Item 3.01   Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On April 6, 2005, Nara Bancorp, Inc. (“Nara Bancorp” or the “Company”) disclosed that it had received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market Listing Qualifications Department advising the Company that, as a result of the Company’s failure to file its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 (the “Annual Report”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by the due date, the Company was out of compliance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) and that as a result of such filing delinquency, a fifth character “E” would be appended to its trading symbol commencing at the opening of trading on April 7, 2005.  Nasdaq further advised the Company that its securities would be delisted from The Nasdaq Stock Market at the opening of business on April 14, 2005, unless the Company requested a hearing in accordance with the Marketplace Rules.  At a hearing before the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel held on May 12, 2005 (the “Hearing”), the Company requested a conditional listing of the Company’s securities on the Nasdaq National Market (“Nasdaq”) until June 30, 2005 to provide the Company an opportunity to file its periodic reports with the SEC and become compliant with the Nasdaq listing requirements.

 

On May 18, 2005, Nara Bancorp received a notification from The Nasdaq Stock Market Listing Qualifications Department advising the Company that its failure to file its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 (the “Quarterly Report”) with the SEC by the due date would also be considered by the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel when rendering its decision on the Company’s request for continued listing which was the subject of the Hearing.

 

On June 30, 2005, the Company filed its Annual Report and its Quarterly Report with the SEC.

 

On July 5, 2005, Nasdaq notified the Company that the Panel determined to grant the Company’s request to continue the Nasdaq listing and that the fifth character “E” which was added to Nara’s trading symbol on April 7, 2005 would be removed at the opening of trading on July 7, 2005.
