Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

     In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer and certain stockholders of the Issuer, including the Funds (each an “Investor” and collectively the “Investors”) entered into Amended and Restated Company Support Agreements (the “Support Agreements”), dated as of April 21, 2005, pursuant to which each Investor agreed to vote their shares of Common Stock in favor of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement until the expiration of the Support Agreements on August 31, 2005. Each Investor retains voting power with regard to all other matters. Accordingly, the Investors, as parties to the Support Agreements, may be deemed to be a group, and in accordance with Rule 13d-5, each Investor may be deemed to beneficially own the Common Stock held by the Investors. All of the Common Stock held by the Investors represent approximately 62.3% of the outstanding Common Stock, as adjusted pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1) promulgated under the Securities Act. This includes 4,259,496 shares of Common Stock owned of record by the Funds, as well as the Common Stock owned of record by the other parties to the Support Agreements.

     This percentage is calculated based upon 26,092,488 shares of Common Stock outstanding, as adjusted pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1) promulgated under the Securities Act.

     Under SEC rules, and by virtue of their relationship as affiliated limited partnerships which share a sole manager (Amadeus Capital), the Funds may be deemed to own beneficially the shares held of record by each Reporting Person and accordingly may be deemed to own beneficially the shares held of record by the Investors. Amadeus Capital, as the manager of the Funds, may also be deemed to own beneficially the shares of the Funds, and accordingly may be deemed to own beneficially the shares held of record by the Investors. Each of the Reporting Persons expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by the other Reporting Persons, except to the extent of their respective pecuniary interest therein. Each of the Reporting Persons expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares held by the other parties to the Support Agreements, except as described herein for the limited purpose of the Support Agreements.

     References to and descriptions of the Support Agreements as set forth in this Item 6 are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Form of Amended and Restated Company Support Agreement filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 26, 2005 and is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.

     The information provided or incorporated by reference in Item 3 and Item 4 is hereby incorporated by reference.

     To the best of the knowledge of Amadeus Capital and the Funds, there are no other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 and between such persons and any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer.

Item 7. Material to be filed as Exhibits.
