Item 3.01    Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
 
On November 18, 2010, we received a letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) advising us that we are not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires that we maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in shareholders’ equity for continued listing.

In our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, our unaudited Condensed Balance Sheet listed our shareholders’ equity at $2,350,076, or below the $2,500,000 minimum required for continued listing.

As we have previously publicly announced, we and the Financing Transaction Investors have agreed to settle all claims arising from the Financing Transaction and the Financing Transaction Litigation.  We recorded a contingency expense in the amount of $1,038,000 related to this settlement in our September 30 balance sheet.  For additional information about the contingency expense, see Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our September 30, 2010 10-Q.

The $1,038,000 contingency expense reflects our obligation, as part of the settlement, to issue an aggregate of 600,000 shares of common stock (the “Settlement Shares”) to the Financing Transaction Investors in exchange for their surrender of the Series 1 Warrants and the dismissal of all claims in and related to the Financing Transaction Litigation (the “3(a)(10) Exchange”).

The 3(a)(10) Exchange is being effected pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act (the “3(a)(10) Exemption”).  On November 18, 2010, the Court in the Financing Transaction Litigation found that the terms and conditions of the 3(a)(10) Exchange are fair to the Financing Transaction Investors.  The Settlement Shares will be issued to the Financing Transaction Investors upon acceptance of the Settlement Shares for listing on Nasdaq.

Nasdaq has given us 45 days to submit a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq Rule 5550(b)(1).  When the Settlement Shares are issued, which we anticipate to occur in the near future, the contingency expense will be cancelled and the $1,038,000 value of the Settlement Shares will be added to shareholders’ equity.  At that time, our shareholders’ equity will again exceed $2,500,000 and we will regain compliance with Nasdaq Rule 5550(b)(1).

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements.  You should not rely on forward-looking statements because they are subject to uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control.  The Company may experience significant fluctuations in future operating results due to a number of economic, competitive, and other factors, including, among other things, listing the Settlement Shares on Nasdaq, our history of losses and negative cash flow, our reliance on third-party financing, our reliance on third-party manufacturers and suppliers, government agency budgetary and political constraints, new or increased competition, changes in market demand, and the performance or reliability of our products.  This, plus other uncertainties and factors described in our reports and our most-recent prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, could materially affect the Company and our operations.  These documents are available electronically without charge at www.sec.gov.
