See accompanying notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. (Concluded) -6- TETRA TECH, INC. NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 28, 1998, the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three-month and nine- month periods ended June 28, 1998 and June 29, 1997 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended June 28, 1998 and June 29, 1997 are unaudited, and in the opinion of management include all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the periods presented. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 28, 1997. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 28, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending October 4, 1998. 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, EARNINGS PER SHARE, which the Company has adopted in the accompanying financial statements. The Statement replaces the presentation of primary Earnings Per Share (EPS) with a presentation of basic EPS, which excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Statement also requires the dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Diluted EPS is computed similarly to fully diluted EPS pursuant to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15. EPS for 1997 have been restated to reflect the requirement of SFAS 128. Basic and diluted EPS reflect, on a retroactive basis, a 5-for-4 stock split, effected in the form of a 25% stock dividend, wherein one additional share of stock was issued on December 1, 1997 for each four shares outstanding as of the record date of November 14, 1997. 3. CURRENT ASSETS The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $6,872,000 and $12,262,000 at June 28, 1998 and September 28, 1997, respectively. -7- 4. MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS On March 26, 1998, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of C.D.C. Engineering, Inc. (CDCE), a consulting and engineering firm specializing in civil engineering, transportation engineering, structural engineering and land surveying. The purchase has been valued at approximately $1,617,000 consisting of Company common stock and cash, and is subject to a purchase price adjustment based on CDCE's Net Asset Value as of March 26, 1998 as described in the related purchase agreement. On March 2, 1998, Whalen Service Corps Inc. (WSC) agreed to participate in a partnership with Sentrex Cen-Comm and ANTEC Corporation to provide design, engineering, information management and construction services to support advanced communication system upgrades to the broadband information transport industries. WSC holds a 51% majority interest in Whalen/Sentrex LLC, a California limited liability company. The agreement required the purchase of certain assets of TANCO LLC from ANTEC Corporation for a price in cash of approximately $623,000. On December 31, 1997, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Tetra Tech NUS, Inc., acquired the assets of certain environmental services businesses of Brown & Root, Inc. and Halliburton NUS Corporation, both of which are subsidiaries of Halliburton Company (collectively, NUS). NUS provides consulting, engineering and design services for the environmental remediation of contaminated air, water and soil conditions. The purchase price of approximately $24,872,000, as adjusted, consisted of cash. On July 11, 1997, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of CommSite Development Corporation (CDC), a wireless telecommunications site development service firm. The purchase has been valued at approximately $5,702,000, consisting of cash and 318,079 shares of Company common stock, as adjusted based on CDC's Net Asset Value on July 11, 1997 as described in the related purchase agreement. On June 11, 1997, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of Whalen & Company, Inc. and Whalen Service Corps Inc. (collectively, WAC). WAC, a telecommunications firm, provides a full range of services including telecommunications site development services for PCS, cellular, ESMR, air-to- ground, microwave, paging, fiber optic and switching centers technology. In addition, WAC provides consulting, engineering, design services and construction management with respect to the cable television industry. The purchase has been valued at approximately $41,738,000, consisting of cash and 3,639,800 shares of Company common stock. The common stock was issued in a private placement and had a value of $31,972,000. The Company's stock was valued based upon the extended restriction period and economic factors specific to the Company's circumstances which resulted in a fair valuation approximately 28% below the then prevailing market price. On the business day prior to the merger, WAC distributed to its stockholders (i) cash in the amount of $4,138,000 and (ii) accounts receivable having a net value of $18,456,000. On March 20, 1997, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of SCM Consultants, Inc. (SCM), a consulting and engineering firm, providing design of irrigation, water and wastewater systems, as well as facility and infrastructure engineering services, to state and local government, -8- private and industrial customers. The purchase was valued at approximately $2,431,000, consisting of cash and 197,572 shares of Company common stock, as adjusted based upon SCM's Net Asset Value on March 30, 1997 as described in the related purchase agreement. On December 18, 1996, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of FLO Engineering, Inc. (FLO), a consulting and engineering firm specializing in water resource engineering involving hydraulic engineering and hydrographic data collection. The purchase was valued at approximately $724,000, consisting of cash and 40,138 shares of Company common stock, as adjusted based upon FLO's Net Asset Value on December 29, 1996 as described in