Item
3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or
Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On
September 18, 2008, the Singing Machine (the "Company") received a written
notice from the American Stock Exchange (the "AMEX" or “Exchange”) advising that
the Company was not in compliance with the AMEX's listing requirements
(contained in Section 1003(a)(ii) of the AMEX Company Guide) because its has
shareholders’ equity of less than $4,000,000 and losses from continuing
operations and/or net losses in three out of its four most recent fiscal
years.
In
order
to maintain its AMEX listing, the Company must submit a recovery plan by October
16, 2008, advising the AMEX of action it has taken or will take to bring the
Company into compliance with the continued listing standards by March 31, 2009.
Acceptance of such plan is at the discretion of the AMEX. If the plan is
accepted, the Company will be able to continue its listing during the plan
period, during which time it will be subject to periodic review to determine
whether it is making progress consistent with the plan. If the Company is not
in
compliance with the listing standards by March 31, 2009 or fails the periodic
reviews, the AMEX will initiate delisting proceedings.
AMEX
also
notified the Company that pursuant to Company Guide Section 1003(f)(v) the
Exchange deems the Company’s share selling price too low and requests that the
Company effect a reverse stock split to address its low selling price. Failure
to do so within a reasonable amount of time may result in suspended dealings
or
removal from the Exchange.
The
Company, at this time, is planning to prepare and submit, in a timely manner,
a
plan in accordance with the AMEX requirements.
