Our Business
Overview
We are a medical device company that develops, manufactures and markets innovative,
proprietary products for the treatment of voiding dysfunctions. Our minimally invasive products
treat urinary incontinence and overactive bladder symptoms. We believe that our company is
uniquely positioned because we offer a broad and diverse set of products to address the various
preferences of doctors and patients, as well as the quality of life issues presented by voiding
dysfunctions. We currently offer three medical devices for the treatment of incontinence and
overactive bladder symptoms.
Market
Voiding dysfunctions affect urinary or fecal control and can result in unwanted leakage
(urinary or fecal incontinence) or uncontrolled bladder sensations (overactive bladder). The
Agency for Health Care Policy and Research (AHCPR), a division of the Public Health Service, U.S.
Department of Health and Human Services, estimates that urinary incontinence affects about 13
million people in the United States, of which 85% (11 million) are women. AHCPR estimates the
total cost of treating incontinence (management and curative approaches) of all types in the United
States as $16 billion. Overactive bladder (OAB) is a prevalent and challenging urologic problem
affecting an estimated 34 million Americans. Historically, only a small percentage of the patients
suffering from these disorders have sought treatment. In recent years, however, the number of
people seeking treatment has grown as a result of the publicity associated with new minimally
invasive treatment alternatives.
When patients seek treatment, physicians generally assess the severity of the symptoms as
mild, moderate or severe. Regardless of the degree of severity, however, patients will often
consider drug therapy and minimally invasive treatment first. We believe that our company is
uniquely positioned because we provide a broad product offering of minimally invasive solutions.
Strategy
Our goal is to gain market share in the voiding dysfunction market by increasing sales of our
existing products and expanding our portfolio of minimally invasive products for the treatment of
voiding dysfunctions, with a particular focus on products and applications for outpatient and
office-based procedures. We believe that, with our suite of innovative products, we can
increasingly garner the attention of key physicians, independent sales representatives and
distributors to enhance market acceptance of our products. The key elements of our strategy are
to:
|
|
|
Focus on office-based solutions for physicians. |
|
|
|
|
Grow our United States sales and international distribution. |
|
|
|
|
Educate physicians and patients about the benefits of Urgent PC. |
|
|
|
|
Provide patient-driven alternatives. |
|
|
|
|
Develop, license or acquire new products. |

Our Products
Macroplastique® is a minimally invasive, implantable soft tissue bulking agent for the
treatment of urinary incontinence. When Macroplastique is injected into tissue around the urethra,
it stabilizes and bulks tissues close to the urethra, thereby providing the surrounding muscles
with increased capability to control the release of urine. Macroplastique has been sold for
urological indications in over 40 countries outside the United States since 1991. In October 2006,
we received from FDA pre-market approval of Macroplastique for the treatment of female stress
urinary incontinence. We expect to begin marketing Macroplastique in the United States in
early 2007.
I-Stop is a minimally invasive biocompatible, polypropylene, tension-free sling for the
treatment of female urinary incontinence. Our I-Stop sling can correct stress urinary incontinence
by providing tension-free hammock-type support for the urethra to prevent its downward movement and
the associated leakage of urine. In August 2005, FDA granted 510(k) clearance for the sale of
I-Stop within the United States.
The Urgent® PC neuromodulation system is a minimally invasive device designed for office-based
treatment of overactive bladder symptoms of urge incontinence, urinary urgency and urinary
frequency. This product uses percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation to deliver an electrical pulse
that travels to the sacral nerve plexus, a control center for bladder function. We received
regulatory approvals for the sale of Urgent PC in the United States and Canada in October 2005, and
in Europe in November 2005. Subsequently, we launched the product for sale in those markets. We
developed a second generation Urgent PC product during 2006. Following CE mark approval and 510(k)
clearance, we launched this product for sale in Europe in September 2006 and in the United States
in October 2006.
Sales and Marketing
We are focusing our sales and marketing efforts primarily on office-based and outpatient
surgery-based urologists, urogynecologists and gynecologists with significant patient volume. We
believe the United States is a significant opportunity for future sales of our products. In order
to grow our United States business, we recently established a sales organization, consisting of a
direct field sales management team and independent sales representatives, and a marketing
organization to market our products directly to our customers. By expanding our United States
presence, we intend to develop long-standing relationships with leading physicians treating
incontinence and overactive bladder symptoms.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider
the risk factors set forth below and all other information contained or incorporated by reference
in this prospectus before purchasing our common stock. If the following risks actually occur, our
business, financial condition and results of operations could be seriously harmed, the price of our
common stock could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment.
Risks Relating to Our Company and Industry
We continue to incur losses and may never reach profitability
We have incurred net losses in each of the last six fiscal years. As of September 30, 2006,
we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $14.4 million primarily as a result of costs
relating to the development, including seeking regulatory approvals, and commercialization of our
Macroplastique, I-Stop sling, Urgent PC neuromodulation system and related products. We expect our
operating expenses relating to sales and marketing activities and product development will continue
to increase during the foreseeable future. To achieve profitability, we must generate
substantially more revenue than we have in prior years. Our ability to achieve significant revenue
growth will depend, in large part, on our ability to obtain FDA approval to market Macroplastique,
and our ability to achieve widespread market acceptance for our products, which we cannot guarantee
will happen. We may never realize significant revenue from the sale of our products or be
profitable.
We will require additional financing in the future which may not be available to us when required,
or may be available only on unfavorable terms.
