On April 17, 2020, China Ceramics Co. Ltd. (the “Company” or “CCCL”) received a notification from the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) informing the Company that as a part of and in compliance with the most recently implemented NASDAQ initiative (effective as of April 16, 2020) to mitigate current instability of world financial markets, the Staff has determined to toll the compliance periods for bid price and market value of publicly held shares continued listing requirements (together, the “Price-based Requirements”) through June 30, 2020. As a result, for the duration of the tolling period, the Company will remain at the same stage of the compliance process and will not be subject to delisting for these concerns. Starting on July 1, 2020, the Company will receive the balance of the remaining compliance period in effect at the start of the tolling period to regain compliance. Specifically, following this tolling relief, the Company will have 81 calendar days from July 1, 2020, or until September 21, 2020, to regain compliance with the Price-based Requirements. This can be accomplished in the event the bid price of the Company’s shares close at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days prior to that date. At the February 21, 2020 Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved, among others, a proposal to amend the Company's Memorandum of Association to effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding the Company’s common shares, at one of several split ratios, to be determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, prior to the one-year anniversary of this Annual Meeting, for the purposes of regaining compliance with the NASDAQ continued listing requirements. The Company continues to monitor market conditions to determine if, when or how to exercise such authority.
