03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year. On March 25, 2024, Volcon, Inc. (the "Company") filed an amendment (the "Amendment") to the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to which the Company previously issued certain shares of Series A convertible preferred stock (the "Preferred Stock") on March 3, 2024. Pursuant to the Amendment, which was approved by a majority of the holders of the Preferred Stock, (i) the voting rights of the Preferred Stock were modified such that the holders right to vote the Preferred Stock with the Company's common stock on an as-converted basis was limited to an assumed conversion price of the greater of the conversion price ("Conversion Price") of the Preferred Stock or $0.98 per share; (ii) to the extent the Conversion Price was adjusted in the future, the floor price was modified to be $0.98 per share prior to the receipt of shareholder approval and $0.50 per share after receipt of such approval; and (iii) the holders right to require the Company to redeem the Preferred Stock on a change of control transaction was eliminated. The foregoing description of the form of certificate of designation for the Preferred Stock is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the document, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein..
01. Other Events
Item 8.01. Other Events. As previously disclosed, the Company was notified by the Listing Qualifications Department (the "Staff") of the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") that the market value of its listed securities had been below the minimum $35,000,000 required for continued listing as set forth in Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) (the "Rule") for the previous 30 consecutive trading days. In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until January 2, 2024, to regain compliance with the Rule, which provides for an alternative compliance alternative that requires $2.5 million in stockholders' equity. As a result of the exchange offer described in the Company's Form 8-K filed March 4, 2024, as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company believes it has stockholders' equity above the $2.5 million requirement. Until Nasdaq has reached a final determination that the Company has regained compliance with all of the applicable continued listing requirements, there can be no assurances regarding the continued listing of the Company's common stock on Nasdaq and the Company could be subject to delisting.
