Item 3.01.

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

On December 30, 2009, after careful review and consideration, the Company announced that it will not be able to submit a plan to regain compliance with the NYSE Amex LLC (“NYSE Amex” or the “Exchange”) continued listing standards. As previously disclosed, on December 1, 2009 the Company received a notice dated November 30, 2009 from NYSE Amex indicating that the Company was not in compliance with the continued listing standards set forth in Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Exchange’s Company Guide with stockholders’ equity of less than $4,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three out of its four most recent fiscal years and Section 1003(a)(iii) of the Exchange’s Company Guide with stockholders’ 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 was afforded the opportunity to submit a plan to NYSE Amex by December 30, 2009, which was later extended to January 6, 2010, addressing how it intended to regain compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii) and Section 1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide. As a result of the decision not to submit a plan, the Company has been informed by NYSE Amex that the Company will be subject to delisting proceedings.

The Company expects that its common stock will be traded on the over-the-counter market and quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board upon delisting from the NYSE Amex. There can be no assurance that any broker-dealer will be willing to act as a market maker in the Company’s shares or that, if such quotations begin, they will continue for any length of time.

On December 30, 2009, the Company issued a press release announcing that it will not be able to submit a plan to regain compliance with NYSE Amex continued listing standards. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
