Item 3.01

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

 

(a) On May 8, 2008, NYSE Regulation, Inc. (“NYSE Regulation”) issued a press release (a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K) to announce its decision to suspend the common stock of Lenox Group Inc. (the “Company”) from trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) prior to the opening of the market on May 16, 2008. The decision to suspend trading and initiate delisting procedures is a result of the Company not satisfying the NYSE’s continued listing standard to maintain average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period of not less than $25 million, which is a minimum threshold under Section 802.01B of the NYSE Listed Company Manual for continued listing.

 

On May 8, 2008, the Company issued a press release (a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K) stating that it is taking such actions as are necessary to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board.
