CENTRAL FEDERAL CORPORATION RECEIVES NASDAQ NOTICE

Fairlawn, Ohio – December 21, 2010 – Central Federal Corporation (Nasdaq: CFBK) announced that on December 17, 2010, the Company received notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market that it does not currently comply with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market because the bid price for its common stock has fallen below $1.00 per share for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of Nasdaq’s notice. Rule 5550(a)(2) of Nasdaq’s Listing Rules requires a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share.

At this time, the notice does not affect the listing of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq, and it will continue to trade under the symbol CFBK. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company has a 180 day grace period until June 15, 2011 to regain compliance with the minimum closing bid price requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common shares must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for at least ten consecutive business days prior to June 15, 2011.

In the event the Company does not regain compliance, the Company may be eligible for additional time, or be required to have its stock listed on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board.   

The Company is considering a number of different actions that it may take in response to this notice in order to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements, but no decision about a response has been made at this time.
