**Item 8.01 Other Events.**

On February 16, 2023, Revelation Biosciences, Inc. (the "Company") received formal notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") stating that the Company's common stock will continue to be listed and traded on Nasdaq, due to the Company having regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement and minimum stockholders' equity requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rules 5550(a)(2) and 5550(b)(1), respectively, and all applicable listing standards.

As previously reported in 2022, Nasdaq issued delist letters based on the Company's non-compliance with the bid price and stockholders' equity requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rules 5550(a)(2) and 5550(b)(1), respectively. The Company's compliance plan was approved by a NASDAQ hearing panel giving the Company until April 18, 2023 to regain compliance. To regain compliance with the stockholders' equity requirement, the Company must have achieved stockholders' equity of at least $2.5 million and demonstrated its ability to sustain compliance with that requirement. In order to demonstrate compliance with the $1.00 bid price requirement, the Company must have demonstrated compliance for a minimum of ten consecutive business days (Nasdaq has the discretion to monitor for bid price compliance as long as 20 consecutive business days).

Also as previously reported on February 13, 2023, the Company closed a Public Offering on February 13, 2023, resulting in estimated net cash proceeds of approximately $14.1 million after accounting for estimated expenses incurred in connection with the Public Offering. As a result, the Listing Qualifications staff determined that Company has regained compliance with the minimum equity requirement. The staff also determined as of February 15, 2023, the Company has evidenced compliance with the $1.00 per share price requirement having traded for 11 consecutive trading days above $1.00.