Our future liquidity and capital requirements will depend on numerous factors including: the
timing and cost involved in manufacturing scale-up and in expanding our sales, marketing and
distribution capabilities in the United States markets; the cost and effectiveness of our marketing
and sales efforts with respect to our existing products in international markets; the effect of
competing technologies and market and regulatory developments; and the cost involved in protecting
our proprietary rights. Because we have yet to achieve profitability and generate
positive cash flows, we need to raise additional debt or equity financing in fiscal
2007 to continue funding for product development and continued expansion of our sales and
marketing activities. There can be no guarantee that we will be successful, as we currently have
no committed sources of, or other arrangements with respect to, additional equity or
debt financing. We therefore cannot ensure that we will obtain
additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all.
On October 27, 2006, we filed a registration statement with the SEC to register a proposed
offering of up to $12 million of our common stock. The offering is structured as a best efforts offering,
whereby the selling agent is only required to use its best efforts to sell our shares and has no
firm commitment or obligation to purchase any of the shares in the offering. The offering is not
conditioned on the sale of a minimum dollar amount or number of shares. As a result, the amount of
proceeds we raise in the offering may be substantially less than the $12 million we need to support
our current growth plans. If we are unable to raise substantial funds in the offering, we will
need to rely on our existing credit facilities and curtail our product development, clinical
studies and sales and marketing activities in order to conserve cash and maintain our operations
through the balance of fiscal 2007. This would adversely impact our future business and
prospects. In any event, because we are not profitable, we will need to raise
substantial additional financing to support our operations and planned growth activities through
fiscal 2008 and beyond. Any equity financing could substantially dilute your equity
interests in our company and any debt financing could impose significant financial and operational
restrictions on us.
We are primarily dependent on sales of one product and our business would suffer if sales of this
product decline.
We are dependent on sales of our products that contain our Macroplastique bulking agent. Our
Macroplastique product line accounted for 67% and 76%, respectively, of total net sales during
fiscal 2006 and 2005. If our Macroplastique products were no longer available for sale in any key
market because of regulatory, intellectual property or any other reason, our net sales from these
products would significantly decline. A significant decline in our net sales could negatively
impact our product development activities, our business prospects and profitability.
5
We are unable to predict how quickly or how broadly our products will be accepted by the market.
If demand for our products fails to develop as we expect, our revenues will decline or we may be
unable to increase our revenues and be profitable.
Although many of our products have received FDA approval, market acceptance is uncertain. Our
failure to achieve sufficient market acceptance will significantly limit our ability to generate
revenue and be profitable. Market acceptance of our products will depend on our ability to
demonstrate the safety, clinical efficacy, perceived benefits and cost-effectiveness of our
products compared to products or treatment options of our competitors, and to train physicians in
the proper application of our products. We cannot ensure that we will be successful in educating
the marketplace about the benefits of using our products. Even if customers accept our products,
this acceptance may not translate into sales if our competitors have developed similar products
that our customers prefer. If our products do not achieve increasing market acceptance in the
United States and internationally, our revenues will decline or we may be unable to increase our
revenues and be profitable.
Our products and facilities are subject to extensive regulation with which compliance is costly and
which exposes us to penalties for non-compliance. We may not be able to obtain required regulatory
approvals for our products in a cost-effective manner or at all, which could adversely affect our
business and results of operations.
The production and marketing of our products and our ongoing research and development,
preclinical testing and clinical trial activities are subject to extensive regulation and review by
numerous governmental authorities both in the United States and abroad. United States and foreign
regulations applicable to medical devices are wide-ranging and govern, among other things, the
testing, marketing and pre-market review of new medical devices, in addition to regulating
manufacturing practices, reporting, advertising, exporting, labeling and record keeping procedures.
We are required to obtain FDA approval or clearance before we can market our products in the
United States and certain foreign countries. The regulatory process requires significant time,
effort and expenditures to bring our products to market, and we cannot ensure that any of our
products will be approved for sale. Any failure to obtain regulatory approvals or clearances could
prevent us from successfully marketing our products, which could adversely affect our business and
results of operations. Our failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements could result
in governmental agencies:
|
|
|
imposing fines and penalties on us; |
|
|
|
|
preventing us from manufacturing or selling our products; |
|
|
|
|
bringing civil or criminal charges against us; |
|
|
|
|
delaying the introduction of our new products into the market; |
|
|
|
|
enforcing operating restrictions; |
|
|
|
|
recalling or seizing our products; or |
|
|
|
|
withdrawing or denying approvals or clearances for our products. |
If any or all of the foregoing were to occur, we may not be able to meet the demands of our
customers and our customers may cancel orders or purchase products from our competitors, which
could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Even if we receive regulatory approval or clearance of a product, the approval or clearance
could limit the uses for which we may label and promote the product, which may limit the market for
our products. Further, for a marketed product, its manufacturer and manufacturing facilities are
subject to periodic reviews and inspections by FDA and foreign regulatory authorities. Subsequent
discovery of problems with a product, manufacturer or facility may result in restrictions on the
product, manufacturer or facility, including withdrawal of the product from the market or other
enforcement actions. In addition, regulatory agencies may not agree with the extent or speed of
corrective actions relating to product or manufacturing problems.
6
If additional regulatory requirements are implemented in the foreign countries in which we
sell our products, the cost of developing or selling our products may increase. In addition, we
may rely on our distributors outside the United States in seeking regulatory approval to market our
devices in particular countries. To the extent we do so, we are dependent on persons outside of
our direct control to make regulatory submissions and secure approvals, and we do or will not have
direct access to health care agencies in those markets to ensure timely regulatory approvals or
prompt resolution of regulatory or compliance matters. If our distributors fail to obtain the
required approvals or do not do so in a timely manner, our net sales from our international
operations and our results of operations may be adversely affected.
