SEPARATION AND GENERAL RELEASE AGREEMENT

Versar, Inc. (“Company"') and I, Lawrence W. Sinnott(“Employee”), have entered into this agreement (“Release”) to settle all issues between us.

Section 2. Complete Release

(a) In General: Subject to the provisions of Section 6(d), I unconditionally release all the claims described in Section 2(b) that I may now have against any of the Released Parties listed in Section 2(d).

(b) Claims Released: The claims I am releasing under Section 2(a) include all known and unknown claims, promises, causes of action, or similar rights of any type that I presently may have (“Claims”) with respect to any Released Party listed in Section 2(d). I further understand that the Claims I am releasing might arise under many different foreign, domestic, national, state, or local laws (including statutes, regulations, other administrative guidance, and common law doctrines), such as the following:

Anti-discrimination statutes, such as the Age Discrimination in Employment Act and Executive Order 11,141, which prohibit age discrimination in employment; Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Sections 1981 and 1983 of the Civil Rights Act of 1866, and Executive Order 11,246, which prohibit discrimination based on race, color, national origin, religion, or sex; the Equal Pay Act, which prohibits paying men and women unequal pay for equal work; the Americans With Disabilities Act and Sections 503 and 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which prohibit discrimination based on disability; and any other federal, state, or local laws prohibiting discrimination, such as the Virginia Human Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination in employment based on race, color, religion, national origin, sex, pregnancy, childbirth or related medical conditions, age, marital status, or disability, the Virginians with Disabilities Act, which prohibits discrimination in employment based on disability, and the Fairfax County Human Rights Ordinance, which prohibits discrimination in employment based on race, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status or disability.

Federal employment statutes, such as the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (except as to vested benefits under any ERISA-covered plan), which, among other things, protects employee benefits; the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, which regulates wage and hour matters; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, which requires employers to provide leaves of absence under certain circumstances; and any other federal laws relating to employment, such as veterans’ reemployment rights laws.

Other laws, such as any federal, state, or local laws providing workers’ compensation benefits, mandating leaves of absence, restricting an employer’s right to terminate employees, or otherwise regulating employment; any federal, state, or local law enforcing express or implied employment contracts or requiring an employer to deal with employees fairly or in good faith; any other federal, state, or local laws providing recourse for alleged wrongful discharge, tort, physical or personal injury, emotional distress, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, defamation, and any other law relating to salary, commission, compensation, or benefits.

Examples of released Claims include, but are not limited to the following (except to the extent explicitly preserved by Section 1 or 2 of this Release): (i) Claims that in any way relate to or arose during my employment with the Company, or the termination of that employment, such as Claims for compensation, bonuses, commissions, lost wages, or unused or accrued vacation or sick pay; (ii) Claims that in any way relate to the design or administration of any employee benefit program; (iii) Claims that I have irrevocable or vested rights to severance or similar benefits; or (iv) any Claims to attorneys’ fees or other indemnities (such as under the Civil Rights Attorneys’ Fees Act), with respect to Claims I am releasing.

(c) Unknown Claims: I understand that I am releasing Claims that I may not know about. That is my knowing and voluntary intent. I understand the significance of doing so.

(d) Released Parties: The “Released Parties” are the Company and all of its subsidiaries and their past, present, and future officers and directors.

(e) Prorated Bonus: Nothing herein precludes me from providing information to Versar’s Compensation Committee of its Board of Directors for, at its sole option, a bonus payment for my efforts during fiscal year 2011. Such information must be submitted no later than September 1, 2011.

Section 3. Promises

(a) Employment Termination: I agree that my employment with the Company ended irrevocably on February 11, 2011. No one has told me that the Company will not be improving benefits for then current employees or offering them new benefits. I am accepting payments and benefits under this Release in lieu of any such other rights or benefits to which I possibly could be or become entitled. No one has represented to me that the Company or its affiliates will ever thereafter seek to rehire me and, I will not seek employment with them. Pursuit of Claims: I have not filed, initiated, or prosecuted (or caused to be filed, initiated, or prosecuted) any lawsuit, complaint, charge, action, compliance review, investigation, or proceeding with respect to any Claim this Release purports to waive, and I promise never to do so in the future, whether as a named plaintiff, class member, or otherwise. I promise to request any administrative agency or other body assuming jurisdiction of any such lawsuit, etc. to withdraw from the matter or dismiss it with prejudice. However, the two preceding sentences shall not preclude me from filing or prosecuting a charge with any administrative agency with respect to any such Claim as long as I do not seek any damages, remedies, or other relief for myself personally, which I promise not to do, and any right to which I hereby waive. This subsection (b) shall not apply to Claims of a statutory violation that are filed with a government agency to the extent, if any, prohibited by applicable law.

(b) Company Property and Debts: The Company and I acknowledge and agree that I have returned to the Company all files, memoranda, documents, records, copies of the foregoing, Company-provided credit cards, keys, building passes, security passes, access or identification cards, and any other property of the Company or any Released Party that was in my possession or control. The Company has agreed that I may retain my Sony laptop as long as I give them copies of all Company related files and have deleted them from the laptop, which will be done by February 28, 2011. The Company and I acknowledge and agree that I have repaid everything I owe to the Company or any Released Party, paid all amounts I owe on Company-provided credit cards or accounts (such as cell phone accounts), and canceled or personally assumed any such credit cards or accounts. I will have cleared all expense accounts and submitted all requests for reimbursement to the Company for any expense reimbursements due me by February 28, 2011..

