Incorporation by Reference: None NUMBER OF PAGES IN THIS REPORT (EXCLUDING EXHIBITS): 58PART 1 ITEM 1. BUSINESS HISTORY AND INTRODUCTION Founded in 1968, Telos Corporation ("Telos" or the "Company") delivers enterprise integration solutions and services to customers in the U.S. federal government and industry. Telos' product and service offerings span the entire systems life cycle, including network and systems design, software development, systems integration, hardware and software maintenance, and solutions for emerging needs for enterprise network infrastructure management, data integration, and information security. The Company is headquartered in Ashburn, Virginia, part of Northern Virginia's growing Netplex region of high technology companies. In today's dynamic business environment, timely and accurate information flow is critical for success. Telos' specialized approach to this information challenge is based on leveraging customers' IT infrastructure, delivering user centric information, and enabling customers to achieve a fast return on investment. Many customers are turning to the virtual enterprise as a model for improving business performance through enhanced communications and business processes. The virtual enterprise is a demand driven partnership of customers, employees, partners and suppliers to deliver solutions. Telos' solutions are aimed at overcoming the critical barriers that face the virtual enterprise: (1) the difficulty in accessing disparate data without extensive programming, (2) the inability to quickly integrate data to ensure customer responsiveness, manufacturing and distribution efficiency and overall competitive strength, (3) the problem of effectively distributing information quickly and securely and (4) the challenge of making the organizational and technological complexity invisible to end users. Over each of the past three years, Telos has made significant investments in the development of software and service solutions to facilitate the transition of its business toward a larger mix of fixed price commerce solutions. As part of this strategy, the Company has discontinued or divested itself of those elements of its traditional business which were not consistent with this strategy. In February 1998, Telos sold Telos Information Systems ("TIS"), a contract labor division, for $14.7 million. In September 1999, the Company sold Telos Field Engineering ("TFE"), its computer maintenance division, for $10 million. On December 30, 1999, Enterworks completed a private placement of convertible preferred stock, and the Company and Enterworks completed a series of concurrent transactions. As a result, Enterworks deconsolidated from Telos (See Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). REPORTABLE OPERATING SEGMENTS During 1999, the Company provided its business solutions through three operating segments: Systems and Support Services, the Products Group, and its Enterworks subsidiary. On December 30, 1999, the Enterworks subsidiary was deconsolidated due to a private placement offering and concurrent transactions (See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). SYSTEMS AND SUPPORT SERVICES The Company's Systems and Support Services Group provides software development and support services for software and hardware including technology insertion, system redesign, software re-engineering, Help Desk, and third party maintenance. Key customers of this segment include: The U.S. Army at Ft. Sill in Lawton, Oklahoma; the U.S. Army at Ft. Monmouth in Red Bank, New Jersey; and until September, 1999 the U.S. Army's Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama. Telos is one of the largest providers of software engineering services to the U.S. Army, maintaining over 50 million lines of software code for fire support systems. In addition, the Company has supported seventy-nine tactical land and satellite communications systems for the Communications-Electronics Command's Research, Development, and Engineering Center. The Company's largest hardware services contract was for the Redstone Arsenal where the Telos Call Center responded to support the Army's Aviation and Missile Command. In addition to these traditional Telos customers and services, the Company has information security, data integration, advance messaging, and wireless network and enterprise management practices which generate higher margins than the traditional business and represent a growing component of this segment.
For 1999, the Systems and Support Services Group generated revenue of $93.5 million, or 54.6%, of the Company's reported consolidated revenue. The TFE and TIS divisions were part of the Systems and Support Services Group prior to their respective sales in 1999 and 1998. PRODUCTS GROUP The Products Group delivers product-based solutions for networking environments. This group sells commercial products from most major original equipment manufacturers. The Company is capable of staging, installing, and deploying large network infrastructures with little disruption to the customer's ongoing operations. This operating segment also held the largest network integration contract ever awarded by the U.S. federal government, the Small Multi-user Computer ("SMC-II") contract which had a three-year term that commenced with the original award in September 1995, and was extended through April 1999. The Products Group was awarded the follow-on to the SMC II Contract, Infrastructure Solutions 1, or IS1, awarded in February 1999. For 1999, the Products Group had revenues of $77.8 million, or 45.4%, of the Company's reported consolidated revenues. ENTERWORKS, INC. Enterworks develops, markets and supports a software framework that integrates content and processes for companies seeking to participate in e-business. They target operators and users of e-marketplaces and portals. E-marketplaces and portals are Web-based destinations where employees, customers, partners and suppliers can interact to obtain information about products and services, and conduct business more efficiently. Enterworks' products enable customers to build or join e-marketplaces and portals rapidly, add new content and e-business participants easily, and automate the end-to-end processes required for e-business interaction. Enterworks' products are designed to meet the business and technical challenges faced by operators and users of e-marketplaces and portals by delivering integrated, real-time content and automating business processes that bring together employees, customers, partners and suppliers. These products offer numerous competitive advantages over traditional solutions by combining both content and process integration, and by guiding people through e-business interactions. At the end of 1999, Enterworks completed a private placement of convertible preferred stock and the Company and Enterworks completed a series of concurrent transactions. As a result, Enterworks deconsolidated from Telos (See Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). REVENUE BY MAJOR MARKET AND SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS Revenue by major market for the Company are as follows: PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL CONSOLIDATED REVENUE FOR -------------------------------------------- 1999(1) 1998 1997 ------- ---- ---- Federal government 92.8% 92.9% 94.6% Commercial 5.9 5.1 3.9 State and local governments 1.3 2.0 1.5 --- ---- ---- TOTAL 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% ====== ====== =====
1. Major market revenue includes Enterworks revenue. Total consolidated revenue derived from the federal government for 1999 includes 57.4% of revenue from contracts with the United States Army, 12.2% of revenue from contracts with the United States Navy, 7.4% of revenue with other Department of Defense customers, and 6.8% of revenue from the Federal Judicial branch. COMPETITION The segments of the information services industry in which the Company operates are highly fragmented with no single company or small group of companies in a dominant position. Some of the Company's competitors also operate in international markets, along with other entities, which operate exclusively or primarily outside the United States. Some of the large competitors offer services in a number of markets which overlap many of the same areas in which the Company offers services, while certain companies are focused on only one or a few of these markets. The firms which compete with the Company are computer services firms, applications software companies and consulting firms, as well as the computer service arms of computer manufacturing companies and defense and aerospace firms. Thousands of firms fall into these categories. As the Company becomes more focused on network-enabled enterprise computing, the competition shifts to include companies that perform enterprise integration for large and complex information technology environments. In addition, the internal staffs of client organizations, non-profit federal contract research centers and universities are competitors of the Company. The Company believes that the principal competitive factors in the segments of the information and network technology market in which it competes include project management capability, technical expertise, reputation for providing quality service, and price. The Company believes its technical competence in computer engineering, systems software, engineering, system and network integration, and hardware maintenance will enable it to compete favorably in the information and network technology market. EMPLOYEES The Company employed 833 persons as of December 31, 1999, down from 1,155 at December 31, 1998. The decline was principally due to the sale of TFE and the deconsolidation of Enterworks. The services the Company provides require proficiency in many fields, such as computer science, mathematics, physics, engineering, operations research, economics, and business administration. Of the total Company personnel, 570 provide Systems and Support Services, while 122 provide System Integration (Products) Services. An additional 141 employees provide corporate and business services functions. Enterworks employed 168 persons as of December 31, 1999. BACKLOG Many of the Company's contracts with the U.S. Government are funded by the procuring government agency from year to year, primarily based upon the government's fiscal requirements. This results in two different categories of backlog: funded and unfunded. Total backlog consists of the aggregate contract revenues remaining to be earned by the Company at a given time over the life of its contracts, whether or not funded. Funded backlog consists of the aggregate contract revenues remaining to be earned by the Company at a given time, but only to the extent, in the case of government contracts, funded by a procuring government agency and allotted to the contracts. Unfunded backlog is the difference between total backlog and funded backlog. Included in unfunded backlog are revenues which may be earned only if customers exercise delivery orders and/or renewal options to continue existing contracts. A number of contracts undertaken by the Company extend beyond one year and, accordingly, portions of contracts are carried forward from one year to the next as part of the backlog. Because many factors affect the scheduling and continuation of projects, no assurance can be given as to when revenue will be realized on projects included in the Company's backlog. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company had total backlog from existing contracts of approximately $242.2 million and $923.3 million, respectively. This is the maximum value of additional future orders for systems, products, maintenance and other support services presently allowable under those contracts, including renewal options available on the contracts if exercised by the client, over periods extending up to seven years. Included in the backlog at December 31, 1998 was $786 million from the Company's Small Multi-Computer II ("SMC-II") contract, which expired in April 1999 and therefore, did not convert to orders and revenue of this magnitude in 1999. The Company was awarded the follow-on contract to SMC II, Infrastructure Solutions-1 ("IS1"), in the first quarter of 1999. This contract has a five-year term with an award amount not to exceed $380 million. Approximately $45 million and $56 million of the total was funded backlog at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. While backlog remains a measurement consideration, in recent years the Company, as well as other federal contractors, experienced a change in the manner in which the federal government procures equipment and services. These procurement changes include the growth in the use of General Services Administration ("GSA") schedules which allow agencies of the federal government to purchase significant amounts of equipment and services. The use of the GSA schedules results in a significantly shorter and much more flexible procurement cycle, as well as increased competition as many companies hold such schedules. Along with the GSA schedules, the federal government is awarding a large number of omnibus contracts with multiple awardees. These contracts generally require extensive marketing efforts by the awardees to procure business. The use of GSA schedules and omnibus contracts, while generally not providing immediate backlog, provide areas of potential growth that the Company continues to aggressively pursue. OVERVIEW OF 1999 During 1999, Telos continued to execute its strategy of transitioning its business toward a larger mix of commerce solutions. These efforts included the continued development of Enterworks' software suite which includes Enterworks Content Integrator(TM) ("ECI"), formerly Virtual DB, and Enterworks Process Integrator(TM) ("EPI"), formerly Enterworks Process Manager. ECI 3.5 was released in December 1999 and EPI 2.0.1 was released February 2000. These efforts also included doubling the size of the sales and marketing infrastructure. As a result of these efforts, Enterworks' revenue increased in excess of 50% from 1998 revenue. In December 1999, Enterworks completed a private placement financing whereby the Company's voting interest in Enterworks was reduced to 34.8%. As a result of this decrease in ownership, effective December 30, 1999 Enterworks has been deconsolidated from the Company's operating results. As a result, the Company will no longer be required to fund the continuing investment needed for Enterworks sales and marketing infrastructure and product development. The Company's 1999 investments were also focused on its higher margin information security, data integration, advanced messaging and wireless networking practices. Revenue for these practices approximated $15.8 million for 1999, which represents a more than doubling of comparable 1998 revenues. The Company expects total revenue for these practices will continue to grow in 2000 based in part on its continuing investments in sales and marketing to support these practices. The Company's 1999 activities also focused on reducing or eliminating certain of its least profitable contracts. With these business reductions came decreases in related corporate infrastructure costs, including selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses. However, on a total company basis, these cost reductions were more than offset by increases in SG&A costs to support Enterworks and the other higher margin businesses noted above. In September 1999, the Company sold all of the net assets of its TFE division for $10 million in cash. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Company leases 191,700 square feet of space in Ashburn, Virginia for its corporate headquarters, integration facility, and primary service depot. This lease expires in March 2016, with a ten-year extension available at the Company's option. This facility supports all three of the Company's operating segments. As of January 1, 2000, Enterworks, Inc. is subleasing 35,214 rentable square feet of space from Telos Corporation at the Ashburn, Virginia location for its corporate headquarters and operating segments. This sublease will expire in March 2001 unless a renewal of the sublease is reached by mutual agreement between the Company and Enterworks. The Company leases additional space for regional contract work sites, training, and sales offices in 11 separate facilities located in 4 states and Europe under various leases, which expire on various dates through March 2004. At December 31, 1999, the Company sold the remaining building it owned in Amery, Wisconsin. This facility principally supported the Company's Systems and Support Services operating segment. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is a party to various lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, while the results of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or of cash flows. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS During the fourth quarter of 1999, no matters were submitted to a vote of security holders.
PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS No public market exists for the Company's Class A or Class B Common Stock. As of March 1, 2000, there were 83 holders of the Company's Class A Common Stock and 3 holders of the Company's Class B Common Stock. ITEM 6.

