| Item 3.01 | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing. |
As previously reported, on February 16, 2022,
Marker Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”)
that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), as the minimum bid price of the Company’s
common stock had been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. The Company was granted 180 calendar days, or
until August 15, 2022, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. On August 16, 2022, Nasdaq approved the
Company’s application to transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market, effective at the opening of business on August 18, 2022, and
notified the Company that it had been granted an additional 180-calendar day compliance period, or until February 13, 2023, to regain
compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. As part of the transfer, the Company provided notice to Nasdaq that it intended to
cure the bid price deficiency by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary, prior to the end of the compliance period. The Company’s
failure to regain compliance during this period could result in delisting, which the Company could appeal to a Nasdaq hearings panel.
The Company intends to actively monitor the bid
price of its common stock and will consider available options, including a reverse stock split, to regain compliance with the listing
requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) or
will otherwise be in compliance with other Nasdaq listing criteria.
