ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS AND REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.
The Company received a Nasdaq Staff Determination on August 29, 2000,
indicating that the Company failed to comply with the minimum bid price
requirement for continued listing as set forth in Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4),
and therefore, its securities are subject to delisting from the Nasdaq SmallCap
Market. The Company subsequently requested a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing
Qualifications Panel to review the Staff Determination. There can be no
assurance that the Panel will grant the Company's request for continued listing.
On November 28, 2000, the Company received notification from the Nasdaq
Listing Qualification Hearings Department that the hearing is to take place on
Tuesday, December 19, 2000. Pending such hearing, the delisting action has been
stayed.
A copy of the release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is
incorporated herein by reference.
