The Company previously had received a notice from the staff of Nasdaq that the staff was recommending the delisting of the Company’s common stock.

On December 21, 2016, the Company received a letter from the Hearing Panel stating that the Company securities will be suspended from trading effective at the opening of business on December 23, 2016.
