Item 8.01. Other Events.

On January 12, 2005, Glowpoint, Inc. (the “Company”) announced via press release that PricewaterhouseCoopers had rendered its decision in the Company’s arbitration proceeding with Gores Technology Group. The arbitration was conducted pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement governing the sale of the Company’s Video Solutions business to Gores in September 2003. The arbitrator found 65% in favor of Glowpoint, allowing only $4.3 million of Gores’ $12.3 million in claims. Glowpoint estimates that after netting out various amounts owed by the parties to each other arising out of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Gores owes the Company approximately $3.5 million.

The complete text of the press release is set forth as Exhibit 99.1.
