ITEM 3.01             NOTICE OF DELISTING OR FAILURE TO SATISFY A CONTINUED

LISTING RULE OR STANDARD; TRANSFER OF LISTING

(a) – (c)                       Not applicable.

(d)            On January 14, 2008, BNCCORP, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), issued a press release announcing its intention to voluntarily withdraw the Company’s common stock from listing on the Nasdaq Global Market and from registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  The Company is eligible to voluntarily initiate the delisting and deregistration of its common stock because there are fewer than 300 record holders of its common stock.  In connection therewith, the Company formally notified the Nasdaq Stock Market on January 14, 2008, of its intention to file a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 24, 2008.

The Company has requested that Nasdaq permit trading in its common stock until the close of trading on January 28, 2008, but cannot provide assurances that such request will be granted.

The Company’s decision to delist and deregister was not based on the receipt of any notice indicating that the Company has failed to satisfy any rule or standard for the continued listing of its common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market or asserting any material non-compliance with the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.

For more information, see the Company’s press release, dated January 14, 2008, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
