ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
The Company has received correspondence from the Nasdaq Stock Market,
Inc. ("Nasdaq") regarding the continued listing of the Company's Common Stock on
the Nasdaq National Market. Nasdaq informed the Company of its decision to
delist the Company's common stock from the Nasdaq National Market because the
Company has failed to maintain a minimum market value of public float of
$5,000,000 over the 30 consecutive trading days preceding such notice. The
Company is in the process of appealing the Nasdaq decision, and the process has
been suspended pending resolution of the appeal. If Rocky Mountain is not
successful in its appeal, the Company intends to list its securities on The
Nasdaq SmallCap Market, pending the submission, and review by Nasdaq, of a
listing application.
