ITEM 3.01.		NOTICE OF DELISTING OR FAILURE TO SATISFY A CONTINUED LISTING RULE OR STANDARD; TRANSFER OF LISTING.

On August 6, 2008, the Company notified NASDAQ that each outstanding share of Common Stock was converted in the Merger into the right to receive the Merger Consideration and that, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eiger, the Company no longer met the listing requirements for inclusion in the NASDAQ Global Market set forth in Rule 4426(b) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. Accordingly, the Company requested that NASDAQ file a notification of removal from listing on Form 25 with the SEC with respect to the Common Stock. In addition, the Company will file with the SEC a certification and notice of termination of registration on Form 15, requesting that the Common Stock be deregistered under Section 12(b) and 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and that the reporting obligations of the Company under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act be suspended.


ITEM 3.03		MATERIAL MODIFICATIONS TO RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

On August 6, 2008, pursuant to the Merger Agreement and in connection with the completion of the Merger, each share of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger was converted into the right to receive $12.10 in cash, without interest and net of any taxes required to be withheld. Upon the effective time of the Merger, the Company’s stockholders immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger ceased to have any rights as stockholders in the Company (other than their right to receive the Merger Consideration) and accordingly no longer have any interest in the Company’s future earnings or growth.


ITEM 5.01.		CHANGES OF CONTROL OF REGISTRANT.

On August 6, 2008, pursuant to the Merger, control of the Company was acquired by Eiger, which now owns 100% of the Company’s capital stock. Eiger financed the payment of the Merger Consideration through a combination of issuance of its equity and by entry into an asset-based senior secured credit facility with Comerica Bank. The discussion under Item 2.01 of this Current Report is incorporated by reference in this Item 5.01.


ITEM 5.02.		DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.

In accordance with previously negotiated terms of the Merger Agreement, upon the effectiveness of the Merger on August 6, 2008, Mssrs. Charles A. Lingenfelter, David K. Barth, William R. Fenoglio, William T. Parr, George L. Sachs, Jr., Ajita G. Rajendra and Richard M. Seigel voluntarily resigned from the board of directors of the Company. The newly appointed board of directors of the Company is comprised of J. Bryan King.


ITEM 5.03.		AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS; CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR.

In connection with the Merger and pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation of Merger Co and the bylaws of Merger Co, each as in effect immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, are now the Certificate of Incorporation and the bylaws of the Company (except with respect to the name of the Company).


ITEM 8.01.		OTHER EVENTS.

After the close of business on August 6, 2008, the Company issued a press release announcing the consummation of the Merger. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
