Re:          Initial Public Offering

 

Gentlemen:

 

This letter is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered into by and between Federal Services Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and CRT Capital Group LLC (the “Underwriter”), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “IPO”) of the Company’s units (the “Units”), each comprised of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and two warrants, each of which are exercisable for one share of Common Stock (each, a “Warrant”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 10 hereof.

 

In order to induce the Company and the Underwriter to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the IPO, and in recognition of the benefit that such IPO will confer upon the undersigned as a stockholder of the Company, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees with the Company as follows:

 

1.             If the Company solicits approval of its stockholders of a Business Combination, the undersigned will vote all Insider Shares and IPO Shares owned by him in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the holders of the Public Stockholders.

 

2.             In the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 18 months from the effective date (“Effective Date”) of the registration statement relating to the IPO or 24 months under the circumstances described in the prospectus relating to the IPO (the first to occur of such dates, the “Transaction Failure Date”), the undersigned will take all reasonable actions within his power to cause (i) the Trust Fund to be liquidated and distributed to the holders of the IPO Shares as soon as practicable but in no event later than 60 (sixty) calendar days after the Transaction Failure Date and (ii) cause the Company to dissolve and liquidate as soon as practicable (the earliest date on which the conditions in clauses (i) and (ii) are both satisfied being the “Liquidation Date”). The undersigned hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any distributions of the Trust Fund as a result of such distribution with respect to his Insider Shares (“Claim”) and hereby waives any Claim the undersigned may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any contracts or agreements with the Company and will not seek recourse against the Trust Fund for any reason whatsoever. The undersigned hereby agrees that the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement from the undersigned for any distribution of the Trust Fund received by the undersigned in respect of such

 


 

person’s Insider Shares. The undersigned agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, jointly and severally with Joel R. Jacks, against any and all loss, liability, claims, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating preparing or defending against any litigation, whether pending or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) which the Company may become subject as a result of any claim by any vendor or other person who is owed money by the Company for services rendered or products sold, or any claim by any target business, but only to the extent necessary to ensure that such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense does not reduce the amount in the Trust Fund.

 

3.             The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Company will not consummate its initial Business Combination with any company which is affiliated with one or more of the Insiders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in no event will the Company seek to acquire as its initial Business Combination any of the portfolio companies in which any private equity funds managed by the undersigned or Joel R. Jacks have an investment.

 

4.             In order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple affiliations, the undersigned will present to the Company for its consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or company, any suitable opportunity to acquire a Target Business, until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination, the distribution of the Trust Fund or until such time as the undersigned ceases to be an officer, director and stockholder of the Company, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary obligations the undersigned might have, including any portfolio company managed by CMEP.

 

5.             Neither the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any Affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive and will not accept any compensation for services rendered to the Company prior to or in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, provided that commencing on the effective date of the IPO, CM Equity Management, L.P. (“Related Party”) shall be allowed to charge the Company $7,500 per month to compensate it for the Company’s use of Related Party’s offices, utilities and personnel. The undersigned shall also be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for his out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with seeking and consummating a Business Combination.

 

6.             Neither the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any Affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive, or accept, a finder’s fee or any other compensation in the event the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned or any Affiliate of the undersigned originates a Business Combination.

 

7.             The undersigned will escrow his Insider Shares for the three year period commencing on the Effective Date subject to the terms of a Stock Escrow Agreement which the Company will enter into with an escrow agent acceptable to the Company.

 

8.             The undersigned agrees to be a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, President and Secretary of the Company until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination or the Liquidation Date. The undersigned’s biographical information furnished to the Company and the Underwriter and attached hereto as Exhibit A is true and accurate in all respects, does not omit any material information with respect to the undersigned’s background and contains all of the information required to be disclosed pursuant
