EXPLANATORY NOTE—DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-3 Registration Statement (File no. 333-63642), originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 22, 2001 and subsequently declared effective (the “Registration Statement”), is being filed to deregister shares of common stock that were previously registered pursuant to the Registration Statement.
The Registration Statement was filed to register the resale of (a) 9,003,216 shares of the Registrant’s common stock that might have been issued upon conversion of the Registrant’s initial 4,200 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock; (b) 1,312,500 shares of the Registrant’s common stock that might have been issued upon exercise of three-year common stock purchase warrants (the “B Warrants”); and (c) 555,161 shares of the Registrant’s common stock issuable upon exercise of five-year common stock purchase warrants that were originally issued to the placement agent of the Series B preferred stock and B Warrants (the “Agent’s Warrants”).
All of the 4,200 shares of Series B preferred stock were converted into 4,501,608 shares of common stock, and the shares of common stock were subsequently sold by the selling stockholders. Therefore, of the 9,003,216 shares included in the Registration Statement in respect of the Series B preferred stock, 4,501,608 shares were never issued and will not be issued or sold. In addition, the B Warrants have expired without having been exercised. Therefore, the 1,312,500 shares included in the Registration Statement in respect of the B Warrants will not be issued or sold.
The Agent’s Warrants remain outstanding and the 555,161 shares of the Registrant’s common stock issuable upon exercise of these warrants continue to be registered for resale under the registration statement.
Therefore, pursuant to the Registrant’s undertaking under Item 512(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, the Registrant hereby deregisters 5,814,108 shares of its common stock that were registered in respect of the Series B preferred stock and the B Warrants.
