Item 5.02 Departure Of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

(e) On October 2, 2014, at a special meeting, the stockholders of TransDigm Group Incorporated (the “Company”) voted to approve and adopt the Company’s 2014 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on July 24, 2014, subject to shareholder approval.

The Plan is designed to assist the Company in attracting, retaining, motivating and rewarding key employees, directors or consultants, and promoting the creation of long-term value for stockholders of the Company by closely aligning the interests of key employees, directors or consultants with those of the Company’s stockholders. The Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the Committee is authorized to grant incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options each with an exercise price not less than the per share fair market value of Company’s shares of Common Stock on the date the option is granted and a term of no more than ten years.

The number of the Company’s shares of Common Stock reserved for awards under the Plan is 5,000,000, subject to certain capitalization adjustments. The Plan provides that no more than 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock will be the subject of options granted to any single participant during any 12-month period. The amounts that will be received by or allocated to certain executive officers under the Plan are not determinable; however, the Company anticipates that it will make option grants consistent with past practice.

The Board of Directors has the authority to amend, suspend or terminate the Plan; provided, however, that any amendment that must be approved by shareholders will not be effective unless and until shareholder approval has been obtained.

The foregoing summary of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