the related purchase agreement. On December 11, 1996, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of IWA Engineers (IWA), an architecture and engineering firm providing a wide range of planning, engineering, and design capabilities in water, wastewater, and facility design, and serving state and local government and private customers. The purchase was valued at approximately $1,632,000, consisting of cash and 95,675 shares of Company common stock, as adjusted based upon IWA's Net Asset Value on December 29, 1996 as described in the related purchase agreement. All of the acquisitions above have been accounted for as purchases and, accordingly, the purchase prices of the businesses acquired have been allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired based upon their fair market values. The excess of the purchase cost of the acquisitions over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill and is included in Intangible Assets - Net in the accompanying balance sheets. The final determination of such excess amount for CDCE, NUS and CDC is subject to a final determination of the value of the consideration paid and the net assets acquired as various studies and valuations are not yet complete. The results of operations of each of the companies acquired have been included in the Company's financial statements from their respective acquisition effective dates as set forth in the related purchase agreements. The effect of unaudited pro forma operating results of the CDCE, SCM, FLO and IWA transactions, had they been acquired on September 30, 1996, is not material. Pro forma operating results assuming the Company had acquired NUS, CDC and WAC on September 30, 1996 is presented in Note 7. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA OPERATING RESULTS. 5. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE Accounts receivable are presented net of a valuation allowance to provide for doubtful accounts and for the potential disallowance of billed and unbilled costs. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 28, 1998 and September 28, 1997 was $792,000 and $1,346,000, respectively. The allowance for disallowed costs as of June 28, 1998 and September 28, 1997 was $10,034,000 and $9,807,000, respectively. Disallowance of billed and unbilled costs is primarily associated with contracts with the U.S. government which contain clauses that subject contractors to several levels of audit. Management believes that resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. -9- 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENT On July 9, 1998, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of McNamee, Porter & Seeley, Inc. (MPS), a provider of water, wastewater and engineering services to the public sector and industrial clients. The purchase price of approximately $15,000,000 consisted of cash and Company common stock and is subject to a purchase price adjustment. In conjunction with the acquisition, MPS distributed to its shareholders accounts receivable having a net value of $8,040,000. The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase. In order to support this acquisition, the Company increased its line of credit from $55,000,000 to $70,000,000. Unaudited pro forma operating results, assuming MPS had been acquired on September 30, 1996 is presented in Note 7. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA OPERATING RESULTS. 7. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA OPERATING RESULTS The following table presents summarized unaudited pro forma operating results assuming that the Company had acquired MPS, NUS, CDC and WAC on September 30, 1996:

- --------- Gross revenue increased by 61.2% to $98,231,000 for the three months ended June 28, 1998 compared to $60,922,000 for the comparable prior year period. For the nine months ended June 28, 1998, gross revenue increased by 50.2% to $257,396,000 from $171,406,000 in the prior year. Net revenue increased by 54.6% to $75,149,000 for the quarter from $48,621,000 a year ago. For the nine months ended June 28, 1998, net revenue increased by 50.9% to $200,619,000 from $132,959,000 last year. For both gross and net revenue, growth in actual dollars was experienced in all client sectors. The following table presents the percentage of net revenue for each client sector:
Percentage of Net Revenue ------------------------------------------------ Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended ------------------ ------------------ June 28, June 29, June 28, June 29, Client Sector 1998 1997 1998 1997 - ------------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Federal government 51 50 50 55 State & local government 11 14 12 15 Commercial 36 34 36 27 International 2 2 2 3
For the quarter ended June 28, 1998, acquisitions made subsequent to June 29, 1997 contributed $16,050,000 of the $26,528,000 growth in net revenue, of which $11,726,000 was in the Federal government sector, $554,000 was in the state and local government sector and -11- $3,770,000 was in the commercial sector. For the nine months ended June 28, 1998, acquisitions made subsequent to June 29, 1997 contributed $32,294,000 of the $67,660,000 growth in net revenue, of which $22,661,000 was in the Federal government sector, $896,000 was in the state and local government sector and $8,737,000 was in the commercial sector. Cost of net revenue increased 52.6% to $54,405,000 for the three months ended June 28, 1998 compared to $35,660,000 for the comparable prior year period. For the nine months ended June 28, 1998, cost of net revenue increased 49.4% to $149,530,000 from $100,077,000 in the prior year. As a percentage of net revenue, cost of net revenue decreased in the quarter and in the nine months from 73.3% and 75.3% last year to 72.4% and 74.5% this year, respectively. The Company continues to emphasize strong project management techniques. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, inclusive of amortization, increased 38.2% to $9,333,000 for the three months ended June 28, 1998 compared to $6,754,000 for the comparable prior year period. For the quarter ended June 28, 1998, this increase was primarily due to the amortization of goodwill associated with acquisitions, as well as increases in SG&A expenses as a result of acquisitions. For the nine months ended June 28, 1998, SG&A increased 35.9% to $23,627,000 from $17,390,000 in the comparable period last year. As a percentage of net revenue, SG&A expenses decreased to 12.4% for the quarter ended June 28, 1998 from 13.9% for the comparable period last year, and for the nine months ended June 28, 1998, SG&A expenses decreased to 11.8% from 13.1% for the comparable period last year. These decreases were primarily attributable to increases in net revenue volume without commensurate increases in SG&A expenses. For the quarter ended June 28, 1998, net interest expense of $510,000 was recognized compared to net interest income of $4,000 in the quarter ended June 29, 1997, primarily due to interest on borrowings on the Company's revolving credit facility related to acquisitions. For the nine months ended June 28, 1998, net interest expense increased to $1,179,000, compared to net interest income of $83,000 in the prior year. This increase was also the result of interest on acquisition related borrowings. Income tax expense increased to $4,214,000 and $10,822,000 for the quarter and nine months ended June 28, 1998, respectively, from $2,567,000 and $6,464,000 for the comparable prior year period due to higher income before income taxes and the non-deductibility of certain goodwill amortization for income tax purposes. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of June 28, 1998, the Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $6,872,000. In addition, the Company has a credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with a bank which provides for a revolving credit facility of $55,000,000. Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may also request standby letters of credit up to the aggregate sum of $10,000,000 outstanding at any one time. As of June 28, 1998, outstanding borrowings totaled $29,500,000 and standby letters of credit totaled $1,780,000. Subsequent to June 28, 1998, the Company amended the Credit Agreement to provide for a revolving credit facility of $70,000,000 and standby letters of credit up -12- to an aggregate sum of $20,000,000 in order to support the July 9, 1998 acquisition of McNamee, Porter & Seeley, Inc. as described in Note 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENT. In the nine months ended June 28, 1998, cash used in operating activities was $1,854,000 compared to $5,035,000 for the comparable prior year period. The decrease is primarily attributable to the timing of invoicing and payments to subcontractors. The Company has targeted, as an ongoing practice, to increase its efficiency in the timing of invoicing and to accelerate the collecting of receivables. For the nine months ended June 28, 1998, cash used in investing activities was $28,322,000 compared to $2,912,000 for the comparable prior year period. This increase was primarily due to business acquisitions. For the nine months ended June 28, 1998, cash provided by financing activities was $24,786,000 compared to $14,611,000 for the comparable prior year period. This increase was primarily attributable to the incurrence of long-term debt related to acquisitions. The Company continuously evaluates the marketplace for strategic acquisition opportunities. Once an opportunity is identified, the Company examines the effect an acquisition may have on the business environment, as well as on the Company's results of operations. The Company proceeds with an acquisition only if it determines that the acquisition is anticipated to have an accretive effect on future operations. The Company's strategy is to position itself to address existing and emerging markets. The Company views acquisitions as a key component of its growth strategy, and intends to use both cash and its securities, as it deems appropriate, to fund such acquisitions. The Company expects that existing cash balances, internally generated funds, and its credit facility will be sufficient to meet the Company's capital requirements through the end of fiscal 1998. However, as acquisition opportunities present themselves, the Company may seek to expand its borrowing capabilities to accommodate such opportunities. The Company is working to resolve the potential impact of the year 2000 on its business processes and the ability of the Company's computerized information systems to accurately process information that may be date-sensitive. Any of the Company's programs that recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000 could result in errors or system failures. The Company utilizes a number of computer programs across its entire operation. The Company began its risk assessment in 1995. Since that time, the Company has procured certain financial reporting systems that are deemed to be year 2000 compliant. To date, the Company has spent approximately $1,200,000 on the procurement of these systems, the conversion of data from historical systems to these systems, and on implementation and testing of these systems. The Company has not completed its full assessment, but currently believes that the cost of addressing this issue will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position. However, if the Company and third parties upon which it relies are unable to address this issue in a timely manner, it could result in a material financial risk to the Company. The Company plans to devote all resources required to resolve any significant year 2000 issues