VSE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2010

(1) Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

Our business is focused on providing sustainment services for U.S. Department of Defense ("DoD") legacy systems and equipment and professional services to DoD and Federal Civilian agencies. Our operations consist primarily of logistics, engineering, equipment refurbishment, IT, construction management and consulting services performed on a contract basis. Substantially all of our contracts are with United States Government (“government”) agencies and other government prime contractors.

Our active divisions include GLOBAL Division (“GLOBAL”), Communications and Engineering Division (“CED”), Engineering and Logistics Division (“ELD”), Field Support Services Division (“FSS”), Fleet Maintenance Division (“FMD”), and Systems Engineering Division (“SED”). Our active subsidiaries are Energetics Incorporated (“Energetics”), Integrated Concepts and Research Corporation (“ICRC”), and G&B Solutions, Inc. (“G&B”).

Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010. For further information refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

We have elected to change the presentation of the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income to report “operating income” instead of “gross profit.” This change did not impact the amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2009.

Subsequent Events

There were no subsequent events that required recognition or disclosure.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates affecting the financial statements include accruals for contract disallowance reserves, self-insured health claims and estimated cost-to-complete on firm fixed-price contracts.

(2) Bank Notes Payable

We have a loan agreement with a group of banks that provides us with revolving loans and letters of credit. The maximum amount of credit available to us at June 30, 2010 was $50 million and the loan agreement has a provision whereby we may elect to increase the maximum credit availability to a total of $75 million. The maturity date of the loan agreement is August 26, 2011. From time

VSE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2010

to time we may request changes in the amount, maturity date, or other terms and the banks may amend the loan to accommodate our request. The amount of credit available to us under the loan agreement is subject to certain conditions, including a borrowing formula based on our billed receivables. Under the terms of the loan agreement, we may borrow against the revolving loan at any time and can repay the borrowings at any time without premium or penalty. We pay a commitment fee, interest on any revolving loan borrowings at a prime-based rate or an optional LIBOR-based rate, and fees on any letters of credit that are issued.

We had approximately $4.9 million and $4.8 million of letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. We had no revolving loan amounts outstanding as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. Interest expense incurred on revolving loan borrowings was approximately $35 thousand and $67 thousand for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and approximately $19 thousand and $73 thousand for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009, respectively.

The loan agreement contains collateral requirements that secure our assets, restrictive covenants, a limit on annual dividends, and other affirmative and negative covenants. Under the terms of the loan agreement, we have agreed to maintain a $600 thousand compensating balance with one of the banks. As of June 30, 2010 we have not been notified by the banks, nor are we aware, of any defaults under the loan agreement.

(3) Stock-based Compensation

Restricted Stock

In January of every year since 2007, we have notified certain employees that they are eligible to receive awards under the 2006 Restricted Stock Plan based on our financial performance for the respective calendar years. On March 2, 2010, the employees eligible for the restricted stock awards based on the financial performance of 2007, 2008, and 2009 received 16,123 shares of common stock.

We also have awarded shares of restricted stock to our non-employee Directors under the 2006 Restricted Stock Plan. On January 2, 2010, the non-employee Directors received a total of 4,900 shares of common stock.

The compensation expense related to all restricted stock awards discussed above and included in contract costs was approximately $204 thousand and $699 thousand for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, respectively, and approximately $346 thousand and $881 thousand for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009, respectively.

The stock-based compensation amount of approximately $392 thousand and $625 thousand shown on the accompanying statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, is based on the compensation expense included in contract costs reduced by the tax withholding associated with the awards issued during the applicable periods.

(4) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) has been computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding.

Diluted EPS has been computed in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during each period. Potentially dilutive common shares represent incremental common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options. There were no common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options that could potentially dilute EPS in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

	Three months				Six months
	ended June 30,				ended June 30,
	2010		2009		2010		2009

Basic weighted average common shares outstanding		5,191,909		5,130,372		5,186,191		5,121,414

Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding		5,191,909		5,142,799		5,186,191		5,134,759

(5) Commitments and Contingencies

We have, in the normal course of business, certain claims against us and against other parties and we may be subject to various governmental investigations. In our opinion, the resolution of these claims and investigations will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position. However, the results of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty.

