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

On June 18, 2012, Cytokinetics, Incorporated (the "Company") received a letter from the listing qualifications department staff of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC ("NASDAQ"), notifying the Company that for the last 30 consecutive business days the bid price of the Company’s common stock had closed below $1.00 per share, the minimum closing bid price required by the continued listing requirements of NASDAQ set forth in Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the "Rule").

In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has 180 calendar days, or until December 17, 2012, to regain compliance with the Rule (the "Compliance Period"). To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during the Compliance Period. The Company intends to actively monitor the bid price for its common stock between now and December 17, 2012, and will consider all available options to regain compliance with the Rule.

If the Company does not regain compliance by December 17, 2012, NASDAQ will provide written notification to the Company that its common stock may be delisted. The Company may submit an application on or before December 17, 2012 to transfer its securities to The NASDAQ Capital Market. Following submission of the application, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-day period to regain compliance if it meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards, with the exception of the bid price requirement, for The NASDAQ Capital Market, and provides written notice to NASDAQ of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split if necessary. Alternatively, the Company may appeal NASDAQ’s decision to a Listing Qualifications Panel, which will stay the delisting until a decision is rendered subsequent to the appeal hearing. There can be no assurance, if the Company does appeal NASDAQ’s decision, that such appeal would be successful.

On June 19, 2012, the Company issued a press release announcing its receipt of NASDAQ’s letter. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
