<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>The Board of Directors of Ampex Corporation, a Delaware corporation (referred to throughout this proxy statement as "Ampex," the
"Company," "we" or "our"), is soliciting your proxy to vote at the 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held at The Peninsula Hotel, located at 700 Fifth Avenue and 55th Street, New York, New
York 10019, on Friday, June&nbsp;10, 2005 at 10:00&nbsp;a.m. (the "2005 Annual Meeting" or the "Meeting"). Only holders of record of our Class&nbsp;A Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share
("Class&nbsp;A Stock"), at the close of business on April&nbsp;20, 2005 will be entitled to vote. This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card or voter instruction form were first mailed
to stockholders on or about April&nbsp;29, 2005. An Annual Report containing all the information specified under the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") was mailed
to each stockholder concurrently with a copy of this proxy statement.</B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Only holders of record of our Class&nbsp;A Stock at the close of business on April&nbsp;20, 2005 (the "Record Date") are entitled to notice of, and to vote
at, the 2005 Annual Meeting. At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 3,700,378 shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock outstanding and entitled to vote, and no shares held in treasury. The
presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock entitled to vote at the Meeting (1,850,190 shares) will constitute a quorum
for the transaction of business. On all matters to be voted upon at the Meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof, each holder of Class&nbsp;A Stock will be entitled to one vote for each
share held as of the Record Date. Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast in the election of directors. Shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock may not be voted cumulatively for the election
of directors. Approval of Proposal No.&nbsp;2 and Proposal No.&nbsp;3 will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock present, in person or by
proxy, and entitled to vote at the Meeting. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
you properly sign and return the enclosed proxy card, your shares represented thereby will be voted. If you specify in the proxy card how your shares are to be voted, they will be
voted as specified. If you do not specify how your shares are to be voted, the persons named as proxy holders on the proxy card will vote in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of
Directors. The Board's
recommendations are set forth below the description of each proposal in this proxy statement. In summary, the Board recommends a vote: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;All
of the foregoing matters have been proposed by Ampex, and none of them are related to or conditioned on the approval of any other matters. With respect to any other matters that
properly come before the Meeting, the proxy holders will vote as recommended by the Board or, if no recommendation is given, in their own discretion. </FONT></P>

transfer agent will tabulate all votes cast. Abstentions will be counted as present in determining whether a quorum exists, but will have the same effect as a vote against a proposal
(other than with respect to the proposal relating to the election of directors). Brokerage firms, banks and other nominees have authority to vote their customers' unvoted shares on some "routine"
matters. We believe that Proposal 1 and Proposal 3 are routine matters, and Proposal 2 is a non-routine matter. If </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ampex is soliciting proxies in the enclosed form, and will pay the expenses of soliciting such proxies. Following the original mailing of the proxies and other
soliciting materials, Ampex and/or its agents may also solicit proxies by mail, telephone, telegraph, facsimile or in person. We do not currently expect that we will retain a proxy solicitation firm.
Following the original mailing of the proxies and other soliciting materials, we will request brokers, custodians, nominees and other record holders of our Class&nbsp;A Stock to forward copies of
the proxy and other soliciting materials to persons for whom they hold shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock and to request authority for the exercise of proxies. In such cases, upon the request of the
record holders, we will reimburse such holders for their reasonable expenses. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
you sign a proxy in the form accompanying this proxy statement, you will have the power to revoke it prior to the 2005 Annual Meeting, or at the Meeting prior to the vote pursuant to
the proxy. You may revoke your proxy by: (i)&nbsp;delivering a written notice to the Company stating that the proxy is revoked; (ii)&nbsp;executing a subsequent proxy in the same name and
presenting it at the Meeting; or (iii)&nbsp;attending the Meeting and voting in person. If your shares are held of record by a bank, broker or other nominee (i.e., in "street name") and you wish to
vote at the Meeting, you must obtain from the record holder a proxy issued in your name. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ampex is a leading innovator and licensor of visual information technology. During our 60-year history, we have developed substantial proprietary
technology relating to the electronic storage, processing and retrieval of data, particularly images. We currently hold approximately 600 patents and patent applications covering digital
image-processing, digital image compression and recording technologies. We leverage our investment in technology through our corporate licensing division, which licenses our patents to manufacturers
of consumer electronics products. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Ampex Data Systems Corporation ("Data Systems"), we also incorporate this technology in the design and manufacture of very high
performance data storage products, principally used in intelligence gathering and defense applications to gather digital images and other data from aircraft, satellites and submarines. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
have two business segments, which we refer to as our Recorders segment and our Licensing segment. Our Recorders segment primarily includes the sale and service of data acquisition and
instrumentation recorders (which record data, principally images rather than computer information), and to a lesser extent mass data storage products, all of which are made by our manufacturing
subsidiary, Data Systems. Our Licensing segment involves the licensing of our intellectual property to manufacturers of consumer digital video products through our corporate licensing division. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
incorporated in Delaware in January&nbsp;1992 as the successor to a business originally organized in 1944. References to "Ampex," the "Company," "we" or "our" include subsidiaries
and predecessors of Ampex Corporation, unless the context indicates otherwise. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B> Background  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The number of directors comprising our full Board of Directors is five, divided into three classes, designated Class&nbsp;I, Class&nbsp;II and
Class&nbsp;III. The Class&nbsp;I directors (Edward J. Bramson and William A. Stoltzfus, Jr.) were elected at the 2004 Annual Meeting of Stockholders for three-year terms that will
expire at the 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Class&nbsp;II director (Douglas T. McClure, Jr.) to be elected at the 2005 Annual Meeting will serve for a three-year term that
will expire at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Class&nbsp;III directors (Craig L. McKibben and Peter Slusser) were elected at the 2003 Annual Meeting of Stockholders for
three-year terms that will expire at the 2006 Annual Meeting. A director may not be removed from office before the expiration of his elected term except for cause, and only with the
approval of the holders of a least 80% of the Company's voting stock. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our
current Class&nbsp;II director, Mr.&nbsp;McClure, has been nominated for reelection as Class&nbsp;II director by a majority of the independent directors serving on the Board.
(See "Board and Committee Meetings&#151;Nominations for Directors," below.) Following the 2005 Annual Meeting, we will have two Class&nbsp;I directors, one Class&nbsp;II director and two
Class&nbsp;III directors constituting the full Board. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Election of Class&nbsp;II Director  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At the 2005 Annual Meeting, stockholders will elect one Class&nbsp;II director who will hold office until the 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until his
successor has been elected and qualified or until his earlier resignation, removal for cause or death. The Class&nbsp;II director will be elected by a plurality vote of the holders of Class&nbsp;A
Stock represented and voting at the Meeting. Shares represented by the accompanying proxy will be voted for the election of the nominee recommended by our management, unless the proxy is marked in
such a manner as to withhold authority to so vote. If a nominee for any reason is unable to serve or for good cause will not serve, the Board may designate a substitute nominee, in which case the
persons named as proxies will vote for the substitute nominee designated by the Board. We are not aware that our nominee will be unable to, or for good cause will not, serve as director. </FONT></P>

