ITEM 3.01 NOTICE OF DELISTING OR FAILURE TO SATISFY A CONTINUED LISTING RULE OR STANDARD; TRANSFER OF LISTING
On April 1, 2009, Nova Biosource Fuels, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice from NYSE Amex LLC, formerly known as the American Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), indicating that the Exchange had suspended trading of the Company’s securities and had determined to seek to remove the Company’s securities from listing on the Exchange as a result of the Company’s filing of a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and the Company’s failure to comply with certain other provisions of the Exchange’s Company Guide. The last day that the Company’s common stock traded on the Exchange was March 30, 2009. The Company does not intend to take any further action to appeal the Exchange’s decision, and therefore it is expected that the Company’s securities will be delisted after the completion of the Exchange’s application to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
