SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT

THIS SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the 21st day of March, 2006, by and between, Del Global Technologies Corp., a New York corporation (the “Company”) and Christopher N. Japp (“Employee”).

WHEREAS, on March 2, 2006, Employee tendered his voluntary resignation to the Company.

WHEREAS, this Agreement governs the terms of Employee’s separation from the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1.Separation Date. Employee acknowledges that his last day of employment with the Company was March 2, 2006 (the “Separation Date”). The Employee understands and agrees that, as of the Separation Date, he is no longer authorized to incur any expenses, obligations, or liabilities on behalf of the Company and he has previously submitted for reimbursement any outstanding expenses incurred for which he seeks reimbursement. The Employee further understands and agrees that, as of the Separation Date, he is no longer authorized to conduct any business on behalf of the Company or to hold himself out as an employee, agent or representative of the Company. The Employee agrees to fully cooperate, to whatever extent necessary, in executing any documentation as may be necessary to facilitate a smooth transition of the Employee’s duties and responsibilities to other Company employees.

2.Severance. As severance, the Company agrees to continue payment of Employee’s base salary and car allowance and continue Employee’s health-related benefits through May 31, 2006 (the “Severance Payment”). All payments shall be less applicable tax withholding obligations and payroll deductions. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Severance Payment exceeds any amount that would otherwise be due to him as severance and unpaid salary, benefits, or other compensation, and that, as of the Separation Date, he is not due and will not otherwise be due any monies from the Company including any unpaid salary, benefits, or other compensation, except as otherwise provided for within this paragraph. After May 31, 2006, Employee shall have the option of electing continuing health coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), the costs of which shall be exclusively borne by the Employee. In addition, the Company agrees to reimburse Employee for (i) the relocation of certain personal effects from the apartment at 1130 S. Michigan, Chicago, Illinois to Woodbury, Minneapolis, in an amount not to exceed $1,000.00 (ii) any outstanding business expenses incurred by Employee related to Del Medical Imaging subject to Company policy on expense reimbursement and (iii) the fee for executive outplacement services at Right Management in Minneapolis not to exceed $3,500. In addition, the Company agrees to assume the lease of the apartment at 1130 Michigan, Chicago, Illinois commencing as of the date Employee vacates the apartment which date shall be no later than March 31, 2006. In the event of Employee’s death, any amounts owing and unpaid to Employee under this Agreement shall be

paid to Employee’s estate. The Company will provide Employee with indemnification to the extent provided for in the Company’s By-laws and will provide directors and officers insurance coverage to the extent provided for in the Company’s Director & Officer Liability Insurance Policy.

3.Release. In exchange for the consideration provided for in this Agreement, Employee irrevocably and unconditionally releases the Company, its predecessors, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, and past, present and future officers, directors, agents, consultants, employees, representatives, and insurers, as applicable, together with all successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Releasees”), of and from all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, rights of action, contracts, controversies, covenants, obligations, agreements, damages, penalties, interest, fees, expenses, costs, remedies, reckonings, extents, responsibilities, liabilities, suits, and proceedings of whatsoever kind, nature, or description, direct or indirect, vested or contingent, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, in contract, tort, law, equity, or otherwise, under the laws of any jurisdiction, that the Employee or his predecessors, legal representatives, successors or assigns, ever had, now has, or hereinafter can, shall, or may have, against the Releasees, as set forth above, jointly or severally, for, upon, or by reason of any matter, cause, or thing whatsoever from the beginning of the world through, and including, the date of this Agreement (“Claims”), arising out of or relating to Employee’s employment with the Company.

Except to enforce this agreement, Employee agrees that he will not pursue, file or assert or permit to be pursued, filed or asserted any civil action, suit or legal proceeding seeking equitable or monetary relief (nor will he seek or in any way obtain or accept any such relief in any civil action, suit or legal proceeding) in connection with any matter concerning his employment relationship with the Company with respect to all of the claims released herein arising from the beginning of the world up to and including the date of execution of this Agreement (whether known or unknown to his and including any continuing effects of any acts or practices prior to the date of execution of this Agreement).
