Voting Procedures

Record Date. The record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is April 7, 2016 ("Record Date"). As of April 7, 2016, there were 40,238,461 shares of Class A Common Stock and 4,037,628 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Votes. Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share of Common Stock held in the election of Class A/B Common Directors and any other issue to be decided at the Annual Meeting. Cumulative voting is not permitted.

Quorum and Vote Required. A quorum consists of stockholders representing, either in person or by proxy, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast at the Annual Meeting. Banks, brokers, and other nominees do not have the authority to vote your uninstructed shares in the election of directors. If a beneficial owner of the Common Stock does not instruct its bank, broker, or other nominee how to vote its shares in the election of directors, no votes will be cast on that beneficial owner's behalf. These broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present and will have no effect on the result of the vote on the issues on the ballot.

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast if a quorum is present. The affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast at the Annual Meeting if a quorum is present is required to ratify the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm.

Voting Methods. Holders of the Common Stock may vote by (1) signing, dating and mailing the enclosed proxy card in the postage paid envelope provided, or (2) attending the Annual Meeting and voting their shares in person. If shares of the Common Stock are held in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee, the beneficial owner of those shares must provide the bank, broker, or other nominee with instructions on how to vote those shares by following the voting instructions provided by the bank, broker, or other nominee. A beneficial holder may not vote any shares held in the name of a bank, broker, or other nominee unless the beneficial holder obtains a "legal proxy" from the bank, broker, or other nominee.

If any nominations for Class D Directors had been received, holders of the Public Preferred Stock would have been eligible to vote at the Annual Meeting on the election of such Class D Directors and on no other matter before the Annual Meeting; however, no nominations for Class D Directors were received by the Company, and as a result the holders of Public Preferred Stock are not eligible to vote on any issue before the Annual Meeting.

Meeting Attendance. Registered holders of the Common Stock who plan to attend the meeting in person should mark the attendance box on their proxy card and bring the proxy card with them to the meeting. Beneficial owners of the Common Stock and the Public Preferred Stock that is held by a bank, broker or other nominee must provide adequate proof of ownership. In addition, due to security requirements at the Company's headquarters, personal identification will be required for admission to the Annual Meeting.

Revocation of Proxies. A registered holder of the Common Stock who has provided a proxy may revoke the proxy at any time before the underlying shares are voted at the Annual Meeting by:

(1)	Executing a proxy dated later than the most recent proxy given and mailing it to:

Corporate Secretary

Telos Corporation

19886 Ashburn Road

Ashburn, VA 20147

(2)	Appearing in person and voting using a ballot at the Annual Meeting; or

(3)	Filing an instrument of revocation with the Inspector of Elections at the Annual Meeting.

If shares of the Common Stock are held in the name of a bank, broker, or other nominee, the beneficial owner of those shares must contact the bank, broker, or other nominee in order to change a vote. The Inspector of Elections will record each vote according to the latest instructions received from the respective stockholder.

Election of Directors

The Company's Board of Directors is currently comprised of ten members. The Board had eleven members until November 2015 when Mr. William Dvoranchik passed away.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") requires the Company's directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of any equity securities of the Company. During 2015, the following person failed to file a Form 4 filing on a timely basis in connection with the purchase of stock through the Company's Shared Savings Plan.

•

Jefferson V. Wright: One Form 4 required to be filed on December 22, 2015 was filed on February 12, 2016.

To the best of the Company's knowledge, with the exception of the person named above, all required reports were filed on a timely basis.

Corporate Governance

John B. Wood is both the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Company's policy as to whether the roles of the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer should be separate is to adopt the practice that best serves the Company's needs at any particular time. The Board of Directors believes that combining the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions is currently the most effective leadership structure and is in the best interests of the Company's stockholders because of Mr. Wood's long tenure with the Company, including as the Chief Executive Officer, and his broad knowledge and experience with the Company's stockholders, partners, and vendors. The Board of Directors may decide to separate or combine the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, if appropriate, at any time in the future. The Company has no lead independent director.

The Company operates under a Proxy Agreement, which governs the relationship between the Company and certain of its foreign stockholders that, directly and indirectly, hold approximately 36% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Pursuant to such Proxy Agreement, a Proxy Board has been established, which consists of independent Board members Harris, Mahan, and Tuttle. However, since Adm. Tuttle is no longer standing for re-election, his position on the Proxy Board will be replaced with another qualified Board member upon approval by the parties to the Proxy Agreement. Under the Proxy Agreement, the Proxy Board has the authority to vote 15,801,802 shares of Class A Common Stock at the Annual Meeting.

The Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct applicable to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Controller. The Code of Ethics and Business Conduct is available on our website at www.telos.com. In the event that the Board of Directors amends our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct or grants a waiver from the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, the Company will provide timely notice of such amendment or waiver on its website.

Independence of Directors

The Company has adopted the director independence standards that are summarized below. The Company's director independence standards are based upon NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605. Pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(b)(1), a majority of directors of the Board will be independent. Pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2), a director will not be independent if,

(A) At any time during the past three years he was employed by the Company;

(B) He accepted, or has a family member who accepted, any compensation from the Company in excess of $120,000 during any period of twelve consecutive months within the three years preceding the determination of independence other than the following: (i) compensation for board or board committee service; (ii) compensation paid to a family member who is an employee (other than an executive officer) of the Company; or (iii) benefits under a tax-qualified retirement plan, or non-discretionary compensation;

(C) He is a family member of an individual who is, or at any time during the past three years was, employed by the Company as an executive officer;

(D) He is, or has a family member who is, a partner in, or a controlling shareholder or executive officer of, any organization to which the Company made, or from which the Company received, payments for property or services in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed 5% of the recipient's consolidated gross revenues for that year, or $200,000, whichever is more, other than the following: (i) payments arising solely from investments in the Company's securities; or (ii) payments under non-discretionary charitable contribution matching programs;

(E) He is, or has a family member who is, employed as an executive officer of another entity where at any time during the past three years any of the executive officers of the Company served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or

(F) He is, or has a family member who is, a current partner of the Company's outside auditor, or was a partner or employee of the Company's outside auditor who worked on the Company's audit at any time during any of the past three years.

