DRI Corporation (NASDAQ: TBUS), a digital communications technology leader in the global surface transportation and transit security markets, announced today that it received written notification from the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) that the Company was granted a second 180-day grace period (the “Second Grace Period”) in which to achieve compliance with NASDAQ’s continued listing requirement under Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”).

David L. Turney, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, said: “As we reported this summer, the Company received a notification letter from NASDAQ on June 10, 2011, which stated the Company no longer met NASDAQ’s Bid Price Rule since the price of our common stock had fallen below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. We were advised at the time to achieve Bid Price Rule compliance by Dec. 7, 2011. Recognizing that we would be unable to achieve compliance by the prescribed deadline, we submitted a written request to NASDAQ on Dec. 5, 2011, asking for a Second Grace Period of 180 days. On Dec. 8, 2011, we received written notification from NASDAQ that the Company was granted a Second Grace Period, which ends June 4, 2012.”
