On April 26, 2010, the Company issued a press release announcing that it has received notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) confirming that the Company has regained compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
The Company had previously announced that it had received notice from Nasdaq on November 13, 2009 that it was not in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company was provided with 180 days, or until May 12, 2010, to come into compliance with the rule. On April 26, 2010, Nasdaq confirmed to the Company that, as a result of the Company’s common stock closing with a bid price of at least $1.00 for at least ten consecutive trading days, the Company has come back into compliance with the rule and the matter is now closed.
A copy of the Company’s press release is Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
