CONTENTS

 

On May 23, 2022, Brooge Energy Limited (the “Company”) received a notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the Nasdaq’s requirements under the timely filing criteria pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of the Company not having been able to timely file its annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “2021 Form 20-F”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) requires timely filing of all required periodic reports with the SEC on or prior to the due date thereof or by the extended filing due date provided by Rule 12b-25.

 

The Company has not been able to file the 2021 Form 20-F due to an ongoing non-public examination being conducted by the SEC regarding the financial statements of the Company. The Company is cooperating with the SEC fully.

 

Consistent with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), and as set forth in the notice, the Company has 60 calendar days to submit a plan to regain compliance and if accepted, Nasdaq will grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the Filing’s due date, or until October 28, 2022, to regain compliance.

 

The Company is making all efforts to file the 2021 Form 20-F as soon as possible.