(6) Business Segments and Customer Information

Business Segments

Management of our business operations is conducted under four reportable operating segments: the Federal Group, the International Group, the IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group, and the Infrastructure Group. These segments operate under separate management teams and financial information is produced for each segment. The various divisions within the Federal Group and the International Group and the two subsidiaries within the IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group are operating segments as defined by the accounting standard for segment reporting and meet the aggregation of operating segments criteria. We evaluate segment performance based on consolidated revenues and profits or losses from operating income.

Federal Group - Our Federal Group provides engineering, technical, management and integrated logistics support services to U.S. military branches and other government agencies. The divisions in this group are CED, ELD, FSS, and SED.

Balance as of June 30, 2010	$	14,687	$	6,243	$	20,930

Under the terms of the ICRC and G&B acquisitions, additional consideration is due to the sellers if certain financial performance targets are achieved. G&B achieved certain financial performance targets for the second earn-out period ended on March 31, 2010. This resulted in a $1.4 million earn-out, which was recorded as goodwill during the first quarter of 2010 and paid to the seller in May 2010. ICRC achieved certain financial performance targets for the third earn-out period ended on December 31, 2009. Additional goodwill of approximately $445 thousand was recorded as of December 31, 2009 and paid to the seller in March 2010.

(8) Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standard for fair value measurements defines fair value, and establishes a market-based framework or hierarchy for measuring fair value. The standard is applicable whenever assets and liabilities are measured at fair value.

The fair value hierarchy established in the standard prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels as follows:

Level 1 – Observable inputs – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities – includes quoted prices for similar instruments, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in inactive markets, and amounts derived from valuation models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets; and

-11-

Table of Contents

VSE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2010

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs – includes amounts derived from valuation models where one or more significant inputs are unobservable and require us to develop relevant assumptions.

Included in other assets as of June 30, 2010 and in other current assets and other long-term assets as of December 31, 2009 is approximately $3.5 million and $4.8 million, respectively, of investments we hold in a trust related to a non-qualified benefit plan. We determined the fair value of these assets using the Level 1 methodology. We have an offsetting deferred compensation liability for this plan. As such, we do not have earnings volatility as a result of fluctuations in the value of the plan’s investments.

(9) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, the FASB revised its accounting guidance related to revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables. The guidance relates to the determination of when the individual deliverables included in a multiple-element arrangement may be treated as separate units of accounting and modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the individual deliverables. Also, the guidance expands the disclosure requirements for revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables. The guidance will be effective for us beginning on January 1, 2011, and may be applied retrospectively for all periods presented or prospectively to arrangements entered into or materially modified after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is retroactively applied to the beginning of the year of adoption. We are currently assessing the potential effect the adoption of this new guidance will have, if any, on our financial statements.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Executive Overview

Organization

Our business is managed under operating groups. Our Federal Group operations are conducted by our Communications and Engineering Division ("CED"), Engineering and Logistics Division ("ELD"), Field Support Services Division (“FSS”), and Systems Engineering Division ("SED"). Our International Group operations are conducted by our GLOBAL Division ("GLOBAL") and Fleet Maintenance Division ("FMD"). Our IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group operations are conducted by our wholly owned subsidiaries Energetics Incorporated ("Energetics") and G&B Solutions, Inc. (“G&B”). Our Infrastructure Group operations are conducted by our wholly owned subsidiary Integrated Concepts and Research Corporation (“ICRC”).

Segments

Our operations are conducted within four reportable segments aligned with our management groups: 1) Federal; 2) International; 3) IT, Energy and Management Consulting; and 4) Infrastructure.

Federal Group - Our Federal Group provides engineering, technical, management and integrated logistics support services to U.S. military branches and other government agencies.

