The Company evaluates and discloses subsequent events as required by ASC Topic No. 855, Subsequent Events. The Topic establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Subsequent events have been evaluated as of the date of this filing and no further disclosures were required other than the following:

NASDAQ Letter

On November 7, 2013, we received a notice from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC stating that the minimum bid price of our common stock had been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days and that the Company was therefore not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing set forth in Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2). The notification letter states that we will be afforded 180 calendar days, or until May 6, 2014, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of our common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for at least ten consecutive business days. NASDAQ may, in its discretion, require our common stock to maintain a bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a period in excess of ten consecutive business days, but generally no more than 20 consecutive business days, before determining that the Company has demonstrated an ability to maintain long-term compliance.

If we do not regain compliance by May 6, 2014, but meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable standards for initial listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market (with the exception of the minimum bid price requirement), the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-day compliance period. Unless NASDAQ determines that it does not appear possible for the Company to cure the deficiency, we will be granted the additional 180-day compliance period if we notify NASDAQ of our intent to come into compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. If the Company is not eligible for the additional 180-day compliance period, NASDAQ will provide written notice that our securities will be delisted. At that time, we may appeal the delisting determination to an independent Hearings Panel authorized by the NASDAQ Board of Directors.

We intend to continue actively monitoring the bid price for our common stock between now and May 6, 2014, and will consider available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the NASDAQ minimum bid price requirement. There is no assurance, however, that the Company will pursue efforts to continue to be listed, that the Company will be eligible for an additional compliance period or that our common stock will not be delisted.
