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

On December 14, 2007, the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) notified Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) that for the previous 30 consecutive business days, the bid price of the Company’s publicly held shares had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing on the NASDAQ Global Market pursuant to Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(5). In accordance with Marketplace Rule 4450(e)(2), the Company is provided with one-hundred eighty (180) calendar days, or until June 11, 2008, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. If, at any time prior to June 11, 2008, the minimum bid price of the Company’s publicly held shares closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, the NASDAQ staff will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. If compliance with Rule 4450(a)(5) cannot be demonstrated by June 11, 2008, then the NASDAQ staff will provide written notification to the Company that its securities will be delisted. At that time, the Company will be permitted to appeal NASDAQ’s determination to a Listings Qualifications Panel.

The Company will use its best efforts to regain compliance and fully expects that it will regain compliance prior to June 11, 2008.

A copy of the Company's press release announcing the notification from NASDAQ is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 99.1.
