Failure to Satisfy Listing Rule Form 8 K

On September 25, 2023, Traws Pharma, Inc. (the "Company") received a letter from The Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq") indicating that the Company has failed to comply with the minimum bid price requirement of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requires that companies listed on Nasdaq maintain a minimum closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share.

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company had a 180 calendar day grace period, or until March 25, 2024, to regain compliance by meeting the continued listing standard. The continued listing standard will be met if the Company's common stock has a minimum closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during the 180 calendar day grace period.

The Company did not regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement by March 25, 2024. On March 27, 2024, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq granting the Company a second 180 calendar day period to regain compliance under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), or until September 23, 2024. Their determination to grant the second compliance period was based on the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, except for the minimum bid price requirement, and its notification to Nasdaq of its intention to cure the minimum bid price deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.

On September 24, 2024, the Company received a letter from the Nasdaq Staff (the "Staff") stating that the Company had not been able to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, and that the Staff had determined to seek to delist the Company's securities from Nasdaq unless the Company requests a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "Nasdaq Panel") by October 1, 2024.

Accordingly, the Company intends to request a hearing before the Nasdaq Panel to present its plan to regain compliance. The hearing request will stay any suspension or delisting action pending the hearing and the expiration of any additional extension period granted by the Nasdaq Panel following the hearing.

While the Company's bid price is currently trading above the $1 minimum bid price, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement or will otherwise be in compliance with other Nasdaq listing criteria.
