AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”), dated as of December 21, 2007, by and among BAE Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Mira Acquisition Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and MTC Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company each have approved, and in the case of the Company and Merger Sub deem it advisable and in the best interests of their respective stockholders to consummate, the acquisition of the Company by Parent by means of a merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, whereby each issued and outstanding share of the Company’s Common Stock (such issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock, collectively, the “Shares”), other than Dissenting Shares, Shares owned by Parent or any wholly-owned Subsidiaries of Parent or the Company, and any shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company, will be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration; and

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, and as a condition to the willingness of Parent and Merger Sub to enter into this Agreement, Xxxxxx X. Xxxx and a stockholder affiliated with him are entering into an agreement with Parent in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, pursuant to which Xxxxxx X. Xxxx and such stockholder shall agree to take certain actions to support the Transactions (the “Stockholder Voting Agreement”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

Section 1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease, and the Company will continue as the surviving corporation. The Company as the surviving corporation after the Merger is referred to in this Agreement as the “Surviving Corporation.”

Section 1.2 Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at 10:00 a.m. on the second Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions (other than any condition that by its nature cannot be satisfied until the Closing, but subject to satisfaction of any such condition) set forth in Article VII (the “Closing Date”), at the offices of Xxxxx Day, North Point, 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxx 00000, unless another date or place is agreed to in writing by the parties to this Agreement.

Section 1.3 Effective Time. The parties to this Agreement shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) on the Closing Date (or on such other date as Parent and the Company may agree) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, in such form as required by, and executed in accordance with, the relevant provisions of the DGCL (the date and time of the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or such later time as is specified in the Certificate of Merger and as is agreed to by Parent and the Company, being the “Effective Time”).

Section 1.4 Effect of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers, franchises and authority of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 1.5 Certificate of Incorporation; Bylaws.

(a) At the Effective Time, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company shall be amended so as to read in its entirety in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, and, as so amended, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with its terms and applicable Law.

(b) At the Effective Time, the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company shall be amended so as to read in their entirety in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, and, as so amended shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with their terms, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation and applicable Law.

Section 1.6 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation. The directors of Merger Sub immediately before the Effective Time will be the initial directors of the Surviving Corporation and the officers of Merger Sub immediately before the Effective Time will be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation, in each case until their successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

ARTICLE II

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK

Section 2.1 Conversion of Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of Shares or securities of Parent or Merger Sub:

(a) Each Share issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time (other than any Shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.1(b) and any Dissenting Shares) will be cancelled and extinguished and be converted into the right to receive $24.00 in cash payable to the holder of such Share, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), upon surrender of the certificate formerly representing such Share (a “Certificate”) in the manner provided in Section 2.2. All such Shares, when so converted, will no longer be outstanding and will be automatically

-2-

cancelled, retired and cease to exist. Each holder of a Certificate representing any such Shares will cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration for such Shares upon the surrender of such Certificate in accordance with Section 2.2, without interest.

(b) Each Share held in the treasury of the Company and each Share owned by Parent or any direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent or the Company immediately before the Effective Time will be cancelled and extinguished, and no payment or other consideration will be made with respect to such Shares.

(c) Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time will thereafter represent one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 2.2 Payment; Surrender of Shares; Stock Transfer Books.

(a) Before the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall designate a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as agent for the holders of Shares in connection with the Merger (the “Paying Agent”) to receive the funds necessary to make the payments contemplated by Section 2.1(a). At the Effective Time, Parent or Merger Sub shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in trust with the Paying Agent in a separate account for the benefit of holders of Shares (the “Payment Fund”) the aggregate Merger Consideration to which such holders shall be entitled at the Effective Time pursuant to Section 2.1(a). If for any reason the cash in the Payment Fund shall be insufficient to fully satisfy all of the payment obligations to be made in cash by the Paying Agent hereunder, Parent shall promptly deposit cash into the Payment Fund in an amount which is equal to the deficiency in the amount of cash required to fully satisfy such cash payment obligations.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time and in any event not later than five Business Days following the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate or Certificates whose shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) (i) a letter of transmittal (which must specify that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates will pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent and will be in such form and have such other provisions as the Company and Merger Sub may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in surrendering Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Each holder of a Certificate or Certificates may thereafter until the first anniversary of the Effective Time surrender such Certificate or Certificates to the Paying Agent under cover of the letter of transmittal, as agent for such holder. Upon delivery of a valid letter of transmittal and the surrender of Certificates on or before the first anniversary of the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall cause the Paying Agent to pay the holder of such Certificates, in exchange for the Certificates, cash in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of Shares represented by such Certificate, without interest. Until so surrendered, each Certificate (other than Certificates representing Dissenting Shares, Shares held by Parent or any direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent or the Company, and Shares held in the treasury of the Company) will represent solely the right to receive the aggregate Merger Consideration relating to the Shares represented by such Certificates.

