LOS ANGELES, Oct. 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- ImmunoCellular Therapeutics, Ltd. ("ImmunoCellular") IMUC today announced that on October 16, 2018, the Company received notice from the NYSE American LLC ("NYSE American" or the "Exchange") that it has determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company's Common Stock IMUC and Listed Common Stock Warrants IMUC from the Exchange. Trading in the Company's securities on NYSE American has been suspended.

The NYSE American determined that the Company is no longer suitable for listing pursuant to Section 1003 of the NYSE American Company Guide, due to the abnormally low trading price of its Common Stock. Under the NYSE delisting procedures, the Company has a right to a review of this determination by a Committee of the Board of Directors of the NYSE. The Company has determined not to seek this review. The NYSE American is expected to apply to the Securities and Exchange Commission to delist the Company's Common Stock and Listed Common Stock Warrants upon completion of all applicable procedures. The Company anticipates its Common Stock will be quoted on the OTC Markets.
