Item 8.01 Other Events
As
previously disclosed by Alberton Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) in its Current Report on Form 8-K dated September
4, 2020, the Company was notified by the Listing Qualifications Department of The NASDAQ Stock Market (”Nasdaq”) that
it did not comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(3), which requires, among other requirements, that companies listed on the Nasdaq
Capital Market have at least 300 public holders for continued listing (the “Minimum Public Holders Rule”). On February
18, 2021, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq, advising the Company that the Company had regained compliance with the Minimum
Public Holders Rule based on the Company’s submissions to Nasdaq of shareholder records dated January 20, 2021.
Also as previously reported,
the Company has also been notified by Nasdaq that the Company no longer complies with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5620(a) due to the Company’s
failure to hold an annual meeting of shareholders within twelve months of the end of the Company’s fiscal year ended December
31, 2019. The Company has submitted to Nasdaq a plan for compliance with the stockholder meeting rule.
On February 22, 2021, the
Company issued a press release announcing that the Company has regained compliance with the Minimum Public Holders Rule, a copy
of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
