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

On August 18, 2010, Biolase Technology, Inc. (the "Company") received a staff deficiency letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market indicating that based on the Company’s stockholders’ equity as reported in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2010, the Company does not comply with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement of $2.5 million for continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market as set forth in NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). As of June 30, 2010, the Company’s stockholders’ equity was approximately negative $1.3 million.

The Company is permitted to submit a detailed plan of compliance by October 4, 2010, advising NASDAQ of the action the Company has taken, or plans to take, that would bring it into compliance with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). Alternatively, the Company could demonstrate compliance if it satisfied the market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations listing requirements, which stand as alternatives to the minimum stockholders’ equity listing requirement.

If NASDAQ does not accept the Company’s plan of compliance, NASDAQ may then initiate delisting proceedings from The NASDAQ Capital Market, at which time the Company may appeal NASDAQ’s determination to a Listing Qualifications Panel. The Company is in the process of preparing a plan of compliance.

A copy of the press release announcing the NASDAQ deficiency letter is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated into this Item 3.01 by reference.
