(Newark, N.Y., June 2, 2010) -- Ultralife Corporation (NASDAQ: ULBI) has received an order valued at approximately $2.5 million for its Land Warrior batteries and chargers from the U.S. Defense Department. The contract is for lithium ion rechargeable batteries as well as vehicle, bulk and individual soldier-based chargers. Deliveries are expected to begin this quarter and be completed by the third quarter of 2010.
