Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of August
1, 2005 (as amended from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"), by and among Del
Global Technologies Corp., Del Medical Imaging Corp., and RFI Corporation (each
a "Borrower" and collectively the "Borrowers"), and North Fork Business Capital
Corporation (hereinafter referred to as the "Lender"). All capitalized terms
used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Loan
Agreement.
Borrowers have advised Lender that Events of Default have occurred
under Sections 9.1 of the Loan Agreement as a result of Borrowers' failure to
comply with the financial covenants set forth in the following Sections of the
Loan Agreement for the measurement period ended April 29, 2006: Sections 8.1(b)
(Adjusted U.S. Earnings); 8.2(b) (Adjusted Earnings); 8.3(b) (Senior U.S. Debt
Ratio); 8.4 (Senior Debt Ratio); 8.5(b) (Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio); 8.6
(Tangible Net Worth); and 8.7 (Capital Expenditures). Borrowers have requested
that the Lender waive compliance with, or any Events of Default arising from
breaches of such covenants. Pursuant to Borrowers' request and in accordance
with the conditions contained herein, the Lender hereby waives compliance with,
or any Events of Default arising from breaches of such covenants for the period
ended April 29, 2006.
The agreement of the Lender set forth in this letter is limited and
shall not be deemed to be an agreement, consent or waiver of (i) any other term,
condition or obligation of the Borrowers under the Loan Agreement or any other
Loan Document or (ii) any other act, event or condition (whether now existing or
hereafter occurring), or prejudice any right or remedy which the Lender may now
have or have in the future under or in connection with the Loan Agreement, any
Loan Document or any other security provided by any Person in respect thereof.
The agreement, consent and waivers of the Lender set forth in this letter only
apply to the waivers specifically set forth herein. Additionally, Lender's
agreement to waive the Events of Default set forth herein is conditioned upon
(i) Borrowers paying to Lender a waiver fee in the amount of $20,000 no later
than November 1, 2006; and (ii) the immediate termination of Borrowers' option
to request LIBOR Rate Advances until such time as Lender, in its sole
discretion, determines to allow such advances.
NORTH FORK BUSINESS CAPITAL
Except as expressly stated herein, the Lender reserves all its
respective rights, privileges and remedies under the Loan Agreement, the other
Loan Documents and any other contracts or instruments executed by Borrowers for
the benefit of the Lender and the Borrowers acknowledge that all representations
and warranties contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents
remain in full force and effect. In order to induce the Lender to execute this
letter, the Borrowers accept and agree to each provision of this letter.
This letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all
of which counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same
instrument. Notwithstanding any provision of this letter, this letter and the
waivers herein provided shall not be effective in whole or in part unless and
until the Lender shall have received an original of this letter which has been
duly signed by the Borrowers, and the Lender may withdraw this letter and the
