Item
3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or
Standard
On
January 28th, 2010 Speedus Corp. received notice from Nasdaq, in the form of a
staff determination letter, informing the Company that it did not meet the terms
of the extension granted to the Company on December 11, 2009 to comply with the
stockholders’ equity requirement of Marketplace Listing Rule 5550(b) (the
“Rule”), which requires the Company to maintain either (1) a minimum of $2.5
million in stockholders’ equity; (2) market value of listed securities of $35
million; or (3) net income from continuing operations of $500,000 in the most
recently completed fiscal year or two of the last three most recently completed
fiscal years.
On
February 2, 2010, Speedus submitted an appeal regarding the Nasdaq staff
determination by requesting a hearing with the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the
“Panel”). As a result, a hearing has been scheduled for March 11, 2010, at which
time the Panel will consider the plan Speedus has developed for regaining and
sustaining compliance with the Rule. The Panel generally issues a decision
within 30 to 45 days following a hearing.
While the
Panel has the authority to grant the Company up to 180 days from January 28,
2010 to regain compliance with the Rule, there can be no assurance that the
Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing. The Company's
securities will continue to be listed on Nasdaq during this appeal
process.
