8:02a ET November 4, 2009 (GlobeNewswire)
VCG Holding Corp. (Nasdaq:VCGH), a growing and leading consolidator and operator of adult nightclubs, announced today that it received a non-binding letter of intent on November 3, 2009 from the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Troy Lowrie, Lowrie Management, LLLP, an entity controlled by Mr. Lowrie, and certain other unidentified investors (collectively, "Lowrie"), to acquire all of the outstanding common stock of the Company for $2.10 per share in cash (the "Acquisition"). The Proposal contemplates that the Company would no longer be a public reporting or trading company following the closing of the Acquisition. The Company's Board of Directors has formed a Special Committee consisting solely of directors who are independent under the NASDAQ independence rules to review and evaluate the Proposal and to recommend to the Company's Board of Directors whether or not to approve or decline the Proposal. The Special Committee was formed to maximize shareholder value, including evaluating the Company's alternatives to the Proposal. The members of the Special Committee are George Sawicki, Kenton Sieckman and Carolyn Romero. The Proposal is subject to the approval of the Special Committee, the Company's Board of Directors and the Company's shareholders.

No assurance can be given that an agreement on terms satisfactory to the Special Committee or the Board of Directors will result from the Proposal submitted by Lowrie or any other party, or that any transaction recommended by the Special Committee will be completed.
