Jaguar also announced today that the New York Stock Exchange has notified the Company that the closing pricing of its common shares on the NYSE over the past 30 days was less than $1.00.  The NYSE's continued listing standards require that the average closing price of a listed company's common shares be above $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period.  As of July 31, 2012, the date of the NYSE notice, the 30 trading-day average closing price of Jaguar's common shares on the NYSE was $0.94 per share.

Under the NYSE's rules, Jaguar has a period of six months to bring its share price and 30 trading-day average share price back above $1.00.  During this period, Jaguar's common shares will continue to be listed and trade on the NYSE, subject to compliance with all other NYSE continued listing requirements.  As required by the NYSE in order to maintain its listing, Jaguar will notify the NYSE by August 14, 2012 that it intends to cure the price deficiency.
