Foster ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND The reporting person's name is Robert G. Foster, a U.S. citizen. The reporting person is President and principal stockholder of Commonwealth BioVentures, Inc. ("CBI"), a Massachusetts corporation and general partner of BioVenture Partners Limited Partnership ("BPLP"), a Delaware limited partnership, which is the general partner of two Delaware limited partnerships, Commonwealth BioVentures IV Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership ("Fund IV"), and Commonwealth BioVentures V Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership ("Fund V"), both of which are venture capital funds. The business address for the reporting person and the entities identified above is 4 Milk Street, Portland, ME 04101. During the last five years, none of the entities identified in the paragraph above or the reporting person have been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding has been or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER. The number of shares of common stock of the Issuer which the reporting person may be deemed to beneficially own is 125,483 (the "Shares"), which represents approximately 2.82% of the Issuer's reported outstanding shares of common stock as of February 28, 2002. 56,800 of the Shares represent Shares which the reporting person may be deemed to have the right to acquire within 60 days. The reporting person has the sole power to vote and the sole power to dispose of 62,142 of the Shares. By virtue of the relationships described in Item 2 above among the reporting person, Fund IV, Fund V, BVLP, and CBI, the reporting person shares the power to vote and dispose of (i) 10,484 of the Shares held in the name of Fund IV with Fund IV, BVLP and CBI, (ii) 36,297 of the Shares held in the name of Fund V with Fund V, BVLP and CBI and (iii) 1,490 of the Shares held in BVLP's name with BVLP and CBI. Additionally, the reporting person shares voting and dispositive power with respect to 15,070 shares of the Issuer's common stock held jointly by the reporting person and his former spouse. The reporting person ceased to be a beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Issuer's common stock on April 1, 2002 as a result of the transaction described in the paragraph below. Fund V, a venture fund, is in its last year of existence and has commenced liquidating fund investments in contemplation of its termination and winding up of its business. On April 1, 2002, Fund V distributed to its limited partners an aggregate of 150,000 shares of the Issuer's common stock registered in Fund V's name in accordance with the terms of Fund V's limited partnership agreement (the "Distribution"). The Distribution was effected solely as part of the reporting person's investment liquidation process and was not influenced by or otherwise based upon the reporting person's evaluation of the Issuer's current or anticipated business, financial, or stock price performance. SIGNATURE After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete, and correct. April 2, 2002 /s/ Robert G.