Pursuant to the independence standards set forth above, the Board has determined that the following directors and nominees meet the Company's independence standards and therefore are independent: Bernard C. Bailey, David Borland, Bruce R. Harris, Charles S. Mahan, and Robert J. Marino. Based on these standards, the Board determined that the following directors are not independent: John W. Maluda and John B. Wood. Additionally, due to conflicts of interest, both Seth W. Hamot and Andrew R. Siegel were determined not to be independent.

Role in Risk Oversight

As part of its general responsibility to manage the Company's business, the Board of Directors has oversight responsibility with respect to risk management. The Board of Directors has delegated primary responsibility for risk oversight and the monitoring of the Company's significant areas of risk to the Audit Committee. In accordance with its charter, the Audit Committee discusses with management the Company's major policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The Audit Committee regularly reports the results of these discussions to the Board of Directors.

Meetings of the Board of Directors and Committees of the Board of Directors

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, the Board of Directors held five meetings. Each director attended at least 75%, in the aggregate, of all meetings of the Board and the respective committees of the Board on which they served in person or by phone, .

The Company encourages all directors to attend annual meetings of stockholders. Ten of the eleven directors, namely Messrs. Bailey, Borland, Dvoranchik, Hamot, Harris, Mahan, Maluda, Marino, Tuttle, and Wood, attended the Company's annual meeting of stockholders in 2015.

The Company has standing Audit, Management Development and Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee was established to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities for (1) the integrity of the Company's financial statements, (2) the Company's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (3) the independent registered public accounting firm's qualifications and independence, and (4) the performance of the Company's internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm. In 2015, the Audit Committee consisted of directors Bailey (chairman), Dvoranchik, and Mahan. On March 29, 2016, Mr. Marino became a member of the Audit Committee. In 2015, the Audit Committee met five times. The Board of Directors has adopted an Audit Committee charter, which is available on the Company's website at www.telos.com. The Board has determined that Mr. Bailey is an "audit committee financial expert" as defined by rules adopted by the SEC and is independent.

Management Development and Compensation Committee

The Management Development and Compensation Committee (the "Compensation Committee") was established for the purpose of reviewing, determining and approving all forms of compensation to be provided to the Company's executive officers and directors, and any stock compensation to be provided to all employees. In 2015, the Compensation Committee consisted of directors Borland, Dvoranchik (chairman), and Harris. The Compensation Committee met two times during the year 2015. On March 29, 2016, Mr. Marino became the chairman of the Compensation Committee. The Board of Directors has adopted a Compensation Committee charter, which is available on the Company's website at www.telos.com. The Board of Directors has adopted a Management Development and Compensation Committee charter, which is available on the Company's website at www.telos.com.

Neither the Compensation Committee nor management engaged a compensation consultant in 2015 to provide advice or recommendations on the amount or form of executive or director compensation.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the "Nominating Committee") was established to make recommendations regarding Board nominations and to monitor the implementation of corporate governance rules and regulations. The Nominating Committee consists of directors Borland (chairman), Mahan, Marino, Tuttle, and Wood. In 2015, the Nominating Committee did not meet in person and acted once by unanimous written consent without a meeting. The Board of Directors has adopted a Nominating Committee charter which is available on the Company's website at www.telos.com.

Board of Directors Nomination Process

The Nominating Committee identifies potential candidates for first-time nomination as a director by using a variety of sources such as recommendations from the Company's management, current Board members, stockholders, and contacts in organizations served by the Company. Stockholders may nominate potential candidates by following the procedure set forth in the Company's Bylaws. This process provides that, in order for nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder must deliver written notice to the Company's secretary at the Company's principal executive offices not less than sixty (60) days nor more than ninety (90) days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced by more than thirty (30) days or delayed by more than sixty (60) days from such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the ninetieth (90^th) day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the sixtieth (60^th) day prior to such annual meeting or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. The Nominating Committee will consider any director nominees submitted by stockholders in accordance with these procedures.

The Nominating Committee then conducts an initial review of the potential candidate's background, including whether he/she meets the minimum qualifications for Board members; whether the individual would be considered independent under the standards adopted by the Company and SEC rules; and whether the individual would meet any additional requirements imposed by law or regulation on members of the Audit and/or Compensation Committees of the Board. Among the requirements potential candidates should meet are the following: U.S. citizenship; eligibility for security clearance at a top secret level; ten (10) years of corporate or related business experience, preferably having served on the board of directors of a corporation; and familiarity with government contracts, the defense industry, and information technology and security. The evaluation process of a potential candidate's background will not be treated differently whether or not he/she was nominated by a stockholder, except for nominations received from holders of Public Preferred Stock, which are not subject to the Company's nomination process.

If the initial candidate review is satisfactory, the Nominating Committee will arrange an introductory meeting with the candidate and the committee's chairman, the Company's CEO, or other directors to determine the potential candidate's interest in serving on the Board. If the candidate is interested in serving on the Board and the Nominating Committee recommends further consideration, a comprehensive interview conducted by the Nominating Committee, the CEO, other members of the Board, and in some cases, key Company executives, follows. Upon successful conclusion of the review process, the Nominating Committee will present the candidate's name to the Board of Directors for nomination as a director and inclusion in the Company's Proxy Statement.

