Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
  
The shares of Common Stock were purchased by The Quercus Trust for investment purposes.  Subject to applicable securities laws and regulations, the Reporting Persons may dispose or acquire securities of the Issuer, including the Common Stock, depending upon the position of the market, the Issuer, and other factors.  The Reporting Persons have during the past five months sold Common Stock on the open market from time to time depending on market conditions. The purpose of the sales has been to obtain liquidity for The Quercus Trust.  Except as aforesaid, the Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals which relate to or which would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Sched ule 13D.

(ii)  Vested option (right to buy) awarded on 2/26/09 to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.05 per share, which expires on 2/25/11 (the "February Option").
 
(iii) Vested option (right to buy) granted on 6/24/09 to purchase 8,750 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.60 per share, which expires on 2/25/11 (the "June Option" and together with the February Option, collectively, the "Options").
 
(iv) Warrant to purchase up to 150,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the "2009 Warrant").
 
In accordance with Rule 13D, the Reporting Persons may be deemed beneficial owners of approximately 5,310,638 shares of Common Stock representing 22.2% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the date of this Amendment, which are derived from a sum of (1) 5,141,888 shares of Common Stock and (2) 168,750 vested shares of Common Stock underlying the Options and the 2009 Warrant (collectively, the "Quercus Beneficial Ownership").
