ITEM 3.     SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

     On February 16, 2005, Sunra purchased from the Issuer $2,000,000 of debentures for cash, pursuant to a Convertible Note, Warrant and Common Stock Purchase Agreement between the Issuer and Sunra (the “Purchase Agreement”). The debentures bore interest at 6% per annum and were due and payable on April 30, 2008. The debentures were initially convertible into an aggregate of 18,442,876 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer at a conversion price of $0.1078 per share. In addition to the debentures, Sunra acquired a warrant to purchase 1,904,767 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.21 per share. On July 18, 2005, the Issuer effected a 5-to-1 reverse stock split of its Common Stock. As a result, (a) the number of shares of Common Stock into which the principal of the debentures were convertible was reduced from 18,442,876 shares to 3,688,575 shares, and the conversion price increased from $0.1078 per share to $0.539 per share; and (b) the number of shares of Common Stock exercisable under the warrant was reduced from 1,904,767 shares to 380,953 shares, and the exercise price increased from $0.21 per share to $1.05 per share. The debentures and warrant were issued in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

     On July 27, 2005, Sunra converted the principal and accrued interest under the debentures into 3,808,778 shares of Common Stock and a warrant to purchase 247,619 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant”). The conversion price of the Common Stock was $0.539 per share. The exercise price of the Warrant is $1.05 per share. The Warrant is immediately exercisable and expires in five years if not previously exercised. These transactions were exempt from registration in reliance on the exemptions under Section 3(a)(9) and Section 4(2)of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

     The total amount of the funds required to purchase the subject securities was and is anticipated to be furnished from the personal funds of the Reporting Persons or the investment capital of the client or clients of the Reporting Persons. No part of the purchase price was or is anticipated to be borrowed by such Reporting Persons or their clients for the purpose of acquiring such securities.

ITEM 4.     PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

     (a)     The response to Item 3 is incorporated herein by reference.

     In addition, the Reporting Persons may from time to time, depending on prevailing market, economic and other conditions, acquire additional shares of the capital stock of the Issuer or become the beneficial owner of additional shares of the capital stock of the Issuer by causing Sunra to acquire such additional shares of the Issuer’s capital stock,

Page 6 of 10 Pages

or engage in discussions with the Issuer concerning further acquisitions of shares of the Issuer’s capital stock or further investments in the Issuer. The Reporting Persons intend to review Sunra’s investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and, depending upon the price and availability of shares of Common Stock, subsequent developments affecting the Issuer’s, the Issuer’s business and prospects, other investment and business opportunities available to such Reporting Persons, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations and other factors considered relevant, may decide at any time to increase or to decrease the size of their investment in the Issuer.

     The Issuer may choose to grant additional shares of Common Stock or options to purchase shares of Common Stock in the future to Waechter in connection with his service as a director of the Issuer.

     (b)     The Reporting Persons do not presently have any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries.

     (c)     The Reporting Persons do not presently have any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or of any of its subsidiaries.

     (d)     In connection with the purchase of debentures on February 16, 2005 and the conversion of such debentures into stock on July 27, 2005, pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement dated February 16, 2005 (as amended), the Issuer granted Sunra the right to nominate a director of the Issuer. Sunra, at the instruction of the Reporting Persons, proposed that the Board appoint Waechter to fill a vacancy on the Board, and the Board appointed Waechter as a Class III director to fill such vacancy on August 10, 2005. Waechter’s term will expire at the next annual meeting of stockholders. At this time, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals to make any additional changes in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer, including any changes in the number or term of directors or the filling of any existing vacancies on the Board of Directors.

     (e)     The response to Item 3 is incorporated herein by reference.

     (f)     The Reporting Persons do not presently have any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure.

     (g)     The Reporting Persons do not presently have any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in changes in the Issuer’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person.

     (h)     The Reporting Persons do not presently have any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in a class of securities of the Issuer being delisted from a national securities exchange or ceasing to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association.

EX-99.B 2 d65925_ex99-b.htm MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

EXHIBIT B

MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

          This Management Agreement (this Agreement) is entered into as of the 9th day of September, 2002 between Sunra Capital Holdings Limited, a Bermuda company (SCH), and California Pacific Capital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Advisor).