in a timely manner. -13- RISK FACTORS STATEMENTS REGRARDING THE COMPANY'S PERFORMANCE PROSPECTS COULD CONTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION THAT INVOLVES RISK AND UNCERTAINTIES SUCH AS THE LEVEL OF DEMAND FOR THE CONPANY'S SERVICES, FUNDING DELAYS FOR PROJECTS, LACK OF REGULATORY CLARITY AFFECTING THE MARKETPLACE AND INDUSTRY-WIDE COMPETITIVE FACTORS. THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS SHOULD BE REVIEWED IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS QUARTERLY REPORT ON FORM 10-Q. POTENTIAL LIABILITY AND INSURANCE. Because of the type of projects in which the Company is or may be involved, the Company's current and anticipated future services may involve risks of potential liability under Superfund, common law or contractual indemnification agreements. It is difficult to assess accurately the magnitude of potential risk to the Company. The Company maintains two comprehensive general liability policies, both in the amount of $1,000,000. These policies, together with two $9,000,000 umbrella policies, provide total general liability coverage of $10,000,000 for the resource management and infrastructure business areas and coverage of $10,000,000 for the telecommunications business area. The Company's professional liability insurance (E&O) policy, which includes pollution coverage, for 1998 provides $10,000,000 in coverage for resource management and infrastructure business areas, with a $100,000 self-insured retention. The same E&O policy covers the telecommunications business area with a sublimit of $1,000,000 for each claim and $1,000,000 in the aggregate. The Company procures insurance coverage through a broker who is experienced in the engineering field. The broker, together with the Company's Risk Manager, reviews the Company's risk/insurance programs with those of the Company's competitors and clients. This review, combined with historical experience, claims history and contractual requirements, allows the Company to determine the adequate amount of insurance. However, because there are various exclusions and retentions under the Company's insurance policies, there can be no assurance that all liabilities that may be incurred by the Company are subject to insurance coverage. In addition, the E&O policy is a "claims made" policy which only covers claims made during the term of the policy. If a policy terminates and retroactive coverage is not obtained, a claim subsequently made, even a claim based on events or acts which occurred during the term of the policy, would not be covered by the policy. In the event the Company expands its services into new markets, no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to obtain insurance coverage for such activities or, if insurance is obtained, that the dollar amount of any liabilities incurred in connection with the performance of such services will not exceed policy limits. The premiums to be paid by the Company for its E&O policies during fiscal 1998 are approximately $890,000. The Company evaluates and determines the risk associated with uninsured claims. In the event the Company determines that an uninsured claim has potential liability, the Company establishes an appropriate reserve. The Company does not establish a reserve if it determines that the claim has no merit. The Company's historical levels of insurance coverage and reserves have been shown to be adequate. However, a partially or completely uninsured claim, if successful and of significant magnitude, could have a material adverse effect on the Company. -14- SIGNIFICANT COMPETITION. The market for the Company's services is highly competitive. The Company competes with many other firms, ranging from small local firms to large national firms having greater financial and marketing resources than the Company. The Company performs engineering and consulting services across a broad spectrum of business areas, primarily in the resource management, infrastructure, and the telecommunication service business areas. Services within these business areas are provided to a client base including Federal (Departments of Defense, the Interior and Energy; U.S Environmental Protection Agency; and the U.S. Postal Service), state and local agencies, as well as the commercial sector. The range of competitors for any one procurement can vary from 10 to 100 firms, depending upon the relative value of the project, the financial terms and risks associated with the work, and any restrictions placed upon competition by the customer. Historically, competition has been based primarily on the quality and timeliness of service. However, the Company believes that price has become an increasingly important competitive factor. The Company believes that its principal competitors include Dames & Moore, Inc., E A Engineering Science & Technology, ICF Kaiser International, Inc., International Technology Corp., TRC Companies, Inc., URS Consultants, Inc., Roy F. Weston, Inc., Castle Tower Corporation, OSP Consultants, Inc. and Mastec, Inc. CONTRACTS. The Company's contracts with the Federal and state governments and some of its other client contracts are subject to termination at the discretion of the client. Some contracts made with the Federal government are subject to annual approval of funding and audits of the Company's rates. Limitations imposed on spending by Federal government agencies may limit the continued funding of the Company's existing contracts with the Federal government and may limit the Company's ability to obtain additional contracts. These limitations, if significant, could have a material adverse effect on the Company. All of the Company's contracts with the Federal government are subject to audit by the government, primarily by the DCAA, which reviews the Company's overhead rates, operating systems and cost proposals. During the course of