Item 8.01. Other Events.

On October 30, 2009, International Wire Group, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that the Company will file a Certificate and Notice of Termination of Registration on Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on or about November 6, 2009 to suspend immediately its obligation to file current and periodic reports under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and to terminate the registration of the Company’s common stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.

The Company currently has fewer than 300 shareholders of record of its common stock and otherwise will qualify to terminate the registration of its common stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. Upon the filing of the Form 15, the Company’s obligations to file certain reports with the SEC, including, but not limited to, Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, will immediately be suspended. The Company expects the formal deregistration to become effective ninety (90) days after filing the Form 15.

Following deregistration, the Company anticipates that its common stock will continue to be eligible for quotation on the Pink OTC Markets under the symbol ITWG.PK. The Company can give no assurance, however, that trading in its stock will continue on the Pink OTC Markets or that any other market for the Company’s common stock will exist.
