GreenHunter Resources Receives Letter from NYSE MKT

GRAPEVINE, Texas--()--GreenHunter Resources, Inc. (NYSE MKT: GRH and GRH.PRC), a diversified water resource, waste management and environmental services company specializing in the unconventional oil and natural gas shale resource plays, announced today that on May 21, 2013, the Company received notice from the Exchange Staff of the NYSE MKT LLC indicating that the Company has not met one of the Exchange’s continued listing requirements of the NYSE MKT LLC’s Company Guide due to the failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2013 as required by Sections 134 and 1101 of the Company Guide.

The Company has been afforded the opportunity to submit a plan of compliance to the Exchange by June 4, 2013, that demonstrates the Company’s ability to regain compliance with Sections 134 and 1101 by August 15, 2013. The Company intends to submit a plan by the time specified, however, if the plan is not accepted by the Exchange, the Company will be subject to delisting procedures as set forth in Section 1010 and Part 12 of the Company Guide.

As previously announced, the Company believes it will file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2013 by June 10, 2013. On December 31, 2012, the Company acquired two privately held oilfield water service and construction companies that provide services to oil and natural gas producers in the Eagle Ford Shale. The two acquired entities had previously been providing services to operators active in the Eagle Ford Shale play. The Company has been diligently working to consolidate the financial statements from these two private companies into the Company’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP but needs additional time to complete the consolidation.
