</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On March&nbsp;2, 2010, Federal Signal Corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;) acquired all of the equity interests
in VESystems, LLC from its members for an aggregate purchase price of $33&nbsp;million pursuant to the
terms of the Purchase Agreement by and among the Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company
and the members owning all of the equity interests of VESystems, LLC. Included in the aggregate
purchase price was the issuance of 1,220,311 shares of the Company&#146;s Common Stock. At the
closing of the acquisition on March&nbsp;2, 2010, the Company issued to one of the members of
VESystems, LLC shares of Common Stock equal in value to $8,415,000, with the exact number of shares
to be issued computed by dividing $8,415,000 by the weighted average daily closing price of the
Company&#146;s Common Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Consolidated Reporting System for
the 20 trading days prior to the Closing Date ($6.896), and rounding the result up to the nearest
whole share.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Based upon the representations and warranties of the member of VESystems, LLC which received the
shares of the Company&#146;s Common Stock that it was a sophisticated investor purchasing the shares for
its own account and not with a view to resale, the Company issued the shares without registration
under the federal securities laws in reliance upon the exemption from registration set forth in
Section&nbsp;4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
