NASDAQ has requested the Company to provide, on or before October 18, 2005, a specific plan and timetable to achieve compliance with Marketplace Rule 4350(c)(1).
Doug Otto, Chairman of the Board, stated 'They have initiated a search for a new independent Director and they intend to be fully compliant as soon as possible.'
