The Company submitted a plan of compliance (the "Plan") to the Exchange on August 18, 2023, addressing how the Company intends to regain compliance with these requirements by December 20, 2024.
On September 27, 2023, the Company received notice from the Exchange that it had accepted the Plan and granted a plan period through December 20, 2024, to regain compliance with the continued listing standards. If the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing standards by that date or if the Company does not make progress consistent with the Plan during the plan period, the Exchange may commence delisting procedures.
