Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On October 13, 2008, the Board of Directors of ACME Communications, Inc. (the Company) unanimously voted to delist its common stock from the NASDAQ Global Market (NASDAQ) and to voluntarily terminate the registration of its common stock under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In connection therewith, the Company notified NASDAQ on October 14, 2008 of the Companys intention to file Form 25 on or about October 24, 2008. The Company anticipates that the Form 25 will become effective ten (10) days following its filing.
On or about November 3, 2008, the effective date of delisting, the Company intends to file a Form 15 with the SEC to voluntarily effect the deregistration of its common stock. The Company is eligible to deregister by filing Form 15 because it has fewer than 300 holders of record of its common stock. Upon the filing of the Form 15, the Companys obligations to file certain reports with the SEC, including Forms 10-KSB, 10-QSB and 8-K will immediately be suspended. The Company expects the deregistration to become effective ninety (90) days after filing the Form 15 with the SEC.
