Item
3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
As
previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
on September 12, 2019, on September 6, 2019, DropCar, Inc. (the “Company”) received notification from The Nasdaq Stock
Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company did not comply with the minimum $1.00 bid price requirement for continued
listing set forth in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Listing Rule”). In accordance with Nasdaq listing rules, the Company
was afforded 180 calendar days (until March 4, 2020) to regain compliance with the Listing Rule.
On
March 5, 2020, the Company received notification from the Listing Qualification Department of Nasdaq that it had not regained
compliance with the Listing Rule. The notification indicated that the Company’s common stock will be delisted from the Nasdaq
Capital Market unless the Company requests an appeal of this determination. The Company intends to request a hearing to appeal
the determination with the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), which will stay the delisting of the Company’s
securities pending the Panel’s decision.
The
Company’s appeal to the Panel will include a plan that sets forth a commitment to consider all available options to regain
compliance with the Listing Rule, including the option to effectuate a reverse stock split upon receipt of stockholder approval,
which the Company intends to seek in connection with the joint proxy statement and consent solicitation statement/prospectus filed
with the SEC on February 14, 2020 in connection with the Company’s previously announced proposed merger with Ayro, Inc.
(“Ayro”) (as described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 20, 2019), in order to bring
its stock price over the $1.00 bid price requirement and to meet the $4.00 bid price initial listing requirement. However, there
can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in regaining compliance with the Listing Rule.
The
Nasdaq notification has no effect at this time, or during the appeal period, on the listing of the Company’s common stock
on Nasdaq.