          1.          Appointment of Advisor. SCH hereby engages Advisor to provide the investment services described in this Agreement (the Services) with respect to SCH. Advisor agrees to use its diligent, commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Services.

          2.          Authority and Discretion of Advisor.

                       2.1          General Authority. SCH grants to Advisor absolute power and authority to manage and administer, in its sole discretion, the assets of SCH (now owned or hereafter acquired), including full power and authority to exercise all incidents of ownership with respect to such assets, including, but not limited to, the power of attorney, the sole power to vote or to direct the voting of any Securities (as defined below) held by SCH (now owned or hereafter acquired) and the sole power to dispose, or to direct the disposition of any such Securities, in the name, and for the account and risk, of SCH, including the power and authority to do any of the following things, in the sole discretion of Advisor, without prior approvals and directions from, or consultations with, SCH or any custodian of such assets:

                                       (a)          to have and exercise, in its sole discretion all “Voting power” as such term is defined and used in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) and under Rule 13(d)-3, as promulgated under the Exchange Act;

                                       (b)          to have and exercise, in its sole discretion all “Investment power” as such term is defined and used in the Exchange Act and under Rule 13(d)-3, as promulgated under the Exchange Act;

                                       (c)          to authorize sub-advisers, in their discretion, to buy, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, lend, exchange, deliver and otherwise trade in Securities (as defined below), and purchase Securities in public offerings (including initial public offerings) and private placements;

                                       (d)          to engage directly in investment activities of the kind contemplated by clause (c) above;

                                       (e)          to select and engage custodians for SCH assets, enter into and terminate agreements with such custodians on terms and conditions approved by Advisor, and monitor the performance of such custodians;

                                       (f)          to perform any other act, including the signing and delivering of contracts, instruments, orders, receipts and all other documents, incidental to the broad powers granted to Advisor under this Agreement; and

1



                                       (g)          to select and engage other investment advisers as sub-advisers to SCH, enter into and terminate agreements with those sub-advisers on terms and conditions approved by Advisor, and monitor the performance of the sub-advisers;

provided, however, that Advisor cannot invest assets of SCH in investment related limited partnerships, limited liability companies or other entities managed by Advisor for which Advisor is separately compensated, unless Advisor receives the prior written consent of SCH, and in such case, the assets so invested would not be included in the computation of the fees described in Section 3 below.

As used in this Section 2, the term “Securities” encompasses common stock, preferred stock, warrants, convertible securities, bonds, notes, options, shares of investment companies, partnership interests, limited liability company interests, interests in REITs, derivative instruments, and any similar or related investment instruments or vehicles.

                       2.2          Custodian Instructions. SCH authorizes Advisor to give written instructions to any custodian for SCH assets at any time, and from time to time to (a) deliver any Securities sold, exchanged or otherwise disposed of from SCH to the relevant transferee, upon receipt of payment for such Securities, and (b) pay cash for any Securities delivered to a custodian upon acquisition for SCH. SCH authorizes and directs each custodian for SCH assets to follow such instructions. Except for payment of fees under Section 3 below, this authority shall not include the authority to cause Securities or cash to be delivered to Advisor.

                       2.3          Other Authorizations.

                                       (a)          In connection and simultaneous with the execution of this Agreement, SCH will execute and deliver to Advisor a copy of the Power of Attorney attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement.

                                       (b)          SCH, at its expense, shall promptly and duly execute and deliver such other documents and assurances, including, but not limited to, any powers of attorney and authorizations to buy, sell or otherwise dispose of any assets held by SCH, and shall take such further action as the Advisor may from time to time request in order to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement and the other agreements and transactions contemplated herein, including, but not limited to, voting of the Securities and the acquisition and disposition thereof in accordance with the power and authority granted Advisor hereunder and thereunder, and to establish and protect the rights and remedies created or intended to be created in favor of Advisor hereunder. Further, SCH will furnish, and will direct any custodian engaged by SCH or Advisor to furnish, such additional authorizations as may be requested from time to time by Advisor, or by brokers or other third parties with which SCH has dealings, in order to implement the authority granted in this Section 2 or otherwise carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement.

