(1)  This registration statement is being filed with the Securities and Exchange
     Commission to register 250,000 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per
     share, of the registrant ("Common Stock"), which may be issued upon the
     exercise of stock options under the Emerson Radio Corp. 2004 Non-Employee
     Outside Director Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"), 8,334 shares of which may
     be issued upon exercise of stock options or stock purchase rights that may
     be issued under the Plan and 241,666 shares of which may be issued upon
     exercise of stock options that have been issued under the Plan. In addition
     to such shares, this Registration Statement also covers additional shares
     of common stock as may be issuable pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions
     set forth in the Plan.
(2)  The proposed maximum offering price per share and the proposed maximum
     aggregate offering price are based on (i) estimates in accordance with Rule
     457(c) and Rule 457(h)(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
     "Securities Act"), with respect to 8,334 shares of Common Stock, which may
     be issued upon the exercise of stock options that may be issued under the
     Plan, and (ii) calculations in accordance with Rule 457(h)(1) of the
     Securities Act, with respect to 241,666 shares of Common Stock, which may
     be issued upon the exercise of stock options that have been issued under
     the Plan. See Footnote Nos. 4 and 6 below.
(3)  Represents an aggregate of 8,334 shares of Common Stock of the 250,000
     shares of Common Stock with respect to which this registration statement
     relates, which may be issued upon the exercise of stock options that may be
     issued under the Plan.
(4)  Estimated, in accordance with Rule 457(c) and Rule 457(h)(1) of the
     Securities Act, solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee.
     The proposed maximum offering price per share and the proposed maximum
     aggregate offering price are based on the average of the high and low
     prices for a share of Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange on March
     24, 2006, which is within five days prior to the date of this registration
     statement.
(5)  Represents an aggregate of 241,666 shares of Common Stock of the 250,000
     shares of Common Stock with respect to which this registration statement
     relates, which may be issued upon exercise of stock options that have been
     issued under the Plan.
(6)  Calculated in accordance with Rule 457(h)(1) of the Securities Act. The
     proposed maximum offering price per share and the proposed maximum
     aggregate offering price have been calculated based on the weighted-average
     exercise price of stock options that have been granted under the Plan.

ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

         Not Applicable.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

         Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("GCL") provides
generally that a person sued as a director, officer, employee or agent of a
corporation may be indemnified by the corporation in nonderivative suits for
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation. In the case of criminal actions and proceedings, such person must
have had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Indemnification of expenses is authorized in stockholder derivative suits where
such person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and so long as he or she
had not been found liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his
or her duty to the corporation. Even in this latter instance, the court may
determine that in view of all the circumstances such person is entitled to
indemnification for such expenses as the court deems proper. A person sued as a
director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation who has been successful in
defense of the action must be indemnified by the corporation against expenses
(including attorney's fees).

         Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that we shall
indemnify any person to the full extent permitted by the GCL, as the same
exists, or as it may be amended. However, in the case of amendment, the
indemnification rights extend only to the extent that such amendment permits us
to provide broader indemnification rights than the GCL provided prior to such
amendment. Approval from the board of directors to initiate a suit against us is
a prerequisite for indemnification of such person initiating the suit. For our
officers and directors, advancement of expenses prior to a final disposition of
a proceeding is permitted only if such officer or director delivers to us a
written affirmation of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the
standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under the GCL and a written
affirmation, by or on behalf of such officer or director, to repay all amounts
so advanced if it should be determined ultimately that he or she is not entitled
to indemnification. Any indemnification or advance of expenses must be reported
to our stockholders in writing. If we do not pay a claim for indemnification
within ninety days after receipt of a written claim, a suit to recover the
unpaid amount may be brought by the person seeking indemnification. Such person,
if successful in whole or in part in his or her suit to compel indemnification,
will be entitled to the reasonable expenses of prosecuting such suit. We have
the power and authority to purchase and maintain insurance or another
arrangement against any claim, damage, loss or risk, regardless of whether we
have such power to indemnify under our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
and the GCL. All indemnification rights conferred by our Certificate of
Incorporation and Bylaws are not intended to apply to any of our predecessor
entities.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act may
be permitted to our directors, officers or controlling persons pursuant to our
Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws and the GCL, we have been informed that
in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore
unenforceable.

         In accordance with Section 102(b)(7) of the GCL, our Certificate of
Incorporation eliminates the personal liability of directors to us or to our
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director
with certain limited exceptions set forth in Section 102(b)(7). Our directors
are personally liable for liabilities incurred for breach of director's duty of
loyalty, for actions or omissions not in good faith, under Section 174 of the
GCL or for any transaction in which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.

ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED

         Not applicable.

ITEM 8. EXHIBITS

         The exhibits accompanying this registration statement are listed on the
accompanying exhibit index.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS

         (a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                  (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

                           (i) To include any prospectus required by Section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

                           (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any acts or events
arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease
in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered
would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or
high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the
aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change
in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;

                           (iii) To include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
statement or any material change to such information in the registration
statement;

                  Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do
not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3,
and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

                  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under
the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.

                  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.


