MedAvant Announces Receipt of NASDAQ Notice of Delisting


ATLANTA, July 29, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- MedAvant Healthcare Solutions (the Company) (Nasdaq:PILL) today announced that on July 23, 2008 it received a Staff Determination Letter (the "Letter") from The Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") notifying the Company that the staff of Nasdaq's Listing Qualifications Department determined, using its discretionary authority under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4300 and IM-4300, that the Company's common stock would be delisted from Nasdaq. The Letter further stated that Nasdaq would suspend trading in the Company's common stock at the opening of trading on August 1, 2008 and then file a Form 25-NSE with the Securities and Exchange Commission to deregister the Company's common stock, unless the Company appeals Nasdaq's delisting determination. Nasdaq's determination to delist the common stock was based on the Company's filing for voluntary reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on July 23, 2008, the associated public interest concerns raised by the filing of the Chapter 11 case, concerns regarding the residual equity interests of existing holders of the Company's common stock, and the Company's ability to sustain compliance with all of Nasdaq's continued listing requirements.

The Letter also indicated that, in accordance with Marketplace Rule 4805(a), the Company would have seven (7) calendar days, or until July 30, 2008, to appeal the delisting from Nasdaq to a Listing Qualifications Panel. At this time, the Company does not plan to appeal the delisting from Nasdaq, but does intend to request that various of its current market makers continue to make markets in the Company's common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board and/or the Pink Sheets, as the case may be. In connection with the Company's plan to list its common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board and/or the Pink Sheets, the Company will request that one of its current market makers apply for a new ticker symbol for the Company.
