our products with adequate levels of shelf space and promotional support on acceptable terms. A prolonged failure in this regard may significantly harm our business and financial results.

7

We permit our customers to return our products and to receive pricing concessions which could reduce our net revenues and results of operations.

        We are exposed to the risk of product returns and price protection with respect to our distributors and retailers. Return policies allow distributors and retailers to return defective, shelf-worn and damaged products in accordance with terms granted. Price protection, when granted and applicable, allows customers a credit against amounts they owe us with respect to merchandise unsold by them. We may permit product returns from, or grant price protection to, our customers under certain conditions. The conditions our customers must meet to be granted the right to return products or price protection are, among other things, compliance with applicable payment terms, delivery to us of weekly inventory and sell-through reports, and consistent participation in the launches of our premium title releases. We may also consider other factors, including the facilitation of slow-moving inventory and other market factors. When we offer price protection, we offer it with respect to a particular product to all of our retail customers; however, only those customers who meet the conditions detailed above can avail themselves of such price protection. Although we maintain a reserve for returns and price protection, and although we may place limits on product returns and price protection, we could be forced to accept substantial product returns and provide substantial price protection to maintain our relationships with retailers and our access to distribution channels. Product returns and price protection that exceed our reserves could significantly harm our business and financial results.

Technology changes rapidly in our business, and if we fail to anticipate or successfully implement new technologies, the quality, timeliness and competitiveness of our products and services will suffer.

        Rapid technology changes in our industry require us to anticipate, sometimes years in advance, which technologies we must implement and take advantage of in order to make our products and services competitive in the market. Therefore, we usually start our product development with a range of technical development goals that we hope to be able to achieve. We may not be able to achieve these goals, or our competition may be able to achieve them more quickly than we can. In either case, our products and services may be technologically inferior to our competitors’, less appealing to consumers, or both. If we cannot achieve our technology goals within the original development schedule of our products and services, then we may delay their release until these technology goals can be achieved, which may delay or reduce revenue and increase our development expenses. Alternatively, we may increase the resources employed in research and development in an attempt to accelerate our development of new technologies, either to preserve our product or service launch schedule or to keep up with our competition, which would increase our development expenses.

Our business is highly dependent on the success, timely release and availability of new video game platforms, on the continued availability of existing video game platforms, as well as our ability to have commercially successful products developed for these platforms.

        We derive a majority of our revenue from the sale of products for play on video game platforms manufactured by third parties, such as Sony’s PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3 and PSP; and Microsoft’s Xbox, Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii and DS. The success of our business is driven in large part by the availability of an adequate supply of current generation video game platforms (such as the PlayStation 2), the adequate supply, and, increasingly, the success of new video game hardware systems (such as the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and the Wii), our ability to accurately predict which platforms will be successful in the marketplace, and our ability to have commercially successful products developed for these platforms. We must make product development decisions and commit significant resources well in advance of the anticipated introduction of a new platform. A new platform for which products are being developed may not succeed or may have a shorter life cycle than anticipated. Alternatively, a platform for which we have not devoted significant resources could be more successful than we had initially

8

anticipated, causing us to miss a meaningful revenue opportunity. If the platforms for which products are being developed are not available in adequate quantities to meet consumer demand or are lower than our expectations, or do not attain wide market acceptance, our revenue will suffer and our financial performance will be harmed.

The video game hardware manufacturers set the royalty rates and other fees that we must pay to publish games for their platforms, and therefore have significant influence on our costs. If one or more of these manufacturers adopt a different fee structure for future game consoles, our profitability will be materially impacted.

        In order to publish products for a video game system such as the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 or Wii, we must take a license from the manufacturer, which gives it the opportunity to set the fee structure that we must pay in order to publish games for that platform. Similarly, certain manufacturers have retained the flexibility to change their fee structures, or adopt different fee structures for online gameplay and other new features for their consoles. The control that hardware manufacturers have over the fee structures for their platforms and online access makes it difficult for us to predict our costs, profitability and impact on margins. Because publishing products for video game systems is the largest portion of our business, any increase in fee structures would significantly harm our ability to generate revenues and/or profits.

