eOn Communications Receives NASDAQ Letter

SAN JOSE, CA (August 9, 2007) – eOn Communications Corporation™ (NASDAQ: EONC), a leading provider of telecommunications solutions, today announced that on August 3, 2007 it received a NASDAQ Staff Deficiency Letter from the NASDAQ Stock Market. The letter states that for the last 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price per share of the Company’s common stock has been below the $1.00 minimum per share requirement for continued listing as set forth in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4). According to the Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(8)(D), the Company will be provided 180 calendar days, or until January 30, 2008, to regain compliance.

The NASDAQ letter has no effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock at this time. If, at anytime before January 30, 2008, the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for ten consecutive business days (or up to 20 consecutive business days if NASDAQ notifies the Company that the compliance period is being extended), NASDAQ will recognize that the Company has regained compliance with the Rule, and the Company’s common stock will remain listed on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange.

Should the Company not be able to demonstrate compliance with the rule by January 30, 2008, the NASDAQ staff will determine whether eOn meets the initial listing criteria set forth in Marketplace Rule 4310(c), except for the bid price requirement. If the Company meets the initial listing criteria, then it will be granted an additional 180 calendar days to comply. If not, eOn will be notified that its common stock will be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal the determination to delist its common stock.

“We have been working very aggressively to transform the company and reposition it to effectively compete in rapidly growing market segments,” stated David Lee, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, eOn Communications. “In spite of our initial success, this has not yet produced increased shareholder value. We remain confident of our strategy, however, and of its ability to enable the Company to regain compliance within the 180 day cure period.”
