Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On September 25, 2011, the Company received board of director approval for a one-for-three reverse split of its common stock and a reduction in the number of authorized shares of common stock from 150,000,000 to 50,000,000 and preferred stock from 60,000,000 to 30,000,000. These changes will be reflected in an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation and are subject to stockholder approval. The Company will call a special meeting of stockholders at which it will seek stockholder approval for an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation that effects the reverse split and the reduces the authorized capital stock.
The board action follows the receipt on September 8, 2011 of a staff deficiency notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market informing the Company that its common stock failed to comply with the $1.00 minimum bid price required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). Nasdaq’s letter stated that to regain compliance, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock must be at least $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days within the 180-day compliance period ending on March 6, 2012. The board approved the reverse split as a means of meeting Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements and intends to effect the reverse split if it is necessary to meet Nasdaq’s price maintenance requirements. However, no assurance can be given that the reverse split will enable the Company’s common stock to comply with Nasdaq’s price maintenance requirements.
On September 28, 2011, the Company issued a press release with respect to board approval of the reverse split.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any of the Company’s filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, whether made before or after the date hereof and regardless of any general incorporation language in such filings, except to the extent expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