-3-

(c) If payment of the Merger Consideration in respect of cancelled Shares is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name a surrendered Certificate is registered, it will be a condition to such payment that the Certificate so surrendered will be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other Taxes required by reason of such payment in a name other than that of the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered or shall have established to the satisfaction of Merger Sub that such Tax either has been paid or is not applicable. The Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates in accordance with the terms of this Article II will be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Shares theretofore represented by such Certificates.

(d) At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company will be closed and there will not be any further registration of transfers of any shares of the Company’s capital stock thereafter on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates will cease to have any rights with respect to any Shares, except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement or by applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates (other than Certificates representing Dissenting Shares, Shares held by Parent or any direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent or the Company, and Shares held in the treasury of the Company) are presented to the Surviving Corporation, they will be cancelled and exchanged for Merger Consideration as provided in this Article II. No interest will accrue or be paid on any cash payable upon the surrender of a Certificate or Certificates which immediately before the Effective Time represented the Shares.

(e) Promptly following the date which is one year after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to it any cash, including any interest received with respect to such cash, and, for the avoidance of doubt, any Certificates or other documents, in its possession relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Transactions”), which had been made available to the Paying Agent and which have not been disbursed to holders of Certificates or previously delivered to the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, and thereafter such holders will be entitled to look to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws) only as general creditors of the Surviving Corporation with respect to the Merger Consideration payable upon due surrender of their Certificates, without any interest on such Merger Consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent will be liable to any holder of a Certificate for Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(f) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable under this Agreement to any holder of Shares, and from amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.3, such amounts as are required to be withheld or deducted under the Code, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of U.S. state, local or foreign Tax Law with respect to the making of such payment. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or deducted and paid over to the applicable Governmental Entity by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, such withheld or deducted amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Shares or Options or RSUs in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made.

-4-

Section 2.3 Treatment of Stock Plans.

(a) At the Effective Time, each then-outstanding option (the “Options”) to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock under a Stock Plan not previously exercised, whether or not then vested and exercisable, will be converted into the right to receive, in settlement thereof, a cash payment equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of the per Share Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of Common Stock subject to such Option and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Option; provided that any Option for which the per share exercise price exceeds the per Share Merger Consideration shall be canceled without any payment in respect thereof.

(b) At the Effective Time, each holder of a restricted stock unit (a “RSU”) under a Stock Plan will be entitled to receive, in settlement thereof, for each share of the Company’s Common Stock subject to such RSU, a cash payment equal to the Merger Consideration.

(c) All amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be subject to Section 2.2(f) and shall be paid without interest.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall obtain any necessary consents or releases, if any, from the holders of Options and RSUs under the Stock Plans and take all such other lawful action as may be necessary (which include satisfying the requirements of Rule 16b-3(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, and including adopting any necessary actions or resolutions of the Company Board or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Stock Plans) to provide for and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.3. Except as otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties, (i) the Stock Plans will terminate as of the Effective Time and (ii) the Company shall assure that following the Effective Time, no participant in any Stock Plan shall have any right under any such Stock Plan to acquire the capital stock of the Company or the Surviving Corporation.

(e) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cause the Transactions, and any other dispositions of equity interests of the Company (including derivative securities) in connection with this Agreement by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act to be approved by the Company Board or a committee of two or more non-employee directors of the Company (as such term is defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act). Such approval shall specify: (A) the name of each officer or director, (B) the number of securities to be disposed of for each named person, and (C) that the approval is granted for purposes of exempting the transaction under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 2.4 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by holders who have not voted in favor of or consented to the Merger and who are otherwise entitled to demand and have properly demanded and perfected their rights to be paid the fair value of such Shares in accordance with, and who comply in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and the holders thereof shall be entitled to only such rights as

-5-

are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL; provided, however, that if any such stockholder of the Company shall fail to perfect or shall effectively waive, withdraw or lose such stockholder’s rights under Section 262 of the DGCL, such stockholder’s Shares in respect of which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled to receive fair value under Section 262 of the DGCL shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted, at the Effective Time, into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.1(a), without any interest thereon, upon surrender of the Certificate or Certificates representing such Shares pursuant to Section 2.2.

