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

 

On April 1, 2016, the New York Stock Exchange notified us that we had satisfied the NYSE’s share price continued listing standard by virtue of the fact that as of March 31, 2016, both the closing share price of our common stock and its average closing share price over the preceding 30 consecutive trading days were in compliance with the $1.00 minimum threshold required by the NYSE.  As previously disclosed, we received written notice from the NYSE on January 18, 2016 that we were not in compliance with this $1.00 minimum threshold and were afforded six months, or until July 18, 2016, to cure the non-compliance.  As we have cured the non-compliance prior to the cure deadline imposed by the NYSE, our common stock will continue to be traded on the NYSE, subject to our continued compliance with all other applicable NYSE requirements.

 

On April 1, 2016, we issued a press release announcing the above development.  A copy of the press release is included as an exhibit to this report.
