Consent Regarding
Application of MIBRAG Proceeds
 
This Consent (this “Consent”) is dated as of February 16, 2010 and entered into by and among URS Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Company”), the financial institutions listed on the signature pages hereof (“Lenders”) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as agent for Lenders (“Agent”), and, for purposes of Section 6 hereof, the Guarantors listed on the signature pages hereof (“Guarantors”) and is made with reference to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of November 15, 2007 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Company, Lenders and Agent.  Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings herein as set forth in the Credit Agreement.
 
Recitals
 
Whereas, in June of 2009, Company and its Subsidiaries received approximately $257 million from the sale of interests in the MIBRAG Joint Ventures by a Foreign Subsidiary (the “MIBRAG Proceeds”);
 
Whereas, at the time of such sale, Company (i) notified Lenders that it would retain $50 million of the MIBRAG Proceeds for overseas reinvestment, (ii) prepaid $57 million of Term Loans with MIBRAG Proceeds repatriated on a tax free basis, and (iii) determined it would repatriate the balance of the MIBRAG Proceeds and prepay the Term Loans after the payment of taxes resulting from the repatriation;
 
Whereas, pursuant to that certain Consent Regarding Creation of New International Holding Company dated as of September 29, 2009 (the “September Consent”), (i) Lenders (a) gave their consent to a reorganization of the ownership of certain Foreign Subsidiaries in order to create (1) certain one-time tax savings in connection with the repatriation of the MIBRAG Proceeds (such savings, the “UpFront Tax Savings”), and (2) certain additional on-going tax efficiencies and (b) agreed to release certain Collateral in connection with the reorganization, and (ii) Company agreed to apply the UpFront Tax Savings to prepay Term Loans;
 
Whereas, Company has now determined that there may be potential foreign and domestic acquisitions that it may wish to pursue;
 
Whereas, the Credit Agreement does not require the prepayment of Term Loans with the balance of the MIBRAG Proceeds if the repatriation of such funds would result in a material tax liability and thus permits Company to use the balance of the MIBRAG Proceeds for foreign but not domestic reinvestments;
 
Whereas, Lenders are willing to permit Company and its Subsidiaries to use the balance of the MIBRAG Proceeds (including the UpFront Tax Savings) for general corporate purposes including domestic acquisitions;
 
Now, Therefore, in consideration of the premises and the agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
 
Section 1.  Consent
 
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in reliance on the representations and warranties of Company herein contained, Lenders hereby consent, notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2.4B(iii)(a) of the Credit Agreement and the terms of the September Consent, to the use by Company and its Subsidiaries of all or any portion of the MIBRAG Proceeds (including the UpFront Tax Savings) for general corporate purposes, including domestic acquisitions permitted under subsection 7.3 of the Credit Agreement, whether or not the MIBRAG Proceeds are reinvested within the timeframe specified in the Credit Agreement.

Section 2.  Limitation of Consent
 
Without limiting the generality of the provisions of subsection 9.6 of the Credit Agreement, the consent set forth above shall be limited precisely as written, and nothing in this Consent shall be deemed to:
 
(a)  constitute a waiver of compliance or consent to any action by Company with respect to (i) subsection 2.4B(iii)(a) of the Credit Agreement or the September Consent in any other instance or (ii) any other term, provision or condition of the Credit Agreement, the September Consent or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein; or
 
(b)  prejudice any right or remedy that Agent or any Lender may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, the September Consent or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein.
 
Except as expressly set forth herein, the terms, provisions and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the September Consent and the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and in all other respects are hereby ratified and confirmed.  This Consent shall constitute a Loan Document for all purposes of the Credit Agreement.
 
Section 3.  Representations and Warranties
 
In order to induce Lenders to enter into this Consent, Company hereby represents and warrants that after giving effect to this Consent:
 
(a)  as of the date hereof, there exists no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default under the Credit Agreement; and
 
(b)  all representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (i) that do not contain a materiality qualification are true, correct and complete in all material respects on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent such representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties were true, correct and complete in all material respects on and as of such earlier date; and (b) that contain a materiality qualification are true, correct and complete on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent such representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties were true, correct and complete on and as of such earlier date.
 
Section 4.  Counterparts; Effectiveness
 
This Consent may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.  This Consent shall become effective as of the date hereof upon the execution of counterparts hereof by Company and Guarantors and by Lenders constituting Requisite Lenders and receipt by Company and Agent of written or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof.
 
ii

 
Section 5.  Governing Law
 
This Consent and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by, and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York (including without limitation Section 5-1401 of the general obligations law of the State of New York), without regard to conflicts of laws principles that would require application of another law.
 
Section 6.  Acknowledgement and Consent By Guarantors
 
Guarantors hereby acknowledge that they have read this Consent and consent to the terms thereof and further hereby confirm and agree that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Consent, the obligations of Guarantors under the Subsidiary Guaranty shall not be impaired or affected and the Subsidiary Guaranty is, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and is hereby confirmed and ratified in all respects.
 
In Witness Whereof, the parties hereto have caused this Consent to be duly executed and delivered by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first written above.
