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

On August 16, 2012, Satcon Technology Corporation (the “Company”) received a notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) advising the Company that for 30 consecutive trading days preceding the date of the Notice, the Company’s listed securities did not maintain the minimum market value of $35 million required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(b)(2) (the “Market Value of Listed Securities Rule”). The Notice has no effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock at this time.

The Notice also stated that, pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has been provided 180 calendar days, or until February 12, 2013, to regain compliance with the Market Value of Listed Securities Rule. To do so, the market value of the Company’s listed securities must close at $35 million or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days prior to that date.

If the Company does not regain compliance with the Market Value of Listed Securities Rule prior to February 12, 2013, then Nasdaq will notify the Company that the Company’s securities are subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal Nasdaq’s delisting determination to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel.

The Company intends to actively monitor the market value for its listed securities between now and February 12, 2013, and will consider available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Market Value of Listed Securities Rule.

As disclosed earlier, on June 19, 2012 the Company had received a delisting determination letter from the staff of Nasdaq due to the Company’s failure to regain compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market’s minimum bid price requirement for continued listing, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”). The Company appealed Nasdaq’s determination before Nasdaq’s Hearing Panel on July 26, 2012 and is awaiting the Hearing Panel’s decision. The delisting of the Company’s stock has been stayed pending the completion of the appeal process.
