ITEM 7.01. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE

On October 29, 2004, iPass completed its previously announced acquisition of Mobile Automation (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, Mobile Automation became a wholly-owned subsidiary of iPass. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated October 26, 2004, by and among iPass, Montage Acquisition Corp., Mobile Automation and David Strohm, as Stockholders’ Agent, iPass paid approximately $20 million to the current stockholders, optionholders and warrantholders of Mobile Automation, of which $4 million was deposited in escrow for a period of up to 18 months as security against breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and other indemnification obligations by Mobile Automation pursuant to the agreement (the “Merger Consideration”). In addition, the vesting of all outstanding options of Mobile Automation was accelerated, and each optionholder cancelled his or her option in exchange for a specified portion of the Merger Consideration. A copy of the agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1.
