In accordance with the Panela™s decision, on or before February 28, 2011, the Company must evidence a closing bid price of $1.00 or more for a minimum of ten prior consecutive trading days. Under Nasdaqa™s rules, this date represents the maximum length of time that the Panel may grant to regain compliance.