Risks Associated with Our Operations

There is no assurance that we can successfully implement our business plan that calls for the acquisition of additional entertainment software businesses to create a larger presence in the marketplace.

        We have engaged in, evaluated, and expect to continue to engage in and evaluate, a wide array of potential strategic transactions, including (i) acquisitions of companies, businesses, intellectual properties, and other assets, (ii) minority investments in strategic partners, and (iii) investments in new interactive entertainment businesses. Any of these strategic transactions could be material to our financial condition and results of operations. Although we regularly search for opportunities to engage in strategic transactions, we may not be successful in identifying suitable opportunities. We may not be able to consummate potential acquisitions or investments or an acquisition or investment may not enhance our business or may decrease rather than increase our earnings.

If we are unable to successfully integrate acquisitions, our revenue growth and future profitability may be negatively impacted.

        The process of integrating an acquired business, technology or product may result in unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures and may absorb significant management attention and capital that would otherwise be available for ongoing development of our business. In addition, we may not be able to maintain the levels of operating efficiency that any company we may acquire achieved or might have achieved separately. Additional risks we face include:

  •   the need to implement or remediate controls, procedures and policies appropriate for a public company in an acquired company that, prior to the acquisition, lacked these controls, procedures and policies;

  •   cultural challenges associated with integrating employees from an acquired company or business into our organization;

  •   retaining key employees from the businesses we acquire;

9

  •   the need to integrate an acquired company's accounting, management information, human resource and other administrative systems to permit effective management; and

  •   to the extent that we engage in strategic transactions outside of the United States, we face additional risks, including risks related to integration of operations across different cultures and languages, currency risks and the particular economic, political and regulatory risks associated with specific countries.

        Future acquisitions and investments could involve the issuance of our equity securities, potentially diluting our existing shareholders, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities or amortization expenses, write-offs of goodwill, intangibles, or acquired in-process technology, or other increased expenses, any of which could harm our financial condition. Our shareholders may not have the opportunity to review, vote on or evaluate future acquisitions or investments.

If our shareholders do not approve the issuance at the Second Closing of shares of our common stock in connection with our July Private Placement, or if we are unsuccessful in raising additional capital in the future, we may be unable to continue to operate or grow our business.

        If our shareholders do not approve the issuance at the Second Closing of 4,149,395 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 2,904,592 shares of our common stock in connection with our July Private Placement we will not have adequate cash to fund anticipated cash needs through the end of our current fiscal year. We cannot assure you that our shareholders will approve this issuance.

        Additionally, due to the competitive nature of the entertainment software industry and the increasing sophistication of entertainment software, the costs for product development and marketing are rising.  As a result we may need to raise capital in the future. Any equity financing may be dilutive to our shareholders, and debt financing, if available, will increase expenses and may involve restrictive covenants. We may be required to raise capital, at times and in amounts, which are uncertain, especially under the current capital market conditions. Under these circumstances, if we are unable to obtain additional capital or are required to raise it on undesirable terms, it may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

Covenants in our agreements relating to our Variable Rate Secured Convertible Debentures due April 30, 2010 may limit our flexibility and prevent us from taking certain actions, which could adversely affect our ability to execute our business strategy.

        Our agreements relating to our Variable Rate Secured Convertible Debentures due April 30, 2010 contain significant restrictive covenants. These covenants could adversely affect us by limiting our ability to plan for or react to market conditions, meet our capital needs and execute our business strategy. These covenants, among other things, limit our ability to issue or sell (i) any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for additional shares of our common stock either (1) at a conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of our common stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities, or (2) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to our business or the market for our common stock; or (ii) enter into any equity line of credit. A breach of these covenants could result could result in the Variable Rate Secured Convertible Debentures becoming immediately due and payable. Additionally, these covenants could limit our flexibility in raising additional capital in the future which could limit our ability to implement our business strategies.

10

Since a significant amount of our assets are denominated in foreign currency and since we conduct business internationally, we are subject to currency and foreign regulatory risks.

