Item 1.03  Bankruptcy or Receivership

 

On April 10, 2008, Frontier Airlines Holdings, Inc. (“Frontier”) and its subsidiaries Frontier Airlines, Inc. and Lynx Aviation, Inc. (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Court”) (Case Nos. 08-11298, 08-11297 and 08-11299, respectively). The Debtors will continue to operate their business as “debtors-in possession” under the jurisdiction of the Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Court.

 

Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On April 11, 2008, Frontier received a Staff Determination Letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, as a result of Frontier’s filing for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, Nasdaq has determined that Frontier’s securities will be delisted from Nasdaq in accordance with the discretionary authority granted to Nasdaq under Marketplace Rules 4300, 4450(f) and IM-4300.

 

Frontier does not intend to appeal this determination, and, as a result, trading of Frontier’s common stock will be suspended at the opening of business on April 22, 2008, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to remove Frontier’s securities from listing and registration on Nasdaq.

 

On April 15, 2008, Frontier issued a press release announcing the matters discussed above. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

On April 10, 2008, Frontier issued a press release announcing that it and its subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2.