CED - CED is dedicated to the management and execution of the Rapid Response (“R2”) Program, which supports clients across DoD and the government. CED manages execution of tasks involving research and development, technology insertion, systems integration and engineering, hardware/software fabrication and installation, testing and evaluation, studies and analysis, technical data management, logistics support, training and acquisition support. A large portion of our current work on this program is related to the U.S. military involvement in the Middle East and Asia. A substantial portion of our revenue on the R2 contract results from the pass through of subcontractor support services that have a low profit margin. The contract supporting the R2 Program is scheduled to expire in January 2011.

ELD - ELD provides full life cycle engineering, logistics, maintenance and refurbishment services to extend and enhance the life of existing equipment. ELD supports the U.S. Army, Army Reserve and Army National Guard with core competencies in combat and combat service support system conversions, technical research, sustainment and re-engineering, system integration and configuration management.

FSS - FSS provides worldwide field maintenance and logistics support services for a wide variety of military vehicles and equipment, including performance of organizational, intermediate and specialized depot-level maintenance. FSS principally supports the U.S. Army and Marine Corps by providing specialized Field Service Representatives (“FSR”) and Field Support Teams (“FST”) in areas of combat operations and austere environments.

SED - SED provides comprehensive systems and software engineering, logistics, and prototyping services to DoD. SED principally supports the U.S. Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps combat and combat support systems. SED’s core competencies include: systems technical support, configuration management and life cycle support for wheeled and tracked vehicles and ground support equipment; obsolescence management, service life extension, and technology insertion programs; and technical documentation and data packages.

-13-

Table of Contents

International Group - Our International Group provides engineering, industrial, logistics and foreign military sales services to the U.S. military and other government agencies.

GLOBAL - Through GLOBAL, we provide assistance to the U.S. Navy in executing its Foreign Military Sales (“FMS”) Program for surface ships sold, leased or granted to foreign countries. Global provides program management, engineering, technical support, logistics services for ship reactivations and transfers and follow-on technical support. The level of revenues and associated profits resulting from fee income generated by this program varies depending on a number of factors, including the timing of ship transfers and associated support services ordered by foreign governments and economic conditions of potential customers worldwide. Changes in the level of activity associated with the Navy’s ship transfer program have historically caused quarterly and annual revenue fluctuations.

FMD - FMD provides field engineering, logistics, maintenance, and information technology services to the U.S. Navy and Air Force, including fleet-wide ship and aircraft support programs. FMD’s expertise includes ship repair and modernization, ship systems installations, ordnance engineering and logistics, facility operations, war reserve materials management, and IT systems integration.

Treasury Seized Asset Program – FMD also provides management, maintenance, storage and disposal support for the U.S. Department of Treasury’s seized and forfeited general property program. Our contract with the Department of Treasury to support this program is a cost plus incentive fee contract that contains certain conditions under which the incentive fee revenue is earned. The amount of incentive fee earned depends on our costs incurred on the contract compared to certain target cost levels specified in the contract. An assessment of actual costs compared to target costs is made annually pursuant to the contract. We recognize incentive fee when the amount is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Due to the conditions under which the incentive fee for this contract is awarded, and to the potential for changes in the cost targets as work requirements vary, the full amount of incentive fee for the work we perform in any one period may not be fixed or determinable and the collectability may not be reasonably assured until a subsequent period. The current evaluation period ends on September 30, 2010.

Revenues on the “Other” line in the table above include: 1) revenues in our Federal Group from legacy sustainment equipment refurbishment services performed by our ELD division and from work performed by our FSS and SED divisions on programs other than the RCV Modernization Program; 2) revenues in our FMD division from services provided on engineering and technical services task orders and from work performed on the CFT Program; and 3) revenues from various contracts performed in our IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group.

Management Outlook

We believe that our near term outlook has not changed appreciably from our recent prior filings with the SEC. We continue to sharpen our focus on strategic efforts to improve our profit margins at a time when we are experiencing an anticipated decline in our revenues. Our over-arching strategy of transitioning from low-to-no profit margin subcontract work while also moving to more promising Federal markets is having the desired effect of increasing profit margins. The intended result is an increased percentage of work performed by our employees while performing a larger percentage of that work in growing Federal markets. These efforts have resulted in improved profit margins in each of the first two quarters of 2010.