ITEM 7.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL Over the last three years, the Company has made significant investments in the development of software products, in sales and marketing, and in positioning its infrastructure to support its new business to business e-commerce products. The Company's investments in new software products provide the Company with an expanded product line that, the Company believes, offers its customers unique value added solutions for their computing and information gathering analysis problems. The investment in software products has been primarily through Enterworks Inc. and is focused on the eBusiness infrastructure market, through content and process integration products. As of December 31, 1999, the Company will no longer fund Enterworks' activities as Enterworks is no longer included in the Company's consolidated financial results. Additionally, the Company has established a comprehensive offering of products and services on its GSA schedule. These investments have enabled the Company to win most of its significant contract rebids, and continue to provide significant new business opportunities. During 1999, the Company experienced decreases in revenue and profitability. Revenue decreased $35.7 million, or 17.2%, as compared to 1998. Approximately $23.9 million of this decrease was attributable to the expiration of the Products segment's SMC II contract in April 1999 and the timing of the subsequent start up period on IS-1. This decline is also due to the effects of the deconsolidation of Enterworks, which presents the results from operations of Enterworks in a single line item entitled "Equity in Net Losses of Enterworks". Operating income for 1999 was $2.2 million, as compared to an operating loss of $7.3 million in 1998. Operating profitability improved principally as a result of the deconsolidation of Enterworks discussed above. Exclusive of Enterworks, the Company's earnings before interest and taxes for 1999 were $2.2 million compared to $4.3 million for 1998. This decline was principally due to the decline in operating profit of the Products segment of $2.0 million from 1998 to 1999. During 1998, the Company's revenue and profitability decreased as compared to 1997. Revenue decreased $46.7 million, or 18.4%, primarily due to the expiration of two large contracts in 1997 (further discussed below). Operating losses for 1998 were $7.3 million, as compared to an operating profit of $7.4 million in 1997. Operating profitability declined principally as a result of the decreases in revenue, as well as the Company's continued investment in Enterworks. REVENUE BY CONTRACT TYPE Approximately 94% of the Company's total revenues in 1999 were attributable to contracts with federal, state, and local governments, including 93% attributable to the federal government. The Company's revenues are generated from a number of contract vehicles. In general, the Company believes its contract portfolio is characterized as having low to moderate financial risk as the Company has limited long-term fixed price development contracts. The Company's firm fixed price contracts consist principally of contracts for the purchase of computer equipment at established contract prices or contracts for maintenance of computer hardware. A significant portion of the Company's revenue is from time and material contracts, which generally allow the pass-through of allowable costs plus a profit margin. For 1999, revenue by contract type was as follows (includes revenues generated by Enterworks): time and materials, 37.3%; firm fixed price, 51.0%; cost reimbursable, 6.4%; fixed monthly rate, 4.8%; and other, 0.5%. While the Company has not experienced any significant recent terminations or renegotiations, government contracts may be terminated or renegotiated at any time at the convenience of the government.

Enterworks, Inc. was deconsolidated as of December 30, 1999 and therefore will not be reflected as a segment in the year 2000. Sales, gross profit and gross margin by market segment for the periods designated below are as follows: YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, ------------------------------------------------------ 1999 1998 1997 ---- ---- ---- (dollar amounts in thousands) Revenue: Enterworks, Inc. $ -- $ 7,073 $ 3,398 Systems and Support Services 93,538 98,277 121,052 Products 77,826 101,736 129,337 ------- ------- ------- TOTAL $171,364 $ 207,086 $ 253,787 ======== ======= ======= Gross Profit: Enterworks, Inc. $ -- $ 1,542 $ (132) Systems and Support Services 16,158 14,046 20,614 Products 3,990 8,583 14,875 ------- ------ ------ TOTAL $ 20,148 $ 24,171 $ 35,357 ======== ======= ====== Gross Margin: Enterworks, Inc. --% 21.8% (3.9)% Systems and Support Services 17.3% 14.3% 17.0% Products 5.1% 8.4% 11.5% TOTAL 11.8% 11.7% 13.9% RESULTS OF OPERATIONS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998 Revenue for 1999 was $171.3 million, a $35.7 million or 17.2% decrease from 1998. Approximately $23.9 million of this decrease was attributable to the Products Group, which experienced a decline in revenue primarily due to the expiration of the Small Multi User Computer II ("SMCII") contract in April 1999. The SMCII contract contributed revenue of approximately $44.1 million in 1998 as compared to $8.8 million in 1999. In addition, the Systems and Support Services Group experienced a $4.7 million decrease in revenue for the year ended December 31, 1999 as compared to the same period in 1998. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of TIS in February 1998. TIS contributed $4.0 million of revenue in 1998 prior to its sale. In addition revenue declined in part due to the deconsolidation of Enterworks to an "Equity in Enterworks nets losses" presentation. Cost of sales was 88.2% of sales for the year ended December 31, 1999, as compared to 88.3% for the same period in 1998. The major changes in cost of sales are attributable to favorable changes in contract mix and a high margin transaction with one of the Company's partners within the Systems and Support Services Group, offset by the elimination of high margin sales within the Enterworks Group. Gross profit decreased to $20.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1999 compared to the same 1998 period due to the aforementioned deconsolidation of Enterworks. Gross margins were 11.8% for 1999 as compared to 11.7% for 1998. Selling, general, and administrative expense ("SG&A") decreased by approximately $13.4 million or 43.4%, to $17.4 million for the year ended December 31, 1999 from $30.8 million in the comparable period of 1998. This decrease is due primarily to the deconsolidation of Enterworks. SG&A as a percentage of revenues decreased to 10.2% for 1999 from 14.9% in the comparable 1998 period. Goodwill amortization expense decreased $100,000 for the comparative year periods of 1999 and 1998. This reduction is due to a decrease in the goodwill balance associated with the sales of TIS in early 1998, and TFE in September 1999. Operating income of the Company increased by $9.5 million to $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1999 from an operating loss of $7.3 million in the comparable 1998 period. The increase in operating profit for the comparable year periods is attributable to the decreases in S,G&A discussed above. At the end of the third quarter of 1999, the Company sold substantially all of the assets of its computer maintenance and service business, Telos Field Engineering Inc. ("TFE"), to TFE Technology Holdings L.L.C., an affiliate of Carr & Company, for $10 million. As a result of this sale, the Company has recorded a gain of $4.7 million in its consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999. Telos sold substantially all of the net assets of one of its divisions, TIS, in the first quarter of 1998. The transaction generated approximately $14.7 million in cash proceeds and a gain of $5.7 million was recorded for the year ended December 31, 1998. In order to present the statement of operations in accordance with APB 18, the revenues, cost of sales, selling general and administrative and interest expenses for Enterworks Inc. were presented in one line item "Equity in net losses in Enterworks" due to the deconsolidation of Enterworks on December 30, 1999. (See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements). The equity in net losses in Enterworks for 1999 was $18.8 million. Interest expense decreased $490,000 from $6.6 million in 1998 to $6.1 million for 1999. The decrease for the year period is due to the deconsolidated presentation of Enterworks partially offset by increased debt levels in 1999. The income tax benefit was $7.8 million for the year ended December 31, 1999. The benefit recorded was a result of the net operating losses of the Company, partially offset by the gain from the sale of TFE. For 1998, the Company incurred a tax provision of $1.1 million which was primarily attributable to state income taxes and an increase in allowances relating to the recoverability of deferred tax assets. The Company's net deferred tax asset includes substantial amounts of net operating loss carryforwards. Failure to achieve forecasted taxable income may affect the ultimate realization of the net deferred tax assets. Management's tax strategy contemplates the generation of taxable income in excess of operating losses sufficient in amounts to realize the net deferred tax assets. On December 30, 1999 the Company entered into a number of concurrent transactions with its noteholders and its Enterworks subsidiary (See Note 2 of Consolidated Financial Statements). The two most noteworthy of these transactions affecting Telos were as follows: 1. The Company converted approximately $7.6 million of its Senior Subordinated Notes, Series B, C and D held by investors, plus the accrued interest and the waiver of prepayment premium associated with these notes, into shares of Enterworks' Common Stock currently owned by the Company at an exchange ratio of one share of Enterworks' Common Stock for each $1.00 principal amount of notes payable. These subordinated notes had a maturity date of October 1, 2000. 2. Enterworks purchased 5,000,000 shares of Enterworks' Common Stock owned by the Company at a price of $1.00 per share. This amount was reduced by 20% of the Agent's fee, the Company's pro rata share of the proceeds from the transaction. The net amount received by Telos was $4.7 million. These two transactions resulted in an extraordinary gain, net of tax, of $8.0 million, and is included in the Company's statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999. YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997 Revenue for 1998 was $207.1 million, a $46.7 million or 18.4% decrease from 1997. Approximately $27.6 million of this decrease was attributable to the Products Group, which experienced lower revenue primarily due to the completion of the Immigration and Naturalization Services Contract ("INS Contract") in the third quarter of 1997. The INS contract contributed revenue of $27.8 million in 1997. In addition, the Systems and Support Services Group experienced a $22.8 million decrease in revenue for the year ended December 31, 1998 compared to the same period of 1997. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of TIS in February 1998 and the expiration of its Immigration and Naturalization Services Blanket Purchase Agreement for Field Operation Support Contract ("INS BPA") in the fourth quarter of 1997. TIS and INS BPA contributed revenue of $24.7 million and $12.2 million, respectively, during 1997 with corresponding 1998 revenues of $4.0 million and $100,000, respectively. The declines in Products and Systems and Support Services revenue were partially offset by an increase of $3.7 million, or 108%, in Enterworks revenue for the year ended December 31, 1998 compared to the same period of 1997. Cost of revenue was 88.3% of revenue for 1998, as compared to 86.1% for 1997. The increase in cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue is primarily attributable to unfavorable changes in product mix and the under absorption of infrastructure costs. On a dollar basis, the decrease in cost of revenue for the year is primarily attributable to the decreases in revenue. Gross profit decreased by $11.2 million or 31.6% from 1997 to 1998. The decrease is primarily attributable to the revenue declines discussed above, as well as the unfavorable changes in product mix and under absorption of infrastructure costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $30.8 million in 1998 and $27.1 million in 1997. During 1998, the Company increased expenditures for Enterworks research and development and sales and marketing by $5.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively, as compared to the same 1997 period. Research and development expense for 1998 included a net realizable value adjustment of $1.7 million to capitalized software costs. However, these increases were partially offset by reductions in other SG&A expenditures, relating principally to the consolidation of certain administrative support functions. Goodwill amortization expense decreased $303,000 to $589,000 for 1998, as compared to $892,000 in 1997. This reduction is primarily due to a decrease in the goodwill balance associated with the sale of the TIS division in early 1998. Telos sold substantially all of the net assets of TIS in the first quarter of 1998. The transaction generated $14.7 million in cash proceeds and a gain of $5.7 million.
Interest expense decreased $1.0 million to $6.5 million in 1998, from $7.4 million in 1997. This decrease is due principally to a decrease in the average balance of the Senior Credit Facility for most of 1998 compared to 1997, as well as a reduction in the bank's base rate due to changing economic conditions. The income tax provision was $1.1 million for 1998. The tax provision was primarily attributable to state income taxes, and increases in allowances relating to the recoverability of deferred tax assets. An income tax benefit of $1.3 million was recorded for 1997, principally because the Company reduced its valuation allowance relating to net operating loss carryforwards expected to be utilized as a result of the gain on the TIS sale. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's capital structure consists of a revolving credit facility, subordinated notes, and redeemable preferred stock and common stock. At December 31, 1999, the Company had an outstanding balance of $16.5 million on its $35 million Senior Credit Facility (the "Facility"). The Facility matures on July 1, 2001 and is collateralized by a majority of the Company's assets including inventory, accounts receivable and the Company's stock in Enterworks, Inc. The amount of borrowings fluctuates based on the underlying asset borrowing base. At December 31, 1999, the Company, under its borrowing base formula, had $7.1 million of unused availability. The Facility has various covenants which may, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company to merge with another entity, sell or transfer certain assets, pay dividends and make other distributions beyond certain limitations. The Facility also requires the Company to meet certain leverage, net worth, interest coverage and operating goals. At December 31, 1999, the Company was not in compliance with several covenants contained in the Facility; however, the bank has waived this non-compliance. In addition, the bank has amended the covenants to conform to the Company's 2000 budget expectations. The Company's subordinated notes are held principally by shareholders and management, and totaled $8.5 million at December 31, 1999. These notes bear interest at rates between 14% and 17% and become payable on April 1, 2001. The Company currently has two primary classes of redeemable preferred stock - - Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock and Public Preferred Stock. Each class carries cumulative dividend rates of 12% to 14.125%. At December 31, 1999 the total carrying value of redeemable preferred stock, including accumulated and unpaid dividends, was $43.0 million. The Company accrues dividends and provides for accretion related to the redeemable preferred stock. Mandatory redemption for the Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock including all dividends payable, is required on December 31, 2001, subject to the legal availability of funds. Mandatory redemption for the Public Preferred Stock is required from 2005 through 2009, subject to the legal availability of funds. Cash provided by operating activities was $11.2 million in 1999, due primarily to a decrease in accounts receivable as a result of the sale of TFE and the decline in sales from this year's fourth quarter compared to the prior year's fourth quarter. Cash provided by investing activities was $12.7 million in 1999, reflecting capital expenditures of $1.4 million and $800,000 in continued investments in software development costs related to Enterworks, offset by the proceeds from the sale of TFE of $10 million and the sale of the Company's stock in Enterworks for $4.7 million. The Company used cash from financing activities of $24.0 million in 1999, reflecting principally the net payments on the Facility. In September 1999, the Company sold its TFE division for approximately $10 million. The net proceeds from the sale were used to pay down amounts outstanding under the Facility. In December 1999, Enterworks completed a private placement financing whereby the Company's voting interest in Enterworks was reduced to 34.8%. As a result of this decrease in ownership, effective December 30, 1999 Enterworks has been deconsolidated from the Company's operating results. As a result, the Company will no longer be required to fund the continuing investment needed for Enterworks sales and marketing infrastructure and product development.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES The Company believes that its business is generally not capital intensive. Capital expenditures for property and equipment were $1.4 million in 1999 and $1.2 million in 1998, and $2.6 million in 1997. The Company anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $1.4 million in 2000; however, there can be no assurance that this level of capital expenditures will occur. INFLATION The rate of inflation has been moderate over the past five years and, accordingly, has not had a significant impact on the Company. The Company has generally been able to pass through increased costs to customers through higher prices to the extent permitted by competitive pressures. The Company's cost reduction efforts have generally offset the effects of inflation, if any, on the Company's performance. YEAR 2000 Year 2000 issues refer generally to the problems that some software may have in determining the correct century for the year. For example, software with date-sensitive functions that is not Year 2000 compliant may not be able to distinguish whether "00" means 1900 or 2000, which may result in failures or the creation of erroneous results. The Company, like most owners of computer software, modified significant portions of its internal use software so that it would function properly in the year 2000. Accordingly, the Company has incurred internal staff costs as well as consulting and other expenses related to software and infrastructure enhancements necessary to prepare the systems for the year 2000. Total expenditures for such costs were not material to the Company's consolidated financial statement in 1998 or 1999. The Company completed its internal use software compliance efforts prior to December 31, 1999. There were no major internal systems issues reported over the year 2000 transition. The Company queried its key suppliers and vendors to assess their Year 2000 readiness and was informed that software licensed to the Company for resale was compliant for the Year 2000. No major vendor issues were reported over the Year 2000 transition. As is the case with other similarly situated computer companies, if Telos' current or future customers failed to achieve Year 2000 compliance of if they diverted technology expenditures to address Year 2000 compliance problems, Telos' business, results of operations or financial condition could have been materially adversely affected. For example, agencies of the United States Government are principal customers of the Company. If such agencies experience significant Year 2000 system failures, under terms of typical government contracts, the Company's performance and/or receipt of payments due would have been delayed or contracts could be terminated for convenience, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company. If similar failures were experienced by other customers or potential customers of the Company, this could also have had a material adverse impact on the Company. To the best of the Company's knowledge, none of its major customers experienced significant Year 2000 issues. Because the Company experienced no major year 2000-related issues internally or externally over the year 2000 transition, it does not believe that it will incur material costs or experience material disruptions in its business associated with the year 2000. However, there can be no assurance that the Company's or its suppliers' current product offerings do not contain undetected errors or defects associated with year 2000 date functions. These could give rise to increased customer satisfaction costs related to year 2000 and to litigation over year 2000 compliance issues. In addition, the Company could experience a shift in revenue to the later quarters of 2000 as customers wrap up issues in their IT environments and begin spending more proactively on new projects.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In March 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Position 98-1 ("SOP 98-1"), "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." This standard requires companies to capitalize qualifying computer software costs which incurred during the application development stage and amortize them over the software's estimated useful life. SOP 98-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. The adoption of SOP 98-1 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations. In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting or Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the effective date of FASB Statement No. 133, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133", is effective for all quarters of the Company's year ending December 31, 2001. The Company currently does not engage or plan to engage in the use of derivative instruments, and does not expect SFAS 133 to have a material impact on the results of operations. The Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" ("SAB 101") in December 1999. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of SAB 101 as new business developments occur. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements. For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, the words "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "expects" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. There are a number of important factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forwarding-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, those set forth below under the caption "Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results." CERTAIN FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS The following important factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and presented elsewhere by management from time to time. A number of uncertainties exist that could affect the Company's future operating results, including, without limitation, general economic conditions, the timing and approval of the federal government's fiscal year budget, business growth through obtaining new business and, once obtained, the Company's ability to successfully perform at a profit, the Company's ability to convert contract backlog to revenue, the Company's ability to secure adequate capital and financing to support its business, the success of the Company's investment in Enterworks, and the risk of the federal government terminating contracts with the Company. While the Company has not experienced contract terminations with the federal government, the federal government can terminate at its convenience. Should this occur, the Company's operating results could be adversely impacted. As a high percentage of the Company's revenue is derived from business with the federal government, the Company's operating results could be adversely impacted should the federal government not approve and implement its annual budget in a timely fashion. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company's long-term debt obligations. The Company is exposed to interest rate volatility with regard to its variable rate debt obligations under its Senior Credit Facility. This facility bears interest at 1.00%, subject to certain adjustments, over the bank's base rate. The weighted average interest rate in 1999 was 9.89%. This facility expires on July 1, 2001 and has an outstanding balance of $16.5 million at December 31, 1999. The Company's other long-term debt at December 31, 1999 consists of Senior Subordinated Notes B and C which bear interest at fixed rates ranging from 14% to 17%. The Senior Subordinated Notes mature as to principal in the aggregate amount of $8,537,000 on April 1, 2001. The Company has no cash flow exposure due to rate changes for its Senior Subordinated Notes.

