TRW REFILES PREMERGER NOTIFICATION

CLEVELAND, OH , December 9, 1997 - TRW Inc. (NYSE: TRW) today announced that it
has withdrawn and refiled its premerger notification under the Hart-Scott-Rodino
(HSR) Antitrust Improvements Act with respect to its offer, commenced November
26, 1997, to purchase all of the outstanding shares of BDM International, Inc.
(Nasdaq: BDMI) for $29.50 per share. The HSR Act filing was withdrawn and
refiled at the request of representatives of the Department of Defense (DoD).
This was to permit the DoD to review the effect of the acquisition on an
approximately $25-million-in-annual-revenue BDM-DoD contract to provide systems
oversight for programs involving TRW. The HSR Act waiting period is now
scheduled to expire on December 23, 1997, one day prior to the offer's currently
scheduled expiration date. The offer is conditioned on, among other things, the
expiration or termination of the HSR Act waiting period.

TRW provides advanced technology products and services for the automotive and
space and defense markets. Systems integration activities involve the
development and application of systems engineering, systems integration,
information systems, and software development products and services for domestic
and international customers in government and commercial markets. TRW's total
revenue in 1996 was approximately $10 billion. The company's news releases are
available on the internet through TRW's Web site (http://www.trw.com).
