Important Notice of Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on November 10, 2009.
Our proxy materials including our Proxy Statement for the 2009 Annual Meeting, 2009 Annual Report to Stockholders (which contains our Annual Report onForm 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2009) and proxy card are available on the Internet athttp://www.amstock.com/proxyservices/viewmaterial.asp?CoNumber=02008.
VOTING PROCEDURES AND REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES
 
The accompanying proxy card is designed to permit each of our stockholders as of the record date to vote on each of the proposals properly brought before the annual meeting. As of the record date, there were 27,129,832 shares of our common stock, par value $.01 per share, issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the annual meeting. Each outstanding share of our common stock is entitled to one vote.
 
The holders of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock, present in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the annual meeting. If a quorum is not present, the annual meeting may be adjourned from time to time until a quorum is obtained. Assuming that a quorum is present, directors will be elected by a plurality vote and the teneight nominees who receive the most votes will be elected. There is no right to cumulate votes in the election of directors. The ratification of the appointment of Moore Stephens, P.C.MSPC. as our independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending March 31, 20092010 will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present and entitled to vote with respect to such proposal.
 
Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present and do not have an effect on the election of directors. Abstentions, but not

3


broker non-votes, are treated as shares present and entitled to vote, and will be counted as a “no” vote on all other matters. Broker non-votes are treated as not entitled to vote, and so reduce the absolute number, but not the percentage of votes needed for approval of a matter. As of the record date, The Grande Holdings Limited (“Grande Holdings”) had the indirect power to vote approximately 57.6% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, and Grande Holdings has advised us that they intend to attend the annual meeting and intend to vote in favor of each of the proposals. As a result, we expect that we will have a quorum present at the annual meeting and that each of the proposals will be approved. Holders of our common stock will not have any dissenters’ rights of appraisal in connection with any of the matters to be voted on at the annual meeting.
 
The accompanying proxy card provides space for you to vote in favor of, or to withhold voting for: (i) the nominees for the Board of Directors and (ii) the ratification of the appointment of Moore Stephens, P.C.MSPC as


independent registered public accountants of Emerson for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2009.2010. Our Board of Directors urges you to complete, sign, date and return the proxy card in the accompanying envelope, which is postage prepaid for mailing in the United States.
 
When a signed proxy card is returned with choices specified with respect to voting matters, the proxies designated on the proxy card will vote the shares in accordance with the stockholder’s instructions. The proxies we have designated for the stockholders are Greenfield Pitts and Andrew L. Davis. If you desire to name another person as your proxy, you may do so by crossing out the names of the designated proxies and inserting the names of the other persons to act as your proxies. In that case, it will be necessary for you to sign the proxy card and deliver it to the person named as your proxy and for the named proxy to be present and vote at the annual meeting. Proxy cards so marked should not be mailed to us.
 
If you sign your proxy card and return it to us and you have made no specifications with respect to voting matters, your shares will be voted FOR: (i) the election of the nominees for director and (ii) the ratification of the appointment of Moore Stephens, P.C.MSPC as our independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending March 31, 20092010 and, at the discretion of the proxies designated by us, on any other matter that may properly come before the annual meeting or any adjournment(s).
 
You have the unconditional right to revoke your proxy at any time prior to the voting of the proxy by taking any act inconsistent with the proxy. Acts inconsistent with the proxy include notifying our Secretary in writing of your revocation, executing a subsequent proxy, or personally appearing at the annual meeting and casting a contrary vote. However, no revocation shall be effective unless at or prior to the annual meeting we have received notice of such revocation.
 
