ITEM 3.01 NOTICE OF DELISTING OR FAILURE TO SATISFY A CONTINUED LISTING
RULE OR STANDARD; TRANSFER OF LISTING.

         On November 17, 2005, Trans-Industries, Inc. (the "Company") received a
Nasdaq Staff Deficiency letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq")
indicating the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq's requirements for
continued listing because the Company's shareholders equity amount is below the
minimum requirement of $2.5 million and accordingly does not comply with
Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(2)(B) (the "Minimum Stockholders Equity Rule"). The
Company is currently considering its options. In the event that the Company is
unable to deliver a plan acceptable to Nasdaq, the Company expects to receive
notification that its securities will be delisted. At that time, the Company may
appeal the Staff's decision to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel.
