Item 8.01        Other Events.

 

On October 5, 2010, the Board of Directors of Next, Inc. (the "Company") approved the voluntary suspension of its duty to file periodic and other reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and the voluntary deregistration of its common stock under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").  These actions will result in the Company no longer being a reporting issuer to the SEC. In accordance with the resolutions adopted by its Board of Directors, the Company will file a Certification and Notice of Termination of Registration under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Suspension of Duty to File Reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on Form 15 ("Form 15") with the SEC.  The Company is eligible to suspend its reporting obligations and deregister its common stock because it has fewer than 300 stockholders of record.

The Company is taking this action voluntarily and not based on its receipt of any notice indicating that the Company failed to satisfy any Exchange Act rule or applicable listing standard nor because it was aware of any material noncompliance with any such rule or standard.

Upon the filing of Form 15, the Company's obligation to file periodic and current reports with the SEC, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K, will be immediately suspended.  The deregistration itself is expected to be made effective by the SEC within 90 days of the filing of the Form 15. The Company expects that after the deregistration of its common stock, the shares of the Company's common stock will no longer be quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board, but its common stock is expected to continue to be quoted on Pink Sheets, LLC ("Pink Sheets"), an electronic network through which participating broker-dealers can make markets, and enter orders to buy and sell shares of companies.  The Company, however, can provide no assurance that any broker will continue to make a market in the Company's shares, or that the Company's shares will continue to be quoted on Pink Sheets or on any other forum.

The Company is in its final stage of closing permanently.  As stated in previously filed 8-K's, after the sale of its remaining assets and the payment of all liabilities, costs and expenses, and upon complying all corporate and regulatory requirements, the Company intends to distribute any remaining cash to its stockholders.
