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

On January 12, 2009, BPO Management Services, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Company”),  received a Staff Determination Letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) stating that the merger of Outsourcing Merger Sub, Inc. with and into BPO Management Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation, constituted a business combination that resulted in a “change of control” pursuant to Marketplace Rule 4340(a).  Accordingly, the post-merger entity was required to satisfy all of NASDAQ’s initial listing criteria and complete the initial listing process.  The letter went on to state that the initial listing application was not approved in part because the Company did not meet the minimum $4 bid price requirement for initial listing.  In addition, the Company does not meet the market value of listed securities or market value of publicly held shares requirements applicable for a company seeking initial listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market.  Accordingly, the Company’s securities are subject to delisting unless the Company requests a hearing before a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”).

The Company intends to request a hearing before the Panel to appeal NASDAQ’s determination, at which it will present its plan for demonstrating compliance with all applicable listing requirements.  As a result, the Company’s securities will remain listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market at least until the Panel renders its decision following the hearing. However, there can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing.

A copy of the press release dated January 15, 2009 announcing receipt of the letter from NASDAQ is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
