ITEM 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Elliott Working Capital

$8,438,221

Elliott International Working Capital

$12,657,357

ITEM 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

Each of Elliott and Elliott International acquired the Common Stock beneficially owned by it in the ordinary course of its purchasing, selling and trading in securities. EICA has acted as investment manager to Elliott International in connection with Elliott International’s acquisition of beneficial ownership of Common Stock.

On May 18, 2007, Elliott and Elliott International communicated to the Issuer’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) their belief that the Board should be directing its attention to a prompt sale of the Issuer.

The Reporting Persons expressed to the Board their views that: i) the Issuer has leading technology in one of the fastest growing segments of the networking market, but has proven unable to capitalize on such technology; ii) the business segment in which the Issuer operates is becoming increasingly competitive; and iii) the Issuer’s technology may prove extremely valuable to a larger acquirer looking to enter the wide area network optimization market or to supplement its current product offering. The Reporting Persons believe that prompt action by the Board to commence a sales process is necessary.

Depending upon market conditions and other factors that it may deem material, each of Elliott and Elliott International may purchase additional shares of Common Stock and/or related securities or may dispose of all or a portion of the Common Stock or related securities that it now beneficially owns or may hereafter acquire.

 

 



 

 

The Reporting Persons reserve the right to further discuss and/or meet with management, the Board and other shareholders and/or formulate plans or proposals regarding the Issuer or its securities.

ITEM 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a)           Elliott owns 906,557 shares of Common Stock, constituting 2.5% of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Elliott owns its 906,557 shares of Common Stock through its wholly owned subsidiary, The Liverpool Limited Partnership, a Bermuda limited partnership.

Elliott International and EICA beneficially own an aggregate of 1,359,838 shares of Common Stock, constituting 3.8% of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

Collectively, Elliott, Elliott International and EICA beneficially own 2,266,395 shares of Common Stock constituting 6.3% of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

(b)           Elliott has the sole power to vote or direct the vote of, and to dispose or direct the disposition of, the shares of Common Stock owned by it.

Elliott International has the shared power with EICA to vote or direct the vote of, and to dispose or direct the disposition of, the shares of Common Stock owned by Elliott International. Information regarding each of Elliott International and EICA is set forth in Item 2 of this Schedule 13D and is expressly incorporated by reference herein.

(c)           The transactions effected by the Reporting Persons during the past sixty (60) days are set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto. No other transactions with respect to the Common Stock that are required to be reported on Schedule 13D were effected by any of the Reporting Persons during the past sixty (60) days.
