Item 8.01 Other Events ---------------------- The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") is the organization responsible for reviewing and processing documents relating to corporate actions for Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board listed companies. On December 30, 2009, as previously disclosed, the Company effected a 100-for-1 reverse split of its Common Stock followed immediately by a 1-for-20 forward split (collectively, the "Stock Splits"). The net effect of the Stock Splits was a 5-for-1 reverse split of the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock issued and outstanding on December 30, 2009. On February 9, 2010, the Company was notified by FINRA that the necessary changes to reflect the Stock Splits will be effected in the market reporting of the Company's Common Stock at the start of trading on February 10, 2010. For a period of twenty trading days beginning on February 10, 2010, the Company's Common Stock will trade under the symbol "OMAG", with the letter "D" added to the end of the trading symbol to indicate that the Stock Splits are now reflected in the market reporting of the Company's Common Stock. After the aforementioned twenty trading day period expires, the symbol for the Company's Common Stock will revert to its previous trading symbol of "OMAG". After giving effect to the Stock Splits, the Company's Common Stock will also have a new CUSIP number which is 681659 207. Additional information about the Stock Splits is available in the Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on January 4, 2010 and in the Company's definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on November 30, 2009. Stockholders holding shares of the Company's Common Stock in certificate form will be notified by the Company's transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, regarding the process for exchanging such existing stock certificates for new certificates reflecting the Stock Splits . Stockholders holding shares of the Company's Common Stock in "street name" through a brokerage account will have the number of their shares of Common Stock automatically adjusted to reflect the Stock Splits.
