Allbirds, Inc. (NASDAQ:BIRD) announced Monday that board member Ann Freeman has resigned from the company’s board of directors, effective Monday.

Under Nasdaq’s rules, Allbirds has a cure period to regain compliance, ending on the earlier of one year from Monday or the company’s next annual meeting.

The information is based on a press release statement and the company’s Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
