EMRISE CORPORATION RECEIVES FOLLOW-ON ORDER FOR POWER SUPPLIES FOR U.S. MILITARY VEHICLES

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, March 27, 2008 - EMRISE CORPORATION (NYSE Arca: ERI), a designer, manufacturer and marketer of proprietary electronic devices and communications equipment for aerospace, defense, industrial, and communications applications, today announced that it has received a $300,000 follow-on order from a major military systems integrator for power supply products for a ground-support program for U.S. military vehicles.

The $300,000 order adds to EMRISE’s success, as another customer recently placed an initial $200,000 order for similar power supply products for the Black Hawk helicopter.

The order was received by EMRISE’s subsidiary, RO Associates, Inc. (ROA), located in San Jose, CA. ROA manufactures and markets predominantly commercial power supply products. These orders reflect ROA’s increasing penetration into the military and aerospace markets.

EMRISE President and Chief Executive Carmine T. Oliva said, “This strategic program for U.S. military vehicles is a major, long-running program, so we expect orders to continue. We also believe the flow of orders from this military systems integrator reflects ROA’s growing stature and increasing presence in the military and aerospace markets.”

EMRISE subsidiaries-ROA in the U.S., and Pascall Electronics Ltd. and Xcel Power Systems in England-offer a range of military, aerospace and commercial electronic devices including power supplies, RF devices and integrated sub-system products. The combined technology and capability of this group of three EMRISE electronic device companies is now supporting broader penetration by all three subsidiaries into the U.S. and European markets.

Oliva added, “We feel that the resources of these three EMRISE subsidiaries offer excellent technology and product capabilities similar to larger U.S. and European electronic device companies, which helps to set them apart from many smaller U.S. and European companies in the industry.”
