Item 8.01 Other Events.
As we
previously reported, on November 7, 2018 the Listing Qualifications
Staff (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market
(“Nasdaq”) notified us that our common stock failed to
maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 over the previous 30
consecutive business days as required by the Listing Rules of
Nasdaq. On February 25, 2019, the Staff notified us that it has
determined that for the 10 consecutive business days, from February
8, 2019 to February 22, 2019, the closing bid price of our common
stock has been at $1.00 per share or greater. Accordingly, we have
regained compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), and this matter
is now closed with Nasdaq.
