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

On August 10, 2016, Function(x) Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that the Staff has determined that the Company violated the director independence requirements of Listing Rule 5605. Listing Rule 5605 requires that companies listed on Nasdaq are required to maintain a majority of independent directors. As of August 1, 2016, Birame Sock, formerly an independent member of the Company’s Board, resigned from the Board when she was appointed the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer. As a result of that resignation, the Company does not meet Nasdaq’s requirement of a majority of independent directors.

The Letter has no current effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock. 

Consistent with the provisions of Listing Rules 5605(b)(1)(A) and 5605(c)(4), Nasdaq has provided the Company a cure period in order to regain compliance as follows:

•
Until the earlier of the Company’s next annual shareholders’ meeting or August 1, 2017; or

•
If the next annual shareholders’ meeting is held before January 30, 2017, then the Company must evidence compliance no later than January 30, 2017.

As reported on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 3, 2016, the Company intends to appoint at least one other independent director timely to meet the requirements.
