Item 8.01 Other Events

On October 26, 2009, the Registrant exercised its right to call all outstanding and unexercised warrants to purchase the Registrant’s common stock that were issued to investors in a private placement of shares and warrants in June 2006. Under the terms of the warrants, any warrants that remain outstanding and unexercised as of 6:30 p.m. New York Time on November 24, 2009, the call date, shall be automatically cancelled and no longer exercisable.
 
The Registrant has sent a written call notice to holders of the outstanding warrants. Until the call date and time, each outstanding warrant will continue to be exercisable for one share of common stock at an exercise price of $2.78 per share. The resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is covered by an effective registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
The amount of the cash proceeds that the Registrant will receive will depend upon the number of warrants exercised.  If all of the 184,262 presently outstanding called warrants are exercised, the Registrant will receive proceeds of approximately $0.5 million.
