CONTRACT BACKLOG
Funded, Unfunded and Ceiling Backlog Backlog represents an estimate, as of a specific date, of the remaining future revenue anticipated from existing contracts Funded backlog is the value of contracts awarded whose funding has been authorized by the customer, less revenue previously recognized under the same contracts Unfunded backlog is the estimated value of additional funding not yet authorized by customers on existing contracts Ceiling backlog is the value reasonably available on the IDIQ contracts for future tasking Total backlog is over 7.5x revenue and provides significant visibility into future revenue streams FY 2012 Q2 backlog strong at $369 million funded, $1.95 billion unfunded and $3.53 billion ceiling value to total $5.86 billion FY 2011 overall win rate of 59%; win rate on recompetes is 84% ($ in millions) (1) Identified for remainder of FY2013- FY2015. (2) As of Q2 FY2012. Tracking & Pursuing(1): $14.3 billion Submitted(2): $2.5 billion In process(2): $485 mm Large Contract Backlog and Strong Revenue Visibility Pipeline of Opportunities

INDUSTRY UPDATE
Cost reduction initiatives to achieve $480 billion over 10 years Reduce the size of the Army from 570,000 troops to 520,000 troops or less Reduce Marine Corps from 209,000 troops to 186,000 troops Reduction in personnel costs, pay, healthcare and other benefits Reduction in nuclear arsenals from 5,000 to 1,500 Areas emphasized for further investments include Special Operations Forces, UAVs and cyber security ($ in billions) Source: DoD, Credit Suisse estimates We are here Korea Vietnam Reagan buildup Iraq/ Afghanistan U.S. budget backdrop will remain the key driver until the inevitable adverse geopolitical event forces a re-assessment. November elections may trigger a temporary move, up or down ($ in billions, unless otherwise stated) Source: DoD, Company data, Credit Suisse estimates Korea Vietnam Reagan buildup GW Bush WWII Defense Budget Outlook U.S. defense spending history and spending as % of US GDP Long-term U.S. defense budget (base + OCO) - constant FY2011 $ Projections for future years ($ in billions)
Defense Outlook Creates Opportunities for Alion Government Priorities President's January 2012 military priorities emphasize presence in Western Pacific and Southwest Asia Four Aegis platforms home ported to allow remaining ballistic missile cruisers and destroyers to deploy to Western Pacific Worn out, damaged and destroyed equipment from Iraq and Afghanistan to be replaced Increased use of modeling and simulation throughout a system's life cycle NSA, DoD and DHS increasing focus on cyber threats Special Forces Command (SOCOM) is getting additional troops and funding Opportunities Army and Marine Corps funding major reset of equipment Sea based missile defense will continue to expand Strong support to SOCOM in production of mobile technology and repair complex (MTRCs) and rapid equipment manufacturing Modeling and simulation and serious games are basis for future training Cyber security will remain as a threat Navy shipbuilding to continue as planned (300 ship platform)
Sequestration: January 2, 2013 Budget Control Act of Aug 2011 (BCA) Congress must approve deficit reduction or face sequestration starting January 2nd, 2013 Sequestration: $1.2 trillion ($109 billion / 9 years) from the budget for 2013- 2021 Cuts shared between: DoD & Non-defense discretionary budget authority Approximately $55 billion from each of above from 2013 to 2021 This is 10 % annual DoD cut and 7.8% non-defense (on top of caps in the BCA) Exempt: SS, Federal retirement, Medicaid, Medicare limited to 2% Automatic, equally distributed cuts across accounts, not by line items Significant ambiguity: OMB implements, Agencies and Congress advised Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO)($88 billion) may be included The most likely scenario is 6-12 month extension of the law to allow more negotiations post election and lame duck session
FINANCIAL SUMMARY
Financial update Q2 Revenue provided positive growth; strong contract backlog Margins improving due to implementation of efficiencies & cost reductions Liquidity solid, steady / predictable cash inflows, managing cash outflows ($ in millions) (1) Current revolver size of $35 million. $3.7 million letters of credit outstanding.
