Item 3.01: Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard
As previously reported, on September 15, 2009, Vaughan Foods, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice from the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Department that its common stock has failed to maintain a minimum bid price of US $1.00 per share over a period of 30 consecutive trading days, as required by NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided with a grace period of 180 calendar days, or until March 15, 2010, to regain compliance with this requirement. To regain compliance, the Company’s common stock must have achieved a closing bid price of at least US $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive trading days.
The Company received a notice on March 16, 2010, that it had not regained compliance with the Rule and is not eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period given that it does not meet the the Nasdaq Capital Market initial listing standard set forth in Listing Rule 5505. Accordingly, its securities will be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market on March 24, 2010.
