Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As previously disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 19, 2006, we received a Nasdaq Staff Determination Letter dated October 13, 2006 indicating that our common stock is subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Global Select Market pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14). Subsequently, the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel granted our request for continued listing of our securities on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, subject to the conditions that: (1) we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or before November 30, 2006 our Form 10-Q for the three months ended May 31, 2006, our Form 10-Q for the three months ended August 31, 2006, and all required restatements; and (2) on or about November 17, 2006, we provide the Nasdaq Hearings Department with additional information regarding our internal review of our historical stock option practices and related accounting.
We expect each of these conditions to be satisfied on or before December 15, 2006. Although the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel has not granted us a formal written extension of the above conditions, based on communications with the staff of the Nasdaq Stock Market, we believe that the conditional listing of our common stock will remain in effect until at least December 15, 2006.
Although we expect to satisfy each of these conditions on or before December 15, 2006, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to do so.
On November 30, 2006, we issued a press release announcing our expectation to file the reports described above on or before December 15, 2006 and our belief that the conditional listing of our common stock will remain in effect until at least December 15, 2006. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference.