its audit, the DCAA may disallow costs if it determines that the Company improperly accounted for such costs in a manner inconsistent with Cost Accounting Standards. A disallowance of costs by the DCAA could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Historically, the Company has not had any material cost disallowances by the DCAA as a result of audit except as further described. There can be no assurance that DCAA audits will not result in material cost disallowances in the future. The Company's government contracts are also subject to renegotiation of profits in the event of a change in the contractual scope of the work to be performed. In September 1995, the Company acquired Tetra Tech EM Inc. (formerly known as PRC Environmental Management, Inc., "EMI"). EMI likewise contracts with the Federal government and such contracts are subject to the same auditing standards as those of the Company. Audits and negotiations for the years 1987 through 1993 have recently been completed and cost disallowances as a result of audit and negotiation totaled approximately $2,900,000. Audits for the years 1994 and 1995 have yet to be completed. At the time of acquisition, reserves for such cost disallowances were established. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of such audits and disallowances will have a material adverse effect on the Company. -15- The Company enters into various contracts with its clients, which include fixed-price contracts. To date, in fiscal 1998, 27.3% of the Company's net revenue was derived from fixed-price contracts. Under a fixed-price contract, the customer agrees to pay a specified price for the Company's performance of the entire contract. Fixed-price contracts carry inherent risks, including risks of losses from underestimating costs, problems with new technologies and economic and other changes that may occur over the contract period. Losses under fixed-price contracts, should they occur, could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company contracts with both domestic and international customers. Certain contracts with international customers are denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar. Contracts denominated in any currency other than the U.S. dollar contain certain inherent risks, including risks on foreign currency translation and risks in expatriating funds from foreign countries. To date, in fiscal 1998, 2.7% of the Company's net revenue was derived from the international marketplace. To the extent the Company's net revenue derived from the international marketplace increases, so increases risks associated in realizing the full contract value of those contracts denominated in foreign currencies. The Company is currently evaluating options to hedge future potential losses from foreign currency transactions. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. Many of the Company's clients are concerned about potential or actual conflicts of interest in retaining consultants and engineers. For example, Federal government agencies have formal policies against continuing or awarding contracts that would create actual or potential conflicts of interest with other activities of a contractor. These policies, among other things, may prevent the Company in certain cases from bidding for or performing contracts resulting from or relating to certain work the Company has performed for the government. In addition, services performed for a private client may create a conflict of interest which precludes or limits the Company's ability to obtain work from other public or private entities. The Company has, on occasion, declined to bid on a project because of an actual or potential conflict of interest. POTENTIAL VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE. The market price of the Company's common stock may be significantly affected by factors such as quarter-to-quarter variations in the Company's results of operations, changes in environmental legislation and changes in investors' perception of the business risks and conditions in the environmental and telecommunication services business. In addition, market fluctuations, as well as general economic or political conditions, may adversely affect the market price of the Company's common stock, regardless of the Company's actual performance. QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS. The Company's ability to attract and retain qualified scientists and engineers is an important factor in determining the Company's future growth and success. The market for environmental and telecommunication professionals is competitive and there can be no assurance that the Company will continue to be successful in its efforts to attract and retain such professionals. -16- PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES On March 26, 1998, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of C.D.C. Engineering, Inc., a California corporation (CDCE), through the merger of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary with and into CDCE (the "CDCE Merger").

A G R E E M E N T NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1.

"FORM S-3" shall mean such form under the Securities Act as in effect on the date hereof or any successor registration form under the Securities Act subsequently adopted by the SEC which permits inclusion or incorporation of substantial information by reference to other documents filed by Tetra Tech with the SEC. "PROSPECTUS" shall mean the prospectus included in any Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented by any prospectus supplement, with respect to the terms of the offering of any portion of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement and by all other amendments and supplements to the prospectus, including post-effective amendments and all material incorporated by reference in such Prospectus.