        Strategy First is incorporated in Canada and sells products throughout the United States and Europe. Its functional currency is the Canadian Dollar. This has exposed the company to market risk with respect to fluctuations in the relative value of the Euro, British Pound, the Canadian Dollar, and the US Dollar.

        Empire PLC is incorporated in the United Kingdom and sells products throughout Europe and the United States. Its functional currency is the British Pound. This has exposed us to market risk with respect to fluctuations in the relative value of the Euro, British Pound and the US Dollar.

        Certain of the Company’s cash balances and the remaining proceeds from the sale of its South African subsidiaries are denominated in South African Rand. This has exposed the Company to market risk with respect to fluctuations in the relative value of the South African Rand against the US Dollar.

        We expect to repatriate our funds held in South Africa to the United States. We believe that repatriation of the full amount is allowable under current South African foreign currency regulations. Over the last eight years, we have, from time to time, repatriated funds from South Africa without restriction. However, there can be no guarantee that the South African foreign currency regulations will not change in the future in a manner that might restrict our ability to repatriate the remaining assets.

We currently are disputing a tax liability with the South African revenue service and we may be forced to expense additional amounts in this matter

        In April 2006, our subsidiary, First South African Holdings, received a letter from the South African Revenue Service (“SARS”) challenging certain tax treatment of dividends and operating loss carry forwards for the years 2002 through 2004. On May 4, 2007, SARS agreed in principle to drop the larger of its two assessments and on May 25 2007, SARS formally approved this decision. We conceded the principle of SARS second assessment but will continue to negotiate the ultimate liability due under this assessment. We have recorded an estimated liability of approximately $599,000 in this regard but we may be required to increase this amount to the assessed amount of $940,000 should we fail to negotiate a lower assessment amount.

We depend on the continued services of key personnel.

        Our success depends upon the continued contributions of our executive officers, some of whom are also our principal shareholders, and the continued contributions of the management of our operating subsidiaries. Our business could be adversely affected by the loss of services of, or a material reduction in the amount of time devoted to us by our executive officers or the executive officers of our subsidiary. We do not carry key man insurance.

Risks Relating to Our Common Stock

The price of our common stock is highly volatile.

        The price of our common stock is highly volatile. Fluctuations in the market price of our common stock may be a result of any number of factors or a combination of factors including, but not limited to:

  •   the number of shares in the market and the number of shares we may be required to issue in the future compared to market demand for our shares;

  •   our performance and meeting expectations of performance, including the development and commercialization of our current and proposed products and services;

  •   market conditions for internet and media companies in the small capitalization sector; and

  •   general economic and market conditions.

Our executive officers, directors and principal shareholders together may exercise control over all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders..

        Our executive officers, directors own 1,219,134 shares of our Class A common stock and 794,786 shares of our Class B common stock, representing approximately 16.1% of our outstanding capital stock and approximately 32.9% of the total voting power and are able to elect all of our directors and otherwise control our operations. Furthermore, the disproportionate vote afforded the Class B common stock could also serve to impede or prevent a change of control. As a result, potential acquirees may be discouraged from seeking to acquire control through the purchase of our common stock, which could have a depressive effect on the price of our securities and will make it less likely that shareholders receive a premium for their shares as a result of any such attempt.

Since we do not intend to declare dividends in the foreseeable future, the return on your investment will depend upon the appreciation of the market price of your shares.

        We have never paid any dividends on our common stock. Our board of directors does not intend to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future, but intends to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations. As a result, the return on your investment in us will depend upon any appreciation in the market price of our common stock. The holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available for dividend payments. The payment of dividends, if any, in the future is within the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements and financial condition, and other relevant factors.

Anti-takeover measures in our Bye-laws could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock

        Our Bye-laws authorize the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such designations, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors. Accordingly, our board of directors is empowered, without shareholder approval, but subject to applicable government regulatory restrictions, to issue preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. In the event of issuance, the preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of us. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of our preferred stock, we cannot assure we will not do so in the future.

The rights of shareholders under Bermuda law may not be as extensive as the rights of shareholders under the laws of jurisdictions in the United States.

