Item 5. Other Events

On December 17, 2001, we redeemed all of our outstanding 4% Series A and Series B convertible subordinated notes due December 2002 (collectively, the "Notes"). The Notes had an outstanding principal amount of $7,500,000. In consideration for the redemption of the Notes we paid a total of $4,500,000 cash, issued 1,000,000 shares of our common stock, and reduced the exercise price of the Series A and Series B Warrants held by the former Note holders to $0.898. In connection with the transaction we also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement requiring us to register the 1,000,000 shares of common stock for resale by the former Note holders. In the event that such registration statement is not declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by February 15, 2002, the former Note holders may require us to redeem all or a portion of the 1,000,000 shares at a price equal to the higher of $0.898 or the price of our common stock on the date of the requested redemption.

A copy of the Redemption and Exchange Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the form of Warrant Amendment and the press release issued by us announcing the completion of this transaction are attached as exhibits hereto and are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
