Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
 
As previously reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by OCZ Technology Group, Inc. (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Mr. Sunit Saxena had resigned as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and as chairman of its Audit Committee effective as of May 6, 2010.  The Company notified The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) of Mr. Saxena’s resignation on the same date that the Company received the resignation notice.
 
As expected, on May 11, 2010, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq, indicating that, as a result of Mr. Saxena’s resignation, the Company no longer complies with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605, which requires that the Board be comprised of a majority of independent directors and that the Audit Committee be comprised of at least three independent directors.  The Company currently has four directors, of whom two qualify as independent directors.  The Company intends to comply with Nasdaq’s Board and audit committee requirements as set forth in Rule 5605 within the cure period provided by Nasdaq.
 
Pursuant to Rules 5605(b)(1) and 5605(c)(4)(A), the Company has been provided with a cure period in order to regain compliance as follows:
 
·   
Until the earlier of the Company’s next annual stockholders’ meeting or May 6, 2011; or
 
·   
If the next annual stockholders’ meeting is held before November 2, 2010, then the Company must evidence compliance no later than November 2, 2010.
 
The Company must submit to Nasdaq documentation, including biographies of any new directors, evidencing compliance with the Rule no later than this date.  The Company intends to comply with Nasdaq’s Board and audit committee requirements as set forth in the Rule within the cure period provided by Nasdaq and will evidence such compliance to Nasdaq no later than this date.
 
Statements herein relating to future performance, conditions or strategies and other business matters, including expectations regarding the timing of curing the non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605 are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.  The Company cautions that these forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time.  Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements or historical experience include risks and uncertainties, including the Company’s ability to attract qualified individuals to serve on its Board, the cash and equity compensation such individuals might require to serve on the Board, and the timing of such elections.  Further information on the factors and risks that could affect the Company’s business, financial conditions and results of operations, is contained in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which are available at www.sec.gov.  These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
