General Employment Enterprises, Inc. Receives Notice of Noncompliance from NYSE MKT Over Fees

NAPERVILLE, IL, October 10, 2014 - General Employment Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE MKT: JOB) (the “Company” or “General Employment”) received a letter (the “Letter”) from NYSE MKT, LLC (the “NYSE MKT”) dated October 3, 2014, which stated, among other things, that the Company is currently delinquent in paying certain fees with NYSE MKT. The Company has since made all payments through the May 29th invoices and expects to have all payments for invoices through September 29th paid no later than November 17th. The Letter further indicates that the Company is noncompliant with Section 1003(f)(iv) of the Company Guide and has become subject to the procedures and requirements of Section 1009.

The Company was previously granted an extension of time until December 6, 2014 to regain compliance as it relates to, among other things, that the Company has equity less than $4 million and has sustained losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years and, in the opinion of NYSE MKT, it is questionable as to whether the Company will be able to continue operations and/or meet its obligations as they mature based on its current overall financial condition, pursuant to Sections 1003(a)(ii) and 1003(a)(iv) of the NYSE MKT’s Company Guide, respectively. The Company continues to make progress on the plan submitted to the NYSE MKT and expects to be compliant on or before the December 6, 2014 requirement.
