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

On May 28, 2021, Duddell Street Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") received a notification letter from the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq") indicating that it is not in compliance with Section 5250(c)(1) of the Nasdaq Rules and Regulations as a result of its failure to timely file the Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021 (the "Form 10-Q").

As previously disclosed in the Form 12b-25 filed by the Company on May 17, 2021, on April 12, 2021, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued a public statement entitled "Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies ("SPACs")" (the "Statement"), which clarified guidance for all SPAC-related companies regarding the accounting and reporting for their warrants. The immediacy of the effective date of the new guidance set forth in the Statement has resulted in a significant number of SPACs re-evaluating the accounting treatment for their warrants with their professional advisors, including auditors and other advisors responsible for assisting SPACs in the preparation of financial statements. The Company is reviewing the impacts of the Statement, together with its professional advisors, on the Company's unaudited financial statements for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021. The foregoing, as well as the time and dedication of resources needed to prepare the Form 10-Q, in turn, has resulted in the Company's delay in filing its Form 10-Q with the SEC by the prescribed deadline.

Under Nasdaq's rules, the Company has 60 calendar days from the date of the notification letter to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance. If Nasdaq accepts the Company's plan, then Nasdaq may grant the Company up to 180 days from the prescribed due date for filing the Form 10-Q to regain compliance. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company's plan, then the Company will have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a Nasdaq hearings panel. The Company intends to file its 10-Q as promptly as practicable to cure the deficiency outlined in the letter from Nasdaq.

As required by the Nasdaq rules, on June 1, 2021, the Company issued a press release regarding the matters described in this Item 3.01. A copy of the press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.
