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

As previously announced, in light of the pendency of the consummation of the transactions (the “Closing”) contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of August 6, 2020, as it may be amended from time to time, by and among Third Point Reinsurance Ltd., the Company and Yoga Merger Sub Limited, the Company postponed the 2020 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) and set the date for such meeting to occur on March 31, 2021, in the event that the Closing has not occurred by such date.

On January 7, 2021, the Company received a notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company had not held an annual meeting of shareholders within twelve months of the end of the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5620(a) (the “Rule”) for continued listing.

On January 8, 2021, the Company provided Nasdaq with a plan to regain compliance with the Rule. The plan specified that the Company set the date for the Annual Meeting to occur on March 31, 2021, in the event that the Closing has not occurred by such date.

On January 11, 2021, Nasdaq accepted this plan and granted the Company an extension until March 31, 2021, to allow the Company to hold its Annual Meeting on such date and thereby regain compliance with the Rule in the event that the Closing has not occurred by such date.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
