SECTION 3 - SECURITIES AND TRADING MARKETS

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

On October 30, 2009, South Texas Oil Company (the "Company") received notice of a determination of the staff of the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department, in accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rules 5100, 5110(b), and IM-5100-1, to:

•	delist the Company's common stock (trading symbol: STXX)

•	suspend trading in the Company's common stock at the opening of business on November 10, 2009, and

•	file a Form 25-NSE with the Securities and Exchange Commission removing the Company's common stock from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market.

The NASDAQ staff provided the following reasons for the delisting: the bankruptcy filing announced by the Company and the associated public interest concerns raised by it; concerns regarding the residual equity interest of the existing listed securities holders; and concerns about the Company’s ability to sustain compliance with all requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market.

The Company does not intend to request a hearing with the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel to appeal the proposed delisting.

On November 6, 2009, NASDAQ halted the trading of the Company’s common stock.
