Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On October 18, 2023, the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) notified Fusion Acquisition Corp. II, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and publicly announced, that the staff of NYSE Regulation determined to suspend trading immediately and commence proceedings to delist each of (i) the Company’s units, each consisting of one share of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant, listed to trade on the NYSE under the symbol “FSNB.U” (the Units”) and (ii) the Class A Common Stock (together with the Units, the “Company Securities”), listed to trade on the NYSE under the symbol “FSNB.”
The notification states that NYSE Regulation reached its determination 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 thirty-trading day period of at least $40 million.
The notification further states that the Company has a right to a review of NYSE Regulation’s determination by a Committee of the Board of Directors of the NYSE, and that the NYSE will apply to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to delist the Company Securities upon completion of all application procedures, including any appeal by the Company of NYSE Regulation’s determination. The Company will consider all of its options, including its option to pursue a review, in responding to the notification.
The Company anticipates that the Company Securities may be traded over-the-counter following the suspension in trading of the Company Securities on the NYSE.
