Form 8-K for REPROS THERAPEUTICS INC.

16-Aug-2010

Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or St


Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On August 13, 2010, Repros Therapeutics Inc. (the "Company") received a letter from the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "Panel") stating that it has determined to grant the Company until October 31, 2010 to meet the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

As previously announced, the Company has not been in compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requiring the Company to maintain a minimum $1.00 bid price per share for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Panel's determination to grant the Company's request for an extension to regain compliance follows the Company's hearing before the Panel on July 22, 2010. If the Company cannot demonstrate compliance with all the requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, including the requirement to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share, by October 31, 2010, its shares of common stock will be subject to immediate delisting.

At the Company's annual stockholders' meeting held on May 17, 2010, the stockholders approved a proposal to grant the Company's board of directors the authority to effect a reverse split of its common stock within one year of such annual meeting on a basis not to exceed one share of common stock for up to five shares of common stock outstanding, if necessary, in the sole discretion of the Company's board of directors, for purposes of maintaining its listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company intends to actively monitor the minimum bid price of its stock between now and such date, and will consider available options (including effecting a reverse split) to regain compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing requirements.

A copy of the press release announcing the Company's receipt of the determination from the Panel is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
