Pursuant to the Notice, the Company had seven days, or until April 30, 2024, to request a stay of the suspension and delisting of the Company’s securities, pending a Hearings Panel decision. The Company presented their views at the hearings conference today. There can be no assurance that, following the hearing, such a stay will be granted or that the Company will be able to regain compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing.
