press release announcing first quarter 2017 financial results and
a company update. A copy of the press release is attached as
Exhibit 99.1 to this current report and is incorporated herein by

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a
Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On May 11, 2017, the Company received a letter from NASDAQ that
the Company was not in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule
5550(a)(2) bid price, because the Company’s common stock failed
to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share for 30
consecutive business days. The Company has until November 7, 2017
to regain compliance. In the event the Company does not regain
compliance by then, the Company may be eligible for additional
time if at that time it meets the continued listing requirement
for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial
listing standards, with the exception of the bid price
requirement, and provides written notice to NASDAQ of its
intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance
period, including by effecting a reverse stock split, if
necessary. The letter also states that the NASDAQ staff will
provide written notification that the Company has regained
compliance if the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes
at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive
business days.

The NASDAQ notice has no immediate effect on the listing or
trading of the Companys common stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market.
The Company intends to actively monitor the bid price for its
common stock between now and November 7, 2017, and will consider
available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance
