Item 8.01 Other Events.
 
On June 25, 2007, the Company re-convened a special meeting of its shareholders which was adjourned on June 11, 2007 for lack of a quorum. At the re-convened special meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation increasing the number of authorized shares of common stock from 25 million to 350 million. Upon effectiveness of the amendment, each share of the Company’s outstanding shares of Series AA Preferred Stock automatically converted into 2,222.2 shares of common stock and each share of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock automatically converted into 1,470.59 shares of common stock. In addition, warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Series AA Preferred Stock automatically converted into warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result, 20,684.53 shares of Series AA Preferred Stock were converted into 45,965,163 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 32,859.80 shares of Series AA Preferred Stock were converted into warrants to purchase 73,021,098 shares of common stock. Further, 2,516.09 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were converted into 3,700,147 shares of common stock. The Company also had outstanding warrants to purchase 2,020.76 shares of Series A Preferred Stock that were automatically converted into warrants to purchase 2,245,262 shares of common stock. As a result of the foregoing conversions, as of June 25, 2007 the Company has 71,376,190 shares of issued and outstanding common stock, constituting the only class of capital stock of the Company that is issued and outstanding.
 
Additionally, at the re-convened special meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s bylaws allowing the Company’s board of directors to amend the bylaws without shareholder approval.
 
Further, effective June 8, 2007 the Company amended the proxy card (in both electronic and paper format) with respect to the vote taken at the special meeting to correct a typographical error.
