AsInternational ~~previously~~Replay ~~disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8~~Number: 1-K412-317-6671 filed by the Company on June 9, 2023, the Company received a letter from the listing qualifications staff (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”) for continued listing.

InReplay accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has 180 calendar days to regain compliance. If, at any time before the end of this first 180-day period, or through December 4, 2023, the closing bid price of the Common Stock closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, the Staff will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the Bid Price Rule.Passcode: 10184146

If the Company does not regain compliance within the allotted compliance periods, including any extensions that may be granted by the Staff, the Staff will issue a Staff Delisting Determination notification. The Company would then be entitled to appeal that determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

The Company and the Board of Directors believe the Reverse Stock Split will help the Company regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with such requirement or maintain its listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
