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

 

On May 7, 2024, Yotta Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) received written notice (the “First Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(C) because the Company has not maintained a minimum Market Value of Publicly Held Securities (“MVPHS”) of at least $15 million. The First Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s listed securities (the “Listed Securities”).

 

The Company has 180 calendar days from the date of the First Notice, or until November 4, 2024, to regain compliance. If at any time during this 180 day period the MVPHS is at least $15 million for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company with written confirmation of compliance and this matter will be closed. Alternatively, the Company may consider applying for a transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Capital Market”). In order to transfer, the Company must submit an on-line Transfer Application, pay a $5,000 fee and meet the Capital Market’s continued listing requirements.

 

On the same date, the Company received written notice (the “Second Notice”) from Nasdaq stating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b) because the Company has not maintained a minimum 1,100,000 publicly held shares. The Second Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s listed securities (the “Listed Securities”).

 

The Company has 45 calendar days to submit a plan to regain compliance. If the plan is accepted, Nasdaq will grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Second Notice, or until November 4, 2024, to regain compliance. Alternatively, the Company may consider applying for a transfer to the Capital Market. In order to transfer, the Company must submit an on-line Transfer Application, pay a $5,000 fee and meet the Capital Market’s continued listing requirements.

 

If the Company does not regain compliance with the publicly held shares requirement within the compliance period, the Company’s Listed Securities will be subject to delisting. In the event the Company receives notice that the Company’s Listed Securities are being delisted, Nasdaq’s rules permit the Company to appeal the delisting determination by the Nasdaq staff to a hearings panel.
