Item 3.01(b). Notice of Failure to Satisfy a Continuing American Stock Exchange Listing Standard.
The Standards of the American Stock Exchange, on which Registrant is listed, require that all listed companies have and maintain a majority of independent directors. See Sections 121A and 802(a). Registrant has had five independent directors and four management directors. Registrant notified the Exchange on September 10, 2007 of Dr. Atkinson’s imminent resignation as an independent director (see Item 5.02(b) hereof). As a result, Registrant anticipates receiving from the Exchange a warning letter that it is not in compliance with these sections and further anticipates that the Exchange will allow it a reasonable time within which to become again compliant. Registrant has commenced an appropriate search for a qualified individual to fill the independent director vacancy and expects that this vacancy will be filled within a reasonable time.
Item 5.02(b). Resignation of Director.
Dr. Richard C. Atkinson, an independent director of Registrant, has informed us that, effective October 1, 2007, he will resign from the Board of Directors due to the time he must devote to his academic and community commitments.