(b) The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any notice received by the Company of the intent of any holder of Shares to demand appraisal of any Shares, any written demand for appraisal, any withdrawals thereof and any instruments served pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL and received by the Company and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to the exercise of dissenters’ rights under Section 262 of the DGCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent or as otherwise required by an Order, make any payment with respect to any such exercise of dissenters’ rights or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

Section 2.5 Subsequent Actions. If, at any time after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall consider or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, assignments, assurances or any other actions or things are necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation, its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, properties or assets of either of the Company or Merger Sub vested in or to be vested in the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger or otherwise to carry out this Agreement, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either the Company or Merger Sub, all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of each of such corporations or otherwise, all such other actions and things as may be necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm any and all right, title and interest in, to and under such rights, properties or assets in the Surviving Corporation or otherwise to carry out this Agreement.

Section 2.6 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will pay, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the Shares represented by such Certificate, as contemplated by this Article II.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

Except as set forth in the letter from the Company, dated the date hereof, addressed to Parent and Merger Sub (the “Company Disclosure Letter”) (with specific reference to the Section or subsection of this Agreement to which the information stated in such letter relates; provided, however, that information set forth in one Section of the Company Disclosure

-6-

Letter shall be deemed to apply to each other Section or subsection to which its relevance is readily apparent on its face) or in the Company SEC Documents filed and publicly available prior to the date of this Agreement (to the extent the qualifying nature of such disclosure is readily apparent on its face, but excluding any disclosure in such Company SEC Documents set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” or the heading “Forward Looking Statements” or any other disclosures of risks generally faced by participants in the industry in which the Company operates and descriptions of general risks not related to specifically disclosed facts or circumstances), the Company represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub as follows:

Section 3.1 Organization.

(a) Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership or other entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization and has all requisite corporate or other power and authority and all necessary governmental approvals to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted, except where the failure (i) other than in the case of the Company, to be so organized, existing and in good standing or (ii) to have such power, authority and governmental approvals, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the property owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except where the failure to be so duly qualified or licensed and in good standing has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. The Company does not own any equity interests in any corporation or other entity, except for its Subsidiaries.

Section 3.2 Authorization; Validity of Agreement; Company Action.

(a) The Company has full corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement, and the consummation by it of the Transactions, have been duly and validly authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Company Board”), and no other corporate action on the part of the Company is necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation by it of the Transactions, except that the consummation of the Merger requires the Stockholder Approval. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming due and valid authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent and Merger Sub, is a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except that (i) such enforcement may be subject to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other similar Laws, now or hereafter in effect, affecting creditors’ rights generally and (ii) the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.

(b) Assuming the accuracy of the representation and warranty in Section 4.4, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares to adopt this

-7-

Agreement (the “Stockholder Approval”) is the only vote or consent of the holders of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock, or any of them, that is necessary in connection with the consummation of the Merger and the other Transactions.

(c) At a meeting duly called and held, the Company Board adopted resolutions, which resolutions have not been subsequently rescinded, modified or withdrawn in any way, in which it (i) determined that this Agreement and the Transactions are fair to and in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders and declared this Agreement advisable, (ii) approved this Agreement and the Transactions, (iii) directed that the adoption of this Agreement be submitted to a vote at a meeting of the Company’s stockholders and (iv) resolved (subject to Section 5.2) to recommend to the Company’s stockholders that they adopt this Agreement (such recommendation, the “Company Recommendation”).

