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

On January 3, 2017, Boulevard Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”) received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company has not yet held an annual meeting of shareholders within 12 months of the end of the Company’s fiscal year end. As a result, the Company does not comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5620(a) (the “Annual Meeting Rule”). The Notice is only a notification of deficiency, not of imminent delisting, and has no current effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s securities on Nasdaq.

The Notice states that, under Nasdaq rules, the Company has 45 calendar days to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Annual Meeting Rule. The Company intends to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Annual Meeting Rule within the required timeframe. If Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, Nasdaq may grant the Company an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the fiscal year end, or until June 29, 2017, to regain compliance with the Annual Meeting Rule. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company’s plan, the Company will have the opportunity to appeal the decision in front of a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
