Clinton Group Distributes Presentation to ValueVision Media Stockholders

NEW YORK, May 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Clinton Group, Inc. ("Clinton Group") announced today that it has distributed a slide presentation regarding its campaign to replace a majority of the board of directors of ValueVision Media, Inc. VVTV. Clinton Group has nominated six independent professionals for the Board of Directors of ValueVision and is soliciting votes from fellow ValueVision shareholders for the election of these individuals at ValueVision's annual meeting, which is scheduled for June 18, 2014.

"We believe the objective evidence of the ValueVision's underperformance is clear," said Gregory P. Taxin, President of Clinton Group, Inc. "Perhaps worse is the lack of an ambitious plan to make optimal use of the Company's uncommon and valuable asset, its distribution agreements with the major cable and satellite companies in the United States. We believe our nominees can help to create significant shareholder value by implementing the detailed plan outlined in our presentation."

Clinton Group urges its fellow stockholders to review the definitive proxy materials and the presentation on ValueVision Media, both of which are available at www.AddValueAndVision.com and to vote for change at the annual meeting. The Clinton Group's presentation on ValueVision Media is available directly at http://bit.ly/TTprEX.
