Section 3 Securities and Trading Markets

 

Item 3.01.  Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard.

 

On October 19, 2007, the Company received a letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market notifying the Company that as a result of the resignation of Myron J. Goins as a director of the Company effective October 16, 2007 the Company was no longer in compliance with Nasdaq’s independent director requirement in accordance with Marketplace Rule 4350(c)(1) which requires a majority of the board of directors consist of independent directors and 4350(d)(4) requiring the participation of three independent directors on the audit committee.

 

Consistent with the marketplace rules, NASDAQ will provide the Company a cure period in order to regain compliance as follows:

 

                  until the earlier of the Company’s next annual shareholders’ meeting or October 16, 2008: or

                  if the next annual shareholders’ meeting is held before April 14, 2008, then the Company must evidence compliance no later than April 14, 2008.

 

  If the Company fails to regain compliance within this cure period, its common stock is subject to delisting upon notification of such a determination by Nasdaq staff, which determination may be appealed.

 

In compliance with Marketplace Rule 4803(a), the Company, on October 22, 2007, issued a press release announcing this event.  A copy of the Company’s press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by this reference.
