If the answer to question 1 is “yes”: a) Is the Entity relying on Listing Rule 3.1A not to announce that information under Listing Rule 3.1?

Accordingly, if the answer to this question is “yes”, you need to contact us immediately to discuss the situation. b) Can an announcement be made immediately? Please note, if the answer to this question is “no”, you need to contact us immediately to discuss requesting a trading halt (see below). c) If an announcement cannot be made immediately, why not and when is it expected that an announcemant will be made? 3.
