Item 3.01.
Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
 
On April 17, 2008, The LGL Group, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Letter”) from the American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”) notifying the Company that it had failed to file its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 (the “Annual Report”), in a timely manner and that in order to maintain its AMEX listing, the Company must submit a Plan to AMEX by May 1, 2008 advising AMEX of actions it has taken or will take to file its Annual Report.
 
The Company intends to prepare the Plan and submit it to AMEX by May 1, 2008.  If AMEX determines that the Company has made a reasonable demonstration in the Plan of its ability to regain compliance with all applicable continued listing standards by July 15, 2008 (the “Deadline”), AMEX will accept the Plan and the Company will remain listed.  During this time, the Company will continue to work to resolve the matters delaying the filing of the Annual Report.  The Company anticipates that it will be able to file the Annual Report by the Deadline.
 
Within the Letter received from AMEX, the Company was advised that it has materially violated its listing agreement with AMEX and Sections 134 and 1101 of the AMEX Company Guide by failing to file its Annual Report in a timely manner.  In accordance with the AMEX Company Guide, AMEX is authorized to suspend and, unless prompt corrective action is taken, remove the Company’s securities from its AMEX listing.
 
Pursuant to Section 402 of the AMEX Company Guide, on April 22, 2008, the Company filed a press release disclosing the Company’s receipt of the Letter and the other matters discussed herein.  A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
