of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard;
Transfer of Listing.
On
July
13, 2005, the American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”) notified DOR BioPharma, Inc. (the
“Company”) that after review of the Company’s Compliance plan submitted on
December 30, 2004, and after review of the submission dated July 6, 2005, it
has
determined that, in accordance with Section 1009 of the Company Guide, the
period to regain compliance has been extended to October 15, 2005. This
extension is granted in order to regain compliance with the continued listing
standard of Section 1003 (a)(iii) of the Company Guide with shareholder’s equity
of less than $6,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses
in its five most recent fiscal years.
The
Company must continue to provide the staff of AMEX with updates in conjunction
with the initiatives under the plan as appropriate or requested. The Company
will be subject to periodic review by the Exchange Staff during the extension
period. Failure to make progress consistent with the plan or to regain
compliance with the continued listing standards by the end of the extension
period could result in the Company being delisted from the American Stock
Exchange.
