Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

     On December 30, 1999,  Enterworks,  Inc.  ("Enterworks"),  a majority-owned
subsidiary  of  Telos  Corporation  (the  "Company"),   completed  the  sale  of
21,739,127 shares of Series A Convertible  Preferred Stock  ("Preferred  Stock")
under a  private  placement  offering  which  was  approved  by both  Boards  of
Directors of the Company and of  Enterworks.  The sale price was $1.15 per share
and the sale  generated  gross  proceeds  of  $25,000,000.  The  majority of the
proceeds from this offering were from funds provided by institutional  investors
such as General Electric Pension Trust, which is managed by GE Investment Corp.,
Chartwell Capital Investors II, and J & W Seligman & Company.  In addition,  the
Company converted  approximately $7.6 million of its Senior  Subordinated Notes,
Series B, C and D held by investors, plus the accrued interest and the waiver of
prepayment  premium  associated  with these  notes,  into shares of  Enterworks'
Common Stock currently owned by the Company at an exchange ratio of one share of
Enterworks' Common Stock for each $1.00 principal amount of notes payable. These
subordinated notes had a maturity date of October 1, 2000. This transaction will
be recognized in the Company's financial statements as of and for the year ended
December 31, 1999.

     As a result of the sale of the Series A Preferred  Stock, the conversion of
the  subordinated  debt and the concurrent  transactions  described  below,  the
Company's ownership  percentage in Enterworks was reduced to a 35% common voting
interest.   The  third  party   preferred   stock  investors  and  other  common
stockholders  hold the 65%  majority  voting  shares,  consisting  of common and
preferred securities.  Prior to the private placement transaction,  the Company,
holding  the  majority  of  Enterworks   shares   outstanding,   controlled  the
Enterworks' Board of Directors.  Subsequent to the transaction, the Company will
be entitled to designate 1 of the 5 Enterworks' Board members.  The Company has,
therefore,  changed its method of accounting for its Enterworks  subsidiary from
the  consolidation  method to the equity  method.  Pursuant to this change,  the
revenues,  costs  and  expenses  of  Enterworks  will  be  excluded  from  their
respective captions in the Company's consolidated  statement of operations,  and
the Company's  interest in the losses of Enterworks will be reported  separately
as "Equity in Net Losses of Enterworks." Additionally,  the assets, liabilities,
and equity of  Enterworks  will be excluded from their  respective  consolidated
balance  sheet  captions  and the  Company  will  establish  an  "Investment  in
Enterworks" account in accordance with APB 18.

     The Company's Board of Directors  approved the  transactions as part of its
overall  strategic  goals.  In order to increase its equity capital and decrease
its debt, the Company effected several  concurrent  transactions  simultaneously
with the  closing  of the  issuance  and  sale of the  Preferred  Stock  and the
conversion of the  subordinated  debt. The transactions of the Company and their
impact to the Company's financial statements are discussed below.

     The  impact of the  following  transactions  will be  recognized  if and as
appropriate in the Company's  financial  statements as of and for the year ended
December 31, 1999.

- - Enterworks'  payable to the Company,  which was approximately $26.7 million at
September  30,  1999,  was  contributed  to capital in its  entirety  before the
issuance  of  Series A  Preferred  Stock;  however,  funding  required  to cover
Enterworks'  working capital needs from November 30, 1999 to the date of closing
was  funded  by  the  Company  and  will  be  repaid  through  collections  from
Enterworks'  trade  accounts  receivable.  This  funding is estimated to be $2.0
million.

- -  Enterworks  issued  4,000,000  shares of  Enterworks'  Common  Stock to Telos
concurrent with the issuance of Series A Preferred  Stock.

- - Enterworks  issued a warrant to acquire  350,000 shares of Enterworks'  Common
Stock to Telos'  primary  lender in  connection  with  obtaining  the  necessary
approvals for the offering of Enterworks' preferred stock. The exercise price of
the warrant  equaled  $1.15 per share,  the same per share price of the Series A
Preferred Stock.

- - Enterworks purchased 5,000,000 shares of Enterworks' Common Stock owned by the
Company at a price of $1.00 per  share.  This  amount was  reduced by 20% of the
Agent's fee, the Company's pro rata share of the proceeds from the  transaction.
The net amount received was $4.7 million.

- - Telos  contributed  210,912  shares  of   Enterworks'  Common  Stock owned  by
Telos to the  Enterworks  treasury for the  subsequent  grant of warrants to the
Agent, Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown. This issuance of warrants was also part of the
Agent's fee and  decreases  the Company's  net  investment  in  Enterworks.  The
Company  incurred  an  additional  $303,000  in  offering  costs  related to the
Enterworks' private placement of preferred stock.