The functions of the Audit Committee are described below under the heading "Report of the Audit Committee," and its charter is attached to this proxy statement as Annex A. The Audit
Committee met seven times during fiscal 2004. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Compensation Committee.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Messrs.&nbsp;McClure, Slusser and Stoltzfus are currently members of the Compensation Committee.
The Compensation Committee determines salaries and other compensation for our executive officers (except for compensation under the 1992 Stock Incentive Plan and the 2000 Stock Bonus Plan, which is
determined by the Stock Incentive Plan Committee and the Stock Bonus Plan Committee, respectively). Mr.&nbsp;Bramson resigned from the Compensation Committee in March&nbsp;2005. Prior to his
resignation, Mr.&nbsp;Bramson abstained from decisions regarding his own compensation. The Compensation Committee met twice during fiscal 2004. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stock Incentive Plan Committee.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Messrs.&nbsp;McClure, Slusser and Stoltzfus are currently members of the Stock Incentive
Plan Committee. The function of the Stock Incentive Plan Committee is to administer our 1992 Stock Incentive Plan and any successor or additional stock incentive plans. The Stock Incentive Plan
Committee met four times during fiscal 2004. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stock Bonus Plan Committee.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Messrs.&nbsp;McClure, Slusser and Stoltzfus are currently members of the Stock Bonus Plan
Committee. The Stock Bonus Plan Committee administers and has the power to interpret our 2000 Stock Bonus Plan. Upon recommendation of management, the Stock Bonus Plan Committee has the power to
determine the individuals eligible to receive awards under the 2000 Stock Bonus Plan, and the terms of those awards, subject to the limits set forth in the 2000 Stock Bonus Plan. The Stock Bonus Plan
Committee did not meet during fiscal 2004. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Nominations for Directors.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Board does not have a nominating committee or a committee performing a similar function.
Nominations for election to the Board of Directors are made by a majority of the "independent" directors (within the meaning of the Nasdaq listing standards) serving on the Board. These directors
currently are Messrs.&nbsp;McClure, Slusser and Stoltzfus. During 2003, our Class&nbsp;A Stock ceased to be listed on AMEX and is currently listed for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board.
Accordingly, we are not subject to any exchange rules requiring our Board to designate a nominating committee. Current AMEX and Nasdaq rules permit Board nominations to be made by a majority of
independent directors. In view of these facts, the Board has determined that it is appropriate not to have a separate nominating committee. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
independent directors operate under the Company's </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Policy Regarding Director Nominations and Stockholder Communications with the Board</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>,
rather than a formal charter, and this policy is available on our website (</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>www.ampex.com</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>). As set forth in the policy, the independent directors review
the composition of the Board at least annually, and recommend nominees for election to the Board at each Annual Meeting of Stockholders, or to fill vacancies as they occur. The independent directors
identify and evaluate potential nominees by considering candidates recommended by the Company's Board, management, stockholders or third parties, which may from time to time include executive or other
search firms. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stockholders
may recommend director candidates by submitting the name and pertinent information about each candidate to the Board in accordance with the procedures described below under
"Stockholder Communications with the Board." The independent directors will consider such candidates, and will evaluate them on the same basis as candidates recommended by the Board, management or
third parties. Stockholders of record may also nominate directors for election to the Board by following the procedures described in our By-Laws. </FONT></P>

independent directors also consider such other relevant factors as they deem appropriate, including the current Board composition, whether the candidate would qualify as independent
and/or as an "audit committee financial expert," the candidate's other board service and business and professional commitments, and potential conflicts of interest. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Stockholder Communications with the Board  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As described above, our Board of Directors has adopted a </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Policy Regarding Director Nominations and Stockholder Communications with the
Board</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>, a copy of which is available on our website (</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>www.ampex.com</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>). Under the policy, stockholders who wish to contact the Board
or any individual Board members may do so by writing to the Company's Secretary, Joel D. Talcott, Esq., at 1228 Douglas Avenue, Redwood City, CA 94063. The Secretary will collect and organize all
stockholder communications, and determine which of them will be relayed to the Board or individual members, as appropriate, depending upon the specific facts and circumstances outlined in each
communication, and any processing instructions that the Secretary may have received from time to time from the Board or individual Board members. For example, communications relating to the Company's
accounting, internal controls and auditing matters may be referred to the Audit Committee or its individual members for review. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Directors' Compensation  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Directors who are officers of Ampex receive no additional compensation for serving on our Board of Directors or any Board committee. For 2004, we paid a quarterly
retainer to non-employee directors of $5,000 each for service on the Board and Board committees, and reimbursed them for their related out-of-pocket expenses. We
also granted to each non-employee director a nonqualified option to acquire 10,000 shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock, at an exercise price of $1.90 per share. These options will become vested
in full on the date of the 2005 Annual Meeting, and will expire 15&nbsp;months thereafter. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During fiscal 2004, Messrs.&nbsp;Bramson, McClure, Slusser and Stoltzfus served as members of the Board's Compensation Committee. Although Mr.&nbsp;Bramson,
our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, resigned from the Compensation Committee in March&nbsp;2005, he served as one of its members during fiscal 2004, but did not participate in decisions of the
Compensation Committee with respect to his own compensation. During our 2004 fiscal year, we held certain secured promissory notes issued by First Jeffson Corporation ("FJC") and Second Jeffson
Corporation ("SJC"), each of which is an affiliated corporation controlled by Mr.&nbsp;Bramson. In March&nbsp;2004, we foreclosed on the collateral securing the FJC notes, and received certain
other assets in connection with the foreclosure. We also invested approximately $1.0&nbsp;million and engaged in certain other transactions with HIP-IV and its affiliates, each of which
entities is also affiliated with Messrs.&nbsp;Bramson and McKibben. These transactions are more fully described below under the caption "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions." </FONT></P>

