DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
On August 24, 2001, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-68304) (the “Registration Statement”), to register the resale of up to 2,399,946 shares of our common stock by certain selling securityholders named in the Registration Statement and in a prospectus supplement dated March 19, 2002. These shares of common stock were issued by us in a private transaction in connection with our acquisition of American Osteomedix Corporation. The Registration Statement was subsequently declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Our contractual obligation to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has expired, and consequently, in accordance with the undertaking contained in the Registration Statement pursuant to Item 512(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement deregisters all of the shares of our common stock registered pursuant to the Registration Statement remaining unsold as of the effective date hereof.