          3.          Fees and Expenses.

                       3.1          Management Fee. SCH will pay Advisor a management fee (Management Fee) at the annual rate of 2.0% of the Assets Under Management. For purposes hereof, Assets Under Management means the aggregate cash or other consideration paid into

2



SCH as capital (whether or not then characterized as capital on SCH’s books or otherwise) through the specified time, determined in U.S. dollars as of the date of investment, and without regard to distributions. The Management Fee will be paid quarterly in advance based on the Assets Under Management as of the first day of each calendar quarter. SCH will pay the Management Fee in U.S. dollars promptly following the beginning of such quarter, unless the Advisor elects to defer receipt of the Management Fee as further described below. The Management Fee will be prorated for any period that is less than a full calendar quarter, and will be deducted in computing the net profit or net loss of SCH. For purposes of this Agreement the effective date for billing purposes is July 1, 2002. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon request by SCH, and with the consent of the Advisor, the Management Fee may be waived or reduced with respect to Assets Under Management invested in SCH by employees or affiliates of the Advisor, relatives of such persons, and for certain strategic investors.

                       3.2          Incentive Fee. SCH will pay Advisor the incentive fees as set forth in this Section 3.2 (“Incentive Fee”).

                                       (a)          Appreciated Net Asset Value. Within 60 days after the end of each fiscal year of SCH, SCH will determine the Appreciated Net Asset Value for such fiscal year. For purposes hereof, Net Appreciated Asset Value means the increase in the value of SCH net assets, if any, during such fiscal year over the net assets of SCH, as of the end of the prior fiscal year. The value of SCH’s assets will be determined as set forth below. For purposes of this clause (a) the Incentive Fee is an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of Net Appreciated Asset Value. If SCH determines that it has generated a Net Appreciated Asset Value for a fiscal year, and Advisor elects in writing within 60 days following receipt of such determination to receive an Incentive Fee with respect to such Net Appreciated Asset Value, SCH will pay the Incentive Fee with respect to such Net Appreciated Asset Value within 15 days following receipt of such notice. If SCH incurs a net reduction in net assets for one or more fiscal years, and during a subsequent fiscal year or years SCH generates Net Appreciated Asset Value, no Incentive Fee will be payable under this clause until the aggregate amount of the net reductions in net assets previously allocated has been recouped against Net Appreciated Asset Value for applicable fiscal year(s). If any Distribution (as defined in clause (b) below) is made during a fiscal year, the value of the Distribution will be subtracted from the value of SCH net assets for the prior fiscal in determining Net Appreciated Asset Value for such fiscal year in which the Distribution is made, unless Advisor receives an Incentive Fee pursuant to clause (b) with respect to such Distribution.

                                       (b)          Distributions. SCH will notify Advisor at least 30 days prior to making any distribution to SCH shareholders on account of their equity holdings in SCH (“Distribution”). For purposes of this clause (b), the Incentive Fee is an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the value of such distribution, calculated as of the time of such distribution. If Advisor elects in writing within 30 days following the date of such distribution to receive an Incentive Fee with respect to such distribution, SCH will pay the Incentive Fee with respect to such distribution within 15 days following receipt of such notice. If such distribution is made other than in cash in U.S. dollars, the value of such distribution in U.S. dollars will be determined by as set forth below. It is the intent of the parties that if Advisor receives an Incentive Fee with respect to a Distribution under this clause in a fiscal year, that Advisor may also receive an Incentive Fee under clause (a) with respect to such fiscal year, it being understood

3



that the calculations of the fees under such clauses are intended not to double-count fees payable with respect to such Distribution.

                                       (c)          Carry Over of Incentive Fees. In the event that Advisor does not elect to receive an Incentive Fee under clause (a) for a fiscal year in which Advisor would be entitled to receive such Incentive Fee, Advisor may elect to (i) carry over the Incentive Fee payable under clause (a) for such fiscal year, in which case such amount will be added to a future Incentive Fee payable under this Section 3.2, at Advisor’s discretion or (ii) with respect to contiguous fiscal years only, calculate the Incentive Fee payable under clause (a) with respect to such fiscal years, in which case Net Appreciated Asset Value will be calculated as the net change in the value of net assets over such fiscal years (net of any asset value reductions carried over from prior years).

