Item 4.   Ownership
 
           
    See rows 5 through 11 of the cover pages for the Reporting Persons. On January 1, 2006, CLS disposed of all of the shares of Common Stock of the issuer CLS held of record. Such shares were distributed pursuant to a Dissolution Agreement between CLS and the Members and Managers of CLS, dated January 1, 2006. This Amendment to Schedule 13G is being filed to report the fact that CLS is no longer the record holder of five percent or more of the Common Stock of the Issuer.

By virtue of their relationships as managers of CLS, each of Messrs. Dolan and Schwarzer and Drs. Harrison and Teng (collectively the “Managers”) were identified as an entity or person, as applicable, who may have been deemed to be the beneficial owner of shares held of record by CLS in the original Schedule 13G filed to report the shares held of record by the Reporting Persons as of August 31, 2003. Following the disposition of the shares of Common Stock held of record by CLS, none of the Managers may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of five percent or more of the Common Stock of the Issuer by virtue of such Reporting Person’s relationship with CLS.

The shares of Common Stock distributed by CLS pursuant to the Dissolution Agreement referenced above were transferred to Charter Ventures L.P. (“CV I”) and Charter Ventures II, L.P. (“CV II”). Mr. Dolan is a general partner of CV I and CV II and by virtue of this relationship, may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the shares beneficially owned by CV I and CV II, which are reported on the cover page for Mr. Dolan. The number of shares of Common Stock and options to purchase Common Stock held of record by CV I and CV II consist of (i) 986,510 shares held by CV I, (ii) 5,026,207 shares held by CV II, (iii) options to purchase 1,000 shares held by CV I and (iv) options to purchase 1,000 shares held by CV II. Mr. Dolan disclaims beneficial ownership with respect to the shares beneficially owned by CV I and CV II, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. Mr. Dolan is also a director of the issuer and holds options to purchase 278,809 shares of Common Stock of the issuer. Mr. Schwarzer is the record holder of 84,249 shares of Common Stock of the issuer. The percent of class reported on Row 11 of the cover page for each of Mr. Dolan and Mr. Schwarzer are based on an aggregate of 50,252,928 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding on May 12, 2006 pursuant to the Form 10-Q of the issuer filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2006.

Mr. Dolan will continue to report his beneficial ownership interests as required pursuant to his relationship with CV I and CV II and his relationship as a director of the issuer, as required, however, as a result of the distribution of the shares of the issuer held by CLS, Mr. Dolan and Mr. Schwarzer will no longer be deemed to be the beneficial owners of five percent or more of the Common Stock of the Issuer by virtue of Mr. Dolan’s and Mr. Schwarzer’s relationship with CLS.
 
           
Item 5.   Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class:
 
           
    If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of securities, check the following þ.
 
           
Item 6.   Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person:
 
           
    Not Applicable.

    Not Applicable.
