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

On December 18, 2008, the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") announced that the common stock of Imperial Capital Bancorp, Inc. the “Company") (ticker symbol: IMP) will be suspended prior to the opening of the market on Monday, December 29, 2008. The NYSE determined to suspend trading because the Company has fallen below the NYSE’s continued listing standard regarding average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period of not less than $25,000,000, which is viewed as a minimum continued listing threshold.

The Company does not intend to take any further action to appeal the NYSE's decision and therefore, it is expected that the common stock will be delisted after completion by the NYSE of application to the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company expects trading in its common stock will be transferred to the over-the-counter market following the suspension of trading on the NYSE.
