On March 5, 2010, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Ultralife Corporation (the “Company”), on the recommendation of the Board’s Governance Committee, elected Thomas L. Saeli to the Board. Mr. Saeli will stand for re-election to the Board with the Company’s other director nominees at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders on June 8, 2010. The Board expects to appoint Mr. Saeli to the Board’s Audit and Finance Committee and Strategy and Corporate Development Committee.

There was no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Saeli and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Saeli was selected as a director. As of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, neither Mr. Saeli nor any of his immediate family members is a party, either directly or indirectly, to any transactions that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
