Item 3.01.

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

On July 3, 2018, NanoViricides, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing requirements set forth in Part 8 of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”). The NYSE noted that the Company is not in compliance with Section 803(B)(2)(a) of the Company Guide in that it no longer has at least three members on the audit committee, effective as of June 29, 2018 when Dr. Mukund Kulkarni advised the Company that he resigned as a member of its audit committee.

The NYSE informed the Company that, under the NYSE's rules, the Company will have until the earlier of its next annual meeting or one year from the occurrence of the event that caused the failure to comply with the audit committee composition requirements, provided, however, that if the annual shareholders’ meeting occurs no later than 180 days following the event that caused the failure to comply with these requirements, the Company shall instead have 180 days from such event to regain compliance.

Under the NYSE's rules, the Company will have until the earlier of its next annual meeting or one year from the occurrence of the event that caused the failure to comply with the board of directors composition requirements, provided, however, that if the annual shareholders’ meeting occurs no later than 180 days following the event that caused the failure to comply with these requirements, the Company shall instead have 180 days from such event to regain compliance.

On July 10, 2018, Dr. Kulkarni advised the Company that he rescinded his resignation as a member of the audit committee and the Company accepted same. Dr. Kulkarni rescinded his resignation from the Audit Committee subsequent to Dr. Boniuk’s resignation as a Director and from all committees of the Board of Directors.

Item 5.02.

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers.

On July 10, 2018, Dr. Milton Boniuk resigned as a Director of the Company and as a member of its audit, compensation and nominating committees. The reasons for Dr. Boniuk’s resignation are set forth in the letter attached hereto as Exhibit 17.1 hereto. The Company disputes several assertions in Dr. Boniuk’s letter as being not factual and inaccurate. The Company agrees that Dr. Boniuk resigned because of differences with other members of the Board of Directors and with the Company’s Management Team.