Telos utilizes fixed-price/fixed-time solutions to control costs and increase productivity. The Company, founded in 1968, is incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Telos Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Telos Corporation (California), and Telos International Corporation. The accounts of the Company's investment in Enterworks, Inc., ("Enterworks") have been deconsolidated as of December 30, 1999, and therefore have been removed from the consolidated balance sheet and statement of changes in stockholders equity. The statement of operations includes the results of Enterworks Inc. as "Equity in Net Losses of Enterworks" in accordance with APB 18 (Note 2). Significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements include contract percentage of completion methodology, allowance for accounts receivable, allowance for inventory obsolescence, valuation of goodwill, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, employee benefits and estimated useful lives of goodwill, property and equipment and other noncurrent assets, including software development costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates. REVENUE RECOGNITION The majority of the Company's sales are made directly or indirectly to the federal government. A substantial portion of the Company's revenues are derived from time and materials and cost reimbursement contracts, under which revenue is recognized as services are performed and costs are incurred. The Company generally recognizes product revenue as products are shipped, although certain revenue recognition practices are dependent upon contract terms. Revenue for maintenance contracts is recognized as such services are performed. The Company records loss provisions for its contracts, if required, at the time such losses are identified.
TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Revenue from the licensing of software is recognized in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position ("SOP")97-2 and 98-4,"Software Revenue Recognition". In December 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-9, "Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, with Respect to Certain Transactions". SOP 98-9 requires revenue to be recognized using the "residual method" if certain conditions are met. This approach results in contract discounts being applied to the license with no such allocation to deferred support elements. The Company has adopted the provisions of SOP 98-9 for the year ended December 31, 1999. The adoption of SOP 98-9 did not have a significant effect on the Company's results from operations. Revenue generated from warranty service contracts is recognized ratably over the warranty service period. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company's cash management program utilizes zero balance accounts. Accordingly, all book overdraft balances have been reclassified to accounts payable. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined primarily on the first-in, first-out method. Substantially all inventories consist of purchased hardware and component computer parts used in connection with system integration services performed by the Company. Inventories also include spare parts of $478,000 and $729,000 at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, which are utilized to support maintenance contracts. Spare parts inventory is amortized on a straight line basis over five years. An allowance for obsolete, slow-moving or non-salable inventory is provided for all other inventory. This allowance is based on the Company's overall obsolescence experience and its assessment of future inventory requirements. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company's allowance for product inventory was $1,992,000 and $3,074,000, respectively. The components of the allowance for inventory obsolescence are set forth below (in thousands): Additions Balance, Charged to Balance, Beginning Costs and End Of Year Expense Deductions(1) of Year ------- ------- ------------- ------- Year Ended December 31, 1999 $ 3,074 $ 600 $ 1,682 $ 1,992 Year Ended December 31, 1998 $ 3,915 $ 1,090 $ 1,931 $ 3,074 Year Ended December 31, 1997 $ 2,357 $ 2,150 $ 592 $ 3,915
(1) Inventories written off or transferred to fixed assets. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the individual assets or classes of assets as follows: Buildings 20 Years Machinery and equipment 3-7 Years Office furniture and fixtures 5-7 Years Leasehold improvements Life of Lease Leased property meeting certain criteria is capitalized at the present value of the related minimum lease payments. Amortization of property and equipment under capital leases is computed on the straight-line method over the term of the related lease.TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts, and any gain or loss on such disposition is reflected in the statement of operations. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. The Company's policy on internal use software is in accordance with Statement of Position 98-1 ("SOP 98-1"), "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." This standard requires companies to capitalize qualifying computer software costs which are incurred during the application development stage and amortize them over the software's estimated useful life. Depreciation and amortization expense related to property and equipment, including property and equipment under capital leases, was $2,314,000, $2,460,000 and $2,630,000 for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. GOODWILL Goodwill arose principally from the acquisition of Telos Corporation (California) in 1992 and has been assigned a useful life of twenty years. The useful life considered a number of factors including the Company's maintenance of long-term significant customer relationships for periods of up to twenty-seven years and its strong positions in the marketplace. The Company assesses the potential impairment and recoverability of goodwill on an annual basis and more frequently if factors dictate. Management forecasts are used to evaluate the recovery of goodwill through determining whether amortization of goodwill can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. If an impairment of goodwill is indicated, the impairment is measured based on projected discounted cash flows using a discount rate reflecting the Company's cost of funds. In addition, the Company may assess the net carrying amount of goodwill using internal and/or independent valuations of the Company. Accumulated amortization of goodwill at December 31, 1999 and 1998 was $9,444,000 and $8,955,000 respectively. OTHER ASSETS Until the deconsolidation of Enterworks on December 30, 1999 (Note 2), other noncurrent assets consist principally of capitalized software development costs and debt issuance costs. The balance as of December 31, 1999 consists mostly of refundable deposits. With regard to the capitalized software development cost balances included in the accounts for most of the year, the Company expenses all research and development costs incurred in connection with software development projects until such software achieves technological feasibility, determined based on the achievement of a working model. Costs thereafter are capitalized. The Company amortizes such capitalized costs on a product-by-product basis over the greater of the amount computed using an estimated product life of two years or the ratio that current gross revenues bears to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues. The Company periodically evaluates the realizability of these capitalized costs through consideration of anticipated revenue and gross margin as compared to current revenue and gross margin. At the time a determination is made that capitalized amounts are not recoverable based on the estimated cash flows to be generated from the applicable software product, a loss is recognized. Unamortized software and product costs at December 31, 1999 and 1998 were - -0- and $1.9 million, respectively. Amortization expense associated with these capitalized software and product costs was $1,646,000, $2,044,000, and $1,128,000 in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Additionally, $1,743,000 and $887,000 were written off as net realizable value adjustments in the fourth quarter of 1998 and in the fourth quarter of 1997, respectively. Debt issuance costs are amortized over the term of the underlying financial instrument, which amortization method does not differ significantly from the effective interest method. Due to the retirement of $7.6 million of Series B, C and D subordinated notes in December 1999 (Note 5), $72,000 in debt issue costs were written off in 1999. Unamortized costs amounted to $110,000 and $425,000 at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Under this asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences of temporary differences and income tax credits. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted statutory tax rates that are applicable to the future years in which deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or realized to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. Any change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in net income in the period in which the tax rate change is enacted. The Company provides a valuation allowance that reduces deferred tax assets when it is "more likely than not" that deferred tax assets will not be realized.
TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK BASED COMPENSATION The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method provided by Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Under APB 25, compensation cost is measured as the excess, if any, of the deemed fair market value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant over the exercise price of the option granted. Compensation cost for stock options, if any, is recognized over the vesting period. The Company provides additional pro forma disclosures are made as if the fair value measurement provisions of SFAS No. 123 had been used in determining compensation expense (See Note 7). RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT The Company charges all research and development costs to expense as incurred, until, as in the case of software, technological feasibility is reached after which time such costs are capitalized. During 1999, 1998 and 1997, the Company incurred $7.2 million, $6.1 million and $1.0 million in research and development costs, respectively. EARNINGS PER SHARE In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share." This Statement establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share (EPS). As the Company does not have publicly held common stock or potential common stock, this Statement is not applicable and, accordingly, no EPS data is reported for any of the years presented. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Comprehensive income includes changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. The Company has no comprehensive income components other than its net loss. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company uses various methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is based on the discounted cash flows for similar term borrowings based on market prices for the same or similar issues. The Company has not estimated the fair value of its subordinated debt or its redeemable preferred stock. The Company does not deem such estimation practicable due to the unique features of these instruments. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve matters of judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1998 and 1997 financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In March 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Position 98-1 ("SOP 98-1"), "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." This standard requires companies to capitalize qualifying computer software costs which incurred during the application development stage and amortize them over the software's estimated useful life. SOP 98-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. The adoption of SOP 98-1 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations. In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting or Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the effective date of FASB Statement No. 133, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133", is effective for all quarters of the Company's year ending December 31, 2001. The Company currently does not engage or plan to engage in the use of derivative instruments, and does not expect SFAS 133 to have a material impact on the results of operations. The Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" ("SAB 101") in December 1999. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of SAB 101 as new business developments occur. NOTE 2. DECONSOLIDATION OF ENTERWORKS, INC. SUBSIDIARY On December 30, 1999, Enterworks, Inc. ("Enterworks"), a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed a private placement of 21,739,127 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") at a price of $1.15 per share. The sale generated gross proceeds of $25,000,000. In addition, the Company entered into a series of concurrent transactions pursuant to which the Company's voting interest in Enterworks was reduced to approximately 34.8%. The concurrent transactions were as follows: 1. The Company converted approximately $7.6 million of its Senior Subordinated Notes, Series B, C and D held by investors, plus the accrued interest and the waiver of prepayment premium associated with these notes, into shares of Enterworks' Common Stock currently owned by the Company at an exchange ratio of one share of Enterworks' Common Stock for each $1.00 principal amount of notes payable. These subordinated notes had a maturity date of October 1, 2000. 2. Enterworks purchased 5,000,000 shares of Enterworks' Common Stock owned by the Company at a price of $1.00 per share. This amount was reduced by 20% of the Agent's fee, the Company's pro rata share of the proceeds from the transaction. The net amount received was $4.7 million. This transaction, together with the one described above, resulted in an extraordinary gain, net of tax of $5.3 million, of $8.0 million, which is included in the Company's statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999. 3. Enterworks' payable to the Company, which was approximately $24.4 million at December 30, 1999, was cancelled in its entirety before the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock. The forgiveness of the payable increased the Company's investment in Enterworks. Funding required to cover Enterworks' working capital needs from November 30, 1999 to the date of closing was funded by the Company and will be repaid through collections from Enterworks' trade accounts receivable. This funding approximated $2.0 million. This forgiveness of intercompany debt is deemed by management to be a normal occurrence of a capital raising transaction. 4. Enterworks issued 4,000,000 shares of Enterworks' Common Stock to Telos concurrent with the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock. This issuance increased the Company's investment in Enterworks as it increased the number of shares the Company owned in Enterworks. 5. Enterworks issued a warrant to acquire 350,000 shares of Enterworks' Common Stock to Telos' primary lender, Bank of America, in connection with obtaining the necessary approvals for this offering. The exercise price of the warrant equaled $1.15 per share, the same per share price of the Series A Preferred Stock. This warrant was recorded at its fair market value as a charge to interest expense and a reduction to the Company's investment in Enterworks as it increased the number of shares the Company owned in Enterworks. 6. Telos contributed 210,912 shares of Enterworks' Common Stock owned by Telos to the Enterworks Treasury for the subsequent grant of warrants to the Agent, Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown. This issuance of warrants was also part of the Agent's fee. This contribution of shares was also a charge to interest expense and a reduction to the Company's investment in Enterworks.
TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As a result of the reduction of the Company's ownership percentage in Enterworks the Company has changed its method of accounting for its Enterworks subsidiary from the consolidation method to the equity method. Pursuant to this change the revenues, costs and expenses of Enterworks have been excluded from their respective captions in the Company's consolidated statement of operations, and the Company's interest in the losses of Enterworks have been reported separately as "Equity in Net Losses of Enterworks." Additionally, the assets, liabilities, and equity of Enterworks will be excluded from their respective consolidated balance sheet captions and the Company will establish an "Investment in Enterworks" account in accordance with Accounting Principles Board PB 18. As of December 30, 1999, the balance is zero in the Investment in Enterworks account. The results of operations of Enterworks included in the "Equity in Net Losses in Enterworks" caption are comprised of the following: Sales $ 11,079 Cost of sales (6,795) Selling, general and administrative expenses (21,695) Interest expense (1,354) -------- Loss before income taxes $(18,765) ======== NOTE 3.SALE OF ASSETS On September 29, 1999, the Company sold substantially all of the assets of its computer maintenance and service business, Telos Field Engineering, Inc. ("TFE"), to TFE Technology Holdings, LLC ("TFE Holdings"), an affiliate of Carr & Company, for $10 million. As a result of this sale, the Company has recorded a gain of $4.7 million in its consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999. This gain included a write-off of $2.1 million of goodwill allocated to TFE operations. The Company and TFE Holdings entered into a one-year corporate services agreement on the date of the sale. Under the terms of the Agreement, Telos will continue to provide certain administrative support functions to TFE Holdings, including but not limited to finance and accounting and human resources, in return for a monthly payment. In February 1998, Telos sold substantially all of the net assets of one of its support services divisions, Telos Information Systems ("TIS"), to NYMA, Inc., a subsidiary of Federal Data Corporation of Bethesda, Maryland, for approximately $14.7 million in cash. In connection with this sale, the Company has recorded a gain of $5.7 million in its consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 1998, which included a write-off of $4.9 million of goodwill allocated to TIS operations.
TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 4. REVENUE AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE Revenue resulting from contracts and subcontracts with federal, state, and local governments accounted for 94.1%, 94.9% and 96.1% of consolidated revenue in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. As the Company's primary customer is the federal government, the Company has a concentration of credit risk associated with its accounts receivable. However, the Company does not believe the likelihood of loss arising from such concentration is significant. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral from its customers. The Company maintains allowances for potential losses. The components of accounts receivable are as follows (in thousands): DECEMBER 31, 1999 1998 ---- ---- Billed Accounts Receivable $22,592 $ 48,222 ------ ------ Amounts billable upon acceptance by customer 2,841 1,422 Amounts Currently Billable 2,427 7,878 ------ ------- Total Unbilled Accounts Receivable 5,268 9,300 ------ ------- Allowance for Doubtful Accounts (830) (739) ------- ------ $27,030 $56,783 ====== ====== The components of the allowance for doubtful accounts are set forth below (in thousands): Additions Balance, Charged to Balance, Beginning Costs and End of of Year Expense Deductions(1) Year ------- ------- ---------- ---- Year ended December 31, 1999 $ 739 $ 400 $ (309) $ 830 Year ended December 31, 1998 964 39 (264) 739 Year ended December 31, 1997 925 490 (451) 964
1. Accounts receivable written-off NOTE 5.DEBT OBLIGATIONS SENIOR REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY At December 31, 1999, the Company has a $35 million Senior Revolving Credit Facility (the "Facility") with a bank which expires on July 1, 2001 and has an outstanding balance of $16.5 million. Borrowings under the facility are collateralized by a majority of the Company's assets including accounts receivable, inventory, and the remaining Enterworks stock owned by the Company. The lien the bank held on the sold stock in Enterworks, Inc. as well as the accounts receivable balance of Enterworks was released in order to complete the Enterworks transaction and subsequent deconsolidation (Note 2). The amount of the available borrowings fluctuates based on the underlying asset borrowing base. The facility requires payment of a fee of .25% of the unused portion of the Facility. The Facility bears interest at 1.00%, subject to certain adjustments, over the bank's base rate, which was 9.5% at December 31, 1999. The weighted average interest rate on the outstanding borrowings under the Facility was 9.89% for 1999 compared with 9.95% for 1998. At December 31, 1999, the Company had approximately $7.1 million available under the Facility. The Facility has various covenants which may, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company to merge with another entity, sell or transfer certain assets, pay dividends and make other distributions beyond certain limitations. The Facility also requires the Company to meet certain leverage, net worth, interest coverage and operating goals. At December 31, 1999, the Company was not in compliance with several covenants contained in the Facility; however, the bank has waived such non-compliance. In addition, the bank has amended the covenants to conform to the Company's 2000 budget expectations. The carrying value of the Facility at December 31, 1999 and 1998 approximates fair value.TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES In 1995 the Company issued Senior Subordinated Notes ("Notes") to certain shareholders. The Notes are classified as either Series B or Series C. Series B Notes are collateralized by fixed assets of the Company. Series C Notes are unsecured. Both the Series B and Series C Notes have a maturity date of April 1, 2001 and have interest rates ranging from 14% to 17%. Interest is paid quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 of each year. The Notes can be prepaid at the Company's option. Additionally, these Notes have a cumulative payment premium of 13.5% per annum payable only upon certain circumstances. These circumstances include an initial public offering of the Company's common stock or a significant refinancing, to the extent that net proceeds from either of the above events are received and are sufficient to pay the premium. Due to the contingent nature of the premium payment, the associated premium expense will only be recorded after the occurrence of a triggering event. At December 31, 1999, the prepayment premium that would be due upon a triggering event is $6.3 million. In conjunction with the Enterworks private placement offering (See Note 2), the Company retired approximately $1.0 million of Series B Notes, $4.8 million of Series C Notes, and $1.8 million of Series D Notes in exchange for shares of Enterworks' common stock owned by the Company at an exchange ratio of one share of Enterworks' common stock for each $1.00 principal amount of notes payable. In addition to the retirement of these notes, accrued interest of approximately $300,000 was forgiven and the holders of these notes waived their rights to the prepayment premium associated with these notes. The balances of the Series B and Series C Notes were $5.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively, at December 31, 1999 compared to balances of $6.5 million and $7.9 million, respectively, at December 31, 1998. In November 1998, the Company issued additional Senior Subordinated Notes to certain shareholders which are classified as Series D. The Series D Notes total $1.8 million and were unsecured. The Series D Notes had a maturity date of October 1, 2000 and bear interest at 14% per annum. Interest was paid quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 of each year. The notes could have been prepaid at the Company's option. These Notes contained the same payment premium provisions as the Series B and Series C Notes (see above). In connection with the debt, the Company issued 1,500,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $.01 and an exercise period of 22 months. The Company has assigned a value to the warrants of $420,000 which has been included in capital in excess of par. These notes were retired in conjunction with the Enterworks private placement (Note 2), making the outstanding carrying balance zero at December 31, 1999 compared to $1.4 million at December 31, 1998. ENTERWORKS SUBORDINATED NOTES During 1996, Enterworks completed a private financing whereby $3,278,000 of 8% subordinated notes payable were issued. Approximately $2,278,000 of the senior subordinated notes were payable to certain numbers of Telos' Board of Directors, management and certain Telos stockholders. The subordinated notes payable had a five-year maturity. Interest was paid quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 of each year, commencing on January 1, 1998. In connection with the financing, Enterworks issued 2,048,725 detachable warrants to purchase shares of Enterworks common stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $1.00, were immediately exercisable and expire in July 2006. The estimated fair value of the warrants of $922,000 was recorded to capital in excess of par. Interest expense in the accompanying statements of operations includes $142,000, $167,000, and $555,000 (including $359,000 related to the acceleration of accretion at the time of repayment) in 1997, 1998, and 1999, respectively, for accretion of the difference between the carrying value and face value of these notes payable. In connection with Enterworks' December 1999 issuance of Series A Preferred Stock (Note 2), $572,000 of subordinated notes payable were paid and $2,706,000 were converted into Enterworks' Common Stock.
TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 6. REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK SENIOR REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK The components of the senior redeemable preferred stock are Series A-1 and Series A-2, each with $.01 par value and 1,250 and 1,750 shares authorized, issued and outstanding, respectively. The Series A-1 and Series A-2 each carry a cumulative dividend rate of 14.125% per annum of their liquidation value of $1,000 per share. The dividends are payable semi-annually on June 30 and December 31 of each year. The liquidation preference of the preferred stock is the face amount of the Series A-1 and A-2 Stock ($1,000 per share), plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. The Company is required to redeem all of the outstanding shares of the stock on December 31, 2001, subject to the legal availability of funds. Mandatory redemptions are required from excess cash flows, as defined in the stock agreements. The Series A-1 and A-2 redeemable preferred stock is senior to all other present and future equity of the Company. The Series A-1 is senior to the Series A-2. The Company has not declared dividends on its senior redeemable preferred stock since its issuance. At December 31, 1999 and 1998 undeclared, unpaid dividends relating to Series A-1 and A-2 redeemable preferred stock totaled $3,054,000 and $2,631,000, respectively, and have been accrued and are included in the Series A-1 and A-2 redeemable preferred stock balances. 12% CUMULATIVE EXCHANGEABLE REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK A maximum of 6,000,000 shares of 12% Cumulative Exchangeable Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, has been authorized for issuance. The Company initially issued 2,858,723 shares of 12% Cumulative Exchangeable Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Public Preferred Stock") pursuant to the acquisition of the Company during fiscal year 1990. The Public Preferred Stock was recorded at fair value on the date of original issue, November 21, 1989, and the Company is making periodic accretions under the interest method of the excess of the redemption value over the recorded value. Accretion for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 was 1,424,000 and $1,528,000, respectively. The Company declared stock dividends totaling 736,863 shares in 1990 and 1991. In November 1998, the Company retired 410,000 shares of the Public Preferred Stock held by certain shareholders. The Company repurchased the stock at $4.00 per share. The carrying value of these shares was determined to be $3.8 million, and the $2.2 million excess of the carrying amount of these shares of Public Preferred Stock over the redemption price of $1.6 million was recorded as an increase in capital in excess of par; there was no impact on income from this transaction. The Public Preferred Stock has a 20 year maturity; however, the Company must redeem, out of funds legally available, 20% of the Public Preferred Stock on the 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th anniversaries of November 21, 1989, leaving 20% to be redeemed at maturity. On any dividend payment date after November 21, 1991, the Company may exchange the Public Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, for 12% Junior Subordinated Debentures that are redeemable upon terms substantially similar to the Public Preferred Stock and subordinated to all indebtedness for borrowed money and like obligations of the Company. The Public Preferred Stock accrues a semi-annual dividend at an annual rate of 12% ($1.20) per share, based on the liquidation preference of $10 per share, and is fully cumulative. Through November 21, 1995, the Company had the option to pay dividends in additional shares of Preferred Stock in lieu of cash. Following November 21, 1995, dividend are only payable in cash. Dividends in additional shares of the Preferred Stock are paid at the rate of 6% of a share of the Preferred Stock for each $.60 of such dividends not paid in cash. Dividends are payable by the Company, provided the Company has legally available funds under Maryland law, when and if declared by the Board of Directors, commencing June 1, 1990, and on each six month anniversary thereof. For the years 1992 through 1994 and for the dividend payable June 1, 1995, the Company has accrued undeclared dividends in additional shares of preferred stock. These accrued dividends are valued at $3,950,000. Had the Company accrued such dividends on a cash basis, the total amount accrued would have been $15,101,000. For the cash dividends payable since December 1, 1995, the Company has accrued $18,677,000.

