The Company intends to regain compliance with the NYSE American's continued listing standards by undertaking a measure or measures that are for the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

The Letter has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's common stock and the ADSs will continue to trade on the NYSE American under the symbol "DXF".
