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

(a) On April 1, 2010, Community Bankers Trust Corporation (the “Company”) received notice from the NYSE Amex that it is not in compliance with the exchange’s continued listing standard with respect to the timely filing of its periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Specifically, the Company is not in compliance with Sections 134 and 1101 of the NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide and its listing agreement because it failed to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (the “2009 form 10-K”).

As set forth in its notice, the NYSE Amex requires the Company to submit a plan of compliance by April 15, 2010, to advise the NYSE Amex of any action that the Company has taken, or will take, to file the 2009 Form 10-K and bring the Company into compliance with the listing standards by no later than June 30, 2010. The Company intends to submit the required plan to NYSE Amex by April 15, 2010.

The Company intends to file the 2009 Form 10-K with the Commission as soon as possible.