STOCK WARRANTS In 1994, Toxford Corporation deposited $3 million with the Company's bank to provide the Company with increased borrowing capability under its Facility (see Note 5). In exchange, Toxford Corporation was issued 500,000 shares of Class A common stock for which the Company recorded additional interest expense of $410,000. The Company also granted Toxford Corporation warrants to acquire 7,228,916 shares of the Company's Class A common stock at a purchase price of $.83 per share which approximated the estimated market value of the Company's common stock at the issuance date. In November 1998, 840,000 of these warrants were transferred to certain other shareholders of the Company. The warrant is fully exercisable and has a term of ten years from the date of issue. STOCK OPTIONS The Company has granted stock options to certain employees of the Company under four plans. The Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan was adopted in 1990 ("1990 Stock Option Plan") and had option grants under it through 1993. In 1993, stock option plan agreements were reached with certain employees. In 1996, the Board of Directors approved and the shareholders ratified the 1996 Stock Option Plan ("1996 Stock Option Plan"). The Company generally grants options under its respective plans at the estimated fair value at the date of grant. Fair value is determined by the members of the option committee based upon all information available to it. 1990 STOCK OPTION PLAN Under the terms of the 1990 Stock Option Plan, 2,168,215 shares of the Company's Class A common stock are available for issuance under options to key employees, including officers and directors. The option price determined by the Board of Directors was not less than the fair market value at the date of the grant and the options are generally exercisable over a four-year period.

TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OTHER OPTION PLANS In 1993, stock option plan agreements were reached to provide Mr. John Wood, CEO and President, and Mr. Joseph Beninati, former Chairman, with options to each purchase up to 700,459 shares of the Company's Class A common stock from the Company at $0.50 per share. Under the terms of the agreements, 350,230 shares vested immediately and the remainder vested ratably over the next twelve months. The Company recorded compensation expense related to these options based upon the difference between the exercise price and the estimated fair value of $0.82 per share at the measurement date of the stock option. Mr. Beninati's agreement was canceled in 1996 and the shares now available will be administered under the same terms as the 1996 Stock Option Plan.

Had the Company determined compensation cost consistent with SFAS No. 123 methodology, net (loss) income would have been ($2,743,000), ($9,666,000), and $1,073,000 in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

TELOS SHARED SAVINGS PLAN The Company sponsors a defined contribution employee savings plan (the "Plan") under which substantially all full-time employees are eligible to participate. The Company matches one-half of voluntary participant contributions to the Plan up to a maximum Company contribution of 3% of a participant's salary. Total Company contributions to this Plan for 1999, 1998, and 1997 were $1,080,000, $835,000, and $1,335,000, respectively.

TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 1999 and 1998 are as follows (in thousands): DECEMBER 31, ------------------------- 1999 1998 ---- ---- Deferred tax assets: Accounts receivable, principally due to allowance for doubtful accounts $ 161 $ 153 Allowance for inventory obsolescence and amortization 946 1,377 Accrued liabilities not currently deductible 1,842 794 Accrued compensation 1,786 1,562 Property and equipment, principally due to differences in depreciation methods 895 396 Net operating loss carryforwards 2,174 5,660 Alternative minimum tax credit carryforward 703 703 ----- ----- Total gross deferred tax assets 8,507 10,645 Less valuation allowance (572) (4,987) ----- -------- Net deferred tax assets 7,935 5,658 ----- ----- Deferred tax liabilities: Unbilled accounts receivable, deferred for tax purposes (203) (317) Software development costs -- (735) ------ ------ Total deferred tax liabilities (203) (1,052) ------- ------- Net deferred tax assets $7,732 $4,606 ====== ====== The components of the valuation allowance are as follows (in thousands): Balance at Additions Balance at Beginning of Charged to End of Period Expenses Deductions Period ------ -------- ---------- ------ December 31, 1999 $ 4,987 $ -- $(4,415)(1) $ 572 December 31, 1998 2,974 2,013 -- 4,987 December 31, 1997 4,702 -- (1,728) 2,974
(1) Included $2,115 attributable to Enterworks The net change in the valuation allowance was a decrease of $2,300,000 for 1999 and an increase of $2,013,000 for 1998. The decrease in the valuation allowance for 1999 is attributable to management's view that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized with forecasted taxable income which justifies the recognition of the net deferred tax assets recorded. The above deferred tax assets and liabilities were adjusted to reflect the deconsolidation of Enterworks from Telos on December 30, 1999. At December 31, 1999, for federal income tax purposes the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of $4,012,000 available to offset future regular taxable income. These net operating loss carryforwards expire in 2011 through 2015. Additionally, $2,439,000 of alternative minimum tax net operating loss carryforwards are available to offset future alternative minimum taxable income. These alternative minimum tax net operating loss carryforwards also expire from 2011 through 2015. In addition, the Company has $703,000 of alternative minimum tax credits available to be carried forward indefinitely to reduce future regular tax liabilities.TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES LEASES The Company leases office space and equipment under non-cancelable operating and capital leases with various expiration dates, some of which contain renewal options.

REPORTABLE BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Company adopted SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", in 1998 which changes the way the Company reports information about its operating segments. The information for 1998 and 1997 has been restated from the prior year's presentation in order to conform to the 1999 presentation. The Company has three reportable segments: Systems and Support Services - provides software development and support services for software and hardware including technology insertion, system redesign and software re-engineering. This segment consists of four divisions - solutions, services, international, and systems (systems was sold in February 1998 as discussed in Note 2). The principal market for this segment is the Federal government and its agencies. Products - delivers information security, enterprise integration and networking infrastructure solutions to its customers. These solutions include providing commercial hardware, software and services to its customers. The Products group is capable of staging, installing and deploying large network infrastructures with virtually no disruption to customer's ongoing operations. The principal market for this segment is the Federal government and its agencies. Enterworks - develops, markets and supports a software framework that integrates content and processes for companies seeking to participate in e-business. They target operators and users of e-marketplaces and portals. E-marketplaces and portals are Web-based destinations where employees, customers, partners and suppliers can interact to obtain information about products and services, and conduct business more efficiently. Enterworks product enables customers to build or join e-marketplaces and portals rapidly, add new content and e-business participants easily, and automate the end-to-end processes required for e-business interaction.

These products offer numerous competitive advantages over traditional solutions by combining both content and process integration, and by guiding people through e-business interactions. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1. The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on revenue, gross profit and income before goodwill amortization, income taxes, non-recurring items and interest income or expense. Summarized financial information concerning the Company's reportable segments is shown in the following table. The "other" column includes corporate related items.

(d) In the event of a Final Computation, Purchaser and Seller shall jointly pay the expense of the Final Computation. If Purchaser does not deliver the Disagreement Notice on a timely basis to Seller, then Purchaser shall be deemed to agree with and accept the Determination, which shall be final and conclusive against Purchaser and Seller.

