Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously disclosed, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, DNA Computing Solutions, Inc. (collectively the "Debtors") filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") on August 3, 2005 in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas Dallas Division (the "Bankruptcy Court"). The cases are now being jointly administered under case number 05-38756-BJH-11.

The Debtors have entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with GE Fanuc Embedded Systems, Inc. ("GEF") for the sale of substantially all of the assets of DNA Computing Solutions, Inc. pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (the "APA").

The Debtors have filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting the entry of an order (a) authorizing and scheduling an auction, (b) authorizing and approving (i) bidding procedures, (ii) break-up fee and expense reimbursement, (iii) notice of the auction, and (iv) the form and manner of sale notice and (c) scheduling a sale hearing (the "Bid Procedures Motion"). A hearing on the Bid Procedures Motion has been scheduled by the Bankruptcy Court for 9:00 a.m. CDT, Thursday, August 11, 2005.

The Debtors have requested, subject to Bankruptcy Court approval, that (i) potential bidders be required to submit bids no later than August 24, 2005, (ii) an auction be scheduled for August 26, 2005, and (iii) a hearing on the Sale Motion (as defined below) be scheduled for August 29, 2005.

The Debtors have also filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting the entry of an order authorizing, pursuant to sections 105(A), 363 and 1146(C) of the Bankruptcy Code, the sale to GEF of substantially all of the assets of DNA Computing Solutions, Inc. and approving the APA (the "Sale Motion"). Pursuant to the Sale Motion, the Debtors are requesting authority to sell the assets to the highest and best bid received from Qualified Bidders (as defined in the Bid Procedures Motion) at the auction.

If there are no Qualified Bidders, the auction will be cancelled and substantially all of the assets of DNA Computing Solutions, Inc. will be sold to GEF pursuant to the APA, subject to Bankruptcy Court approval. The Sale Motion contemplates that the sale will be effectuated at the end of August, 2005 or the beginning of September, 2005. The Bankruptcy Court has not yet scheduled a hearing on the Sale Motion.

The Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 1, 2005 and disclosing information pursuant to Items 1.01, 1.03, 2.03 and 2.04 is incorporated herein by reference.
