Item 3.01
Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
 
On February 14, 2008, Willow Financial Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") received an additional Nasdaq Staff Determination notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC stating that the Company is not in compliance with the Nasdaq requirements for continued listing set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14).  The basis for the February 14th notice is the Company’s failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2007.  As previously announced, the Company initially was subject to a similar delisting notice due to its failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2007.  As discussed below, subsequent to its hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”), the Company’s request for continued listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market despite its failure to timely file its September 30, 2007 Form 10-Q was granted subject to certain conditions, including that the Company file that Form 10-Q on or before April 8, 2008.  As indicated in the Company’s press released dated February 21, 2008 announcing the additional Nasdaq Staff Determination notice, the Company has made an additional submission to the Panel requesting additional relief from the listing requirements as it continues its efforts to complete and file its Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2007 on or before the April 8, 2008 compliance date and, thereafter, to complete and file its Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2007.  Pending a decision by the Panel, the Company’s shares will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market.
 
A copy of the February 21, 2008, press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference thereto.
 
Item 8.01
Other Information.

A copy of the February 11, 2008 press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by reference thereto.
