| Item 3.01. | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing |
On April 16, 2010, Private Media Group, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter (“Letter”) from The NASDAQ Stock Market stating that because the Company failed to file its Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2009 (the “Filing”), on or before its due date, April 15, 2010, it is not in compliance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Rule”), which requires that a listed company timely file periodic financial reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as a condition to continued listing of its securities. The Letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s Common Stock.
Under the NASDAQ Listing Rules the Company has until June 15, 2010, to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Rule (the “Plan”). If the Plan is accepted by NASDAQ, it has the authority to grant an exception to the Rule for up to 180 calendar days from the Filing’s due date, or until October 12, 2010, to regain compliance with the Rule by filing any past due periodic filings with the SEC. In determining whether to accept the Plan, NASDAQ will consider such things as the likelihood that the Filing, along with any subsequent periodic filing that becomes due, can be made within the 180 day period, the Company’s past compliance history, the reasons for the late Filing, other corporate events that may occur within our review period, the Company’s overall financial condition and its public disclosures.
The Company is finalizing the Filing intends to complete its Filing within the next 10 days, and in any event prior to the expiration of the 60 period in which to submit a Plan.
A copy of the press release issued by the Company on April 22, 2010, disclosing receipt of the Letter is included in this report as Exhibit 99.1.
