Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On August 18, 2005, Kana Software, Inc. (“KANA”) received an additional NASDAQ Staff Determination letter indicating that KANA has failed to comply with the NASDAQ filing requirements under NASDAQ’s Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) with respect to KANA’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, which KANA did not file on or before the date prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”) considered KANA’s failure to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 when rendering the determination regarding KANA’s continued listing on The NASDAQ National Market.
As previously reported in KANA’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 25, 2005, the Panel granted KANA’s request for the continued listing of KANA’s common stock on The NASDAQ National Market provided that KANA files its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 on or before August 26, 2005 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005 on or before September 21, 2005.
As soon as KANA files its Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission, KANA will continue its preparation of its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
On August 22, 2005, KANA issued a press release, attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.01, reporting that it had received an additional NASDAQ Staff Determination letter as described in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
