Item 3 as previously filed is amended in its entirety with the following paragraph:
 
None of the Reporting Persons has acquired any shares of Common Stock since the filing of Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D.  
Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction
 
Item 4 as previously filed is amended in its entirety with the following paragraphs:
 
Currently, the Reporting Persons have determined to attempt to change or influence the control of the Issuer and assert their stockholder rights.  As of April 7, 2010, Catalysis LLC, Catalysis Ltd and FCM executed a Demand for Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Demand Letter”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit B to this Amendment.  As specified in the Demand Letter, the Reporting Persons seek to remove five directors of the Issuer, remove any directors appointed between the date of the Demand Letter and the special meeting and repeal any By-law amendments adopted between the date of the Demand Letter and the special meeting.  The Reporting Persons may determine to change their investment intent with respect to the Issuer in the future.
 
Subject to market conditions and other factors, the Reporting Persons may purchase additional securities of the Issuer, maintain their present ownership of securities or sell some or all of the securities.  Except as described above in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any actions or events specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 to Schedule 13D.
 
The Reporting Persons intend to vote their respective shares of Common Stock individually as each Reporting Person deems appropriate from time to time. In determining whether to sell or retain their shares of Common Stock, the applicable Reporting Person will take into consideration such factors as it deems relevant, including, without limitation, Issuer’s business and prospects, anticipated future developments, existing and anticipated market conditions, general economic conditions, and other opportunities available to the Reporting Person. Each of the Reporting Persons reserves the right to acquire additional securities of the Issuer in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, to dispose of all or a portion of its holdings in Issuer’s securities, or to change their intention with respect to any or all of the matters referred to in this Item 4.
Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 
 

 


 
Item 5 as previously filed is amended in its entirety with the following paragraphs:
 
(a)       Catalysis LLC owns 1,718,864 shares of Common Stock (approximately 7.3% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. Catalysis Ltd owns 1,335,336 shares of Common Stock (approximately 5.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer).  FCM owns 152,640 shares of Common Stock (approximately 0.6% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer).  Because FCM has sole voting and investment power over Catalysis LLC’s and Catalysis Ltd’s security holdings, and John P. Francis, in his role as the manager of FCM, controls its voting and investment decisions, each of FCM and Mr. Francis may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the 3,206,840 shares of Common Stock owned of record by Catalysis LLC, Catalysis, Ltd. and FCM, which represent approximately 13.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
 
All ownership percentages are based on an assumed total of 23,456,063 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer as of March 29, 2010, as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2010.
Mr. Francis disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock.
 
 (b)      With respect to all of the shares of Common Stock that are held by Catalysis LLC, Catalysis Ltd. and FCM, Mr. Francis has the sole power to vote and dispose or direct the disposition of the Shares.
 
(c)       None of the Reporting Persons effected any transactions in the securities of the Issuer during the past 60 days or since the most recent filing on Schedule 13D.
 
(d)      Except as described above, no person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities of the Issuer.
 
(e)       Not applicable.
Item 6.

Item 6 as previously filed is amended in its entirety with the following paragraph:
 
Except for the joint filing agreement attached as Exhibit A, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships among the Reporting Persons, or between the Reporting Persons and any other person, with respect to the securities of the Issuer.
