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

On June 2, 2016, AdCare Health Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice from NYSE Regulation, Inc. (“NYSE Regulation”) that it has accepted the Company’s plan to regain compliance with NYSE MKT LLC (“NYSE MKT”) continued listing standards during the period ending October 18, 2017 (the “Plan Period”). During the Plan Period, the Company will be subject to periodic review by NYSE Regulation staff, and the Company’s common stock and 10.875% Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock will continue to be listed on the NYSE MKT pursuant to an extension granted by NYSE Regulation. If the Company is not in compliance with NYSE MKT continued listing standards by October 18, 2017 or if the Company does not make progress consistent with its plan during the Plan Period, then NYSE Regulation staff will initiate delisting proceedings.

As previously reported, the Company was notified on April 18, 2016 that it is not in compliance with certain NYSE MKT continued listing standards relating to stockholders’ equity. Specifically, the Company is not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(i), Section 1003(a)(ii) and Section 1003(a)(iii) of the NYSE MKT Company Guide because the Company reported a stockholders’ deficit of $23.8 million as of December 31, 2015 and net losses for the last five (5) fiscal years.
