Item 3.01.
Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
 
On November 1, 2023, RMG Acquisition Corp. III (the “Company”) was notified by the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that, following its determination that the Company did not meet the terms of an extension cure period provided under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(4), the Staff had determined to initiate procedures to delist the Company’s securities due to the Company’s non-compliance with the continued listing requirements as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(b)(1) regarding the composition of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) because a majority of the Board was not comprised of independent directors.
 
As a result of the below-reported resignation of a member of the Board, the Company returned to compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements. On November 7, 2023, the Nasdaq issued a letter to the Company confirming that the Company is in compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements and that it has terminated its delisting procedures against the Company.