                                       (d)          Termination. In the event that this Agreement is terminated prior to the last day of any fiscal year, the Incentive Fee under clause (a) for that fiscal year will be computed as if the termination date was the end of such fiscal year. Upon termination of this Agreement, except as set forth above, Advisor will not be entitled to an Incentive Fee under clause (a); however, Advisor will continue to be entitled to receive Incentive Fees under clause (b) with respect to Distributions until the assets of SCH are liquidated in full.

                                       (e)          Form of Payment. Unless otherwise mutually agreed, Incentive Fees will be paid in cash, in U.S. dollars. If SCH does not have liquid assets sufficient to make a required Incentive Fee payment at the time required, Advisor may liquidate SCH assets, in Advisor’s discretion, in order to make such payment.

                                       (f)          Valuation of Assets. For purposes of valuing the assets of SCH under clause (a) and for valuing non-U.S. dollar denominated assets included within any Distribution, the following will apply. Advisor and SCH will attempt to reach mutual agreement with respect to such value within 30 days following notice by the party seeking such valuation, and if such mutual agreement is reached, the value of such assets will be the mutually agreed value. If such agreement is not reached within such time period, the parties will appoint a mutually acceptable independent appraiser within 15 days to make a determination in good faith of such value, and if such appraiser is so appointed, the value of such assets will be the value assigned by such appraiser. SCH will pay the expenses of such appraiser. If the parties fail to agree upon an appraiser within such period, each party will appoint an appraiser at such party’s expense within 15 days, and such appraisers will within another 10 days appoint a third appraiser, whose expenses will initially be paid by SCH. Such appraisers will make a determination of the value of such assets. The value of the assets will be the average of the three values. If the value ascribed by the third appraiser is closer to the value ascribed by the appraiser appointed by Advisor, then Advisor will reimburse SCH for half of the cost of the third advisor.

                       3.3          Expenses. In addition to the Management Fee and Incentive Fee described above, SCH will be responsible for all expenses related to the management of SCH, including all custodian fees and expenses, sub-adviser performance fees, sub-adviser asset-based fees, bank service fees, wire transfer fees, exchange fees, debit-balance interest and similar administrative and transaction costs. These costs and expenses will be debited to SCH as they are incurred and will be promptly paid by SCH.

4



          4.          Management Fee Billing. SCH specifically authorizes its custodian bank(s) to pay Advisor the Management Fee and Incentive Fee upon receipt of Advisor’s invoice, pursuant to Section 4 of this agreement.

          5.          Standard of Care. SCH acknowledges that the investment strategies contemplated for SCH entail inherent risks and that Advisor does not guarantee either that SCH will realize any particular return or that there will not be losses by SCH.

          6.          Information and Confidentiality.

SCH hereby agrees to provide to Advisor such information regarding SCH and its properties, business and affiliates as Advisor shall reasonably request for the purpose of filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or other applicable governmental authorities any reports or other filings, including any amendments or updates thereto, required by applicable law to be filed by Advisor and/or its managers, members, employees and affiliates in connection with this Agreement and the performance of the Services by Advisor. SCH hereby represents and warrants that such information provided by SCH shall be complete and accurate as of the time such information is provided to Advisor, and that SCH will promptly notify Advisor of any changes in such information during the term of this Agreement and for such additional periods following the termination of this Agreement as Advisor and/or its managers, members, employees and affiliates may be required to make such regulatory filings

                       6.2          Confidentiality. Advisor and SCH acknowledge that they will acquire information and materials from each other and knowledge about each other’s business, financial condition, products, programming techniques, experimental work, customers and suppliers and that all such knowledge, information and materials acquired are and will be the trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information of such other party (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information will not include, however, any information that is or becomes part of the public domain through no fault of the receiving party or that the disclosing party regularly gives to third parties without restriction on use or disclosure. Advisor and SCH hereby agree to use all reasonable efforts to keep such Confidential Information in strict confidence and to not disclose it to others; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 7.2 will not restrict Advisor and its managers, members, employees and affiliates from disclosing SCH’s Confidential Information to the extent required by any law or regulation or to the extent required to perform the Services hereunder.

Advisor will not be entitled to participate in any plans, arrangements, or distributions by SCH pertaining to any bonus, stock option, profit sharing, insurance or similar benefits for SCH’s employees.

                       7.3          Liability Insurance.
