Item 8.01 Other Events.

On June 1, 2015, Harvest Natural Resources, Inc. (the "Company") received a notification (the "Notice") from the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") that the Company is in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing requirements. Specifically, the Notice provided that the closing price of the Company’s common stock was at least $1.00 per share on both the last trading day of the preceding calendar month (within the prescribed cure period) and over the 30 trading days preceding the end of that month. As a result, the Company’s stock will no longer be traded with the notation ".BC" after its listing symbol "HNR."

As previously disclosed, on February 13, 2015, the Company received a notice from the NYSE that the Company was not in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing requirements because the Company had not maintained a minimum average closing price of $1.00 per share of common stock over 30 consecutive trading days.
