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

On August 10, 2012, Central European Distribution Corporation (the “Company”) received a notification letter from a representative of the Listing Qualifications Department of The NASDAQ OMX Group (“NASDAQ”) stating that due to the Company’s inability to timely file its Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2012 (the “2nd Quarter Form 10-Q”), the Company was not in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). This notification was issued in accordance with standard NASDAQ procedures, in connection with the Company’s announcement on August 10, 2012, on Form 12b-25 that the Company would not be able to timely file its 2nd Quarter Form 10-Q.

The NASDAQ notification letter noted that the Company has until October 9, 2012 to submit to NASDAQ a plan to regain compliance with the applicable listing rule. Upon acceptance of the Company’s compliance plan, NASDAQ may grant the Company an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the 2nd Quarter Form 10-Q’s initial due date, or until February 5, 2013, for the Company to regain compliance with NASDAQ’s filing requirements for continued listing. The Company intends to file its 2nd Quarter Form 10-Q with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission as soon as practicable. If necessary, the Company will submit a plan to regain compliance with NASDAQ’s filing requirements within the 60 day deadline.
