IN PRINCIPLE TO FORM JOINT VENTURE
Parsippany, NJ and Scottsdale, AZ — January 4, 2008 — Emerson Radio Corp. (AMEX:MSN) and ADCOM, LLC today announced that they have reached an agreement in principle to form a joint venture for the primary purpose of manufacturing, selling, distributing and/or licensing audio and video equipment for the home and/or office.
Pursuant to the agreement in principle, Emerson would contribute cash to the new company in exchange for a controlling interest in the new company, and ADCOM would sell and/or license certain of its assets, including, all of its intellectual property, to the new company in exchange for cash and a non-controlling interest in the new company.

The consummation of the proposed joint venture between Emerson and ADCOM is subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements, receipt of approval by Emerson’s board of directors and other requisite approvals, and the satisfaction of other conditions to be agreed to by the parties.
