Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

(a) On May 22, 2008, the Registrant received written notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market that the Registrant was not in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) requiring the Registrant to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended February 2, 2008. As a consequence the Registrant's securities may be subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market. In addition, pursuant to Marketplace Rule 4804(b), the Registrant is required to make a public announcement with respect to such written notice received from the Nasdaq Stock Market.

The Registrant has submitted a hearing request before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel with respect to the continued listing of its securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market which automatically stays the suspension of trading and delisting of the Registrant’s securities pending the issuance of the Panel’s decision. The Company expects to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K in the near future, at which time the Company believes it will again be in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14).
