6.14 Headings. The descriptive headings contained in this Voting Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Voting Agreement.

No failure on the part of the Company to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Voting Agreement, and no delay on the part of the Company in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Voting Agreement, shall
7
operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. The Company shall not be deemed to have waived any claim available to the Company arising out of this Voting Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy of the Company under this Voting Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Company; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.
6.16 Independence of Obligations. The covenants and obligations of Stockholder set forth in this Voting Agreement shall be construed as independent of any other contract between Stockholder, on the one hand, and the Company or Parent, on the other. The existence of any claim or cause of action by Stockholder against the Company or Parent shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of any of such covenants or obligations against Stockholder. Nothing in this Voting Agreement shall limit any of the rights or remedies of the Company under the Merger Agreement, or any of the rights or remedies of the Company or any of the obligations of Stockholder under any agreement between Stockholder and the Company or any certificate or instrument executed by Stockholder in favor of the Company; and nothing in the Merger Agreement or in any other such agreement, certificate or instrument, shall limit any of the rights or remedies of the Company or any of the obligations of Stockholder under this Voting Agreement.
6.17 Other Capacities. Notwithstanding any provision of this Voting Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Voting Agreement shall limit or restrict Stockholder from acting in good faith in Stockholder’s capacity as a director or officer of Parent (it being understood that this Voting Agreement shall apply to Stockholder solely in Stockholder’s capacity as a stockholder of Parent).
6.18 Construction.
(a) For purposes of this Voting Agreement, whenever the context requires: the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa; the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders; the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter genders; and the neuter gender shall include masculine and feminine genders.

EXHIBIT A
FORM OF IRREVOCABLE PROXY
Proxy
IRREVOCABLE PROXY
The undersigned stockholder (the “Stockholder”) of Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), hereby irrevocably (to the fullest extent permitted by law) appoints and constitutes Integral Systems, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”) and X. Xxxxxx Xxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxxx, solely in their capacities as officers of the Company, and each of them, the attorneys and proxies of the Stockholder, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to the full extent of the Stockholder’s rights with respect to the outstanding shares of capital stock of Parent owned of record by the Stockholder as of the date of this proxy, which shares are specified on the final page of this proxy, and any and all other shares or securities issued or issuable in respect thereof on or after the date hereof and prior to the date this proxy terminates. (The shares of the capital stock of Parent and other securities referred to in the immediately preceding sentence are referred to as the “Shares.”) Upon the execution of this proxy, all prior proxies given by the Stockholder with respect to any of the Shares are hereby revoked; provided, however, that any proxy delivered by the Stockholder to Parent management in connection with proposals, including the election of directors, to be submitted to stockholders at Parent’s 2011 annual meeting of stockholders shall not be revoked, and the Stockholder agrees that no subsequent proxies inconsistent with this Proxy will be given with respect to any of the Shares.
This proxy is irrevocable, is coupled with an interest and is granted in connection with, and as security for, the Voting Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between the Company and the Stockholder (the “Voting Agreement”), and is granted in consideration of the Company entering into the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof, among Parent, Iris Merger Sub Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, Iris Acquisition Sub LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and the Company (the “Merger Agreement”). This proxy will terminate on the Expiration Date (as defined in the Voting Agreement). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Irrevocable Proxy have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Merger Agreement.
Prior to the Expiration Date, the attorneys and proxies named above will be empowered, and may exercise this proxy, to vote any Shares owned by the undersigned, at any meeting of the stockholders of Parent, however called, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of Parent:
(a) in favor of the Parent Share Issuance;
(b) against any Parent Alternative Proposal; and
(c) against any other action, agreement, proposal or transaction involving Parent or any of its subsidiaries which other action, agreement, proposal or transaction would compete with, interfere with, impede, frustrate, prevent, burden or nullify the Merger or the Merger Agreement.
The Stockholder may vote the Shares on all other matters not referred to in this proxy, and the attorneys and proxies named above may not exercise this proxy with respect to such other matters.
This proxy shall be binding upon the heirs, estate, executors, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the Stockholder (including any transferee of any of the Shares).
Any term or provision of this proxy that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this proxy or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this proxy so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.
