Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; T
On January 8, 2013, Radio One, Inc. (the "Company") received approval from the NASDAQ Stock Market to transfer the listing of its Class D Shares from The NASDAQ Global Market to The NASDAQ Capital Market. The transfer will be effective at the opening of business on January 10, 2013 and the Company's Class D Shares will continue to trade under the symbol "ROIAK".
As previously announced, on July 13, 2012, NASDAQ notified the Company that its listed Class D Shares no longer met the minimum $1 bid price per share requirement. In that regard, the Company was not able to regain compliance within an initial 180 day period provided to cure the deficiency. However, NASDAQ determined that the Company is eligible for an additional 180 calendar day period, or until July 8, 2013 (the "Expiration Date"), to cure the deficiency. NASDAQ's determination was based on the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on the Capital Market with the exception of the bid price requirement. NASDAQ further relied upon the Company's written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during a second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.
If at any time during the second compliance period granted by NASDAQ, the closing bid price of the Company's security is at least $1 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, the Company will regain compliance and the effecting of a reverse stock split may not be necessary. If the Company chooses to implement a reverse stock split, it must complete the split no later than ten business days prior to the Expiration Date in order to timely regain compliance. If the Company cannot demonstrate compliance by July 8, 2013 or the Company does not comply with the terms of the extension granted by NASDAQ, the Company's securities may be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal NASDAQ's determination to a Hearings Panel.
The NASDAQ Capital Market is a continuous trading market that operates in substantially the same manner as The NASDAQ Global Market. All companies, whose securities are listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market, must meet certain financial requirements and adhere to NASDAQ's corporate governance standards.
The listing transfer does not affect the Class A Shares which continue to trade on The NASDAQ Capital Market and continue to suffer a bid price deficiency.
