| Pulse Electronics Corporation Shareholder Meetings April 2011 |
| Administrative Items Important Information On April 7, 2011 Pulse Electronics Corporation filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) a definitive proxy statement in connection with its 2011 Annual Meeting. Pulse Electronics has filed with the SEC and mailed to stockholders a definitive proxy statement in connection with its 2011 Annual Meeting. Investors and stockholders are urged to read the definitive proxy statement relating to the 2011 Annual Meeting and any relevant documents filed with the SEC when they become available, because they contain (or will contain) important information. Investors and stockholders may obtain a free copy of the proxy statement and other documents (when available) that Pulse Electronics files with the SEC at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov and Pulse Electronics’ web site at www.pulseelectronics.com. In addition, the proxy statement and other documents filed by Pulse Electronics may be obtained from Pulse Electronics free of charge by directing a request to Pulse Electronics, Attention: Investor Relations, 1210 Northbrook Drive, Suite 470, Trevose, PA 19053.

Safe Harbor This presentation contains statements that are “forward-looking” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current information and expectations. There can be no assurance the forward-looking statements will be achieved. Actual results may differ materially due to the risk factors listed from time to time in the Company’s SEC reports including, but not limited to, those discussed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 in Item 1a under the caption “Factors That May Affect Our Future Results (Cautionary Statements for Purposes of the “Safe Harbor” Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995).” All such risk factors are incorporated herein by reference as though set forth in full. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward looking statement. |
| Administrative Items (continued) Non-GAAP Rationale Non-GAAP operating profit or loss (operating profit or loss according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. excluding pre-tax severance, impairment and other associated costs; pre-tax non-cash stock-based compensation expenses; and other pre-tax adjustments as described in the applicable period and adjusted EBITDA (net earnings attributable to Pulse Electronics Corporation plus net earnings from discontinued operations and non-controlling interest, excluding income taxes; depreciation and amortization; interest expense/income; non-cash stock-based compensation expenses; other expense/income; and severance, impairment and other associated costs and other adjustments as described in the applicable period), are not measures of performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Non-GAAP operating profit or loss and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for, and an investor should also consider, net income, operating profit, cash flow from operations and other measures of performance as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States as indicators of our profitability or liquidity. Non-GAAP operating profit is often used by our shareholders and analysts as an additional measure of our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is often used by our shareholders and analysts as an indicator of a company’s ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. We believe these non-GAAP measures enhance a reader’s understanding of our financial condition, results of operations and cash flow because they are unaffected by capital structure and, therefore, enables investors to compare our operating performance to that of other companies. We understand that our presentation of non-GAAP operating profit and adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in the method of calculation. Based on discussions with investors and equity analysts, we believe that a reader’s understanding of the Company’s operating performance is enhanced by references to these non-GAAP measures. Removing charges for severance, impairment and other associated costs, non-cash stock-based compensation expenses and other adjustments may facilitate comparisons of operating performance among financial periods and peer companies. These charges result from facility closures, the exit of a product line, production relocations and capacity reductions and / or restructuring of overhead and operating expenses to enhance or maintain profitability in an increasingly competitive environment. Removing non-cash stock-based compensation expenses facilitates comparisons of the company’s operating performance with that of other companies with differing compensation structures and with the company’s performance in periods during which its own compensation structure may have been different. Impairment charges, accelerated depreciation and curtailment gains are not part of the normal operating expense structure of the relevant business in the period in which the charge is recorded. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to results according to U.S. GAAP, see slides 35 and 36. |

| Bel Fuse has Put Forth a Highly Uncertain Proposal |
| Bel Fuse is Pursuing an Unsolicited, Uncertain and Opportunistic Takeover Proposal Shareholders should question Bel Fuse’s motives Bel Fuse is a direct competitor of Pulse and is attempting to advance a highly uncertain proposal to capture for itself the significant current and future value that rightly belongs to all shareholders Through a nomination of hand-picked directors to the Pulse Board, Bel Fuse is running a M&A proxy fight, not a governance proxy fight as purported Shareholders should question the validity of Bel Fuse’s highly uncertain proposal and tactics Bel Fuse has NOT demonstrated committed financing or the ability to secure financing Bel Fuse stock that would be part of a transaction would provide Pulse shareholders with class B shares which have NO voting rights Bel Fuse has provided NO details of how much cash and non-voting Bel Fuse stock it is offering Bel Fuse has NOT launched a tender offer |
| Bel Fuse’s Timing is Opportunistic Bel Fuse made its hostile approach prior to Pulse’s appointment of new CEO Ralph Faison Bel Fuse is attempting to acquire the Company before Pulse shareholders benefit from the implementation of our new strategic plan Improving Wireless Business Lowering G&A Expenses Optimizing Manufacturing Efficiencies Implementing New Enterprise Resource Planning System Building on Our Technology Leadership |
| Bel Fuse is not Acting in the Best Interests of Pulse Shareholders Given Pulse’s strategic plan for shareholder value creation, and with the increasing momentum in our business, we are confident in our ability to deliver value to Pulse shareholders Bel Fuse has a history of buying small stakes in competitors, and agitating for Bel Fuse benefit, in seeking a merger or partnership In each instance, Bel Fuse was rejected by competitors’ Board of Directors Ultimately, in all situations, Bel Fuse sold its shares and went away, without reaching its goals (2006-2009 Toko Holdings, 2008-2009 Power-One, 2004-2006 Artesyn Technologies) We have no doubt that Pulse shareholders — not Bel Fuse — should reap the benefits of our increased earning power and bright future |
