ITEM 4.
PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION
The Securities have been acquired for the purpose of making an investment in the Issuer and not with the present intention of acquiring control of the Issuers business. Michael Callaghan participates directly and certain other Reporting Persons may be deemed to participate indirectly in the management of the Issuer through representation on the Issuers Board of Directors (the Board) by virtue of Mr. Callaghans appointment to fill a vacancy on the Board effective as of April 22, 2003. For further information, see Items 2 and 6 hereof.
The Reporting Persons intend to review the investment in the Issuer on the basis of various factors, including the Issuers business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for the Issuers Securities in particular, as well as other developments and other investment opportunities. Based upon such review, the Reporting Persons will take such actions in the future as they may deem appropriate in light of the circumstances existing from time to time. If the Reporting Persons believe that further investment in the Issuer is attractive, whether because of the market price of the Issuers Securities or otherwise, they may acquire shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Similarly, depending on market conditions and other factors, the Reporting Persons may determine to dispose of some or all of the Securities currently owned by the Reporting Persons or otherwise acquired by the Reporting Persons either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.
Except as set forth above, the Reporting Persons have not formulated any plans or proposals, which 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 or any of its subsidiaries;
(c) A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
(d) Any change in the present Board of Directors of management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number of 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 Issuers business or corporate structure;
(g) Changes in the Issuers charter, by-laws, 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 the securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or cease to be authorized to be traded in an inter-dealer 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 Act of 1933, as amended; or
(j) Any action similar to any of those listed above.
ITEM 5.
INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
(a) and (b) As a result of certain relationships, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to directly and/or indirectly beneficially own up to 2,314,812 shares of Common Stock and 810,186 shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants exercisable on July 21, 2003, representing in the aggregate approximately 11.8% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, based on the number of shares of Common Stock reported to be outstanding as of March 14, 2003, in the Issuers Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on March 31, 2003, together with the number of Securities purchased (including the shares underlying the Purchasers Warrants exercisable on July 21, 2003) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of any Securities beneficially owned by any other Reporting Person.
Due to their relationship with one another and the voting covenant contained in the Purchase Agreement and certain other nominee voting commitments entered into by certain other shareholders identified in Item 6 below which were entered into as a condition to closing the purchase of Securities by the Purchasers described below in Item 6, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a group under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Act), with respect to their beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock and Warrants. The Reporting Persons, however, expressly disclaim such status and declare that the filing of this Schedule 13D is not and should not be deemed an admission that any Reporting Person, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act or otherwise, is the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock or Warrants held by any other Reporting Person.

ITEM 6.
CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
Purchase Agreement
The Purchase Agreement provides that the Issuers agreement with each of the several purchasers thereunder, is a separate agreement and the sale of Securities to each of the individual purchasers is a separate sale. Capitalized terms used in this Item 6 and not otherwise defined herein have the respective meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement, filed as Exhibit 1.
So long as the MDS Parties (defined below) are the beneficial owners of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to at least 25% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock purchased by the MDS Parties on the Closing Date, the MDS Parties then holding the Securities shall have the right pursuant to the Purchase Agreement to nominate one director (MDS Nominee) for election to the Issuers Board of Directors. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer agreed to use its best efforts to cause such election to be effective one day after the Closing Date. The Issuer agreed to cause the MDS Nominee to continue as a member of the Issuers Board of Directors for so long as the MDS Parties, together with their affiliates

|
and subsidiaries, are the beneficial owners of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to at least 25% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock purchased by the MDS Parties at the Closing Date. The term MDS Parties means collectively, (i) MDS Capital, (ii) any Affiliate of MDS Capital or any other MDS Party, and (iii) any Person which is an investment fund to which MDS Capital or any of its Affiliates provides investment management and/or advisory services, which currently includes the Purchasers.
The Purchase Agreement also provides that so long as the Purchasers, as defined in the Purchase Agreement, and the MDS Parties are the beneficial owners of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to at least 25% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock purchased at the Closing Date, the Issuer and MDS Parties then holding the Securities shall jointly nominate for election to the Issuers Board of Directors an individual (the Issuer Nominee) who is an independent director (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) with extensive experience in pharmaceutical development.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer has agreed at its expense to prepare and file a Registration Statement with the SEC to register the resale of the Securities by the Purchasers and each other purchaser of the Securities. If the Registration Statement is not effective within a specified period of time after the Closing Date, the Purchasers (and each other purchaser of Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement) are entitled to receive additional warrants to purchase 5% of the number of shares of Common Stock each Purchaser purchased pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (each, an Additional Warrant). To the extent that the Registration Statement is not declared effective at the end of each 30-day period following the date the first Additional Warrant is issued (subject to tolling and extension in certain circumstances described in the Purchase Agreement), each Purchaser is entitled to receive an Additional Warrant on that date. If the Registration Statement becomes effective in the middle of any of the 30-day periods, Additional Warrants will be issued for the portion of that 30 days which has elapsed.
The Issuer also has agreed to indemnify the Purchasers (i) for any losses suffered from any material misstatements or omissions or breaches of representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in the Purchase Agreement and (ii) upon the resale of the Securities for any losses suffered or incurred based upon (A) any Untrue Statement on or after the effective date of the Registration Statement, or on or after the effective date of any prospectus or prospectus supplement or the date of any sale by the Purchaser thereunder, with certain limitations; or (B) any failure by the Issuer to comply with any undertaking in the Registration Statement or under federal or state securities law.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and as a condition to closing the purchase of Securities by the Purchasers, certain existing shareholders of the Issuer executed and delivered nominee voting commitments whereby the shareholders listed below agreed to vote their Common Stock, and any other securities with voting rights, to elect to the Issuers Board of Directors those individuals designated as the MDS Nominee and the Issuer Nominee. In addition, the Purchase Agreement itself contained a covenant among the purchasers thereunder (including the Purchasers) to vote their shares in the same manner. As a result, the Reporting
