EMRISE CORPORATION COMMENTS ON CURRENT STATUS OF NYSE ARCA LISTING

DURHAM, NC - November 19, 2010 - EMRISE CORPORATION (NYSE Arca: ERI), a multi-national manufacturer of defense, aerospace and industrial electronic devices and communications equipment, said it was informed in a letter received today from NYSE Regulation that the Company has regained compliance with NYSE's Net Worth and Tangible Net Assets continued listing standard.

Compliance with the Net Worth and Tangible Net Assets continued listing standard was based on the Company's Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 15, 2010.

NYSE Regulation also said even though the Company's common stock has closed at or above $1.00 for the past 30 trading days, due to the intra-day trading range and the price of the stock moving to or slightly above $1.00 at the close, it is unable to conclude at this time that the Company has demonstrated sustained compliance with the minimum share price standard and it will continue to review and monitor EMRISE's share price.

The Company noted that starting September 29, 2010 and ending November 18, 2010, EMRISE common stock closed at or above the NYSE Arca $1.00 minimum closing price requirement for 36 out of the 37 consecutive trading days during this period, and since October 8, 2010, the stock has closed at or above the $1.00 requirement for 30 consecutive trading days.