<BR></FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>PROPOSAL NO. 2&#151;AMENDMENT OF 1992 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN    <BR>    </B></FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our 1992 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended through April&nbsp;19, 2005 (the "Plan"), provides for the granting of stock options and stock appreciation rights
with respect to our Class&nbsp;A Stock to directors, executive officers and other key employees, as well as to certain consultants, advisors and service providers. A detailed description of the Plan
is set forth below. As currently in effect, the Plan permits the issuance of up to 412,500 shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock upon exercise of awards granted under the Plan. On March&nbsp;18, 2005, our
Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Plan to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan from 412,500 to 712,500 (the "Plan Amendment"), subject to approval by our
stockholders at the 2005 Annual Meeting. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
purpose of the Plan is to provide incentives for participating employees to maximize stockholder value and to provide compensation to participants that is based on our performance,
as measured by the price of our Class&nbsp;A Stock. Through the Plan, the long-range interests of key employees are aligned with the interests of our stockholders as these employees
build an ownership interest in the Company. We believe that the Plan has been a very important compensation vehicle and that the number of shares available for issuance must be increased to enable us
to attract and retain highly qualified employees. In recommending the Plan Amendment, the Board considered a variety of factors, including the limited availability of shares available for option
grants under the Plan, and the fact that we have not requested any similar increases under the Plan since 1999. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
of March&nbsp;31, 2005, we had approximately 39,292 shares available for option grants under the Plan, and approximately 215,475 shares subject to issuance upon the exercise of
outstanding stock options granted under the Plan. Together, these shares represent approximately 7% of our total outstanding Class&nbsp;A Stock as of that date. If the proposed increase is approved,
this percentage will increase to approximately 15%. The 300,000 share increase represents approximately 8% of the Company's total outstanding Class&nbsp;A Stock as of March&nbsp;31, 2005. The
Board believes that the proposed Plan Amendment is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our
executive officers and directors have an interest in approval of this Proposal, because additional shares will be available for grants of awards to these individuals under the Plan
if this Proposal is approved. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Set forth below is a summary of the principal features of the Plan. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Background.</I></B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The purpose of the Plan is to secure for Ampex and our stockholders the benefits arising
from the ownership of Ampex stock options and stock appreciation rights by directors and key employees (including officers) of Ampex (and of any parent or subsidiary corporations) who are expected to
contribute to our future growth and success. The Plan was adopted by our Board of Directors and stockholders on July&nbsp;16, 1992, and provided for the granting of awards until July&nbsp;15,
2002. At the 1995, 1996 and 1999 Annual Meetings of Stockholders, the stockholders approved amendments to the Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the Plan, most
recently to 8,250,000 shares. At the 2002 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the stockholders approved an amendment to the Plan to extend the termination date of the Plan for an additional ten years, to
May&nbsp;23, 2012. In 2003, we effected a one-for-twenty reverse stock split, as a result of which the maximum number of shares available for issuance under the Plan was
reduced from 8,250,000 to 412,500. On April&nbsp;19, 2005, we amended the Plan to conform to new rules relating to deferred compensation under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004. See "New Law
Affecting Deferred Compensation." The Plan is administered by the Stock Incentive Plan Committee of our Board of Directors (the "Committee"). See "Board and Committee Meetings," above. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effective Date and Duration of the Plan.</I></B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Plan became effective on July&nbsp;16, 1992, the date
of its approval by the Company's Board of Directors and stockholders. On May&nbsp;24, 2002, the termination date of the Plan was extended until the earlier of (i)&nbsp;May&nbsp;23, 2012, which
is the day before the tenth anniversary of its adoption by our Board and stockholders, or (ii)&nbsp;the date on which all shares available for issuance under the Plan have been issued pursuant to
the exercise of awards granted under the Plan. Awards may be granted under the Plan at any time before the termination date of the Plan. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Types of Awards.</I></B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under the Plan, we may grant awards with respect to a maximum of 412,500 shares of
our Class&nbsp;A Stock ("Awards"), subject to adjustment as provided in the Plan. This number will increase to 712,500 if the Plan Amendment is approved at the Annual Meeting. Awards may be either
options ("Options") or stock appreciation rights ("Rights"). Options may be either incentive stock options ("ISOs") meeting the requirements of Section&nbsp;422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), or non-qualified stock options ("NQSOs") not meeting the requirements of Section&nbsp;422 of the Code. Rights may be either an alternative to or in tandem with
the exercise of all or any portion of an Option granted to a Rights holder ("Tandem Rights") or independent of any Options granted ("Non-Tandem Rights"). We do not receive any payments
from Award recipients upon the grant of Awards. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An
Option entitles the holder thereof to purchase shares of our Class&nbsp;A Stock upon exercise of the Option and payment of the exercise price. A Right entitles the holder thereof to
receive, upon exercise of the Right, shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock equal in value to the difference between the fair market value on the date of grant of the number of shares covered by the Right and
the fair market value of such shares on the date of exercise plus cash for any fractional share. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Eligibility.</I></B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Awards may be granted to officers, employees, directors, consultants, advisors and other
service providers of Ampex or of any "parent" or "subsidiary" of Ampex (as defined in the Plan). However, only employees may receive ISOs, and consultants, advisors and service providers who receive
awards must have provided bona fide services to Ampex, other than in connection with the offer and sale of securities in a capital raising transaction. As of March&nbsp;31, 2005, 113 employees