(c) Taxes: I am responsible for paying any taxes on amounts I receive because I signed this Release. I agree that the Company is to withhold all taxes it determines it is legally required to withhold. I agree not to make any claim against the Company or any other person based on how the Company reports amounts paid under this Release to tax authorities; provided that such reports are in compliance with usual and customary reporting practices.

(d) Nonadmission of Liability: I agree not to assert that this Release is an admission of wrongdoing and I acknowledge that the Released Parties do not believe or admit that any of them has done anything wrong.

(e) No Disparagement or Harm: At all times hereafter, I agree to conduct myself in all of my communications with any person or entity in a manner that will protect the good will and reputation of the Company, its affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, directors, employees and agents, and any of its or their products or services. I will not make any remarks or statements, whether orally, in writing or electronically, that disparage, impugn, attempt to discredit or call into disrepute or otherwise damage the reputation of the Company or any Released Party. The Company agrees that it and its senior officers will not make any remarks about me, whether orally, in writing or electronically, that disparage, impugn, attempt to discredit or call into disrepute or otherwise damage my reputation. I will not publish any material relating to the Company or any Released Party on the world-wide web or any other public media. I acknowledge that the restriction contained in this paragraph is a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Release. Therefore, I agree that if I violate the restriction contained in this paragraph: a) I will not be entitled to any of the payments or other benefits provided in paragraph 1(a) hereof; b) the Company will immediately cease paying me the payments or other benefits provided in paragraph l(a) hereof; c) I will immediately return to the Company any and all payments or other benefits that I have received pursuant to paragraph 1(a) hereof; d) I will pay the Company a lump sum in the amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) as liquidated damages :for each and every violation; e) the Company will be entitled to an injunction against any further violations of the restrictions contained in this paragraph; and f) the Company will also be entitled to each other, additional damages and other relief as is available in law and equity. I acknowledge that the amount of liquidated damages specified herein represents an attempt to approximate the damage that might result from a violation, and that the liquidated damages are not a penalty and do not limit the availability to the Company of other, additional relief.

(f) Other Representations: I have not suffered any discrimination on account of my age, sex, race, national origin, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, or any other protected status, and none of these ever has been an adverse factor used against me by any Released Party. I have not suffered any job-related wrongs or injuries for which I might still be entitled to compensation or relief, such as an injury for which I might receive a workers’ compensation award in the future. I already have been paid all wages, commissions, compensation, benefits, and other amounts that any Released Party has ever owed me, except for unpaid amounts or benefits expressly payable under the terms of this Release.

(g) This Release to be Kept Confidential: I have not disclosed and will never disclose the terms, amount, or existence of this Release, to anyone other than a member of my immediate family or my attorney or other professional advisor and, even as to such a person, only if the person agrees to honor this confidentiality requirement. This subsection does not prohibit disclosures to the extent necessary legally to enforce this Release or to the extent prohibited by law, nor does it prohibit disclosures to the extent otherwise legally required (but only if I notify the Company of a required disclosure obligation or request within three days after I learn of it and permit the Company to take all steps it deems to be appropriate to prevent or limit the required disclosure).

(h) Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition:

(i) Non-Solicitation Employees. I agree not to solicit for employment (or to assist with such solicitation), or to hire (including employment as a full-time or part-time employee or as a consultant) any employee or former employee of the Company until: (1) the expiration of six months after I cease to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors, or (2) the expiration of six months after the date of my final severance payment to this Release, whichever is later (the “Non-Competition Period”). The restrictions set forth in this paragraph apply to the solicitation or hiring of any person who is, or within the two years before the termination of my employment, was an employee or consultant of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this restraint is not intended to (i) prevent any person from obtaining employment with any entity should that person respond to a general advertisement or seek employment wholly independent of the conduct restrained herein, or (ii) prevent any future employer of mine from employing, or soliciting for employment, any employee of the Company if I am not directly or indirectly involved therein.

(ii) Non-Solicitation Clients. I agree not to Solicit (or to assist with such solicitation), directly or indirectly, any customer or client of the Company, until the expiration of the Non-Competition Period. For the purpose of this paragraph, the terms “customer” and “client” include any person, private entity or governmental entity (but in the case of a governmental entity, only the specific department or agency thereof or employee or agent thereof), within or outside the United States of America, with whom the Company does or has done business, to whom the Company’s products or services have been provided or sold, whom the Company has solicited for funds, and/or to whom the Company is making, has made, or plans or has planned to make business contacts or sales calls, within the two years before the termination of my employment, and with whom I have had direct or indirect contact or whose business I have worked on or supervised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this restraint is not intended to prevent any future employer of mine from Soliciting or doing business with any customer or client of the Company if I am not directly or indirectly involved therein.

(i) Confidentiality of Company Information: I will not disclose to any person or entity, or use for the benefit of anyone other than the Company, any information regarding Company products, operations, activities, business methods, finances, customers, plans or opportunities of the Company, its affiliates, or clients, as of which I became informed in the course of my employment, and which is not generally known to the public other than by disclosure by me, unless such disclosure or use is authorized in writing by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

Section 4. Consequences of Violating Promises

(a) General Consequences: In addition to any other remedies or relief that may be available, I agree to pay any attorneys’ fees (including in-house counsel costs) and damages Released Parties may incur as a result of my breaching a promise I made in this Release (such as by suing a Released Party over a released Claim) or if any representation I made in this Release was false when made.

(b) ADEA Claims: This section shall not apply to ADEA Claims to the extent, if any, prohibited by applicable law. If subsection (a) is inapplicable because it is deemed to be prohibited by law, the non-prevailing party in any challenge to the validity of this Release as to an ADEA Claim shall pay the prevailing party’s reasonable attorneys fees.
