Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On November 4, 2015, Premier Exhibitions, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) relating to the Company’s merger transaction with Dinoking Tech Inc. (the “Merger”). The Notice informed the Company of Nasdaq’s determination that the Merger was a “Change of Control” pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5110(a), and that the post-transaction entity was required to submit a listing application satisfying Nasdaq’s initial listing criteria. The Notice indicated that: (i) Nasdaq was unable to complete its review of the Company’s listing application due to incomplete responses by the Company to certain Nasdaq comments; (ii) the Company did not comply with the minimum $4 requirement for an initial listing, as stated in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5505(a); and (iii) accordingly, that Nasdaq intended to delist the Company.
The Company is permitted, and intends to, appeal the Nasdaq determination to a Hearings Panel. The Company must notify Nasdaq of its intent to appeal the determination no later than November 11, 2015. There can be no assurance that the Company’s appeal, even if timely made, will be successful or that the Company will be able to formulate or implement a plan satisfactory to the Hearings Panel that allows it to regain compliance and maintain the listing of its common stock on Nasdaq.
Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On November 5, 2015, Mark Sellers resigned from the Board of Directors of the Company, effective as of that date.
