Item 8.01 Other Events

 

On October 30, 2024, SOBR Safe, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) confirming that the Company has regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”), the public float requirement in Listing Rule 5550(a)(4) (the “Minimum Float Rule”), and the stockholders’ equity requirement in Listing 5550(b)(1) (the “Equity Rule” and, collectively, with the Bid Price Rule and Minimum Float Rule, the “Nasdaq Listing Requirements”), as required by the Nasdaq Hearing Panel’s (“Panel”) decision dated August 5, 2024.

 

Pursuant to Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(B), the Company will be subject to a mandatory panel monitor for a period of one year from the date of such letter. If, within that one-year monitoring period, the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications staff (the “Staff”) finds that the Company is no longer in compliance with the Equity Rule, then, notwithstanding Rule 5810(c)(2), the Company will not be permitted to provide the Staff with a plan of compliance with respect to such deficiency and the Staff will not be permitted to grant additional time for the Company to regain compliance with respect to such deficiency, nor will the Company be afforded an applicable cure or compliance period pursuant to Ruel 5810(c)(3). Instead, the Staff will issue a Delist Determination Letter and the Company will have an opportunity to request a new hearing with the initial Panel or a newly convened Hearings Panel if the initial Panel is unavailable. The Company will have the opportunity to respond/present to the Hearings Panel as provided by Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(C) and the Company’s securities may at that time be delisted from Nasdaq.
