Engility Announces Early Termination of Hart-Scott-Rodino Waiting Period for Acquisition of Dynamics Research Corporation

Engility Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: EGL) (“Engility”) today announced its receipt of notice from the Federal Trade Commission of the early termination of the required waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”) with respect to Engility’s proposed acquisition of Dynamics Research Corporation (“DRC”) (NASDAQ: DRCO).

As previously announced, on December 30, 2013, Engility’s indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Engility Solutions, Inc. (“Purchaser”), initiated a tender offer to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share, of DRC at a purchase price of $11.50 per share in cash, without interest and subject to any required withholding taxes. The tender offer is being made in connection with the previously announced Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 20, 2013 (the “Merger Agreement”), among Engility Corporation, a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Engility, Purchaser and DRC.

The expiration of the HSR Act waiting period satisfies one of the conditions of the completion of the tender offer. Completion of the tender offer remains subject to other customary conditions as set forth in the Offer to Purchase filed by Purchaser, Engility and Engility Corporation with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 30, 2013, including that there being validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the tender offer at least a two-thirds majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of DRC, calculated on a fully diluted basis. The tender offer is scheduled to expire on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 at midnight, New York City time, unless the offer is extended.
