LAS VEGAS--(Business Wire)--
Community Bancorp (NASDAQ: CBON), the holding company for Community Bank of
Nevada and Community Bank of Arizona, today announced that it received notice
from the NASDAQ Stock Market on June 25, 2009 that its plan to regain compliance
with the continued listing requirements under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1)

the Company to regain compliance with the Rule. While the Company anticipates
filing the delinquent Form 10K and Form 10Q as soon as possible, the terms of
the exception require the Company to file both the Form 10K for 2008 and Form

As discussed in prior press releases, certain financial analysis remains in
