Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
Hampton Roads Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”), the holding company for Bank of Hampton Roads and Shore Bank, today announced that it was back in compliance with the listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Select Market (“NASDAQ”) related to the price of its common stock. A copy of the press release making such announcement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information contained in this item, including that which is incorporated by reference, is being furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Such information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section. The information shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
Previously, on November 17, 2010, the Company received a letter (“Non-Compliance Letter”) from NASDAQ notifying the Company that it no longer met NASDAQ’s continued listing requirement under Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the “Bid Price Rule”), and providing the Company with a cure period to regain such compliance. As indicated above, today, the Company announced that it has received written notification from NASDAQ indicating that the Company has regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule. This subsequent notification confirmed that the Company’s common stock has maintained a minimum bid price of at least $1.00 per share for at least 10 consecutive business days, which is necessary to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule, and that the matter raised in the Non-Compliance Letter is now closed.
Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