                                      -5-
<PAGE>

         (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

         (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

(1)  This registration statement is being filed with the Securities and Exchange
     Commission to register 250,000 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per
     share, of the registrant ("Common Stock"), which may be issued upon the
     exercise of stock options under the Emerson Radio Corp. 2004 Non-Employee
     Outside Director Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"), 8,334 shares of which may
     be issued upon exercise of stock options or stock purchase rights that may
     be issued under the Plan and 241,666 shares of which may be issued upon
     exercise of stock options that have been issued under the Plan. In addition
     to such shares, this Registration Statement also covers additional shares
     of common stock as may be issuable pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions
     set forth in the Plan.
(2)  The proposed maximum offering price per share and the proposed maximum
     aggregate offering price are based on (i) estimates in accordance with Rule
     457(c) and Rule 457(h)(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
     "Securities Act"), with respect to 8,334 shares of Common Stock, which may
     be issued upon the exercise of stock options that may be issued under the
     Plan, and (ii) calculations in accordance with Rule 457(h)(1) of the
     Securities Act, with respect to 241,666 shares of Common Stock, which may
     be issued upon the exercise of stock options that have been issued under
     the Plan. See Footnote Nos. 4 and 6 below.
(3)  Represents an aggregate of 8,334 shares of Common Stock of the 250,000
     shares of Common Stock with respect to which this registration statement
     relates, which may be issued upon the exercise of stock options that may be
     issued under the Plan.
(4)  Estimated, in accordance with Rule 457(c) and Rule 457(h)(1) of the
     Securities Act, solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee.
     The proposed maximum offering price per share and the proposed maximum
     aggregate offering price are based on the average of the high and low
     prices for a share of Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange on March
     24, 2006, which is within five days prior to the date of this registration
     statement.
(5)  Represents an aggregate of 241,666 shares of Common Stock of the 250,000
     shares of Common Stock with respect to which this registration statement
     relates, which may be issued upon exercise of stock options that have been
     issued under the Plan.
(6)  Calculated in accordance with Rule 457(h)(1) of the Securities Act. The
     proposed maximum offering price per share and the proposed maximum
     aggregate offering price have been calculated based on the weighted-average
     exercise price of stock options that have been granted under the Plan.

reference is considered to be part of this registration statement, and

purpose of updating such description.

         All documents subsequently filed by us with the Securities and Exchange
Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act,
prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to this registration
statement, which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or
which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be
incorporated by reference in this registration statement and to be a part hereof
from the date of filing of such documents.

ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

         Not applicable.

                                      -3-
ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

         Not Applicable.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

         Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("GCL") provides
generally that a person sued as a director, officer, employee or agent of a
corporation may be indemnified by the corporation in nonderivative suits for
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation. In the case of criminal actions and proceedings, such person must
have had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Indemnification of expenses is authorized in stockholder derivative suits where
such person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and so long as he or she
had not been found liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his
or her duty to the corporation. Even in this latter instance, the court may
determine that in view of all the circumstances such person is entitled to
indemnification for such expenses as the court deems proper. A person sued as a
director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation who has been successful in
defense of the action must be indemnified by the corporation against expenses
(including attorney's fees).

         Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that we shall
indemnify any person to the full extent permitted by the GCL, as the same
exists, or as it may be amended. However, in the case of amendment, the
indemnification rights extend only to the extent that such amendment permits us
to provide broader indemnification rights than the GCL provided prior to such
amendment. Approval from the board of directors to initiate a suit against us is
a prerequisite for indemnification of such person initiating the suit. For our
officers and directors, advancement of expenses prior to a final disposition of
a proceeding is permitted only if such officer or director delivers to us a
written affirmation of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the
standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under the GCL and a written
affirmation, by or on behalf of such officer or director, to repay all amounts
so advanced if it should be determined ultimately that he or she is not entitled
to indemnification. Any indemnification or advance of expenses must be reported
to our stockholders in writing. If we do not pay a claim for indemnification
within ninety days after receipt of a written claim, a suit to recover the
unpaid amount may be brought by the person seeking indemnification. Such person,
if successful in whole or in part in his or her suit to compel indemnification,
will be entitled to the reasonable expenses of prosecuting such suit. We have
the power and authority to purchase and maintain insurance or another
arrangement against any claim, damage, loss or risk, regardless of whether we
have such power to indemnify under our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
and the GCL. All indemnification rights conferred by our Certificate of
Incorporation and Bylaws are not intended to apply to any of our predecessor
entities.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act may
be permitted to our directors, officers or controlling persons pursuant to our
Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws and the GCL, we have been informed that
in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore
unenforceable.

         In accordance with Section 102(b)(7) of the GCL, our Certificate of
Incorporation eliminates the personal liability of directors to us or to our
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director
with certain limited exceptions set forth in Section 102(b)(7). Our directors
are personally liable for liabilities incurred for breach of director's duty of
loyalty, for actions or omissions not in good faith, under Section 174 of the
GCL or for any transaction in which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.

                                      -4-
ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED

         Not applicable.

ITEM 8. EXHIBITS

         The exhibits accompanying this registration statement are listed on the
accompanying exhibit index.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS

         (a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                  (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

                           (i) To include any prospectus required by Section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

                           (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any acts or events
arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease
in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered
would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or
high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the
aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change
in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;

                           (iii) To include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
statement or any material change to such information in the registration
statement;

                  Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do
not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3,
and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

                  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under
the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.

                  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

                                      -5-
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

         (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

                                      -6-