who are also directors), three non-employee directors and two consultants were eligible to receive Awards. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Terms of Awards.</I></B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Committee determines who will receive each
Award, the number of shares subject to each Award, the grant date, the exercise price, the expiration date, the vesting and other terms and conditions of the Award. For NQSOs, the exercise price must
be at least equal to 100% of the fair market value per share of our Class&nbsp;A Stock on the date the NQSO is granted. For ISOs, the exercise price also must be at least equal to 100% of such fair
market value on the date of grant, or 110% of such fair market value for an ISO granted to a person owning 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock or the stock of
any parent or subsidiary of Ampex (a "10% Stockholder"). On March&nbsp;31, 2005, the fair market value of our Class&nbsp;A Stock was $40.00 per share. Awards granted under the Plan must be
exercised within ten years of the grant date, except that an ISO granted to a 10% Stockholder must be exercised within five years of the grant date. Unless otherwise specified by the Committee for a
particular Award, Awards vest over four years at the rate of 25% each year after the date of grant, provided that the Award recipient is continuously employed by us during that time. Each Award is
evidenced by a Stock Option Agreement (for Options) or a Rights Agreement (for Rights). At the 1995 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the stockholders approved an amendment of the Plan that limits
awards under the Plan to any participant during a fiscal year to 1,663,645 shares (representing 5% of the shares of Common Stock that were outstanding as of the date the amendment was approved). This
award limit was subsequently adjusted to 83,182 shares as a result of the 2003 reverse stock split. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To
exercise an Award, the holder must deliver to us a written notice of exercise along with full payment required for exercise (if applicable). For shares purchased upon exercise of an
Option, payment may be made in any manner specified by the Committee and permissible under applicable law. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
an Award holder's employment or other association with us is terminated for any reason, any outstanding Award, to the extent that it was exercisable on the date of such termination,
may be
exercised by the holder within three months after such termination (or such shorter time as may be specified in the Award agreement), but in no event later than the expiration of the Award. If an
Award holder's association with us is terminated because of the holder's death or disability, an Award may be exercised within twelve months after such termination (or such shorter time as may be
specified in the Award Agreement), but in no event later than the expiration of the Award. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Amendment of the Plan.</I></B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Committee may amend the Plan at any time and in any respect, except that
the Committee cannot amend the Plan to increase the number of shares available for ISO grants under the Plan or to change the designation or class of employees eligible to receive ISOs, without the
approval of our stockholders. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Outstanding Awards.</I></B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of March&nbsp;31, 2005, there were Options outstanding with respect to
215,475 shares. There were no outstanding Rights. No associates of any directors, executive officers or nominees for director have received any Awards. No person other than those indicated in the
table below have received five percent or more of the Awards available for grant under the Plan. Awards that will be granted in the future to the individuals and groups indicated in the table below
cannot be determined at this time, since all such decisions are within the discretion of the Committee. However, as indicated above, the Committee may not grant Awards to any participant (including
any executive officers) during any fiscal year with respect to more than 83,182 shares. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Options
granted during fiscal 2004 under the Plan were allocated among holders as set forth in the table below. Because the Committee has full discretion with respect to the allocation
of Awards among the individuals and groups identified in the table, such allocations could be changed by the Committee </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following is a brief summary of the Federal income tax treatment of the Plan, based on Federal income tax laws in effect on the date of this proxy statement.
This summary is not exhaustive and does not describe state or local tax consequences. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tax Treatment of ISOs.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Options designated as ISOs under the Plan are intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" within
the meaning of Section&nbsp;422 of the Code. All Options that are not designated as ISOs are intended to be NQSOs. An Option holder will recognize no income upon the grant of an ISO and incur no tax
on its exercise (unless the holder is subject to the alternative minimum tax described below). If the Option holder holds the stock acquired upon exercise of an ISO (the "ISO Shares") for more than
one year after the date the ISO Shares are transferred to the holder and for more than two years after the date the ISO was granted, the holder generally will realize long-term capital
gain or loss (rather than ordinary income or loss) upon disposition of the ISO Shares. This gain or loss will be equal to the difference between the amount realized upon such disposition and the
amount paid for the shares. If the holder disposes of ISO Shares by sale or exchange prior to the expiration of either required holding period (a "disqualifying disposition"), then gain realized upon
such disposition, up to the difference between the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise (or, if less, the amount realized on a sale of such shares) and the ISO exercise price, will
be treated as ordinary income. Any additional gain will be long-term or short-term capital gain, depending upon the length of time the ISO Shares were held. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Alternative Minimum Tax.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The difference between the fair market value of stock purchased on exercise of an ISO (measured as
of the date of exercise) and the amount paid for that stock upon exercise of the ISO is an adjustment to income for purposes of the alternative minimum tax. Currently, the alternative minimum tax
(which is imposed only to the extent it exceeds the taxpayer's regular tax) is generally 26% of an individual taxpayer's alternative minimum taxable income (28% to the extent the </FONT></P>

