Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Of the 4,453,609 shares of Issuer Common Stock reported in this Statement as beneficially owned by the Reporting Person, 2,106,600 shares of Issuer Common Stock owned directly (the “Owned Shares”) by the Reporting Person and over which the Reporting Person has sole voting and dispositive power were acquired with funds of approximately $31,055,807 (including brokerage commissions).

As an inducement for the Reporting Person to enter into the Merger Agreement described in Item 4 and in consideration thereof, executive officers and directors of the Issuer identified in Schedule A hereto entered into a Voting Agreement dated as of April 24, 2007 with the Reporting Person (the “Voting Agreement”), with respect to 2,347,009 shares of Issuer Common Stock beneficially owned by the executive officers and directors of the Issuer (including 1,792,250 shares of Issuer Common Stock issuable to such executive officers and directors upon exercise of outstanding options which are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof) (collectively, the “Voting Agreement Shares”).

The Reporting Person has not paid and does not expect to pay, additional consideration in connection with the execution and delivery of the Voting Agreement. For a description of the Voting Agreement see Item 4 below, which description is incorporated herein by referenced in response to this Item 3.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

On April 24, 2007, the Reporting Person, K2 Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Reporting Person (“Merger Sub”), and the Issuer, entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”), with the Issuer surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

At the effective time of the Merger, each share of Issuer Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (other than shares held by the Reporting Person, the Issuer or Merger Sub and/or any of their respective subsidiaries, which will be canceled, and Dissenting Shares, as defined in the Merger Agreement) will be automatically converted into the right to receive $10.85 in cash (“Cash Consideration”) and 0.1086 of a share of the Reporting Person’s common stock (subject to adjustment as provided in the Merger Agreement, “Share Consideration” and, collectively with the Cash Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”). No fractional shares of the Reporting Person’s common stock will be issued in connection with the Merger, and holders of Issuer Common Stock will be entitled to receive cash in lieu thereof.

Prior to the effective time of the Merger, all options to purchase Issuer Common Stock granted pursuant to an Issuer equity incentive plan (“Issuer Options”) will become fully vested and exercisable. At the effective time of the Merger, (i) each in-the-money Issuer Option will be automatically converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the number of shares of Issuer Common Stock underlying such Issuer Option, less the exercise price of such Issuer Option, (ii) each out-of-the-money Issuer Option not exercised will be cancelled and (iii) each share of restricted Issuer Common Stock and each restricted stock unit relating to Issuer Common Stock will become vested and will be automatically converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration.

In connection with the Merger, the Issuer’s executive officers and directors entered into the Voting Agreement with the Reporting Person pursuant to which, as more fully described in the following paragraph, they agreed to vote the Voting Agreement Shares at any meeting of the Issuer’s stockholders to approve the Merger and the adoption of the Merger Agreement. As of the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Issuer’s executive officers and directors beneficially owned an aggregate of 2,347,009 shares of Issuer Common Stock (including 1,792,250 shares of Issuer Common Stock issuable to such executive officers and directors upon exercise of outstanding options which are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof), collectively representing approximately 4.6% of the issued and outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock. These 2,347,009 Voting Agreement Shares, together with the 2,106,600 Owned Shares held directly by the Reporting Person, collectively represent approximately 8.7% of the issued and outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock (based on 49,414,461 shares of Issuer Common Stock outstanding as of February 28, 2007, as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on March 16, 2007, plus 1,792,250 shares of Issuer Common Stock issuable to the executive officers and directors who are parties to the Voting Agreement upon exercise of outstanding options which are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof).

 

5


By executing the Voting Agreement, each Issuer Stockholder has agreed to vote all of the shares of Issuer Common Stock beneficially owned by such Issuer Stockholder (a) in favor of the approval and adoption of Merger Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby; (b) against (A) any acquisition proposal other than the Merger, (B) any proposal for action or agreement that would result in a breach or violation of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation of the Issuer under the Merger Agreement or which is reasonably likely to result in any of the conditions under the Merger Agreement to the consummation of the Merger not being satisfied, (C) any change in the directors of the Issuer, or (D) any action that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or materially and adversely affect the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or the likelihood of such transactions being consummated, and (iii) in favor of any matter necessary for consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, each executive officer and director irrevocably and unconditionally appointed the Reporting Person, or any nominee of the Reporting Person, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact and proxy, for and in such person’s name, place and stead to vote each of such person’s shares of Issuer Common Stock as such person’s proxy, at every annual, special, adjourned or postponed meeting of the stockholders of the Issuer, including the right to sign its name (as stockholder) to any consent, certificate or other document relating to the Issuer that Delaware law may permit or require. Subject to certain limited exceptions, the executive officers and directors are prohibited from transferring any of the shares of Issuer Common Stock at any time prior to the expiration of the Voting Agreement.

The Voting Agreement will expire upon the earlier to occur of (a) such date and time as the Merger shall become effective in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Merger Agreement, (b) such date and time as the Merger Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and (c) the mutual agreement of the parties.

References to and descriptions of the Merger Agreement and Voting Agreement in this Item 4 are qualified in their entirety by the complete texts of the Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreement, which are filed as Exhibits to the Section 13D and which are incorporated by reference in this Item 4 as if set forth fully herein.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a), (b) and (c). As a result of our owning directly the Owned Shares and, as a result of entering in the Voting Agreement, possibly being deemed to beneficially own the Voting Agreement Shares, the Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own 4,453,609 shares of Issuer Common Stock in the aggregate, or 8.7% of the outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock. The percentage reported is based upon 49,414,461 shares of Issuer Common Stock outstanding, as reported by the Issuer in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, plus 1,792,250 shares of Issuer Common Stock issuable to the executive officers and directors who are parties to the Voting Agreement upon exercise of outstanding options which are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof. The Reporting Person may be deemed to share the power to vote the Voting Agreement Shares reported hereby as a result of the Voting Agreement. The Reporting Person does not currently have the sole or shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of such Voting Agreement Shares.

The filing of this Schedule 13D and any future amendment by the Reporting Person, and the inclusion of information herein and therein, shall not be considered or construed as an admission that such person, for the purpose of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or otherwise, is the beneficial owner of any shares of Issuer Common Stock in which such person does not have a pecuniary interest.

In addition to entering into the Voting Agreement on April 27, 2007, during the past 60 days the Reporting Person has acquired all 2,106,600 Owned Shares of Issuer Common Stock that the Reporting Person owns directly.

(d) and (e) Not applicable.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer

The information set forth, or incorporated by reference, in Items 3 through 5 of this statement is hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 6. To the Reporting Person’s knowledge, except as otherwise described in this Schedule 13D, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships among the person named in Item 2 above or listed in Schedule A hereto, and between any such persons and nay other person, with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of the securities of the Issuer, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees or profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, or a pledge or contingency the occurrence of which would give another person voting power over the securities of the Issuer.