Stockholder Communications with Board of Directors

Stockholders wishing to communicate with the Board of Directors should send the communication by mail to the office of the Corporate Secretary (19886 Ashburn Road, Ashburn, VA 20147) who will forward such communication to the appropriate committee of the Board of Directors or to the individual director. There have been no changes in the procedures by which stockholders may recommend nominees to the Company's board of directors.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Our policies and practices with respect to related person transactions were adopted on October 25, 2007, and are available on our website at www.telos.com. Generally, any transaction between Telos and a related party in which the aggregate amount exceeds $120,000 is reviewed by the Audit Committee and subject to the ratification and approval of the Board of Directors. For purposes of this policy, a related person is any director or executive officer of Telos, any nominee for director, any holder of 5% or more of the Company's voting securities, any immediate family members of the foregoing persons, and any firm, corporation or other entity in which any of the foregoing persons is employed or is a partner or principal or in a similar position or in which such person has 10% or greater beneficial ownership interest.

Mr. Emmett Wood, the brother of our Chairman and CEO, has been an employee of the Company since 1996 and currently holds the position of Executive Vice President, Marketing & Strategy. The amounts paid to Mr. Emmett Wood as compensation for 2015, 2014, and 2013, were $305,346, $445,550, and $344,335, respectively. The Company and Mr. Emmett Wood entered into an Amended Employment Agreement on May 13, 2013. This agreement is substantially similar to the employment agreements between the Company and Mr. Williams, Mr. Wright and Ms. Nakazawa, also described under the caption "Executive Officer Employment Agreements" beginning on page 19. Mr. Emmett Wood owned 650,000 shares and 50,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, respectively, as of December 31, 2015.

On March 31, 2015, the Company entered into Subordinated Loan Agreements and Subordinated Promissory Notes ("Notes") with affiliates of Mr. John R. C. Porter (referred to collectively as "Porter"). Mr. Porter and Toxford Corporation, of which Mr. Porter is the sole shareholder, own 39.3% of our Class A Common Stock. Under the terms of the Notes, Porter loaned the Company $2,500,000 on or about March 31, 2015. Telos also entered into a Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement with Porter and Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC ("Wells Fargo"), in which the Notes are fully subordinated to the Wells Fargo senior credit facility and payments under the Notes are permitted only if certain conditions specified by Wells Fargo are met. According to the terms of the Notes, the outstanding principal sum would bear interest at the fixed rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum which would be payable in arrears in cash on the 20th day of each May, August, November and February, with the first interest payment date on August 20, 2015. The Notes do not call for amortization payments and are unsecured. The unpaid principal, together with interest, is due and payable in full on July 1, 2017. The Notes, in whole or in part, may be repaid at any time without premium or penalty. The outstanding principal sum under the Notes, as of December 31, 2015, was $2,500,000, and the Company accrued $229,000 of interest to the Porter Notes in 2015.

Legal Proceedings With 10% Beneficial Owner of the Company's Stock and With Directors

Costa Brava Partnership III, L.P.

As previously reported, on October 17, 2005, Costa Brava Partnership III, L.P. ("Costa Brava"), a holder of Public Preferred Stock, instituted litigation against the Company and certain past and present directors and officers in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland (the "Circuit Court"). A second holder of the Company's Public Preferred Stock, Wynnefield Small Cap Value, L.P. ("Wynnefield"), subsequently intervened as a co-Plaintiff (Costa Brava and Wynnefield are hereinafter referred to as "Plaintiffs"). On February 27, 2007, Plaintiffs added, as an additional defendant, Mr. John R. C. Porter, a holder of the Company's common stock.

In the litigation, Plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the Company and its officers and directors engaged in tactics to avoid paying dividends on the Public Preferred Stock, that the Company made improper bonus payments or awards to officers and directors, that certain former and present officers and directors breached legal duties or the standard of care that they owed the Company, that the Company improperly paid consulting fees to and engaged in loan transactions with Mr. Porter, that the Company failed to improve on the Company's purported insolvency, that the Company failed to redeem the Public Preferred Stock as allegedly required by the Company's charter, and shareholder oppression against Mr. Porter.

On December 22, 2005, the Company's Board of Directors established a special litigation committee ("Special Litigation Committee"), composed of certain independent directors, to review and evaluate the matters raised in the litigation. On July 20, 2007, the Special Litigation Committee, in its final report, concluded that the available evidence did not support Plaintiffs' derivative claims and that it was not in the best interests of the Company to pursue such claims in the litigation. On August 24, 2007, the Company moved to dismiss Plaintiffs' derivative claims based upon the report and to dismiss all remaining claims for failure to state a claim. Following an evidentiary hearing, the Circuit Court dismissed all derivative claims based upon the recommendation of the Special Litigation Committee on January 7, 2008.

On February 12, 2008, the Plaintiffs filed a Third Amended Complaint that included both new counts and previously dismissed counts. The Company moved to dismiss or strike the Third Amended Complaint and, on April 15, 2008, the Circuit Court issued an order dismissing with prejudice all counts in the Third Amended Complaint that were not previously disposed of by motion or stipulation. On December 2, 2008, the Company filed a motion for voluntary dismissal of its counterclaim against Plaintiffs (for their interference with the Company's relationship with Wells Fargo) without prejudice. The Circuit Court granted that motion, over Plaintiffs' opposition, on January 23, 2009.

Following Plaintiffs' appeal of the dismissal of their derivative claims and shareholder oppression claim, on September 7, 2012, the Court of Special Appeals of Maryland ruled that the Circuit Court applied an incorrect standard of review to evaluate the conclusions of the Special Litigation Committee. The Court of Special Appeals held that the Circuit Court's dismissal of a shareholder oppression claim (asserted against Mr. Porter) raised an issue of first impression under Maryland law and required further briefing in the Circuit Court. The Court of Special Appeals vacated the decision of the Circuit Court that had been appealed, and remanded the case for further consideration and proceedings.