Our strategic efforts to improve our profit margins include increasing our direct labor revenue and diversifying our service offerings and customer base. Revenue from work performed by our employees, or direct labor revenue, typically has a higher profit margin than revenue generated by our subcontractor work, which generally has little or no associated profit. We began the year 2010 with 614 more employees than we began 2009, and we have added 78 employees in the first two quarters of 2010. We had 2,612 employees as of June 30, 2010 and 2,534 employees as of December 31, 2009. As a result, our direct labor and the associated revenues are up in 2010 and we expect to realize the benefits of this higher labor base as we go forward. The largest portion of our new employees are engaged in work on DoD legacy systems sustainment services, an area on which we believe DoD will continue to be focused in the near future. Work performed by our subcontractors that generated much of our revenue growth in prior years continues to decline and is the primary reason for the decrease in revenue.

There are indications of a shift in government spending to more services for energy, IT infrastructure, physical infrastructure, and health care IT, and we have had an increase in the number of our employees performing services for Federal Civilian agencies in these strategic areas. Accordingly, we continue to emphasize growth in these services. These efforts include: 1) an emphasis on marketing our Energetics subsidiary services that has shown favorable results, including an increase in the number of Energetics employees and new contracts that will be performed during the next three to five years; 2) an emphasis on increasing G&B services offered by its employees; 3) an emphasis on marketing ICRC infrastructure services to a wider range of clients; and 4) our continued commitment to grow through strategic acquisitions of companies that perform services in these areas for Federal Civilian government agencies as well as for DoD. We expect these efforts directed toward the growth of our work in these service areas will help offset declines in revenue from DoD-related subcontractor work.

We also know there are risks and uncertainties related to our business. Government spending priorities may continue to change significantly. The current administration is redefining “inherently governmental work.” As a consequence, the government is implementing a strategy of “in-sourcing” to move work from federal contractors into the government.

Bookings and Funded Backlog

Revenues in our industry depend on contract funding (“bookings”) and funded contract backlog is an indicator of potential future revenues. A summary of our bookings and revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and funded contract backlog as of June 30, 2010 and 2009 is as follows:

	(in millions)
	2010	2009
Bookings	$458	$464
Revenues	$441	$496
Funded Contract Backlog	$491	$536

Our decline in funded contract backlog resulted from a decline of approximately $121 million in funded contract backlog on task orders that consist primarily of low margin subcontractor work, which was partially offset by increases in funded contract backlog on other task orders and contracts.

Our revenues decreased approximately $43 million, or 17%, for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period of 2009. Revenues decreased approximately $55 million, or 11%, for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period of 2009. Revenues in our Federal, International, and Infrastructure Groups declined while revenues increased in our IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group during these periods.

Our operating income decreased approximately $536 thousand, or approximately 5% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period of 2009. Operating income increased approximately $671 thousand, or approximately 4% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period of 2009. Operating income in our Federal Group declined while operating income increased in each of our other operating groups during these periods.

Changes in revenues and income are further discussed in the summaries of our group results that follow.

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of costs and expenses that are not chargeable or reimbursable on our operating unit contracts. These expenses increased for the three- six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same periods of 2009 due to strategic planning costs, corporate consulting costs and professional services fees.

Profit percentage		4.7	%		4.2	%		4.2	%		3.6	%

Revenues for our Federal Group decreased approximately $23 million and $46 million, or 15%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same periods for the prior year. The decreases in revenues for this segment resulted primarily from a decrease associated with work performed under our R2 contract of approximately $27 million and $59 million, for the three- and six-month periods, respectively. Revenues associated with our ELD division equipment refurbishment services also declined approximately $5 million and $7 million for the three- and six-month periods, respectively. The declines in revenues in this group were partially offset by revenue increases of approximately $6 million and $13 million for the three- and six-month periods associated with our FSS Division work on vehicles and equipment overseas and by revenue increases of approximately $4 million and $7 million for the three- and six-month periods associated with our SED Division engineering and design work.

