Item 1.01 — Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On May 31, 2006, we completed a private placement pursuant to which we issued to one accredited investor, Cornell Capital, L.P. (“Cornell”)

A 6% secured convertible debenture with a principal amount of $10,000,000, which is the first of three 6% secured convertible debentures (cumulatively, the “6% Debentures”), for which the aggregate principal amount will be $16,000,000, and

Three warrants, to purchase a total of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock (the “Warrants”) at exercise prices of $1.25 per share (2,000,000 warrants), $1.75 per share (3,000,000 warrants) and $2.00 per share (3,000,000 warrants). Each of the warrants can be exercised for a period of three years.

The investor and an unaffiliated party provided us services in connection with completing the transaction, which were valued at $825,000. To compensate these people for those services, we issued them 660,000 shares of our common stock (the “Buyers Shares”).

On June 5, 2006, we issued the second of the three 6% Debentures considered in the transaction documents. This 6% Debenture has a principal amount of $3,000,000.

In accordance with the requirements of the Registration Rights Agreement, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 for the resale of the Buyers Shares, 2,000,000 shares underlying the $1.25 warrant, and 6,075,785 shares underlying the convertible debenture. As a result of further discussions, we entered into a “Surrender and Reissuance Agreement” with Cornell as a result of which Cornell returned to us for reissuance the two debentures (totaling $13,000,000) issued and the three warrants. The purpose of the amendments to those documents was to clarify that, until we obtain shareholder approval of the transaction with Cornell, we will be able to issue no more than a total of 2,000,000 shares pursuant to the $1.25 warrant, and no more than 6,075,785 shares upon conversion of or payment of interest on the $10,000,000 debenture. Additionally, until we obtain shareholder approval, neither of the other two warrants (for a total of 6,000,000 shares) nor the other debenture is exercisable or convertible. With the 660,000 Buyers Shares, this limits the total number of shares we are permitted to issue under the debentures and warrants to less than 20% of the number of shares outstanding on May 31, 2006, in accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(i). This was the intention of the parties in the original transaction, but the documents were revised to more clearly state this intention.

Item 3.01 — Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

On June 12, 2006, we received a letter from Nasdaq that advised that Nasdaq examiners did not believe that the documents as originally signed met the requirements of the shareholder approval rule in Marketplace Rule 4350(i)(1)(A) (the “Rule”). Based on subsequent discussions with Nasdaq staff and execution of the amended and restated documents described above, Nasdaq staff determined that we “regained compliance with the Rule and the matter is now




 

closed.”  The letter of June 12, 2006, was the first written notification that we received from Nasdaq staff on this subject.
