SOURCE: Deltek Systems, Inc.

HERNDON, VA --(INTERNET WIRE)--Apr 9, 2002 -- Deltek Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:DLTK - news), the leading provider of business software and solutions for project-based businesses and professional services firms, announced today that it has set the record and meeting dates for the special meeting of shareholders to consider the going private transaction proposed by Donald deLaski, Deltek's founder, and Kenneth deLaski, Deltek's co-founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

The merger agreement governing the transaction provides that shareholders, other than an entity that will hold Deltek shares now owned primarily by members of the deLaski family, will receive $7.15 per share in cash for their Deltek shares. Completion of the merger is subject to the approval of the holders of more than two-thirds of Deltek's outstanding common stock and to other customary conditions contained in the merger agreement.

The record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting is April 19, 2002, and the special meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 29, 2002, at the Dulles Hyatt hotel at 2300 Dulles Corner Blvd. in Herndon, Virginia.

Chairman and CEO Kenneth deLaski announced that the group proposing the going private transaction has received a commitment letter from SunTrust Bank for the commercial bank financing needed to complete the transaction. Definitive documentation for that financing has not yet been executed. Mr. deLaski noted that, in addition to the bank financing, he and Donald deLaski both will be investing personal funds to finance the transaction.
