Item 3.01.

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

On March 12, 2010, Tamalpais Bancorp (the “Company”) received a letter from the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) notifying the Company that it no longer meets NASDAQ’s continued listing requirement under Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”) because the bid price for its common stock has closed below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days.

The notification does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company’s common shares from the NASDAQ Capital Market because, pursuant to Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has 180 days, until September 8, 2010, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. If, prior to September 8, 2010, the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share, or higher, for at least 10 consecutive business days, NASDAQ will notify the Company that the matter will be closed.

If compliance with the Bid Price Rule cannot be established prior to September 8, 2010, the Company’s common stock will be subject to delisting from the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Company may, however, be eligible for an additional 180-day grace period if it satisfies the initial listing standards (with the exception of the Bid Price Rule) for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Company is evaluating its options following receipt of the notification and intends to take appropriate actions in order to retain the listing of its common stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market.

The Company issued a press release on March 18, 2010 that disclosed its receipt of this notice from NASDAQ. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
