Items 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
     From July 19, 2006 through July 21, 2006, we issued 1,103,830 shares of common stock to 24 of our warrant holders in connection with their exercise of outstanding warrants. We received gross proceeds of $2,594,596.25 upon exercise of these warrants.
     Pursuant to the terms of an agreement we entered into with Burnham Hill Partners, a division of Pali Capital, Inc., in March 2004, we are obligated to pay a 4% cash commission on each cash exercise of warrants issued in a financing that we consummated in April 2004. In accordance with this obligation, we owe Burnham Hill Partners approximately $103,783.85 in connection with the exercises of warrants from July 19, 2006 through July 21, 2006. No other commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly in connection with these warrant exercises. The issuances of shares of common stock upon exercise of these warrants were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance upon Section 4(2) of such Act.
