Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On June 15, 2007, Senesco Technologies, Inc. (the Company) received a notice from the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) providing notification that, the Company is not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii) of the AMEX Company Guide (the Rule) with shareholders equity of less than $4,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years.
The notice is based on a review by the AMEX of Senesco Technologies, Inc. Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2007 which publicly disclosed the financial status of the Company at that time.
To maintain an AMEX listing, Senesco must submit a plan by July 16, 2007 advising AMEX of action it has taken, or will take that would bring Senesco into compliance with the continued listing standards within a maximum of 18 months from the date of notification by AMEX. We are taking steps to prepare and submit such a plan to AMEX on or before July 16, 2007.
The Listings Qualifications Department of AMEX will evaluate our plan and determine whether it reasonably demonstrates our ability to regain compliance with the continued listing standards within 18 months. If AMEX accepts our plan, we may be able to continue our listing during the plan period provided that we make progress consistent with our plan and comply with other applicable AMEX listing qualifications. If we fail to submit a satisfactory plan or fail to make progress consistent with the plan accepted by the AMEX, AMEX may initiate delisting procedures. During the plan period we will be subject to periodic review to determine whether we are making progress consistent with the plan.
