On November 23, 2009, Nasdaq approved the transfer application.
The Companys common stock will continue to trade under the symbol TSTF. The Nasdaq Stock Market operates both the Nasdaq Global Market and the Nasdaq Capital Market. All companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market must meet certain financial requirements and adhere to similar corporate governance standards as companies listed on the Nasdaq Global Market.

TeamStaff Announces Transfer to Nasdaq Capital Market
Somerset, New Jersey November 24, 2009 TeamStaff, Inc. (Nasdaq: TSTF) a national provider of healthcare and administrative staffing services, today announced that its application to transfer the listing of its common stock from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market has been approved by Nasdaq. This transfer will be effective at the opening of business on Wednesday, November 25, 2009, and the Companys common stock will continue to trade under the symbol TSTF.

Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995:
This press release contains forward-looking statements as defined by the Federal Securities Laws. Statements in this
press release regarding TeamStaff, Inc.s business, which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements
that involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are based on the Companys expectations and are
subject to risks and uncertainties that cannot be predicted or quantified and are beyond the Companys control,
including the potential that (1) the Company may not achieve compliance with the Nasdaq MVPHS requirement for continued
listing on the Nasdaq Global Market, (2) the Company may be considered below criteria with respect to other continued
listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market, and (3) that a transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market, if requested, may
not be approved. TeamStaffs actual results could differ materially from those described in such forward-looking

to recruit and retain qualified temporary and permanent healthcare professionals and administrative staff on acceptable
terms; our ability to enter into contracts with hospitals, healthcare facility clients, affiliated healthcare networks,
physician practice groups, government agencies and other customers on terms attractive to us and to secure orders related to those contracts; changes in the timing of customer orders for
placement of temporary and permanent healthcare professionals and administrative staff; the overall level of demand for
our services; our ability to successfully implement our strategic growth, acquisition and integration strategies; the
effect of existing or future government legislation and regulation; the loss of key officers and management personnel
that could adversely affect our ability to remain competitive; other regulatory and tax developments; and the effect of
other events and important factors disclosed previously and from time-to-time in TeamStaffs filings with the U.S.
Securities Exchange Commission. For a discussion of such risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to
differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements, see Risk Factors in the Companys Annual Report or
