Press Release Summary: Unprecedented 60 Day Return Policy Sets New Accountability
Standard

Press Release Body: Recognizing that many buyers have grown increasingly weary and
frustrated by traditional hit-and-run sales tactics that often leaves them stuck
with dead inventory, Red Lion Interactive announced that it will offer a Product
Performance Guarantee on all video game accessory brands.

The Product Performance Guarantee grants any retailer or sub-distributor the ability
to return any 3rd party accessory inventory purchased from Red Lion, in any
quantity, within 60 days of purchase. Red Lion is the only distributor offering such
a guarantee program.

"Historically, distributors in the video game industry have offered very little
recourse regarding a product's market performance, " stated Red Lion's CEO, Tom
LaVoie. "A hit-and-run sales mentality has permeated our end of the industry with
distributors looking to make a fast and irreversible sale with no fall-back option
for the client."

Continued LaVoie: "What has been missing is a genuine concern for the client's
inventory turns and their long-term satisfaction with the supplier. The last thing
we want is for one of our clients to be stuck with dead inventory purchased from Red
Lion. We're looking for long-term partnerships, not quick-fix sales that leave our
clients stuck with underperforming product."

The Product Performance Guarantee continues Red Lion's goal of becoming the industry
leader in peripherals distribution and client satisfaction.
