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

 

On May 14, 2015, the Company received a letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) notifying the Company of the NASDAQ’s determination that the Company had failed to comply with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5810(b) due to the fact that Kristine F. Hughes, a non-independent director, had been appointed as a member of the Company’s Governance Committee.  Prior to notification, Ms. Hughes had participated in one meeting of the Governance Committee in which no material activities were discussed or actions taken.  Ms. Hughes had already resigned from the Governance Committee by the time the Company had received the notification letter, which resignation was effective as of April 28, 2015.  In light of her resignation, NASDAQ has notified the Company that it had regained compliance with Rule 5810(b) and that the matter is now closed.
