| ITEM 3.01 | Notice of Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing |
On September 6, 2012, Monarch Community Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a voluntary request with the NASDAQ Global Market (the “Global Market”) to delist its common stock from trading on the Global Market. The common stock began trading on the OTCQB on September 19, 2012.
After considering its available options to continue compliance and the costs associated with its continued listing on the Global Market, the Company’s Board of Directors determined that continued listing is not in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.
The Company’s securities will continue to trade under the symbol MCBF on the OTCQB. Investors will be able to obtain and view stock quotes for the Company’s securities on the OTCQB and on www.OTCMarkets.com and through participating broker-dealers.
