~~Item 8~~Pursuant to the Court’s order, on June 12, 2010, the Board of Directors appointed Ralph N.01 ~~Other~~Dechiaro ~~Events~~to serve as interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Dechiaro, age 61, had served as the Company's Vice President of Business Development from 2002 to 2007, and thereafter as its Vice President of Business Operations.

As disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 24, 2009, the Company is continuing to work toward completing its potential new financing. However, the Company was unable to obtain financing by the end of 2009 and cannot provide any assurance that it will be able to complete any potential financing in the near future on terms that are favorable to the Company, if at all. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities or any securities convertible into equity, the Company expects that its shareholders will experience dilution of their shareholdings. If the Company is unable to obtain financing in the near future, the Company will have to cease operations.
