Item 3.01 Notice of Failure to Satisfy a
Continued Listing Rule.
On January 8, 2019, Zion
Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Zion” or “Company”) received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department
staff (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, for the last 30 consecutive
trading days prior to the date of the letter, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock was below the $1.00 per
share minimum required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1).
The
letter from Nasdaq has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market or on
the trading of the Company’s common stock.
In accordance with Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has 180 calendar days, or until July 8, 2019,
to
regain compliance with the minimum bid price rule.
If at any time during this 180-day period the closing bid price of the
Company’s common stock is at least $1 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days
(unless
the Staff exercises its discretion to extend such 10-day period)
, the Staff will provide the Company with written confirmation
of compliance with the minimum bid price rule and the matter will be closed.
If
the Company does not regain compliance by July 8, 2019, the Company may transfer from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Nasdaq Capital
Market and may be eligible for an additional compliance period of 180 calendar days. To qualify for the additional compliance period,
the Company would have to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other requirements
for initial listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (except for the bid price requirement), and provide written notice to Nasdaq of
its intention to cure the bid price deficiency during the additional 180-day compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split,
if necessary.
The
Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock and consider its available options if the
closing bid price of the Company’s common stock remains below $1.00 per share.
