Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On April 25, 2013, we received written notification from The Nasdaq Stock Market that we are no longer in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) because the market value of our listed securities has fallen below the $35 million minimum requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market for a period of at least 30 consecutive business days. Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), we had 180 calendar days to regain compliance. Compliance can be achieved by meeting the $35 million minimum requirement for market value of listed securities for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days during the 180-day compliance period. On October 23, 2013 we received written notification from The Nasdaq Stock Market that we have not regained compliance during that period and that our common stock would be delisted at the open of business on November 1, 2013. The Nasdaq rules permit us to appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq Hearing Panel, and we have requested a hearing from Nasdaq for an appeal. A hearing request stays the delisting pending the Panel’s decision, and our common stock will continue to be listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market during this time. If our appeal is unsuccessful we intend to takes the necessary steps to have our common stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin or in the “Pink Sheets.”
