                           LYNCH CORPORATION ANNOUNCES
             RECORD DATE AND SUBSCRIPTION PRICE FOR RIGHTS OFFERING

GREENWICH, CONN, OCTOBER 26, 2005-- Lynch Corporation (ASE: LGL) today announced
that  is has set  Wednesday,  November  9,  2005,  as the  record  date  for its
previously  announced  rights  offering.  The offering will grant holders of the
company's common stock  transferable  subscription  rights to purchase shares of
the  Company's  common  stock at a  subscription  price of $7.25 per share.  The
subscription  price represents a discount of 37% from $11.51, the average of the
closing  prices of our  common  shares  over the 30 trading  day  period  ending
October  25, 2005 and a discount of 28% from  $10.00,  the closing  price of our
common shares on October 25, 2005.

Under the terms of the offering,  holders of the Company's  common stock will be
entitled to one transferable  subscription  right for each share of common stock
held on the record date,  November 9, 2005. Every three such rights will entitle
the  shareholder  to subscribe for one common share at a  subscription  price of
$7.25 per share.  The basic  subscription  rights will be  transferable.  If any
holders of subscription  rights do not exercise their basic subscription  rights
in full, the Company will permit stockholders on the record date who do exercise
their basic  subscription  rights in full to subscribe for up to an equal number
of additional shares at the same  subscription  price per share. In the event of
oversubscription,  the additional  common shares will be allocated on a pro rata
basis.

The Registration Statement for the rights offering has not yet become effective.
As soon as practicable  after the effective date of the Registration  Statement,
the Company  expects to mail to holders of common  stock as of the record date a
prospectus for the rights offering accompanied by a Subscription Certificate and
related  instructions  for exercising the rights.  The prospectus will contain a
description  of the rights  offering  and other  information.  The  subscription
rights will be exercisable for 30 days from the date the Registration  Statement
becomes effective, unless extended by the Company for up to 15 days.
