	 	Amendment to Offer of Promotion,
	 

	 	Dated February 20, 2004 (the “Offer Letter”)

Dear Rob,

This letter amends the above-referenced Offer Letter for the purpose of extending the term of
eligibility for severance under Section 1 and clarifying the terms of Section 3. Accordingly, the
Offer Letter shall be amended as follows:

1. The first sentence of Section 1 shall be deleted and replaced with the following: “If, from
the Effective Date until and including December 20, 2007, the Company terminates Employee’s
employment without Cause (as defined below), the Company shall make a lump-sum severance payment to
Employee equal to one year of Annual Base Salary as of the Date of Termination as defined below.”

2. The first paragraph of Section 3 shall be deleted and replaced with the following:

“Eligibility for Change of Control Benefits. If Employee terminates employment (for
reasons other than set forth in Section 3D below) with any successor or assign (or any of their
respective affiliates) of the Company at any time during the twenty four (24) month period
beginning on the effective date of a Change in Control (the “Protection Period”), he shall be
entitled to the Change of Control Benefits described in Section 2. If during the Protection
Period, Employee terminates his employment for Good Reason (as defined below) by delivering to the
successor or assign of the Company (or its respective affiliate), as applicable, each no later than
thirty (30) days after learning of the occurrence of an event constituting Good Reason: (i) a
Preliminary Notice of Good Reason (as defined below); and (ii) a Notice of Termination (as defined
below); Employee shall have the right, in his sole and reasonable discretion, to receive the Change
of Control Benefits. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the respective
meanings:”

     In addition, a new Section 3D shall be inserted as follows:

“D. Notwithstanding any other provision under this Agreement, Employee shall not be entitled to
receive Change of Control Benefits in the event that: Company’s successor or assign (or any of its
respective affiliates) terminates Employee’s employment for Cause (as defined below); (ii) Employee
dies (in which case the Company shall pay to Employee’s heir or personal representatives, as the
case may be, six (6) monthly payments, each equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of Employee’s then-current
salary, commencing with the first calendar month after termination); (iii) Employee is determined
to be totally and permanently disabled (in which case the Company shall pay to Employee six (6)
monthly payments, each equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of Employee’s then-current salary less any
payments under the Company’s long term disability insurance plan that Employee receives or is
entitled to receive in each such month, commencing with the first calendar month after
termination); (iv) the Company’s successor or assign (or any of its respective affiliates)
terminates Employee’s employment without cause (in which case the Company shall make a lump-sum
severance payment to Employee equal to one year of Annual Base Salary as of the Date of
Termination); or (v) Employee resigns other than for Good Reason (in which case the Company shall
have no further obligations to Employee under this Agreement, including without limitation payment
of future compensation or benefits). In any such event, Employee, in addition to any benefits
payable in accordance with this Agreement, shall be entitled only to his salary and benefits
accrued or earned and vested under other plans, programs, policies, practices and coverage of the
Company’s successor or assign (or any of its respective affiliates).”

3. All other terms and conditions of the Offer Letter shall remain the same.

By our mutual signatures below, you and the Company agree to the terms of this letter.

We look forward to continue success. If you have any questions, please call me at (703-269-3487).

Exhibit 10.77

December 16, 2003

Vice Admiral Scott Fry

21946 Sugarland Oaks Square

Sterling, Virginia 20164

Dear Admiral Fry:

We are pleased to offer you a position with Alion Science and Technology Corporation as a Chief
Strategist/Director of Program Development in Alion’s System Technology Sector reporting to Barry
Watson, Senior Vice President, Sector Manager, with a proposed start date of January 5, 2004. This
position is as an exempt employee. Your starting salary for this full-time position will be $6,924
biweekly. In addition, you will receive $15,000 as a sign-on bonus in accordance with the terms
outlined in the enclosed Bonus Agreement form. It is company policy that only Senior Vice
Presidents and Group Managers
receive the use of a company car, but we are making an exception to the policy for you and you will
have the use of a 2002 BMW until August 2005. It is our hope and expectation that you will be in a
key line management position by that time that would justify continual use of the vehicle.

All full-time employees participate in Alion’s Flexible Employee Benefits program. This program
provides you with a base of benefits at no cost to you: group life insurance, short and long term
disability insurance, business travel accident insurance, 10 paid holidays, and 15 days personal
time off during your first year of service. You are being offered an additional 4 days of PTO for
a total of 19 days during your first year of service. After you complete one year of service,
Alion will automatically begin contributions to the Alion Science and Technology Corporation
Employee Ownership Savings and Investment Plan (KSOP).

