<p>马里兰州格伦伯尼，2025 年 12 月 12 日（GLOBE NEWSWIRE）-- 格伦伯尼万通金控（“万通金控”）（NASDAQ: GLBZ），作为格伦伯尼银行（“银行”）的银行控股公司，今天宣布万通金控的董事会（“董事会”）已批准自愿将万通金控的普通股（及相关的普通股购买权）从纳斯达克资本市场（“纳斯达克”）自愿退市，并随后自愿注销其普通股在美国证券交易委员会（“SEC”）的注册，以终止和暂停其根据 1934 年证券交易法（修订版）（“交易法”）的报告义务。</p>
<p>与此公告同时，万通金控今天通知纳斯达克其自愿将普通股从纳斯达克退市的意图。与计划中的退市和注销相关，万通金控计划在 2025 年 12 月 22 日左右向 SEC 提交一份 25 号表格。预计从纳斯达克退市将在 2026 年 1 月 1 日生效，即在提交 25 号表格后的 10 天。万通金控目前预计，其普通股在纳斯达克的交易将在 2025 年 12 月 22 日左右提交 25 号表格时暂停。</p>
<p>董事会基于万通金控希望在退市后为其股东提供流动性的意图，决定退市和注销万通金控的普通股，采取其控制范围内的措施使普通股在 OTCQX（由 OTC Markets Group Inc.运营）上交易。万通金控已申请在 OTCQX 平台上报价其普通股。万通金控打算继续向其股东提供信息，并采取措施使其普通股的交易市场得以存在。然而，没有保证经纪人会继续在普通股上做市，普通股的交易将继续在 OTCQX 或其他市场上进行，或者万通金控将继续提供足够的信息以使经纪人能够为其普通股提供报价。</p>
<p>在万通金控的普通股从纳斯达克退市后，万通金控计划在 2026 年 1 月 2 日左右向 SEC 提交一份 15 号表格，证明其记录股东少于 1,200 名。提交 15 号表格后，万通金控在交易法下的报告义务将立即暂停，其向 SEC 提交某些交易法报告和表格的义务，包括某些 10-K、10-Q 和 8-K 表格，将停止。万通金控在注销生效后将一般免除所有交易法下的报告义务。万通金控预计其普通股的注销将在向 SEC 提交 25 号表格后 90 天生效。此新闻稿以及提交给 SEC 的文件也将在万通金控的网站上提供，<em>https://www.thebankofglenburnie.com</em>。</p>
<p>我们的董事会认为，决定将万通金控的普通股从纳斯达克退市并注销及暂停万通金控在交易法下的报告义务符合万通金控及其股东的最佳利益。董事会已确定，作为一家注册公众公司的运营所带来的负担超过了目前对万通金控及其股东的任何优势。董事会在审查和仔细考虑多个因素后做出了退市和注销万通金控普通股的决定，包括但不限于万通金控未来可能不符合纳斯达克持续上市要求的可能性，这将不可避免地导致万通金控的普通股被纳斯达克退市，证券和行业分析师对万通金控缺乏研究覆盖，万通金控在纳斯达克的证券缺乏活跃的交易市场，消除与准备和提交定期报告给 SEC 相关的重大成本的潜力，以及作为一家在纳斯达克上市的公众报告公司所需的法律、审计和其他费用，以及管理层在遵守这些要求方面的重大时间需求。一旦退市和注销，董事会相信万通金控将重新分配其财务和管理资源，以拓展更广泛的商业机会。</p>
<p>退市后，万通金控的普通股交易将仅在私下协商的销售中进行，并可能在场外市场上进行。</p>

格伦伯尼万通金控

<p>格伦伯尼万通金控宣布自愿退市纳斯达克并终止 SEC 注册。退市将于 2026 年 1 月 1 日生效，纳斯达克的交易将在 2025 年 12 月 22 日暂停。万通金控计划在 OTCQX 平台上交易。该决定旨在降低作为上市公司的成本和管理负担。万通金控将向 SEC 提交表格 25 和表格 15 以完成该过程</p>

