Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On August 14, 2008, WPT Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with the minimum stock listing price requirements of Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(5) as a result of the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock being below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days. The Nasdaq Marketplace Rules provide the Company with 180 calendar days to regain compliance, which will require the bid price of the Company’s common stock to remain above $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days.

 

On October 16, 2008, Nasdaq announced the suspension of the enforcement of the rule requiring a minimum $1.00 closing bid price. On December 19, 2008 and March 23, 2009, Nasdaq extended the term of the suspension and the suspension will now be in effect through July 19, 2009. This additional suspension of the enforcement of the $1.00 closing bid price rule provides the Company with an extension until November 16, 2009 to regain compliance with the minimum stock listing requirements of Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(5).
