ITEM 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On May 10, 2007, Dow Jones & Company, Inc. (the “Company”) notified the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that the Company had inadvertently omitted to disclose in its 2007 Proxy Statement that the Company’s Principles of Corporate Governance are available on the Company’s website, as required by the commentary to Section 303A.09 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.
The Company then received a letter from the NYSE advising the Company that such disclosure is required by corporate governance listing standard 303A.09 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual and that the Company could cure the inadvertent omission by filing a Current Report on Form 8-K containing the required disclosure.
The Company posts on its website (www.dowjones.com) its Principles of Corporate Governance as required by the commentary to Section 303A.09 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. Copies of the Company’s Principles of Corporate Governance are also available in print to any shareholder who submits a written request to the Company Secretary.
The Company does not believe that the inadvertent omission of such disclosure from its 2007 Proxy Statement is material.
