Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As previously reported in a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2014, Collabrium Japan Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) received a written notice on February 20, 2014 from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(3) (the “Minimum Public Holders Rule”), which requires the Company to have at least of 300 public holders for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. Subsequently, the Nasdaq staff had accepted the Company’s plan to regain compliance with the Minimum Public Holders Rule and provided the Company until August 19, 2014 to demonstrate that it would be able to regain compliance in connection with an initial business combination by August 24, 2014.
On August 28, 2014, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq stating that the Company had failed to complete an initial business combination or demonstrate compliance with the Minimum Public Holders Rule within the required time period and that, accordingly, the Nasdaq staff had initiated procedures to delist the Company’s ordinary shares, units and warrants from Nasdaq.
The Company has requested a hearing to appeal the Nasdaq staff’s delisting determination. The request has stayed the suspension of the Company’s securities and the delisting procedures. The Company’s securities will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market while the appeal is pending. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its appeal of the delisting determination.
