TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) Note 1. General The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Telos Corporation ("Telos") (formerly C3, Inc.) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Telos Corporation (California), Telos Field Engineering, Inc., and Telos International (collectively, the "Company") have been prepared without audit. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented consistent with past practices. However, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10- K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of fiscal year performance because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations. Included in Systems and Services sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 are Product Sales of $46.1 million. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year's financial statements to conform to the classifications used in the current period. Note 2. Accounts Receivable The components of accounts receivable are as follows (in thousands): September 30, 1995 December 31, 1994 Billed accounts receivable $28,597 $32,483 Unbilled accounts receivable 9,790 9,149 38,387 41,632 Allowance for doubtful accounts (665) (1,287) $37,722 $40,345

TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) Note 3. Debt Obligations Senior Credit Facility On April 17, 1995, the Company refinanced its senior credit facility ("Facility") with its existing lender. The new Facility remains a $45 million commitment with a maturity date of July 1, 1996. Other terms and conditions of the Facility are similar to the Company's previous Facility except that certain financial and non financial covenants have been amended. As the maturity date of the Facility is less than one year, at September 30, 1995 the Company has classified the Facility as a current liability. See Note 5. Subsequent Events, below. Senior Subordinated Note, Series A At September 30, 1995, the Company had $675,000 of the senior subordinated notes, Series A, outstanding with Mr. John R.C. Porter ("Porter"), the Company's majority common shareholder. The Company was not in compliance with the financial maintenance covenants of the senior subordinated notes, Series A as of September 30, 1995. Porter has agreed to waive such non compliance. Senior Subordinated Notes, Series B On June 8, 1995 the Company paid Union de Banques Suisses (Luxembourg) S. A. ("UBS") $5.8 million in outstanding principal, $500,000 of accrued interest and $200,000 of legal and other fees to retire the outstanding Series B-1 and B-2 notes and settle the related claims of UBS. The funds to pay UBS were loaned to the Company by certain of the Company's common shareholders. In replacement of the notes held by UBS, the lenders were issued Senior Subordinated Bridge Notes aggregating approximately $6.5 million. The notes have a maturity date of October 1, 1996 and have interest rates ranging from 14% to 17%. See Note 5. Subsequent Events, below.

TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) Note 4. Preferred Stock Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock The components of the senior redeemable preferred stock are Series A-1 and Series A-2 redeemable preferred stock each with $.01 par value and 1,250 and 1,750 shares authorized, issued and outstanding, respectively. From July 1, 1995 through June 30, 1997, the Series A-1 and A-2 each carry a cumulative dividend rate equal to 11.125% per annum of its liquidation value, and increases to 14.125% per annum thereafter. 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 Series A-1 and A-2 Preferred Stock is senior to all other present and future equity of the Company. The Company is required to redeem all of the outstanding shares of the Series A-1 and A-2 on December 31, 2001, subject to the legal availability of funds. At September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994 undeclared, unpaid dividends relating to Series A-1 and A-2 Preferred Stock were accrued for financial reporting purposes in the amount of $1,410,000 and $1,192,000, respectively. Class B Redeemable Preferred Stock The Class B Redeemable Preferred Stock has a $.01 par value, with 7,500 shares authorized, issued and outstanding. The Class B Redeemable Preferred Stock has a cumulative dividend payable semi-annually at June 30 and December 31. From July 1, 1995 through June 30, 1997, the dividend is calculated at a rate equal to 11.125% per annum of its liquidation value, and increases to 14.125% per annum thereafter. The Class B Redeemable Preferred Stock may be redeemed at its liquidation value together with all accrued and unpaid dividends at any time at the option of the Company. The liquidation preference of the preferred stock is the face amount, $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. At September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994 undeclared, unpaid dividends relating to the Class B Redeemable Preferred Stock were accrued for financial reporting purposes in the amount of $2,542,000 and $1,997,000 respectively. 12% Cumulative Exchangeable Redeemable Preferred Stock A maximum of 6,000,000 shares of 12% Cumulative Exchangeable Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, have been authorized for issuance. The Company has issued 3,595,586 shares of 12% Cumulative Exchangeable Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock"). The Preferred Stock accrues a semi-annual dividend at the annual rate of 12% ($1.20) per share, based on the liquidation preference of $10 per share and is fully cumulative.

