Pursuant to the Company's second amended joint chapter 11 plan of

Meeting in order to satisfy the listing requirement of NASDAQ Listing Rule 5620(a). On January 2, 2019, the Company received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that it no
longer complies with such listing requirement due to the Company's failure to hold an annual meeting of shareholders within twelve months of the end of the Company's fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. However, NASDAQ's notice
has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's common shares, no par value, which will continue to trade on The NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol "UPL". The Company fully expects to regain compliance
with such listing requirement as a result of the inclusion of the agenda items with respect to fiscal 2018 at the Combined Annual Meeting.
