Item 5.02.    Departure of Principal Officer


Effective as of November 1, 2005, Michael Tempesta’s employment as part-time President of the Company terminated.  It was originally anticipated that Mr. Tempesta would become the full-time President of the Company following the initial three month period of his employment.  However, the Company and Mr. Tempesta were unable to reach a mutually satisfactory agreement concerning Mr. Tempesta’s continued employment with the Company.  Accordingly, the Company and Mr. Tempesta mutually agreed that his employment with the Company should terminate.


Mr. Tempesta’s primary focus was on product research and development.  In an effort to conserve capital, after consultation with members of the Company’s Scientific Advisory Board, the Company decided not to replace Mr. Tempesta at this time, but instead to utilize its existing resources.  Thomas Ingolia, Phd and Steven Rittmanic, both consultants to the Company and members of its Scientific Advisory Board, have been actively involved with Mr. Tempesta in product research and development.  Messrs. Ingolia and Rittmanic will advise the Company, on a consulting basis, regarding the oversight of product research and development.
