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


As previously disclosed, on February 18, 2022, the Company received a deficiency letter from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, for the preceding 30 consecutive trading days, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock was below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Requirement”).

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company was provided an initial period of 180 calendar days (the “Initial Compliance Period”) to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement. The Initial Compliance Period ended on August 17, 2022. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock was required to meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days during the Initial Compliance Period. The Company did not evidence compliance with the Bid Price Requirement during the Initial Compliance Period. On August 18, 2022, the Company received a new letter (the “Notice”) from the Staff stating that it had determined to grant the Company an extension through February 13, 2023 to evidence compliance with the Bid Price Requirement. According to the Notice, if at any time before February 13, 2023, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock is at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, the Staff will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the Bid Price Requirement and the common stock will continue to be eligible for listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. If, however, compliance with the Bid Price Requirement cannot be demonstrated by February 13, 2023, the Staff will provide written notification that the Company’s common stock will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the Staff’s delisting determination to a Panel. There can be no assurance that, if the Company does appeal the Staff’s delisting determination to the Panel, such appeal would be successful.
