Jaclyn, Inc. Announces Extension of Due Diligence Period for Sale of Office and Warehouse Facility


MAYWOOD, NJ--(Marketwire - March 5, 2009) - Jaclyn, Inc. (OTCQX: JCLY) today announced that it has extended the due diligence period of the proposed purchaser under a previously announced agreement for the sale of the Company's former executive office and warehouse facility, as well as two adjacent lots, located in West New York, New Jersey.

Under the original terms of the agreement, the closing of the sale was scheduled to be held on or before April 20, 2009, and the proposed purchaser had the right until March 4, 2009 in its sole discretion to terminate the agreement for any reason as a result of its due diligence investigation. The March 4, 2009 date has been extended until March 18, 2009. During the extension period, the Company anticipates discussing with the proposed purchaser, among other things, the status of his due diligence investigation and the need for a further extension of the due diligence period.

The Company again noted that since the proposed purchaser has the absolute right to terminate the agreement and not to purchase the West New York property, and the completion of any sale of the property is subject to a number of other conditions and deliveries, there is no assurance that sale of the property will be concluded.
