Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 23, 2014, the consent deadline expired pursuant to TransDigm Inc.’s (“TransDigm”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated (“TransDigm Group”), previously announced cash offer to purchase (“Tender Offer”), any and all of its 7.75% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2018 (the “Notes”). As of such date, TransDigm had received approximately $1,209 million aggregate principal amount of Notes, representing approximately 76% of such Notes, which were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn. TransDigm also received consents from holders of the required majority of the principal amount of the Notes to, among other modifications, eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants and certain events of default in the indenture, dated as of December 14, 2010 (as amended and supplemented, the “Indenture”), governing the Notes. In connection with the offers to purchase and consent solicitations, on May 23, 2014, TransDigm, TransDigm Group, the subsidiaries of TransDigm named therein as guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee, entered into the Eighth Supplemental Indenture (the “Eighth Supplemental Indenture”) to the Indenture. A copy of the Eighth Supplemental Indenture is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
