In light of the non-approval of the proposal regarding the
reverse stock split, the Company anticipates receiving a
delisting determination from the NASDAQ Stock Market on or about
November 28, 2016 for failure of the Companys closing stock price
to comply with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement set forth
in NASDAQ Marketplace Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A). The Company
anticipates that it will not appeal the delisting determination
and that the delisting of its common stock from the NASDAQ Stock
Market will take place approximately one week following the
receipt of the delisting determination from the NASDAQ Stock
Market. Following the delisting, the Company anticipates that its
common stock will trade on the OTCQX Market under the same ticker
symbol which it traded on while listed on the NASDAQ Stock
Market: MATN.
