Item 3.01   Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On September 15, 2005, Pac-West Telecomm, Inc. (“Pac-West”) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying
Pac-West that for the 30 consecutive business days preceding the date of the letter, the bid price of Pac-West’s common stock had closed below the $1.00 per share minimum required for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4). The letter further notified Pac-West that, in accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(8)(D), Pac-West will be provided 180 calendar days, or until March 14, 2006, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. Compliance may be achieved if the bid price per share of Pac-West’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or greater for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days prior to March 14, 2006. However, Nasdaq has the discretion to require a period in excess of 10 business days before determining that the ability to maintain long-term compliance has been demonstrated.
The letter from Nasdaq further stated that, if compliance with the minimum bid price requirement cannot be demonstrated by March 14, 2006, but Pac-West otherwise meets the applicable initial listing requirements, Pac-West may qualify for an additional 180 day compliance period. If Pac-West is not eligible for an additional compliance period, Nasdaq will provide written notice to Pac-West that its common stock will be delisted. In the event of such notification, Pac-West would have an opportunity to appeal Nasdaq’s determination to Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Panel.
Pac-West intends to monitor the bid price between now and March 14, 2006, and consider available options if its common stock does not trade at a level that is likely to result in Pac-West regaining compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.
