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

 

On February 18, 2016, Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) received notification from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, for the 30 consecutive business days ended February 17, 2016, the bid price for the Company’s common stock had closed below the $1.00 per share minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). (the “Bid Price Rule”).

 

The Nasdaq notice indicated that, in accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company will be provided 180 calendar days through August 16, 2016 to regain compliance. If, at any time before August 16, 2016 the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that it has achieved compliance with the Bid Price Rule.

 

If the Company fails to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule before August 16, 2016 but meets all of the other applicable standards for initial listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market with the exception of the minimum bid price, then the Company may be eligible to have an additional 180 calendar days through February 12, 2017 to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule.
