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

On September 22, 2009, Provident Community Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") received a letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market (the "Notification") providing notice that, for 30 consecutive trading days, the Company's common stock had not maintained a minimum market value of publicly held shares ("MVPHS") of $5 million as required for continued inclusion on The Nasdaq Global Market by Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(c). For NASDAQ purposes, MVPHS is the market value of the Company's publicly held shares, which is calculated by subtracting all shares held by officers, directors or beneficial owners of 10% or more of the total shares outstanding. The Notification has no effect on the listing of the Company's securities at this time.

NASDAQ has provided the Company 90 calendar days, or until December 21, 2009, to regain compliance with the rules. If, at any time before December 21, 2009, the MVPHS is at least $5 million for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days, NASDAQ will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(c) and the Company's shares will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Global Market. If the Company does not regain compliance by December 21, 2009, the NASDAQ Staff will provide written notification that the Company's securities will be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Listings Qualifications Panel.

On September 24, 2009, the Company issued a press release announcing its receipt of the Notification. The full text of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
