(the “Registrant”) pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, on The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC commencing on or about May 21, 2018. The Common Stock has been approved for listing on The NASDAQ Global Market of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC under the symbol “EXPI.”

A description of the Common Stock to be registered hereunder is set forth under the caption “Description of Securities” in the Registrant’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 2, 2013, and such description is incorporated by reference herein. On April 28, 2016, the Registrant filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) with the Delaware Secretary of State to effect a name change of the Registrant from “eXp Realty International Corporation” to “eXp World Holdings, Inc.” and to reduce the number of authorized shares of common stock from 7,700,000,000 to 220,000,000. The effective date of the Amendment was May 10, 2016. A copy and description of the Amendment is included in the Registrant’s Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 13, 2016, and is incorporated herein by reference.