On October 24, 2012, the Company filed a petition for writ of certiorari in the Court of Appeals of Maryland, which was denied on January 22, 2013.

On remand, the Circuit Court held a status and scheduling conference on July 26, 2013, as a result of which the Circuit Court issued a memorandum to counsel setting a briefing schedule to address the motion filed by the Company and other defendants to dismiss or otherwise dispose of the derivative claims as a result of the findings of the Special Litigation Committee in its final report of July 20, 2007. On November 1, 2013, the Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the derivative claims under the standard of review dictated by the opinion of the Court of Special Appeals. Plaintiffs filed their Opposition to the Motion on December 23, 2013, and Defendants filed their Reply on January 23, 2014. A hearing on the Motion to Dismiss was held on April 24, 2014 in the Circuit Court. No decision has been rendered on the Company's Motion to Dismiss or otherwise dispose of the derivative claims, and the matter remains pending.

On September 17, 2013, the Plaintiffs filed a request for an entry of an order for default as to Mr. Porter, which was denied by the Circuit Court on November 8, 2013. Mr. Porter ultimately filed a motion to dismiss the claim against him on May 13, 2014, raising multiple grounds. No decision has been rendered on Mr. Porter's motion to dismiss, and the matter remains pending.

As of December 31, 2015, Costa Brava and Wynnefield own 12.7% and 17.3%, respectively, of the outstanding Public Preferred Stock.

No material developments occurred in this litigation in 2015.

At this stage of the litigation, it is impossible to reasonably determine the degree of probability related to Plaintiffs' success in relation to any of their assertions in the litigation. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of the case, the Company and its present and former officers and directors strenuously deny Plaintiffs' allegations and continue to vigorously defend the matter and oppose all relief sought by Plaintiffs.

Hamot et al. v. Telos Corporation

As previously reported, since August 2, 2007, Messrs. Seth W. Hamot and Andrew R. Siegel, principals of Costa Brava Partnership III L.P. ("Costa Brava") and Class D Directors of the Company ("Class D Directors"), have been involved in litigation against the Company in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland (the "Circuit Court"). The Class D Directors initially alleged that certain documents and records had not been promptly provided to them and were necessary to fulfill their duties as directors of the Company. Subsequently, the Class D Directors further alleged that the Company had failed to follow certain provisions concerning the noticing of Board committee meetings and the recording of Board meeting minutes and, additionally, that Mr. Wood's service as both CEO and Chairman of the Board was improper and impermissible under the Company's Bylaws. The Class D Directors did not seek damages in connection with their books and records claims.

By way of preliminary injunctions entered on August 28, 2007 and September 24, 2007, the Circuit Court ordered that the Class D Directors are entitled to documents in response to reasonable requests for information pertinent and necessary to perform their duties as members of the Board but, in light of the Costa Brava shareholder litigation, the Company is entitled to designate certain documents as "confidential" or "highly confidential" and to withhold certain documents from the Class D Directors based upon the attorney work product doctrine or attorney-client privilege. Pursuant to the preliminary injunctions, the Class D Directors are also entitled to receive written responses to requests for Board of Directors or Board committee minutes within seven days of any such requests and copies of such minutes within fifteen days of any such requests, as well as written responses to all other requests for information and/or documents related to their duties as directors within seven days of such requests, and all Board of Directors appropriate information and/or documents within thirty days of any such requests.

On April 23, 2008, the Company filed a counterclaim against the Class D Directors for money damages and preliminary and injunctive relief based upon the Class D Directors' interference with, and improper influence of, the Company's independent auditors regarding, among other things, a specific accounting treatment. On June 27, 2008, the Circuit Court granted the Company's motion for preliminary injunction and enjoined the Class D Directors from contacting the Company's auditors until the completion of the Company's Form 10-K for the preceding year. This preliminary injunction expired by its own terms and an appeal from that order was held to be moot by the Court of Special Appeals of Maryland.

On April 12, 2010, the Class D Directors filed a motion for the advancement of legal fees and expenses incurred in defense of the Company's counterclaim. On November 3, 2011, the Circuit Court denied the Plaintiffs' motion, as well as the Plaintiffs' motion for partial summary judgment and request for attorneys' fees. On May 21, 2012, the Circuit Court denied Plaintiffs' motion for reconsideration of the same.

Trial on both the Class D Directors' books and records claims and the Company's counterclaims for damages related to the auditor interference commenced on July 5, 2013, and continued on several days in July 2013. The evidentiary portion of the trial concluded on August 1, 2013, and post-trial briefing concluded on September 16, 2013. The court decision on these matters is still pending and no material developments occurred in this litigation in 2015.

At this stage of the litigation it is impossible to reasonably determine the degree of probability related to the Class D Directors' success in any of their assertions and claims, or whether such success would entitle them to monetary relief, although the Company notes that Class D Directors did not seek damages as a part of their books and records claim. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of these proceedings, the Company and its officers and directors strenuously deny the Class D Directors' claims, and will vigorously defend the matter, and continue to oppose the relief sought.

Report of the Audit Committee

The Audit Committee oversees the Company's financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including internal control over financial reporting. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, including the quality and acceptability of accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Audit Committee discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm, who is responsible for expressing an opinion on conformity of those audited financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the firm's judgment as to the quality and acceptability of the Company's accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm under the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") Auditing Standards No. 16 (Communications with Audit Committees). In addition, the Audit Committee discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the firm's independence from management and the Company and received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent accountant required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. The Audit Committee also considered whether the provision of non-audit related services by the independent registered public accounting firm was compatible with maintaining the firm's independence and found it to be acceptable.

