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

As previously disclosed by Accretive Health, Inc. (the “Company”), as a result of the Company's pending restatement of certain of its previously filed consolidated financial statements, the Company has been unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 Form 10-K”). Therefore, the Company is subject to the New York Stock Exchange's (the “NYSE”) late filing procedures as they pertain to annual reports, as set forth in Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.

On March 25, 2013, the Company announced that the NYSE granted its request for a listing extension, which expires on September 18, 2013. On September 16, 2013, the NYSE granted the Company's request for an additional listing extension. The Company will have until March 19, 2014 to file its 2012 Form 10-K. During that period, trading of the Company's shares on the NYSE will remain unaffected. If the Company does not file by March 19, 2014, the NYSE will initiate suspension and delisting procedures. The extension is subject to review by the NYSE on an ongoing basis. The Company continues to work diligently to complete ongoing work on its financial restatement and expects to meet the timing requirements set forth by the NYSE.
Safe Harbor Statement

The above statement that the Company expects to meet the timing requirements set forth by the NYSE is a forward-looking statement and is subject to risks and uncertainties. We have based this statement on the current status of the restatement process, other information now known to us, and our anticipated timing for the completion of the restatement and related SEC filings.  Although we believe that the assumptions and expectations reflected in this statement are reasonable, the timing of completion of the restatement process and related SEC filings in order to come into compliance with the NYSE's requirements for continued listing is subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and could vary materially from our current expectations.  We assume no, and we specifically disclaim any, obligation to update this statement to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting this statement.  We advise investors to consult any further disclosures we make on this topic in our SEC filings.
