Item 8.01 Other Events.
COMSovereign Holding Corp. (the "Company") did not achieved the 50% quorum
required to hold its 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting")
scheduled for January 18, 2023, at 3:30 p.m., Eastern Time, in a virtual-only
format at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/COMS2022. The Annual Meeting has
been adjourned and rescheduled for Wednesday, February 8, 2023, at 3:30 p.m.,
Eastern Time, in a virtual-only format at
www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/COMS2022.
As previously disclosed, on November 29, 2022, the Company received a
determination from the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "Panel") granting the
Company's request for the continued listing of its common stock on the Capital
Market tier of The Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq"), subject to the Company
evidencing compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price and filing requirements,
as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rules 5550(a)(1) and 5250(c)(1), respectively, on
or before February 2, 2023, and February 24, 2023, respectively, and certain
other conditions.
Because the Company did not reach a quorum, the Annual Meeting could not conduct
business on January 18, 2023, and the vote of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal
(referred to as "Proposal 1") could not proceed in time for compliance with
Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(1) on or
before February 2, 2023. The Panel granted the Company's request for an
extension to obtain stockholder approval of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal on
February 8, 2023, and to demonstrate compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) by
February 24, 2023. There can be no assurances, however, that the Company will be
able to do so.
On January 18, 2023, the Company issued a press release entitled "COMSovereign
Issues CEO Letter Regarding Adjournment of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and
Reminder to Vote." A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to
this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"), or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set