Section 3.3 Consents and Approvals; No Violations. Except, in the case of clause (b) below, for filings, permits, authorizations, consents and approvals as may be required under, and other applicable requirements of, the Exchange Act, the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), Section 721 of the Defense Production Act, as amended (or any successor or replacement thereof, and including the rules and regulations thereunder, “Exon-Xxxxxx”), the filing with the SEC of the Proxy Statement and the making of such other filings as may be required under the Exchange Act or by the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market in connection with this Agreement, and the filing of the Certificate of Merger, none of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Company, the consummation by the Company of the Transactions or compliance by the Company with any of the provisions of this Agreement will (a) conflict with or result in any breach of any provision of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company or similar organizational documents of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, (b) require any filing with, or any permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any court, arbitral tribunal, administrative agency or commission or other governmental or regulatory authority or agency (whether domestic, foreign or supranational) (a “Governmental Entity”), (c) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, or give rise to a right of, or result in, termination, amendment, cancelation or acceleration of any obligation or to loss of a material benefit under, or result in the creation of any Encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease, license, contract, Company Permit or other permit, concession, franchise, agreement or other instrument or obligation, whether written or oral, to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them or any of their properties or assets may be bound or (d) violate any Order or Law applicable to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their properties or assets, except in the case of clauses (b), (c) or (d) where failure to obtain such permits, authorizations, consents or approvals or to make such filings, or where such violations, breaches or defaults that would not have, or that would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.4 Capitalization.

(a) The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), and 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). As of the date of this

-8-

Agreement, (i) no shares of Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding, (ii) 15,147,906 shares of Common Stock are issued and outstanding, (iii) 694,570 shares of Common Stock are issued and held in the treasury of the Company, (iv) 852,509 shares of Common Stock are reserved for issuance under the Stock Plans in respect of outstanding and future awards, (v) with respect to all outstanding Options, 372,910 shares of Common Stock are issuable upon the exercise of such Options and (vi) 91,133 shares of Common Stock are issuable upon the vesting of outstanding RSUs. Section 3.4(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter discloses, as of the date of this Agreement, the number of shares subject to each outstanding Option and the exercise price of each Option and the number of shares subject to each outstanding RSU. All the outstanding shares of Common Stock are, and all shares of Common Stock which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of outstanding Options or the vesting of outstanding RSUs will be, when issued in accordance with the terms of the Options or the RSUs, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Except as set forth in this Section 3.4(a) and for changes resulting from the exercise of the Options outstanding as of the date hereof, there are no (v) shares of capital stock or other equity interests or voting securities of the Company and its Subsidiaries authorized, issued or outstanding, (w) existing options, warrants, calls, preemptive rights, subscription or other rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character, obligating the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to issue, transfer or sell or cause to be issued, transferred or sold any shares of capital stock or other equity interest or voting security in the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or securities convertible into or exchangeable for such shares of capital stock or other equity interests or voting securities, or obligating the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to grant, extend or enter into any such option, warrant, call, preemptive right, subscription or other right, agreement, arrangement or commitment (other than the Registration Rights Agreements), (x) outstanding contractual obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any Shares, or the capital stock or other equity interests or voting securities of the Company or of any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company or to provide funds to make any investment (in the form of a loan, capital contribution or otherwise) in any Subsidiary of the Company, (y) issued or outstanding stock appreciation rights, “phantom” stock rights, performance awards, units, dividend equivalent awards, rights to receive shares of Company’s Common Stock on a deferred basis, rights to purchase or receive Company’s Common Stock or other equity interest or voting securities issued or granted by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any current or former director, officer, employee or consultant of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (z) other rights or instruments that are linked to the price or value of the Company’s Common Stock or other equity interest or voting securities of the Company or its Subsidiaries (the items referred to in clauses (v) through (z) of or with respect to any Person, collectively, “Rights”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the receipt of the Stockholder Approval, (x) in response to a Company Superior Proposal which was not solicited by the Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any of its or their Representatives and did not otherwise result from a breach of this Section 5.2, the Company Board may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c) in order to cause the Company to concurrently enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Company Superior Proposal and (y) the Company Board may withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to Parent the Company Recommendation, in each case, only (A) if and to the extent that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel and its financial advisor, that failing to take any such action would result in a breach of the fiduciary duties of the Company Board and (B) at a time that is after the fourth Business Day following the Company’s delivery to Parent of written notice advising Parent that the Company Board intends to take such action, specifying, in the case of clause (x), the terms and conditions of such Company Superior Proposal, including the identity of the Person making the Company Superior Proposal and, in the case of clause (y), reasonable details regarding the cause for, and nature of, the withdrawal or modification of the Company Recommendation; provided that (I) any amendment to the financial terms or any other material term of any applicable Company Takeover Proposal or Company Superior Proposal shall require a new written notice by the Company and a new three Business Day period, and no such termination of this Agreement by the Company or withdrawal or modification of the Company Recommendation may be made during any such three Business Day period, (II) the Company shall, and shall cause its financial and legal advisors to, during such four or three Business Day period described above, negotiate with Parent and Merger Sub in good faith, to the extent Parent and Merger Sub desire to negotiate, to make such changes in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Company Takeover Proposal ceases to constitute a Company Superior Proposal or that the cause for such withdrawal or modification of the Company Recommendation ceases to exist, (III) the Company Board shall take into account any changes to the financial and other terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent in response to any such written notice by the Company or otherwise and (IV) the requirements for terminating this Agreement and withdrawing or modifying the Company Recommendation are still satisfied at the time this Agreement is terminated or at the time of such withdrawal or modification of the Company Recommendation.

