Corporate Update - To further reduce the rate at which we use our cash during our strategic review process, the employment of Graham Neil, our Vice- President, Finance, and CFO, was terminated effective July 14, 2009. Mr. Neil has agreed to fulfill the role of CFO, in a consulting capacity at substantially reduced compensation, to assist the Board in bringing closure to the ongoing strategic review process. As a result of this termination the number of full-time employees has been reduced to one. - On April 24, 2009, we announced that Dr. Eldon R. Smith would succeed Terrance H. Gregg as Chairman of our Board of Directors due to the retirement of Mr. Gregg. Mr. Gregg's resignation from our Board is due to the requirements of his role as President and CEO of DexCom, Inc. In connection with his appointment, Dr. Smith's position as our Senior Vice President, Scientific Affairs and Chief Medical Officer was terminated. - Pursuant to our restructuring plan, our Board of Directors and Management had been actively involved in a process of screening, reviewing, and short-listing potential opportunities, including the sale of the Company or a merger or acquisition, and exploring the monetization of certain tangible and intangible assets. The process has also included a review of the potential out-licensing of assets, lapsing of patents and patent applications, asset divestiture, or liquidation of the Company. The process involved narrowing down the number of third-party proposals. At this time, we are in the process of negotiating agreements that may result in one or more transactions with regard to the foregoing. There can be no assurances that we will be able to finalize any such agreements. The Board will also consider alternatives to these that it has also been evaluating. The Board will continue to assess the merits of these options relative to liquidating the Company and distributing the remaining cash to the shareholders.
