Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule
or Standard; Transfer of Listing. |
On June 17, 2005, the Company filed an application with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “Commission”) to voluntarily delist its common stock from trading on the American Stock
Exchange (the “Amex”) and requested that the Amex suspend trading in the Company’s common stock if
and at the time that the Commission granted the Company’s request to withdraw its common stock from
listing. On August 18, 2005 the Company received an order from the Commission approving its
delisting application, and, as a result of the Commission’s order, the Amex delisted the Company’s
common stock on August 18, 2005.
As a result of the delisting, the Company is attempting to have its common stock quoted on
Pink Sheets; however, the Company can provide no assurance that quotations for its common stock
will be included in the Pink Sheets or other quotation service.
A copy of the press release announcing the approval of the delisting application by the
Commission is filed with this Current Report as Exhibit 99.1.
