SANTA CLARA, Calif., Sept. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Extreme Networks, Inc. announced that on September 22, 2006 it received a Nasdaq Staff Determination stating that the Company is not in compliance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) because it did not timely file its report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 2, 2006 and, therefore, that its common stock is subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Global Market.
The Company will request a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel to review the Staff Determination. Delisting will be stayed pending a decision by the hearing panel. There can be no assurance that the panel will grant the Company's request for continued listing.
As previously announced, Extreme Networks, Inc. has delayed filing its Form 10-K report pending the completion of a review of its stock option practices being conducted by a special committee of its Board of Directors. The Company plans to file its Form 10-K report as soon as practicable following the conclusion of the review.
