Proxy Statement Form 8 K

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

On October 9, 2024, Microbot Medical Inc. (the "Company") received a deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications department (the "Staff") of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC ("Nasdaq"), notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Minimum Bid Price Requirement") for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, as the minimum bid price of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market was below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days, from August 26, 2024 to October 7, 2024.

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) (the "Compliance Period Rule"), the Company has a period of 180 calendar days, or until April 7, 2025 (the "Compliance Date"), to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If, at any time before the Compliance Date, the closing bid price of the Company's common stock is at least $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, the Staff will provide a written confirmation to the Company that it has regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.

If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by the Compliance Date, the Company may be eligible for additional time. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet 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 will 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. If the Company meets these requirements, Nasdaq will inform the Company that it has been granted an additional 180 calendar days. However, if it appears to Nasdaq that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq will provide notice that its securities will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the Staff's delisting determination to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the "Panel") pursuant to the procedures set forth in the applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules. However, there can be no assurance that, if the Company receives a delisting notice and appeals the delisting determination by the Staff to the Panel, such appeal would be successful.

Additionally, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, or will otherwise be compliant with other Nasdaq Listing Rules.
