Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a
Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On April 12, 2021, the Acting Director of the Division of Corporation
Finance and Acting Chief Accountant of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
together issued a statement regarding the accounting and reporting considerations for warrants issued by special purpose acquisition
companies entitled “Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition
Companies (‘SPACs’)” (the “SEC Staff Statement”). As previously disclosed in the Notification of Late Filing
on Form 12b-25, filed by HPX Corp. (the “Company”) with the SEC on May 18, 2021, given the scope of the process for determining
the appropriate accounting treatment of the its outstanding warrants in accordance with the SEC Staff Statement and Accounting Standards
Codification (“ASC”) 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in an Entities Own Equity, the Company was unable to complete
and file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021 (the “Form 10-Q”) by the required due
date without unreasonable effort and expense.
On May 25, 2021, the Company received a notice (the “Notice”)
from the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”) indicating that, as a result of not having timely filed the Form 10-Q with
the SEC, the Company is not in compliance with Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual (the “Listing Rule”). The
Listing Rule requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic reports with the SEC.
The Notice indicated that the Company can regain compliance with the
Exchange’s listing standards at any time prior to November 24, 2021 by filing the Form 10-Q. If the Company fails to file the Form
10-Q by such date, the Exchange may grant, at its sole discretion, an extension for the Company to regain compliance, depending on the
specific circumstances. The Notice also stated that the Exchange may nevertheless commence delisting proceedings at any time if it deems
that the circumstances warrant.
While the Company can provide no assurances as to timing, the Company
plans to file the Form 10-Q as soon as practicably possible, and no later than November 24, 2021, and regaining compliance with the Listing
Rule.
