Item 4.

Ownership.

(a)

Amount beneficially owned:

QVT Fund LP (the “Fund”), beneficially owns 128,755 shares of Common Stock. The Fund also owns (a) shares of the Issuer’s Series A Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”), which are convertible into 1,158,799 shares of Common Stock, (b) Series A Warrants, which entitle the Fund to purchase 772,532 shares of Common Stock, (c) Series B Warrants, which entitle the Fund to purchase 772,532 shares of Common Stock, and (d) Series J Warrants, which entitle the Fund to purchase 1,287,554 shares of Common Stock (the Series A, B and J Warrants are referred to collectively as the “Warrants”). The Preferred Stock and the Warrants contain an issuance limitation prohibiting the holder of such Preferred Stock and Warrants from converting the Preferred Stock or exercising the Warrants to the extent that such conversion or exercise would result in beneficial ownership by such holder of more than 9.9% of the Common Stock then issued and outstanding.

QVT Financial LP (“QVT Financial”) is the investment manager for the Fund, which, due to the issuance limitation described above, beneficially owns 2,389,584 shares of Common Stock, consisting of the 128,755 shares of Common Stock and 2,260,829 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants. Accordingly, taking into account the issuance limitation, QVT Financial may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of an aggregate amount of 2,389,584 shares of Common Stock, consisting of the shares owned by the Fund and the shares underlying the Preferred Stock and Warrants owned by the Fund.

The aggregate number of shares of which the Fund and QVT Financial would be deemed to be the beneficial owner if the Fund fully converted all of the Preferred Stock and exercised all of the Warrants is 4,120,172. Due to the issuance limitation, the Preferred Stock and Warrants held by the Fund are currently exercisable for 2,260,829 shares of Common Stock, and the number of shares of Common Stock of which QVT Financial may currently be deemed to be the beneficial owner is 2,389,584. The remaining shares of Common Stock underlying the Preferred Stock and the Warrants may not be issued unless the Fund provides notice to the Issuer 61 days prior to conversion of the Preferred Stock or the exercise of the Warrants that this limitation will not apply.

QVT Financial GP LLC, as General Partner of QVT Financial, may be deemed to beneficially own the same number of shares of Common Stock reported by QVT Financial. QVT Associates GP LLC, as General Partner of the Fund, may be deemed to beneficially own the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock owned by the Fund.

Each of QVT Financial and QVT Financial GP LLC disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock owned by the Fund. QVT Associates GP LLC disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares of Common Stock owned by the Fund, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein.

The percentage disclosed in Item 11 of the Cover Pages for each reporting person is calculated based upon the sum of (i) 21,876,390 shares of Common Stock outstanding, which is the total number of shares issued and outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants held by such reporting person.
