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

 

As a result of Wilbur H. Gantz’s retirement from Aevi Genomic Medicine, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Board of Directors (the “Board”) and Audit Committee, the Company currently has only two independent directors on its Audit Committee. The Company is in the process of identifying an independent director to be appointed to the Audit Committee. On June 18, 2018, the Company, received a letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company has failed to comply with Listing Rule 5605(c)(2)(A) of the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules, which requires listed companies to maintain an Audit Committee consisting of at least three independent directors. Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company has until the earlier of its next annual meeting of stockholders or June 14, 2019 to identify an additional independent director to be appointed to the Audit Committee.