(a) Within 60 days after the date hereof, Tetra Tech shall file a Registration Statement on Form S-3, providing for the sale by the Holders, pursuant to Rule 415, and/or any similar rule that may be adopted by the SEC, of the Registrable Securities, and Tetra Tech shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective on or before November 9, 1998 and to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective for a period ending on the date on such all Holders are eligible to sell Registrable Securities under Rule 144 (or similar successor rule) without any volume limitation. If, at the time Tetra Tech is required to file a Registration Statement pursuant to this SECTION 2(A), Tetra Tech is not eligible to file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 to register resales by stockholders, Tetra Tech shall initially file a Registration Statement on Form S - -1 and shall comply with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. Upon becoming eligible to use the Registration Statement on Form S-3 to register resales by stockholders (whether pursuant to a ruling or waiver from the SEC or otherwise), Tetra Tech shall promptly file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or convert the existing Registration Statement to Form S-3 relating to the offer and sale of Registrable Securities by the Holders from time to time. Thereafter, Tetra Tech shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such new or amended Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as promptly as practicable. (b) No Holder shall have the right to register securities under this Agreement unless such Holder provides and/or confirms in writing prior to or after the filing of the Registration Statement such information (including, without limitation, information as to the number of Registrable Securities that such Holder has sold pursuant to any such Registration Statement from time to time) as Tetra Tech reasonably requests in connection with such Registration Statement. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, for a period not to exceed 90 days in any 12-month period, Tetra Tech shall not be obligated to prepare and file, or be prevented from delaying or abandoning, the Registration Statement required hereunder if Tetra Tech, in its good faith judgment, reasonably believes that the filing or maintenance of such Registration Statement would require the disclosure of material non-public information regarding Tetra Tech and, accordingly, that the filing thereof, at the time requested, or the offering of Tetra Tech Common Stock pursuant thereto, would materially and adversely affect (A) a pending or scheduled public offering or private placement of securities of Tetra Tech, (B) an acquisition, merger, consolidation or similar transaction by or of Tetra Tech, (C) preexisting and continuing negotiations, discussions or pending proposals with respect to any of the foregoing transactions, or (D) the financial condition of Tetra Tech in view of the disclosure of any pending or threatened litigation, claim, assessment or governmental investigation which might be required thereby. In the event that Tetra Tech, in good faith, reasonably believes that such conditions are continuing after such 90-day period, it may, with the consent of the Holders of a majority of 3. the Registrable Securities subject (or to be subject) to the Registration Statement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, extend such 90-day period for an additional 30 days. Any further delay shall require the consent of the Holders of all such shares. No seller of Registrable Securities shall (until further notice) effect sales of shares covered by the Registration Statement after receipt of telegraphic, telecopied or written notice from Tetra Tech to suspend sales to permit Tetra Tech to correct or update a registration statement or prospectus. 3. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. In connection with Tetra Tech's registration obligations pursuant to SECTION 2 hereof, Tetra Tech will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such registration to permit the sale of the Registrable Securities covered thereby in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto Tetra Tech will as expeditiously as possible: (a) prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective; PROVIDED that, before filing any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, Tetra Tech will furnish to the Holders of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement and their counsel, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed at least ten days prior thereto, and Tetra Tech will not file any such Registration Statement or amendment thereto or any Prospectus or any supplement thereto to which any such Holder shall reasonably object within such ten day period; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that Tetra Tech will not name or otherwise provide any information with respect to any Holder in any Registration Statement or Prospectus without the express written consent of such Holder, unless required to do so by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder; (b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, post-effective amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement; (c) notify the selling Holders (i) when the Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective, (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or for additional information, (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iv) of the receipt by Tetra Tech of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and (v) of the happening of any event which makes any statement made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any 4. document incorporated therein by reference untrue or which requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference in order to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing; (d) make every commercially reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement at the earliest possible moment; (e) deliver to each selling Holder, without charge, such reasonable number of conformed copies of the Registration Statement (and any post-effective amendment thereto) and such number of copies of the Prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) and any amendment or supplement thereto (and any documents incorporated by reference therein) as such Holder may reasonably request. Tetra Tech consents to the use of the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders in connection with the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto; (f) prior to any offering of Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement, register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders in connection with the registration or qualification of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any such selling Holder reasonably requests, and use commercially reasonable efforts to keep each such registration or qualification effective, including through new filings, or amendments or renewals, during the period such Registration Statement is required to be kept effective pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in all such jurisdictions reasonably requested by the Holders of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, PROVIDED that under no circumstances shall Tetra Tech be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereof to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions; (g) cooperate with the selling Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold, free of any and all restrictive