(c) The Company shall promptly (but in no case later than 24 hours after receipt) advise Parent orally and in writing of the receipt of any Company Takeover Proposal

-31-

and of the price and other material terms and conditions of any such Company Takeover Proposal (including the identity of the Person making such Company Takeover Proposal) and of any changes or supplements thereto. The Company (i) promptly (but in no case later than 24 hours thereafter) shall advise Parent orally and in writing of the commencement of any discussions with any third party or its representatives regarding a Company Takeover Proposal by such third party and (ii) will keep Parent fully apprised on a current basis of any material related developments, discussions, and negotiations and shall provide to Parent promptly (but in no case later than 24 hours) after receipt or delivery thereof with copies of such Company Takeover Proposal (including any amendments or supplements thereto) and all such other information provided in writing to the Company by the party making such Company Takeover Proposal.

(d) Nothing contained in this Section 5.2 or in Section 6.6 shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board from taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) or Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making any other disclosure to the Company’s stockholders if, in the Company Board’s determination in good faith after consultation with outside counsel, the failure so to disclose would be inconsistent with its obligations under applicable Law provided that the Company and the Company Board may not withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to Parent the Company Recommendation, except to the extent expressly permitted by the exceptions described in Section 5.2(b).

Additionally, each of Parent and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts not to take any action after the date of this Agreement that would reasonably be expected to materially delay the obtaining of, or result in not obtaining, any permission, approval or consent from any Governmental Entity necessary to be obtained prior to Closing.

-33-

(b) Prior to the Closing, each party shall promptly consult with the other parties to this Agreement with respect to, provide any necessary information with respect to (and, in the case of correspondence, provide the other parties (or their counsel) copies of), all filings made by such party with any Governmental Entity or any other information supplied by such party to, or correspondence with, a Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions. Each party to this Agreement shall promptly inform the other parties to this Agreement of any communication from any Governmental Entity regarding any of the Transactions. If any party to this Agreement or any Affiliate of such parties receives a request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity with respect to the Transactions, then such party will use reasonable best efforts to make, or cause to be made, promptly and after consultation with the other parties to this Agreement, an appropriate response in compliance with such request. To the extent that transfers of any permits issued by any Governmental Entity are required as a result of the execution of this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect such transfers.

(c) The Company and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to file, as promptly as practicable, but in any event no later than fifteen Business Days after the date of this Agreement, notifications under the HSR Act and shall use reasonable best efforts to respond, as promptly as practicable, to any inquiries received from the Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice for additional information or documentation and to respond, as promptly as practicable, to all inquiries and requests received from any state Attorney General or other Governmental Entity in connection with antitrust matters.

(d) Each of Parent and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to resolve such objections, if any, as may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Transactions under the HSR Act, the Xxxxxxx Act, as amended, the Xxxxxxx Act, as amended, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, and any other United States federal or state or foreign or supranational Laws that are designed to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions having the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade (collectively, “Antitrust Laws”). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Section 6.3(d) shall limit the right of any party hereto to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, so long as such party hereto has, up to the time of termination, complied in all material respects with its obligations under this Section 6.3(d). Each of Parent and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to take such action as may be required to cause the expiration of the notice periods under the HSR Act or other Antitrust Laws with respect to the Transactions as promptly as possible after the execution of this Agreement.

