     Item 8.01  Other Events. 

 

Effective February 28, 2011, New World Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) had its stock quotation under the symbol “ NWBD ” deleted from the OTC Bulletin Board (the “OTCBB”).  The symbol was deleted for factors beyond the Company’s control due to various market makers electing to shift their orders from the OTCBB.  As a result of not having a sufficient number of market makers providing quotes on the Company’s common stock on the OTCBB for four consecutive days, the Company was deemed deficient in maintaining a listing standard at the OTCBB pursuant to Rule 15c2-11.  That determination was made entirely without the Company’s knowledge.

The Company now trades exclusively on the OTCQB, a new electronic interdealer quotation system comparable to the OTCBB whereby all SEC registered companies quoted on the OTC market are eligible to trade.  In the past year, there has been a significant drop off in the number of market makers that quote Bulletin Board stocks as trading has been shifting to the OTCQB.

Shares of the Company’s common stock remain tradable under the symbol “NWBD” on the OTCQB.  Investors can obtain a quote on the Company’s common stock by going to www.otcmarkets.com and searching under the symbol “NWBD”. 

The Company remains current in all its required SEC filings and with regulators in the jurisdictions in which it operates.
