American Water Star Receives Notice of Non-Compliance from AMEX
Business Wire, Nov 29, 2005
LAS VEGAS -- American Water Star Inc. (AMEX: AMW) today announced that it has received notice from AMEX that it does not meet certain of the Exchange's continued listing standards as set forth in Part 10 of the AMEX's Company Guide, specifically Section 1003(a)(iv), because it appears that AMW's financial condition is such that, in the opinion of the Exchange, it is questionable as to whether AMW will be able to continue operations and/or meet its obligations as they mature. However, AMW's listing is being continued pursuant to an extension granted upon the acceptance of its plan (rectifying its deficiency). AMW plans to submit a plan to AMEX on or before Dec. 23, 2005, advising the Exchange of action it has taken, or will take, that would bring it into compliance by Feb. 23, 2006.
Additionally, AMW has triggered another deficiency under AMEX's Company Guide Sections 134 and 1101 due to AMW not filing its quarterly report on Form 10-QSB for the period ended Sept. 30, 2005. AMEX has notified AMW about this deficiency and AMW plans to file its Form 10-QSB on or before Dec. 9, 2005 or submit a plan to AMEX detailing AMW's plans to rectify this deficiency by Jan. 5, 2005.