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Compensation of Executive Officers and Directors

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Management Development and Compensation Committee ("Compensation Committee"), which is responsible for the execution and adherence to our compensation philosophy, implemented a new compensation philosophy in 2014 that remained in effect during 2015. This compensation program is designed to support the achievement of our business and financial goals.

The primary objectives of the compensation program are:

·	To attract and retain highly talented and results-oriented key employees;

·	To secure the future performance of services of those employees;

·	To encourage key employees to put forth maximum efforts for both the short-term and long-term success of the Company;

·	To drive achievement of the Company's long-term growth and profitability objectives;

·	To reward performance; and

·	To achieve increased stockholder value.

The individual components of the compensation program (base salary, incentive cash compensation, equity incentive compensation, and perquisites) are designed to meet these objectives and together are intended to be competitive in the marketplace. The overall compensation package is, however, based on the following considerations:

·	Compensation should consist of fixed and at-risk compensation, with the at-risk compensation encouraging improved annual and long-term performance.

·	Compensation should be a mix of annual and long-term compensation, with the long-term compensation encouraging retention and attainment of long-term performance goals.

Compensation should be a mix of cash and equity, with cash rewarding achievement of goals and equity encouraging retention and long-term performance. Additionally, the Compensation Committee continues to believe in equity ownership by the management team to align the interests of management with our long-term corporate performance.

We held our second advisory vote on executive compensation, commonly referred to as "say on pay," at our 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The holders of our Common Stock approved the "say on pay" resolution presented at the 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders with 74.3% of the votes cast to approve the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in our proxy statement relating to that annual meeting. The next advisory vote on executive compensation will take place at the 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Mr. John Wood has no role in the establishment of his individual compensation. Except as set forth below in the description of the incentive compensation program, the compensation program calls for Mr. Wood to propose to the Compensation Committee the compensation for Messrs. Edward Williams, Jefferson Wright, Brendan Malloy and Ms. Nakazawa in 2015. Then the Compensation Committee will review these recommendations and, following discussions with Mr. Wood, determine the appropriate compensation for those executives. In addition, the compensation plan calls for Mr. Wood to determine the compensation of the other senior officers consistent with the philosophy and objectives described above.

Base Salary

We provide our executive officers and employees with a base salary to compensate them for services rendered during the fiscal year. The relative levels of base salary for executive officers are designed to reflect each executive officer's professional expertise and scope of responsibility and accountability within the Company, the Company's financial performance and the named executive officer's individual performance. Base salaries are generally established at levels sufficient to attract and retain an effective management team when considered in connection with the performance-based components of our overall compensation program. In 2015, there were no changes in the base salary of the named executive officers.

Incentive Cash Compensation

On March 27, 2014, the Compensation Committee approved and ratified the Telos Corporation Senior Officer Incentive Program (the "Plan"). The purpose of the Plan is to grant cash bonus awards to certain of our key senior officers, which includes our named executive officers, in order to provide eligible officers with an incentive to put forth maximum efforts for both the short-term and long-term success of the Company and to drive achievement of our long-term growth and profitability objectives. The 2015 awards under the Plan provided eligible participants the opportunity to earn an incentive award based upon the Company achieving a defined amount of enterprise target EBITDA for the year and achievement of management business objectives established by the Compensation Committee (the "MBO Bonus") and an incentive award based upon achievement of our three-year strategic growth plan (the "Strategic Growth Bonus"). The Plan consists of elements for both short-term and long-term goals, as well as short-term and long-term incentives. The 2015 awards required that the Company achieve an enterprise target EBITDA performance goal before the payment of any incentive compensation under the MBO Bonus Plan. Once the Company achieves the enterprise target EBITDA performance goal for the applicable year, the Compensation Committee would have evaluated other factors to determine the incentive compensation. Under the Plan, 60% would have been payable in lump sum in early 2016. The remaining 40% would have been payable in equal installments (without interest) on the last day of each of the eight calendar quarters of 2016 and 2017 unless the employment of such named executive officer is terminated for any reason (other than death or disability) prior to the next scheduled quarterly payment date. The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, and determinations by the Compensation Committee are final, conclusive and binding on all parties. Any sums payable under the Plan are subject to the Company having sufficient cash and liquidity to pay the bonuses.

For 2015, the Compensation Committee established a total bonus pool of $7 million for the MBO Bonus and a pre-existing bonus plan for other employees who are not participants in the Plan. This amount is the same as the budgeted bonus pool of 2014. The MBO Bonus budgeted amount did not change from 2014 and was approximately $4 million. The $3 million bonus pool, payable quarterly, awards division business line management and general and administrative senior managers and their respective employees based on achievement of quarterly targets. The 2015 annual bonus targets for Messrs. John Wood, Williams, Wright, Malloy and Ms. Nakazawa were: $1,100,000, $550,000, $425,000, $330,000, and $425,000. In setting these targets, the Compensation Committee took into account each officer's role and contribution to the Company's performance, internal equity, the amounts of the annual bonuses paid to the officer in prior years, and, in the case of officers other than Mr. John Wood, the recommendations of Mr. John Wood.

The performance goals established under the Plan for the MBO Bonus for the 2015 performance period are directly related to the objectives contained in our 2015 budget and our long-term strategic plan. The performance goals based on the strategic plan vary according to business unit, business circumstances, and business function. Although certain executive officers have primary responsibility over the achievement of specific performance goals, the evaluation of each executive officer by the Compensation Committee partially takes into account the overall achievement of all of the performance goals. The Compensation Committee believes this approach aligns the interests of the executive officers and emphasizes teamwork, which is consistent with the Company's core values. Examples of specific performance goals based on the strategic plan include, but are not limited to, the following:

·	Establish a formal process for gathering ideas and spurring innovation throughout the company.

