ITEM 4. OWNERSHIP.

 

Provide the following information regarding the aggregate number and percentage of the class of securities of the issuer identified in Item 1.

 

 

(a)

Amount beneficially owned:

 

Subject to the Ownership Limitation (defined below), The Tail Wind Fund Ltd. (“Tail Wind”) owns a total of 1,959,900 shares of Common Stock, including 1,432,927 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of $2,350,000 in principal amount of the issuer’s 6.5% Convertible Notes Due April 30, 2010 (“Notes”) issued to Tail Wind on October 29, 2007, and (ii) 526,973 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Warrants issued to Tail Wind on such date (“Warrants”).

 

In accordance with Rule 13d-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, because the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Reporting Person's Notes and Warrants are convertible and exercisable is limited, pursuant to the terms of such instruments, to that number of shares of Common Stock which would result in the Reporting Person having beneficial ownership of 9.9% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (the "Ownership Limitation"), the Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of any and all shares of Common Stock that would cause the Reporting Person's beneficial ownership to exceed the Ownership Limitation.

 

Therefore, in accordance with the Ownership Limitation, Tail Wind, based upon 16,833,496 shares of common stock outstanding, beneficially owns 1,849,629 shares of Common Stock and disclaims beneficial ownership of 110,271 shares of Common Stock.

 

 

(b)

Percent of class:

 

Tail Wind’s beneficial ownership of 1,849,629 shares of Common Stock constitutes 9.9% of all the outstanding shares of Common Stock, based upon 16,833,496 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 14, 2007 as reported to us by the issuer.

 

 

(c)

Number of shares as to which such person has:

 

 

(i)

Sole power to vote or to direct the vote

 

 

1,849,629

 

 

(ii)

Shared power to vote or to direct the vote

 

 

Not applicable.

 

 

(iii)
