ITEM 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

Today, December 21, 2011, DRI Corporation (the “Company”) filed a Form 25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Management now anticipates that the Company’s voluntary delisting from the NASDAQ Capital Market® will become effective on December 28, 2011.

As previously reported, the Company notified The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. on December 16, 2011 of its determination to file a Form 25 with the SEC to effect the voluntary delisting of its common stock from the NASDAQ Capital Market®. The Company has completed arrangements for the Company’s common stock to begin quotation on the OTCQB™ Marketplace, and management now anticipates a transition effectiveness date of December 28, 2011.

The OTCQB™ Marketplace is a market tier for over-the-counter-traded companies that are registered and reporting with the SEC. The Company believes the transition to the OTCQB™ Marketplace will save expenses and should allow for a continued orderly trading market for the common stock as the Company continues to pursue strategic alternatives.

The Company intends to continue filing reports pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
