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

 

As previously reported by Pivotal Investment Corporation III (the “Company”), on February 28, 2023, the staff of NYSE Regulation (the “Staff”), on behalf of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), commenced proceedings to delist the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and units, each consisting of one share of Class A Common Stock and one-fifth of one redeemable warrant (the “Units”), each whole warrant exercisable for one share of Class A Common Stock of the Company (the “Warrants”), from the NYSE pursuant to Section 802.01B of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual because the Company had fallen below the NYSE’s continued listing standard requiring a listed acquisition company to maintain an average aggregate global market capitalization attributable to its publicly-held shares over a consecutive 30 trading day period of at least $40,000,000. Trading in the Class A Common Stock and Units on the NYSE were suspended after the market close on February 28, 2023. Effective as of and since March 1, 2023, the Class A Common Stock and Units have been quoted and traded in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market under the ticker symbols “PICC” and “PICCU,” respectively.

 

The Company timely exercised its right to a review of the Staff’s determination by a committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the NYSE, and a hearing regarding the Company’s continued listing was held on July 13, 2023.

 

On July 21, 2023, the NYSE Office of General Counsel notified the Company that the Committee had determined to affirm the Staff’s decision to delist the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Units from the NYSE.

 

On July 21, 2023, the Staff filed a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to remove the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Units from listing and registration on the NYSE. The delisting will be effective 10 days following the date the Form 25 was filed.

 

The Company’s Class A Common Stock and Units will continue to trade on the OTC marketplaces following the delisting.

 

The Company intends to seek a listing of its securities on the Nasdaq Stock Market prior to or in connection with the consummation of any business combination the Company may seek to consummate. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in having its securities listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market or another national securities exchange.