legends, such certificates to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may request; (h) upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by SECTION 3(C)(V) above, prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Securities, the Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; 5. (i) make generally available to the holders of Tetra Tech's outstanding securities earnings statements satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, no later than 60 days after the end of any 12 month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of Tetra Tech's first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which statements shall cover said 12 month period; (j) provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement from and after a date not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement; (k) use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement to be listed, subject to notice of issuance, prior to the date of the first sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement, on each securities exchange on which the Tetra Tech Common Stock is then listed, and admitted to trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market, if the Tetra Tech Common Stock is then admitted to trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market; and (l) enter into such agreements and take such other actions as a majority of the Holders shall reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. Each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from Tetra Tech of the happening of any event of the kind described in SECTION 3(C)(V) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities under the Prospectus related to the applicable Registration Statement until such Holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by SECTION 3(H) hereof, or until it is advised in writing by Tetra Tech that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of Tetra Tech to take any action pursuant to this SECTION 3 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to Tetra Tech such information regarding itself and the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be required by the Securities Act to effect the registration of such Holder's Registrable Securities. 4. REGISTRATION EXPENSES. All expenses incident to any registration to be effected hereunder and incident to Tetra Tech's performance of or compliance with this Agreement, including without limitation all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, printing expenses, messenger and delivery expenses, National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., stock exchange and qualification fees, fees and disbursements of Tetra Tech's counsel and of independent certified public accountants of Tetra Tech (including the expenses of any special audit required by or incident to such performance), the fees and disbursements of one counsel and one accountant representing the Holders in such offering, expenses of the underwriters that are customarily requested in similar circumstances by such underwriters (excluding discounts, commissions or fees of underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers or similar securities industry professionals relating to the distribution 6. of the Registrable Securities, which will be borne by the Holders), all such expenses being herein called "Registration Expenses," will be borne by Tetra Tech. Tetra Tech will also pay its internal expenses, the expense of any annual audit and the fees and expenses of any person retained by Tetra Tech. 5. INDEMNIFICATION. (a) INDEMNIFICATION BY TETRA TECH. Tetra Tech agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors, partners and employees and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including any investigation, legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) (collectively, "Damages") to which such Holder may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state securities law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such Damages arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (iii) any violation or alleged violation by Tetra Tech of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities or blue sky laws in connection with the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, PROVIDED that Tetra Tech will not be liable to any Holder to the extent that such Damages arise from or are based upon any untrue statement or omission (x) based upon written information furnished to Tetra Tech by such Holder expressly for the inclusion in such Registration Statement, (y) made in any preliminary prospectus if such Holder failed to deliver a copy of the Prospectus with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the sale by such Holder to the party asserting the claim underlying such Damages and such Prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or omission and (z) made in any Prospectus if such untrue statement or omission was corrected in an amendment or supplement to such Prospectus and such Holder failed to deliver such amendment or supplement prior to or concurrently with the sale of Registrable Securities to the party asserting the claim underlying such Damages. (b) INDEMNIFICATION BY HOLDER OF REGISTRABLE SECURITIES. Each Holder of Registrable Securities whose Registrable Securities are sold under a Prospectus which is a part of a Registration Statement agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Tetra Tech, its directors and each officer who signed such Registration Statement and each person who controls Tetra Tech (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act), and each other Holder of Registrable Securities whose Registrable Securities are sold under the Prospectus which is a part of such Registration Statement (and such Holder's officers, directors and employees and each person who controls such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act), under the same circumstances as the foregoing indemnity from Tetra Tech to each Holder of Registrable Securities to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or 7. are based upon any untrue statement of a material fact or omission of a material fact that was made in the Prospectus, the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to such Holder furnished in writing to Tetra Tech by such Holder expressly for use therein, PROVIDED that in no event shall the aggregate liability of any selling Holder of Registrable Securities exceed the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Tetra Tech and the selling Holders shall be entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, to the same extent as customarily furnished by such persons in similar circumstances. (c) CONDUCT OF INDEMNIFICATION PROCEEDINGS. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person and not of the indemnifying party unless (A) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, (B) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (C) in the reasonable judgment of such person and the indemnifying party, based upon advice of their respective counsel, a conflict of interest may exist between such person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person). If such defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). No indemnified party will be required to consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by all claimants or plaintiffs to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Any indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim. As used in this SECTION 5(C), the terms "indemnifying party", "indemnified party" and other terms of similar import are intended to include only Tetra Tech (and its officers, directors and control persons as set forth above) on the one hand, and the Holders (and their officers, directors, partners, employees, attorneys and control persons as set forth above) on the other hand, as applicable. (d) CONTRIBUTION. If for any reason the foregoing indemnity is unavailable, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified 8. party in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or by such indemnified party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties acknowledge and agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this SECTION 5(D) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in this SECTION 5(D). