Pharmos Corporation received a Nasdaq Staff Determination on September 23, 2008 indicating that Pharmos fails to comply with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing set forth in Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4), and that the Staff has therefore determined to delist Pharmos’ securities from The Nasdaq Capital Market.