minimum taxable income exceeds $175,000). Alternative minimum taxable income is determined by adjusting regular taxable income for certain items, increasing that income by certain tax
preference items and reducing this amount by the applicable exemption amount (for 2005, $58,000 in the case of a joint return, subject to reduction under certain circumstances). An alternative minimum
tax adjustment applies unless a disqualifying disposition of the ISO Shares occurs in the same calendar year as the exercise of the ISO. In addition, upon a sale of ISO Shares that is not a
disqualifying disposition, alternative minimum taxable income is reduced in the year of sale by the excess of the fair market value of the ISO Shares at exercise over the amount paid for the ISO
Shares upon exercise. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tax Treatment of NQSOs.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An Option holder will not recognize any taxable income at the time an NQSO is granted. However, upon
exercise of an NQSO, the holder will include in income as compensation an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise and the exercise price of
the NQSO. If the holder receives any cash upon exercise, the amount of cash will be included in income as compensation. In either case, the included amount will be treated as ordinary income by the
holder and will be subject to income tax withholding by Ampex (either by payment in cash by the Option holder or withholding from the holder's salary). Upon resale of the shares by the holder, any
subsequent appreciation or depreciation in the value of the shares will be treated as capital gain or loss. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tax Treatment of Rights.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Rights will generally be subject to the tax consequences discussed above for NQSOs. Thus, the grant
of Rights will be treated like the grant of an NQSO; any shares of stock received upon exercise of Rights will be treated like shares received on exercise of an NQSO; and any cash payment received
upon exercise of Rights will be treated like a cash payment received on exercise of an NQSO. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Capital Gains Tax Rate.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Long-term capital gain generally is taxed at a maximum rate of 20%, rather than the
39.35% maximum tax rate applicable to ordinary income. For this purpose, in order to receive long-term capital gain treatment, stock must be held for more than one year. Capital gains may
be offset by capital losses and up to $3,000 of capital losses may be offset annually against ordinary income. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tax Treatment of Ampex.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to the limits imposed by Section&nbsp;162(m) of the Code, we generally will be entitled to
a deduction in connection with the exercise of an NQSO or Right by a domestic Option holder to the extent that the holder recognizes ordinary income. We generally will be entitled to a deduction in
connection with the disposition of ISO Shares only to the extent that the holder recognizes ordinary income on a disqualifying disposition of the ISO Shares. Under Section&nbsp;162(m), our ability
to take a deduction with respect to exercises of options or Rights by certain executive officers may be limited to the extent such exercise results in annual compensation in excess of $1,000,000. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;New Law Affecting Deferred Compensation.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In 2004, a new Section&nbsp;409A was added to the Code to regulate all types of
deferred compensation. If the requirements of Section&nbsp;409A are not satisfied, deferred compensation and earnings thereon will be subject to tax as it vests, plus a 20% penalty tax and interest
at the underpayment rate plus 1%. Certain types of Awards, including stock options and stock appreciation rights, are subject to Section&nbsp;409A of the Code. In April&nbsp;2005, we amended the
Plan in order to satisfy the requirements of Section&nbsp;409A. Under the terms of the Plan, stockholder approval was not required for these amendments. Among other things, the amendments provide
that Rights granted under the Plan will be settled in shares, rather than in cash. </FONT></P>

<BR></FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>PROPOSAL NO. 3&#151;RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS    <BR>    </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors has appointed BDO Seidman, LLP ("BDO") as our principal independent registered public accounting firm to audit our
financial statements for fiscal 2005, and you are being asked to ratify their selection. The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the work of
our registered public accountants, who report directly to the Audit Committee. Although we are not required to submit the selection of BDO to a vote of our stockholders for ratification, our Board of
Directors has directed that this matter be submitted to a vote of our stockholders for ratification on an advisory basis. If our stockholders fail to approve the selection of BDO, the Audit Committee
will reconsider whether to retain BDO, and may retain that firm or another firm without resubmitting the matter to a vote of our stockholders. Even if stockholders vote in favor of the appointment of
BDO, the Audit Committee may, in its
discretion, appoint different independent auditors at any time during fiscal 2005 if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BDO
was appointed by the Audit Committee on December&nbsp;13, 2004, and has audited our financial statements for fiscal 2004. BDO was appointed following the resignation of
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PWC") on December&nbsp;10, 2004. Prior to PWC's resignation, PWC and its predecessors had audited our financial statements (including those of our predecessor companies)
since 1987. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
our two most recent fiscal years and through December&nbsp;10, 2004, there were no disagreements between PWC and Ampex on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure that, if not resolved to the satisfaction of PWC, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in

purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board by overseeing our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of our financial statements. Management has

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
this context, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed our audited financial statements for fiscal 2004 (the "2004 Financial Statements") with management and with BDO Seidman,
LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. Management represented to the Committee that the 2004 Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and discussed significant accounting and disclosure issues with the Committee. The Committee discussed with BDO the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing
Standards No.&nbsp;61 (Communication with Audit Committees). </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Audit Committee has received from BDO the written disclosures and the letter required by Independence Standards Board Standard No.&nbsp;1 (Independence Discussions with Audit
Committees), and has discussed with BDO its independence from Ampex and our management, including a review of audit and non-audit fees for services performed for us. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Based
on the reviews and discussions described above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the 2004 Financial Statements be included in our Annual Report on
Form&nbsp;10-K for our fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, for filing with the SEC. The Committee and the Board also have recommended, subject to shareholder approval, the
selection of BDO as our independent auditors for fiscal 2005. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
February&nbsp;18, 2005, the Audit Committee concluded that the previously issued financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K as of
December&nbsp;31, 2003 and December&nbsp;31, 2002, including the corresponding 2003 and 2002 unaudited interim periods and for each of the years in the three year period ended December&nbsp;31,
2003, as well as our unaudited interim financial statements contained on Form&nbsp;10-Q as of and for the periods ending March&nbsp;31, 2004, June&nbsp;30, 2004 and
September&nbsp;30, 2004, should no longer be relied upon because of errors in those financial statements. These errors related to how we accounted for our obligations with respect to a pension plan
of our former magnetic tape manufacturing subsidiary ("Media"), which we sold in 1995. These errors were the subject of recent communications with the Office of the Chief Accountant of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), after which we revised our views with respect to the appropriate accounting for the Media pension plan. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
agreement for the sale of Media required the buyer, Quantegy Corporation, to pay directly or to reimburse us for required contributions to the Media pension plan. However, we
remained the Plan Sponsor of the Media pension plan and remained obligated to make pension contributions to that Plan. We had accounted for our obligations under the Media pension plan under SFAS
No.&nbsp;5, "Accounting for Contingencies" since the sale of Media in 1995. However, as a result of communications with the </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
connection with the restatement of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2003, the Company and the Audit Committee determined that our pension
accounting constituted a "material weakness." </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
a result of the foregoing, we have restated our consolidated balance sheets at December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002, and consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income
(loss), cash flows, and stockholders' deficit for the three years within the period ending December&nbsp;31, 2003, including the corresponding 2003 and 2002 unaudited interim periods, and the
unaudited quarterly periods ended March&nbsp;31, 2004, June&nbsp;30, 2004 and September&nbsp;30, 2004. The restatement affects periods prior to 2001. The impact of the restatement on such prior
periods is reflected as an adjustment to accumulated deficit, other accrued liabilities, other liabilities and minimum pension liability adjustment within Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income as of
January&nbsp;1, 2001. The effect of the restatement on net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share is set forth in our Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K/A for the fiscal year
ended December&nbsp;31, 2003. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers, directors, and certain stockholders owning more than 10% of any class of our equity
securities to file reports with the SEC indicating their ownership of our securities and any changes in such ownership. Executive officers, directors and 10% stockholders are required to provide
copies of these reports to us. Based on a review of copies of all such reports filed with respect to fiscal 2004 and furnished to us, as well as certain written representations provided to us by
executive officers, directors and certain 10% stockholders, we believe that all such reports required to be filed with respect to fiscal 2004 have been filed in a timely manner. </FONT></P>

