New York, New York

Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading national securities and shareholder rights law firm, announces that it is investigating the proposed acquisition of SL Industries, Inc. (NYSE: SLI) (“SLI” or the “Company”) by Handy & Harman Ltd. (“Handy & Harman”) to acquire SLI. Handy & Harman is an affiliate of Steel Partners Holdings L.P., which beneficially owns 25.3% of SLI’s outstanding common stock, and two of the five members of SLI’s board of directors are affiliated with Handy & Harman, including SLI’s chairman. Under the terms of the proposed transaction, SLI’s shareholders will be able to elect to receive cash or Handy & Harman stock, at per share price range of $43.00 to $45.00 per share.

Our investigation has determined that the price of only $43 to $45 per share unfairly under-values the true going forward inherent value of SLI and that shareholders are not receiving the maximum value for their shares. Indeed, the stock traded as high as $51.96 this past year, and the Company has no long term debt. The investigation further seeks to determine whether the senior management of SLI is entering into this deal for their own self-interests to the detriment of the Company’s shareholders.

If you are a shareholder of SLI and would like additional information as to how the acquisition may affect your rights as a shareholder, and how you may be eligible to obtain a higher price for your shares, please contact us toll free at 1-800-906-6432 or contact us via our website.
