11 Strategy to Achieve Consistent, Profitable Growth In 2009 Federal Signal launched a two-pronged strategy to deliver consistent, profitable growth and to drive stockholder value: Increase margins and extract efficiencies from the Company's legacy businesses and streamline the business portfolio Drive growth through the Company's Public Safety Systems platform - - capitalize on growing global market for public safety and intelligent transportation systems

12 I. Improve Margins and Extract Efficiencies Environmental Solutions Group (ESG): Streamline product offering Reduce product design costs Leverage cost efficiencies of single IT system implementation Safety and Security Systems Group (SSG): Outsource non-core manufacturing to reduce footprint Consolidate excess capacity Simplify business structure Utilize China operation as a base for low cost sources and export volume Bronto: Build on recent margin improvement efforts

13 II. Drive Growth Through Public Safety Systems Platform Why Public Safety Systems? Global Growth - rising customer acceptance and government funding FSS Market Leadership / brand strength Attractive growth profile Introduce new products and services to more receptive, better funded global customer base Stronger and more consistent earnings and cash flow growth Enhanced profitability from streamlined PSS operations Consolidated PIPS, FWS, Riverchase, Codespear and light bar businesses Represent about $200 million sales Will fund growth guided by disciplined capital allocation Mission: Become a Global Leader in Public Safety and Transportation Systems

14 Growth Opportunities in Public Safety & Intelligent Transportation Leverage leadership position in lightbars and sirens Continue growth of global warning systems business Enhanced by Codespear interoperability software Build on PIPS automated license plate recognition business to increase share in public safety and intelligent transportation Acquired Diamond Consulting Services in December 2009

15 Intelligent Transportation Opportunity: Open Road Tolling - - In the Early Growth Phase Open road tolling: process for collecting tolls without stopping to pay a toll Innovative toll technologies offer motorists new state of the art highways with increased efficiency and improved driving experiences Federal Signal is positioned to leverage its best in breed PIPS technology offering - PIPS is an important enforcement mechanism in Open Road Tolling Estimated global market for electronic toll collection technologies and services exceeds $5 billion In the US, over 30 states are now planning, building or operating tolls to finance required infrastructure expenditures - tentative financing mechanisms are depleted (e.g., Federal Highway Trust Fund) Tolling is the most effective state and local measure to finance required expenditures (source: National Surface Transportation Infrastructure Financing Commission) Economic and environmental benefits of Open Road Tolling and electronic toll collection Improved traffic flow, shorter commute times, automated collection results in higher net revenue than manual collection, fuel savings, reduced emissions from slowing and stopping v. paying at highway speeds HOT lanes allow toll operators to expand capacity without being required to build more infrastructure Case study for PIPS' leadership position: Denver E-470 toll-way One of handful of fully cashless toll roads in the US. Opened 3Q2009 PIPS and its technology partners reduced number of violations requiring manual review by 2/3 - cost of automated review using PIPS is < $0.05 per transaction v. > $2.00 for manual review

Toll Technologies 16 5. Transaction processing / toll back-office: Manages customer accounts, some customer service interaction. 4. Lane Controller: Transfers information from lane to back office where account billed or bill mailed to customer. Step 1. Vehicle Classification: Determines toll amount by determining "class" of vehicle. 3. PIPS camera / Enforcement function: Cameras take picture of car plates where RFID tag does not pay for toll. 2. Vehicle identification / RFID Tags & Readers: Readers read in-vehicle tags.

17 PIPS: Platform for Public Safety & Transportation Growth PIPS is the leading ALPR technology "ALPR" = Automated license plate recognition Will deploy into existing infrastructure - provide 24-hour monitoring Maintaining valuable database of information - used to manage traffic, enforce laws, identify threats and control access Responding to the trend of law enforcement rapidly becoming an IT based business Interoperability in communications driving federal and state spending Market needs are driving strong PIPS growth Q3 2009: 35%+ sequential order growth and +16% vs. LY PIPS is the most accurate and reliable ALPR solution in the market today D.H.S. SAVER Study (Oct 2008): PIPS received the highest overall score and the highest scores in capability, usability and "deploy-ability" categories

Diamond Consulting Services (DCS) Completed December 2009 Significant revenue synergies with PIPS DCS sells advanced proprietary software used to detect and classify vehicles in a variety of safety, tolling and data collection applications Has established strong credibility in traffic industry in past 15 years - an enabler in the evolution of tolling Recognized globally by the Idris(r) brand Idris technology classifies vehicles to the highest available accuracy and is the de-facto standard in the U.S. for axle-based Electronic Toll Collection.
