As previously disclosed, on August 17, 2010, American Apparel, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the NYSE Amex LLC (the “Exchange”) stating that the Company’s timely filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 (the “Second Quarter 10-Q”) is a condition of the Company’s continued listing on the Exchange, as required by Sections 134 and 1101 of the Exchange’s Company Guide, and that the Company’s failure to timely file the Second Quarter 10-Q was a material violation of the Company’s listing agreement with the Exchange. The letter from the Exchange provided that the Company must submit to the Exchange by August 31, 2010 any supplemental information addressing how the Company plans to regain compliance with Sections 134 and 1101 of the Company Guide by no later than November 15, 2010.

On September 13, 2010, the Company received a letter from the Exchange stating that the Exchange completed its review of the Company’s updated compliance plan and granted the Company an extension until November 15, 2010 for the Company to file the Second Quarter 10-Q.

On October 29, 2010, the Company filed the Second Quarter 10-Q.  On November 9, 2010, the Company also filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2010.

On November 10, 2010, the Company received a letter from the Exchange indicating that the Company has regained compliance for continued listing on the Exchange.
