                              (Page 9 of 13 Pages)



         This Amendment No. 5 (the "Amendment") amends the Statement of
Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") on May 9, 2005 which amended the previous
Statements of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D (the "Wynnefield Schedule
13D"), filed by Wynnefield Partners Small Cap Value, L.P. (the "Partnership"),
Wynnefield Small Cap Value Offshore Fund, Ltd. (the "Fund"), Wynnefield Partners
Small Cap Value, L.P. I (the "Partnership-I") and Channel Partnership II, L.P.
("Channel" and, collectively with the Partnership, the Fund, the Partnership-I
and Channel, the "Wynnefield Reporting Persons"), with respect to the shares of
12% Cumulative Exchangeable Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per
share (the "Preferred Shares"), of Telos Corporation, a Maryland corporation
with its principal executive offices located at 19886 Ashburn Road, Ashburn,
Virginia 20147-2358 (the "Issuer"). In addition to the Original Reporting
Persons, this Amendment is filed by and on behalf of Wynnefield Capital
Management, LLC ("WCM"), Wynnefield Capital, Inc.("WCI"), Nelson Obus ("Mr.
Obus") and Joshua H. Landes. The information contained in this Amendment is as
of the date hereof, unless otherwise expressly provided herein.

ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

         "Item 4. Purpose of Transaction." appearing in the Wynnefield Schedule
13D is supplemented by adding the following disclosure to the end of such item:

         On October 17, 2005, Costa Brava Partnership III, LP ("Costa Brava")
filed a direct and derivative lawsuit in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City in
the State of Maryland against the Issuer, each director of the Issuer, and
certain of the Issuer's executive officers (the "Lawsuit") alleging breaches by
the Issuer if its obligations to the holders of the Preferred Shares and by the
directors and name executive officers of their fiduciary duties to the Issuer
and the holders of the Preferred Shares. A copy of the complaint filed in the
Lawsuit (the "Complaint") is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 99.1 of
the Amendment. On February 8, 2006, Costa Brava and the Partnership entered into
a Joint Litigation Agreement whereby the Partnership agreed to join Costa Brava
as co-plaintiffs in the Lawsuit (see Item 6 herein). Each of Costa Brava and the
Partnership has retained its own counsel in connection with the Lawsuit. On
February 8, 2006, the Partnership filed a Motion for Leave to Intervene along
with a copy of a proposed Amended Complaint, which, if allowed, would, among
other things, add the Partnership as plaintiff in the Lawsuit (the "Motion and
Amended Complaint"). Any descriptions herein of the Complaint and the Motion and
Amended Complaint are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Complaint
and the Motion and Amended Complaint.

         The "Costa Brava Reporting Persons" are Costa Brava, Roark, Rearden &
Hamot, LLC ("Roark"), Seth W. Hamot, White Bay Capital Management, LLC ("White
Bay"), and Andrew R. Siegel.



                              (Page 10 of 13 Pages)



         None of the Costa Brava Reporting Persons nor the Wynnefield Reporting
Persons (collectively, the "Reporting Persons") have any agreements or
understandings between them relating to the acquisition, disposition, holding or
voting of the Preferred Shares held by them and each expressly disclaims
beneficial ownership for all purposes of the Preferred Shares held by the
others. The Costa Brava Reporting Persons and the Wynnefield Reporting Persons
each disclaim membership in a "group" with the other Reporting Persons. The
Costa Brava Reporting Persons and the Wynnefield Reporting Persons have each
filed an amendment to their respective Schedule 13D solely as a result of Costa
Brava's and the Partnership's agreement to file and pursue the Lawsuit.

         Each of the Reporting Persons reserve the right to change its plans and
intentions at any time, as it deems appropriate. In particular, the Costa Brava
Reporting Persons or the Wynnefield Reporting Persons may, among other things,
sell or otherwise dispose of their respective holdings of the Preferred Shares,
including the redemption amount of the Preferred Shares and accrued and unpaid
dividends, purchase additional Preferred Shares, in each case in public or
private transactions, and/or may enter into negotiated derivative transactions
to hedge the market risk of some or all of their positions in, or to obtain
greater exposure to, the Preferred Shares, as the members of the Costa Brava
Reporting Persons or the Wynnefield Reporting Persons may determine, in light of
circumstances existing from time to time, subject to any applicable limitations
imposed on the sale of the Preferred Shares or an interest therein by the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws.

         Except as set forth above, no member of the Reporting Persons has any
present plans or intentions which would result in or relate to any of the
transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of the
instructions to Schedule 13D.

ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         "Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer." appearing in the
Wynnefield Schedule 13D is supplemented by adding the following disclosure to
the end of such item:

         To the best knowledge of the Wynnefield Reporting Persons, in the event
the Reporting Persons are deemed to be a "group" for purposes of Regulation
13D-G under the Act as a result of their agreement to file and pursue the
Lawsuit, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own collectively an
aggregate of 880,311 of the Preferred Shares, representing 27.6% of the
3,185,586 outstanding Preferred Shares (the percentage of shares owned being
based upon the 3,185,586 Preferred Shares outstanding on November 21, 2005, as
set forth in the Issuer's most recent report on Form 10-Q for the period ended
September 30, 2005, filed with the Commission on November 21, 2005). The Costa
Brava Reporting Persons and the Wynnefield Reporting Persons each expressly
disclaims beneficial ownership for all purposes of the Preferred Shares held by
each of the other Reporting Persons and each disclaim membership in a "group"
with the other Reporting Persons.

         Although the Preferred Shares are non-voting stock, it has the
exclusive right to vote as a class for up to two directors to the Board of
Directors of the Issuer if at any time or times dividends payable on the
Preferred Shares shall be in arrears and unpaid for three consecutive full
semi-annual periods. The two



                              (Page 11 of 13 Pages)



directors that may be elected by the holders of the Preferred Shares constitute
a minority of the total Board of Directors of the Issuer, which results in the
holders of the Preferred Shares being unable to exercise control over the
Issuer.

ITEM 6.  CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT
         TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         "Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With
Respect to Securities of the Issuer." appearing in the Wynnefield Schedule 13D
is supplemented by adding the following disclosure to the end of such item:

         Each of Costa Brava and the Partnership are a party to a Joint
Litigation Agreement, dated as of February 8, 2006, pursuant to which the
parties agreed to cooperate with each other in the prosecution of the Lawsuit.

         Except for the agreement described above, to the best knowledge of the
Reporting Persons, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or
relationships (legal or otherwise) between the Reporting Persons, and any other
person, with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including, but not limited
to, transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder's fees, joint ventures,
loan or option agreements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, divisions of
profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

ITEM 7.  MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS

         The following exhibit is filed as part of this Amendment:

         Exhibit 99.1   Complaint filed in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City
                        in the State of Maryland on October 17, 2005
                        (incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 99.4 of
                        Amendment No. 6 to the Statement of Beneficial Ownership
                        on Schedule 13D, filed by the Costa Brava Reporting
                        Persons with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
                        October 18, 2005 (File No. 005-34123)).


                                    SIGNATURE

         After reasonable inquiry and to the best of their knowledge and belief,
the undersigned certify that the information set forth in this Amendment is
true, complete and correct.
