Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
As previously reported in a Form 8-K filed on November 15, 2005, Curative Health Services, Inc. (“Curative”) received a letter on November 10, 2005 from The Nasdaq Stock Market indicating that for the 30 consecutive trading days preceding the date of that letter, Curative's common stock had not maintained the minimum aggregate market value of publicly held shares ("MVPHS") of $15 million required for continued inclusion under Marketplace Rule 4450(b)(3). The letter further notified Curative that, in accordance with Marketplace Rule 4450(e)(1), Curative would be provided 90 calendar days, or until February 8, 2006, to regain compliance with the MVPHS requirement. The letter further stated that if Curative did not regain compliance with the Marketplace Rules by February 8, 2006, Nasdaq would provide notice that Curative's common stock will be delisted from the Nasdaq National Market.
On February 9, 2006, Curative received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market indicating that, due to its continuing failure to satisfy the MVPHS requirement for continued listing, Curative’s common stock will be delisted from the Nasdaq National Market effective as of the opening of business on Tuesday February 21, 2006. Curative has determined not to appeal this decision because it does not have a reasonable expectation that it would be able to regain compliance with the requirements for listing.
