The Board of Directors of Del Global Technologies Corp. (the
"Company") voted to terminate the Rights Agreement, dated as of September 10,
2001 (the "Rights Agreement") by and between the Company and Mellon Investor
Services LLC, as Rights Agent (the "Rights Agent"). The termination will be
effective on September 30, 2003. The plan will be terminated by amending the
Rights Agreement to accelerate the expiration date of the rights issued
thereunder. Under the terms of the amendment, the rights will expire at the

Company and the Rights Agent, a copy of which is being filed as Exhibit 4.01

the Company's by-laws. This amendment allows stockholders who own 25% of the

notice. The amended provisions of the By-Laws may not be changed again without
stockholder approval. Attached hereto as Exhibit 3.01 and incorporated herein by
reference is a copy of Amendment No. 1 to the Amended and Restated By-Laws of
the Company.