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount such Holder would have been required to pay to an indemnified party if the indemnity under SECTION 5(B) hereof was available. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The obligation of any person to contribute pursuant to this SECTION 5(D) shall be several and not joint. (e) TIMING OF PAYMENTS. An indemnifying party shall make payments of all amounts required to be made pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this SECTION 5 to or for the account of the indemnified party from time to time promptly upon receipt of bills or invoices relating thereto or when otherwise due or payable. (f) SURVIVAL. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this SECTION 5 shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Tetra Tech, a participating Holder, its officers, directors, partners, attorneys, agents or any person, if any, who controls Tetra Tech or such Holder as aforesaid, and shall survive the transfer of such Registrable Securities by such Holder. 6. PREPARATION; REASONABLE INVESTIGATION. In connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement pursuant to the terms of this Agreement: (a) Tetra Tech shall, with respect to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to SECTION 2, give the Holders of such Registrable Securities so registered, their underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel and accountants the opportunity to participate in the preparation of such Registration Statement (other than reports and proxy statements incorporated therein by reference and properly filed with the SEC) and each Prospectus included therein or filed with the SEC, and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto; and (b) Tetra Tech shall give the Holders of such Registrable Securities so registered, their underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel and accountants such reasonable access to its books and records and such opportunities to discuss the business of Tetra Tech with its officers and the independent public accountants who have certified its 9. financial statements as shall be necessary, in the opinion of such Holders or such underwriters, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of Section 11(b)(3) of the Securities Act. 7. RULE 144. Tetra Tech covenants that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to file, on a timely basis, the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder, and it will take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request (including, without limitation, compliance with the current public information requirements of Rule 144(c) and Rule 144A), all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the conditions provided by Rule 144, Rule 144A or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of any Holder, Tetra Tech will promptly deliver to such Holder a written statement verifying that it has complied with such information and requirements. 8. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. Each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. Tetra Tech agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate. 9. NOTICES. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed by United States first-class mail, postage prepaid, sent by facsimile or delivered personally by hand or nationally recognized courier addressed (a) if to a Holder, as indicated on the list of Holders attached hereto as SCHEDULE A, or at such other address as such Holder or permitted assignee shall have furnished to Tetra Tech in writing, or (b) if to Tetra Tech, at such address or facsimile number as Tetra Tech shall have furnished to each Holder in writing. All such notices and other written communications shall be effective on the date of mailing, facsimile transfer or delivery. 10. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS: ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS. The rights and benefits of a Holder hereunder may not be assigned to a transferee or assignee without the consent of Tetra Tech; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, no later than the 10th day prior to the filing of the Registration Statement under SECTION 2 hereof, the rights and benefits of a Holder hereunder may be transferred in connection with a transfer or assignment of any Registrable Securities held by such Holder (i) by gift to immediate family members of such Holder, or trusts or other entities for the sole benefit thereof, or (ii) by gift to any entity in which such Holder, his or her immediate family members, or trusts or other entities for the sole benefit thereof beneficially own all of the voting securities; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in each case, the transferee executes an instrument pursuant to which the transferee agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof as a Holder, and such other documents as Tetra Tech or its counsel may reasonably require, after which, such transferee shall be deemed a "Holder" hereunder. Any transfer of Registrable Securities, and rights hereunder, shall be subject to compliance with applicable 10. securities laws and the restrictions contained in the Investment Letter executed by each Holder pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement. 11. SEVERABILITY. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstance, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected or impaired thereby. 12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT; WAIVER. This Agreement, the Stock Purchase Agreement and the other agreements contemplated thereby constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, the rights of the Holders to registration pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be subject to the limitations on resale contained in the Investment Letter (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement). Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated, except by a written instrument signed by Tetra Tech and the holders of at least 51% of the Registrable Securities and any such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination shall be binding upon all the parties hereto, but in no event shall the obligation of any party hereto be materially increased, except upon the written consent of such party. 13. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be original, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. 14. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws thereof. 15. NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. The covenants and agreements set forth herein are for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and such covenants and agreements shall not be construed as conferring, and are not intended to confer, any rights or benefits upon any other persons. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written. TETRA TECH, INC.
