Item 5 Other Events
On May 14, 2003, the Company announced Nasdaq’s denial of the Company’s request for continued listing on The Nasdaq National Market and announced the Company’s appeal of that decision to a Listing Qualifications Panel.
On May 29, 2003, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq stating that the continued listing of the Company’s stock on The Nasdaq National Market also raises public interest concerns in accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rules 4300 and 4330(a)(3). The Nasdaq staff requested that the Company address Nasdaq’s additional concerns at the appeals hearing.
The Company cannot predict whether the Listings Qualifications Panel will approve the Company’s request for continued listing. If the appeal is denied, the Company will cease trading on The Nasdaq National Market and will take steps to have its stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board.
