Gives
effect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of
all
options exercisable within 60 days of April 23, 2007 and other rights
beneficially owned by the indicated stockholders on that date. Beneficial
ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities
and
Exchange Commission and includes voting and investment power with
respect
to shares. Unless otherwise indicated, the persons named in the table
have
sole voting and sole investment control with respect to all shares
beneficially owned. Percentage ownership is calculated based on 24,485,696
shares of Common Stock outstanding as of April 23, 2007.

Based
on information reflected in a Schedule 13G filed by Ms. Chassman
with the
SEC on November 20, 2006, and includes 630,000 shares of Common Stock
ultimately issuable upon exercise and conversion of the Series A
Preferred
Stock and warrants underlying the warrant we issued Ms. Chassman
upon the
closing of our Series A Preferred Stock private placement, 800,000
shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock
and
400,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants.
Ms.
Chassman has waived her registration rights with respect to the Series
A
Preferred Stock and warrants. Margie Chassman is married to David
Blech.
Mr. Blech disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares. Since 1980
Mr.
Blech has been a founder of companies and venture capital investor
in the
biotechnology sector. His initial venture investment, Genetic Systems
Corporation, which he helped found and served as treasurer and a
member of
the board of directors, was sold to Bristol Myers in 1986 for $294
million
of Bristol Myers stock. Other companies he helped found include DNA
Plant
Technology, Celgene Corporation, Neurogen Corporation, Icos Corporation,
Incyte Pharmaceuticals, Alexion Pharmaceuticals and Neurocrine
Biosciences. He was also instrumental in the turnaround of Liposome
Technology, Inc. and Biotech General Corporation. In 1990 Mr. Blech
founded D. Blech & Company, which, until it ceased doing business in
September 1994, was a registered broker-dealer involved in underwriting
biotechnology issues. In May 1998, David Blech pled guilty to two
counts
of criminal securities fraud, and, in September 1999, he was sentenced
by
the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York to
five
years’ probation, which was completed in September 2004. Mr. Blech also
settled administrative charges by the Commission in December 2000
arising
out of the collapse in 1994 of D. Blech & Co., of which Mr. Blech was
President and sole stockholder. The settlement prohibits Mr. Blech
from
engaging in future violations of the federal securities laws and
from
association with any broker-dealer. In addition, the District Business
Conduct Committee for District No.10 of NASD Regulation, Inc. reached
a
decision, dated December 3, 1996, in a matter styled District Business
Conduct Committee for District No. 10 v. David Blech, regarding the
alleged failure of Mr. Blech to respond to requests by the staff
of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (“NASD”) for documents
and information in connection with seven customer complaints against
various registered representatives of D. Blech & Co. The decision
found that Mr. Blech failed to respond to such requests in violation
of
NASD rules and that Mr. Blech should, therefore, be censured, fined
$20,000 and barred from associating with any member firm in any capacity.
Furthermore, Mr. Blech was discharged in bankruptcy in the United
States
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York in March 2000.
