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

On July 19, 2010, North American Galvanizing & Coatings, Inc. (“NGA”) filed a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission striking the shares of its common stock (the “Shares”) from listing and registration on the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) effective as of July 29, 2010. NGA is taking this action in connection with the anticipated merger (the “Merger”) of Big Kettle Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AZZ incorporated (“AZZ”), with and into NGA pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger among NGA, Merger Sub and AZZ dated March 31, 2010. Due to the number of Shares owned by Merger Sub, the requisite approval of the Merger by NGA’s stockholders is assured, and NGA intends to consummate the merger as soon as possible pursuant to applicable law. NGA anticipates that the Merger will be effective on August 3, 2010. Upon completion of the Merger, NGA will no longer meet the numerical listing requirements of NASDAQ.

NGA anticipates that the Shares will be traded only on the OTC “grey market” from July 29, 2010 through August 2, 2010, and NGA has not arranged for the listing and/or registration of its Shares on a national securities exchange or for quotation of its Shares in a quotation medium during this time.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On July 23, 2010, the Company issued a press release announcing that the Shares will be suspended from listing and registration on the NASDAQ effective as of July 29, 2010. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. In accordance with General Instruction B.2. of Form 8-K, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, that is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth in such filing.
