Other Events Effective as of May 3, 2001, we effected modifications to our Series A Warrant dated November 17, 2000 to purchase 666,667 shares of our common stock (the "Series A Warrant") and our Series B Warrant dated November 17, 2000 to purchase 333,333 shares of our common stock (the "Series B Warrant"). The Series A Warrant and the Series B Warrant were originally issued by us to an institutional investor pursuant to a securities purchase agreement dated as of November 17, 2000 by and between us and that institutional investor. Pursuant to the securities purchase agreement, the institutional investor has consented to, and waived certain provisions in the securities purchase agreement related to, our sale of certain of our securities in accordance with the terms set forth in our prospectus supplement dated May 3, 2001. In consideration for the institutional investor's waiver and consent we have (i) amended the exercise price applicable to the Series A Warrant held by the institutional investor from $12.56 per share to $3.50 per share and (ii) amended the exercise price applicable to the Series B Warrant held by the institutional investor from $11.31 per share to $2.52 per share. The institutional investor has agreed to immediately exercise the modified Series B Warrant after the filing of this Form 8-K, and we will issue to the institutional investor a modified Series A Warrant to reflect the change in the exercise price in exchange for the institutional investor's surrender of its existing Warrant Certificate. As additional consideration for the institutional investor's waiver and consent, we have issued to the institutional investor a warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of our common stock at a per share price of $3.08 (the "Series C Warrant"). The Series A Warrant and the Series B Warrant and the shares of our common stock underlying the warrants were registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission in a registration statement on Form S-3, SEC File No. 333- 49628, filed on November 9, 2000, as supplemented by a Supplement to Registration Statement No. 333-49628, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 17, 2000.
