"I would hardly consider the current offering as a "toxic convertible" as that implies a
discounted convert."

From the S-3:

<<The Series D Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at the option of the holder beginning March 17, 1999, subject to acceleration in certain events, at a conversion price equal to 80% of the trailing five-day average closing bid price of the common stock on the conversion date. The conversion price is subject to a minimum conversion price equal to the trailing 15-day average closing bid price of the common stock on March 17, 1999 and is subject to the maximum conversion price equal to the lesser of $3.00 or the trailing five-day average closing bid price of the common stock on March 17, 1999.>>

Sounds like a 20% discount to a five day trailing average with a minimum and maximum to me.

<<...as of June 30, 1998. Since then they've had some cash infusions...>>

I saw $2.2 million in November. Any others?

<<...and we certainly hope some significant sales have started to close now that the companies that follow a more conventional fiscal year have pretty well finalized their budgets.>>

I saw the press release about Moody's earlier this month. Have there been others mentioned?
