Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure
to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
Peregrine Pharmaceuticals,
Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”)
of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) on April 12, 2016 providing notification that, for the previous 30 consecutive
business days, the bid price for the Company’s common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for
continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market under NASDAQ’s Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), requiring a minimum bid price of $1.00
per share (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”).
The notification of noncompliance
has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market. In accordance
with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), if during the 180 calendar days following the date of the notification, or prior to October
10, 2016, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock is at or above $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business
days, but generally no more than 20 consecutive business days, the Staff will provide the Company with written confirmation of
compliance.
If the Company does not
achieve compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by October 10, 2016, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180
calendar days compliance period if the Company meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares
and all other initial listing standards for The NASDAQ Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price Requirement,
and would need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting
a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, if it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency,
or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, the Staff would notify the Company that its securities would be subject to delisting.
In the event of such notification, the Company may appeal the Staff’s determination to delist its securities, but there can
be no assurance the Staff would grant the Company’s request for continued listing.
The Company intends to
monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options to regain compliance
with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement under the NASDAQ Listing Rules.
