As previously disclosed, on July 14, 2016, Cleveland BioLabs, Inc. (the “Company”) received formal notification from NASDAQ, which notification was subsequently revised on July 15, 2016, regarding its non-compliance with the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”). Under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(c)(2)(A), the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors must be comprised of at least three independent directors. As a result of two previously disclosed resignations from the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors, the Company then had only one director who is independent under the NASDAQ Listing Rules serving on the committee.
Also as previously disclosed, on July 21, 2016, the Board appointed Alexander Andryushechkin and Randy Saluck J.D., MBA, as replacement directors to fill the vacancies on the audit committee created by the resignations. As a result of these new appointments, on July 27, 2016, the Company was notified by NASDAQ that it had regained compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(c)(2) for continued listing and that the matter is now closed.
