Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On October 1, 2008, Alion Science and Technology Corporation ("Alion" or the "Company") filed a current report on Form 8-K to report the September 30, 2008 sale of approximately $2.8 million of common stock to the Alion Science and Technology Corporation Employee Ownership, Savings and Investment Trust (the "Trust"). The Company sold approximately 69,568 shares to the Trust at $38.35 per share for aggregate proceeds of approximately $2.7 million, the amount it actually received from the Trust. The Company issued approximately 123,564 additional shares to the Trust, at an average price per share of $38.35 as a contribution to the employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP") component of the Alion Science and Technology Corporation Employee Ownership, Savings and Investment Plan (the "KSOP"). The shares of common stock were offered to the Trust pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.





Item 8.01 Other Events.

The KSOP trustee, State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "Trustee"), retained an independent third-party valuation firm to help it determine a value for Alion’s common stock as of September 30, 2008. In its analysis, the valuation firm used discounted cash flows, public company market multiples and transaction values and multiples for acquired companies similar to Alion. The Trustee determined an offering price of $38.35 per share for Alion’s common stock as of September 30, 2008. The $38.35 share price will remain in effect until March 31, 2009, the next scheduled valuation date at the end of the Company’s standard six-month valuation period.

The following key factors contributed to the Trustee’s decision to select $38.35 as the price per share. Alion’s revenue for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008 was substantially the same as its revenue for the twelve months ended March 31, 2008. The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008 was lower than its Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months ended March 31, 2008. Financial projections used in the September 30, 2008 valuation analysis were lower than the projections used in the March 31, 2008 valuation analysis. The fair market value of the Company’s debt was lower at September 30, 2008 compared with March 31, 2008 primarily due to the repayment of debt and the improvement in cash collections.

The valuation firm prepared a written report, exclusively for the Trustee’s use in administering the ESOP. The report is subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications stated therein and in the retainer agreement between the valuation firm, the Trustee and the Company. The valuation firm relied on the accuracy and completeness of the information it reviewed, including financial projections prepared by the Company’s management. There is no assurance that, with respect to future valuations, the valuation firm used or any other fin ancial adviser the Trustee might choose would utilize the same processes or methods in future valuations of Alion common stock or that such advisor(s) would reach conclusions similar to those contained in the current report.