TELOS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) Through November 21, 1995, the Company has the option to pay dividends in additional shares of Preferred Stock in lieu of cash. Dividends are payable by the Company, provided the Company has legally available funds under Maryland law and is able to pay dividends under its charter, when and if declared by the Board of Directors, commencing June 1, 1990, and on each six month anniversary thereof. Dividends in additional shares of the Preferred Stock are paid at the rate of 0.06 of a share for each $.60 of such dividends not paid in cash. No dividends were declared or paid during fiscal years 1994, 1993 and 1992. Cumulative undeclared dividends as of December 31, 1994 have been accrued for financial reporting purposes in the amount of $2,871,000, under the assumption that such dividends will be paid in additional shares of stock valued at an average market value. The Company has accrued these dividends for the periods although the Company is uncertain when or if these dividends will be declared or paid. Had the Company accrued cash dividends on the outstanding shares of stock such an accrual would approximate $12.9 million. Note 5. Subsequent Events On October 13, 1995, the Company issued to certain of its shareholders $14.4 million of Senior Subordinated Notes ("Notes") in exchange for the $6.5 million Senior Subordinated Bridge Notes held by these shareholders, as well as the transfer to the Company of certain shareholders' deposits with the Company's bank. The Notes are classified as either Series B or Series C. Series B Notes, which total $6.5 million and replace the Senior Subordinated Notes - Series B held by UBS, are collateralized by certain assets of the Company. Series C Notes which total $7.9 million are unsecured. Both the Series B and Series C Notes have a maturity date of October 1, 2000 and have interest rates ranging from 14% to 17%. 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 expenses will only be recorded after occurrence of a triggering event. However the interest portion of the notes will be treated as a period expense.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. General In the first nine months of 1995, the Company had higher revenues and operating profit when compared to the first nine months of 1994. The higher revenue and operating profit resulted from improved performance of the Company's system integration division as well as declines in selling, general and administrative expense. Total backlog from existing contracts was $1.3 billion as of September 30, 1995, of which approximately $1 billion represented the maximum value from awarded indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contracts for computer equipment and services. The Company's total backlog at December 31, 1994 was $328 million. The significant increase in the backlog resulted from the award to the Company of the Small Multi-user Computer II (SMC II) contract by the U.S. Army in September 1995. The contract has a maximum potential value of $907 million. Also in September, the Company was awarded two additional system integration contracts, totaling approximately $20 million, with the Defense Supply Service and U.S. House of Representatives. As of September 30, 1995, the funded backlog of the Company totaled $97 million, an increase of $4 million from December 31, 1994. Funded backlog represents 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. Results of Operations The condensed consolidated statements of income include the results of operations of Telos Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries Telos Corporation (California), Telos Field Engineering Inc., and Telos International (collectively, "the Company"). The major elements of the Company's operating expenses as a percentage of sales for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 are as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 1995 1994 1995 1994 Sales 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales 83.7 85.1 83.0 82.6 SG&A expenses 12.1 17.9 12.4 15.4 Goodwill amortization .9 1.9 1.5 1.8 Operating income 3.3 (4.9) 3.1 0.2 Other income 0 0.1 0 0 Interest expense (2.5) (2.4) (2.8) (2.1) Income tax provision 0 1.0 0 0 Extraordinary item 0 (0.5) 0 (0.2) Net income 0.8% (6.7)% 0.3% (2.1)%

Financial Data by Market Segment The Company operates in three market segments: systems and services ( the "Systems and Services Group"), which consists of systems integration and software services; computer hardware maintenance (the "Field Engineering Group"); and consulting services (the "Consulting Services Group"). Sales, gross profit, and gross margin by market segment for the periods designated below are as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 1995 1994 1995 1994 (amounts in thousands) Sales: Systems and Services $41,008 $25,348 $ 99,953 $ 83,891 Field Engineering 8,411 8,771 24,949 26,040 Consulting Services 6,710 6,644 19,790 17,958 Total $56,129 $40,763 $144,692 $127,889 Gross Profit: Systems and Services $7,250 $3,248 $18,326 $14,294 Field Engineering 661 1,441 2,567 4,876 Consulting Services 1,231 1,391 3,658 3,075 Total $9,142 $6,080 $24,551 $22,245 Gross Margin: Systems and Services 17.7% 12.8% 18.3% 17.0% Field Engineering 7.9% 16.4% 10.3% 18.7% Consulting Services 18.4% 20.9% 18.5% 17.1% Total 16.3% 14.9% 17.0% 17.4% For the three month period ended September 30, 1995 sales increased by $15.4 million, or 37.7%, to $56.1 million from $40.8 million for the comparable 1994 period. Sales increased $16.8 million, or 13.1%, from $127.9 million to $144.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to the same 1994 period. These increases for the three and nine month periods are primarily attributable to the Systems and Services Group, which reported increases in sales of $15.7 million and $16.1 million for the three and nine month periods, and to the Consulting Group which reported increased sales of $66,000 and $1.8 million for the three and nine month periods, respectively. These increases were offset by declines in sales in the Field Engineering Group of $360,000 and $1.1 million for the respective three and nine month periods. Within the Systems and Services Group, systems integration sales accounted for the majority of the increase, as sales improved $16.1 million and $19.8 million in the three and nine month periods, respectively, due to increased order volume in the first three quarters of 1995.

