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

 

As previously disclosed, on October 13, 2022, Pine Island Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that (i) the Company would redeem all of its outstanding shares of Class A common stock that were included in the units issued in its initial public offering, effective as of the close of business on October 28, 2022, because the Company will not consummate an initial business combination within the time period required by its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, and (ii) there will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless. Following such announcement, on October 14, 2022, the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) notified the Company, and publicly announced, that the NYSE determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s warrants from the NYSE and that trading in the Company’s warrants would be suspended immediately, due to trading price levels pursuant to Section 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. As a result of the expected expiration of the warrants described above, the Company does not intend to appeal the NYSE’s determination.
