Item 3.01.

 

Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On June 2, 2011, Tennessee Commerce Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) received a communication from the Listing Qualifications Department of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company has regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), based on the Company’s filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) of its amended annual report on Form 10-K/A for the period ended December 31, 2010.  The amended annual report on Form 10-K/A contains an unqualified opinion in the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.  The Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm originally included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 18, 2011 contained a qualification for uncertainties related to a regulatory examination of the Company’s banking subsidiary by its regulators, which have since been resolved.

 

Given that the Company was able to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) before the deadline Nasdaq had established for the Company to submit a plan for regaining compliance, the Company is no longer required to submit such a plan to Nasdaq, and the June 2nd communication from Nasdaq indicates that “this matter is now closed.”

 

On June 3, 2011, the Company issued a press release announcing its receipt of the letter from the Nasdaq confirming that the Company has regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
