GLOBALMEDIA.COM REQUESTS NASDAQ HEARING
REGARDING SCHEDULED DELISTING OF ITS COMMON STOCK
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, March 1, 2001, GlobalMedia.com (Nasdaq: GLMC) announced today that it has requested a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualification Panel (the "Panel") to review the scheduled delisting of GlobalMedia.com's common stock from the National Market System. GlobalMedia.com received a Nasdaq Staff Determination notice on February 21, 2001 indicating that its common stock had failed to maintain a minimum bid price of at least $1.00 as required for continued listing by Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(05), and that its securities are, therefore, subject to delisting. Under the Nasdaq rules, the scheduled delisting is stayed pending the outcome of the hearing, which is scheduled for March 30, 2001. GlobalMedia.com is actively pursuing measures to bring it back into compliance with the Nasdaq rules. However, there can be no assurance that GlobalMedia.com's efforts will be successful or that the Panel will grant GlobalMedia.com's request for continued listing.
