TBC AT&T Inc

Tasty Baking Company (NYSE:TBC) today announced that the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") has notified the company of its acceptance of the company's business plan for continued listing on the NYSE. The submitted business plan outlines how the company intends to achieve compliance with the NYSE's recently increased continued listing criteria. As a result of its acceptance, the company's common stock will continue to be listed on the NYSE, pending quarterly reviews by the NYSE's Listing and Compliance Committee for progress against its business plan. As previously disclosed in a press release and Form 8-K dated July 28, 2005, the NYSE announced in June 2005 that it increased certain continued listing criteria, including increased requirements for market capitalization and shareholders' equity. Specifically, a company is considered "below criteria" if its average global market capitalization is less than $75 million over a consecutive 30 trading-day period and, at the same time, its stockholders' equity is less than $75 million. Based on an initial assessment period ended July 29, 2005, Tasty Baking Company received notice from the NYSE on August 1, 2005, that the company was below this particular increased continued listing standard, as disclosed on the company's Form 8-K dated August 4, 2005. The company submitted its business plan to the NYSE on September 15, 2005.
