URS REAUTHORIZES STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – March 1, 2010 – URS Corporation (NYSE: URS) today announced that on February 26, 2010, its Board of Directors approved an extension of the Company’s common stock repurchase program.  The program, which expired on January 1, 2010, is designed to offset the earnings per share dilution that results from the issuance of additional shares under the Company’s equity incentive and employee stock purchase plans.
 
Under the extended program, URS can repurchase up to one million shares of the Company’s common stock plus the cumulative number of additional shares issued or deemed issued under the Company’s equity incentive and employee stock purchase programs for the period from January 2, 2010 through December 28, 2012 (excluding shares issued upon the exercise of options issued prior to 2010).  The share repurchases will be made from time-to-time at the Company’s discretion in the open market or privately negotiated transactions as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements, and subject to market conditions and other factors.  The Board of Directors may modify, suspend, extend or terminate the program at any time.
