On February 12, 2020, the Board of Directors of NAPCO Security Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), upon the recommendation of its Nominating Committee, appointed Robert Ungar to the Company’s Board of Directors and to the Audit Committee thereof. Mr. Ungar’s appointment fills a vacancy on the Board and Audit Committee resulting from the previously reported death of Arnold Blumenthal. Mr. Ungar was appointed to serve for a term ending at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders following the Company’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2020. Mr. Ungar has not engaged in any transaction with the Company that would be reportable pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

On February 14, 2020, the Company received a letter from NASDAQ confirming that it was in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605 by virtue of the appointment of Mr. Ungar to the audit committee.

Re: NAPCO Security Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) Nasdaq Symbol: NSSC

 

Dear Mr. Buchel:

 

On July 9, 2019, Staff notified the Company that it did not comply with the independent director and audit committee requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market set forth in Listing Rules 5605(b)(1) and 5605(c)(2) (the “Rules”), respectively. Based on the information regarding the appointment of Mr. Robert A. Ungar to the Company’s Board of Directors and audit committee, as detailed in your email dated February 12, 2020, Staff has determined that the Company complies with the Rules, and this matter is now closed.

 

If you have any questions, please contact me at +301 978 8085

 

Sincerely,