average bonus and medical and insurance benefits for 24&nbsp;months following a "change in control" of Ampex (as defined in the Employment Security Letter) in which he is terminated, his
compensation and benefits are reduced to less than 90% of then-current compensation and benefits or he is relocated to a work location more than 50 miles from his current work location. In
addition, Mr.&nbsp;Talcott's agreement provides for continuation of certain royalty-based incentive compensation payments. Such benefits are subject to deferral or reduction as necessary to avoid
excise tax under Section&nbsp;4999 of the Internal Revenue Code and to ensure deductibility under Section&nbsp;280G of the Internal Revenue Code, and will cease if the Named Executive accepts
employment with a company engaged in business similar to the Company's business. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Pension Plan  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We maintain an Employees' Retirement Plan for our employees (the "Retirement Plan"). The Retirement Plan is a defined benefit plan under which a participant's
annual post-retirement pension benefit is generally determined by the employee's years of
credited service as determined under the Retirement Plan ("Credited Service") and his or her average annual earnings during the highest 60 consecutive months of the last 120 consecutive months of
service ("Final Average Annual Compensation"). Effective February&nbsp;1, 1994, the accrual of additional benefits under the Retirement Plan was discontinued by providing that a participant's
benefits will be determined on the basis of Credited Service and Final Average Annual Compensation accrued to the earlier of termination of employment or January&nbsp;31, 1994. There are no employee
contributions under the Retirement Plan. Under applicable Internal Revenue Code limits, the maximum annual benefit payable under the Retirement Plan, as of January&nbsp;1, 2004, is $160,000,
assuming that payments are made on a straight life or qualified joint and survivor basis, beginning at age 65. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
following table describes the estimated annual benefits payable upon retirement under the Retirement Plan at specified compensation levels and for specified years of Credited
Service. As indicated above, Final Average Annual Compensation and Years of Credited Service for each employee were frozen during 1994. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A
participant's annual pension payable as of normal retirement date will be equal to the following (subject to a minimum benefit level and to the freezing of benefits as described
above): 1.1% of that portion of the Final Average Annual Compensation, up to the "Social Security Integration Amount" in effect for 1994, plus 1.4% of that portion of the Final Average Annual
Compensation in excess of the Social Security Integration Amount, multiplied by the number of years of Credited Service. As a result of the benefit freeze, the Social Security Integration Amount,
which is determined based on a participant's year of birth, has been frozen at the level that was applicable for each year of birth in 1994. The Social Security Integration Amount was $24,312 for a
participant retiring in 1994 at age 65. For purposes of determining Final Average Compensation, salary, overtime and sales commissions are included. Because of the freeze implemented in
January&nbsp;1994, compensation during 1994 or subsequent years will not be used to determine Final Average Annual Compensation for the Names Executives. The table above assumes that benefits are
payable for life from normal retirement date (age 65)&nbsp;and are computed on a straight life basis. The benefits payable are not subject to any deduction for Social Security or other offset
amounts. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Since
January&nbsp;31, 1994, the Final Average Annual Compensation and the estimated years of Credited Service for each of the Named Executives have been as follows:
Mr.&nbsp;Atchison&#151;$138,524; 18&nbsp;years and 2&nbsp;months; Mr.&nbsp;Talcott&#151;$130,706; 19&nbsp;years and 3&nbsp;months; and Mr.&nbsp;Venema&#151;$87,061;
14&nbsp;years and 6&nbsp;months. Messrs.&nbsp;Bramson and McKibben are not participants in the Retirement Plan. In addition to the estimated benefits payable shown in the table above,
Mr.&nbsp;Talcott is eligible to receive $15,140 per year upon retirement at normal retirement age under the terms of the Ampex Corporation Supplemental Retirement Income Plan, which was terminated
as of December&nbsp;31, 1987. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ampex believes that the compensation of all employees, including executive officers, must be sufficient to attract and retain highly qualified personnel and must
align compensation with the Company's short-term and long-term business strategies and performance goals. In the case of executive officers, it must also provide meaningful
incentives for measurably superior performance. To ensure that our compensation practices remain competitive, Ampex regularly compares its compensation policies with those of other similar companies. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company's compensation philosophy for executive officers is to pay above-average total compensation when superior performance is achieved, both by the Company and the individual
executive. In recent years, because of the Company's financial situation and its cash requirements, superior performance for the Company has been equated with achieving certain levels of royalties,
sales, operating cash flow, profit and other indicators of financial performance. Superior performance by an individual is measured according to a variety of objective and subjective factors. Based on
available data reviewed by Ampex, the Company believes that the base salary of its Chief Executive Officer is significantly below the median salary for comparable positions with other companies in the
