CuraGen Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the Company), hereby amends its Current Report
on Form 8-K filed September 26, 2008 (the Original Form 8-K) to provide an update with respect to the Companys compliance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(5) (the Rule). The Original Form 8-K was filed to
report that the Company had received written notification (the Original Notice) from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (NASDAQ) advising the Company that the bid price of the Companys common stock (the Common
Stock) for the previous 30 consecutive trading days had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share (the Minimum Bid Price) required for continued listing on the NASDAQ Global Market pursuant to the Rule.
Item 3.01.
|
Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
|
As previously disclosed in the Original Form 8-K, on September 23, 2008, the Company received the Original Notice advising the Company that the bid
price of the Common Stock for the previous 30 consecutive trading days had closed below the Minimum Bid Price required for continued listing on the NASDAQ Global Market pursuant to the Rule. Pursuant to NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4450(e) (2), the
Company was provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until March 23, 2009, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price requirement.
As previously disclosed in an Amendment No. 1 to Form 8-K filed October 27, 2008, the Company received a letter from NASDAQ on October 22, 2008 informing the Company that NASDAQ had temporarily
suspended enforcement of the Minimum Bid Price requirement due to conditions in U.S. and world financial markets, with enforcement of the requirement scheduled to resume on January 20, 2009. As previously disclosed in an Amendment No. 2 to
Form 8-K filed December 30, 2008, the Company received an additional letter from NASDAQ on December 23, 2008 indicating that NASDAQ had extended the suspension of the Minimum Bid Price requirement, with enforcement scheduled to resume on
April 20, 2009.
On March 24, 2009, the Company received a further letter from NASDAQ stating that NASDAQ has further extended
the suspension of the Minimum Bid Price requirement and that the enforcement of this requirement is now scheduled to resume on July 20, 2009. This letter further stated that prior to the resumption of enforcement, NASDAQ will send an additional
letter to inform the Company of the number of calendar days remaining in the Companys compliance period and the specific date by which the Company needs to regain compliance. The letter the Company received on October 22, 2008 stated that
the Company has 158 calendar days remaining in its compliance period. With the enforcement of the rules scheduled to resume on July 20, 2009 and assuming a 158 calendar day compliance period, the Company would have until December 25, 2009
to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price requirement.
The Company can regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price requirement,
either during the suspension period or during the compliance period resuming after the suspension period, by achieving a $1.00 closing bid price for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
