SECTION 8 – OTHER EVENTS

Item 8.01              Other Events

On April 30, 2010, Nord Resources Corporation (“Nord” or the “Company”) issued a news release announcing that the Continued Listings Committee of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) has determined to further defer its listing-review decision. The Committee expects to inform Nord of its decision no later than May 31, 2010. Nord has been informed that the Committee will not be able to provide any extensions beyond that date unless there is disclosure regarding an event that would allow the Company to comply with the Exchange’s continued listing requirements.

As previously announced, Nord received an exemption from certain shareholder approval requirements under the rules of the TSX in connection with Nord’s US$12 million private placement completed in November 2009, on the basis of financial hardship. Reliance on this exemption automatically triggered a TSX listing review to confirm that Nord continues to meet the TSX listing requirements. The Company believes that it will be in compliance at that time.
