a)

The third bullet point under the subsection “Engility Discounted Cash Flow Analyses” is hereby amended as follows:

In estimating Engility’s terminal/continuing value, Guggenheim Securities used a reference range of perpetual growth rates of Engility’s terminal year normalized after-tax unlevered free cash flow of 2.00% – 3.00%. The terminal/continuing values implied by the foregoing perpetual growth rate reference range were cross-checked for reasonableness by reference to Engility’s implied terminal year EBITDA multiples, which ranged from 8.7x to 12.1x.

Guggenheim Securities’ selected publicly traded companies analysis resulted in an overall reference range of (i) $26.45 – $48.36 per share excluding the estimated present value of Engility’s existing tax benefits ($27.84-$48.36 per share based on CY2018E EBITDA and $26.45 – $42.69 per share based on CY2019E EBITDA)and (ii) $31.90 – $54.07 per share including the estimated present value of Engility’s existing tax benefits ($33.29 to $54.07 per share based on CY2018E EBITDA and $31.90 – $48.40 per share based on CY2019E EBITDA)for purposes of evaluating Engility’s common stock on a stand-alone public market trading basis.

c)

The third bullet under the subsection “SAIC Discounted Cash Flow Analyses” is hereby amended as follows:

In estimating SAIC’s terminal/continuing value, Guggenheim Securities used a reference range of perpetual growth rates of SAIC’s terminal year normalized after-tax unlevered free cash flow of 2.00% – 3.00%.

e)

The first paragraph under the subsection “Other Financial Reviews and Analyses” is hereby amended as follows:

Engility Illustrative Has/Gets Analysis (Based on Market Approach). Guggenheim Securities analyzed the pro forma impact of the transaction on the SAIC stock price and the implied Engility attributable per share equity value assuming that the value of the combined company would be equal to (i) SAIC’s then-current enterprise value, plus (ii) Engility’s then-current enterprise value, plus (iii) the capitalized value of synergies assuming a 9.0x capitalization multiple, less (iv) typical adjustments from enterprise value to equity value including debt, cash, minority interest and the PV of tax benefits (including NOLs). The assumed value of the combined company, excluding the capitalized value of synergies, implied a weighted-average, tax-adjusted trading enterprise value / CY2019E EBITDA multiple (based on weighted-average EBITDA contribution) of 13.4x.

Under those assumptions, the implied Engility attributable equity value would be $43.55 per share as compared to the then-current price of $36.24. Guggenheim Securities noted that assuming a synergies capitalization multiple equal to the then-current weighted average trading enterprise value / CY2019E EBITDA multiple (based on weighted-average EBITDA contributionor 13.4x) resulted in an implied Engility attributable equity value of $45.95 per share as compared to the then-current price of $36.24.

f)

The third paragraph under the subsection “Other Considerations” on page 84 is hereby amended as follows:

Aside from its current engagement by Engility, Guggenheim Securities has not been previously engaged during the past two years by Engility, nor has Guggenheim Securities been previously engaged during the past two years by SAIC, to provide financial advisory, capital markets, or other investment banking or other services for which Guggenheim Securities received fees. Guggenheim Securities may seek to provide Engility and SAIC and their respective affiliates with certain financial advisory and investment banking services unrelated to the merger in the future, for which services Guggenheim Securities would expect to receive compensation.

b)

The first footnote relating to the table on page 94 of the Proxy Statement is hereby amended as follows:

The adjustments made by Engility management to the SAIC unaudited forecasted financial information resulted primarily from changes to assumed re-compete and new business win rates based on Engility management’s view of the underlying assumptions, taking into consideration the current market conditions, competitive environment, as well as actual performance throughout the year. Engility management also made adjustments to the assumed margin profile of certain opportunities being competed (re-compete and new business).
