That article was a bit misleading. The author failed to mention FTNW was moving to the baby brother of the NYSE, the NYSE American. The American stock exchange was bought by the NYSE some years ago (2008) changed its name to NYSE MKT and currently is known as NYSE American. The link below sheds a little more light on the difference between the NYSE and the NYSE MKT.

"Though it only handles less than half a percent of U.S. stock trading on most days, NYSE MKT has a long and colorful history. Once known as the American Stock Exchange, and before that, the New York Curb Exchange, it was formed by traders excluded from the NYSE. They initially did business on the sidewalks of downtown Manhattan, trading mining companies during the California gold rush, only moving indoors in 1921."