(c) Purchaser shall forever defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller, Shareholder and Telos from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, claims, damages (including incidental and consequential damages), costs and expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorney's fees) related to or arising from the Business or any contract or agreement that is listed on SCHEDULE 4.8 AFTER THE CLOSING DATE; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no indemnification shall be required of Purchaser hereunder for any such liabilities, obligations, losses, claims, damages, etc., if they were caused by the action or inaction of either of Seller, Shareholder and Telos or any employee or officer thereof, or if they relate to a contract which has not been assigned, subcontracted or novated to Purchaser. 3.6 TRANSFER TAXES.

Certain of the parties may terminate this Agreement as provided below: (a) Purchaser, Seller, Shareholder and Telos may terminate this Agreement by mutual written consent at any time prior to the Closing; (b) Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller at any time prior to the Closing if Seller, Shareholder or Telos is in material breach of this Agreement; (c) Seller, Shareholder or Telos may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Purchaser at any time prior to the Closing if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before September 30, 1999, by reason of the failure of any condition precedent under Section 7 hereof (unless the failure results primarily from Seller, Shareholder or Telos breaching any representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement); (d) Purchaser shall have the right in its good faith discretion, to terminate this Agreement at any time prior to Closing if any material adverse change in the Business or Assets occurs or if any information is subsequently disclosed in the Schedules to be delivered by Seller hereunder after the date of execution of this Agreement which information may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Business or the Assets following the date hereof. 8.2 EFFECT OF TERMINATION. If any party terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1 above, then all obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any liability of any party to any other party (except for any liability of any party then in breach of this Agreement). 9.

SPECIAL CLOSING AND POST-CLOSING COVENANTS. 10.1 DELIVERY OF FUNDS AND OTHER ASSETS COLLECTED BY PURCHASER; POWER OF ATTORNEY. To the extent Purchaser receives any funds or other assets in payment of receivables for work-in-process incurred prior to the Closing Date or the other Excluded Assets, then Purchaser shall immediately deliver such funds and assets to Seller and take all steps necessary to vest title to such funds and assets in Seller. Purchaser hereby designates Seller as Purchaser's true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to execute or endorse for the benefit of Seller any checks, notes or other documents received by Purchaser in payment of or in substitution or exchange for any of the Excluded Assets.

