Just Energy Announces Toronto Stock Exchange and New York Stock Exchange have Commenced Delisting Proceedings
March 10 2021 - 5:24PM
Just Energy Group Inc. (“Just Energy” or the “Company”) (TSX:JE;
NYSE:JE), a retail energy provider specializing in electricity and
natural gas commodities and bringing energy efficient solutions and
renewable energy options to customers, today announced that it has
received notice from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) that a
meeting of the Continued Listing Committee of the TSX is scheduled
to be held on March 15, 2021 to consider whether or not to delist
the securities of the Company from the TSX.
The Company has also received notice from the
New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that the staff of NYSE
Regulation has determined to commence proceedings to delist Just
Energy’s shares from the NYSE. The staff of NYSE Regulation has
determined that the Company is no longer suitable for listing due
to receiving creditor protection via an Initial Order under the
Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act from the Ontario Superior
Court of Justice (Commercial List) and under Chapter 15 of the
Bankruptcy Code in the United States. The Company has a right to a
review of this determination by a Committee of the Board of
Directors of the NYSE (the “Committee”). The NYSE will announce a
suspension date and suspend trading at such time as (i) the Company
does not request a review by the Committee within 10 business days
of the NYSE notice to the Company, (ii) the Company determines that
it does not intend to appeal, (iii) the subsequent review of the
Committee determines that the Company should be suspended, or (iv)
there are other material developments. After the suspension
announcement, the NYSE would then apply to the Securities and
Exchange Commission to delist the shares of Just Energy. If the
Company’s shares are delisted from the NYSE, they will commence
trading on the OTC Pink Market in the United States.