In addition, our business and properties are subject to federal, state and local laws and
regulations relating to the protection of the environment, natural resources and worker health and
safety and the use, management, storage, and disposal of hazardous substances, wastes, and other
regulated materials. The costs of complying with these various environmental requirements, as they
now exist or may be altered in the future, could adversely affect our financial condition and
results of operations.
If third parties claim that we infringe upon their intellectual property rights, we may incur
liabilities and costs and may have to redesign or discontinue selling the affected product.
The medical device industry is litigious with respect to patents and other intellectual
property rights. Companies operating in our industry routinely seek patent protection for their
product designs, and many of our principal competitors have large patent portfolios. Companies in
the medical device industry have used intellectual property litigation to gain a competitive
advantage. Whether a product infringes a patent involves complex legal and factual issues, the
determination of which is often uncertain. We face the risk of claims that we have infringed on
third parties intellectual property rights. Our efforts to identify and avoid infringing on third
parties intellectual property rights may not always be successful. Any claims of patent or other
intellectual property infringement, even those without merit, could:
|
|
|
be expensive and time consuming to defend; |
|
|
|
|
result in us being required to pay significant damages to third parties; |
|
|
|
|
cause us to cease making or selling products that incorporate the challenged intellectual property; |
|
|
|
|
require us to redesign, reengineer or rebrand our products, if feasible; |
|
|
|
|
require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements in order to obtain the right to
use a third partys intellectual property, which agreements may not be available on terms
acceptable to us or at all; |
|
|
|
|
divert the attention of our management; or |
|
|
|
|
result in our customers or potential customers deferring or limiting their purchases or
use of the affected products until resolution of the litigation. |
In addition, new patents obtained by our competitors could threaten a products continued life
in the market even after it has already been introduced.
If we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property rights, we may not be able to
compete effectively and we may not be profitable.
Our success depends in part on our ability to protect our proprietary rights to the
technologies used in our products. We rely on patent protection, as well as a combination of
trademark laws and confidentiality, noncompetition and other contractual arrangements to protect
our proprietary technology. However, these legal means afford only limited protection and may not
adequately protect our rights or permit us to gain or keep any competitive advantage. Our patents
and patent applications if issued, may not be broad enough to prevent competitors from introducing
similar products into the market. Our patents, if challenged or if we attempt to enforce them, may
not necessarily be upheld by the courts of any jurisdiction. In addition, patent protection in
foreign countries may be different from patent protection under United States laws and may not be
favorable to us. As a result, we may not be able to compete effectively.
7
We also rely on unpatented proprietary technology. We cannot ensure that we can meaningfully
protect all of our rights in our unpatented proprietary technology or that others will not
independently develop substantially equivalent products or processes or otherwise gain access to
our unpatented proprietary technology. We attempt to protect our trade secrets and other
unpatented proprietary technology through the use of confidentiality agreements and noncompetition
agreements with our current employees and with other parties to whom we have divulged trade
secrets. However, these agreements may not be enforceable or may not provide meaningful protection
for our proprietary information in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure or other breaches of
the agreements or in the event competitors discover or independently develop similar proprietary
information.
Product liability claims, recalls and improper use of our products could each adversely affect our
business and results of operations.
The manufacture and sale of medical devices exposes us to significant risk of product
liability claims, some of which may have a negative impact on our business. Our existing products
were developed relatively recently and defects or risks that we have not yet identified may give
rise to product liability claims. Our existing $2 million of worldwide product liability insurance
coverage may be inadequate to protect us from any liabilities we may incur or we may not be able to
maintain adequate product liability insurance at acceptable rates. If a product liability claim or
series of claims is brought against us for uninsured liabilities or in excess of our insurance
coverage and it is ultimately determined that we are liable, our business could suffer.
Additionally, we could experience a material design or manufacturing failure in our products, a
quality system failure, other safety issues or heightened regulatory scrutiny that would warrant a
recall of some of our products. A recall of any of our products likely would be costly, would be
uninsured and could also result in increased product liability claims. Further, while we train our
physician customers on the proper usage of our products, we cannot ensure that they will implement
our instructions accurately. If our products are used incorrectly by our customers, injury may
result and this could give rise to product liability claims against us. Any losses that we may
suffer from any liability claims, and the effect that any product liability litigation may have
upon the reputation and marketability of our products, may divert managements attention from other
matters and may have a negative impact on our business and our results of operations.
If we are not able to successfully scale-up production of our products, our sales and revenues will
suffer.
In order to commercialize our products in the United States and international markets, we need
to be able to produce, or subcontract the production, of our products in a cost-effective way on a
large scale to meet demand, while maintaining high standards for quality and reliability. If we
fail to successfully commercialize our products, we will not be profitable.
We may experience manufacturing and control problems as we begin to scale-up our future
manufacturing operations, and we may not be able to scale-up manufacturing in a timely manner or at
a reasonable cost to enable production in sufficient quantities. If we experience any of these
problems, we may not be able to have our products manufactured and delivered in a timely manner.
The I-Stop sling is designed and manufactured by CL Medical in France for our distribution in
the United States and the United Kingdom. If CL Medical experiences problems with manufacturing or
control, encounters regulatory or compliance problems, or incurs delays, we may not receive the
I-Stop product in a timely manner. This would limit our ability to generate revenues.
The loss or interruption of materials from any of our key suppliers could slow down the manufacture
of our products, which would limit our ability to generate sales and revenues.
We currently purchase several key materials used in our products from single source suppliers.
Our reliance on a limited number of suppliers subjects us to several risks, including an inability
to obtain an adequate supply of required materials, price increases, untimely delivery and
difficulties in qualifying alternative suppliers. We cannot be sure that acceptable alternative
arrangements could be made on a timely basis. Additionally, the qualification of materials and
processes as a result of a supplier change could be deemed as unacceptable to regulatory
authorities and cause delays and increased costs due to additional test requirements. A
significant interruption in the supply of materials, for any reason, could delay the manufacture
and sale of our products, which would limit our ability to generate revenues.
