Item 8.01 Other Events.

Emerson Radio Corp. (the “Company”) previously disclosed in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 8, 2016, that it had notified NYSE MKT that the Company was no longer in compliance with the audit committee composition requirements of Section 803(B)(2)(c) of the NYSE MKT Company Guide, which requires that the Audit Committee be comprised of at least two independent directors. The non-compliance was due to the resignation of two independent directors on June 2, 2016, and June 5, 2016, respectively, who had been serving on the Audit Committee. Following such resignations, the Audit Committee had been comprised of one member, Kareem E. Sethi, who is independent. As previously disclosed, on June 7, 2016, NYSE MKT sent the Company an official notification of non-compliance with Section 803(B)(2)(c) of the Company Guide.

As disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 23, 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed three new directors, Messrs. Christopher W. Ho, Michael Binney and Kin Yuen, effective as of June 19, 2016, to fill existing vacancies on the Board of Directors. Mr. Yuen was determined to be independent by the Board of Directors under the NYSE MKT listing standards and appointed a member of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Following Mr. Yuen’s appointment, the Company’s Audit Committee is now comprised of two independent directors, Messrs. Yuen and Sethi, with Mr. Sethi continuing as the Chairman of the Audit Committee.

On June 27, 2016, the Company received a letter from NYSE MKT confirming that the Company has resolved the continued listing deficiency described above and is now in compliance with the continued listing standards of the NYSE MKT.
