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

 

On July 19, 2006, Metro One Telecommunications, Inc. (“Metro One”) received a Nasdaq Staff Deficiency Letter indicating that Metro One is not in compliance with the $1.00 minimum closing bid requirement set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(5) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”), and as a result Metro One’s common stock would be delisted at the opening of business on July 28, 2006, unless Metro One requests a hearing in accordance with the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules.

 

On July 21, 2006, Metro One received a letter from the staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market informing Metro One that it had regained compliance with the continued listing requirements because the Company’s common stock has been at $1.00 or greater for at least 10 consecutive business days. According to the Nasdaq staff letter, this matter is now closed.

 

On July 24, 2006, Metro One issued a press release announcing that it had received the Nasdaq staff letters. A copy of such press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
