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

On May 8, 2012, USEC Inc. ("USEC") received notice from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) that the average closing price of its common stock was below the NYSE's continued listing criteria relating to minimum share price. Rule 802.01C of the NYSE's Listed Company Manual requires that a company's common stock trade at a minimum average closing price of $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. A copy of USEC's press release announcing the NYSE's notification is attached as Exhibit 99.1.

In accordance with the NYSE's rules, on May 14, 2012, USEC provided written notice to the NYSE of its intent to cure this deficiency. The Company is evaluating its options to cure the price deficiency, including a reverse stock split, which would require shareholder approval at or prior to the Company's next annual meeting of shareholders. The Company has six months from receipt of the notice to regain compliance with the NYSE's price criteria (or by no later than the Company's next annual meeting of shareholders if shareholder approval is required). Subject to the NYSE's rules, during the cure period, the Company's common stock will continue to be listed and trade on the NYSE, subject to the Company's continued compliance with the NYSE's other applicable listing rules. The Company is currently in compliance with all other NYSE listing rules.

USEC can regain compliance at any time during the six-month cure period if on the last trading day of a calendar month during the cure period, the company has a closing share price of at least $1.00 and an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading-day of that month or on the last day of the cure period. If the Company effectuates a reverse stock split vote by no later than its next annual meeting of shareholders to cure the condition, the condition will be deemed cured if the price promptly exceeds $1.00 per share, and the price remains above the level for at least the following 30 trading days.
