OPINION

GREER, Presiding Judge.

The issue raised on appeal is whether A.R.S. § 13-702(H) as amended, Laws 1984, is to be applied retroactively to designate an open-end offense as a felony in order to trigger the repeat felony offender provisions of A.R.S. §§ 13-604.01 or 13-604. 1 We hold that the 1984 amendments to A.R.S. § 13-702(H) should not be applied retroactively. Therefore, we must set aside the plea agreement and remand the case to the superior court for reinstatement of all charges against the appellant or for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
