Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
As previously reported, on March 27, 2017, the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement to the credit facility (the "Forbearance Agreement") with BMO Harris Bank N.A. and its Canadian affiliate, Bank of Montreal. Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, the banks agreed to forbear from exercising their rights and remedies under the credit facility with respect to the Company’s non-compliance with applicable financial and other covenants and any further non-compliance with such covenants during the forbearance period, provided no other defaults occurred. The Forbearance Agreement was amended on June 23, 2017 to extend the forbearance period, which had originally expired on May 26, 2017, until August 31, 2017 and to resolve certain new defaults. The amendment also permits the Company to add the quarterly interest payments otherwise due for the second quarter of 2017 to the principal amount of debt outstanding and defer the $250,000 principal payment due on June 30, 2017 to the end of the forbearance period.
On June 28, 2017, the Company issued a press release announcing the amendment of the Forbearance Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
On June 27, 2017, the Company received notification from the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "Panel") that the Panel has determined to delist the Company's shares from the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") and will suspend trading in the Company's shares effective at the open of business on June 29, 2017. Nasdaq Stock Market will complete the delisting by filing a Form 25, Notification of Delisting with the Securities Exchange Commission, after applicable appeal periods have lapsed. The Panel's determination was due to the Company’s continuing non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) and, in particular, its failure to file its 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”) by the extended due date of June 23, 2017.
It is anticipated that the Company's common stock will be quoted on the OTC Pink operated by the OTC Markets Group Inc. (also known as the "Pink Sheets") subsequent to the effectiveness of the suspension of trading of the Company's common stock on Nasdaq.
The Company continues to be actively engaged with its independent auditors to complete its annual audit and quarterly review so that all delinquent periodic reports may be filed with the SEC as soon as possible.
Included in the press release, attached as Exhibit 99.1 and referenced in Item 1.01, is an announcement of the Panel’s delisting decision.