Optional benefits, in which you participate in the cost, include: medical, dental, vision, optional
life insurance, AD&D, dependent life insurance, health and dependent care flexible spending
accounts and Long Term Care insurance. Immediately upon hire, eligible employees may contribute to
the Alion Science and Technology Corporation Employee Ownership Savings and Investment Plan (KSOP).
The KSOP consists of an ESOP component (Alion stock) and a 401(k) plan. After one year of
continuous
service, Alion provides matching contributions to the KSOP plan, pursuant and subject to the Plan.

 

As a new employee, you will have a one-time opportunity to invest in Alion stock. You may rollover
monies from any qualified retirement plan that you had prior to employment with Alion and wish to
invest in the company stock portion of the Alion KSOP plan. If you elect to participate after the
one-time opportunity, you may still rollover monies from prior plans, but only to the 401(k)
portion of the plan.

Once you accept this position, you will be required to maintain your current security clearance
level.

In addition, you will also be required as a condition of employment to sign Alion’s Code of Ethics,
Conduct and Responsibility Acknowledgement Form and Alion’s Intellectual Property Agreement.
Copies are enclosed for your review.

Please note that employment offered by Alion is not an offer of continued employment for a definite
period, that is, either Alion or you may terminate employment at any time with or without notice,
for any reason or no reason.

Please confirm your acceptance decision by signing below and returning a copy of this letter
to us by December 23, 2003. We look forward to a pleasant association with you as a member of our
staff. If you have any questions, please call me at 703-269-3487.

Sincerely,

/s/ Katherine C. Madaleno

Katherine C. Madaleno

Vice -President, Director of Human Resources

I accept this offer of employment and enclose the required completed and signed Alion Employment
Application.

Re:   Addendum to Offer Letter

Dear Scott:

This letter constitutes an addendum to a letter, dated December 16, 2003, to you from Alion Science
and Technology Corporation (“Alion” or the “Company”) which constituted our original offer of
employment (the “Offer Letter”). This letter provides to you additional benefits in consideration
for your continued service to the Company. This letter replaces and supersedes in its entirety the
letter to you dated March 7, 2006.

     1. Benefits.

In addition to the benefits set forth in your Offer Letter, you will continue to be eligible to
receive a company-leased automobile under our Auto Lease Policy. This is equivalent to a maximum of
approximately $1,000 a month. You will also receive 24 personal days off (“PTO”) per year in
addition to the current ten paid holidays. You are also eligible to receive other executive benefits under current Alion policies for:

	 	•	 	Tax Preparation Subsidy
	 
	 	•	 	Physical Fitness Membership Subsidy
	 
	 	•	 	Annual Health Physical Subsidy

All other Alion Core and Optional Employee Benefits remain the same. In addition, you and the
Company agree to the following additional terms, with any reference to you to mean “Employee”:

     2. Severance. A. If, from the date of this letter until and including December 20,
2007, the Company terminates Employee’s employment without Cause (as defined below), the Company
shall make a lump-sum severance payment to Employee equal to one year of Employee’s annual base
salary as of the Termination Date

 

 

Mr. Scott A. Fry

as defined in Section 4 below. There will be no further rights
to any further compensation. In the event that Employee is terminated for Cause, Employee will not
be entitled to any severance or other benefits upon termination other than those accrued benefits
provided to employees pursuant to existing Company policies.

          B. For purposes of this letter, “Cause” is defined as the occurrence of one of the following:
(i) Employee’s material violation of Company policy or any violation of the Company’s Code of
Ethics, Conduct and Responsibility; (ii) any act, failure to act, series of acts or failures to
act, or course of conduct on Employee’s part constituting reckless, willful, or criminal misconduct
in the performance of your duties; (iii) any failure to perform, or gross negligence or
incompetence in the performance of, Employee’s duties; or (iv) Employee’s commission of a crime
involving conversion, misappropriation, larceny, theft, fraud, dishonesty, embezzlement, moral
turpitude or any other felony, regardless of whether such crime involves the Company.

     3. Change of Control Benefits. In the event of a Change of Control, as defined in
Section 5 below, if Employee meets the Eligibility Requirements set forth in Section 4 below, the
Company’s successor or assign shall pay Employee, in lieu of any severance benefits described
above, a lump sum amount equal to the amount of Employee’s annual base salary as of the Termination
Date (the “Change of Control Benefits”). There will be no further rights to any further
compensation or benefits.

