WARREN, Ohio – July 30, 2007 – Stoneridge, Inc. (NYSE: SRI) announced today that, as a result of unfavorable market conditions, it indefinitely postponed its previously announced intent to enter into a new $200 million senior secured term loan facility. Credit Suisse and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. were to act as joint book runners and joint lead arrangers for the $200 million senior secured term loan. As a result of the postponement of the $200 million term loan, the Company also announced today that it has terminated its tender offer to purchase for cash any and all of the $200 million in outstanding principal amount of its 11 1/2% Senior Notes due 2012 (CUSIP No. 86183PAD4). All Notes tendered in the tender offer and consent solicitation will be returned promptly to the respective holders thereof without any action required on the part of the holders. No tender offer consideration or consent payment will be paid on any of the tendered Notes.

The tender offer and consent solicitation were made upon the terms and conditions set forth in an Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated July 20, 2007, including the condition that the Company receive proceeds upon closing a new $200 million senior secured term loan facility on terms satisfactory to the Company, on or prior to the time Notes were accepted for payment, which proceeds, together with available cash, would be used to purchase the Notes and make consent payments. As referenced above, the Company did not anticipate satisfying this condition prior to the August 16, 2007 expiration date of the tender offer and consent solicitation.
