Item 3.01

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

On July 26, 2022, Qumu Corporation (the “Company”) received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company was not in compliance with the requirement to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the “Bid Price Requirement”), because the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), was below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. The notice provided that the Company had a period of 180 calendar days from the date of the notice, or until January 23, 2023, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement.

On January 24, 2023, Nasdaq staff notified the Company that the Company had not regained compliance with the Bid Price Requirement and was not eligible for a second 180 day extension and therefore subject to delisting and suspension unless the Company requested an appeal of this determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel. On January 27, 2023, the Company appealed the Nasdaq staff’s determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel, which will stay the delisting and suspension of the Common Stock pending a decision by the Nasdaq Hearings Panel.

As previously announced, the Company has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 17, 2022 (as such agreement may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”) with Cosmos Merger Sub Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“Purchaser”) and Enghouse Interactive, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”).

On January 6, 2023, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, Purchase and Parent commenced the offer to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $0.90 per share (the “Offer Price”), in cash, without interest thereon and less any required withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated January 6, 2023 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”) (which, together with the Offer to Purchase, constitute the “Offer”). The Offer is scheduled to expire one minute following 11:59 p.m. (12:00 midnight), New York City Time, on February 6, 2023.

Following the consummation of the Offer and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and in accordance with the relevant portions of the Minnesota Business Corporation Act, Purchaser will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”).

The Company appealed the determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel in order to stay the delisting and suspension of the Common Stock in light of the importance of maintaining listing on Nasdaq during the pendency of the Offer and through to the closing of the Merger. In connection with the closing of the Merger, Parent intends to cause the Company to voluntarily delist the Common Stock from Nasdaq.

If the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are not consummated for any reason, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in any appeal to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel, be able to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement, or maintain compliance with any of the other Nasdaq continued listing requirements in order to maintain its listing on Nasdaq.
