Other Information.

 

On February 2, 2015, Collabrium Japan Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) received a notice from the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) indicating that the Panel has determined to delist the Company’s securities from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”), effective at the open of business on February 4, 2015. After such time, the Company expects that its ordinary shares, warrants and units will continue to trade over-the-counter.

 

As previously disclosed, on August 28, 2014, the Nasdaq staff notified the Company that it had determined to delist the Company’s securities for failure to comply with Listing Rule 5550(a)(3), which requires that the Company have at least 300 public holders for continued listing on Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company requested that the Panel review the Nasdaq staff’s determination and a hearing was held before the Panel on October 16, 2014. The Panel initially determined on November 12, 2014 to continue the listing of the Company’s securities on Nasdaq. However, the Panel’s initial decision was subject to certain conditions, including that, on or before February 24, 2015, the Company complete an initial business combination. In making its subsequent determination on February 2, 2015 to delist the Company’s securities from Nasdaq, the Panel concluded that it was improbable that the Company would be able to complete a business combination within the allotted time.

 

The Company does not intend to appeal the Panel’s decision. Trading in the Company’s securities on Nasdaq will be suspended as of the open of business on February 4, 2015. Nasdaq will complete the delisting by filing a Form 25-NSE with the Securities and Exchange Commission after all applicable appeal periods have lapsed.

 

A copy of the press release issued by the Company announcing the Panel’s decision is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K.