Increased orders in systems integration were due to the INS contract, which has provided the Company with increased revenue and enhanced profitability, as well as increased sales in other business lines of the division. Software services sales experienced declines of $400,000 and $3.7 million for the three and nine month periods, respectively. These decreases in sales were due to declines in contract activity on existing contracts as well as certain contracts not being renewed during 1995. The revenue decline in the Field Engineering Group is primarily due to lower warranty revenue resulting from the low 1994 system integration sales as well as delayed starts on certain of the Group's recent contract awards. Cost of sales increased by $12.3 million, or 35.5%, to $47.0 million in the three month period ended September 30, 1995, from $34.7 million in the comparable 1994 period. For the nine months ended September 30, 1995, cost of sales increased $14.5 million, or 13.7%, to $120.1 million from $105.6 million for the same period in 1994. These increases are the result of the increases in sales for both periods. Gross profit increased $3.1 million in the three month period to $9.1 million, from $6.1 million in the comparable 1994 period. For the nine month period, gross profit increased by $2.3 million to $24.5 million from $22.2 million. The increase in both periods is primarily attributable to the higher sales volume previously discussed within the Systems and Services Group and the Consulting Services Group. These increases were offset by declines in gross profit for the Field Engineering Group, attributable primarily to start-up costs associated with recent contract awards. Gross margins were 16.3% and 17.0% for the three and nine month periods of 1995 as compared to 14.9% and 17.4% for the comparable periods of 1994. Selling, general, and administrative expense ("SG&A") decreased for the three month period by approximately $500,000, to $6.8 million in 1995 from $7.3 million in 1994 for the three month period. For the nine month period, SG&A decreased from $19.7 million to $17.9 million, approximately $1.8 million. These decreases were primarily due to reduced expenses associated with product initiatives, lower contract rebid efforts in 1995 as compared to 1994, and reduced expenses in certain administrative cost areas. SG&A as a percentage of sales decreased to 12.1% for the third quarter of 1995 from 17.9% in the comparable 1994 period. SG&A as a percentage of sales for the nine month period ended September 30, 1995 decreased to 12.4% from 15.4% in the comparable 1995 period. The decreases for both periods are due to the higher sales volume and decreased costs. Goodwill amortization expense was $525,000 and $2.1 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 compared to $794,000 and $2.4 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1994. The reduction in goodwill amortization is attributable to the completion of the amortization of the goodwill created by the 1989 leveraged buyout of the Company. The Company continues to amortize its goodwill balance which resulted from the acquisition of Telos Corporation (California).

Operating income increased by $3.8 million to $1.8 million in the three month period from $(2.0) million in the comparable 1994 period and increased $4.4 million to $4.5 million from $125,000 for the nine month period, as a result of the aforementioned increases in sales and gross profit. Other non-operating income was approximately $7,000 in the three month period of 1995 compared to approximately $30,000 of other non-operating income in the comparable 1994 period. For the 1995 nine month period, non-operating income was $16,000 as compared to income of $44,000 for the comparable 1994 period. Interest expense increased approximately $444,000 to $1.4 million in the third quarter of 1995 from $984,000 in the comparable 1994 period. Interest expense for the nine month period ended September 30, 1995 increased $1.4 million to $4.0 million from $2.6 million in the 1994 period. The variance is a result of the increase in the outstanding balance of the senior credit facility and related interest rate, as well as an increase in the outstanding balance of the subordinated debt and related interest rate. The Company did not have an income tax provision for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 as a result of utilization of net operating loss carryforwards. For the comparable periods of 1994, the Company had a tax benefit of $400,000 for the three month period and no tax provision for the nine month period. Liquidity and Capital Resources For the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the Company's operating activities provided $1.9 million of cash to the Company. This was primarily the result of increased net income and the Company's effort to improve receivable collections. This improvement in cash collections also resulted in the $2.0 million reduction of the senior credit facility balance from December 31, 1994 to September 30, 1995. The Company continues to have constraints on its liquidity as it funds its revenue growth and its product and bid and proposal efforts. The Company has an active cash management program designed to monitor and control significant cash commitments as well as to ensure sufficient funds for Company operations and growth.

Recent contract awards will ultimately require the Company to expand its financial capability. The short term financing requirement from these contract awards can be met with its current facility. The Company expects to address the requirements of longer term financing and a larger credit facility in 1996. At September 30, 1995, the Company had outstanding debt of $39.1 million, consisting of $32.0 million under the secured senior credit facility ("Facility") and $7.1 million in subordinated debt. The Facility was refinanced on April 17, 1995 and has a maturity date of July 1, 1996. While the Company has classified the Facility as a current liability as of September 30, 1995 due to the maturity date, the Company believes that the Facility will be extended once such discussions with its lender have been completed. Subsequent Events On October 13, 1995, the Company issued to certain of its shareholders $14.4 million of Senior Subordinated Notes ("Notes") in exchange for the $6.5 million Senior Subordinated Bridge Notes held by these shareholders, as well as the transfer to the Company of certain shareholders' deposits with the Company's bank. The Notes are classified as either Series B or Series C. Series B Notes, which total $6.5 million and replace the Senior Subordinated Notes - Series B held by UBS, are collateralized by certain assets of the Company. Series C Notes which total $7.9 million are unsecured. Both the Series B and Series C Notes have a maturity date of October 1, 2000 and have interest rates ranging from 14% to 17%. 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 expenses will only be recorded after occurrence of a triggering event. However the interest portion of the notes will be treated as a period expense.