(e) The parties shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Antitrust Laws so as to enable the Closing to occur as promptly as practicable (and in any event no later than the Outside Date), including to avoid Parent or its Subsidiaries from being disqualified or otherwise precluded from providing certain goods or services to the United States Department of Defense as a result of an Organizational Conflict of Interest issue. Those efforts shall include using reasonable best efforts, subject to Section 6.3(g), in (i) proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of businesses, product lines, assets or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, unless such sale, divestiture or disposition would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect,

-34-

(ii) otherwise taking or committing to take actions that after the Closing Date would limit Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ ability to retain one or more of the businesses, product lines, assets or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, unless such action would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (iii) cooperating to satisfy Section 7.2(f), including agreeing to the divestiture or other transfer or disposition of contracts listed on Section 6.3(e) of the Company Disclosure Letter (the “Specified Contracts”), in each case in connection with using reasonable best efforts to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any preliminary or permanent injunction, in any Action under any Antitrust Laws, which would otherwise have the effect of preventing the Closing or to avoid such disqualification or preclusion; provided, however, that any such action shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on or after March 1, 2008, the Company determines in good faith that it is necessary or advisable to divest or otherwise transfer or dispose of the Specified Contracts in order to satisfy Section 7.2(f), then the Company shall be entitled to take all legally permissible actions to divest or otherwise transfer or dispose of the Specified Contracts to the extent such actions would not reasonably be expected to result in an Organizational Conflict of Interest issue for, or otherwise impose any material liability or obligation on, Parent or the Company or their respective Subsidiaries.

(f) (i) The Company and Parent shall cooperate with respect to the prompt preparation and submission of a joint filing and any requested supplemental information (collectively, the “Joint Filing”) to the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (including any successor or replacement, “CFIUS”) under Exon-Xxxxxx with regard to the Transactions, (ii) Parent shall take primary responsibility for preparation and submission of the Joint Filing and (iii) the Company shall promptly provide to Parent all necessary information and otherwise promptly assist Parent in order for Parent to complete preparation and submission of the Joint Filing, to respond to any inquiries from CFIUS or any other interested Governmental Entity and use reasonable best efforts to secure the approval of CFIUS of the transactions contemplated hereby.

-35-

(h) The Company and the Company Board shall (i) take all action necessary to ensure that no state takeover statute or similar statute or regulation is or becomes applicable to any of the Transactions or this Agreement and (ii) if any state takeover statute or similar statute or regulation becomes applicable to the Transactions or this Agreement, take all action necessary to ensure that the Merger and the other Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to minimize the effect of such statute or regulation on the Merger and the other Transactions.

Section 6.5 Access; Confidentiality. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and applicable Law relating to the sharing of information, the Company agrees to provide, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to provide, Parent and its Representatives, from time to time prior to the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement, (x) reasonable access during normal business hours to, and (y) upon request, copies of relevant information to Parent regarding (i) the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ respective properties, books, contracts, commitments, personnel and records, (ii) information regarding actual or potential Organizational Conflict of Interest issues, (iii) information regarding the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries outside the United States, including with respect to sales practices, distributors, agents, customers and revenue and (iv) such other information as Parent shall reasonably request with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses, financial condition and operations.

(b) The Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, provide, for a period of not less than six years after the Effective Time, the Company’s current and former directors and officers (as defined to mean those persons insured under such policy) with an insurance and indemnification policy that provides coverage for events occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (the “D&O Insurance”) that is no less favorable than the existing policy or, if substantially equivalent insurance coverage is unavailable, the best available coverage; provided, however, that the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay an annual premium for the D&O Insurance in excess of 300 percent of the aggregate annual premiums paid by the Company for such insurance in 2007 through the date of this Agreement on an annualized basis (the “D&O Premium”), but in such case shall purchase as much of such coverage as possible for such amount; and provided, further, however, that at Parent’s option in lieu of the foregoing insurance coverage, the Surviving Corporation may purchase “tail” insurance coverage that provides coverage identical in all material respects to the coverage described above and such purchases do not result in any gaps or lapses in coverage with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time. The Company represents and warrants to Parent that the Company’s 2007 annual premium was $465,000.

(c) The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain the provisions with respect to indemnification set forth in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, which provisions shall not be amended, modified or otherwise repealed for a period of six years from the Effective Time in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder as of the Effective Time of any individual who at the Effective Time is a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or is or previously was serving at the request of the Company or its Subsidiaries as a director, trustee, officer, member, manager, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, limited liability company, pension or other

-37-

employee benefit plan or other enterprise, unless such modification is required after the Effective Time by Law and then only to the minimum extent required by such Law.
