By Order of the Board of Directors, /s/ Robi Hartman ROBI HARTMAN CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Dated: November 25, 2002 EXHIBIT 3 I.I.S. INTELLIGENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS RECEIVES NASDAQ DELISTING NOTICE AND REQUESTS HEARING DELISTING STAYED PENDING RESULTS OF HEARING RAMAT GAN, Israel, Nov. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- I.I.S. Intelligent Information Systems Ltd., (Nasdaq: IISL - NEWS) announced that it had received a Nasdaq Staff Determination indicating that the Company has failed to comply with either the minimum $2 million net tangible assets or the minimum $2.5 million stockholders' equity requirements for continued listing set forth in Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(2)(B). The Company has requested a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel to review the Staff Determination. The delisting has therefore been stayed pending the results of the hearing, which is expected to be held, and the results released, within the next 45 to 60 days. There can be no assurance, however, that the Panel will grant the Company's request for continued listing. The Company expects that its Ordinary Shares will be quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (OTC:BB - NEWS) if they are delisted from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market. The Company cannot predict at this time whether quotation of its Ordinary Shares on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board in lieu of the Nasdaq SmallCap Market will adversely impact the liquidity of the trading market for the Ordinary Shares. Despite receipt of Nasdaq's delisting notice, the Company's management remains optimistic with respect to the Company's future. Management is particularly pleased with recent strategic partnerships and positive business developments at the Company's affiliate StoreAge. Such developments include a recently announced partnership with Unisys, to incorporate StoreAge's volume management and storage management technology into a variety of Unisys strategic storage solutions. "We believe deeply in the superiority of our technology and products and we look forward to better times ahead," said Robi Hartman, Chairman and CEO of the Company. "We regret Nasdaq's decision, but we believe our shareholders' and prospective public investors' current trading and liquidity needs at this time are likely to be adequately served on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (OTC:BB - NEWS), should Nasdaq's initial determination prevail. On a personal note, let me say that I believe in the value of IIS in general, and specifically in the value of our StoreAge affiliate. I've been buying shares in the open market as filed with the SEC, and will continue to do so at current levels," Hartman added. About IIS I.I.S. Intelligent Information Systems Ltd.
