Item 8.01 Other Events

As previously disclosed, on September 24, 2020, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC, or Nasdaq, indicating that, based on the closing bid price for the previous 30 consecutive business day, the listing of the Company's ordinary shares was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share (the "Bid Price Rule"). Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company had a period of 180 calendar days, or until March 23, 2021, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. On January 22, 2021, the Company received formal notification from Nasdaq confirming that for the period from January 7 to January 21, 2021 the closing bid price

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

of the Company's ordinary shares had been $1.00 per share or greater. Accordingly, the Company has regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule and Nasdaq confirmed that the matter is now closed.

On January 25, 2021, the Company issued a press release announcing that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA, had accepted for review a new drug application for sulopenem etzadroxil/probenecid, or oral sulopenem, for the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infections in patients with a quinolone non-susceptible pathogen. The FDA has designated the application as a priority review and consequently assigned a PDUFA (Prescription Drug User Fee Act) goal date for completion of the review of oral sulopenem of July 25, 2021.

The full text of the press release issued in connection with this announcement is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
