EDCI Holdings, Inc. Announces Engagement of Proxy Solicitor

NEW YORK, Tuesday, December 29, 2009 /PRNewswire / -- EDCI Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EDCI) ("the Company" or “EDCI”), today announced to its stockholders that the Company has engaged a proxy solicitor, InvestorCom, Inc., for the purpose of assisting EDCI in obtaining proxies for the proposals set forth in the Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 16th, 2009, which relate to the January 7, 2010 Special Meeting of EDCI’s Stockholders. EDCI’s management determined that it was advisable to engage a proxy solicitor due to several stockholders not having received materials as well as the timing of the mailing of proxy materials and the Special Meeting date in relation to the holiday season.  EDCI expects that it will incur approximately $6,500 in solicitor fees.

EDCI encourages any stockholders who have not yet received proxy materials to contact Richard Friedman, EDCI’s Secretary, at (770) 641-9009.
