<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Austin, TX (June 11, 2014) - Astrotech Corporation (NASDAQ:
ASTC), a leading provider of commercial aerospace services, today announced that it has completed an internal reorganization and
will now own 100% of its subsidiary companies 1<SUP>st</SUP> Detect Corporation (&ldquo;1<SUP>st</SUP> Detect&rdquo;) and Astrogenetix
Inc. (&ldquo;Astrogenetix&rdquo;), in which it had previously issued equity grants to employees.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;This transaction was the right thing to do for our shareholders,&rdquo;
said Thomas B. Pickens III, Chairman and CEO of Astrotech. &ldquo;The subsidiary equity grants were meant to incentivize our employees,
however we found that it caused confusion and uncertainty among our shareholders, so we have now simplified our corporate structure.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">This transaction will restore the ownership by Astrotech shareholders
of 100% of the subsidiary companies. Previously, Astrotech Corporation owned 86.4% and 83.6% of 1<SUP>st</SUP> Detect and Astrogenetix,
respectively.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In connection with the Annual Shareholders Meeting scheduled
for June 26<SUP>th</SUP>, the company asked its shareholder to authorize additional shares in Astrotech Corporation to be used
for future incentive compensation. Many of these shares will be used to compensate those hardworking employees who will no longer
own stock in 1<SUP>st</SUP> Detect and Astrogenetix.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">About Astrotech Corporation</P>

a strong entrepreneurial force in the aerospace industry. We are leaders in identifying, developing and marketing space technology
for commercial use. Our ASO business unit serves our government and commercial satellite and spacecraft customers with pre-launch
