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

 

On May 18, 2016, the Company announced that The Nasdaq Stock Market (“ NASDAQ ”) has determined that the Company’s securities will be delisted from NASDAQ. The decision was reached by the staff because, among other reasons, the Company did not hold an annual meeting for fiscal year 2015, as required by Rule 5620(a) of NASDAQ’s continued listing requirements (the “Listing Rules”), and failed to solicit proxies, as required by Listing Rule 5620(b). The letter states that trading of Company’s common stock will be suspended at the opening of business on May 19, 2016, and NASDAQ will file a Form 25-NSE with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which will remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on NASDAQ.

 

Item 8.01.                                         Other Events

 

On May 18, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing the suspension and proposed delisting of the Company’s common stock, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and which is incorporated herein by reference.
