DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

The Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-162794) (the “Registration Statement”) of the Registrant, pertaining to the registration of up to $250,000,000 in aggregate offering price of the common stock, preferred stock, warrants and debt securities of the Registrant (collectively, the “Registrant Securities”), to which this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates, was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 2, 2009.

Oracle Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Oracle”), Amsterdam Acquisition Sub Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Oracle (“Merger Sub”), and the Registrant entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 2, 2010 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub would be merged with and into the Registrant, the Registrant would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oracle, and all outstanding shares of the Registrant’s common stock would be converted into the right to receive $6.00 in cash (these actions are collectively referred to as the “Merger”).

On January 4, 2011, the Registrant held a special meeting of stockholders at which the Registrant’s stockholders adopted the Merger Agreement. The Merger became effective following the filing of Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on January 5, 2011(the “Effective Time”).

As a result of the Merger, the Registrant has terminated all offerings of Registrant Securities pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any Registrant Securities which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes from registration all Registrant Securities registered under the Registration Statement which remain unsold as of the Effective Time.
