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

On June 29, 2012, Escalon Medical Corp. (the "Company") received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff of the NASDAQ Stock Market (the "Staff") indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the $1.00 minimum closing bid price requirement under the NASDAQ Listing Rules (the "Listing Rules"). The Listing Rules require listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. If a NASDAQ-listed company trades below the minimum bid price requirement for 30 consecutive business days, it is notified of the deficiency. Based upon the Staff's review, the Company no longer meets this requirement. The Listing Rules provide the Company with a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until December 26, 2012 in which to regain compliance with this requirement.
To regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, the Company must have a closing bid price of $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during this compliance period. In the event that the Company does not regain compliance within this period, it may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance by satisfying certain requirements. However, if it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, the Staff will notify the Company that its securities will be delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Company may still appeal the Staff's determination to delist its securities to a Hearing Panel. During any appeal process, the Company's common stock would continue to trade on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The NASDAQ notification letter has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Company is currently looking at all of the options available with respect to regaining such compliance.





Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

DePiano with 2,284,159 votes for and 301,692 votes withheld and Jay L.
