Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
Terran Orbital Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Terran Orbital”), maintains warrants that are currently listed to trade on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol “LLAP WS” (the “Warrants”). Each Warrant is exercisable for one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. On August 21, 2024, the NYSE notified the Company, and subsequently publicly announced, that the NYSE has determined to (a) commence proceedings to delist the Warrants and (b) immediately suspend trading in the Warrants due to “abnormally low selling price” levels pursuant to Section 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. The Company has until September 5, 2024 to appeal the NYSE’s determination with respect to the Warrants.
The delisting procedures for the Warrants will not affect the trading in the Company’s Common Stock, which will continue on the NYSE under the symbol “LLAP.” Continued trading of the Company’s Common Stock remains subject to the Company’s ability to regain compliance with the continued listing standard set forth in Section 802.01C of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual prior to the expiration of the previously announced six-month cure period on December 17, 2024, unless otherwise extended until the Company’s next annual stockholder’s meeting, and continued compliance with the NYSE’s other continued listing requirements. Furthermore, delisting of the Warrants is not anticipated to impact the ongoing business operations of the Company, our previously announced merger transaction or the Company’s reporting requirements with the SEC.