        Our corporate affairs are governed by our Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws, as well as the common law of Bermuda relating to companies and the Companies Act 1981. Our Bye-laws limit the right of security holders to bring an action against our officers and directors. The laws of Bermuda relating to shareholder rights, protection of minorities, fiduciary duties of directors and officers, matters of corporate governance, corporate restructuring, mergers and similar arrangements, takeovers, shareholder suits, indemnification of directors and inspection of corporate records, may differ from those that would apply if we were incorporated in a jurisdiction within the United States. The rights of shareholders in a Bermuda company may not be as extensive as the rights of a shareholder of a United

12

States company and, accordingly, the holders of our shares of common stock may be more limited in their ability to protect their interests in us. In addition, there is uncertainty whether the courts of Bermuda would enforce judgments of the courts of the United States and of other foreign jurisdictions. There is also uncertainty whether the courts of Bermuda would enforce actions brought in Bermuda which are predicated upon the securities laws of the United States.

Our common stock may be delisted from NASDAQ.

        The National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. has established certain standards for the continued listing of a security on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The standards for continued listing require, among other things, that the minimum bid price for the listed securities be at least $1.00 per share. A deficiency in the bid price maintenance standard will be deemed to exist if the issuer fails the individual stated requirement for thirty consecutive trading days, with a 180-day cure period with respect to the NASDAQ Capital Market. During November and December 2004 and March 2005 our common stock traded below a price of $1.00 per share. There can be no assurance that we will continue to satisfy the requirements for maintaining a NASDAQ Capital Market listing. If our common stock were to be excluded from NASDAQ, the market price of our common stock and the ability of holders to sell such stock would be adversely affected, and we would be required to comply with the initial listing requirements to be relisted on NASDAQ.

Our common stock may become subject to the Commission’s penny stock rules.

        If our common stock is excluded from NASDAQ and the price per share of our common stock is below $5.00, our securities would become subject to certain “penny stock” rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission unless we satisfy certain net asset and revenue tests. The application of these rules to our common stock may adversely impact both your ability to resell our common stock (liquidity) and the market price of these shares. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination of suitability of the investor purchasing the penny stock.

USE OF PROCEEDS

        The selling shareholders are selling all of the shares covered by this Prospectus for their own account. Accordingly, we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares.

        We may receive proceeds in connection with the exercise of warrants, the underlying shares of which may be sold by the selling shareholders. Although the timing of any such proceeds are uncertain, such proceeds, if received, will be used for working capital

DIVIDEND POLICY

        We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. We currently anticipate that we will retain all available funds for use in the operation of our business. As such, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

        The shares of common stock being sold by the selling shareholders consist of: (i) 2,057,495 shares of our common stock that we issued to certain selling shareholders in a private placement on July 5, 2007 (the “July Private Placement”); (ii) 1,440,234 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants to purchase our common stock that we issued to the selling shareholders in connection with their purchase of shares of our common stock in the July Private Placement; (iii) 43,207 additional shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants to purchase our common stock that we issued to the placement agent in connection with the July Private Placement; (iv) 56,180 shares of our common stock that we issued to certain selling shareholders in connection with our acquisition of Empire Interactive, plc on December 5, 2006 (the “Empire Interactive Isusance”); and (v) 371,428 shares of our common stock that we issued to certain selling shareholders in a private placement on November 22, 2006 (the “November Private Placement”).

        The table below has been prepared based upon the information furnished to us by the selling shareholders as of July 16, 2007. We have also agreed to prepare and file amendments and supplements to the registration statement to the extent necessary to keep the registration statement effective for the period of time required under our agreements with the selling shareholders.

        Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to shares of our common stock. Shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants or stock options that are exercisable within 60 days after July 16, 2007 are deemed to be beneficially owned by the person holding the warrants or stock options for purposes of calculating the percentage ownership of that person but are not deemed outstanding for calculating the percentage ownership of any other person. Unless otherwise indicated below, to our knowledge, all persons named in this table have sole voting and investment power with respect to their shares of common stock, except to the extent authority is shared by spouses under applicable law. The inclusion of any shares in this table does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership for the person named below.

