The Board of Directors of Axion Power International, Inc. (the “Company”) approved delisting of the Company’s equity securities from the Nasdaq Capital Market and transfer to the OTCQB, to occur on February 8, 2016.

In its press release, the Company states that it has become aware that it is not in compliance with the continued listing requirement set forth in Rule 5550(a)(2) as the bid price for the Company's common stock has closed below $1.00 for the past consecutive 30 days. Notwithstanding our previously issued press release, the Company may reconsider a reverse stock split in the future should market conditions warrant.
