Re: Yunhong CTI Ltd. (the "Company")
Nasdaq Symbol: CTIB

Dear Mr. Cesario:

I am following up on our recent telephone conversation in which I explained that since your Company has not yet held an annual meeting of shareholders within twelve months of the end of the Company's fiscal year end, it no longer complies with our Listing Rules (the "Rules") for continued listing.¹ Under our Rules the Company now has 45 calendar days to submit a plan to regain compliance and if we accept your plan, we can grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the fiscal year end, or until June 29, 2022, to regain compliance. Your plan should be as definitive as possible, addressing any issues that you believe would support your request for an exception.

In determining whether to accept your plan, we will consider such things as the likelihood that the annual meeting can be held within the 180 day period, the Company's past compliance history, the reasons for the delayed meeting, other corporate events that may occur within our review period, the Company's overall financial condition and its public disclosures.²

Please email your plan to me at [email protected] no later than February 28, 2022. After we review the plan, I will contact you if we have any questions or comments and will provide you written notice of our decision. If we do not accept your plan, you will have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a Hearings Panel.³

Our Rules require that the Company promptly disclose receipt of this letter by either filing a Form 8-K, where required by SEC rules, or by issuing a press release. The announcement needs to be made no later than four business days from the date of this letter and must include the continued
