Motorsport Games previously notified Nasdaq on November 11, 2022 that it was no longer in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(4) requiring minimum of 500,000 publicly held shares, as defined in the Nasdaq Listing Rules, and (ii) Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(b)(1), which requires a majority of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) to be comprised of independent directors as defined in Rule 5605(a)(2), and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(2), which requires the audit committee of the Board to consist of at least 3 independent directors meeting the heightened independence standards for audit committee members.
As previously disclosed by the Company, as a result of the issuances by the Company to Alumni Capital LP of the Company’s Class A common stock pursuant to the previously reported purchase agreement with Alumni Capital LP, the Company’s publicly held shares exceeded 500,000 shares.
