Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard
On September 25, 2007, The SCO Group, Inc. (the Company) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock
Market (Nasdaq) indicating that the bid price of its common stock for the last 30 consecutive
business days had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share required for continued listing under
Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4). Pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(8)(D), the Company
has been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until March 24, 2008, to regain
compliance. The 180 day period relates exclusively to the bid price deficiency. The Company may be
delisted during the 180 day period for failure to maintain compliance with any other listing
requirements for which it is currently on notice or which occurs during this period. The letter
states the Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance
with Rule 4310(c)(4) if at any time before March 24, 2008 the bid price of the Companys common
stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, although the
letter also states that the Nasdaq staff has the discretion to require compliance for a period in
excess of 10 consecutive business days, but generally no more than 20 consecutive business days,
under certain circumstances.
If the Company cannot demonstrate compliance with Rule 4310(c)(4) by March 24, 2008, the
Nasdaq staff will determine whether the Company meets The Nasdaq Capital Market initial listing
criteria set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c), except for the bid price requirement. If the
Company meets the initial listing criteria, the Nasdaq staff will notify the Company that it has
been granted an additional 180 calendar day compliance period. If the Company is not eligible for
an additional compliance period, the Nasdaq staff will provide written notice that the Companys
securities will be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal the Nasdaq staffs determination
to delist its securities to a Listing Qualifications Panel.
The Company issued a press release on September 28, 2007 in connection with the notification,
a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Hearing
As the Company previously reported, on September 18, 2007, the Company received a Nasdaq Staff
Determination letter (the Determination) indicating that, as a result of the Companys having
filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, the Companys securities would
be delisted from The Nasdaq Stock Market and that trading in the Companys common stock would be
suspended unless the Company filed an appeal of the Determination. The Company requested a hearing
before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel to review the Determination. The hearing date has
been set for November 8, 2007. There can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Companys
request for continued listing.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of
Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On September 25, 2007, Bert B. Young, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, informed the Board of
Directors of the Company that he will resign from his position as Chief Financial
Officer of the Company, effective as of October 9, 2007. He will continue to assist the Company as
a consultant for an anticipated period of approximately six months.
