FAIRFAX, VA—March 6, 2007—Argon ST, Inc. (NASDAQ:STST), a leading systems engineering, development and services company providing full-service command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems and services to a wide range of defense and intelligence customers, today announced that on February 28, 2007, the Board of Directors amended the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws to require directors to be elected by majority vote.
