Barnhill, Jr. (together with the other participants of the consent solicitation, the &#8220;Barnhill Participants&#8221;), one of the largest stockholders of TESSCO Technologies Incorporated (the &#8220;Company&#8221; or &#8220;TESSCO&#8221;) (NASDAQ:\u00a0 TESS), today announced that he has proposed a comprehensive settlement offer to TESCCO that would result in:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>A fully refreshed Board consisting of <span class=\"xn-person\">Emily Kellum Boss<\/span>, J. <span class=\"xn-person\">Timothy Bryan<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-person\">John W. Diercksen<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-person\">Stephanie Dismore<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-person\">Ronald D. McCray<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-person\">Kathleen McLean<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-person\">Sandip Mukerjee<\/span>;\n<\/li>\n<li>Mr. Barnhill, <span class=\"xn-person\">Jay Baitler<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-person\">John Beletic<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-person\">Paul Gaffney<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-person\">Cathy-Ann Martine-Dolecki<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-person\">Morton F. Zifferer<\/span> resigning effective immediately;\n<\/li>\n<li>Mr. Barnhill and Mr. Gaffney serving the Board in an advisory, non-voting capacity to assist in the transition;\n<\/li>\n<li>The Board adopting a policy allowing shareholders holding more than 5% of the outstanding stock to designate up to two directors (excluding Mr. Barnhill as one of these 5% shareholders);\n<\/li>\n<li>The Board enhancing its policy on diversity and inclusion;\n<\/li>\n<li>The Board amending TESSCO&#8217;s Bylaws to lower the threshold for shareholders to call a special meeting from 50% to 25%; and\n<\/li>\n<li>The Barnhill Participants agreeing to withdraw the consent solicitation, as well as certain voting commitments and standstill provisions through the 2021 annual meeting of shareholders.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8220;I am grateful that the shareholders have shown significant support for the need for change and I am making this offer as a critical first step in putting TESSCO back on the path to success.\u00a0 The industry expertise, talents and diversity represented by the new Board, along with the historical perspective of Mr. Gaffney and me, and the addition of two directors designated by shareholders, will best position the Board to implement a strategy for success,&#8221; noted Mr. Barnhill.<\/p>\n<p>While TESSCO touted very publicly its settlement offer, Mr Barnhill notes that it had significant undisclosed issues, including:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>It disregarded the strong feedback from shareholders that more change is needed and would effectively shortchange the shareholders that have pledged their support for the election of all of the Barnhill nominees.\n<\/li>\n<li>A precondition unique to the two Barnhill independent nominees that TESSCO proposed be added to the Board as part of the settlement (Mr. Bryan and Ms. McLean) which required that before taking their seats, they had to tender resignation letters. The effect of this requirement is that these independent nominees would be on the Board for two years \u2013 or less &#8211; regardless of shareholder wishes. This point was omitted by the Company in their press release. \u00a0\n<\/li>\n<li>Completely ignored Mr. Barnhill&#8217;s proposed concept of shareholders owning 5% or more of the outstanding stock being able to designate up to two individuals for election to the Board.\n<\/li>\n<li>The offer contained an overly restrictive voting requirement and an unacceptably long two-year standstill effectively denying Mr. Barnhill&#8217;s rights as a shareholder and designed to entrench the Board.\n<\/li>\n<li>Mr. Zifferer (who, as we previously discussed, adopted the strange position of staying on the Board until the end of the consent solicitation) would stay on the Board until the end of December of this year.\n<\/li>\n<li>There was no commitment that the reconstituted Board, as designed by the Company&#8217;s settlement, would not, again, add more directors without listening to the views of the TESSCO&#8217;s shareholders and input from new directors.\u00a0\n<\/li>\n<li>The Board did not constructively engage as they have touted. They didn&#8217;t respond to Mr. Barnhill&#8217;s last settlement offer for almost three weeks and then only after proxy advisory firms had weighed in.\u00a0 Again, this is the same Board that added directors halfway through a consent solicitation and on the same day they presented to ISS. And this is the same Board that initially rejected Mr. Barnhill&#8217;s proposed nominees, then pursued a feigned attempt at interviewing the nominees before ultimately offering two of them Board seats subject to specious requirements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Mr. Barnhill has filed a copy of his proposed term sheet with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#8220;SEC&#8221;), which\u00a0can be accessed at no charge at the SEC&#8217;s website at <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3002490-1&amp;h=1587546127&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sec.gov%2F&amp;a=www.sec.gov\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">www.sec.gov<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>Important Additional Information<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Mr. Barnhill, Ms. McLean, Ms. Boss, Mr. Bryan, Mr. Diercksen, UA <span class=\"xn-chron\">6-9-2016<\/span><span class=\"xn-person\">Robert B.
