Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
On September 15, 2009, TeamStaff, Inc. (the Company) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (Nasdaq) notifying the Company that it has not maintained a minimum market value of its publicly held shares of common stock of $5,000,000, as required by the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Global Market set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(C) (the Listing Rule).
In accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company will be provided 90 calendar days, or until December 14, 2009, to regain compliance with the Listing Rule. The Company can regain compliance with the Listing Rule if the market value of its publicly held shares is $5,000,000 or more for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive trading days prior to December 14, 2009. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be able to regain compliance with this requirement.
If the Companys common stock does not regain compliance with the Listing Rule, Nasdaq will provide written notice that the Companys securities will be subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Global Market. In that event, the Company may appeal the decision to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel. Alternatively, the Company may apply for listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, provided it meets the continued listing requirements of that market.

TeamStaff Receives Nasdaq Deficiency Notice
Related to the Market Value of its Publicly Held Shares
Somerset, New Jersey September 18, 2009 TeamStaff, Inc. (Nasdaq: TSTF) a national provider of healthcare and administrative staffing services, today announced that on September 15, 2009, it received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Global Market (Nasdaq) stating that for the last 30 consecutive trading days, the Companys common stock has not maintained a minimum market value of publicly held shares of $5,000,000, as required by the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Global Market set forth in Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(C) (the Listing Rule).
As provided by Nasdaq rules, TeamStaff will be provided 90 calendar days, or until December 14, 2009, to regain compliance with the $5,000,000 minimum market value requirement. The Company will regain compliance with the Listing Rule if, prior to December 14, 2009, the market value of the publicly held shares of TeamStaffs common stock is $5,000,000 or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days. There can be no guarantee that TeamStaff will be able to regain compliance with the Listing Rule.
In the event that we were to receive notice that our common stock will be delisted, Nasdaq rules permit us to appeal any delisting determination by the Nasdaq staff to a Nasdaq Listings Qualifications Panel. In addition, we may be permitted to transfer the listing of our common stock to the Nasdaq Capital Market if we satisfy all criteria for continued inclusion on such market. TeamStaffs management and Board of Directors are considering alternatives to address compliance with the Listing Rule.
