ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
As previously reported in a news release dated September 29, 2000, the
listing of the Company's common stock was transferred from the Nasdaq National
Market to the Nasdaq SmallCap Market effective October 2, 2000 pursuant to an
exception from the net tangible assets requirement granted by the Nasdaq Listing
Qualifications Panel pursuant to a letter from Nasdaq dated September 27, 2000.
Because the Company's net tangible assets have been below the $2 million minimum
required by the Nasdaq SmallCap, Nasdaq conditioned the listing of the Company's
common stock on the Company filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission
and Nasdaq by October 16, 2000, a pro forma balance sheet as of August 31, 2000
evidencing net tangible assets of at least $2 million, and filing by January 2,
2001, a pro forma balance sheet as of November 30, 2000 evidencing tangible net
assets of at least $3.8 million.
On October 11, 2000, the Company sold 1,750,000 shares of common stock
for $.80 per share to certain investors and issued warrants to purchase 175,000
shares of common stock (the "Financing"). The warrants have a term of ten years
and an exercise price of $.80 per share and are exercisable immediately. The
Company agreed to file a registration statement relating to the resale of the
shares of common stock and the shares of common stock underlying the warrants
within 30 days of closing the Financing.
In accordance with Nasdaq's request, the Company has prepared the
following balance sheet as of August 31, 2000, including pro forma adjustments
for any significant events or transactions occurring on or before the filing
date of this Form 8-K. The pro forma adjustments relate to the Financing and
other significant events or transactions occurring on or before the date of this
Form 8-K. The information presented on the attached August 31, 2000 pro forma
balance sheet has not been audited by independent accountants. This information
is provided solely for the purpose of complying with the requirements delineated
by Nasdaq pursuant to the exception to the listing requirement granted to the
Company. The pro forma balance sheet as of August 31, 2000 reflects tangible net
assets of $2.2 million, which is above the minimum required under the Nasdaq
SmallCap Market listing requirements and satisfies the first requirement set
forth in the Nasdaq letter. The Company is proceeding with plans that will
enable the Company to evidence tangible net assets of at least $3.8 million by
January 2, 2001.
