Item 8.01 Other Events.

FINRA
The Company has received notification from FINRA that, by reason of its failure to file its report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, due May 16, 2011, the Company, according to FINRA, is not current in its reporting obligations, and “pursuant to NASD Rule 6530, unless the delinquent filing is received and time stamped by the Commission’s EDGAR system by 5:30 p.m. EST on 6/17/2011, the securities of the Company will not be eligible for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) and, therefore, will be removed.”
 
As disclosed in the Company’s current report on Form 8-K, filed May 16, 2011, during the pendency of the Company’s Chapter 11 case, the Company intends to file the monthly operating reports otherwise required under the Bankruptcy Code in place of the periodic reports on Form 10-Q and Form 10-K required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (consistent with SEC Release No. 34-9660. and SEC Staff Legal Bulletin No. 2).
 
Furthermore, as disclosed in the Company’s current report on Form 8-K, filed May 3, 2011, it is contemplated that all existing equity in the Company, including common stock, options and warrants, will be cancelled and will receive no property or other consideration under the plan of reorganization to be proposed by the Company.  Accordingly, the Company does not intend to file the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.

A copy of the notification from FINRA is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2.
