Item
3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or
Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On
September 16, 2008 the Company received notice from the NYSE Alternext US (the
“Exchange”) indicating that the Company was below certain requirements of the
Exchange’s continued listing standards as of June 30, 2008. Specifically,
shareholders’ equity was less than $4,000,000 and there were losses from
continuing operations in three of its four most recent fiscal years, as set
forth in Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Exchange’s Company Guide. In
response, the Company submitted a timely plan of compliance to the
Exchange. In a letter dated December 12, 2008 from the Exchange the
Company was officially notified that the Exchange had accepted the Company’s
plan of compliance and the Company has until March 31, 2009 to complete the plan
and regain compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Exchange’s Company
Guide. Staff advised the Company that it will be subject to periodic
review by the Exchange during the extension period and that failure to make
progress consistent with the Company’s plan could result in
delisting.
Also in
that same letter dated December 12, 2008, the Exchange Staff has notified the
Company that it deems the Company’s common stock selling price as too low. The
Exchange has informed the Company that it must address its low selling price by
June 12, 2009 in order to remain in compliance with Company Guide Section
1003(f)(v).