Each of Seller, Shareholder and Telos hereby designates Purchaser and its officers as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to execute or endorse for the benefit of Purchaser any checks, notes or other documents received by Seller or Stockholder or Telos in payment of or in substitution or exchange for any of the Assets. Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that the power of attorney set forth in the preceding sentence is coupled with an interest, and further agrees to execute and deliver to Purchaser from time to time any documents or instruments reasonably requested by Purchaser to evidence such power of attorney. 10.3 CONSENTS OF THIRD PARTIES. (A) LANDLORDS. Within sixty (60) days following the Closing, Seller shall have used its best efforts to obtain consents from all lessors of real property leased by Seller to the assignment of such leases to Purchaser without any amendment, modification or change in the terms of any of such leases. (B) CUSTOMERS. Seller, Shareholder and Telos shall use their best efforts to obtain, as soon as is practicable, a consent to assignment or novation of all of the contracts comprising part of the Assets to Purchaser without any amendment, modification or change in the terms of such contracts. 10.4 USE OF TELOS NAME. For a period of two (2) years from the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have an exclusive license to use the names "Telos Field Engineering" and "TFE" in the operation of the Business post-Closing, including, without limitation, the use of such names on, in or relating to letterhead, invoices, business cards, marketing materials, advertisements, press RELEASES, PACKAGING MATERIALS, AND VERBAL COMMUNICATIONS; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such license does not include the use of the name "Telos" by itself or in connection with any other words other than expressly set forth above. 10.5 TAXES. (A) TAX RETURN FILINGS. Seller shall timely prepare and file with the relevant Taxing Authorities all Tax Returns of Seller the due date for filing of which, determined taking into account extensions, is after the Closing Date. Seller shall timely prepare and file with the relevant Taxing Authorities all Tax Returns for any taxable periods of Seller the due date for filing of which, determined taking into account extensions, is on or before the Closing Date. Any Tax Returns described in the preceding sentence shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the past practices of Seller. Seller shall reimburse Purchaser (in accordance with Section 11.6) for any amount owed by Seller with respect to the taxable periods covered by such Tax Returns. All Tax Returns for a taxable period including the Closing Date shall be filed on the basis that the relevant taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date, unless the relevant Taxing Authority will not accept such a Tax Return. (B) STRADDLE PERIODS. In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a "Straddle Period"): (I) Real, Personal and Intangible Property Taxes ("Property Taxes") of Seller for the Pre-closing Tax Period shall equal the Property Taxes for such Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Period that are in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period; and (ii) the Taxes of Seller (other than Property Taxes) for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be computed as if the entire Straddle Period ended as of the close of business on the day before the Closing Date. (C) COOPERATION. Seller and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate, and shall cause their respective affiliates, officers, employees, agents, auditors and representatives reasonably to cooperate, in preparing and filing all Tax Returns, including maintaining and making available to each other all records necessary in connection with Taxes, and in resolving all disputes and audits with respect to all taxable periods relating to Taxes, including all Tax Claims (as defined below). (D) REFUNDS AND CREDITS. Any refund or credit of Taxes of Seller for any taxable period ending before the Closing Date shall be for the account of Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, any such refund or credit shall be for the account of Purchaser to the extent that such refunds or credits are attributable (determined on a marginal basis) to the carryback from a Post-Closing Tax Period (or the portion of a Straddle Period that begins on the Closing Date) of items of loss, deductions or other Tax items of Purchaser (or any of its affiliates). Any refund or credit of Taxes of Purchaser for any Post-Closing Tax Period shall be for the account of Purchaser. Any refund or credit of Taxes of Purchaser for any Straddle Period shall be equitably apportioned between Seller and Purchaser. Each party shall, or shall cause its affiliates to, forward to any other party entitled under this Section 10.5(d) to any refund or credit of Taxes any such refund within 10 days after such refund is received or reimburse such other party for any such credit within 10 days after the credit is allowed or applied against other tax liability; provided, however, that any such amounts shall be net of any tax cost or benefit to the payor party attributable to the receipt of such refund and/or the payment of such amounts to the payee party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the control of the prosecution of a claim for refund of Taxes paid pursuant to a deficiency assessed subsequent to the Closing Date as a result of an audit shall be governed by the provisions of Section 10.5(e). (E) PROCEDURES RELATING TO INDEMNIFICATION OF TAX CLAIMS. (I) NOTICE. If a claim shall be made by any Taxing Authority, which, if successful, might result in an indemnity payment to any Purchaser Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11, Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller or Shareholder in writing OF SUCH CLAIM (A "TAX CLAIM"). Failure to give notice of a Tax Claim to Seller or Shareholder within a sufficient period of time and in reasonably sufficient detail to allow Seller to effectively contest such Tax Claim shall affect the liability of Seller to any Purchaser Indemnitee only to the extent that Seller's position is actually and materially prejudiced as a result thereof. (II) CONTROL OF PROCEEDINGS. Seller shall control all proceedings taken in connection with any Tax Claim relating solely to Taxes of Seller for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, and may make all decisions in connection with such Tax Claim. Seller and Purchaser shall jointly control all proceedings taken in connection with any Tax Claim relating solely to Taxes of Seller for a Straddle Period, and neither party shall settle any such Tax Claim without the written consent of the other party. Purchaser shall control all proceedings with respect to all other Tax Claims. 10.6 PERFORMANCE BONDS. As to contracts which are subcontracted to Purchaser at the Closing, Purchaser agrees to pay Seller's premiums on the outstanding performance bonds related to such subcontracted contracts until Purchaser replaces such bonds within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date. As to contracts not assigned or subcontracted to Purchaser at the Closing, Purchaser agrees to pay Seller's premium on the outstanding performance bonds until Purchaser replaces such performance bonds at the time at which such contracts are assigned to Purchaser. If such bonds are not replaced by Purchaser within a thirty (30) day period for contracts which have been subcontracted to Purchaser at the Closing or within the period to assign the contracts not subcontracted to Purchaser at the Closing, then Purchaser agrees to establish a cash escrow for the amount of such performance bonds of Seller then outstanding and shall allow Seller to draw the respective funds from such escrow. 11. INDEMNITY BY SELLER, SHAREHOLDER AND TELOS. 11.1 INDEMNITY. SELLER, SHAREHOLDER AND TELOS (collectively, the "indemnifying parties") shall and hereby do, jointly and severally, indemnify, hold harmless and defend purchaser, its affiliates and their officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, representatives and consultants (collectively, the "indemnified parties") at all times from and after the date of this agreement, from and against any and all penalties, demands, damages, punitive damages, losses, loss of profits, liabilities, suits, costs, costs of any settlement or judgment, claims of any and every kind whatsoever, refund obligations (including, without limitation, interest and penalties thereon), remediation costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees), of or to any of the indemnified parties ("damages"), which may now or in the future be paid, incurred or suffered by or asserted against the Indemnified Parties by any Person resulting or arising from or incurred in connection with any one or more of the following (provided that this Section 11 shall not apply to any items that have been expressly assumed by Purchaser under this Agreement): (a) any liability (whether in contract, in tort or otherwise, and whether or not successful) of or against Seller, Shareholder or Telos or related in any way to the Business or Assets of any of them (including any liability of Seller, Shareholder or Telos under all ERISA laws); (b) any liability (whether in contract, in tort or otherwise, and whether or not successful) related in any way to the Assets or the Business to the extent such liability arises in connection with any action, omission or event occurring on or prior to the Closing Date; (c) any liability (whether in contract, in tort or otherwise, and whether or not successful) related to any liens, obligations or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever against or in any way related to the Assets or the Business which have not been expressly assumed by the Purchaser hereunder; (D) (I) ALL LIABILITY FOR TAXES of Seller and each Seller Group with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (ii) all liability for Taxes of such Seller or any other corporation which is or has ever been affiliated with such Seller or with whom Seller otherwise joins, has ever joined, or is or has ever been required to join in filing any consolidated, combined or unitary Tax Return prior to the Closing Date, (iii) all liability for Taxes of Seller or any Seller Group arising (directly or indirectly) as a result of the sale of the Assets or the other transactions contemplated hereby, (iv) any breach of any representation or warranty contained in Section 4, and (v) all liability for reasonable legal fees and expenses attributable to any item in the foregoing clauses. (e) any liability (whether or not successful) related to any lawsuit or threatened lawsuit or claim involving Seller, Shareholder or Telos, Including But Not Limited To, Those Items Listed On Schedule 4.12 Hereto; (f) any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or non-fulfillment of any covenant or agreement on the part of Seller, Shareholder or Telos under this Agreement or from any misrepresentation in or omission from any list, schedule, certificate or other instrument furnished or to be furnished to Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (g) all actions, suits, proceedings, demands, assessments, adjustments, costs and expenses (including costs of court and reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incident to any of the foregoing. 11.2 AMOUNT OF LOSS. The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Article 11 shall be net of any amounts recoverable by the indemnified party under insurance policies with respect to such Loss and shall be (i) increased to take account of any net Tax cost to the indemnified party arising from the receipt of indemnity payments hereunder (grossed up for such increase), and (ii) reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit realized by the indemnified party arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Loss. Any indemnity payment under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless a final determination (which shall include the execution of a Form 870AD or successor form) with respect to the indemnified party or any of its affiliates causes any such payment not to be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for United States Federal income tax purposes. 11.3 LIMITATION OF CERTAIN LIABILITY. To the extent the Indemnified Parties incur or suffer Damages for any matter for which Seller and Shareholder and Telos are obligated to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Purchaser under Section 11.1(f) above, Seller and Shareholder shall not be liable for any such Damages until Purchaser has suffered aggregate losses by reason of all such misrepresentations, breaches of warranty and/or non-fulfillments of covenants or agreements on the part of Seller and/or Shareholder And/or Telos in Excess of $150,000.00; Provided, However, That the Limitation Set Forth Above Specifically Shall Not Apply to Damages (Y) Resulting From or Attributable to Intentional fraud or any willful misconduct by Seller, Shareholder or Telos, or (z) for any matter or matters (other than those set out in Section 11.1(f) above) for which Seller, Shareholder or Telos is obligated to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Purchaser. The provisions of this Section 11.3 will terminate on the second anniversary of the Closing Date, except for Damages relating to any Taxes, which shall not terminate until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. 11.4 NOTICE OF CLAIM. Purchaser agrees that upon its discovery of facts giving rise to a claim for indemnity under the provisions of this Agreement, including receipt by it or any Indemnified Party of notice of any demand, assertion, claim, action or proceeding, judicial or otherwise, by any person with respect to any matter as to which any of the Indemnified Parties are entiTled to Indemnity Under the Provisions of This Agreement (Such Actions Being Collectively Referred to in This Section 11 as the "Claim"), Purchaser Will Give Prompt Notice Thereof in Writing to Telos; Provided, However, That Any delay in giving or failure to give such notice shall not limit the rights of Purchaser or any Indemnified Party to indemnity hereunder, and Purchaser shall have no liability for such delay or failure, except to the extent that Telos is shown to have been materially damaged by such delay or failure. 11.5 RIGHT TO DEFEND. Any Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, at its sole cost and expense, to contest and defend by all appropriate legal proceedings any Claim with respect to which any such indemnifying party is called upon to indemnify any of the indemnified parties under the provisions of this agreement; provided, however, that notice of the intention so to contest shall be delivered by such indemnifying party to purchaser within twenty (20) days from the effective date of notice to telos by purchaser of the assertion of the claim; and provided further, however, that such right to contest and defend shall exist only if such Indemnifying Party have (i) admitted in writing to Purchaser the obligation of such Indemnifying Party to pay the indemnified obligations to the Indemnified Parties with respect to the Claim, and (ii) have provided the Indemnified Parties with satisfactory evidence of it's ability to pay any indemnity obligation that reasonably may arise under the Claim. Any such contest may be conducted in the name and on behalf of Purchaser. Such contest shall be conducted by reputable attorneys employed by such Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, but Purchaser shall have the right to participate in such proceedings and to be represented by attorneys of its own choosing at its cost and expense. If, after such opportunity, any Indemnifying Party have not satisfied all requirements for the contest of a claim by them (i.e., timely election, admission of liability and proof of ability regarding payment), then such Indemnifying Party shall (i) at their expense, except for travel expenses requested to be incurred by Purchaser, reasonably cooperate with Purchaser with respect to defense of the Claim, and (ii) be bound by the result obtained with respect to the Claim by Purchaser. At any time after the commencement of defense of any Claim, such Indemnifying Party may request Purchaser to accept a bona fide offer from the other parties to the Claim for a cash settlement payable solely from such Indemnifying Party (which places no burdens or restrictions on Purchaser and does not otherwise prejudice Purchaser), whereupon such action shall be taken unless Purchaser determines that the contest should be continued, and so notifies such Indemnifying Party in writing within fifteen (15) days of such request from such Indemnifying Party. In the event that, after such a request by such Indemnifying Party for acceptance of a bona fide cash settlement offer, Purchaser determines that the contest should be continued, such Indemnifying Party shall be liable for indemnity hereunder only to the extent of the lesser of (i) the amount which the other party to the contested Claim had agreed to accept in settlement as of the time the such Indemnifying Party made its request therefore to Purchaser, or (ii) such amount for which such Indemnifying Party may be liable with respect to such Claim by reason of the provisions hereof. 11.6 COOPERATION BY PURCHASER. If requested by any Indemnifying Party, Purchaser and its officers and employees shall reasonably cooperate with such Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Claim with respect to which such Indemnifying Party Have Satisfied All Requirements for a Contest by Them as Set Forth in Section 12 Above; Provided, However, That Such Indemnifying Party shall reimburse Purchaser for any actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in so cooperating. 11.7 PAYMENT. The Indemnifying Parties shall promptly pay to Purchaser or such other Indemnified Party as may be entitled to indemnity hereunder in cash the amount of any Damages to which Purchaser or such Indemnified Party may become entitled by reason of the provisions of this Agreement. 12. LEASE AGREEMENT. Purchaser shall assume the leases for the office space currently used by Seller in connection with the operation of the business and that are listed on schedule 12 hereto. Purchaser will, from and after Closing, hold harmless Seller from any liability thereunder accruing after Closing. 13. NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT. As part of the inducement for Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and for the payment of the Purchase Price as provided by Section 3.1, the parties hereby agree to the provisions of this Section 13. For a period commencing on the date hereof through the third anniversary of the Closing Date, neither Seller nor Shareholder nor Telos, shall (i) within the territorial boundaries of the United States, compete directly with Purchaser insofar as the Assets, Business and transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) solicit directly any of the accounts of Seller regarding the Assets or the Business, or (iii) solicit for employment by Seller or Shareholder or Telos any of the employees of the Business. Each of Seller, Shareholder and Telos agrees that the limitations set forth herein on the rights of Seller, Shareholder and Telos to compete with Purchaser are reasonable and necessary for the protection of Purchaser. In that regard, Seller, Shareholder and Telos specifically agree that the limitations as to period of time and geographic area, as well as all other restrictions on its activities specified herein, are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Purchaser. Seller, Shareholder and Telos each further recognize and agree that violation of any of the agreements contained in this Section 13 will cause irreparable damage or injury to Purchaser, the exact amount of which may be impossible to ascertain, and that, for such reason, among others, Purchaser shall be entitled to an injunction, without the necessity of posting a bond, regarding any violation of such agreements. Such rights to any injunction shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights and remedies Purchaser may have against Seller, Shareholder or Telos, including, but not limited to, the recovery of damages. Further, it is agreed by Seller, Shareholder and Telos that in the event the provisions of this Agreement should ever be deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the geographic limitations permitted by applicable law, then the provisions shall be reformed to the maximum geographic limitations permitted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser recognizes and hereby agrees that any of Telos, Shareholder or Seller engaging in the activities described ON SCHEDULE 13 hereto shall not be deemed to be a violation of the provisions of this Section 13. 14. NONDISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Seller, Shareholder and Telos each recognizes and acknowledges that it has and will have access to certain confidential information of Seller that is included in the Assets (including, but not limited to, list of customers, and costs and financial information) that after the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will be valuable, special and unique property of Purchaser. Seller, Shareholder and Telos each agree that it will not disclose, and it will use its best efforts to prevent disclosure by any other Person of, any such confidential information to any Person, except to authorized representatives of Purchaser. Seller, Shareholder and Telos each recognize and agree that the violation of any of the agreements contained in this Section 14 will cause irreparable damage or injury to Purchaser, the exact amount of which may be impossible to ascertain, and that, for such reason, among others, Purchaser shall be entitled to an injunction, without the necessity of posting bond, therefore, restraining any violation of such agreements. Such rights to any injunction shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights and remedies Purchaser may have against Seller, Shareholder or Telos. 15. ASSIGNMENT OF CONTRACTS. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any document entered into in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be construed as an attempt to assign (i) any contract which, as a matter of law or by its terms, is non-assignable without the consent of the other parties thereto unless such consent has been given, or (ii) any contract or claims as to which all of the remedies for the enforcement thereof enjoyed by Seller would not, as a matter of law or by its terms, pass to Purchaser as an incident of the transfers and assignments to be made under this Agreement. In order, however, that the full value of every contract and claim of the character described in clauses (i) and (ii) above and all claims and demands on such contracts may be realized for the benefit of Purchaser, Seller, at its expense and at the request and under the direction of Purchaser, shall take all such action and do or cause to be done all such things as will, in the opinion of Purchaser, be necessary or proper in order that the obligations of Seller under such contracts may be performed in such manner that the value of such contract will be preserved and will inure to the benefit of Purchaser, and for, and to facilitate, the collection of the monies due and payable and to become due and payable thereunder to Purchaser in and under every such contract and claim incurred after the Closing. Seller shall promptly pay over to Purchaser all monies collected by or paid to it in respect of every such contract, claim or demand to the extent such monies are earned or accrued by Purchaser on or after the Closing Date. Nothing in this Section 15 shall relieve Seller, Shareholder or Telos of their obligation to obtain, as soon as is practicable, any and all consents required for the transfer of the Assets and all rights thereunder to Purchaser, or shall relieve Seller, Shareholder or Telos from any liability to Purchaser for failure to obtain such consents. 16. SPECIAL PROVISIONS REGARDING EMPLOYEES OF SELLER. 16.1 NEW EMPLOYEES OF PURCHASER. It is the intention of Purchaser, and Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees with such position, that any Business Employees that Purchaser hires will be new employees of Purchaser as of the Closing Date or the date of hire, whichever is later. Such new employees shall be entitled only to such compensation and employee benefits as are agreed to by such employees and Purchaser, or as are otherwise provided by Purchaser, in its sole discretion. 16.2 HIRING OF EMPLOYEES. (a) Purchaser will use its reasonable efforts to hire the current Business Employees (other than temporary employees) as listed on schedule 16.2(a); provided, however, that purchaser shall be entitled to review employee records, conduct employee interviews and perform such employee screening procedures as Purchaser deems appropriate, and may refuse to offer employment to any Business Employee for any reason. (B) AS A CONDITION TO THEIR EMPLOYMENT BY PURCHASER, ALL BUSINESS EMPLOYEES LISTED IN SCHEDULE 16.2(B) may be asked to execute and deliver to Purchaser an Employment Agreement, a confidentiality agreement, and a non-competition agreement, each in form and substance acceptable to Purchaser 16.3 EXISTING EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS. (a) Purchaser shall have no obligation to continue any employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements currently offered by Seller, Shareholder or Telos to any of Seller's, Shareholder's or Telos' employees. Telos agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any claim which may arise because of the failure to continue any such plans, programs or arrangements. (b) Notwithstanding (a), above, it is Purchaser's present intention that, within a reasonable period after the Closing Date, it shall provide to the Business Employees hired by it employee benefits that are substantially similar in the aggregate to the employee benefits provided to such Business Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date. 16.4 INDEMNITY CONCERNING ACCRUED BENEFITS. Except as expressly assumed by Purchaser hereunder and as reflected in the Statement of Net Assets of Seller, each of Seller, Shareholder and Telos jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any and all accrued and outstanding employee benefits, salary, vacation pay, bonuses, commissions and other emoluments of its past or present employees and from any other employee related matters or liabilities with respect to Seller's, Shareholder's or Telos' past or present employees. 17.

