EVCI Announces Results of Stockholders' Meeting

Market Wire, August, 2007

EVCI Career Colleges Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: EVCI) today announced that at its Annual Meeting held yesterday, EVCI's stockholders overwhelmingly approved all six proposals: the election of three directors; the proposal to ratify the ComVest Financing; the proposal to approve an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to increase EVCI's authorized common stock; the proposal to give the Board the authority to determine, if and when, to implement a reverse stock split; the proposal to approve amendments to the 2004 Amended and Restated Incentive Stock Plan; and the ratification of the appointment of Goldstein Golub Kesser LLP as EVCI's auditors for 2007.

EVCI will make a further announcement regarding the reverse stock split after it receives NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel's hearing decision. As previously announced, EVCI participated in a hearing before the Panel on July 19, 2007, relating to EVCI's non-compliance with the NASDAQ bid price requirement and its failure to obtain stockholder approval for, and prior to, completion of the ComVest Financing.