At least ten (10) days before the annual meeting, we will make a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting open to the examination of any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
 This discussion presents the principles underlying
Summary Compensation Table
The following Summary Compensation Table sets forth information concerning compensation for services rendered in all capacities to us and our subsidiaries for Fiscal 2009 and Fiscal 2008 which was awarded to, earned by or paid to each person who served as our principal executive officer compensation program. Our goal in this discussion is to provideat any time during Fiscal 2009 and the reasons why we award compensation as we do and to place in perspective the data presented in the tables that follow this discussion. The focus is primarily on compensation of our executive officers for Fiscal 2008, but some historical and forward-looking information is also provided to put such year’s compensation information in context. The information presented herein relates to Adrian Ma, our Chief Executive Officer, Greenfield Pitts, our Chief Financial Officer, John Spielberger, our President — North American Operations, and our two other most highly compensated executive officers other than the principal executive officer who served during Fiscal 2008, who are sometimes referred to herein as our “named executive officers”, although Mr. Ma did not receive any salary or other compensation from us in Fiscal 2008. Messrs. Raab

17


and Will retired or resigned from their positionswere serving as executive officers of our company in August 2007 and December 2007, respectively.
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
          We attempt to apply a consistent philosophy to compensation for all employees, including senior management. This philosophy is based on the premises that our success is dependent upon the efforts of each employee and that a cooperative, team-oriented environment is an essential part of our culture.
          Our compensation programs for our named executive officers are designed to achieve a variety of goals, including:
attracting and retaining talented and experienced executives;
motivating and rewarding executives whose knowledge, skills and performance are critical to our success;
aligning the interests of our executives and stockholders by motivating executives to increase stockholder value in a sustained manner; and
provide a competitive compensation package which rewards achievement of our goals.
Elements of Executive Officer Compensation
Overview. Total compensation paid to our named executive officers is influenced significantly by the need to attract and retain management employees with a high level of expertise and to motivate and retain key executives for our long-term success. Some of the components of compensation, such as salary, are generally fixed and do not vary based on our financial and other performance. Some components, such as bonus, stock options and stock award grants, if any, are discretionary and are dependent upon the achievement of certain goals jointly agreed upon by our management and our Board of Directors. Furthermore, the value of certain of these components, such as stock options and stock awards, is dependent upon our future stock price. Our Board of Directors has indicated that it currently does not intend to grant new stock awards to our executive officer and employees. However, the Board of Directors does intend to grant stock awards to non-employee directors and may in the future change its current policy with respect to stock awards to executive officers and employees.
          We compensate our named executive officers in these different ways in order to achieve different goals. Cash compensation, for example, provides executive officers a minimum base salary. Incentive bonus compensation is generally linked to the achievement of financial and business goals, and is intended to reward executive officers for our overall performance in reaching annual goals that would be agreed to by management and the Board of Directors. Although we may utilize, stock options and grants of restricted stock in the future, we did not

18


grant any stock options or restricted stock to our executive officers during Fiscal 2008. See “—Cash and Other Compensation.”
          We view the three components of our named executive officer compensation as related but distinct. We do not believe that compensation derived from one component of compensation necessarily should negate or reduce compensation from other components. We determine the appropriate level for each compensation component based in part, but not exclusively, on its historical practices with the individual and our view of individual performance and other information we deem relevant. Our Board of Directors has not engaged an outside consultant to assist the Board in the compensation process. Our management does review publicly available data with respect to executive compensation at peer group companies. The Board of Directors realizes that benchmarking our compensation against the compensation earned at comparable companies may not always be appropriate, but believes that engaging in a comparative analysis of compensation practices is useful. The Board of Directors has not adopted any formal policies or guidelines for allocating compensation between long-term and currently paid out compensation, between cash and non-cash compensation, or among different forms of compensation. We have not reviewed wealth and retirement accumulation as a result of employment with us, and have only focused on compensation for the year in question.
Base Salary. We pay our current named executive officers other than Mr. Ma a base salary, which we review and determine annually, and currently are considering paying Mr. Ma a base salary for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2009. We believe that a competitive base salary is a necessary element of any compensation program. We believe that attractive base salaries can motivate and reward executives for their overall performance. Base salaries are established in part based on2009 (collectively, the individual position, responsibility, experience, skills and expected contributions during the coming year of the executive and their performance during the prior year. We also have sought to align base compensation levels comparable to our competitors and other companies in similar stages of development. We do not view base salaries as primarily serving our objective of paying for performance, but in attracting and retaining the most qualified executives necessary to run our business.“Named Executive Officers”).
 Cash Incentive Bonuses.Consistent with our emphasis on pay-for-performance incentive compensation programs, our named executive officers are eligible to receive annual performance bonuses or discretionary bonuses that must be approved by our Board of Directors. The primary objective of our annual cash incentive bonuses is to motivate and reward our employees, including our named executive officers, for meeting our short-term objectives using a pay-for-performance program with objectively determinable performance goals. Our Corporate Governance, Nominating and Compensation Committee considered and slightly modified proposals for bonuses for Fiscal 2008 provided to it by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. After further consideration, bonuses for Fiscal 2008 were paid and approved and ratified by our Board of Directors in August 2008. We do not have a formal policy on the effect on bonuses of a subsequent restatement or other adjustment to the financial statements, other than the penalties provided by law.