     4. Eligibility for Change of Control Benefits. If Employee terminates employment (for
reasons other than set forth in Section 4D below) with any successor or assign (or any of their
respective affiliates) of the Company at any time during the twenty four (24) month period
beginning on the effective date of a Change in Control (the “Protection Period”), he shall be
entitled to the Change of Control Benefits. If during the Protection Period, Employee terminates
his employment for Good Reason (as defined below) by delivering to the successor or assign of the
Company (or its respective affiliate), as applicable, each no later than thirty (30) days after
learning of the occurrence of an event constituting Good Reason: (i) a Preliminary Notice of Good
Reason (as defined below); and (ii) a Notice of Termination (as defined below), Employee shall
have the right, in his sole and reasonable discretion, to receive the Change of Control Benefits.
For purposes of this letter, the following terms shall have their respective meanings:

          A. “Good Reason” shall result only upon the occurrence, without Employee’s prior written
consent, of one or more of the following events, as determined by Employee in good faith, during
the Protection Period: (i) Employee’s

authority or responsibility has materially diminished as
compared to Employee’s authority and responsibility in effect immediately prior to a Change in
Control; (ii) Employee has been assigned permanent duties inconsistent with his position,
responsibility and status with the Company immediately prior to the Protection Period; (iii) there
has been an adverse change in Employee’s title or office as in effect immediately prior to the
Protection Period; (iv) Employee’s base pay or incentive compensation has been reduced; or (v)
Employee’s principal work location is more than
ten (10) miles away from the principal work location as immediately prior to the Protection
Period; provided, however, that “Good Reason” shall not include (x) acts
not taken in bad faith that are cured by the Company’s successor or assign in all respects,
including without limitation restoration of all back pay and incentive compensation through the
Termination Date, not later than thirty (30) days from the date of receipt by the successor or
assign of the Company (or its respective affiliate), as applicable, of a written notice from
Employee identifying in reasonable detail the act or acts constituting “Good Reason” in a
“Preliminary Notice of Good Reason”, or (y) acts for which Employee does not provide a Preliminary
Notice of Good Reason within thirty (30) days of learning of the occurrence of the event
constituting Good Reason.

          B. “Notice of Termination” shall mean a notice that indicates in reasonable detail the facts
and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Employee’s employment.

          C. “Termination Date” shall mean the date specified in the Notice of Termination for
termination of Employee’s employment under this Agreement.

          D. Notwithstanding any other provision under this Agreement, Employee shall not be entitled to
receive Change of Control Benefits in the event that: Company’s successor or assign (or any of its
respective affiliates) terminates Employee’s employment for Cause (as defined below); (ii) Employee
dies (in which case the Company shall pay to Employee’s heir or personal representatives, as the
case may be, six (6) monthly payments, each equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of Employee’s then-current
salary, commencing with the first calendar month after termination); (iii) Employee is determined
to be totally and permanently disabled (in which case the Company shall
pay to Employee six (6) monthly payments, each equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of Employee’s
then-current salary less any payments under the Company’s long term disability insurance plan that
Employee receives or is entitled to receive in each such month, commencing with the first calendar
month after termination); (iv) the Company’s successor or assign (or any of its respective
affiliates) terminates Employee’s employment without cause (in which case the Company shall make a
lump-sum severance payment to Employee equal to one year of Annual Base Salary as of the Date of
Termination); or (v) Employee resigns other than for Good Reason (in which case the

Company shall
have no further obligations to Employee under this Agreement, including without limitation payment
of future compensation or benefits). In any such event, Employee, in addition to any benefits
payable in accordance with this Agreement, shall be entitled only to his salary and benefits
accrued or earned and vested under other plans, programs, policies, practices and coverage of the
Company’s successor or assign (or any of its respective affiliates).”

     5. Change in Control. For the purposes of this letter, a “Change of Control” shall
mean and shall be effective upon the closing date of: (i) the dissolution or liquidation of the
Company; (ii) the merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, foundation,
association or other entity; (iii) the amendment of the Company’s corporate documents to grant a
party other than the Company’s Employee
Stock Ownership Plan, the right to designate, elect or remove a majority of the Company’s
voting directors; or (iv) the transfer to another corporation, foundation, association or other
entity in a sale, lease, exchange or other similar transfer (in a single transaction or in a series
of related transactions) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.

     6. Other Provisions. All other provisions set forth in the Offer Letter shall remain
the same.

By our mutual signatures below, you and the Company agree to the terms of this letter.

We look forward to your continued success with Alion. If you have any questions, please call me at
