In accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and NASDAQ, ISSI has provided written notice to NASDAQ of its intent to delist. ISSI intends to file a Form 25 with the SEC on or after November 30, 2015, to effect the delisting. By operation of law, the delisting will be effective ten days after the filing of the Form 25. ISSI reserves the right to delay the filing of the Form 25 or subsequently withdraw or amend any previously filed Form 25. If the acquisition is completed prior to the effective date of the delisting, trading of ISSI common stock on NASDAQ will be suspended at that time. Provided that the requirements for deregistration are met, in due course, ISSI intends to file a Form 15 with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), requesting the deregistration of ISSI's common stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and the suspension of ISSI's reporting obligations under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act. As of the date of the filing of the Form 15, the obligation of ISSI to file reports under the Exchange Act, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, will be immediately suspended. Other filing requirements will terminate upon the effectiveness of the deregistration under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, which is expected to occur 90 days after the filing of the Form 15.
