ITEM 5.02.   DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR PRINCIPAL OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF PRINCIPAL OFFICERS

On July 2, 2007, Timothy J. Richerson submitted his resignation as Chief Executive Officer of the Registrant, taking full effect on July 31, 2007.  The Registrant’s Board of Directors appointed its Chairman, Thomas R. Curran, Jr., age 48, as Interim Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Curran has been a director of the Registrant since 2003.  Because of his appointment as Interim Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Curran is stepping down from his positions on the Board’s Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating Committee.  There are no related party transactions between the Registrant and Mr. Curran reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.  At this time, the terms of Mr. Curran’s employment arrangement with the Registrant have not been determined. The Registrant will file an amendment to this Form 8-K when such arrangement has been determined.

In a related action, on July 2, 2007, James Weaver was elected as a director of the Registrant.  Mr. Weaver was elected pursuant to the provisions of the Registrant’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation by the directors remaining in office that were elected by the holder of the Registrant’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  The Registrant expects Mr. Weaver to be elected to the Board’s Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating Committee, filling the vacancies created by Mr. Curran’s election as Interim Chief Executive Officer.  Mr. Weaver is presently the Vice President of Alticor Corporate Enterprises of Alticor Inc., the corporate parent of Pyxis Innovations Inc., the Registrant’s largest stockholder. There are no related party transactions between the Registrant and Mr. Weaver reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

On July 2, 2007, David A. Finkelstein resigned as Chief Strategy Officer of the Registrant effective immediately.
