Item 3.01       Notice of Delisting or Failure to

Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On July 10, 2026, BNB Plus Corp. (the “Company”)

received written notification (the “Delisting Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) that the Nasdaq

Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) has determined to delist the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common

Stock”), and suspend trading of its Common Stock at the open of trading on July 14, 2026.

As previously reported on March 24, 2026,

the Company received written notice on March 20, 2026 (the “Notification Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Department

of Nasdaq that the Company did not satsify the $1.00 bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued

listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company was informed that its Common Stock would be subject to delisting from Nasdaq unless

the Company timely requested a hearing before the the Panel. The Company timely requested a hearing before the Panel and had a hearing

before the Panel on April 30, 2026. On May 19, 2026, the Panel granted the Company an extension to regain compliance with the

$1.00 bid price requirement until June 11, 2026. On June 1, 2026, the Company informed the Panel that it would no longer be

pursuing a reverse stock split to regain compliance with the $1.00 bid price requirement but instead the Company asked for an additional

60-day extension to organically regain compliance with the $1.00 bid price requirement as it made announcements in connection with the

strategic review. In its Delisting Notice the Panel declined the Company’s extension request.

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5820, the Company intends to request that the Nasdaq Listing and Hearing Review Council (the “Listing

Council”) review the Panel’s delisting determination in light of the Company’s recently closed financing and further

developments in connection with the Company’s ongoing strategic review process (the “Listing Council Review”). If the

Listing Council elects to review the matter, it may affirm, modify, reverse, or remand the Hearing Panel’s decision. The planned

request for Listing Council Review will not stay the Panel’s delisting determination, and trading of the Company's Common Stock

on the Nasdaq Capital Market will be suspended at the open of trading on July 14, 2026.

There can be no assurance that the Listing Council

will grant the Company's request for the Listing Council Review, or that the Listing Council Review will result in the continued listing

of the Company's Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company's Common Stock is expected to continue trading on the OTCQB Venture

Market during the pendency of the Listing Council Review, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the Company's Common Stock

may resume trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

In connection with the Panel’s decision,

Nasdaq will file a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in accordance with Nasdaq Listing

Rule 5830 and Rule 12d2-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, after applicable appeal periods

have lapsed.

As a result of the suspension in trading and expected

delisting, the Company expects that its Common Stock will begin trading publicly on the OTCQB Venture Market, an over-the-counter market

operated by OTC Markets Group, under its existing symbol “BNBX” at the open of trading on July 14, 2026.

The OTCQB Venture Market

is a significantly more limited market than the Nasdaq, and quotation on the OTCQB Venture Market will likely result in a less liquid

market for existing and potential holders of the Company’s Common Stock to trade such securities and could further depress the trading

price of the Common Stock. The Company can provide no assurance that its Common Stock will continue to trade on this market, whether broker-dealers

will continue to provide public quotes of the its Common Stock on this market, or whether the trading volume of its Common Stock will

be sufficient to provide for an efficient trading market for existing and potential holders of its Common Stock.

The transition of the

Company’s Common Stock to the OTCQB Venture Market is not expected to affect the Company's business operations or its reporting

requirements under the rules of the SEC.

Item 7.01.       Regulation FD Disclosure.

On July 13, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing

its receipt of the Delisting Notice. A copy of the press release is being furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.

Exhibit 99.1

BNB Plus Corp. (BNBX) Announces Nasdaq Delisting

Determination and Transition to OTCQB Market ; Company to Seek Review by Nasdaq Listing and

Hearing Review Council

Stony Brook, New York — BNB Plus Corp. (Nasdaq:

BNBX) (“BNB Plus” or the “Company”) today announced that it has received a delisting determination from the Hearing Panel of the Nasdaq

Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) as a result of the Company’s non-compliance with the minimum $1.00 bid price requirement set forth

in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Delisting Determination”).

In accordance with applicable Nasdaq rules, the Company intends to request that the Nasdaq Listing and Hearing Review Council (the “Listing

Council”) review the Delisting Determination in light of the Company’s recently closed financing and further developments

in connection with the Company’s ongoing strategic review process (the “Listing Council Review”). If the Listing Council

elects to review the matter, it may affirm, modify, reverse, or remand the Hearing Panel’s decision.

The planned request for Listing Council Review will not stay the Delisting Determination, and trading of the Company’s common stock on

Nasdaq will be suspended at the open of trading on July 14, 2026.

The Company has secured approval for its common

stock to be quoted on the OTCQB Venture Market, a U.S. trading platform operated by OTC Markets Group. The company anticipates its shares

will begin trading on the OTCQB under the same symbol, BNBX, beginning at the open of trading on July 14, 2026, or as soon as

possible thereafter.

The Company does not expect the transition to OTC Markets to impact

its business operations, and BNBX will continue to operate as a fully reporting public company with

the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

There can be no assurance that the Listing Council will grant the Company’s request for the Listing Council Review, or that the Listing

Council Review will result in the continued listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company’s common stock

is expected to continue trading on the OTCQB Venture Market during the pendency of the Listing Council Review, and there can be no assurance

as to whether or when the Company’s common stock may resume trading on Nasdaq.
