Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Tran
On December 22, 2008, NetSuite Inc. (the "Company") notified the New York Stock
Exchange (the "NYSE") that due to the unexpected death on September 28, 2008 of
Keith Grinstein, a member of the Company's Board of Directors and its Audit
Committee, the Company would fail to satisfy Section 303A.07(a) ("Section
303A.07(a)") of the NYSE Listed Company Manual (the "Listed Company Manual")
effective December 22, 2008. Mr. Grinstein's death reduced the number of
directors serving on the Company's Audit Committee to two members.
Section 303A.07(a) requires each NYSE-listed company to have a minimum of three
members on its audit committee. However, the NYSE allows a transition period of
one year from the listing of an issuer's securities in connection with its
initial public offering to comply with this rule (the "One Year Transition
Period"). The Company was listed on the NYSE in connection with its initial
public offering on December 20, 2007 and fell out of compliance with
Section 303A.07(a) on December 22, 2008.
In addition to the One Year Transition Period, the NYSE Listing Standards provide that if a listed company's noncompliance with the NYSE's corporate governance standards results from the death or illness of a director, the issuer will not be added to the NYSE's list of issuers that are noncompliant with the NYSE's quantitative and corporate governance listing standards (the "NYSE Noncompliance List") until six months after the event rendering the company noncompliant. Therefore, the Company has until March 30, 2009 to appoint a third member to its Audit Committee before it will be placed on the NYSE Noncompliance List. The Company is in the process of identifying and recruiting a new Audit Committee member in order to comply with NYSE requirements.
