Other Events
.
As previously disclosed, Osiris Therapeutics, Inc. (the Company) participated in a hearing before a NASDAQ Hearings Panel (the Hearings Panel) on November 10, 2015 in connection with the Companys late filings and the Companys anticipated financial restatement relating to prior periods. At the hearing, the Company requested that the Hearings Panel grant the Company additional time to file its delinquent reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) and regain compliance with NASDAQs continued listing requirements.
On December 1, 2016, the Company received a decision letter from NASDAQs Office of General Counsel stating that the Hearings Panel has granted the Companys request and, accordingly, the Companys common stock will continue to trade on the NASDAQ Stock Market provided that the Company becomes current in its periodic filings with the SEC on or before March 10, 2017. The letter stated that March 10, 2017 represents the full extent of the Hearing Panels discretion to grant continued listing while the Company is non-compliant.
On December 2, 2016, the Company issued a press release regarding the foregoing matters. A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
