Singing Machine Announces Transition at CFO Position.

Coconut Creek, FL, May 12, 2008 -- The Singing Machine Company (“Singing Machine” or the “Company”)(AMEX: SMD) announced that effective May 23, 2008 Danny Zheng will be resigning from his position as Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Citing a need to dedicate more time to pursue his Executive MBA at the Wharton School of Business and time for his family, Mr. Zheng and the Company elected to amicably sever Mr. Zheng’s active employment. Notwithstanding his resignation, Mr. Zheng has agreed to provide three months of consulting to assist the Company in the transition.

In addition, the Company is pleased to announce the hiring of Marcelo Paris, CPA, MBA, to the position of Financial Controller. Mr. Paris is joining the Singing Machine from Intermex Wire Transfer, an international wire transfer firm, where Mr. Paris served as Corporate Controller. Mr. Paris oversaw Intermex’s financial departments in Miami and throughout Latin America and brings a strong understanding of cash flow forecasting, budgeting, and working in international markets. While with Intermex, Mr. Paris improved the company’s A/R collection process resulting in increased cash flow. Mr. Paris will be the Company’s highest ranking financial official in Mr. Zheng’s absence.

“On behalf of the Company, I would like to thank Danny Zheng for his dedication and hard work,” said Anton Handal, CEO. “Danny has been instrumental in Singing Machine’s turn around; but now that the Company is on track to grow and be profitable, we will be looking to build on the new talent which has recently come on board.” Handal added, “We are excited to welcome Marcelo to the Singing Machine team. His experience, energy, and fresh outlook bring a new perspective and a fresh set of skills to our financial department. Marcelo’s technical knowledge of forecasting and budgeting, as well as his familiarity with international banking and markets, made him the obvious choice. I look forward to working with Marcelo to bring this Company to the next level.”
