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

On April 3, 2007, the American Stock Exchange ("AMEX") notified Samaritan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. that its listing on the AMEX exchange is being continued pursuant to an extension with a plan completion date of May 31, 2007, which encompasses the due date for Samaritan’s quarterly Report (Form 10-Q) for the period ending March 31, 2007 to demonstrate that it has regained compliance with the continued listing standards in Section 1003(a)(ii) and (iii) of the AMEX Company Guide. The company must also address Section 1003(f)(v) of the AMEX Company guide.

Previously on November 6, 2006 and on January 30, 2007 , the AMEX Listing Qualifications staff notified the Company it no longer complies with Exchange's continued listing standard due to its shareholder's equity of less than $4 million and losses from continuing operations and/or losses in three out of its four most recent fiscal years, as set forth in Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Company guide; with its shareholder's equity of less than $6 million from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years, as set forth in Section 1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide; and with its low selling price, as set forth in Section 1003(f)(v) of the Company guide.





Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On April 5, 2007, the Company issued a press release announcing the AMEX notice, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished pursuant to Regulation FD and is incorporated by reference herein.