        We do not know when or in what amounts a selling shareholder may offer shares for sale. The selling shareholders might not sell any or all of the shares offered by this prospectus. Because the selling shareholders may offer all or some of the shares pursuant to this offering, and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale of any of the shares, we cannot estimate the number of the shares that will be held by the selling shareholders after completion of the offering. However, for purposes of this table, we have assumed that, after completion of the offering, none of the shares covered by this prospectus will be held by the selling shareholders.

        None of the selling shareholders are broker-dealers except for the selling shareholders specified on the table below as a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer. We have been advised that each of such selling shareholders purchased our common stock in the ordinary course of business, not for resale, and that none of such selling shareholders had, at the time of purchase, any agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the common stock.

        To our knowledge, none of the selling shareholders has, or has had within the past three years, any position, office or other material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates, other than their ownership of shares described below.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

General

        Our authorized capital stock consists of an aggregate of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, 2,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $.01 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share. As of the date hereof, 11,692,809 shares of our common stock and 814,786 shares of our Class B common stock are outstanding. The following statements describe the material provisions of the securities being registered hereby and certain other of our securities. See “Anti-Takeover Protections” and “Differences in Corporate Law” for a description of the Company’s Memorandum of Association, Bye-laws and The Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda, regarding anti-takeover provisions and related matters affecting us. Such statements and disclosure do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws which are exhibits to the Company’s Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part.

Common Stock

        Holders of our common stock have one vote per share on each matter submitted to a vote of the shareholders and a ratable right to our net assets upon liquidation. Holders of our common stock do not have preemptive rights to purchase additional shares of our common stock or other subscription rights. Our common stock carries no conversion rights and is not subject to redemption or to any sinking fund provisions. All shares of our common stock are entitled to share equally in dividends from legally available sources as determined by our Board of Directors, subject to any preferential dividend rights of our preferred stock. Upon our dissolution or liquidation, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive our assets available for distribution to the shareholders, subject to the preferential rights of our preferred stock. All of the shares of our common stock offered hereby are validly authorized and issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

Class B Common Stock

        Our Class B common stock and our common stock are substantially identical on a share-for-share basis, except that the holders of our Class B common stock have five votes per share on each matter considered by shareholders, and the holders of our common stock have one vote per share on each matter considered by shareholders, and except that the holders of each class will vote as a separate class with respect to any matter requiring class voting by The Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda.

Each share of our Class B common stock is automatically converted into one share of common stock upon:

  •   the death of the original holder, or, if such shares are subject to a shareholders agreement or voting trust granting the power to vote such shares to another original holder of our Class B common stock, then upon the death of such other original holder; or  

  •   the sale or transfer to any person other than the following transferees:

    •   the spouse of a holder of Class B common stock;

    •   a trust for the sole benefit of a Class B common shareholder's lineal descendants, including adopted children;

    •   a partnership made up exclusively of Class B common shareholders and their lineal descendants, including adopted children or a corporation wholly-owned by a holder of Class B common stock and their lineal descendants; and  

21

    •   any other holder of Class B common stock.

        The difference in voting rights increases the voting power of the holders of Class B common stock and accordingly has an anti-takeover effect. The existence of our Class B common stock may make us a less attractive target for a hostile takeover bid or render more difficult or discourage a merger proposal, an unfriendly tender offer, a proxy contest, or the removal of incumbent management, even if such transactions were favored by our shareholders other than the holders of Class B common stock. Thus, the shareholders may be deprived of an opportunity to sell their shares at a premium over prevailing market prices in the event of a hostile takeover bid. Those seeking to acquire us through a business combination will be compelled to consult first with the holders of Class B common stock in order to negotiate the terms of such business combination. Any such proposed business combination will have to be approved by our Board of Directors, which may be under the control of the holders of Class B common stock, and if shareholder approval were required, the approval of the holders of Class B common stock will be necessary before any such business combination can be consummated.

