Item 3.01.     Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
 
On September 10, 2010, New Oriental Energy & Chemical Corp. (the “Company”) received a notification letter stating NASDAQ has denied the Company’s request for continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market.
.
As previously disclosed on July 9, 2010 the Company received notification from that the Company’s stockholders’ equity of $1,225,480, as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, did not comply with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement of $2,500,000 for continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(b)(1).  On August 27, 2010, as provided in the NASDAQ Listing Rules, the Company submitted to NASDAQ a plan and timeline to achieve and sustain compliance.

The determination letter states that the Company's appeal of the delisting determination must be made to a NASDAQ Listing Qualification Panel (the “Panel”) by submitting a hearing request on or before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on September 17, 2010 and that a hearing request will stay the suspension of the Company's securities and the filing of the Form 25-NSE pending the Panel's decision. The Company intends to timely submit a hearing request and to present its plan of compliance in support of the Company's position at the hearing. The Company is currently considering actions that may allow it to regain compliance with the NASDAQ continued listing standards and maintain its NASDAQ listing. However, there can be no assurances that the Panel will grant a request for a hearing or that the Company will be able to successfully argue in support of its position.
