No. The NYSE does not "forcefully delist" companies that are not in compliance with listing rules. There are delisting procedures found in NYSE Listed Company Manual, Section 8 Suspension and Delisting - mainly 802.02 and 802.03 and 804.00 the formal delisting procedures when a cure is not forthcoming. see: https://bit.ly/2Vvjdfz
Regarding the December 1, 2008 to 30 days later period see below.
Before delisting, the NYSE sends a notice listing non-compliance and waits for a company response indicating a plan to reach compliance or to voluntarily delist or become subject to negative delisting procedures. Companies are given a 6 month cure period.
In the case of FNMA, FNMA fell out of compliance under 802.01C - Price Criteria for Capital or Common Stock. See: https://bit.ly/33gFjVL
The item is reproduced below:
I don't recall seeing any press release or other communication by FHFA that indicated any attempt at a "cure" to bring the price back above $1.
Yes. There were no attempts made to cure. Alternatives were considered and deemed as inadequate and therefore not employed. FHFA declared that the alternatives to cure deficiencies did not assure compliance success.
It is odd that FHFA used the 30-day closing price argument in June of 2010, when it was first true 18 months prior.
It was not an argument and it is not odd. It was not an argument since the NYSE sent notice of price compliance failure to Fannie Mae. FHFA declined to become compliant and voluntarily delisted Fannie Mae common and preferred shares on the NYSE and Chicago Stock Exchange (and Freddie Mac).
It is not odd since the NYSE sent a price non-compliance notice to Fannie Mae on November 12, 2008. The FHFA responded that it will try to reach compliance by May 11, 2009. See the November documents linked below. Here is an excerpt from the November 2008 8-K Item 3.01 submission:
