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

As previously disclosed, on May 6, 2019, NantHealth, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”) because the Company’s common stock failed to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was afforded an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until November 4, 2019, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. As the Company has not regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule within such time period, on November 6, 2019, the Company received a written notice from Nasdaq that the Company’s common stock would be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Select Market and suspended at the opening of business on November 15, 2019, unless the Company timely requests a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). In accordance with Nasdaq’s procedures, the Company has appealed Nasdaq’s determination and on November 7, 2019 requested a hearing before the Panel (the “Hearing”) to seek continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. This hearing request automatically stays Nasdaq’s suspension and delisting of the Company’s common stock pending the Panel’s decision. The Company expects the Hearing to be held within 45 days of the Company’s request for the Hearing, pursuant to the Nasdaq Listing Rules. At or prior to the Hearing, the Company intends to present its plans to Nasdaq to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule and request an extension of time so that the Board and management of the Company can effect a reverse stock split at a time that is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
The Company intends to continue to monitor its closing bid price for its common stock and will continue considering all available options to comply with the Minimum Bid Price Rule as may be necessary.
