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

On August 27, 2015, China Commercial Credit, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company is no longer in compliance with the $1.00 minimum closing bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock, and its common stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CCCR” at this time. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a grace period of 180 calendar days, or until February 23, 2016, to regain compliance with the minimum closing bid price requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for at least ten consecutive business days during this 180-day compliance period.

If the Company does not regain compliance with the minimum closing bid price requirement by February 23, 2016, Nasdaq may provide written notification to the Company that its securities will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may have alternatives to obtain an extension and/or avoid delisting, including an appeal of Nasdaq’s delisting determination to the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel.

The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its common stock between now and February 23, 2016 and will consider the various options available to it if its common stock does not trade at a level that is likely to regain compliance.
