<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Reference is
made to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Siebert Financial Corp. (the
&#147;Company&#148;) on January 10, 2011. The report disclosed that the Company 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. Nasdaq rules provided the Company a grace period until July 5, 2011 to
regain compliance with the Market Value of Publicly Held Shares. Since receipt
of the notice from Nasdaq, the market value of the Company&#146;s common stock has
not been sufficient to maintain continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On June 22, 2011, Joseph M.
Ramos, Jr., Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the
Company, submitted an application to list the Company&#146;s common stock on The
Nasdaq Capital Market. On June 28, 2011, the Company received notice from
Nasdaq stating that the Staff of Nasdaq has approved the Company&#146;s application.
The Company&#146;s common stock will be transferred to The Nasdaq Capital Market at
the opening of business on June 29, 2011.</FONT></P>
