Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-149250), pertaining to the registration of 1,037,580 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), all of which are issuable upon the exercise of warrants, which was originally filed with the Commission on February 14, 2008 and amended on May 8, 2008.

 

   

Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-156958), pertaining to the registration of $70,000,000 of senior debt securities, Common Stock, preferred stock, warrants, units, contracts to purchase shares of common stock and/or stock purchase units of the Company, which was filed with the Commission on January 27, 2009.

 

   

Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-159949), pertaining to the registration of 10,158,996 shares of the Common Stock, including 2,116,662 shares issuable upon conversion of the Company’s 12.5% March Cash Secured Convertible Notes, which was filed with the Commission on June 12, 2009.
