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

On October 12, 2010, Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. (the “Company”) received a written deficiency notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“NASDAQ”), advising the Company that the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) for the previous 30 consecutive business days had been below the minimum $1.00 per share (“Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) required for continued listing on the NASDAQ Global Market pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (“Rule”).

Pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been provided an initial grace period of 180 calendar days, or until April 11, 2011, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. The Notice further provides that NASDAQ will provide written confirmation stating that the Company has achieved compliance with the Rule if at any time before April 11, 2011, the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. If the Company does not regain compliance with the Rule by April 11, 2011, NASDAQ will provide written notification to the Company that the Company’s common stock is subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Global Market, at which time the Company will have an opportunity to appeal the determination to a NASDAQ Hearings Panel.

The Company intends to use all reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of its common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market, but there can be no guarantee that the Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
