Tauriga Sciences, Inc. Obtains Determination From OTC Markets Concerning OTCQB Listing Requirements

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Oct 8, 2015) - Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (OTC PINK: TAUG) or ("Tauriga" or the "Company"), a diversified life sciences company focused on building its existing technologies and evaluating potential acquisition candidates, has today announced that the Company has been granted additional time to regain compliance with OTCQB listing requirements. Specifically Tauriga has been notified by OTC Markets that it has until close of business January 27, 2016 ("extended deadline") to fully comply with the listing requirements that govern fully reporting U.S. companies listed on the OTCQB. By that date, the Company must become current with its delinquent filings ("filings"), post a new OTCQB Certification via www.otciq.com, and close at or above $.01 per share for 30 consecutive days. Currently shares of Tauriga are listed on the OTC Pink Limited Information Tier until it regains compliance with the above requirements.

Should the Company fail to meet this extended deadline, the Company will be required to become fully reporting (at a date subsequent to January 27, 2016) and then submit a new OTCQB Application along with a new application fee of $2,500 in additional to the requirements listed above.

Tauriga's CEO Seth M. Shaw, commented, "The Company is appreciative of the genuine efforts made on its behalf by the staff of OTC Markets with respect to the listing of its shares on the OTCQB tier exchange. This delisting occurred as a direct consequence of the malpractice committed by the Company's predecessor audit firm. The Company and its management continues to work diligently towards meeting the OTCQB listing requirements and is hopeful that such listing shall be regained prior to the extended deadline."

Additionally the Company is working towards reaching a fair and reasonable settlement with the predecessor audit firm that takes into account the substantial out of pocket cash losses as well as the collateral damage(s) caused by the malpractice that was committed. The Company will update shareholders, via a press release, should there be a resolution to this matter.
