PR Newswire (US)
NEW YORK, Feb. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- GSC Acquisition Company
(NYSE Alternext US: GGA) (the "Company") today announced it has
received notice from the staff of the NYSE Alternext US LLC
(formerly the American Stock Exchange) (the "Exchange") that the
Company is not in compliance with Section 704 of the Company Guide
in that it did not hold an annual meeting of its stockholders
during 2008. The Company has been afforded the opportunity to
submit a plan of compliance to the Exchange by March 10, 2009 that
demonstrates the Company's ability to regain compliance with
Section 704 of the Company Guide by August 11, 2009. The Company
currently intends to submit such a plan. If the Exchange accepts
the plan, then the Company may be able to continue its listing
during the period up to August 11, 2009, during which time the
Company will be subject to periodic review to determine whether it
is making progress consistent with the plan it submitted. If the
Company fails to submit a plan acceptable to the Exchange, or even
if accepted, if the Company is not in compliance with the continued
listing standards by August 11, 2009, or the Company does not make
progress consistent with the plan during such period, then the
Exchange would be expected to initiate delisting proceedings. The
Company's common stock continues to trade on Exchange. The Exchange
has advised the Company that the Exchange is utilizing the
financial status indicator fields in the Consolidated Tape
Association's Consolidated Tape System and Consolidated Quote
Systems Low Speed and High Speed Tapes to identify companies that
are in noncompliance with the Exchange's continued listing
standards. Accordingly, the Company will become subject to the
trading symbol extension ".BC" to denote such noncompliance.
