VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Jul 8,
2003 (CCNMatthews via COMTEX) -- NetNation Communications,
Inc. (NNCID) announced today that it has received a
Letter of Notice from Nasdaq dated July 7, 2003, stating
that the Company has demonstrated compliance with the
minimum closing bid price requirement of US$1.00 per
share for ten consecutive trading days, thus granting
the Company continued listing on the Nasdaq SmallCap
Market.
Nasdaq Listing Qualifications noted
that NetNation has regained compliance with Marketplace
Rule 4310(C)(4), under which is stipulated the US$1.00

Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel, after being notified
on January 7, 2003, that it did not meet listing requirements
for Nasdaq SmallCap at that time. In accordance with
Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(C)(8)(D), the Company was
afforded an additional 180 day grace period, through
July 3, 2003, to evidence compliance with the US$1.00
or greater closing bid price per share for a minimum
