GoAmerica Receives Temporary Exception to Nasdaq's $1 Minimum Bid Price Listing Requirement and Sets Date for Its Annual Meeting of Stockholders HACKENSACK, N.J., Oct. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- GoAmerica, Inc. , a developer and distributor of wireless data technology, today announced that it recently received a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel Determination granting GoAmerica a temporary exception to the $1.00 minimum closing bid price per share requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market (as required by Nasdaq's Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4)) through at least December 1, 2003. As previously announced, GoAmerica had appealed a late August 2003 Nasdaq Staff Determination that the Company's common stock be delisted for failure to satisfy the minimum bid price. The Nasdaq Listings Qualifications Panel provided such additional time for compliance by GoAmerica with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4) because GoAmerica is in compliance with all other Nasdaq listing requirements, and to allow for further developments in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rule-making process with respect to Nasdaq's proposal to change its minimum bid price rules. Nasdaq recently proposed certain modifications to its minimum bid price requirements, which modifications if adopted would provide GoAmerica with additional time to comply with the minimum bid price requirement. GoAmerica also announced today that its annual stockholders meeting will be held on December 19, 2003 at a time and location to be determined. The close of business on November 7, 2003 has been established by GoAmerica as the record date for determination of GoAmerica stockholders entitled to receive notice of and vote at the GoAmerica annual stockholders meeting. A proxy statement, together with GoAmerica's Annual Report on Form 10-K, will be mailed to stockholders of record prior to the annual meeting.
