Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As reported by Virpax Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) in its Form 12b-25 Notification of Late Filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 15, 2023 (the “Form 12b-25”), the Company was unable to file its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 (the “Third Quarter 2023 Form 10-Q”) within the prescribed time period and will be unable to do so within the extension period.
On November 16, 2023, the Company received a letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with the continued listing requirements of NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) because its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 had not yet been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) requires the Company to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the SEC. Under the Nasdaq rules, the Company now has 60 calendar days (until January 16, 2024) to submit a plan to regain compliance. If Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, Nasdaq can grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the Quarterly Report’s original due date, which 180-day period would end on May 13, 2024, to regain compliance.
The notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s securities on Nasdaq. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the listing standards discussed above.

On November 17, 2023, the Company issued a press release disclosing the foregoing. A copy of the press release is furnished with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference into this Item 7.01.

The press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K includes “safe harbor” language pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended, indicating that certain statements contained therein are “forward-looking” rather than historical.

Virpax Pharmaceuticals Announces Notification from Nasdaq Related to Delayed Form 10-Q Filing
BERWYN, PA – November 17, 2023 — Virpax® Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Virpax” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: VRPX), a company specializing in developing non-addictive products for pain management, post-traumatic stress disorder, central nervous system (CNS) disorders and anti-viral barriers, today announced that that it received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Staff of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) on November 16, 2023 stating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended, September 30, 2023 (the “Quarterly Report”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
On November 15, 2023, Virpax filed a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 indicating that the filing of the Quarterly Report would be delayed because the Company requires additional information necessary to complete the Quarterly Report. Virpax continues to evaluate the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware’s decision delivered on September 1, 2023, regarding litigation filed by Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc. and Scilex Pharmaceuticals Inc. against Anthony P. Mack and the Registrant.
The Company is working diligently to finalize and file the Quarterly Report.
About Virpax Pharmaceuticals
Virpax is developing branded, non-addictive pain management products candidates using its proprietary technologies to optimize and target drug delivery. Virpax is initially seeking FDA approval for two prescription drug candidates that employ two different patented drug delivery platforms. Probudur™ is a single injection liposomal bupivacaine formulation being developed to manage post-operative pain and Envelta™ is an intranasal molecular envelope enkephalin formulation being developed to manage acute and chronic pain, including pain associated with cancer. Virpax is also using its intranasal Molecular Envelope Technology (MET) to develop two other product candidates. PES200 is a product candidate being developed to manage post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and NobrXiol™ is a product candidate being developed for the nasal delivery of a pharmaceutical-grade cannabidiol (CBD) for the management of rare pediatric epilepsy. Virpax has competitive cooperative research and development agreements (CRADAs) for all three of its prescription drug candidates, two with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and one with the Department of Defense (DOD). Virpax is also seeking approval of two nonprescription product candidates: AnQlar™, which is being developed to inhibit viral replication caused by influenza or SARS-CoV-2, and Epoladerm™, which is a topical diclofenac spray film formulation being developed to manage pain associated with osteoarthritis.
