<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to
Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.</B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On January
4, 2011, Siebert Financial Corp. (the &#147;Company&#148;) received notice from The
Nasdaq Stock Market (&#147;Nasdaq&#148;) stating that for more than 30 consecutive
business days, the Market Value of Publicly Held Shares closed below the
minimum $5 million required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market
under Nasdaq Rule 5450(b)(1)(C). Market Value of Publicly Held Shares is
calculated by multiplying the publicly held shares, which is total shares
outstanding less any shares held by officers, directors, or beneficial owners
of more than 10%, by the closing bid price. Muriel F. Siebert, Chairwoman,
Chief Executive Officer, President and a director of the Company, currently
owns 89.6% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. Therefore, the value
of shares beneficially owned by Muriel F. Siebert, and the value of shares
beneficially owned by other officers and directors of the Company, is excluded
from the Market Value of Publicly Held Shares of the Company.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Nasdaq Rule
5810(c)(3)(D) provides the Company a grace period of 180 calendar days, or
until July 5, 2011, to regain compliance with the Market Value of Publicly Held
Shares. In order to regain compliance, the Market Value of Publicly Held Shares
must close at $5 million or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days
during the grace period.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company
intends to actively monitor the Market Value of Publicly Held Shares between
now and July 5, 2011. The Company has not yet determined whether to take other
action in response to the notification letter.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During the
nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company repurchased 13,150 shares of
its common stock at an average price of $2.07.</FONT></P>
