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

On January 18, 2011 GFN received notice from The NASDAQ Stock Market stating that the warrants of GFN, which trade under the symbol “GFNCZ,” have not maintained a minimum of two active market makers as required for continued inclusion by Listing Rule 5455(b) and that GFN will be provided 30 calendar days, or until February 17, 2011, to regain compliance. If, at any time before February 17, 2011, the warrants have at least two active market makers for 10 consecutive trading days, GFN will have achieved compliance with Listing Rule 5455(b). GFN plans to regain compliance with the continued listing standards.

If the warrants of GFN do not regain compliance with the listing standards by February 17, 2011, the staff of The NASDAQ Stock Market may determine to delist GFN’s warrants from The NASDAQ Global Market and to suspend trading of the warrants at a future date.
