Item 3.01.    Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
 
On July 26, 2010, First State Bancorporation (the "Company") received a notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") that its Hearings Panel is denying the Company's request for continued listing on Nasdaq. Nasdaq will suspend trading of the Company's shares effective at the open of business on Wednesday, July 28, 2010. As previously reported on Form 8-K, filed on June 17, 2010, the Company had requested a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel as set forth in the List Rule 5800 Series, where a plan outlining the Company's plans for regaining compliance would be presented. The hearing occurred on July 22, 2010 and was precipitated by receipt of a notice from the Nasdaq on June 15, 2010, indicating that the Company had not regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing set forth in Listing Rule 5450 (a)(1), and that its securities were subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Global Select Market The Company had also previously reported on Form 8-K, filed December 17, 2009, that it had been notified by Nasdaq on December 14, 2009 that the bid price of its common stock had closed at less than $1.00 per share over the previous 30 consecutive business days, at which time Nasdaq provided 180 calendar days, or until June 14, 2010 to regain compliance.
