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

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Zoom Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2014, Cheng Wang resigned as a director of the Company, effective February 21, 2014. On March 12, 2014, the Company received a Nasdaq Staff Deficiency Letter indicating that, as a result of Mr. Wang's resignation, the Company failed to comply with the audit committee requirements for continued listing set forth in Rule 5605 of the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(2) requires that the Company have an audit committee comprised of at least three members who meet the qualifications set forth in such rule. With the resignation of Mr. Wang, the Company's audit committee currently consists of only two independent directors. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(4), Nasdaq has provided the Company with a cure period (the "Cure Period"), until the earlier of (i) the Company's next annual shareholders' meeting, (ii) August 20, 2014, if the next annual shareholders' meeting is held before August 20, 2014, or (iii) February 21, 2015, in order to regain compliance.

Once the Company became aware of this violation, it immediately began taking steps to identify a new director candidate to replace Mr. Wang to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(2). The Company is in the process of selecting a suitable candidate and expects to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605 within the Cure Period.
