Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
 
On June 14, 2007, we received a NASDAQ Staff Determination letter from the NASDAQ Stock Market. The letter states that because the Company has not filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission its most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is for the quarter ended May 5, 2007, NASDAQ, pursuant to Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14), has an additional basis for delisting the Company's securities from The NASDAQ Stock Market.
 
The Company anticipated receipt of this notice since, as previously announced, it received previous determination letters indicating that the Company was not in compliance with the filing requirements for continued listing due to the Company's inability to file its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the second quarter ended July 29, 2006 and the third quarter ended October 28, 2006 and its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2007. Currently, Nasdaq’s Listing and Hearing Review Council is reviewing the Company’s continued listing because of the Company’s failure to file such reports. The Company has made a submission to the Council in support of its continued listing while it prepares and submits the missing reports, including, as previously announced, a restatement of its financial statements, which the Company expect to complete as soon as practicable. In accordance with Marketplace Rule 4804(c), the Company may make an additional submission in regard to this additional deficiency for consideration as part of the pending review. There is no assurance that the Council will grant the Company's request for continued listing.
 
On June 20, 2007 we issued a press release announcing receipt of the NASDAQ Staff Determination letter.