 Equity Compensation. We review our equity compensation plans annually. Under our plans, employees are eligible for annual stock option and restricted stock award grants based on

19


targeted levels and we have in the past granted stock options to our executive officers and employees. These options and grants are intended to produce value for each executive officer if (i) our stockholders derive significant sustained value; and (ii) the executive officer remains with us. We do not have any program, plan or obligation that requires us to grant equity compensation to any executive officer on specified dates. The authority to make equity grants to executive officers rests with the Board of Directors, although, as noted above, the Board of Directors does not currently intend to grant any new stock awards to our executive officers or employees. We did not grant any stock options or restricted stock awards during Fiscal 2008. See “—Cash and Other Compensation.”
Severance and Change-in-Control Benefits.
 We do not provide to any of our named executive officers any severance or change in control benefits in the event of termination or retirement, whether following a change-in-control or otherwise.
Employment Agreements.
          During Fiscal 2008, we had employment agreements with certain of our named executive officers, each of which is described below.
          Greenfield Pitts, our Chief Financial Officer, entered into an employment agreement with us on April 3, 2007, which provides that Mr. Pitts shall serve as our Chief Financial Officer through March 31, 2008. John Spielberger, our President-North American Operations, entered into an employment agreement with us on October 15, 2007, which provides that Mr. Spielberger shall serve as our President-North American Operations from October 29, 2007 through October 31, 2008. During the initial term of each employment agreement, we have the right to terminate the agreement upon 90 days prior written notice, and the named executive officer has the right to terminate the agreement upon 30 days prior written notice. Each agreement provides for an annual base salary of $250,000 and a discretionary bonus at the end of our fiscal year as recommended by the Board of Directors.
          We were a party to a series of employment contracts, the last of which expired on August 31, 2007, with John J. Raab, our former Chief Operating Officer and Senior Executive Vice President. In addition, we were a party to an employment contract with Eduard Will, who served as our President — North American Operations from July 2006 until his resignation from such position in October 2007. Compensation paid to each of Messrs. Raab and Will during Fiscal 2008 and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 (“Fiscal 2007”) is set forth below.
Benefits. The named executive officers participate in all of our employee benefit plans, such as medical and 401(k) plan, on the same basis as our other employees.
Perquisites. Our use of perquisites as an element of compensation is very limited. We do not view perquisites as a significant element of our comprehensive compensation structure.

20


The Process
          Employment terms, including compensation, typically have been proposed to the Board of Directors by our Chairman and our Chief Executive Officer, and then considered and approved by the Board of Directors. We expect that, the charter for our recently established Corporate Governance, Nominating and Compensation Committee will provide that employment terms, including compensation, will be proposed to such committee by our Chairman and our Chief Executive Officer, and then considered and recommended for approval by the Board of Directors. For decisions regarding the grant of bonuses to named executive officers (other than our Chairman and our Chief Executive Officer) for Fiscal 2008, the Corporate Governance, Nominating and Compensation Committee has considered the recommendations of our Chairman and our Chief Executive Officer and included them in their discussions.
Regulatory Considerations
          We account for the equity compensation expense for our employees under the rules of SFAS 123(R), which requires us to estimate and record an expense for each award of equity compensation over the service period of the award. Accounting rules also require us to record cash compensation as an expense at the time the obligation is accrued.
Cash and Other Compensation
     The following table, which should be read in conjunction with the explanations provided above, provides certain compensation information concerning our named executive officers for Fiscal 2008 and Fiscal 2007.
