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

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing. On August 12, 2025, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") notifying the Company that the Nasdaq Staff has determined that the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock") will be delisted from the Nasdaq in accordance with Listing Rules 5101, 5110(b), and IM-5101-1 as a result of the Company's commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases.. The Company does not intend to appeal this determination. Trading of the Company's Common Stock will be suspended at the opening of business on August 19, 2025, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which will remove the Company's Common Stock from listing and registration on Nasdaq. Cautionary Note Regarding the Chapter 11 Cases The Company cautions that trading in the Company's common stock during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases is highly speculative, poses substantial risks, and is subject to potential restrictions imposed by the Bankruptcy Court. Trading prices for the Company's common stock may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by holders of the Company's common stock in the Chapter 11 Cases. The Company expects that holders of the Company's common stock will not receive distributions in the Chapter 11 Cases, and that the equity will be canceled under a chapter 11 plan. The Company expects that its common stock will be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Market and begin trading in the over-the-counter (OTC) market. Accordingly, the Company urges caution with respect to existing and future investments in its common stock.
