(a)

On September 26, 2018, SenesTech, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the listing qualifications staff (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) providing notification that the bid price for the Company’s common stock had closed below $1.00 per share for the previous 30 consecutive business days and the Company’s common stock no longer meets the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until March 25, 2019, to regain compliance. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock must be $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days at any time before March 25, 2019.

If the Company does not regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2) by March 25, 2019, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period. To qualify, the Company would need to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the minimum bid price requirement, and would need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, if it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq would notify the Company that its securities would be subject to delisting. In the event of such notification, the Company may appeal the Staff’s determination to delist its securities, but there can be no assurance the Staff would grant the Company’s request for continued listing.

The Nasdaq notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company intends to actively monitor the bid price of its common stock and its minimum market value of listed securities and will consider options available to it to achieve compliance with the Nasdaq listing rules, including effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the minimum bid pricerequirement or will otherwise be in compliance with the other listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market.
