United American Healthcare Corporation Announces Move to OTCQB Marketplace

DETROIT, July 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- United American Healthcare Corporation (OTCQB: UAHC) today announced that trading of shares of the Company's common stock will shift from the NASDAQ Stock Market to the OTCQB™ Marketplace beginning today, July 12, 2010.  The shares will continue to be quoted under the ticker symbol UAHC.  The OTCQB market tier was recently introduced to better distinguish OTC securities that are registered and fully reporting with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or a U.S. banking or insurance regulator.

"Considering the limited trading in our shares and the expense of maintaining our Nasdaq listing, we believe that moving to the OTCQB Marketplace is the right course of action at this time," said William Brooks, CEO of United American Healthcare.  "We expect to focus our efforts and resources towards the integration of our Pulse Systems acquisition in order to take advantage of the opportunities we see in the dynamic medical device market."

On July 1, 2010, the Company received a letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market advising that the Company has not held its annual meeting within the time frame allowed under the Nasdaq Listing Rules (Rule 5620(a)), and accordingly, Nasdaq's staff determined to initiate procedures to delist the Company's securities from the exchange.  Trading of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market will be suspended at the opening of business on July 12, 2010.

As a result of the Company's OTCQB designation, investors will be able to view real-time quotes with market depth (Level 2) at www.otcmarkets.com.