Operating income for our Federal Group decreased approximately $363 thousand and $77 thousand, or 6% and %1, for the three- six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same periods for the prior year. The decreases in operating income for these periods are primarily due to: decreases in profits of approximately $632 thousand and $582 thousand associated with the decline in revenues from our R2 Program; decreases in profits of approximately $1.5 million and $2.8 million associated with the decline in revenues on our ELD equipment refurbishment services; increases in profits of approximately $900 thousand and $2.1 million on our FSS division work attributable to the increased revenues in this division; and increases in profits of approximately $900 thousand and $1.3 on our SED division work. Profit margins in this group are increasing as revenues from our low margin subcontractor work on the R2 Program decline and revenues generated by our direct labor become a larger percentage of our overall revenues.

Revenues for our International Group decreased approximately $20 million and $15 million, or 28% and 11%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same periods for the prior year. The decrease in revenues resulted primarily from a decline of approximately $22 million and $35 million in revenues for these periods from FMD services provided on engineering and technical services task orders. The revenue declines were partially offset by revenue increases on the CFT Program of approximately $1.4 million and $3.7 million for the three- and six-month periods, respectively, revenue increases on the Treasury Seized Asset Program of approximately $247 thousand and $2.2 million for the three- and six-month periods, respectively, and revenue increases on our GLOBAL Division services of approximately $13 million.

Operating income for our International Group increased approximately $86 thousand and $290 thousand, or 5% and 8%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same periods for the prior year. The increases are primarily due to: a change in the profitability of the Treasury Seized Asset Program of approximately $480 thousand and $805 thousand for these periods; an increase in profits of approximately $370 thousand and $783 thousand for these periods from our GLOBAL Division work; a decline in profits of approximately $495 thousand and $690 thousand for these periods from the CFT Program; and to a decline in profits of approximately $221 thousand and $539 thousand for these periods associated with the lower revenues from FMD services provided on engineering and technical services task orders.

The increase in revenues resulted from an increase in the revenues of our Energetics subsidiary revenues of approximately $1.6 million and $3.5 million and an increase in our G&B subsidiary revenues of approximately $1.1 million and $2.8 million for these periods. Both of these subsidiaries have increased their direct labor workforces as compared to the prior year, which has resulted in increased revenues.

Operating income for this segment increased approximately $220 thousand and $1 million, or 10% and 30%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same periods for the prior year. The increased profits are primarily attributable to the increases in revenues in both subsidiaries.

This segment consists of our ICRC subsidiary. Revenues for this group decreased approximately $2.5 million and $244 thousand, or 21% and 1%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same periods for the prior year. Operating income for this segment decreased approximately $114 thousand, or 38%, and increased approximately $128 thousand, or 38%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same periods for the prior year. Changes in revenues and operating income for this division are primarily attributable to revenue and profit activity on the PIEP. We received an award fee on the PIEP of approximately $117 thousand in the first quarter of 2010.

Financial Condition

Our financial condition did not change materially in the first six months of 2010. Changes to asset and liability accounts were due primarily to our earnings, our level of business activity, contract delivery schedules, subcontractor and vendor payments required to perform our work, and the timing of associated billings to and collections from our customers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents decreased approximately $927 thousand during the first six months of 2010.

Cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of 2010 decreased by approximately $6.3 million as compared to the same period of 2009. This resulted from an increase of approximately $7.8 million in cash used in operating activities due to changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities, which was offset by increases of approximately $1 million in depreciation and amortization and other non-cash operating activities and approximately $419 thousand of net income. Of the operating assets and liabilities, our largest asset is our accounts receivable and our largest liability is our accounts payable. A significant portion of our accounts receivable and accounts payable result from the use of subcontractors to perform work on our contracts and from the purchase of materials to fulfill our contract requirements. Accordingly, our levels of accounts receivable and

-20-

Table of Contents

accounts payable may fluctuate significantly depending on the timing of the government services ordered, the timing of billings received from subcontractors and materials vendors to fulfill these services, and the timing of payments received from customers of the government in payment of these services. Such timing differences may cause significant increases and decreases in our accounts receivable and accounts payable in short time periods.

