Item 8.01. Other Events.

On November 22, 2005, the Company’s previously announced one-new-share-for 40-old shares reverse split of its outstanding common stock became effective. Based on the 479,619,301 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the reverse split, the Company had 11,990,483 shares of its common stock outstanding after the effectiveness of the reverse split.

On November 22, 2005, the Company closed its previously announced rights offering (the “Rights Offering”), which was conducted pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (file no. 333-126979), and all amendments thereto, including the prospectus which is a part thereof dated October 21, 2005 (collectively, the “Registration Statement”). In the Rights Offering, the Company was selling shares of its authorized but unissued post-reverse split common stock to its stockholders of record on October 19, 2005 for a subscription price of $4.80 per share. In the Rights Offering, the Company received and accepted the following subscriptions:

	1.		cash subscriptions to purchase 5,491,190 post-reverse split shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate cash purchase price of $26,357,712; and
	2.		a subscription from LJH Ltd. (“LJH”), an entity controlled by Lacy Harber, the Company’s principal stockholder, to purchase 3,959,837 post-reverse split shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $19,007,218 using the proceeds of a loan due from the Company to LJH.

At the closing of the Rights Offering, the Company issued an aggregate of 9,451,027 shares of its post reverse split common stock. After completion of the Rights Offering, the Company has 21,441,510 shares outstanding, and Mr. Harber owns 42.5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Prior to the closing of the Rights Offering, the Company filed an amendment to its certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware. In that amendment, the Company effected the following changes to its Certificate of Incorporation, all of which were previously approved by the holders of more than a majority of the Company’s outstanding shares at a meeting held on October 7, 2005:

	•		an amendment declassifying the Company’s Board of Directors so that all of the Company’s directors are elected annually;
	•		an amendment reducing the Company’s authorized shares of common stock from 500 million shares to 100 million shares; and

• an amendment effecting the one-new-share-for-40-old-shares reverse split of the Company’s outstanding common stock, with the Company’s authorized shares remaining at 100 million shares.

The form of the Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as filed with the Delaware Secretary of State, is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

On November 22, 2005, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the Rights Offering. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference.

Subsequent to the closing of the Rights Offering, the Company intends to file a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement relating to the future resale of the 3,959,837 shares sold to Mr. Harber and the 2,233,442 shares sold to Owl Creek Asset Management LP in the Rights Offering.

The following table sets forth (1) the Company’s actual capitalization as of September 30, 2005, (2) the Company’s pro forma capitalization as of September 30, 2005 as if on that date the August 2005 tender offer, which closed on October 12, 2005, had been completed, and (3) the Company’s pro forma capitalization as of September 30, 2005 as if on that date (x) the August 2005 tender offer had been completed as set forth in (2) above, (y) the LJH Note had been used to purchase shares in the Rights Offering, and (z) the Company had completed the cash portion of the Rights Offering as described above.