electronics and other technology industries. Aggregate base salaries for the Company's other executive officers as a group are below median for comparable positions in other
high-technology companies. If superior performance is achieved both by Ampex and the individual, the base salary plus cash bonuses may compensate an executive at above-average levels. If
Ampex does not achieve
financial targets and/or individual performance is not superior, total compensation will be below comparable average total compensation levels. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Components of Executive Compensation  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ampex provides several different types of compensation for its executive officers in order to achieve its goals of encouraging technological innovation, fostering
teamwork and enhancing the loyalty of valuable employees. The Committee believes that the achievement of these goals will ultimately enhance stockholder value. The components of executive compensation
are as follows: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Salary.</I></B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Committee establishes base salaries for its executive officers by reviewing salaries and
annual bonuses for comparable positions with other companies. Salary increases may be granted from time to time based on both individual performance and on the Company's ability to pay such increases. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash Incentive Plans.</I></B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In 2002, 2003 and 2004, the Company paid its executive officers cash bonuses
under cash incentive plans based on the financial performance of the Company and on their individual performance. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>of
the Stock Incentive Plan is to provide additional incentives for participants to maximize stockholder value. Through the Stock Incentive Plan, the long-range interests of employees are
aligned with the interests of the stockholders of the Company as these employees build an ownership interest in the Company. The Stock Incentive Plan Committee of the Board, which is composed solely
of non-employee directors, makes all decisions with respect to options granted under the Stock Incentive Plan to executive officers of the Company. Awards to non-employee
directors are made by the Board of Directors, without the participation or vote of the non-employee directors. During 2004, we granted options to purchase a total of 200,500 shares to our
executive officers under the Stock Incentive Plan. See "Compensation of Executive Officers&#151;Option/SAR Grants," above. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2000 Stock Bonus Plan.</I></B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's 2000 Stock Bonus Plan (the "Stock Bonus Plan") provides for the
issuance of shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock as stock bonuses or direct stock purchase rights to directors, executive officers and other key employees, and to certain consultants, advisers and service
providers.
The primary purposes of the Stock Bonus Plan are to permit the Company to pay non-cash, equity compensation to eligible individuals for services provided to the Company, and to encourage
continued service with the Company and the achievement of certain performance objectives by such individuals. The Committee believes that the Stock Bonus Plan enables the Company to attract and retain
highly qualified employees in its core businesses, align the long-range interests of key employees with the interests of the Company's stockholders, and conserve cash that might otherwise
be required to pay compensation to eligible individuals. There were no grants under the Stock Bonus Plan during fiscal 2004. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Limitation on Deductibility of Certain Compensation  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Internal Revenue Code was amended in 1993 to add Section&nbsp;162(m), which limits the deductibility, for income tax purposes, of certain executive
compensation in excess of $1,000,000 for any individual Named Executive in a single tax year. Based on the current compensation of its Named Executives, the Company does not believe that
Section&nbsp;162(m) will have any impact on the Company in the near term. Accordingly, the Company has not yet established a general policy regarding potential changes in its compensation programs
to address the possible impact of Section&nbsp;162(m). However, during 1994 the Stock Incentive Plan was amended to minimize the effect of Section&nbsp;162(m) on compensation under the Plan. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Fiscal 2004 Compensation  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Compensation of Chief Executive Officer; Relationship to Company Performance.</I></B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For fiscal 2004, Edward
J. Bramson, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, received a salary of $225,000 for his services to the Company and its subsidiaries. As indicated above, the Committee believes that
Mr.&nbsp;Bramson's base salary is, and has been for several years, significantly below the median salary for chief executive officers of other companies in the electronics and other technology
industries. Mr.&nbsp;Bramson's salary for fiscal 2004 was a fixed amount and accordingly did not have any particular relationship to the Company's performance. However, the Committee believes that
Mr.&nbsp;Bramson's contributions to the Company during 2004 amply justified his 2004 salary. Mr.&nbsp;Bramson did not receive a cash performance bonus for 2004, and received options to purchase a
total of 50,000 shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock under the Stock Incentive Plan during fiscal 2004. In future years, as in the past, Mr.&nbsp;Bramson's compensation package may include cash bonuses,
the payment of which will be tied to both individual and Company performance. </FONT></P>