8
If we are not able to maintain sufficient quality controls, approval of our products by the
European Union, FDA or other relevant authorities could be delayed or denied and our sales and
revenues will suffer.
Approval of our products could be delayed by FDA, European Union or other related authorities
if our manufacturing facilities do not comply with applicable manufacturing requirements. FDAs
Quality System Regulations impose elaborate testing, control, document and other quality assurance
procedures. Canada and the European Union also impose requirements on quality control systems of
manufacturers, which are inspected and certified on a periodic basis and may be subject to
additional unannounced inspections. Failure by us or CL Medical to comply with these requirements
could prevent us from obtaining FDA approval for our products and from marketing our products in
the United States. We cannot ensure that our manufacturing facilities will comply with applicable
requirements on a timely basis or at all.
Even with approval to market our products in the European Union, the United States and other
countries, we must continue to comply with relevant manufacturing requirements. If violations of
applicable requirements are noted during periodic inspections of our manufacturing facilities, we
may not be able to continue to market our products and our revenues could be materially adversely
affected.
If we are not able to attract, retain and motivate our sales force and expand our distribution
channels, our sales and revenues will suffer.
To date, we have sold our products in foreign markets through a network of independent
distributors and our direct sales force. Our ability to increase product sales in foreign markets
will largely depend on our ability to develop and maintain relationships with our existing and
additional distributors and to recruit, retain and motivate additional sales personnel. We may not
be able to retain distributors who are willing to commit the necessary resources to market and sell
our products to the level of our expectations. In the United States, we have a sales organization
consisting of a direct sales management group and a nationwide network of independent sales
representatives and a marketing organization to market our products directly and support our
distributor organizations. We anticipate continuing to expand our sales and marketing
organization, as needed to support our growth. We have and will continue to incur significant
continued and additional expenses to support this organization. We will need to raise additional
debt or equity financing to expand our sales and marketing organizations. We may not be able to
recruit, train, motivate or retain qualified sales and marketing personnel or independent sales
representatives. Failure to expand our distribution channels or to recruit, retain and motivate
qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on our product sales and revenues.
If we are not able to acquire or license other products, our business and future growth prospects
could suffer.
As part of our growth strategy, we intend to acquire or license additional products and
product candidates for development and commercialization. The success of this strategy depends
upon our ability to identify, select and acquire the right products. In fact, we have an option to
acquire the assets of CystoMedix, Inc., the company that has licensed the Urgent® PC technology to
us.
Any product candidate we license or acquire may require additional development efforts prior
to sale, including clinical testing and approval by FDA. Product candidates may fail to receive or
experience a significant delay in receiving FDA approval. In addition, we cannot ensure that any
approved products that we acquire or license will be manufactured economically, successfully
commercialized or widely accepted in the marketplace. Other companies, including those with
greater financial, marketing and sales resources, may compete with us for the acquisition or
license of product candidates or approved products. We may not be able to acquire or license the
right to other products on terms that we find acceptable, or at all.
Even if we complete future acquisitions, our business, financial condition and the results of
operations could be negatively affected because:
|
|
|
we may be unable to integrate the acquired business successfully and realize anticipated
economic, operational and other benefits in a timely manner; |
|
|
|
|
the acquisition may disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and divert our resources; and |
|
|
|
|
we may not have or be able to secure adequate financing to develop or maintain the acquired business. |
9
The loss of our key customers could result in a material loss of revenues.
During fiscal 2006, we had two customers that individually accounted for approximately 14% and
11% of our net sales. During fiscal 2005, the same two customers individually accounted for
approximately 15% and 11% of our net sales. As a result, we face the risk that one or more of our
key customers may decrease its or their business with us or terminate its or their relationships
with us. Any decrease in business from these customers, if we are unable to replace them, could
result in a material decrease in our revenue. This could adversely affect our financial condition.
Negative publicity regarding the use of silicone material in medical devices could harm our
business and result in a material decrease in revenues.
Macroplastique is comprised of medical grade, heat-vulcanized polydimethylsiloxane, which
results in a solid, flexible silicone elastomer. In the early 1990s, the United States breast
implant industry became the subject of significant controversies surrounding the possible effects
upon the human body of the use of silicone gel in breast implants, resulting in product liability
litigation and leading to the bankruptcy of several companies, including our former parent,
Bioplasty, Inc. We use only medical grade solid silicone material in our tissue bulking products
and not semi-liquid silicone gel, as was used in breast implants. Negative publicity regarding the
use of silicone materials in our products or in other medical devices could have a significant
adverse affect on the overall acceptance of our products. We cannot ensure that the use by us and
others of solid silicone in medical devices implanted in the human body will not result in negative
publicity.
The risks inherent in operating internationally and the risks of selling and shipping our products
and of purchasing our components and products internationally may adversely impact our net sales,
results of operations and financial condition.
We currently derive substantially all of our net sales from operations in international
markets. We expect non-United States sales to continue to represent a significant portion of our
revenues until we achieve sufficient market acceptance from United States customers of our
FDA-approved products. The sale and shipping of our products and services across international
borders, as well as the purchase of components and products from international sources, subject us
to extensive United States and foreign governmental trade regulations. Compliance with such
regulations is costly and exposes us to penalties for non-compliance. Any failure to comply with
applicable legal and regulatory obligations could impact us in a variety of ways that include, but
are not limited to, significant criminal, civil and administrative penalties, including
imprisonment of individuals, fines and penalties, denial of export privileges, seizure of
shipments, restrictions on certain business activities, and exclusion or debarment from government
contracting. Also, the failure to comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations could
result in the disruption of our shipping and sales activities.
