Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
 
On August 16, 2011, Ener1, Inc. (the “Company”) received a written notice from The NASDAQ Stock Market (the “NASDAQ Notice”) stating that the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing requirements of NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) because the Company did not timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) requires the Company to timely file all required periodic reports and other documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
 
The NASDAQ Notice requires the Company to submit a plan to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements by October 17, 2011. If such a plan is accepted by NASDAQ, it can grant the Company up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Form 10-Q, or until February 6, 2012, to regain compliance.
 
The Company intends to file its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 with the SEC to regain compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1).  In addition to filing the Form 10-Q, the Company intends to submit a plan to regain compliance to NASDAQ no later than October 17, 2011. No assurance can be given that NASDAQ will accept the Company’s compliance plan or grant an exception for the full 180-day period contemplated by the NASDAQ Listing Rules. Under the NASDAQ rules, the Company’s common stock will continue to be listed on NASDAQ until October 17, 2011, and for any exception period that may be granted to the Company by NASDAQ.  However, until the Company regains compliance, quotation information for the Company’s common stock will include an indicator of the Company’s non-compliance and the Company will be included in a list of non-compliant companies on the NASDAQ website.
 
The Company issued a press release on August 19, 2011, disclosing its receipt of the NASDAQ Notice. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
 
This Current Report on Form 8-K (including information included or incorporated by reference herein) may contain, among other things, certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, without limitation, statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “projects,” “outlook,” or similar expressions. These statements are based upon the current belief and expectations of the Company’s management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that are subject to change based on various factors (many of which are beyond the Company’s control).
