In accordance with the NYSE’s policies, the NYSE will not take any additional action to pursue delisting of the Company’s common stock until the appeal has been fully exhausted in accordance with the NYSE’s procedures.
Pending this review, the Company’s common stock has been trading on the OTCQB Marketplace since January 6, 2012 under the symbol “GRBE”. Trading of the Company’s stock to the OTCQB Marketplace has had no effect on the Company’s shares and the Company’s shareholders continue to remain owners of the common stock and are currently able to trade the stock on the OTCQB Marketplace.
