2.  Item 6 of the Original Filing is hereby amended and supplemented with the following:

A.            Written Consent.    On December 10, 2009, the Reporting Persons delivered to the Company a request that the board of directors of the Company fix a record date with respect to an Action by Written Consent of Stockholders (the “Written Consent”) which the Reporting Persons intend to execute and deliver to the Company pursuant to Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

The Written Consent will, if so executed and delivered, (i) remove Ronald Kanterman, or any successor to Ronald Kanterman, if applicable, as a director of the Company, due to Mr. Kanterman’s employment with the Company having ended, and (ii) elect John Sampson as a director of the Company, to fill the vacancy created by the removal of Ronald Kanterman, or any successor to Ronald Kanterman, if applicable, to hold such office until the next annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company and until John Sampson’s successor has been duly elected and qualified.

John Sampson has more than 30 years of direct applicable experience in the pharmaceutical industry, including extensive pharmaceutical expertise in branded drug development, branded drug marketing, drug delivery systems, corporate and business development, manufacturing and extensive clinical and regulatory experience.  Mr. Sampson ran 3M’s pharmaceuticals division prior to divesting the division into three different companies.  Mr. Sampson is expected to add much needed expertise to the board of directors of the Company in most functional areas of the Company’s business and contribute significantly to the Company’s return to profitability and growth.  Mr. Sampson is recognized as a creative problem solver with extensive international industry relationships.

Mr. Terry Hatfield, the Company’s board of directors Chairman and Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee, has been complimentary of Mr. Sampson and has communicated that he and many of the directors of the Company who met Mr. Sampson believe that Mr. Sampson would make a very effective director for the Company.

The foregoing description of the Written Consent is qualified in its entirety by the copy of the full Written Consent which filed as Exhibit 2 to this schedule and incorporated herein by this reference.

The Reporting Persons may be deemed to be a “group” as such term is defined in Section 13d of the Exchange Act; provided, however, that except for their intent to cooperate in filing the Second Written Consent, presently none of the Reporting Persons have any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships with respect to any future actions, including any further written consents or votes at meetings of stockholders.