In addition, most of the countries in which we sell our products are, to some degree, subject
to political, economic and social instability. Our international sales operations expose us and
our representatives, agents and distributors to risks inherent in operating in foreign
jurisdictions. These risks include:
|
|
|
the imposition of additional United States and foreign governmental controls or regulations; |
|
|
|
|
the imposition of costly and lengthy new export licensing requirements; |
|
|
|
|
the imposition of United States and international sanctions against a country, company,
person or entity with whom we do business that would restrict or prohibit continued
business with the sanctioned country, company, person or entity; |
|
|
|
|
political and economic instability; |
|
|
|
|
fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies; |
|
|
|
|
a shortage of high-quality sales people and distributors; |
10
|
|
|
loss of any key personnel that possess proprietary knowledge, or who are otherwise
important to our success in certain international markets; |
|
|
|
|
changes in third-party reimbursement policies that may require some of the patients who
receive our products to directly absorb medical costs or that may necessitate the reduction
of the selling prices of our products; |
|
|
|
|
changes in duties and tariffs, license obligations and other non-tariff barriers to trade; |
|
|
|
|
the imposition of new trade restrictions; |
|
|
|
|
the imposition of restrictions on the activities of foreign agents, representatives and distributors; |
|
|
|
|
scrutiny of foreign tax authorities which could result in significant fines, penalties
and additional taxes being imposed on us; |
|
|
|
|
international pricing pressure; |
|
|
|
|
laws and business practices favoring local companies; |
|
|
|
|
longer payment cycles; |
|
|
|
|
difficulties in enforcing agreements and collecting receivables through certain foreign legal systems; |
|
|
|
|
difficulties in enforcing or defending intellectual property rights; and |
|
|
|
|
exposure to different legal and political standards due to our conducting business in approximately 40 countries. |
We cannot ensure that one or more of these factors will not harm our business. Any material
decrease in our international sales would adversely impact our net sales, results of operations and
financial condition. Our international sales are predominately in Europe. In Europe, health care
regulation and reimbursement for medical devices vary significantly from country to country. This
changing environment could adversely affect our ability to sell our products in some European
countries.
Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates could negatively impact our results of operations.
Because our international sales are denominated primarily in euros, currency fluctuations in
countries where we do business may render our products less price competitive than those of
competing companies whose sales are denominated in weaker currencies. We report our financial
results in U.S. dollars, and fluctuations in the value of either the dollar or the currencies in
which we transact business can have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial
condition. Consequently, we have exposure to foreign currency exchange risks. We do not hedge any
of our foreign currency risk.
If we are unable to continue to develop and market new products and technologies, we may experience
a decrease in demand for our products or our products could become obsolete, and our business would
suffer.
We are continually engaged in product development and improvement programs, and we expect new
products to represent a significant component of our future business. We may not be able to
compete effectively with our competitors unless we can keep up with existing or new products and
technologies in the urinary and fecal incontinence market. If we do not continue to introduce new
products and technologies, or if those products and technologies are not accepted, we may not be
successful and our business would suffer. Moreover, our clinical trials have durations of several
years and it is possible that competing therapies, such as drug therapies, may be introduced while
our products are still undergoing clinical trials. This could reduce the potential demand for our
products and negatively impact our business prospects. Additionally, our competitors new products
and technologies may beat our products to market, may be more effective or less expensive than our
products or render our products obsolete.
11
The marketing of our products requires a significant amount of time and expense and we may not have
the resources to successfully market our products, which would adversely affect our business and
results of operations.
The marketing of our products requires a significant amount of time and expense in order to
identify the physicians who may use our products, invest in training and education and employ a
sales force that is large enough to interact with the targeted physicians. We may not have
adequate resources to market our products successfully against larger competitors which have more
resources than we do. If we cannot market our products successfully, our business and results of
operations would be adversely affected.
The size and resources of our competitors may allow them to compete more effectively than we can,
which could adversely affect our potential profitability.
Our products compete against similar medical devices and other treatment methods, including
drugs, for treating urinary and fecal voiding dysfunctions. Many of our competitors have
significantly greater financial, research and development, manufacturing and marketing resources
than we have. Our competitors could use these resources to develop or acquire products that are
safer, more effective, less invasive, less expensive or more readily accepted than our products.
Their products could make our technology and products obsolete or noncompetitive. Our competitors
could also devote greater resources to the marketing and sale of their products and adopt more
aggressive pricing policies than we can. If we are not able to compete effectively, then we may
not be profitable.
We are dependent on the availability of third-party reimbursement for our revenues.
Our success depends on the availability of reimbursement for the cost of our products from
third-party payors, such as government health authorities, private health insurance plans and
managed care organizations. There is no uniform policy for reimbursement in the United States and
foreign countries. We believe that the ease of obtaining, and the amount of, reimbursement for
urinary incontinence treatment has a significant impact on the decisions of health care providers
regarding treatment methods and products. Accordingly, changes in the extent of coverage or a
reduction in reimbursement rates under any or all third-party reimbursement programs may cause a
decline in purchases of our products, which would materially adversely affect the market for our
products. Alternatively, we might respond to reduced reimbursement rates by reducing the prices of
our products, which could also reduce our revenues.
If physicians do not recommend and endorse our products, our sales may decline or we may be unable
to increase our sales and profits.
