Item 8.01. Other Events

On September 15, 2005, Conversion Services International, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), announced that its common stock is expected to
begin trading on the American Stock Exchange LLC on September 21, 2005 under the
symbol "CVN". This is contingent upon the Company being in compliance with all
applicable listing standards on the date it begins trading on the Exchange and
may be rescinded if the Company is not in compliance with such standards. In
connection with the listing, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form
8-A with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, and in connection
with the listing, the Company's Board of Directors declared a 1-for-15 reverse
stock split of the Company's common stock, which was approved by the Company's
stockholders on August 8, 2005. The reverse split is expected to become
effective after the close of business on September 20, 2005. As a result of the
reverse split, the total number of common shares outstanding will be reduced
from approximately 811 million to approximately 54 million. In addition, the
total number of authorized shares of common stock will be reduced from 1 billion
to 85 million.
