Item 8.01.Other Events.
 
On May 5, 2010, the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York filed a criminal complaint (the "Criminal Complaint") against the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Michael Metter, and its Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Steven Moskowitz, charging them with one count of conspiracy, under Title 18, United States Code, Section 371, to commit securities fraud and obstruction of justice.  The Criminal Complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York.  The allegations in the Criminal Complaint arise from public statements allegedly made by Messrs. Metter and Moskowitz concerning the nature and extent of the Company's sales.  Both men were arrested on this charge on May 5 and released on bail the same day.  Also on May 5, 2010, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed a civil complaint (the "SEC Complaint") in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York naming the Company and Messrs. Metter and Moskowitz, among others, as defendants.  The SEC Complaint mirrors the Criminal Complaint and asserts various claims arising under the federal securities laws.  The Company and its officers deny the charges asserted against them and intend to fully defend themselves.  The Company remains in business and continues normal business operations during the pendency of these proceedings.
