            Steel Partners II, L.P.  ("Steel") is filing materials  contained in
this Schedule 14A with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with
a possible solicitation of proxies in support of the election of the nominees of
Steel to the Board of Directors of Del Global Technologies Corp. (the "Company")
at the 2003 annual meeting of the  stockholders  of the Company  scheduled to be
held on May 14, 2003, or any other meeting of stockholders held in lieu thereof,
and any adjournments, postponements, reschedulings or continuations thereof (the
"Annual Meeting").

            Item 1: On April 9, 2003,  Steel issued the following  press release
announcing  that it has filed suit  against the Company in the Supreme  Court of
the State of New York  seeking to compel the  Company  to produce  the  records,
documents and information  related to the Company's  shareholders  that Steel is
entitled to in connection  with its nomination of three  candidates for election
at the Annual Meeting:

PRESS RELEASE

    STEEL PARTNERS II, L.P. FILES SUIT AGAINST DEL GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES CORP.,
                  SEEK INFORMATION VITAL TO PROXY SOLICITATION

            NEW YORK, NY - April 9, 2003 - Steel Partners II, L.P.,  member of a
group of Del Global  Technologies  Corp.  (Pink  Sheets:  DGTC.PK)  shareholders
seeking  representation  on the Del Global Board,  today  announced  that it has
filed suit  against the  Company in the Supreme  Court of the State of New York.
The litigation is intended to force Del Global to comply with Section 624 of the
State  Business  Corporation  Law and asks the  Court to order  the  Company  to
produce  the  records,  documents  and  information  related  to  the  Company's
shareholders  that the group is entitled to in connection with its nomination of
three  candidates  for election to the Del Global Board at the Company's  Annual
Meeting scheduled for May 14, 2003.

            Warren Lichtenstein,  Managing Partner of Steel Partners II, stated,
"We  regret  being  forced  to  go to  court  to  obtain  information  that,  as
shareholders  in this  Company,  is ours by both law and  right.  We are  simply
seeking records that will enable us to communicate  effectively  with our fellow
shareholders. Not surprisingly, the Del Global Board and management have refused
our  request.  This is just the latest in a line of  management  misconduct  and
flawed corporate governance which has included,  among other things: the failure
to hold an annual  meeting in over three  years;  an  enforcement  action by the
Securities and Exchange  Commission related to accounting  irregularities  which
led to a restatement of company financial  statements;  suspension of trading on
the NASDAQ national market and subsequent  de-listing because of failure to make
timely filings; a lack of internal oversight  committees;  various related-party
transactions  and  compensation   arrangements   with  directors  and  officers;
consistent, sustained, and increased financial losses over the past three years;
and, in light of the  foregoing,  the  diminished  return on investment  for its
shareholders."

            In addition to Steel Partners II, L.P.,  the group includes  private
investment  partnerships managed by investor David W. Wright. In addition to Mr.
Wright,  the group will solicit  proxies for the election of venture  capitalist
and nationally  recognized corporate governance  consultant Gerald M. Czarnecki,
and  nationally  recognized  corporate  governance  expert  Suzanne M.  Hopgood,
President of The Hopgood Group, LLC and former President,  CEO and a director of
Houlihan's  Restaurant  Group,  Inc. Ms.  Hopgood has  extensive  experience  in
corporate workouts, turnarounds and restructurings.

            Regarding the court filing, Mr. Wright commented, "It is unfortunate
that the  current  Board  has seen fit to expend  shareholders'  money on easily
avoidable  litigation.  We look forward to the coming election with  confidence,
and expect that Del Global  shareholders  will finally have the  opportunity  to
express their views with their most effective voice - a vote for our nominees."
