Item 3.01

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

On November 28, 2017, the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) notified Patriot National, Inc. (the “Company”) that it was commencing proceedings to delist the Company’s common stock because the Company is no longer suitable for listing pursuant to Section 802.01D of the NYSE continued listing standards. The Company’s common stock was suspended from trading on November 28, 2017. The NYSE reached this decision in view of the Company’s November 28, 2017 announcement that it entered into a restructuring support agreement which contemplates that the Company will file a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. In reaching its delisting determination, the staff of the NYSE noted the uncertainty as to the timing and outcome of the bankruptcy process, as well as the uncertainty as to the ultimate effect of this process on the value of the Company’s common stock.

Under the NYSE delisting procedures, the Company has a right to a review of this determination by a Committee of the Board of Directors of the NYSE, provided a written request for such review is filed with the Assistant Corporate Secretary of the NYSE within ten business days after receiving the notice of delisting. As of the filing of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company does not plan to appeal the NYSE’s determination.
