I saw the capital market listing under the equity standard as the easiest route for POET in the past, someone correct me if there is an easier path. That's has a $3 minimum.  To get the $2 standard you need to have that share price for 90 days, among other things.  Doesn't sound like they are after that. 

good luck,