·	Expand portfolio of categorized intellectual property.

·	Ensure that the product management function throughout Telos is continually creating/updating market and competitive analysis.

·	Attainment of certain business development goals.

The Compensation Committee established an annual enterprise EBITDA target of $4.6 million for the 2015 awards, and the Company failed to achieve this enterprise EBITDA target in 2015. As a result, none of the named executive officers received an MBO Bonus under the Plan for 2015.

The Plan also includes a target Strategic Growth Bonus component for participants. During 2015, each of the named executive officers were granted the opportunity to receive a Strategic Growth Bonus for the performance period beginning January 1, 2015, and ending December 31, 2017, which replaced the opportunity to receive a Strategic Growth Bonus granted in 2014 for the performance period beginning January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2017. The amount of each award if earned is two and one-half times the amount of each participant's 2015 MBO Bonus target amount, and the participant's entitlement to payment of the target amount will be based upon successful achievement by the Company of a three-year aggregate EBITDA goal of $60 million during the performance period before taking into account the payment of the Strategic Growth Bonuses. All Strategic Growth Bonuses are payable within two and one-half months following the end of the three-year performance period. If a participant's employment with the Company terminates for any reason (other than death or disability) prior to the last day of the three-year performance period, the participant's right to payment of a Strategic Growth Bonus for the performance period will be forfeited in its entirety. Upon the termination of a participant's employment by reason of death or disability, the participant will forfeit as of the termination of employment a portion of the Strategic Growth Bonus equal to the amount of the Strategic Growth Bonus initially granted to the participant for that performance period multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which will be the number of full calendar months from the date of the participant's cessation of employment to the end of the performance period, and the denominator of which will be the number of months representing the entire performance period (provided that the Compensation Committee is authorized to declare that a lesser percentage of the Strategic Growth Bonus will be forfeited). With respect to the portion of the Strategic Growth Bonus that is not so forfeited, the performance period will continue and the remaining percentage of the Strategic Growth Bonus that is earned or forfeited will be determined based upon the extent to which the applicable performance goals for such performance period have been achieved or exceeded. In the case of a change in control of the Company, all performance periods will be deemed to have ended as of the end of the most recent quarterly accounting period prior to the date of the change in control, all performance goals necessary to earn the maximum bonus for each performance period will be deemed to have been achieved, and the full maximum bonus will be paid to a participant of his designated beneficiary, if applicable, in a single-sum payment on the date of the change in control.

As disclosed in the Company's proxy statement for the 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, each of the named executive officers achieved the performance goals for each of their respective MBO Bonus awards for the first three quarters of 2014. As a result, each of the named executive officers were paid 60% of the quarterly payments during the first three quarters of 2014. The remaining 40% of those amounts are payable to each of the named executive officers in equal installments (without interest) on the last day of each of the eight calendar quarters immediately following 2014 unless the employment of such named executive officer is terminated for any reason (other than death or disability) prior to the next scheduled quarterly payment date. The employment of none of the named executed officers was terminated during 2015. As a result, Messrs. John Wood, Williams, Wright, and Malloy and Ms. Nakazawa earned the following amounts, respectively, of their 2014 MBO Bonus award in 2015: $165,000, $82,500, $63,750, $49,500, and $63,750. The Compensation Committee also awarded a bonus in the amount of $100,000 in 2015 outside of the Plan to Ms. Nakazawa in recognition of Ms. Nakazawa's exceptional performance in 2015. As of the date of this proxy statement, the Company has not paid any of these awards.

Equity Compensation

The Board adopted the Telos Corporation 2013 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan ("2013 Plan") on March 28, 2013, and it was subsequently approved by the holders of our Class A and Class B Common Stock at the Annual Meeting on May 13, 2013. The purpose of the 2013 Plan is to enhance the Company's ability to attract, motivate and retain highly qualified employees and to improve the business results and earnings of the Company by providing such persons an opportunity to acquire or increase a direct proprietary interest in the operations and future success of the Company.

No grants were made in 2015 under the 2013 Plan.

Perquisites

We provide certain perquisites to our executive officers in order to allow the executives to work more efficiently and to help us remain competitive by retaining talented and dedicated executives. These perquisites are limited to reimbursement for golf club membership, home office expenses, and, in certain circumstances, commuting costs. The Compensation Committee believes that the perquisites are consistent with our overall compensation program. See "All Other Compensation" of the Summary Compensation Table below for the amounts of the perquisites provided to the named executive officers.

Executive Officer Employment Agreements

We are a party to employment agreements with the following named executive officers: Mr. John B. Wood, President, CEO, Chairman and Director; Mr. Edward J. Williams, Executive Vice President and COO; Ms. Michele Nakazawa, Executive Vice President and CFO; Mr. Jefferson V. Wright, Executive Vice President and General Counsel; and Mr. Brendan D. Malloy, Senior Vice President, General Manager, Cyber Operations & Defense. All of the agreements provide for payment of a base salary, bonus, eligibility for stock option and restricted stock grants under our stock option and restricted stock plans, and vacation days. Each of the agreements also provides for eligibility to participate in all plans that we maintain for our salaried senior executives, including, without limitation, pension, profit-sharing or other retirement plans, life, accident, disability, medical, hospital or similar group insurance programs and any other benefit plan, subject to the normal terms and conditions of such plans.

