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

On January 10, 2013, China Botanic Pharmaceutical Inc. (the "Company") received a warning letter  and a notice of failure to satisfy a continued listing standard (the "Letter") from the NYSE MKT LLC (the "Exchange").  The Letter indicates that the Company is not in compliance with Section 803(B)(2)(a)(iii) of the NYSE MKT LLC Company Guide (the "Company Guide"), in that it has failed to maintain at least one member of the Audit Committee who is financially sophisticated.  Such non-compliance is a result of the previously announced resignation of Zack Pan from the Company’s board of directors, audit chair and committees thereof. The Company has until the earlier of its next annual shareholders' meeting or January 11, 2014, whichever comes first or if the next annual meeting is held before March 25, 2013, by March 25, 2013 to regain compliance with the Section 803(B)(2)(a)(iii) of the Company Guide. The Company is continuing its efforts to search for a replacement director who is financially sophisticated and expects that it will appoint a replacement director within the foregoing time period and therefore regain compliance with the applicable listing standards.
 
The Letter provides that such letter constitutes a warning issued to the Company pursuant to Section 1009(a)(i) of the Company Guide.
 
The Company issued a press release on January 15, 2013 relating to the foregoing matters. A copy of the press release is furnished with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
