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

(a) On July 30, 2007, Ronson Corporation (the "Registrant"), following its
provision of the notice described in section (b) of this Item 3.01, received
notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market that it is not in compliance with the
listing requirement that a majority of the board of directors be comprised of
independent directors, as is required by Rule 4350 of the Marketplace Rules of
the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Marketplace Rules allow the Registrant up to 180
days to reconstitute its board of directors so that the Registrant will satisfy
this requirement. The Registrant has determined to take such action as is
necessary by January 15, 2008 so that it will comply with the foregoing
requirement.

(b) On July 30, 2007, the Registrant notified the Nasdaq Stock Market that Paul
H. Einhorn, one of its independent directors, had resigned on July 20, 2007, and
that as a result of Mr. Einhorn's departure, a majority of the board of
directors of the Registrant was no longer comprised of independent directors, as
is required by Rule 4350 of the Marketplace Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.
Rule 4350(c) of the Marketplace Rules allows the Registrant up to 180 days to
reconstitute its board of directors so that the Registrant will satisfy the
requirement that a majority of its board be comprised of independent directors.
The Registrant has determined to take such action as is necessary by January 15,
2008 so that it will be in compliance with the requirements of Marketplace Rule
4350.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;
Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(b) On July 20, 2007, Paul H. Einhorn notified us of his decision to resign from

disagreement with the Registrant or with the Registrant's operations, policies
or practices.