In order for us to sell our products, physicians must recommend and endorse them. We may not
obtain the necessary recommendations or endorsements from physicians. Acceptance of our products
depends on educating the medical community as to the distinctive characteristics, perceived
benefits, safety, clinical efficacy, cost-effectiveness and reimburseability of our products
compared to products of our competitors, and on training physicians in the proper application of
our products. If we are not successful in obtaining the recommendations or endorsements of
physicians for our products, our sales may decline or we may be unable to increase our sales and
profits.
Our business strategy relies on assumptions about the market for our products, which, if incorrect,
would adversely affect our business prospects and profitability.
We are focused on the market for minimally invasive therapies used to treat voiding
dysfunctions. We believe that the aging of the general population will continue and that these
trends will increase the need for our products. However, the projected demand for our products
could materially differ from actual demand if our assumptions regarding these trends and acceptance
of our products by the medical community prove to be incorrect or do not materialize. Actual
demand for our products could also be affected if drug therapies gain more widespread acceptance as
a viable alternative treatment, which in each case would adversely affect our business prospects
and profitability.
12
Proposals to modify the health care system in the United States or other countries could affect the
pricing of our products. If we cannot sell our products at the prices we plan to, our margins and
profitability could be adversely affected.
Proposals to modify the current health care system in the United States to improve access to
health care and control its costs are continually being considered by the federal and state
governments. We anticipate that the United States Congress and state legislatures will continue to
review and assess alternative health care reform proposals. We cannot predict whether these reform
proposals will be adopted, when they may be adopted or what impact they may have on us if they are
adopted. Any spending decreases or other significant changes in government programs such as
Medicare could adversely affect the pricing of our products.
Like the United States, foreign countries have considered health care reform proposals and
could materially alter their government-sponsored health care programs by reducing reimbursement
rates. Any reduction in reimbursement rates under United States or foreign health care programs
could negatively affect the pricing of our products. If we are not able to charge a sufficient
amount for our products, our margins and our profitability will be adversely affected.
If our information systems fail or if we experience an interruption in their operation, our
business and results of operations could be adversely affected.
The efficient operation of our business is dependent on our management information systems.
We rely on our management information systems to effectively manage accounting and financial
functions, order entry, order fulfillment and inventory replenishment processes, and to maintain
our research and development and clinical data. The failure of our management information systems
to perform as we anticipate could disrupt our business and product development and could result in
decreased sales, increased overhead costs, excess inventory and product shortages, causing our
business and results of operations to suffer. In addition, our management information systems are
vulnerable to damage or interruption from:
|
|
|
earthquake, fire, flood and other natural disasters; |
|
|
|
|
terrorist attacks and attacks by computer viruses or hackers; and |
|
|
|
|
power loss or computer systems, Internet, telecommunications or data network failure. |
Any such interruption could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
If we lose the services of our chief executive officer or other key personnel, we may not be able
to manage our operations and meet our strategic objectives.
Our future success depends, in large part, on the continued service of our senior management.
We have no key person insurance with respect to any of our senior managers, and any loss or
interruption of their services could significantly reduce our ability to effectively manage our
operations and implement our business strategies. Also, we depend on the continued service of key
managerial, scientific, sales and technical personnel, as well as our ability to continue to
attract and retain additional highly qualified personnel. We compete for such personnel with other
companies, academic institutions, government entities and other organizations. Any loss or
interruption of the services of our other key personnel could also significantly reduce our ability
to effectively manage our operations and grow our business because we cannot ensure that we would
be able to find an appropriate replacement should the need arise.
We also compete for experienced medical device sales personnel. If we are unable to hire and
retain qualified sales personnel, our sales could be negatively impacted.

Risks Relating to this Offering
You may be unable to sell your investment.
There is only a limited trading market for our common stock, which is traded on the AMEX.
Transactions in our common stock may lack the volume, liquidity and orderliness necessary to
maintain a liquid and active trading market. Accordingly, an investor should consider the
potential lack of liquidity before investing in our common stock.
Our stock price may fluctuate and be volatile.
The market price of our common stock may be subject to significant fluctuation due to the
following factors, among others:
|
|
|
variations in our quarterly financial results; |
|
|
|
|
developments regarding regulatory clearances or approvals of our products; |
|
|
|
|
market acceptance of our products; |
|
|
|
|
the success of our efforts to acquire or license additional products; |
|
|
|
|
announcements of new products or technologies by us or our competitors; |
|
|
|
|
developments regarding our patents and proprietary rights or those of our competitors; |
|
|
|
|
developments in United States or international reimbursement systems; |
|
|
|
|
changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance or interpretations; |
|
|
|
|
sales of substantial amounts of our stock by existing shareholders; and |
|
|
|
|
general economic conditions. |
The stock market in recent years has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that
have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of affected companies.
These broad market fluctuations may cause the price of our common stock to fall abruptly or remain
significantly depressed.
Future sales of our common stock in the public market could lower our share price.
The market price of our common stock could decline due to sales by our existing shareholders
of a large number of shares of our common stock or the perception that these sales could occur.
These sales could also make it more difficult for us to raise capital through the sale of common
stock at a time and price we deem appropriate.
In August 2006, we completed a private placement in which we sold 1,389,999 shares of our
common stock at $1.50 per share. In April 2005, we completed a private placement in which we sold
2,147,142 shares of our common stock at $3.50 per share. All of these shares have been registered
for resale under the Securities Act and are freely tradeable.
The following securities that may be exercised into shares of our common stock were issued and
outstanding as of October 9, 2006:
|
|
|
stock options to purchase 2,213,734 shares of our common stock at a weighted average
exercise price of $3.56 per share; and |
|
|
|
|
warrants to purchase 2,751,646 shares of our common stock at a weighted average exercise
price of $3.39 per share. |
14
Further, if we exercise our option to acquire the assets of CystoMedix, we will need to issue
our common stock to CystoMedix for the purchase price.
