Kaspien Holdings Announces Voluntary Delisting from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and Intent to File Form 25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission On May 22, 2023, Kaspien Holdings Inc. notified The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (‘Nasdaq’) of the company's decision to voluntarily delist its common stock from The Nasdaq Capital Market and its intent to file a Form 25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the ‘SEC’) on or about June 1, 2023. As a result, the Company expects the delisting of its common stock to become effective on or about June 12, 2023. As previously noted on the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 15, 2022 and on the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 8, 2023, the Company had received written notices from Nasdaq that the Company was not in compliance with the minimum bid price and minimum stockholders' equity requirements, respectively, for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. After careful evaluation of the options available to the Company, the Company's board of directors (the ‘Board’) has determined that the voluntary delisting of the Company's common stock from The Nasdaq Capital Market is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Board's decision was based on careful review of several factors, including the likely inability of the Company to regain compliance with the foregoing Nasdaq listing rules and the significant costs associated therewith. In addition, the Board believes a delisting provides the Company and its stockholders lower operating costs and management time commitment for compliance activities. The Company anticipates that its common stock will be quoted on the OTCQB or other market operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. (the ‘OTC’), and it intends to take such actions to enable its common stock to be quoted on the OTCQB or on another OTC market so that a trading market may continue to exist for its common stock. There is no guarantee, however, that a broker will continue to make a market in the common stock and that trading of the common stock will continue on an OTC market or otherwise. At this time, the Company is not taking steps to deregister as a public company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Duyuru • May 10

Receives Non-Compliance Written Notice from Nasdaq As previously noted on the Company's Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 15, 2022, Kaspien Holdings Inc. (the Company") had received written notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market (Nasdaq") that the Company is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), and must regain compliance with that requirement by June 12, 2023. Separately, on May 4, 2023, the Company received written notice from Nasdaq that given the reported stockholders' equity on the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended January 28, 2023, the Company also is not in compliance with the minimum stockholders' equity requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). In accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company has been provided a period of 45 calendar days, or until June 20, 2023, to submit a plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance with the minimum stockholders' equity requirement. If the Company's plan is accepted, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of its letter, or until October 31, 2023, for the Company to evidence compliance. If the Company's plan is not accepted, the Company expects that at that time Nasdaq will provide written notice to the Company that the Company's common stock will be subject to delisting. Neither notice has an immediate impact on the listing of the Company's common stock, which will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company continues to monitor its closing bid price for its common stock and to consider available options to resolve the Company's noncompliance with the minimum bid price requirement and noncompliance with the minimum stockholders' equity requirement.
