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

On June 28, 2023, Tattooed Chef, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that the closing bid price of its common stock (the “Common Stock”) for the last 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the notice failed to comply with the $1.00 per share minimum bid price required for continued listing on Nasdaq under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The notice has no immediate effect on the Common Stock listing or trading on Nasdaq.

Nasdaq indicated that the Company will be provided with a compliance period of 180 calendar days. The date by which the Company must gain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement is December 26, 2023 (the “Compliance Date”) pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A). If at any time before the Compliance Date, the closing bid price of the Common Stock is at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the minimum bid requirement.

If the Company does not regain compliance by the Compliance Date, it may be eligible for an additional grace period, provided it meets the applicable market value of publicly held shares requirement for continued listing, and all other applicable Nasdaq standards for initial listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of bid price.

The Company intends to actively monitor the bid price for its common stock between now and the Compliance Date, and will consider available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement, but has not yet determined to take any other action in response to the notice.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On June 30, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing, among other things, that the Company and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries intend to file a voluntary petition for a Chapter 11 bankruptcy in early July 2023 in order to implement a financial restructuring. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report and is hereby incorporated by reference.
