UNAM Unico American Corp

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

As previously reported, Unico American Corporation (the “Company”) received written notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) on September 22, 2022 indicating that the Company was not in compliance with the requirement of a minimum Market Value of Publicly Held Shares (“MVPHS”) of $5,000,000 for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(C). Nasdaq calculates MVPHS by subtracting from the total shares of common stock outstanding any shares held by officers, directors or any person who beneficially owns more than 10% of the total shares outstanding. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(D), the Company was provided a period of 180 calendar days, or until March 21, 2023, to regain compliance with the minimum MVPHS requirement. To regain compliance, the minimum MVPHS of the Company’s common stock was required to meet or exceed $5,000,000 for at least ten consecutive business days during this 180-calendar day compliance period, which did not occur.

On March 21, 2023, the Company applied to transfer the listing of its common stock, no par value per share, from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market, which has a minimum MVPHS requirement of $1,000,000 (the “Transfer”).

On March 27, 2023, the Company received confirmation that Nasdaq had approved the Transfer, and the Company’s common stock will begin trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market effective with the open of trading on March 29, 2023. The Company’s common stock will continue to trade under the symbol “UNAM”. The Nasdaq Capital Market operates in substantially the same manner as The Nasdaq Global Market, with issuers listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market tier required to meet certain financial and corporate governance requirements to qualify for continued listing.
