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

On December 16, 2019, Frontier Communications Corporation (“Frontier” or the “Company”) received written notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), as the minimum bid price of Frontier’s common stock has been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days.

The notification of noncompliance has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of Frontier’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “FTR”. The Company has 180 days, or until June 15, 2020, to achieve compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. To regain compliance, the minimum bid price of Frontier’s common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days prior to the expiration of the 180-day grace period. The Company’s failure to regain compliance during this period could result in delisting.
