Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule of Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On August 19, 2019, DropCar, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company no longer complies with the minimum stockholders' equity requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market because the Company's stockholders' equity of $2,466,776, as reported in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, is below the required minimum of $2,500,000, and as of August 15, 2019, the Company does not meet the alternatives of market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations.

In accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company has 45 calendar days, or until October 3, 2019, to submit a plan to regain compliance. If the Company's plan is accepted, Nasdaq may grant the Company an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Letter to evidence compliance.

If the Company's plan to regain compliance with the minimum stockholders' equity standard is not accepted or if it is accepted but the Company does not regain compliance by the end of the extension granted by Nasdaq, or if the Company fails to satisfy another Nasdaq requirement for continued listing, Nasdaq staff could provide notice that the Company's common shares will become subject to delisting. In such event, Nasdaq rules permit the Company to appeal the decision to reject its proposed compliance plan or any delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel. Accordingly, there can be no guarantee that the Company will be able to maintain its Nasdaq listing.
