<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">U.S. Department of Labor (&#147;DOL&#148;) pursuant to its authority under the </font><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">McNamara-O&#146;Hara Service Contract Act of 1965, as amended (the &#147;Service Contract Act&#148; or &#147;SCA&#148;).&#160; The Company believes that the wage determinations issued by the DOL are applicable to the Company&#146;s service contracts as the SCA applies to every contract entered into by the United States or the District of Columbia, the principal purpose of which is to furnish services to the United States through the use of service employees.&#160; [<i>See </i>41 U.S.C. &#167; 351 et seq.]&#160; More specifically, the SCA requires contractors and subcontractors performing services on covered federal or District of Columbia contracts in excess of $2,500 to pay service employees in various classes no less than the monetary wage rates and to furnish fringe benefits found prevailing in the locality. The compensation requirements of the SCA are administered by the DOL&#146;s Wage and Hour Division, which issues wage determinations. [<i>See </i>29 C.F.R. Parts 4 and 6].&#160; Based on the foregoing authorities and the Company&#146;s evaluation of the other factors set out in SAB Topic 13.A.1, the Company determined that it was appropriate to recognize the revenues associated with </font><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">the contractual billing adjustments that were calculated directly based upon additional wages required under the SCA to be paid, as conveyed to the Company by the DOL. Further, the Company notes that the revenue concerned was recognized in fiscal 2008, at which time the DVA made payment in full in respect of a number of their locations, based on the wage amounts calculated by the DOL. The Company has no indication of any items that would preclude final approval for release of payment of all wages and associated charges related to the services acknowledged as having been provided at the other locations. The Company continues to work collaboratively with the DVA to bring this item to resolution. In that regard, the Company&#146;s understanding is that the DVA is in the process of finalizing the steps needed for satisfying the remaining outstanding balance, which it is anticipated will be received in fiscal 2011.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">disclosure to clarify that it has accrued for all estimated liabilities, including interest and penalties and, for the reasons stated below, is currently unable to provide an estimate of possible additional liabilities.&#160; The Company&#146;s proposed revised disclosure is as follows:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#147;As described in greater detail in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, TeamStaff had received notices from IRS claiming taxes, interest and penalties due related to payroll taxes predominantly from its former PEO operations which were sold in fiscal 2003. TeamStaff has also received notices from the IRS reporting overpayments of taxes. Management believes that these notices are predominantly the result of misapplication of payroll tax payments between its legal entities. To date, TeamStaff has been working with the IRS to resolve these discrepancies and has had certain interest and penalty claims abated. TeamStaff has also received notices from the Social Security Administration claiming variances in wage reporting compared to IRS transcripts. TeamStaff believes the notices from the Social Security Administration are directly related to the IRS notices received. TeamStaff believes that after the IRS applies all the funds correctly, any significant interest and penalties may be abated; however, there can be no assurance that each of these matters will be resolved favorably. In settling various years for specific subsidiaries with the IRS, the Company has received refunds for those specific periods; however, as the process of settling and concluding on other periods and subsidiaries is not yet completed and the potential exists for related penalties and interest, the remaining liability ($1.2 million at March&nbsp;31, 2011(1)) has been recorded in accounts payable and includes estimated penalties and interest currently sought by the IRS totaling approximately $400,000.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company believes it has accrued for the entire estimated remaining liability, inclusive of interest and penalties through the date of the financial statements. The Company will incur additional interest and may incur possible additional penalties through the future date that this obligation is settled, however, it is not currently possible to estimate what, if any, additional amount(s)&nbsp;may be claimed in future, given the uncertain timing and nature of any future settlement negotiations. In fiscal 2009, the Company paid $1.1 million, related to this matter. No payments were made in fiscal 2010 and through the date of this report. Management believes that the ultimate resolution of these remaining payroll tax matters will not have a significant adverse effect on its financial position or future results of operations. The Company&#146;s intention is that it will in due course seek to negotiate a mutually satisfactory payment plan with the IRS, but there is no assurance that it would be successful in doing so and the Company&#146;s future cash flows and liquidity could therefore be materially affected by this matter.&#148;</font></p>
