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

 

On March 24, 2008, Evans & Sutherland Computer Corporation (“E&S”) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, for the prior 30 consecutive trading days, E&S common stock had not maintained the minimum market value of publicly held shares of $5,000,000 required for continued listing, as set forth in Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(2) (the “MVPHS Rule”).  The letter also indicated that, in accordance with Marketplace Rule 4450(e)(1), E&S will be provided 90 calendar days, or until June 23, 2008, to regain compliance, and if at any time before June 23, 2008 the minimum market value of publicly held shares of E&S’s common stock is $5,000,000 or greater for a minimum of ten consecutive trading days, the Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that E&S complies with the MVPHS Rule. The Nasdaq letter further states that if E&S does not regain compliance with the MVPHS Rule by June 23, 2008, the Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that E&S’s securities will be delisted.  At that time, the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules would permit E&S to appeal the Nasdaq staff’s determination to delist its securities to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel.

 

E&S is currently evaluating its alternatives to resolve the listing deficiency. If E&S is unable to resolve the listing deficiency, it may apply to transfer its common stock to the Nasdaq Capital Market if its securities satisfy the requirements for continued inclusion for The Nasdaq Capital Market. If E&S submits a transfer application and pays the applicable listing fees by June 23, 2008, the initiation of the delisting proceedings will be stayed pending the Nasdaq Staff’s review of the application. If the Nasdaq Staff does not approve the transfer application, the Nasdaq Staff will provide written notification that E&S’s common stock will be delisted. The Nasdaq letter has no effect on the listing of E&S’s common stock at this time.

 

On March 28, 2008, E&S issued the press release regarding the Nasdaq letter, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein.

SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH, March 28, 2008, Evans & Sutherland Computer Corporation (E&S) (NASDAQ: ESCC) today announced that on March 24, 2008, it received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, for the prior 30 consecutive trading days, its common stock had not maintained the minimum market value of publicly held shares of $5,000,000 required for continued listing, as set forth in Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(2).  According to the Nasdaq letter, E&S will have 90 calendar days, or until June 23, 2008, to regain compliance.

 

If at any time before June 23, 2008, the minimum market value of publicly held shares of E&S’s common stock is $5,000,000 or greater for a minimum of ten consecutive trading days, Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that E&S complies with Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(2).  If E&S does not regain compliance by June 23, 2008, the Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that E&S’s securities will be delisted.  At that time, the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules would permit E&S to appeal the Nasdaq staff’s determination to delist its securities to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel.

 

E&S is currently evaluating its alternatives to resolve the listing deficiency. If E&S is unable to resolve the listing deficiency, it may apply to transfer its common stock to the Nasdaq Capital Market if its securities satisfy the requirements for continued inclusion for The Nasdaq Capital Market. If E&S submits a transfer application and pays the applicable listing fees by June 23, 2008, the initiation of the delisting proceedings will be stayed pending the Nasdaq Staff’s review of the application. If the Nasdaq Staff does not approve the transfer application, the Nasdaq Staff will provide written notification that

 



 

E&S’s common stock will be delisted. The Nasdaq letter of March 24, 2008 has no effect on the listing of E&S’s common stock at this time.
