Notice
of delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard:
Transfer of Listing.
On
September 18, 2007, Manhattan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. received notice from the
staff of the American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”) indicating that the that the
company is not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii) of the AMEX Company Guide
with stockholder’s equity of less than $4,000,000 and losses from continuing
operations and/or net losses in three out its four most recent fiscal years,
and
Section 1003(a)(iii) of the AMEX Company Guide with stockholder’s equity of less
than $6,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in
its
five most recent fiscal years. This is consistent with the company’s previous
disclosure regarding its failure to meet the same continued listing standards
of
AMEX, which is summarized below.
In
order
for the company to maintain its AMEX listing, the company must submit a plan
by
October 18, 2007, advising AMEX of the actions it has taken, or will take,
that
will bring it into compliance with all the continued listing standards by April
16, 2008. If AMEX accepts the company’s plan, the company may be able to
continue its listing for the period ending April 16, 2008, during which time
the
company will be subject to periodic review to determine if it is making progress
consistent with the plan. If the company does not regain compliance with all
of
AMEX’s continued listing standards by April 16, 2008, or if the company does not
make sufficient progress consistent with its plan, then AMEX may initiate
delisting proceedings. The company has already informed AMEX that it intends
to
submit such a plan by October 18, 2007.
As
previously disclosed, on January 8, 2007, the company first received notice
from
AMEX that it was not in compliance with AMEX’s continued listing standards. The
company submitted a plan advising AMEX of the actions it had taken and planned
to take to bring it into compliance with continued listing standards by April
16, 2008. On March 23, 2007 AMEX accepted the plan.
On
May
31, 2007, AMEX notified the company that it had regained compliance with the
continued listing standards but that the plan period would remain open until
the
company demonstrated compliance for two consecutive quarters. As the company
did
not demonstrate compliance with the continued listing standards for two
consecutive quarters, AMEX notified the company that the plan period of April
16, 2008 remains in effect.
On
September 21, 2007, the company issued a press release disclosing the receipt
of
the AMEX notice, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit
99.1.
