As described in this Amendment, some of the Common Stock that is beneficially owned by Mr. Kirk is directly beneficially owned by one of the following entities, each of which is controlled by Mr. Kirk: Radford Investments Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (“Radford”), Randal J. Kirk (2000) Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (“2000LP”), RJK, L.L.C., a Virginia limited liability company (“RJK”), Third Security Staff 2001 LLC, a Virginia limited liability company (“Staff 2001”), New River Management IV, LP, a Virginia limited partnership (“NRM IV”) and NRM V.
 
Except as set forth below, there are no changes to the information set forth in the Original Schedule 13D.
 
Item 2. Identity and Background.
 
Item 2 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:
 
“This Statement is being filed on behalf of Mr. Kirk, Radford, 2000LP, RJK, Staff 2001, NRM IV and NRM V (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”).
 
(a)-(c) The address of the principal business office of each of the Reporting Persons is The Governor Tyler, 1881 Grove Avenue, Radford, Virginia 24141. The present principal occupation/employment of Mr. Kirk is Senior Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Third Security, LLC, an investment management firm founded by Mr. Kirk. The principal business of each of Radford, 2000LP, RJK, Staff 2001, NRM IV and NRM V is investment.
 
(d)-(e) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons or, to the best of the Reporting Persons' knowledge, any of the managers or joint holders of the Reporting Persons, has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding is or was subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
(f) Mr. Kirk is a citizen of the United States. Radford, 2000LP and NRM V are entities organized under the laws of Delaware. NRM IV, RJK and Staff 2001 are entities organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.”
 


Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
 
Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
 
“NRM V acquired 3,500,000 shares of Common Stock reported herein through a private placement under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for a purchase price of $9.17 per share, or $32.1 million in the aggregate, using NRM V’s working capital.”
 
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
 
Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:
 
The Reporting Persons' purpose in purchasing the Common Stock reported in Item 5(a) hereof is for investment purposes and as described in the following paragraphs. The Reporting Persons, or any of them, may purchase additional shares of Common Stock from time to time, either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Any decision of the Reporting Persons to increase their holdings in Common Stock will depend, however, on numerous factors, including, without limitation, the price of shares of Common Stock, the terms and conditions related to their purchase and sale, the prospects and profitability of the Issuer, other business and investment alternatives of the Reporting Persons and general economic and market conditions. At any time, the Reporting Persons, or any of them, may determine to dispose of some or all of their holdings of Common Stock depending on those and other considerations.
 
On April 23, 2007, the Company and NRM V entered into the Purchase Agreement for a $32.1 million private placement of newly issued shares of Common Stock. On May 30, 2007, the parties closed this transaction, at which time the Company issued 3,500,000 shares of Common Stock to NRM V at a price of $9.17 per share. This sales price represents a $0.22 per share premium to the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date that the parties executed the Purchase Agreement.
 
On May 15, 2007, Mr. Kirk was elected by the Board if Directors of the Company to fill a newly created vacancy on the Board of Directors. Pursuant to the Company's outside director compensation policy, upon Mr. Kirk's election to the Company's Board of Directors, Mr. Kirk was granted 15,000 restricted shares of Common Stock and immediately exercisable options to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock.
 
Except as set forth above, none of the Reporting Persons has any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer; (d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an interdealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above. The Reporting Persons may formulate plans or proposals with respect to one or more of the foregoing in the future.”
