This Amendment No. 8 supplements and amends Items 4 and 5 of the statement on Schedule 13D filed on November 5, 2007 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on December 23, 2008, Amendment No. 2 filed on January 12, 2009, Amendment No. 3 filed on March 10, 2009, Amendment No. 4 filed on March 17, 2009, Amendment No. 5 filed on September 17, 2009, Amendment No. 6 filed on September 22, 2009 and Amendment No. 7 filed on April 29, 2010. Each Item below amends and supplements the information disclosed under the corresponding Item of the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by inserting the following paragraph immediately prior to the last two paragraphs of Item 4:

At 12:01a.m. on July 1, 2010 the Merger was consummated and became effective pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and Issuer became a wholly-owned subsidiary of HP. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of Issuer Capital Stock that was beneficially owned by any of the Reporting Persons was converted into the right to receive an amount in cash as determined in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, without interest, equal to (i) the Common Merger Consideration in the case of the Common Stock, (ii) $1,010.00 in the case of the Series B Preferred Stock, and (iii) $1,753.85 in the case of the Series C Preferred Stock. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of Common Stock subject to a Warrant beneficially owned by any of the Reporting Persons was converted into the right to receive $2.45. As a result, after the effective time of the Merger, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially owned any shares of Issuer Capital Stock.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to read in its entirety as follows:

(a) As a result of the Merger, none of the Reporting Persons beneficially own any shares of Common Stock.

(b) As a result of the Merger, none of the Reporting Persons has shared or sole voting or dispositive power over any shares of Common Stock.

(c) Except as set forth in Item 4 and this Item 5, to the best knowledge of each of the Reporting Persons, none of the Reporting Persons has engaged in any transaction during the past 60 days in any shares of Common Stock.

(d) No one other than the Reporting Persons has the right to receive dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any of the securities of the Issuer reported on this Schedule 13D.

(e) As a result of the Merger, each of the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owner of any shares of Common Stock.

Signatures

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of its knowledge and belief, each of the undersigned certifies that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
