2. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, the Company reported a stockholders' deficit of $3,229,000, a working capital deficit of $6,306,000, and an accumulated deficit of $122,099,000. Additionally, the Company disclosed on June 2, 2005 that it filed a voluntary petition for re-organization under Chapter 11 of the Federal bankruptcy laws.
3. The Company failed to timely file its Form 10-Q with the Commission for the period ended March 31, 2005 and, on May 21, 2005 the Company's independent auditors, BDO Seidman, informed the Company that its audit reports with respect to the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004 should no longer be relied upon. Consequently, the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004 were considered defective.
4. The Company failed to provide additional information requested by the Exchange.
By letter dated September 13, 2004, in accordance with Section 1009 of the Company Guide, Amex advised the Company of its status in relation to the standards of the Exhange and offered the Company an opportunity to submit a business plan in support of continued listing. The Exchange's letter advised the Company that it would need to regain compliance with the Exchange's continued listing standards by March 13, 2006. The Company submitted its plan by various correspondences between October 21, 2004 and December 13, 2004. The Exchange accepted the Company's plan by letter dated December 16, 2004.
By letter dated May 26, 2005, in accordance with Section 1009 of the Company Guide, the Exchange advised the Company that it did not comply with several additional listing standards and offered the Company an opportunity to submit a revised business plan addressing how the Company planned to comply with Sections 134, 1101, and 1003(d) of the Company Guide by July 11, 2005, and also how it would regain compliance with the Exchange's other continued listing standards by March 13, 2006. Additionally, Amex requested additional information relating to the Company's press releases and periodic filings where the Company disclosed, among other things, the resignation of its independent auditors, the resignation of its Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer, Andrew Brown, an event of default under the Company's January and March 2005 securities purchase agreements, and the initiation of a board of director investigation into certain actions undertaken by Mr. Brown. The Company did not submit a revised business plan or the additional information requested by Amex by the required date of June 2, 2005. Subsequently, the Exchange determined that the Security did not qualify for continued listing. This determination, along with the Company's right to appeal, was communicated to the Company by letter dated June 6, 2005. The Company did not appeal the Exchange's determination within the requisite time period or thereafter.
The Commission, having considered the facts stated in Amex's application and having due regard for the public interest and protection of investors, orders that the application be, and it hereby is, granted, effective at the opening of business on July 5, 2005.
For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated authority.
Jonathan G. Katz
