Failure to Satisfy Listing Rule Form 8 K

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

On November 21, 2024, Viracta Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company") received a written notice (the "Notice") from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") notifying the Company that its amount of stockholders' equity has fallen below the $2,500,000 minimum requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the "Minimum Stockholder Equity Requirement"). Nasdaq's determination was based upon the Company's stockholders' equity as reported in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2024. The Notice also noted that the Company does not meet the alternatives of market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations.

As stated in the Notice, the Company has until January 6, 2025 to provide Nasdaq with a plan to achieve and sustain compliance with the Minimum Stockholder Equity Requirement (the "Compliance Plan"). If Nasdaq accepts the Compliance Plan, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice to evidence compliance with the Minimum Stockholder Equity Requirement. If Nasdaq does not accept the Compliance Plan, then the Nasdaq staff will provide written notification to the Company that its common stock will be subject to delisting. The Company would then be entitled to appeal that determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel, which would stay all further actions.

The Company intends to submit the Compliance Plan to Nasdaq, within the required time period. There can be no assurance that Nasdaq will accept the Compliance Plan, the Company will be able to regain compliance with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) or maintain compliance with any other Nasdaq requirement in the future.

The Company, by filing this Form 8-K, discloses its receipt of the notification from Nasdaq in accordance with Listing Rule 5810(b).
