Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 22, 2015, General Employment Enterprises, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with Roth Capital Partners, LLC (the "Representative"), as the representative of the several underwriters identified therein (collectively, the "Underwriters"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to offer and sell up to 11,200,000 shares of the Company's common stock, no par value (the "Common Stock"), at a price of $0.70 per share. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has granted the Representative an option, exercisable for 30 days, to purchase up to additional 1,680,000 shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments, if any.  

The Company estimates that the net proceeds from this offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and before offering expenses payable by the Company, will be approximately $7.3 million. If the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full, net proceeds from the offering are expected to be approximately $8.4 million. The closing of the offering is expected to take place on July 27, 2015, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

The offering is being made pursuant to the Company's effective registration statements on Form S-3 (File No. 333- 204080), as amended and supplemented filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

The Underwriting Agreement also provides for us, upon the closing of the offering, to issue warrants (the "Underwriter's Warrant") to the Underwriters to purchase from the Company up to a total of 1,120,000 shares of Common Stock which will be exercisable for five years. The Underwriter's Warrant has a seven-year piggyback registration right with respect to shares of Common Stock underlying the Underwriter's Warrant from the date of the Underwriting Agreement.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement are solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. This Current Report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements related to the anticipated closing of the offering and the amount of net proceeds expected from the offering. The risks and uncertainties involved include the Company's ability to satisfy certain conditions to closing on a timely basis or at all, as well as other risks detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the SEC.

The Underwriting Agreement and a copy of the Underwriter's Warrant are filed as Exhibit 1.1 and Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report and the description of the material terms of the Underwriting Agreement and the Underwriter's Warrant are qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibits. A copy of the opinion of Loeb & Loeb LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the shares in the offering is attached as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.
