Item 3.01.		Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On May 16, 2007, IRIDEX Corporation (“Iridex” or the “Company”) received a written Staff Determination notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market, stating that Iridex is not in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14). This notice was received because the Company has not filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2007 (the “1st Quarter Form 10-Q”). The Company issued a press release on May 18, 2007 disclosing its receipt of this Nasdaq Staff Determination notice. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

The Nasdaq Staff Determination notice indicated that the Company’s securities will be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Market unless Iridex requests a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”). Accordingly, the Company announced on May 21, 2007 that it will request a hearing before the Panel to review the Nasdaq Staff Determination notice. Pending a decision by the Panel, Iridex’s common stock will remain listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market. However, there can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing.

As previously announced the Company is still working to obtain financial information related to the Company’s acquisition of the aesthetics business of Laserscope, a California corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of American Medical Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation, which was completed on January 16, 2007. The information is necessary to allow the Company to properly account for the acquisition and to make the appropriate financial statement disclosures, including providing pro forma financial information. The Company previously disclosed in its filing on Form 12b-25 dated May 16, 2007, that it would not be able to file its 1st Quarter Form 10-Q until it obtains and processes this information. The Company will make every effort to file its 1st Quarter Form 10-Q as soon as practicable after it receives the necessary information.
