ITEM 5. OTHER ITEMS.
As described in a previous report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July
20, 2000, Titan was notified by Nasdaq that it was not in compliance with
Nasdaq's continued SmallCap Market criteria. Specifically, Nasdaq noted that
Titan did not have either $2 million in net tangible assets, $35 million of
market capitalization or $5 million in net income. Subsequent to Nasdaq's
notification, Titan's Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stockholders
agreed to modify the terms of their preferred stock so that the preferred stock
would be characterized under generally accepted accounting principles as equity
rather than as mezzanine instruments, which had the effect of increasing Titan's
net tangible assets. On May 24, 2000, Titan submitted a plan of compliance and a
request for extension to comply with Nasdaq's maintenance criteria. By a letter
dated September 22, 2000, Nasdaq approved Titan's plan of compliance and granted
the Company's request for an extension to regain compliance.
To demonstrate compliance with Nasdaq's net tangible asset requirement,
Titan is filing this report together with an unaudited balance sheet and
unaudited income statement giving effect, on a pro forma basis, to the
recharacterization of the Series A and B Convertible Preferred Stock from
mezzanine debt to equity. The balance sheet and income statement are set forth
below.
Despite Titan's compliance with Nasdaq's net tangible assets requirement,
Titan continues to be at risk of delisting by Nasdaq. As described in a previous
report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 23, 2000, Titan's two
independent directors resigned on August 18, 2000. By a letter dated September
22, 2000, Nasdaq has informed Titan that it no longer meets the independent
director and Audit Committee requirements currently applicable to the Company.
Titan must submit a plan and timetable of compliance with Nasdaq by October 6,
2000, detailing how it intends to comply with these requirements.
As described in a previous report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on
September 7, 2000, Titan received a letter from Nasdaq on August 30, 2000
informing Titan that its common stock had failed to meet the minimum bid price
of $1.00 over the preceding 30 consecutive trading days, and that, as a result,
Titan did not meet the maintenance criteria for continued listing on the Nasdaq
SmallCap Market. Pursuant to the letter, Nasdaq has provided Titan 90 days to
comply with the minimum bid price requirement. If Titan is unable to comply by
November 28, 2000, its common stock will be delisted at the opening of business
on November 30, 2000.
If the Company fails to maintain its Nasdaq SmallCap Market listing for
its securities, trading in its stock is likely to be materially adversely
effected. Among other things, the Company's common stock would then constitute
"penny stock," which would place increased regulatory burden upon brokers,
making them less likely to make a market in the stock.
In addition, if Titan is delisted, it will constitute a default under the
terms of the Securities Purchase Agreements covering the 12% Convertible
Debentures and the Series A, Series B and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock
previously issued by Titan. As a result, Titan may be required to redeem the
Debentures or the Convertible Preferred Stock at a time when it does not have
sufficient funds to do so. In this case, Titan may be forced into liquidation or
reorganization under the federal bankruptcy laws.
