On April 4, 2012, China North East Petroleum Holdings Limited (the “Company”) received a letter from NYSE Amex LLC (“NYSE”) stating that the NYSE was initiating delisting proceedings against the Company.
NYSE alleges that the Company is not in compliance with the following sections of the NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide: (i) Section 120 (Certain Relationships and Transactions); (ii) Section 1003(f)(iii) (Operations Contrary to Public Interest); (iii) Section 127 (Use of Discretionary Authority); (iv) Section 132(e) (Additional Information); (v) Section 1003(d) (Failure to Comply with Listing Agreements and/or SEC Requirements); and (vi) Sections 134 (Filing Requirements) and 1101 (General).
In general, the NYSE allegations primarily relate to issues concerning documentation and disclosures for transactions between the Company and related parties, including those identified in the John Lees & Associates report to the Company, dated July 2010 and the failure of the Company to file its Form 10-K for 2011 on time.
The Company intends to appeal the attempted delisting before the Listing Qualifications Panel of the NYSE in accordance with Sections 1203 and 1009(d) of the Company Guide.
The Company’s press release dated April 11, 2012 with respect to the notification from the NYSE is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