Preferred Stock

        We are authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue this preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the number of shares and the relative rights, conversion rights, voting rights and terms of redemption, including sinking fund provisions, and liquidation preferences, without further vote or action by the shareholders. Issuing shares of preferred stock with voting rights could affect the voting rights of the holders of our common stock by increasing the number of outstanding shares having voting rights, and by the creation of another class or series with voting rights. If our Board of Directors authorizes the issuance of shares of preferred stock with conversion rights, the number of shares of common stock outstanding could potentially be increased. Issuance of preferred stock could, under certain circumstances, have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control and may adversely affect the rights of holders of common stock.  Also, preferred stock could have preferences over the common stock and other series of preferred stock with respect to dividend and liquidation rights. We currently have no plans to issue any preferred stock.

Anti-Takeover Protections

        The voting provisions of our common stock and Class B common stock and the broad discretion conferred upon our Board of Directors with respect to the issuance of series of preferred stock, including with respect to voting rights, could substantially impede the ability of one or more shareholders acquiring sufficient influence over the election of directors and other matters to effect a change in control or management, and our Board of Directors’ ability to issue preferred stock could also be utilized to change our economic and control structure. Those provisions, together with certain other provisions of our Bye-laws summarized in the succeeding paragraph, may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, defer or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a shareholder might consider in his, her or its best interest, including attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for our common stock.

        Our Bye-laws establish an advance notice procedure for the nomination, other than by or at the direction of our Board of Directors, of candidates for election as directors at annual general meetings of shareholders. In general, notice of intent to nominate a director at such meeting must be received by us not less than 90 days prior to the meeting and must contain certain specified information concerning the person to be nominated and concerning the shareholder submitting the proposal.

Differences in Corporate Law

22

        The Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda differs in material respects from laws generally applicable to United States corporations and their shareholders. Set forth below is a summary of significant provisions of The Companies Act, including any modifications adopted pursuant to our Bye-laws, applicable to us, which differ in general material respects from provisions of Delaware corporate law. The following statements are summaries, and do not purport to deal with all aspects of Bermuda law that may be relevant to us and our shareholders.

        Interested Directors. Our Bye-laws provide that any transaction entered into by us in which a director has an interest is not voidable by us nor can such director be liable to us for any profit realized pursuant to such transaction provided the nature of the interest is disclosed at the first opportunity at a meeting of directors, or in writing to the directors. Under Delaware law, no such transaction would be voidable if:

  •   the material facts as to such interested directors’ relationship or interests are disclosed or are known to the board of directors and the board in good faith authorizes the transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of the disinterested directors;  

  •   such material facts are disclosed or are known to the shareholders entitled to vote on such transaction and the transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the shareholders; or  

  •   the transaction is fair as to the corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified.

        Under Delaware law, such interested director could be held liable for any transaction for which such director derived an improper personal benefit.

        Merger and Similar Arrangements. We may merge with another Bermuda exempted company or a company incorporated outside Bermuda and carry on business within the objects of our Memorandum of Association. See “Description of Securities - Certain Provisions of Bermuda Law.” In the event of a merger, a shareholder may apply to a Bermuda court for a proper valuation of such shareholder’s shares if such shareholder is not satisfied that fair value has been paid for such shares. The court ordinarily would not disapprove a merger absent evidence of fraud or bad faith. Under Delaware law, with certain exceptions, any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all the assets of a corporation must be approved by the board of directors and a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. Under Delaware law, a shareholder of a corporation participating in certain major corporate transactions may, under varying circumstances, be entitled to appraisal rights pursuant to which such shareholder may receive cash in the amount of the fair market value of the shares held by such shareholder, as determined by a court or by agreement of the corporation and the shareholder, in lieu of the consideration such shareholder would otherwise receive in the transaction. Delaware law does not provide shareholders of a corporation with voting or appraisal rights when the corporation acquires another business through the issuance of its stock or other consideration:

  •   in exchange for the assets of the business to be acquired;

  •   in exchange for the outstanding stock of the corporation to be acquired; or

  •   in a merger of the corporation to be acquired with a subsidiary of the acquiring corporation. Under Bermuda law, our shareholders have the right to vote on:

  •   any compromise or arrangement between us and our shareholders;

23

  •   a take-over scheme for 100% of our shares enabling the compulsory acquisition of a 10% minority interest;

  •   a merger; and

  •   our discontinuance in Bermuda.

