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

 

On November 7, 2024, Patria Latin American Opportunity Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company’s warrants and units would be subject to suspension and delisting from The Nasdaq Global Market at the opening of business on November 18, 2024 due to the Company’s non-compliance with: (i) in relation to the warrants, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5452(b)(C), which requires the Company to maintain an aggregate market value of its outstanding warrants of at least $1,000,000; and (ii) in relation to the units, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5225(a)(1)(A), which requires that all components of the unit comply with the requirements for continued listing. Accordingly, Nasdaq informed us that a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which will remove the Company’s warrants and units from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market.
