In accordance with the notice, we will have until August 22, 2016, or 180 calendar days from the date of the notice, to regain compliance with the exchange&#8217;s continued listing requirements regarding the minimum closing bid price rule (Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2)). </font></p>

To qualify, we will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of our intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, if it appears to the NASDAQ Staff that we will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if we are otherwise not eligible, the NASDAQ Staff would provide notice that our shares will be subject to delisting. At that time, we would also be permitted to appeal the delisting determination to a hearing panel.</p>

These statements include statements about our plans, strategies, financial performance, prospects or future events and involve known and unknown risks that are difficult to predict. In particular, this press release contains forward-looking statements about the prospects of our regaining compliance with the continued listing standards of NASDAQ.&nbsp;&nbsp;We cannot assure you that we will be able to do so and cannot predict whether, if that occurs, it will have a negative impact on our share price, business or reputation.&nbsp;&nbsp;As a result, our actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as "may," "could," "expect," "intend," "plan," "seek," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "likely," "will," "would" and variations of these terms and similar expressions, or the negative of these terms or similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by us and our management team, are inherently uncertain. A more complete description of these risks and uncertainties can be found in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. We caution you not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which are made as of the date of this press release. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any of these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, new information or future events, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable laws.</p>