        Takeover. Bermuda law provides that where an offer is made for shares of a company and, within four months of the offer the holders of not less than 90% of the shares which are the subject of the offer accept, the offeror may by notice require the nontendering shareholders to transfer their shares on the terms of the offer. Dissenting shareholders may apply to the court within one month of the notice objecting to the transfer. The burden is on the dissenting shareholders to show that the court should exercise its discretion to enjoin the required transfer, which the court will be unlikely to do unless there is evidence of fraud or bad faith or collusion as between the offeror and the holders of the shares who have accepted the offer as a means of unfairly forcing out minority shareholders. Delaware law provides that a parent corporation, by resolution of its board of directors and without any shareholder vote, may merge with any 90% or more owned subsidiary. Upon any such merger, dissenting shareholders of the subsidiary would have appraisal rights.

        Shareholder’s Suit. The rights of shareholders under Bermuda law are not as extensive as the right of shareholders under legislation or judicial precedent in many United States jurisdictions. Class actions and derivative actions are generally not available to shareholders under the laws of Bermuda. However, the Bermuda courts ordinarily would be expected to follow English case law precedent, which would permit a shareholder to commence an action in our name to remedy a wrong done to us where the act complained of is alleged to be beyond our corporate power or is illegal or would result in the violation of our Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws. Our Bye-laws limit the right of securityholders to bring an action against our officers and directors. Furthermore, consideration would be given by the court to acts that are alleged to constitute a fraud against the minority shareholders or where an act requires the approval of a greater percentage of our shareholders than actually approved it. The winning party in such an action generally would be able to recover a portion of attorneys fees incurred in connection with such action. Class actions and derivative actions generally are available to shareholders under Delaware law for, among other things, breach of fiduciary duty, corporate waste and actions not taken in accordance with applicable law. In such actions, the court has discretion to permit the winning party to recover attorney fees incurred in connection with such action.

        Indemnification of Directors. We may indemnify our directors or officers in their capacity as such in respect of any loss arising or liability attaching to them by virtue of any rule of law in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which a director or officer may be guilty in relation to us other than in respect of his own willful negligence, willful default, fraud or dishonesty. Under Delaware law, a corporation may adopt a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for breaches of the director’s duty of loyalty, for acts or omission not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law, for improper payment of dividends or for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Delaware law has provisions and limitations similar to Bermuda regarding indemnification by a corporation of its directors or officers, except that under Delaware law the statutory rights to indemnification may not be as limited.

        Inspection of Corporate Records. Members of the general public have the right to inspect our public documents available at the office of the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda which will include the Memorandum of Association, including its objects and powers, and any alteration to the Memorandum of Association and documents relating to an increase, reduction or other alteration of our share capital. The shareholders have the additional right to inspect our Bye-laws, minutes of general meetings and audited

24

financial statements, which must be presented to the annual general meeting of shareholders. Our register of shareholders is also open to inspection by shareholders without charge, and to members of the public for a fee. We are required to maintain our share register in Bermuda but may establish a branch register outside Bermuda. We are required to keep at our registered office a register of its directors and officers which is open for inspection by members of the public without charge. Bermuda law does not, however, provide a general right for shareholders to inspect or obtain copies of any other corporate records. Delaware law permits any shareholder to inspect or obtain copies of a corporation’s shareholder list and its other books and records for any purpose reasonably related to such person’s interest as a shareholder.

Bermuda Tax Considerations

        The following describes a summary of some of the material anticipated tax consequences of an investment in our common stock under current Bermuda tax laws. This discussion does not address the tax consequences under non-Bermuda tax laws and, accordingly, each prospective investor should consult its own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of an investment in our common stock. The discussion is based upon laws and relevant interpretation of current laws in effect, all of which are subject to change.

Bermuda Taxation

        Currently, there is no Bermuda:

  •   income tax;

  •   corporation or profits tax;

  •   withholding tax;

  •   capital gains tax;

  •   capital transfer tax;

  •   estate duty; or

  •   inheritance tax

payable by us or our shareholders other than those who are ordinarily resident in Bermuda. We are not subject to stamp or other similar duty on the issue, transfer or redemption of our common stock.

