ITEM 4.	PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

The Reporting Persons consider the shares of Common Stock that they beneficially own an investment made in the ordinary course of its business. The Reporting Persons intend to review on a continuing basis its investment in the Issuer, including the Issuer’s business, financial condition and operating results and general market and industry conditions and, based upon such review, may acquire additional shares of Common Stock or dispose of shares of Common Stock in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or in any other lawful manner.

Purchase Agreement

On August 10, 2004, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer issued and sold to the Funds an aggregate of 2,674,500 shares of Common Stock for a purchase price of $3.2841 per share of Common Stock representing aggregate consideration of $8,783,325.45. The funds for the purchase of such Common Stock held by the Funds were obtained from the contributions of the Funds’ partners/shareholders. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Item 4 or elsewhere in this Statement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, at the Closing, the Issuer amended its by-laws to increase the size of its board of directors from five to six members and appointed Lawrence D. Lenihan, Jr. as a Class III member of the Board of Directors. From and after the Closing, for so long as FirstMark beneficially holds at least seventy-five percent of the Common Stock purchased by the Funds pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer has agreed to use its best efforts to cause: (i) Mr. Lenihan to remain a Class III director; (ii) Mr. Lenihan to be nominated and elected to the board of directors of the Issuer in any election of directors; and (iii) any vacancy, should Mr. Lenihan cease for any reason to be a member of the board of directors of the Issuer, to be filled by a replacement designated by FirstMark and reasonably acceptable to the Issuer. Mr. Lenihan resigned from the Issuer’s Board of Directors on July 17, 2009.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer and the Funds entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August 9, 2004 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 registering the Common Stock for resale on a continuous basis under Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), which was declared effective on January 11, 2005. The Issuer is required to keep such registration statement effective until all the Common Stock registered thereunder is sold or the holders are entitled to sell such Common Stock without volume restrictions under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act.

Copies of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (which contains the form of Penalty Warrant as an exhibit) were previously filed as Exhibits 1 and 2, respectively, to the Schedule 13D filed by Pequot and are incorporated herein by reference. The descriptions herein of such agreements are qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreements.