According to the employment agreements, in the case of termination of the employment agreement for cause, or if the executive terminates the agreement for any reason (after providing 30 days prior written notice to us of such termination), such executive would only be entitled to receive the following:

·	a lump-sum payment equivalent to the remaining unpaid portion of the executive's salary for the period ending on the date of termination,

·	lump-sum payment for all accrued and unused paid time off,

·	any bonus which has been earned by the respective executive, but which remains unpaid as of the date of the executive's termination of employment, at such time and in such manner as if the executive had continued to be employed by us, and

·	any other payments or benefits to be provided by us to the executive pursuant to any employee benefit plans or arrangements adopted by the Company (to the extent such benefits are earned and vested or are required by law to be offered) through the date of termination.

In the case of termination of the respective executive's employment without cause, or due to disability or death, the employment agreements provide for, in addition to the amounts payable under the preceding paragraph:

·	a monthly payment equivalent to base salary then in effect over a period of 24 months in the case of Mr. Wood, and 18 months then in effect for Messrs. Williams, Malloy and Wright and Ms. Nakazawa,

·	immediate vesting of the unvested portion of any outstanding stock options and any outstanding shares of restricted stock,

·	the cash equivalent of premium payments for continued coverage under the medical, dental, short and long-term disability, and life insurance and other similar plans equal to 24 months in the case of Mr. Wood, and 18 months in the case of Messrs. Williams, Malloy and Wright and Ms. Nakazawa,

the cash equivalent of the employer matching contribution as if the executive was still a plan participant under the Company's 401(k) plan that would otherwise have been contributed on the executive's behalf, based on certain assumptions, for a period of 24 months in the case of Mr. Wood, and 18 months in the case of Messrs. Williams, Malloy and Wright and Ms. Nakazawa, and

·	payment of premiums to continue the Executive Life Policy, in which the executive is the holder of the policy, for 24 months from the date of termination for Mr. Wood, and 18 months in the case of Messrs. Williams and Wright, and Ms. Nakazawa.

Under the agreements, termination by the Company "without cause" means involuntary termination at our discretion which is not based on cause, death, or disability. "Cause" is defined as gross negligence or willful and continued failure by the executive to substantially perform his duties as an employee of ours (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness) or the executive's dishonesty, fraudulent misrepresentation, willful misconduct, malfeasance, violation of fiduciary duty relating to our business, or conviction of a felony. The executive is deemed "disabled" if he or she is eligible for disability benefits under our long-term disability plan, or has a physical or mental disability which renders the executive incapable, after reasonable accommodation, of performing substantially all of executive's duties under the agreement for a period of 180 consecutive or non-consecutive days in any 12-month period.

Upon a "change in control" (as defined in the employment agreements) of the Company, each of the executives would be entitled to a lump-sum payment in the following amounts in addition to the amounts payable to the executive if the Company terminates the agreement for cause or the executive terminates the agreement for any reason:

in the case of Mr. Wood, (1) the amount of monthly salary that Mr. Wood was being paid as of the date of his termination of employment times 24 months, plus (2) two times the annual average of the bonuses earned or to be earned for the current year (i.e., the year in which the change of control occurs) and the two prior years;

in the case of Mr. Williams, Mr. Wright and Ms. Nakazawa, (1) the amount of monthly salary that such executive was being paid as of the date of his or her termination of employment times 18 months, plus (2) one and one-half (1.5) times the annual average of the bonuses earned or to be earned for the current year and the two prior years; and

·	in the case of Mr. Malloy, the amount of monthly salary that such executive was being paid as of the date of his termination of employment times 18 months.

For purposes of calculating the amounts payable to Mr. Wood, Mr. Williams, Mr. Wright, and Ms. Nakazawa, the bonus amount for the current year is equal to the amount earned or scheduled to be earned as if the bonus targets set in the bonus plan have been met. In addition to these payments, the executives would also be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to (1) the cash equivalent of 24 months, in the case of Mr. Wood, or 18 months, in the case of Messrs. Williams, Wright, and Malloy and Ms. Nakazawa, of continued coverage under the medical, dental, short and long-term disability, and life insurance and other similar plans, (2) the cash equivalent of the employer matching contribution as if the executive was still a plan participant under the Company's 401(k) plan that would otherwise have been contributed on the executive's behalf, based on certain assumptions, for a period of 24 months, in the case of Mr. Wood, or 18 months, in the case of Messrs. Williams, Malloy and Wright and Ms. Nakazawa, and (3) payment of premiums to continue the Executive Life Policy, in which the executive is the holder of the policy, for 24 months from the date of termination for Mr. Wood, and 18 months in the case of Messrs. Williams, Wright and Ms. Nakazawa.

For purposes of the employment agreements, a "change in control" means an occasion upon which (1) any one person, or more than one person acting as a group (other than a member of the Board of Directors or fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or a corporation controlled by the Company) directly or indirectly acquires securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition of the Company's securities by such person or persons, or (2) during any period of twelve consecutive months, a majority of the members of the Board of Directors is replaced by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors before the date of the appointment or election, or (3) any one person or more than one person acting as a group acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) all, or substantially all, of the Company's assets. The foregoing lump-sum payments will be made contemporaneously with the consummation of the transaction or the election of directors that constitutes the change in control.

Other Employment Benefits

We maintain employee benefit and perquisite programs for our executive officers and other employees. We have no current plans to provide any other additional benefits for our executive officers. We believe that the benefits provided are competitive and consistent with industry practice.

Welfare Benefits. We have broad-based health, dental, vision, life and disability benefit programs that are available to all employees on an equal basis.

