(b) On May 30, 2008, during a regularly-scheduled meeting of our board of directors, our current director Donagh McCarthy notified us that he will decline to stand for re-election to the board of directors at our 2008 Annual Shareholder Meeting. Thereafter, the board unanimously agreed that, effective as of the 2008 Annual Shareholder Meeting, the number of directors on our board will be reduced to eight.

Also during our regularly-scheduled board meeting on May 30, 2008, our board unanimously decided that our current Executive Chairman of the Board, Peter C. Farrell, Ph. D, will continue to hold the office of Executive Chairman of the Board after June 30, 2008. Accordingly, Dr. Farrell will not become non-executive chairman of the Board on June 30, 2008, as discussed in the 8-K we filed on August 31, 2007.
