Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On February 27, 2024, Twelve Seas Investment Company II, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), received a notice (the “Notice”) from the staff (the “Staff”) of the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company has failed to comply with Nasdaq IM-5101-2, which requires that a special purpose acquisition company must complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement.

Pursuant to the Notice, unless the Company timely requests a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), the Company’s securities would be subject to suspension and delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market at the opening of business on March 7, 2024, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which will remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on Nasdaq.

The Company intends to timely request a hearing before the Panel to appeal the Notice received on February 27, 2024. A hearing request will stay the suspension of trading on the Company’s securities, and the Company’s securities will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market until the hearing process concludes and the Panel issues a written decision.

There can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for a suspension of delisting or continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
