The Board of Directors of Emerson Radio Corp. (the “Company”) has empowered a Special Committee to evaluate possible strategic alternatives intended to enhance stockholder value. The Special Committee has engaged Lazard Middle Market LLC (“LMM”) as financial advisor to advise and assist the Special Committee in analyzing the Company’s business and financial condition, and exploring and evaluating strategic alternatives. The Special Committee is comprised solely of independent directors and was constituted by the Board to, among other things, (i) independently evaluate and seek to achieve the best value for all of the Company’s stockholders with respect to any strategic alternatives that may be proposed by parties interested in entering into a strategic transaction with the Company, (ii) solicit, explore, review, analyze and independently evaluate strategic alternatives available to the Company for maximizing stockholder value and (iii) independently evaluate and determine whether the Company should declare and pay any dividend or distribution of cash or assets to stockholders of the Company. The Special Committee has also retained independent legal counsel. The work of the Special Committee and LMM is at an early stage and its outcome is highly unpredictable. The Special Committee is empowered to consider a wide range of alternatives, some of which can be approved and executed by the Special Committee on its own, without approval by the Board or stockholders. The Special Committee would, however, have to obtain Board approval for any transaction that would require stockholder approval pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law. There can be no assurance that Board or stockholder approval would be received for any such transaction recommended by the Special Committee. Nor can there be any assurance that the Special Committee will pursue, undertake or, if required, recommend any strategic alternative to the Board, or that any strategic alternative undertaken or recommended by the Special Committee will result in the consummation of a transaction in the future or provide any benefit to the Company’s stockholders. The Company does not plan to disclose the progress of the Special Committee’s work or comment on any developments regarding the strategic alternatives being considered by the Special Committee unless and until the Special Committee and, if necessary, the Board of Directors approves a specific transaction or the Special Committee otherwise concludes its review and analysis of strategic alternatives.