We used approximately $1.9 million less cash in investing activities in the first six months of 2010 as compared to the same period of 2009. Investing activities consisted of purchases of property and equipment and earn-out payments associated with the acquisitions of ICRC and G&B when certain financial performance targets were achieved.

Cash used for financing activities in the first six months of 2010 decreased by approximately $3.9 million as compared to the same period of 2009. This difference was primarily the result of borrowing requirements on our bank loan in 2009 as compared to no borrowing requirements in 2010.

We paid quarterly cash dividends of $0.05 per share in each of the first two quarters of 2010. Pursuant to our bank loan agreement, our payment of cash dividends is subject to annual rate restrictions. We have paid cash dividends each year since 1973.

Liquidity

Our internal sources of liquidity are primarily from operating activities, specifically from changes in the level of revenues and associated accounts receivable and accounts payable, and from profitability. Significant increases or decreases in revenues and accounts receivable and accounts payable can cause significant increases or decreases in internal liquidity. Our accounts receivable and accounts payable levels can be affected by changes in the level of the work we perform and by the timing of large materials purchases and subcontractor efforts used in our contracts.

We also purchase property and equipment and invest in expansion, improvement, and maintenance of our operational and administrative facilities. From time to time, we may also invest in the acquisition of other companies as we continue to seek opportunities for growth.

Our external liquidity consists of a loan agreement with a group of banks that provides us with revolving loans and letters of credit. The maximum amount of credit available to us as of June 30, 2010 was $50 million and under the loan agreement we may elect to increase the maximum credit availability up to $75 million. The maturity date of the loan agreement is August 26, 2011. The amount of credit available to us under the loan agreement is subject to certain conditions, including a borrowing formula based on our billed receivables. Under the terms of the loan agreement, we may borrow against the revolving loan at any time and can repay the borrowings at any time without premium or penalty. We pay a commitment fee, interest on any revolving loan borrowings at a prime-based rate or an optional LIBOR-based rate, and fees on any letters of credit that are issued.

We were using approximately $4.9 million of the loan agreement availability as of June 30, 2010, consisting of letters of credit. We had no revolving loan amounts outstanding as of June 30, 2010. During the first six months of 2010, the highest outstanding revolving loan amount was $16.5 million and the lowest was $0. The timing of certain payments made and collections received associated with our subcontractor and materials requirements and other operating expenses can cause temporary peaks in our outstanding revolving loan amounts.

The loan agreement contains collateral requirements that secure our assets, restrictive covenants, a limit on annual dividends, and other affirmative and negative covenants. Restrictive covenants include a maximum Leverage Ratio (Total Funded Debt/EBITDA) and a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio that we were in compliance with at June 30, 2010.

Our banks continue to maintain investment grade credit ratings from the ratings services and we believe that we are well positioned to obtain financing from other banks if the need should arise. Accordingly, we do not believe that turbulence in the financial markets will have a material adverse impact on our ability to finance our business, financial condition, or results of operations. We currently do not use public debt security financing.

Inflation and Pricing

Most of our contracts provide for estimates of future labor costs to be escalated for any option periods, while the non-labor costs in our contracts are normally considered reimbursable at cost. Our property and equipment consists principally of computer systems equipment, furniture and fixtures, shop equipment, and land and improvements. We do not expect the overall impact of inflation on replacement costs of our property and equipment to be material to our future results of operations or financial condition.

Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rates

Our bank loan provides available borrowing to us at variable interest rates. The amount borrowed is not large with respect to our cash flows and we believe that we will be able to pay down any bank loan borrowings in a relatively short time frame. Because of this, we do not believe that any adverse movement in interest rates would have a material impact on future earnings or cash flows. If we were to significantly increase our borrowings, future interest rate changes could potentially have a material impact on us.