<p>GLEN BURNIE, Md., Dec. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Glen Burnie Bancorp (“Bancorp”) (NASDAQ: GLBZ), the bank holding Bancorp for The Bank of Glen Burnie (“Bank”), today announced that Bancorp’s board of directors (the “Board”) has approved the voluntarily delisting of Bancorp’s common stock (and related common stock purchase rights) from The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) and the subsequent voluntary deregistration of its common stock with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in order to terminate and suspend its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>马里兰州格伦伯尼，2025 年 12 月 12 日（GLOBE NEWSWIRE）-- 格伦伯尼万通金控（“万通金控”）（NASDAQ: GLBZ），作为格伦伯尼银行（“银行”）的银行控股公司，今天宣布万通金控的董事会（“董事会”）已批准自愿将万通金控的普通股（及相关的普通股购买权）从纳斯达克资本市场（“纳斯达克”）自愿退市，并随后自愿注销其普通股在美国证券交易委员会（“SEC”）的注册，以终止和暂停其根据 1934 年证券交易法（修订版）（“交易法”）的报告义务。</p>
</div><p>Simultaneously with this announcement, Bancorp notified Nasdaq today of its intention to voluntarily delist its shares of common stock from Nasdaq. In connection with the contemplated delisting and deregistration, Bancorp intends to file a Form 25 with the SEC on or about December 22, 2025. The delisting from Nasdaq is expected to become effective on January 1, 2026, 10 days after filing the Form 25. Bancorp currently expects that the trading of its common stock on Nasdaq will be suspended upon the filing of the Form 25 on or about December 22, 2025.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>与此公告同时，万通金控今天通知纳斯达克其自愿将普通股从纳斯达克退市的意图。与计划中的退市和注销相关，万通金控计划在 2025 年 12 月 22 日左右向 SEC 提交一份 25 号表格。预计从纳斯达克退市将在 2026 年 1 月 1 日生效，即在提交 25 号表格后的 10 天。万通金控目前预计，其普通股在纳斯达克的交易将在 2025 年 12 月 22 日左右提交 25 号表格时暂停。</p>
</div><p>The Board based its decision to delist and deregister Bancorp’s common stock on Bancorp’s intention to provide liquidity to its stockholders following the delisting by taking actions within its control to have the common stock traded on the OTCQX, operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. (the “OTC”). Bancorp has filed an application for its common stock to be quoted on the OTCQX platform, operated by the OTC. Bancorp intends to continue to provide information to its stockholders and to take such actions to enable a trading market in its common stock to exist. There is no guarantee, however, that a broker will continue to make a market in the common stock and that trading of the common stock will continue on the OTCQX or otherwise or that Bancorp will continue to provide information sufficient to enable brokers to provide quotes for its common stock.</p>

</div><p>Following the delisting of Bancorp’s common stock from Nasdaq, Bancorp intends to file a Form 15 with the SEC on or about January 2, 2026 certifying that it has fewer than 1,200 shareholders of record. Upon filing the Form 15, Bancorp's filing obligations under the Exchange Act will immediately be suspended, and its obligations to file certain Exchange Act reports and forms with the SEC, including certain Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, will cease. Bancorp will generally be relieved of all reporting obligations under the Exchange Act upon the effectiveness of the deregistration. Bancorp expects that the deregistration of its common stock will become effective 90 days after the filing of the Form 25 with the SEC. This press release as well as the documents filed with the SEC also will be available on Bancorp’s website, <em>https://www.thebankofglenburnie.com</em>.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>在万通金控的普通股从纳斯达克退市后，万通金控计划在 2026 年 1 月 2 日左右向 SEC 提交一份 15 号表格，证明其记录股东少于 1,200 名。提交 15 号表格后，万通金控在交易法下的报告义务将立即暂停，其向 SEC 提交某些交易法报告和表格的义务，包括某些 10-K、10-Q 和 8-K 表格，将停止。万通金控在注销生效后将一般免除所有交易法下的报告义务。万通金控预计其普通股的注销将在向 SEC 提交 25 号表格后 90 天生效。此新闻稿以及提交给 SEC 的文件也将在万通金控的网站上提供，<em>https://www.thebankofglenburnie.com</em>。</p>
</div><p>Our Board believes that the decision to delist Bancorp’s common stock from Nasdaq and deregister and suspend Bancorp’s reporting obligations under the Exchange Act are in the best interest of Bancorp and its stockholders. The Board has determined that the burdens associated with operating as a registered public company outweigh any advantages to Bancorp and its stockholders at this time. The Board made the decision to delist and deregister Bancorp’s common stock following its review and careful consideration of several factors, including, but not limited to, Bancorp’s likely future non-compliance with the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq that would inevitably result in delisting of Bancorp’s common stock by Nasdaq, lack of research coverage of Bancorp by securities and industry analysts, the lack of an active trading market for Bancorp’s securities on Nasdaq, the potential for eliminating the significant costs associated with preparing and filing periodic reports with the SEC and the legal, audit and other expenses associated with being a public reporting company listed on Nasdaq, as well as the substantial demands on management’s time in complying with these requirements. Once delisted and deregistered, the Board believes that Bancorp will redirect its financial and management resources to a wider range of business opportunities.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>我们的董事会认为，决定将万通金控的普通股从纳斯达克退市并注销及暂停万通金控在交易法下的报告义务符合万通金控及其股东的最佳利益。董事会已确定，作为一家注册公众公司的运营所带来的负担超过了目前对万通金控及其股东的任何优势。董事会在审查和仔细考虑多个因素后做出了退市和注销万通金控普通股的决定，包括但不限于万通金控未来可能不符合纳斯达克持续上市要求的可能性，这将不可避免地导致万通金控的普通股被纳斯达克退市，证券和行业分析师对万通金控缺乏研究覆盖，万通金控在纳斯达克的证券缺乏活跃的交易市场，消除与准备和提交定期报告给 SEC 相关的重大成本的潜力，以及作为一家在纳斯达克上市的公众报告公司所需的法律、审计和其他费用，以及管理层在遵守这些要求方面的重大时间需求。一旦退市和注销，董事会相信万通金控将重新分配其财务和管理资源，以拓展更广泛的商业机会。</p>
</div><p>Following the delisting, any trading in Bancorp’s common stock would only occur in privately negotiated sales and potentially on the over-the-counter market.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>退市后，万通金控的普通股交易将仅在私下协商的销售中进行，并可能在场外市场上进行。</p>