We will be exposed to risks relating to evaluations of controls required by Section 404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public
disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and related regulations implemented by the SEC, are
creating uncertainty for public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance costs and
making some activities more time consuming. We will be evaluating our internal controls systems to
allow management to report on, and our independent auditors to attest to, our internal controls.
We will be performing the system and process evaluation and testing (and any necessary remediation)
required to comply with the management certification and auditor attestation requirements of
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. While we anticipate being able to fully implement the
requirements relating to internal controls and all other aspects of Section 404 by our March 31,
2008 deadline, we cannot be certain as to the timing of completion of our evaluation, testing and
remediation actions or the impact of the same on our operations. If we are not able to implement
the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner or with adequate compliance, we may be subject
to sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities, including the SEC. This type of action
could adversely affect our financial results or investors confidence in our company and our
ability to access capital markets and could cause our stock price to decline. In addition, the
controls and procedures that we will implement may not comply with all of the relevant rules and
regulations of the SEC. If we fail to develop and maintain effective controls and procedures, we
may be unable to provide the required financial information in a timely and reliable manner.
Further, if we acquire any company in the future, we may incur substantial additional costs to
bring the acquired companys systems into compliance with Section 404.
Changes in accounting standards regarding stock option plans could limit the desirability of
granting stock options, which could harm our ability to attract and retain employees, and would
also negatively impact our results of operations.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based
Payments, SFAS 123(R), which requires all companies to treat the fair value of stock options
granted to employees as an expense, beginning in the first fiscal year that begins after December
15, 2005, for small business issuers. Accordingly, SFAS 123(R) became effective for us beginning
April 1, 2006. For our fiscal 2006 and prior years, we generally have not recorded compensation
expense in connection with stock option grants to employees. Because we are now required to
expense the fair value of employee stock option grants, granting stock options is less attractive
because of the additional expense recognized associated with these grants, which will negatively
impact our results of operations. If we had adopted the fair value method for fiscal 2006 and 2005,
our net loss for the respective fiscal years would have been $3,062,324, and $2,321,745 higher than
reported and net loss per share would have increased by $0.46, and $0.50 per common share,
respectively. Nevertheless, stock options are an important employee recruitment and retention tool,
and we may not be able to attract and retain key personnel if we reduce the scope of our employee
stock option program.
In February 2006, our board of directors approved a plan to accelerate, effective February 2,
2006, the vesting of out-of-the-money, unvested stock options previously granted to our employees,
officers and directors. An option was considered out-of-the-money if the stated exercise price
exceeded $2.85, the then closing price of our common stock. Pursuant to this action, options to
purchase approximately 400,000 shares of our common stock with a weighted average exercise price of
$4.49 per share became exercisable immediately.
We accelerated the vesting of these options to minimize the amount of compensation expense we
must recognize upon adoption of SFAS No. 123(R). None of these options had intrinsic value at the
acceleration date under APB 25. We expect that the acceleration of the vesting of these options
reduced the pre-tax stock option expense by approximately $1.4 million, in the aggregate,
calculated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, that we would have otherwise recognized
over the next three fiscal years, upon adoption of SFAS No. 123(R). We have included the charge
attributed to the accelerated vesting of the options in the pro forma disclosures to our
consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006. However, certain
outstanding options, with a cashless exercise provision, and certain outstanding options classified
as liabilities, could result in a significant charge to compensation expense in future periods, as
we will mark those options to fair value at each reporting period until settlement. Also,
additional options as granted to attract or retain new employees could result in significant charge
to compensation expense.
15
Our corporate documents and Minnesota law contain provisions that could discourage, delay or
prevent a change in control of our company.
Provisions in our articles of incorporation may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or
acquisition involving us that our shareholders may consider favorable. For example, our articles
of incorporation authorize our board of directors to issue up to 40 million shares of stock which,
without shareholder approval, the board of directors has the authority to attach special rights,
including voting and dividend rights. With these rights, the holders of such shares could make it
more difficult for a third party to acquire us. In addition, our articles of incorporation
provides for a staggered board of directors, whereby directors serve for three year terms, with
approximately one third of the directors coming up for reelection each year. Having a staggered
board will make it more difficult for a third party to obtain control of our board of directors
through a proxy contest, which may be a necessary step in an acquisition of us that is not favored
by our board of directors.
We are also subject to the anti-takeover provisions of Section 302A.673 of the Minnesota
Business Corporation Act. Under these provisions, if anyone becomes an interested shareholder,
we may not enter into a business combination with that person for four years without special
approval, which could discourage a third party from making a takeover offer and could delay or
prevent a change of control. For purposes of Section 302A.673, interested shareholder means,
generally, someone owning 10% or more of our outstanding voting stock or an affiliate of ours that
owned 10% or more of our outstanding voting stock during the past four years, subject to certain
exceptions.
We do not intend to declare dividends on our stock in the foreseeable future.
We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to
retain all future earnings, if any, for the operation and expansion of our business and, therefore,
do not anticipate declaring or paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.
