The Notice indicated that the Company should present its views with respect to this additional deficiency to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), which the Company intends to do. The Company expected the Notice, and in June 2023, the Company disclosed to the Panel its plans to file the Form 10-Q by the agreed upon Compliance Date, as described below.
