ITEM 3.01 NOTICE OF DELISTING OR FAILURE TO SATISFY A CONTINUED LISTING RULE OR STANDARD; TRANSFER OF LISTING
(d) On December 11, 2009, Granite City Food & Brewery Ltd. (the “Company”) received notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) that its application to transfer the listing of its common stock from the NASDAQ Global Market to the NASDAQ Capital Market had been approved. The transfer was effective at the opening of the market on December 14, 2009. The Company’s common stock will continue to trade under the symbol “GCFB.”
The Company believes it is in compliance with the applicable criteria for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market, except for the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement. The Company has until January 29, 2010, to meet the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement.
The Company submitted its application to transfer to the NASDAQ Capital Market in response to the letter the Company received from NASDAQ informing the Company that for 30 consecutive business days, the Company’s common stock had not maintained the minimum market value of publicly held shares of $15,000,000 for continued inclusion on the NASDAQ Global Market under Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(C) or 5450(b)(3)(C).
The NASDAQ Capital Market is one of the three market tiers for NASDAQ-listed stock. Companies listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market must meet certain financial requirements and adhere to NASDAQ’s corporate governance standards.
The Company issued a press release relating to the transfer to the NASDAQ Capital Market on December 11, 2009, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.
