FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

KRATOS DEFENSE & SECURITY SOLUTIONS, INC.

COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF HERLEY INDUSTRIES

SAN DIEGO, CA, March 30, 2011—Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: KTOS), a leading National Security Solutions provider, today announced the successful completion of its acquisition of Herley Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: HRLY) at a price of $19.00 per share.  Kratos completed the acquisition through a cash tender offer and a subsequent short-form merger of an indirect wholly owned subsidiary with and into Herley.

As a result of the merger, all outstanding shares of Herley common stock not validly tendered and accepted for payment in the tender offer were converted into the right to receive $19.00 per share in cash, without interest and less any required withholding taxes. The depositary for the tender offer will mail to non-tendering stockholders materials necessary to exchange Herley stock certificates for such payment.  As a result of the Merger, Herley shares ceased trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

Eric DeMarco, President and CEO of Kratos, said, “Herley is one of the premier technology, engineering and high-tech national defense focused electronics products businesses in the industry today.  With this acquisition, Kratos gains significant expertise in numerous established electronic attack and electronic warfare platforms, tactical missile systems, and strategic deterrence systems which complement our existing business in manned and unmanned aircraft, missile systems and certain other programs.  I want to personally welcome Rich Poirier, his management team, and the Herley employees to Kratos, where together we will continue our strategy of building the premier National Security products, solutions and services business in the industry today.”
