Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; T
As previously reported, Banks.com, Inc. ("Banks.com" or the "Company") received
notice from NYSE Amex LLC ("NYSE Amex" or the "Exchange"), by letter dated
June 20, 2011, indicating that the Company was not in compliance with
Section 1003(f)(v) of the Exchange's Company Guide (the "Company Guide") in that
the Company's securities had been selling at a low price per share for a
substantial period of time. The Company's continued listing was predicated on it
effecting a reverse stock split of its common stock within a reasonable amount
of time, which Exchange staff ("Staff") had determined to be no later than
November 18, 2011. This deadline for compliance reflected a truncation under
Section 1009(h) of the Company Guide, which provides that Staff may truncate the
continued listing evaluation and follow-up procedures if a company, within 12
months of the end of a plan period, is again determined to be below continued
listing standards. By letter dated October 6, 2010, Banks.com was determined by
the Exchange to have resolved a September 16, 2009 continued listing deficiency
under Section 1003(f)(v) of the Company Guide.
Also previously reported by the Company, on November 22, 2011, the Company received notice from the Exchange indicating that the Company no longer complied with the Exchange's continued listing standards due to the low selling price of its common stock, as set forth in Section 1003(f)(v) of the Company Guide and that its securities were, therefore, subject to being delisted from the Exchange.
The Company requested an appeal hearing before a Listing Qualifications Panel (the "Panel") and the hearing was held on January 19, 2012. On January 23, 2012, the Company was notified by the Exchange that the Panel had affirmed the Staff's determination to delist the common stock of the Company, and that trading in its common stock would be suspended on NYSE Amex, with formal delisting to follow. The Company is entitled to request that the full Committee on Securities review the decision of the Panel, although a request for review does not operate as a stay of the Panel's decision. The Company has not yet decided whether it will request a review of the Panel's decision.
The Company is transitioning trading in its common stock to the OTCQB Marketplace, and expects that its common stock will trade under the "BNNX" symbol on the computerized OTCQB system beginning January 30, 2012. Operated by OTC Markets Group Inc., the OTCQB is a market tier for OTC traded companies that are registered and reporting with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