(including the Named Executives) for fiscal 2004 was approved by the Committee in accordance with the general principles described above. Salary levels increased slightly from 2003 levels, but were
still below average for comparable positions with other high technology companies. For the reasons indicated below, the Committee concluded that cash bonuses for fiscal 2004 to all executive </FONT></P>

Company's five executive officers other than Mr.&nbsp;Bramson. Of this amount, $1,761,054 was paid based on the accomplishment of specific objectives by individual officers, or the achievement of
specific financial performance levels by the Company, and $320,000 was allocated to executives by Mr.&nbsp;Bramson in accordance with the discretionary authority delegated to him by the Committee. </FONT></P>

$719,072, which were computed in accordance with the Data Systems incentive program based on the level of cash flow generated by Data Systems during 2004. Craig L. McKibben, Vice President and CFO,

<BR></FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS    <BR>    </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During the period from 1995 to 1998, we entered into several transactions with our Chairman and CEO, Edward J. Bramson pursuant to which we agreed to sell shares
of our Class&nbsp;A Stock to Mr.&nbsp;Bramson, or to any corporation or entity controlled by him, at then-current fair market values. We did so in recognition of the continued services
of Mr.&nbsp;Bramson and in lieu of paying cash incentive compensation or granting additional stock options to him. During the period from 1992 to 2000, Mr.&nbsp;Bramson has been awarded options
under our 1992 Stock Incentive Plan to purchase a net total of 125 shares. Accordingly, we sold shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock to First Jeffson Corporation ("FJC") from 1995 to 1998, and to Second
Jeffson Corporation ("SJC") in 1996. These entities are affiliated corporations controlled by Mr.&nbsp;Bramson. FJC and SJC paid the purchase price for the shares partly in cash and partly by
issuing promissory notes. The notes were secured by a pledge of the shares that were purchased. For several years, the market value of the pledged shares was substantially less than the principal
amount of the notes. In 2002, these companies advised us that there could be no assurance that they would be able to obtain additional funds from Mr.&nbsp;Bramson or others to make future payments
of interest or principal on the notes. In 2002, we offset the "Notes receivable from
stockholders" against "Other additional capital" in our consolidated balance sheets, effectively negating the original transaction for accounting purposes. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
2003, we held two outstanding FJC notes bearing interest at 7.96% and 6.34% that were scheduled to mature in January&nbsp;2005 and October&nbsp;2007, respectively. Prior to
December&nbsp;2003, FJC paid a total of approximately $2.4&nbsp;million for the purchase of the shares securing the notes and interest and principal on the notes. In the fourth quarter of 2003,
FJC failed to make scheduled interest payments of $205,963 on these two notes. Accordingly, in March&nbsp;2004, we foreclosed on these notes and caused the 85,000 shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock
securing the notes, which had a fair market value of $153,000, to be registered in the Company's name. The largest amount outstanding on these notes during 2004 and on the date of foreclosure was
$2,794,050. In connection with the foreclosure, FJC also transferred to Ampex 500 additional shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock and $12,600 in cash, which represented substantially all of FJC's other
assets. We subsequently canceled the 85,500 shares transferred to us in connection with the foreclosure. Craig L. McKibben, our Vice President, CFO and a member of our Board, also serves as an
executive officer of FJC. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ampex
continues to hold the note issued by SJC, which is a 5.74% non-recourse note secured by a pledge of 20,000 shares of Class&nbsp;A Stock. The outstanding principal
amount of the note was $1,848,000 at all times during 2004, and the note is scheduled to mature in October&nbsp;2008. Under the terms of the note, interest of $106,075 is forgiven annually so long
as Mr.&nbsp;Bramson continues to serve as an officer and director of Ampex. To date, SJC has paid a total of $550,000 of the initial purchase price for the shares securing the note, and $147,840 of
interest due the note. Should SJC fail to pay the note at maturity, our recovery would be limited to the 20,000 shares securing this note which, at December&nbsp;31, 2004, had a fair market value of
$790,000. If we are required to foreclose on the note in the future, there would be no financial statement effect on our net income or net assets except for possible future tax benefits that may be
realized in future years. Mr.&nbsp;McKibben is a Vice President of SJC. </FONT></P>

August&nbsp;2003, we invested $1.0&nbsp;million, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, AFC Holdings Corporation ("AFC"), to acquire a 21.6% interest in Hanover Investors
Partners-IV, L.P. ("Hanover IV"), a limited partnership which was formed for the purpose of acquiring shares of 4imprint Group plc, a company listed on the London Stock Exchange

HIP-IV held a 0.2% interest, and Mr.&nbsp;Bramson held a 0.7% limited partnership interest, in Hanover IV. Mr.&nbsp;McKibben owns 30% of the voting stock and is an officer of
HIP-IV, and held a 7.5% limited partnership interest in Hanover IV. Our Board of Directors determined that the terms of our investment in Hanover IV were at least as favorable as the terms

4imprint shares by Hanover IV and dividends from Hanover IV. In the fourth quarter of 2004, Hanover IV distributed all of its assets to its investors. </FONT></P>

from Hanover V, but has agreed to assign such fees, net of related expenses, to Ampex. Mr.&nbsp;Bramson does not currently serve as an officer or director of the UK company in which Hanover V has

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries, such as banks, brokers and nominees, to deliver only one annual report and proxy statement to
eligible stockholders who share a single address, unless they receive instructions to the contrary from any stockholder at that address. This practice, known as "householding," is designed for
stockholder convenience and to reduce printing and postage costs. If you are a beneficial owner of our Class&nbsp;A Stock, you may have received notice from your bank, broker or other nominee and
they will be householding materials to your address. In that case, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to
participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate annual report and proxy statement, or if you are receiving multiple copies of an annual report and proxy statement and wish to
receive only one of each, please notify your bank, broker or nominee. </FONT></P>

accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of the Company's financial statements. The Committee shall review: the Company's financial reports and other financial information; the
Company's systems of internal controls regarding finance, accounting, legal compliance and ethics that management and the Board have established; and the Company's auditing, accounting and financial
reporting processes generally. Consistent with this function, the Committee should provide an open avenue of communication among the Company's independent accountants, management and the Board. The
Committee shall have the authority to engage independent counsel and other advisers, at the expense of the Company, as it determines necessary to carry out its duties. </FONT></P>

least one of whom shall be a Financial Expert (as defined below). Each Committee member must have a working familiarity with basic finance and accounting practices, and must, at the time of
appointment to the Committee or within a reasonable period of time thereafter, be able to read and understand fundamental financial
statements, including balance sheets, income statements and cash flow statements. In addition, Committee members may not have participated in the preparation of the financial statements of the Company

the appreciation in the value of such shares, and issue shares upon exercise of such Options and Rights, and/or distribute cash upon exercise of such Options and Rights, as provided in the Plan. The
Board shall have authority, subject to the express provisions of the Plan, to construe the respective Award agreements and the Plan; to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to
the Plan; to determine the terms and provisions of the respective Award agreements, which need not be identical; to advance the lapse of any waiting or installment periods and exercise dates; and to
make all other determinations in the judgment of the Board of Directors necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan. The Board may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile
any inconsistency in the Plan or in any Award agreement in the manner and to the extent it shall deem expedient to carry the Plan into effect and it shall be the sole and final judge of such
expediency. No director shall be liable for any action or determination taken or made under or with respect to the Plan or any Award in good faith. </FONT></P>
