today announced that on December 14, 2023, it received a written notification from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") that the Company is not in compliance with the requirement to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share, as set
forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), because the closing bid price of the Company's ordinary shares (the "Ordinary Shares") was below $1.00 per share for 31 consecutive business days. The notification letter does not result in the immediate
delisting of the Company's Ordinary Shares and has no current immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq.

or until June 11, 2024, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. During this period, the Company's Ordinary Shares will continue to trade on Nasdaq. If at any time before June 11, 2024, the bid price of the Company's Ordinary
Shares closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive trading days, Nasdaq will provide written confirmation of compliance and this matter will be closed. In the event the Company does not regain compliance by June 11, 2024,
subject to the determination by the staff of Nasdaq, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-day compliance period.