        We have obtained an assurance from the Minister of Finance of Bermuda under the Exempted Undertakings Tax Protection Act that, if there is enacted in Bermuda any legislation imposing tax on any capital assets, gain or appreciation or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax, such tax shall not be applicable to us or any of our operations, or to our shares or our other obligations until March 28, 2016. No reciprocal tax treaty affecting us exists between Bermuda and the U.S.

        As an exempted company, we are liable to pay in Bermuda a registration fee based upon our authorized share capital and the premium on our issued shares. The current annual fee payable to the Bermuda government is $9,345.

Certain Provisions of Bermuda Law

        In a September 1, 1995 letter to our Bermuda counsel, the Bermuda Monetary Authority approved our application for “non-resident” status in Bermuda for exchange control purposes.

25

        The issue of securities to persons regarded as resident outside Bermuda for exchange control purposes and the subsequent transfer of securities between such persons may be effected without specific consent under the Exchange Control Act 1972 and regulations thereunder. Issues and transfers of up to 20% of our issued share capital from time to time to persons regarded as resident in Bermuda for exchange control may also be effected without specific prior approval under the Exchange Control Act 1972.

        Consequently, owners of our common stock who are non-residents of Bermuda for Bermuda exchange control purposes are not restricted in the exercise of the rights to hold or vote their shares. Because we have been designated as a non-resident for Bermuda exchange control purposes there are no restrictions on our ability to transfer funds in and out of Bermuda or to pay dividends to United States residents who are holders of our common stock, other than in respect of local Bermuda currency.

        In accordance with Bermuda law, security certificates are only issued in the names of corporations, partnerships or individuals. In the case of an applicant acting in a special capacity, for example as a trustee, certificates may, at the request of the applicant, record the capacity in which the applicant is acting. Notwithstanding the recording of any such special capacity, we are not bound to investigate or incur any responsibility in respect of the proper administration of any such trust.

        We will take no notice of any trust applicable to any of our securities whether or not we had notice of such trust. Specifically, we have no obligation under Bermuda law to ensure that a trustee who is holding our shares subject to a trust is properly carrying out the terms of such trust.

        As an “exempted company”, we are exempt from Bermuda laws which restrict the percentage of share capital that may be held by non-Bermudians. However, as an exempted company, we may not participate in certain business transactions including:

  •   the acquisition or holding of land in Bermuda, except as required for our business and held by way of lease or tenancy for terms of not more than 50 years;

  •   the taking of mortgages on land in Bermuda to secure an amount in excess of $50,000 without the consent of the Minister of Finance of Bermuda; or

  •   the carrying on of business of any kind in Bermuda other than with persons outside Bermuda, except in furtherance of our business carried on outside Bermuda or under a license granted by the Minister of Finance of Bermuda.  

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

        The selling shareholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of our common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

  •   ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits investors;

  •   block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

  •   purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

  •   an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

26

  •   privately negotiated transactions;

  •   to cover short sales made after the date that this Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission;

  •   broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

  •   a combination of any such methods of sale; and

  •   any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

        The selling shareholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

        Broker-dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling shareholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.

        The selling shareholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of our common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.

        Upon the Company being notified in writing by a selling shareholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of our common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such selling shareholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of our common stock were sold, (iv)the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon the Company being notified in writing by a selling shareholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of our common stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.

        The selling shareholder also may transfer the shares of our common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

        The selling shareholder and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions,

27

commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of Shares will be paid by the selling shareholder and/or the purchasers. Each selling shareholder has represented and warranted to the Company that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of such selling shareholder’s business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such selling shareholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.

        The Company has advised each selling shareholder that it may not use shares registered on this Registration Statement to cover short sales of our common stock made prior to the date on which this Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission. If a selling shareholder uses this prospectus for any sale of our common stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling shareholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such selling shareholders in connection with resales of their respective shares under this Registration Statement.

        The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of our common stock. The Company has agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

LEGAL MATTERS

        The validity of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon Conyers Dill & Pearman, our Bermuda counsel.
