OTHER EVENTS On January 3, 2001, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3, which we amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement, filed on January 24, 2001, and Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement, filed on December 21, 2001, registering up to an aggregate of $75,000,000 of our debt and equity securities, including shares of our common stock. On December 21, 2001, we entered into a common stock purchase agreement with Acqua Wellington North American Equities Fund, Ltd. for the sale, at our discretion, of up to $14,000,000 of our common stock at a discount to the market price. On January 8, 2002, under the purchase agreement, we priced the sale to Acqua Wellington of 2,147,239 shares of our common stock at $6.52 per share. The purchase agreement permits us to vary certain draw down terms. As permitted under the purchase agreement, we agreed to the following terms: a draw down pricing period of one day; a draw down amount of $14,000,000; and a discount of 6.7% of the daily volume weighted average price per share of our common stock on January 8, 2002. We estimate that our net proceeds from this sale will be approximately $13,825,000, after deducting the estimated sale expenses payable by us. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include funding research, development, sales and marketing, increasing our working capital, reducing indebtedness, and capital expenditures. Pending the application of the net proceeds, we expect to invest the proceeds in investment-grade, interest-bearing securities. We expect that the sale will settle on January 10, 2002.
