EMRISE Corporation Receives Initial Production Order for Power Supply Products to Be Used in New International Military Aircraft

Follows Recent Completion of $850,000 Development Contract for
Multi-Year, Multi-Million Dollar Production Program
RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
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 it has received an initial $300,000
production order from a military systems integrator for power supplies
and control system sub-assemblies for use in a new international,
fixed-wing, military aircraft program. The company anticipates
receiving multiple follow-on production orders associated with this
project which could span multiple years and could provide millions of
dollars of additional business for EMRISE.

This initial production order, which is for immediate delivery, is
a direct follow-on order from an $850,000 development contract awarded
in mid-2007 to the Company's Pascall Electronics Ltd. ("Pascall")
subsidiary in England.

Carmine T. Oliva, President and CEO of EMRISE, commented, "Our
Pascall subsidiary has had significant success in recent months in
expanding its primary commercial business from In-Flight Entertainment
and Communications (IFC&E) products into the harsh environment,
military market for custom and commercial 'off the shelf' power
supplies and control sub-assemblies.

"In 2007, we implemented our strategy of extending Pascall's
commercial expertise into custom military programs that were more
typical of our Xcel Power Systems, Ltd. ('XPS') subsidiary in England,
whose business is predominantly military especially for the
Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft," Oliva added. "We believe the award of
this production order is continuing evidence of the synergy between
XPS and Pascall and it clearly demonstrates Pascall's ability to meet
challenging military development requirements within tight time frames
and to ultimately be awarded follow-on production orders for potential
multi-year, multi-million dollar programs."

Pascall and XPS continue to capitalize on their long-standing
presence in the fixed and rotary wing aircraft market. Recent orders
show the penetration that Pascall and XPS, and EMRISE's U.S.-based
power supply subsidiary RO Associates, are achieving by capturing
business in the larger programs for land-based military vehicles,
including the High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV or
Humvee), tracked vehicles, and tanks.

Pascall Electronics Ltd., located in England, offers a range of
innovative power conversion products. Its products and systems are
comprised of a number of custom, semi-custom and standard power supply
products including high and low voltage, high-specification,
high-reliability custom power supplies for hostile environments
predominantly for the commercial and military markets.
