Listing. </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On April&nbsp;2, 2015, the staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market (&#147;Nasdaq&#148;) notified OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. (the
&#147;Company&#148;) that the bid price of its common stock had closed at less than $1 per share over the previous 30 consecutive business days, and, as a result, did not comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the &#147;Rule&#148;). In
accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until September&nbsp;29, 2015, to regain compliance with the Rule. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On October&nbsp;2, 2015, the Company received a letter from the staff at Nasdaq notifying the Company that it had not regained compliance with the Rule and
was not eligible for a second 180 day period. Specifically, Nasdaq further informed the Company that it was not able to comply with the stockholders&#146; equity initial listing requirement for The Nasdaq Capital Market. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Based on the foregoing, unless the Company requests an appeal of Nasdaq&#146;s determination, the Company&#146;s common stock will be scheduled for delisting
from The Nasdaq Capital Market. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company plans to appeal Nasdaq&#146;s determination. The Company plans to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing
requirements by effecting a reverse stock split. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company&#146;s appeal will stay the delisting of the Company&#146;s common stock. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">There can be no assurance that the Company&#146;s appeal will be successful, that any plan to be submitted by the Company will be accepted, or that the Company
will be able to regain or maintain compliance with the requirements for continued listing under the Nasdaq Listing Rules. There can be no assurance that the Company will maintain its Nasdaq listing. </P>
