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

On June 22, 2012, Nobility Homes, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC stating that the Company is not in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 53520(c)(1) because the Company did not timely file its Form 10-Q report for the period ended May 5, 2012 (the “Form 10-Q”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

As previously disclosed, the Company announced on May 14, 2012 that the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”) had granted the Company’s request for continued listing on The NASDAQ Stock Market through September 14, 2012, so as to allow the Company time to regain compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “filing requirement”). In response to notices of non-compliance based on the fact that the Company is not in compliance with the filing requirement because the Company could not timely file its Form 10-Q reports for the period ended August 6, 2011 and February 4, 2012 and Form 10-K report for the year ended November 5, 2011 with the SEC, the Company requested a hearing before the Panel. Pursuant to the NASDAQ Listing Rules, the September 14, 2012 deadline represents the maximum amount of time that the Panel could grant.

In response to the Staff’s June 22, 2012 letter, the Company is informing the Panel that this additional delayed filing is due to the Company continuing to value its guarantee obligations under the Company’s Finance Revenue Sharing Agreement with 21st Mortgage Corporation for periods prior to the agreement’s amendment on October 25, 2011.

While the Company is diligently working to regain compliance with the filing requirement and expects to do so by the deadline, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so.

The Company issued a press release on June 28, 2012, disclosing receipt of the June 22, 2012 letter from NASDAQ. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
