Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On August 15, 2012, ZaZa Energy Corporation (the “Company”) received a letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the filing requirements for continued listing under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2012 (the “Form 10-Q”). The NASDAQ letter states that the Company is required to submit, by August 30, 2012, an update to the Company’s original plan to regain compliance with NASDAQ’s filing requirements for continued listing, which plan the Company previously provided to NASDAQ. The NASDAQ notice does not result in a suspension of trading and has no immediate effect on the listing of, or continued admission of the Company’s common stock for trading on, the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Company plans to submit its update to the compliance plan by such date, and anticipates that it will file its Form 10-Q in the near future and that it will fully regain compliance with the NASDAQ continued listing requirements upon such filing of its Form 10-Q.
The Company issued a press release on August 21, 2012 disclosing the Company’s receipt of the notification letter from NASDAQ. A copy of such press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
