FOREWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in this Currant Report on Form 8-K constitute
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Federal Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. While forward-looking
statements sometimes are presented with numerical specificity, they are
based on various assumptions made by management regarding future events
over which we have little or no control. Forward-looking statements
may be identified by words including "anticipate," "believe,"
"estimate," "expect" and similar expressions. We caution readers that
forward-looking statements, including without limitation, those
relating to future business prospects, revenues, working capital,
liquidity, and income, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties
that would cause actual results to differ materially from those
indicated in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause
actual results to differ from forward-looking statements include the
concentration of our revenues, risks involved in contracting with our
customers, including difficulties to accurately estimate costs when
bidding on a contract and the occurrence of start-up costs prior to
receiving revenues and contract with fixed price provisions, government
contracting risks, potential conflicts of interest, difficulties we may
have in attracting and retaining management, professional and
administrative staff, fluctuation in quarterly results, risks related
to acquisitions and acquisition strategy, continued favorable banking
relationships, the availability of capital to finance operations and
ability to make payments on outstanding indebtedness, weakened economic
conditions, acts of terrorism, risks related to competition and our
ability to continue to perform efficiently on contracts, and other
risks and factors identified from time to time in the reports we file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including our
Annual Report on Form 10-K. Should one or more of these risks or
uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove
incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated,
estimated or projected.
Forward-looking statements are intended to apply only at the time
they are made. Moreover, whether or not stated in connection with a
forward-looking statement, the Company undertakes no obligation to
correct or update a forward-looking statement should we later become
aware that it is not likely to be achieved. If the Company were to
update or correct a forward-looking statement, you should not conclude
that the Company will make additional updates or correction thereafter.
Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued
Listing Rule or Standard
On May 15, 2008, the American Stock Exchange granted the Company
an extension until September 14, 2009 to regain compliance with the
continued listing standards. As previously disclosed the Company had
received notice from the Amex staff indicating that the Company was
below certain of the Exchange's continuing listing standards (losses in
three out of four of it's most recent fiscal years with shareholders
equity below $4 Million) of the Amex Company Guide. The Company was
afforded the opportunity to submit a plan of compliance to the Exchange
and on April 14, 2008, presented its plan to the Exchange. On May 15,
2008, the Exchange notified the Company that it had accepted the
Company's plan of compliance and granted the Company an extension until
September 14, 2009 to regain compliance with the continued listing
standards. The Company will be subject to periodic review by the
Exchange Staff during the extension period. Failure to make progress
consistent with the plan or failure to regain compliance with the
continued listing standards by the end of the extension period could
result in the Company being delisted from the American Stock Exchange.