401(k) Savings Plan ("Telos Shared Savings Plan"). We sponsor a defined contribution employee savings plan which enables employees to contribute a certain percentage of their base salary to their savings plan accounts on a pre-tax basis, subject to federal tax limitations under the Internal Revenue Code. In previous years, we matched one half of employee contributions to the Telos Shared Savings Plan up to a maximum of 2% of such employee's eligible yearly base salary. Participant contributions vest immediately, and Company contributions vest at the rate of 20% for each year, with full vesting occurring after completion of five years of service. In 2015, the Company did not provide any matching to the employee contributions.

¹As disclosed in the Compensation Discussion & Analysis on page 18, the amounts listed for 2014 represent 60% of the amounts awarded under the Telos Corporation Senior Officer Incentive Program in 2014.

The amount for Ms. Nakazawa also includes a $100,000 bomus awarded outside of the Plan in recognition of Ms. Nakazawa's exceptional performance in 2015.

¹Represents the amount of the Strategic Growth Bonus awards granted to the named executive officers under the Telos Corporation Senior Officer Incentive Program for the performance period beginning January 1, 2015, and ending December 31, 2017 as more fully described in the Compensation Discussion & Analysis on pages 17-18. The amount of each award if earned is two and one-half times the amount of each participant's 2015 MBO Bonus target amount, and the participant's entitlement to payment of the target amount will be based upon successful achievement by the Company of a three-year aggregate EBITDA goal of $60 million during the performance period before taking into account the payment of the Strategic Growth Bonuses. All Strategic Growth Bonuses will be paid within two and one-half months following the end of the three-year performance period. All bonus payments are subject to the Company having sufficient cash and liquidity. If a participant's employment with the Company terminates for any reason (other than death or disability) prior to the last day of the three-year performance period, the participant's right to payment of a Strategic Growth Bonus for the performance period will be forfeited in its entirety. Upon the termination of a participant's employment by reason of death or disability, the participant will forfeit as of the termination of employment a portion of the Strategic Growth Bonus equal to the amount of the Strategic Growth Bonus initially granted to the participant for that performance period multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which will be the number of full calendar months from the date of the participant's cessation of employment to the end of the performance period, and the denominator of which will be the number of months representing the entire performance period (provided that the Compensation Committee is authorized to declare that a lesser percentage of the Strategic Growth Bonus will be forfeited). With respect to the portion of the Strategic Growth Bonus that is not so forfeited, the performance period will continue and the remaining percentage of the Strategic Growth Bonus that is earned or forfeited will be determined based upon the extent to which the applicable performance goals for such performance period have been achieved or exceeded. In the case of a change in control of the Company, all performance periods will be deemed to have ended as of the end of the most recent quarterly accounting period prior to the date of the change in control, all performance goals necessary to earn the maximum bonus for each performance period will be deemed to have been achieved, and the full maximum bonus will be paid to a participant of his designated beneficiary, if applicable, in a single-sum payment on the date of the change in control.

Upon the termination of a participant's employment by reason of death or disability, the participant will forfeit as of the termination of employment a portion of the Strategic Growth Bonus equal to the amount of the Strategic Growth Bonus initially granted to the participant for that performance period multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which will be the number of full calendar months from the date of the participant's cessation of employment to the end of the performance period, and the denominator of which will be the number of months representing the entire performance period (provided that the Compensation Committee is authorized to declare that a lesser percentage of the Strategic Growth Bonus will be forfeited). With respect to the portion of the Strategic Growth Bonus that is not so forfeited, the performance period will continue and the remaining percentage of the Strategic Growth Bonus that is earned or forfeited will be determined based upon the extent to which the applicable performance goals for such performance period have been achieved or exceeded. That amount is not reflected in the table above.

Non-Competition, Confidentiality, and Non-Solicitation Provisions

Pursuant to their respective employment agreements, Mr. Williams, Ms. Nakazawa, Mr. Malloy and Mr. Wright are subject to non-competition, confidentiality, and non-solicitation provisions which are applicable to each executive during their respective employment terms and for a period of 18 months subsequent to the date of any termination.

Compensation of Directors

Effective January 1, 2010, the Board of Directors adopted a structure for the annual compensation of the Board members which provides for the following annual compensation: $20,000 basic annual retainer plus the following annual fees for committee chairmen and members: $35,000 for the Audit Committee chairman; $25,000 for the Management Development and Compensation Committee chairman; $20,000 for the respective chairman of the Strategy Committee and the Government Security Committee; $15,000 for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee chairman; $20,000 for the members of the Audit Committee; $15,000 for the respective members of the Strategy Committee and the Government Security Committee; and $10,000 for the respective members of the Management Development and Compensation Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and the Proxy Board. In February 2011, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Company made a one-time grant of 20,000 shares of restricted stock to each of the following directors: Messrs. Bailey, Borland, Dvoranchik, Harris, Mahan, and Tuttle. The shares of restricted stock granted in February 2011 vest in four equal installments. The first installment vested on February 11, 2011, the grant date; the subsequent installments vest on the first, second and third anniversary date of the grant.

General Maluda, through his entity, JK Maluda LLC, and the Company entered into a consulting agreement under which General Maluda provides certain consulting services to the Company. Under the agreement, General Maluda received $10,000 per month in compensation, for a total of $120,000 per year through December 31, 2012. As of January 1, 2013, the compensation under the agreement was increased to $17,000 per month, for a total of $204,000 per year. The agreement, as originally structured, contemplated that General Maluda would be used on a part-time basis to travel and facilitate meetings for the Company. However, the Company has come to rely on General Maluda more extensively than expected and therefore was utilizing his services on a full-time basis. His extensive business relationships were deemed to be valuable to the continued growth and success of the Company. Therefore, his compensation was increased in recognition of his continuing valued services.

The following table summarizes the director compensation paid during the year ended December 31, 2015, other than Mr. John Wood whose compensation is described in this document:
