Item 3.01.

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

 

On October 6, 2017 the Board of Directors (the “ Board ” ) of Rentech, Inc. (the “ Company ” ) made a determination to delist the Company’s shares of common stock from the NASDAQ Capital Market and transfer the listing of such shares to the OTCQB Market. The Company notified the NASDAQ Stock Market of its intention to voluntarily withdraw the Company ’ s shares of common stock from listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Company intends to file a Form 25, Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ” ), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ” ) on or about October 16, 2017.

 

 The Company anticipates that its shares of common stock will be quoted on the OTCQB market beginning October 16, 2017, and their last trading day on the NASDAQ Capital Market exchange will be October 13, 2017.  The Company can give no assurance that trading in its stock will continue on the OTC markets or on any other securities exchange or quotation medium. The delisting of the shares of common stock from the NASDAQ Capital Market could impair the liquidity and market price of the shares. Additionally, the delisting of the shares of common stock from a national exchange could materially adversely affect the Company ’ s access to capital markets, and any limitation on market liquidity or reduction in the price of the shares as a result of that delisting could adversely affect the Company ’ s ability to raise capital on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.  

 

A copy of the press release concerning the voluntary delisting and move to listing on the OTCQB is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” for purposes of the safe harbor provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s ability to delist its shares of common stock with NASDAQ. Such statements are based on management’s current expectations and involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and performance could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including, without limitation, the risks and uncertainties described in additional detail in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. Forward-looking statements contained in this announcement are made as of this date, and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