Any payment of cash dividends on our common stock will be at the discretion of our board of
directors and will depend upon our results of operations, earnings, capital requirements, financial
condition, future prospects, contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant by our
board of directors. Therefore, you should not expect to receive dividend income from shares of our
common stock.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus contain
forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts are
forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our future financial position, business
strategy, and plans and objectives for future operations and products. The words may, will,
believe, expect, estimate, continue, anticipate, intend and similar expressions are

largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe
may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, business operations
and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks,
uncertainties and assumptions, including, among other things:
|
|
|
the highly competitive nature of the markets in which we sell our products; |
|
|
|
|
regulatory hurdles that may prevent, delay or make more expensive our introduction of products; |
|
|
|
|
the failure to continue developing innovative products; |
|
|
|
|
the loss of our customers; |
|
|
|
|
increases in prices for raw materials or the loss of key supplier contracts; |
|
|
|
|
employee slowdowns, strikes or similar actions; |
16

|
|
|
|
risks in connection with our operations outside the United States; |
|
|
|
|
conditions and changes in the medical device industry generally; |

|
|
the failure in protecting our intellectual property; |
|
|
|
|
exposure to competitors assertions of intellectual property claims; |
|
|
|
|
the failure to retain senior management or replace lost senior management; |
|
|
|
|
changes in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; |
|
|
|
|
changes in general economic and business conditions; |
|
|
|
|
changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates; |
|
|
|
|
introduction of competing products; |
|
|
|
|
lack of acceptance of new products; |
|
|
|
|
competitive pressures on the transactional sales and margins, and competition from
new market participants for our sales; |
|
|
|
|
adverse changes in applicable laws or regulations; |
|
|
|
|
the incurrence of additional debt, contingent liabilities and expenses in connection with future acquisitions; |
|
|
|
|
the failure to integrate effectively newly acquired operations; and |
|
|
|
|
the absence of expected returns from the amount of intangible assets we have recorded. |
We believe that the above factors are important, but not necessarily all of the important,
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any
forward-looking statement. Unpredictable or unknown factors could also have material adverse
effects on us. Since our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from
those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements, we cannot give any assurance
that any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will occur or, if any of them
do, what impact they will have on our results of operations and financial condition. All
forward-looking statements included in this prospectus are expressly qualified in their entirety by
the foregoing cautionary statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus. We do not undertake any obligation
to update, amend or clarify these forward-looking statements or the risk factors contained in this
prospectus, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be
required under federal securities laws.

USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling shareholders. The
proceeds, if any, we receive from the exercise of the warrants will be used for general corporate
purposes.
SELLING SHAREHOLDERS
The table below sets forth the name of each selling shareholder and the number of shares of
common stock that each selling shareholder is offering pursuant to this prospectus. None of the
selling shareholders has, or within the past three years has had, any material relationship with
us, except as officers and directors. Except as otherwise noted below, the address of each person
listed in the table is c/o Uroplasty, Inc., 5420 Feltl Road, Minnetonka, MN 55343.
The number of shares in the Shares Offered column represents all of the shares that each
selling shareholder may offer under this prospectus. We do not know when or in what amounts the
selling shareholder may offer shares for sale. The selling shareholders may choose not to sell any
shares offered by this prospectus. As a result, we cannot estimate the number of shares the
selling shareholders will hold after the completion of the offering. For purposes of the table
below, however, we have assumed that after completion of this offering none of the shares covered
by this prospectus will be held by the selling shareholders.
Beneficial ownership and the percentages shown in the following table are calculated in
accordance with the rules of the SEC. The percentages are based on 8,411,188 shares outstanding on
October 9, 2006. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to the table, to our knowledge, each
shareholder identified in the table possesses sole voting and investment power over its shares of
common stock, except for those jointly owned with that persons spouse.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling shareholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and
successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on
any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private
transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling shareholders may use
any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
|
|
|
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer
solicits investors; |
|
|
|
|
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent
but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the
transaction; |
|
|
|
|
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
|
|
|
|
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
|
|
|
|
privately negotiated transactions; |
|
|
|
|
to cover short sales made after the date that this Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC; |
|
|
|
|
broker-dealers may agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified number
of such shares at a stipulated price per share; |
|
|
|
|
a combination of any such methods of sale; and |
|
|
|
|
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The selling shareholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if
available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to
participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling
shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the
purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling shareholders do not expect these commissions
and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
The selling shareholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or
all of the shares owned by it and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations,
the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time under
this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable
provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling shareholders to include the pledgee,
transferee or other successors in interest as selling shareholders under this prospectus.
Upon our company being notified in writing by a selling shareholder that any material
arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of common stock through a block
trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker
or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b)
under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such selling shareholder and of the
participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such
shares of common stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to
such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any
investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus,
and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon our company being notified in
writing by a selling shareholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of
common stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with
applicable securities law.
25
The selling shareholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances,
in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling
beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
The selling shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the
shares may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection
with those sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any
profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions
or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling
expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of the shares will be paid by the selling
shareholders and/or the purchasers. Each selling shareholder has represented and warranted to us
that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of
such selling shareholders business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such
selling shareholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to
distribute any such securities.
We have advised each selling shareholder that it may not use shares registered on this
Registration Statement to cover short sales of common stock made prior to the date on which this
Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the SEC. If a selling shareholder
uses this prospectus for any sale of the common stock, it will be subject to the prospectus
delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling shareholder will be responsible to comply
with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and
regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to
such selling shareholder in connection with resales of its shares under this Registration
Statement.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but
we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock. If the selling shareholders
use this prospectus for any sale of the common stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act.

The validity of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus will be passed upon by

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment
to this Registration Statement:
(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together,
represent a fundamental change in the information in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value
of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or
high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed
with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
Calculation of Registration Fee___table in the effective Registration Statement; and
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in
the Registration Statement.
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained
in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or
section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that
is part of the Registration Statement..
(2) For determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities that
remain unsold at the end of the offering.
(4) For determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrants
annual report pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and,
where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plans annual report pursuant to Section 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration
Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with
the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it
has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-3 and
has duly caused this Amendment No. 3 to the Registration Statement (No. 333-128313) to be signed on
its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Minnetonka, State of
Minnesota, on December 15, 2006.
