CARLSBAD, CA. — December 3, 2003 — NexPrise, Inc. (Nasdaq: NXPS), a provider of business process automation and management applications, today announced its Common Stock will phase down from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market to the OTC Bulletin Board, effective with the open of business on Friday, December 5, 2003. After reviewing the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2003, Nasdaq issued a Staff Determination on November 26, 2003 advising the Company that reported stockholders’ equity was below the continued listing minimum required by Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(2)(B).
