ATS Corporation Announces Successful Completion of Early Warrant Exercise Program
ATS Corporation Announces Successful Completion of Early Warrant Exercise Program

ATS Corporation (“ATSC” or the “Company”) (OTCBB:ATCT), a leading information technology company that delivers innovative technology solutions to government and commercial organizations, announced today the successful completion of its early warrant exercise program, which was designed to reduce the number of outstanding warrants. The program was conducted pursuant to a tender offer which expired on May 16, 2008, at 5 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time.

Under the tender offer, a total of 33,400,020 warrants were exercised (approximately 92% of the 36,380,195 publicly traded warrants issued in the initial public offering of our predecessor, Federal Services Acquisition Corporation). This consisted of 33,073,703 warrants tendered for cashless exercise in exchange for 2,645,896 shares of common stock (on the basis of 12.5 warrants for 1 share of common stock), and 326,317 warrants exercised by payment of a reduced cash price of $2.25 per share. As a result of the exercise of warrants, approximately 2,972,213 new shares of common stock were issued.

Following the program, ATSC will have approximately 22,312,246 shares of common stock outstanding. The outstanding warrants that were not exercised will retain their original terms that existed prior to the tender offer.

“The offer’s success has allowed us to greatly reduce the number of warrants outstanding, which was our goal,” said Dr. Edward H. Bersoff, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of ATSC. “We are pleased that our warrant holders understood the importance of simplifying our capital structure.”

CRT Capital Group LLC acted as dealer manager in connection with the warrant offer, and Morrow & Company, LLC acted as the information agent.

This news release is merely a notification of the results of the tender offer and is neither an offer to sell nor solicitation of an offer to buy any securities. The tender offer was made only through an Offer Letter dated April 8, 2008 and related materials.
