On August 5, 2004, ENGlobal Corporation issued a press release, a copy of which
is set forth below. In accordance with General Instructions B.2. of Form 8-K,
the following information shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18

       ENGLOBAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCES BANK REFINANCING WITH COMERICA BANK

HOUSTON, TX, AUGUST 5, 2004 - ENGlobal Corporation (AMEX: ENG), a leading
provider of engineering services, today announced that it has successfully
refinanced its bank debt. The new facility, obtained from Comerica Bank
("Comerica"), provides $22 million in senior debt, subject to borrowing base
restrictions. At the election of the Company, the interest rate on the
outstanding debt will be the lower of prime or a three-tiered Eurodollar rate,
plus basis points based on the ratio of the Company's total funded debt to
EBITDA for the trailing 12 months, subject to quarterly adjustments. The Company
anticipates substantial savings over the three year term of the new credit
facility.

The new credit facility enables ENGlobal to reduce its interest expense and
administrative costs, retire outstanding debt that carried a higher interest
rate, and have funds available to finance its future growth. In addition, the
terms of the new loan eliminate annual loan service fees, and are expected to
reduce ENGlobal's audit and legal expenses.

The initial funding on the Comerica line of credit was approximately $8.6
million. The Company used a portion of the funds to pay its Fleet Capital
Corporation ("Fleet") credit facility in full. The Company was in compliance
with all covenants under the terms of the Fleet credit facility as of June 30,
2004, the Company's last reporting date under that facility. The Company also
paid $2,156,000 in principal and interest to retire the balance of a $3 million
term loan executed in December 2001. The loan bore interest at 9.5%, with
principal and interest payments due quarterly. The loan had been scheduled to
mature in December 2005. The remaining borrowings available under the line of
credit on the July 28, 2004 funding date were approximately $7.5 million.

ENGlobal's Chief Financial Officer, Robert W. Raiford, said, "We are very
pleased to have refinanced our debt into a structure that better suits our
current financial and operational objectives. As a result of the refinancing,
our annual cost of debt has been reduced, we have maintained functionality
provided by a traditional revolver to meet day-to-day operational needs, and we
have gained flexibility to support the Company's acquisition strategy."

"We are pleased to provide this credit facility to ENGlobal Corporation," said
Gary Orr, Houston Market President for Comerica Bank. "Comerica is committed to
supporting companies such as ENGlobal that demonstrate sound fundamentals
necessary for long-term success. Our wealth of experience in serving the
financial services needs of businesses is reflected in our outstanding
portfolio, which includes many innovative companies like ENGlobal."

The Company will file a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission
containing the full text of the new bank debt agreement.
