PRESS RELEASE

DynCorp International Recognized For Commitment To Veteran-Owned Businesses

FALLS CHURCH, Va.—May 20, 2009—DynCorp International (NYSE:DCP) has been recognized for the third year in a row by Vetrepreneur magazine as one of the United States’ 10 best corporations for veteran-owned businesses. Vetrepreneur is the official magazine of the National Veteran-Owned Business Association. The listing recognizes both efforts and results by companies in doing business with veteran-owned suppliers and contractors.

Vetrepreneur magazine’s June 2009 cover story notes that DynCorp International has been a perennial performer in its dedication to veterans, demonstrating an understanding that doing business with veterans is not just the right thing to do, it is also a smart business decision.

“Being named one of the 10 Best Corporations for Veteran-Owned Businesses means that our outreach efforts and results are noteworthy to the veteran community” said DynCorp International small business manager Debbie Newberry.  “For that we are extremely proud.”

DynCorp International arranged for 100 veteran-owned small businesses to attend free of charge the 12th Annual Government Procurement Conference, held in Arlington, TX in August 2008, and was title sponsor of the Veteran-Owned Business Accountability Summit in Washington, DC in June 2008. The Center for Veterans Enterprise also awarded the Maintenance and Technical Services Support business division of DynCorp International an achievement award for reaching its subcontracting goal for service-disabled veterans.

“DynCorp International supports the U.S. government in achieving its national security and foreign policy goals, working in austere, challenging and conflict environments around the world,” said DynCorp International President and CEO William L. Ballhaus. “Veterans are already on top of the learning curve in their knowledge of what we need from small businesses, and they understand and appreciate our major customers. We are well served by veteran-owned businesses, and we make a special effort in supporting them through supplier outreach programs and opportunities.”