Exhibit 10.92 December 30, 1999 MR. DOUGLAS T. BROWN Vice President Bank of America 8300 Greensboro Drive, Suite 550 McLean, VA 22102-3604 Dear Douglas: This letter is to formalize the agreements between Bank of America, N.A. ("Bank of America"), Telos Corporation, a Maryland corporation ("Telos (Maryland)"), Telos Corporation, a California corporation ("Telos (California)" and, together with Telos (Maryland), sometimes referred to collectively as "Telos"), and Enterworks, Inc., a Delaware corporation, formerly known as "enterWorks.com, inc." ("Enterworks"), with respect to the private placement (the "Private Placement") of approximately $25,000,000 of Series A Preferred Stock of Enterworks at $1.15 per share and certain other related transactions which were outlined in a conversation between Bank of America and Telos (California) which resulted in a signed letter agreement between Bank of America, Telos (California) and Enterworks dated October 6, 1999. The details of these transactions have now been finalized and amended to the extent necessary to permit more specific Bank of America approval. AS STATED IN OUR OCTOBER 6TH letter, Enterworks has agreed to exchange approximately $2.7 million in subordinated notes issued by Enterworks for shares of Enterworks common stock, par value $.01 per share, to be issued by Enterworks to the note holders, and Telos will likewise exchange approximately $7.6 million in subordinated notes issued by Telos in exchange for Enterworks common stock held of record by Telos (California). The conversions of the subordinated notes will be effected at a rate of $1.00 of principal amount per share. As you are aware, all 27,000,000 shares of Enterworks common stock currently owned of record by Telos (California) have been pledged to Bank of America (the "Pledged Shares") pursuant to the Telos Pledge Agreement dated as of April 16, 1999 (the "Pledge Agreement") by and among Bank of America, Telos (Maryland) and Telos (California), and Telos (California) will require a release of 10,000,000 of the Pledged Shares from Bank of America as described below. Additionally, Enterworks has agreed to issue 4,000,000 additional shares to Telos (California) and Telos (California) has agreed to contribute 1,000,000 Pledged Shares to Enterworks for distribution under the Enterworks 1996 Stock Option Plan. In order to permit the Private Placement and as part of a general restructuring of the Enterworks balance sheet, Telos and Enterworks have also agreed that Telos will cancel the existing intercompany debt of Enterworks which has accumulated through the first closing in the Private Placement in the approximate amount of $30 million, on advice from Deutsche Banc Alex. Brown, the Private Placement investment banker. In addition to the transactions set forth above and as previously discussed with Bank of America, Enterworks has approved the redemption of $5 million of Enterworks common stock from Telos (California) at a price of $1.00 per share, and Telos (California) has determined that it is in the best interests of Telos (California) to accept the redemption offer. The redemption will occur immediately after the closing of the Private Placement, and Telos (California) will receive all $5 million of the redemption price (less fees payable to Alex.Brown) by wire transfer on the closing date of the Private Placement. On the closing date of the Private Placement, the above referenced $5 million (less fees payable to Alex.Brown) of funds received by Telos (California) as a result of the redemption shall be used to pay down the debt owed to Bank of America under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and among Telos (Maryland), Telos (California) and Bank of America dated July 1, 1997, as amended (the "Credit Agreement"). Also as previously discussed, Enterworks is seeking Bank of America's approval to create and issue up to 21,739,130 shares of Series A Preferred Stock of Enterworks at $1.15 per share in connection with the Private Placement to various Private Placement Investors (the "Private Placement Investors"), and to execute, deliver and perform the Stock Purchase Agreement, Investor Rights Agreement, Co-Sale Agreement, Stockholders' Voting Agreement and the Enterworks charter amendments contemplated as part of the Private Placement (the "Operative Agreements"), all dated on or prior to the date hereof. Please indicate by signing below that Bank of America approves of and consents to each of the share issues and transactions described above and the execution, delivery and performance by Telos and Enterworks in accordance with the Operative Agreements (collectively, the "Transactions"), and hereby waives the violations, defaults and events of default under or arising by or through Sections 7.3, 7.6, 7.10, 7.12 and 9.1(q) of the Credit Agreement and Section 8 of the Pledge Agreement, and any other relevant provisions of the Credit Agreement and the Pledge Agreement which may result as a consequence of the Transactions. Within 10 days after the first closing in the Private Placement, Bank of America agrees to release 10,000,000 of the Pledged Shares (within the meaning of the Pledge Agreement) and deliver the share certificate representing the 27,000,000 Pledged Shares to Telos (California) for cancellation. Concurrently with such delivery by Bank of America, Enterworks will issue a new share certificate evidencing 17,000,000 of the remaining Pledged Shares, which shall continue to be subject to the Pledge Agreement, and Telos (California) shall concurrently deliver such certificate to Bank of America in exchange for the share certificate representing the 27,000,000 Pledged Shares. Each of the signatories to this letter agrees to promptly take whatever actions are necessary to amend the Pledge Agreement to evidence the change in Pledged Shares. In the event Telos (California) is issued more than 17,000,000 shares of Enterworks common stock, such higher number shall be pledged to Bank of America. In the event Bank of America exercises its rights under the Credit Agreement or Pledge Agreement (or any successor arrangement) to sell or otherwise dispose of any of the remaining 17,000,000 (or greater) Pledged Shares on one or more occasions, Bank of America agrees, prior to any public or private sale or other disposition of such Pledged Shares to any person or entity other than Enterworks or the Private Placement Investors (each such sale or proposed sale being referred to as a "Third Party Sale"), to first offer such Pledged Shares to Enterworks, which offer shall remain open for a period of 10 calendar days. Any Pledged Shares not agreed to be purchased by Enterworks within such 10 calendar day period shall then be offered to the Private Placement Investors, which offer shall remain open to the Private Placement Investors for a period of 35 calendar days. In the event Enterworks and/or the Private Placement Investors have not elected to purchase all of such remaining Pledged Shares within such respective periods of time, the Pledged Shares may thereafter be sold to the original prospective purchaser in a Third Party Sale, but only on the terms and conditions on which such Pledged Shares were offered to Enterworks and the Private Placement Investors. The Pledged Shares may be offered in a subsequent Third Party Sale on terms and conditions different from the terms and conditions originally offered to Enterworks and Private Placement Investors only if such Pledged Shares have first been offered to Enterworks and the Private Placement Investors on such new terms and conditions in accordance with this paragraph. Bank of America hereby grants the same co-sale rights to each of the Private Placement Investors in respect of the Pledged Shares as are granted to the Private Placement Investors in the Co-Sale Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto; provided, however, that such co-sale rights shall not become an obligation of any subsequent purchaser of the Pledged Shares from Bank of America. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, Pledge Agreement or any other agreement or document relating thereto, Bank of America agrees with Telos and Enterworks that, at any time when the voting and other consensual rights described in Section 7(d) of the Pledge Agreement would, by the terms of Pledge Agreement, become vested in Bank of America, then (a) Telos shall retain, and there shall not vest in Bank of America (i) the right to designate a member of the Enterworks board of directors or an observer thereto as provided in Section 1 of the Stockholders' Voting Agreement; and (ii) the right to approve any amendment, modification, termination of, or waiver under, any provision of any Operative Agreement to which Telos is a party; and (b) Telos shall retain, and Bank of America shall permit Telos to keep and observe, the obligation to vote its shares of Enterworks capital stock as provided in Section 1 of the Stockholders' Voting Agreement. Bank of America agrees and acknowledges that the Private Placement Investors are third party beneficiaries with respect to the rights granted in the three previous paragraphs (but no other terms of this letter agreement). The co-sale rights, rights of first refusal and other rights granted by Bank of America in the foregoing three paragraphs shall terminate upon the date of termination of the Co-Sale Agreement referenced above as in effect on the date hereof. Bank of America agrees and acknowledges that Enterworks is hereby forever released from any and all obligations arising out of or in connection with the Credit Agreement, Security Agreement and Pledge Agreement upon consummation of the Private Placement. In consideration of Bank of America providing the foregoing consents, approvals and waivers, Telos (Maryland) has agreed to pay Bank of America $450,000 in cash in two equal installments on October 6, 1999 and December 31, 1999 and Enterworks has agreed to issue 350,000 Enterworks common stock purchase warrants in the event the Private Placement closes by December 31, 1999 or 400,000 Enterworks common stock purchase warrants if the Private Placement closes after December 31, 1999 (the "Warrants"). The Warrants will have the same rights and privileges set forth in the Warrant Agreement received by Alex.Brown as Placement Agent in connection with the Private Placement, except that (i) the number of underlying shares will be in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and (ii) the Warrant Agreement will include the language set forth in Riders 5 and 6 attached hereto, without duplication. Bank of America acknowledges having received the first installment of $225,000 on or prior to October 6, 1999. If the foregoing is acceptable to Bank of America, please sign as indicated below. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. _________ TELOS CORPORATION, a Maryland corporation _________ By:/s/ William L.P. Brownley _________ Name: William L.P.

Exhibit 10.93 Enterworks, Inc. (the "Company") would like to provide you and certain other investors with the opportunity to convert the subordinated Notes purchased from the Company (each a "Note" and collectively the "Notes") into shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock") in accordance with the terms of this letter agreement. By signing and returning this letter agreement and tendering your Note(s) to the Company, you will become entitled to receive, in exchange for the outstanding principal amount and all accrued but unpaid interest under the tendered Note(s) through the conversion date (the "Conversion Date"), that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Note(s) you tender. For example, if the outstanding principal amount under your Note(s) is $100 and accrued but unpaid interest thereon is $5 as of the Conversion Date, you will be entitled to receive 100 shares of Common Stock upon conversion and cancellation of such Note(s) on the Conversion Date. On the date of the first closing in the currently proposed private placement (the "Private Placement"), the Company will issue you one or more Common Stock share certificates evidencing the number of shares to which you are entitled. You are the holder of a Note(s) in the amount of (dollars) dollars, therefore your Note(s) would be converted into (shares) shares of Common Stock. The Common Stock to be issued to you in exchange for your Note(s) will have and be subject to the same rights, preferences, limitations and restrictions under the Articles of Incorporation of Enterworks as the Common Stock of Enterworks into which the convertible preferred stock proposed to be issued in connection with the Private Placement will be convertible. Whether you elect to convert your Note(s) into shares of Common Stock or not, your rights under the Warrants you purchased along with the Note(s) will not be affected by this letter agreement, except that holders of equity securities of the Company (including you, as a holder of Warrants) may be diluted by additional issuances of capital stock of the Company including, but not limited to, issuances of Common Stock in the event holders of Note(s) elect to convert their Note(s) into Common Stock. The Company will provide you with a schedule of shareholders as soon as practical following the closing of the Private Placement. Further, the Company hereby informs you that there are no securities with the Company with anti-dilution rights other than the Warrants attached to the Note(s) referenced above. Additionally, on or prior to the first closing in connection with the Private Placement, you, the Company and the other Note holders electing to exchange Notes hereunder will enter into a written shareholders' agreement which will provide for one demand registration right and standard co-sale rights as set forth below. The one (1) demand registration right may be exercised by written consent of not less than 51% of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued to all Note holders exchanging their notes hereunder, including you, and will be subject to reasonable and customary blackout periods and to cutback of shares based on market conditions. In the event of such a cutback, any Common Stock requested to be registered by you and other Note holders will be reduced before reducing any securities of the investors in the Private Placement (the "Private Placement Investors") or the Company requested to be included in such registration; provided, however that in the event the total number of shares of Common Stock you and the other Note holders properly request for inclusion is reduced pursuant to such cutback to less than 40% of the total number of shares you and such Note holders properly requested to be included in such registration, then such registration shall not count toward the one demand registration granted by the shareholders' agreement. The Private Placement Investors shall receive notice of such demand registration and shall have the right to piggyback registration rights in connection with such demand registration. You will also receive co-sale rights equivalent to the co-sale rights granted to Telos in the shareholders' agreement between Telos and certain other Company shareholders. If you wish to have your Note(s) converted into shares of Common Stock, please countersign this letter in the signature block provided, request a Conversion Date on or after October 1, 1999, provide all other information requested below and return this letter agreement to me along with your original Note(s) at your earliest convenience, but not later than September 27, 1999. If you do not request a Conversion Date after October 1, 1999, or request a Conversion Date that occurs after the date of the first closing in connection with the Private Placement, you agree that your Note(s) will be exchanged on the date of the first closing to occur in connection with the Private Placement. If you do not wish to convert your Note(s), the courtesy of a response is nonetheless appreciated. By signing below, you (i) agree and acknowledge that the shares of Common Stock you receive will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or applicable state securities laws, are aware that you cannot sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of such shares unless they are registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an opinion is given by counsel satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required, and agree that the certificates evidencing the shares will contain a legend to the foregoing effect, (ii) represent that you have substantial knowledge and experience in making investment decisions of this type and are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this exchange, and (iii) have been offered an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from Enterworks' management to your complete satisfaction. The Company cannot assure you that the Company will receive any funds in connection with the Private Placement, and therefore the Company must, and does, retain the right to terminate this agreement to exchange your Note(s) at any time by written notice to you for any reason, in which case the Company will tender your Note(s) back to you as soon as practicable thereafter. Furthermore, the Company will terminate this agreement (and tender your Note(s) back to you) if an amount of funds equal to or greater than $15 million is not raised in the above referenced Private Placement. In any event, the Company will tender your Note(s) back within 90 days of the date of this letter agreement in the event the Conversion Date does not occur prior to such time. Please let us know your decision at your earliest convenience. I appreciate your attention to this matter. Very truly yours, Dee Ann Revere Vice President & General CounselBy signing below, I agree that my Note(s) may be converted into shares of Common Stock on the date of the first closing in connection with the Private Placement, or on ___________________ (insert Conversion Date) as set forth in this letter agreement and that in such event the Note(s) attached hereto will be cancelled by the Company on the Conversion Date.
