Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
(d) On April 9, 2007, the board of directors of Refac Optical Group (the “Company”) approved the delisting of the Company’s common stock from the American Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”). The stock will be delisted in connection with the merger of the Company with ROG Acquisition, Inc., pursuant to which the Company will become a private company. The merger is expected to be completed on or about April 26, 2007. In accordance with Rule 12d2-2(c)(2)(ii) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, on April 9, 2007, the Company sent a letter to the Exchange to notify the Exchange of its intention to file a Form 25 on or about April 19, 2007 to delist its common stock. The Company has not arranged for the listing of its common stock on another national securities exchange or for the quotation of its common stock in a quotation medium. By operation of law, the delisting from the Exchange will be effective on April 29, 2007, unless the Form 25 is withdrawn by the Company in advance of such date. The Company reserves the right to delay the filing of the Form 25 or withdraw the Form 25 for any reason prior to its effectiveness.
On April 9, 2007 the Company issued a press release regarding the foregoing, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
