                  9, 2009, Vineyard National Bancorp (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) received a letter from NYSE
                  Amex LLC (the &#8220;Exchange&#8221;) advising the Company that the Exchange intends to
                  suspend trading in the Company&#8217;s 7.5% Series D Noncumulative Preferred Stock
                  (&#8220;Preferred Stock&#8221;), apply to the Securities and Exchange Commission
                  ("SEC")&#160;to delist the Preferred Stock and truncate the procedures regarding
                  continued listing evaluation and follow-up as specified in Section
                  1009 of the
                  NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide. The staff of the Exchange's Corporate
                  Compliance
                  Department determined that the Company is not in compliance with
                  certain of its
                  continued listing standards, resulting from the failure of the
                  Company to timely
                  file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
                  31, 2008 , the
                  low market capitalization of the Company's publicly traded securities
                  and the
                  Company's liquidity position as described in the Company's Form
                  12b-25

Item 3.01
Notice
                          of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing
                          Rule or Standard;
                          Transfer of Listing.
On
                  April
                  9, 2009, Vineyard National Bancorp (the "Company") received a letter from NYSE
                  Amex LLC (the "Exchange") advising the Company that the Exchange intends to
                  suspend trading in the Company's 7.5% Series D Noncumulative Preferred Stock
                  ("Preferred Stock"), apply to the Securities and Exchange Commission
                  ("SEC") to delist the Preferred Stock and truncate the procedures regarding
                  continued listing evaluation and follow-up as specified in Section
                  1009 of the
                  NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide. The staff of the Exchange's Corporate
                  Compliance
                  Department determined that the Company is not in compliance with
                  certain of its
                  continued listing standards, resulting from the failure of the
                  Company to timely
                  file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
                  31, 2008 , the
                  low market capitalization of the Company's publicly traded securities
                  and the
                  Company's liquidity position as described in the Company's Form
                  12b-25
                  notification of late filing filed with the SEC on April 1, 2009.
A
                  copy of
                  the press release issued by the Company announcing receipt of the Exchange
                  letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein
