Introduction.

 

 

 

This Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2006, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 2007, amended by Amendment No. 2 thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 29, 2007, amended by Amendment No. 3 thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 12, 2007, amended by Amendment No. 4 thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 14, 2008, and further amended by Amendment No. 5 thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 20, 2009 (as so amended, the “Current Schedule 13D”), on behalf of TD Group Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TD LLC”), Warburg Pincus Private Equity VIII, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (together with two affiliated entities, “WP VIII”), Warburg Pincus LLC, a New York limited liability company (“WP LLC”), Warburg Pincus & Co., a New York general partnership (“WP”), and Warburg Pincus Partners, LLC, a New York limited liability company and a subsidiary of WP (“WP Partners LLC”, and together with WP VIII, WP LLC and WP, the “Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons”).  Charles R. Kaye and Joseph P. Landy are each Managing General Partners of WP and Co-Presidents and Managing Members of WP LLC.  This Amendment relates to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of TransDigm Group Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

 

 

TD LLC and the Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons (together with TD LLC, the “Reporting Persons”) are making this single, joint filing because they may be deemed to

 

7



 

constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

Unless otherwise indicated herein, each capitalized term used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Current Schedule 13D.

 

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 of the Current Schedule 13D is hereby amended and replaced in its entirety as set forth below.

 

(a)           Immediately following the completion of the Redemption (as hereinafter defined), each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 7,332,018 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 15.2% of the outstanding Common Stock, based on the 48,194,179 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of January 23, 2009 as reported in the Company’s Form 10-Q filed on February 4, 2009.

 

(b)           Each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to share the power to vote or to direct the vote and to dispose or to direct the disposition of the 7,332,018 shares of Common Stock it may be deemed to beneficially own.  Charles R. Kaye and Joseph P. Landy are Managing General Partners of WP and Managing Members and Co-Presidents of WP LLC and may be deemed to control the Reporting Persons.  Messrs. Kaye and Landy disclaim beneficial ownership of all shares of Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by any of the Reporting Persons.  The Reporting Persons are making this single, joint filing because they may be deemed to constitute a “person” or “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.  The filing of this Schedule

 

8



 

13D shall not be construed as an admission of such beneficial ownership or that the Reporting Persons constitute a person or group.

 

(c)           Other than the Redemption, no transactions in the Common Stock were effected by any Reporting Person since the filing of the Current Schedule 13D.

 

(d)           Except as set forth in this Item 5 and for persons referred to in Item 2, no person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.

 

(e)           Not applicable.

 

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 of the Current Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following paragraph to the end thereof:

 

 

As reported in the Current Schedule 13D, immediately after the closing of the initial public offering of the Common Stock, WP VIII and certain other stockholders of the Company that co-invested in the Company along with WP VIII in 2003, contributed their shares of Common Stock to TD LLC in exchange for membership interests in TD LLC, with each such stockholder being issued a number of membership interests equal to the number of shares of Common Stock contributed to TD LLC by such stockholder.  Pursuant to the Limited Liability Company Agreement of TD LLC, on the first business day following the three year anniversary of the initial public offering of the Common Stock, TD LLC is required to dissolve and distribute all shares of Common Stock held by it to its members.  In lieu of the dissolution of TD LLC, on March 23, 2009, TD LLC entered into a Redemption Agreement (the

 

9



 

“Redemption Agreement”) with all of its members other than WP VIII (collectively, the “Redeemed Members”).  Under the Redemption Agreement, each Redeemed Member redeemed all of its membership interests in TD LLC in exchange for a number of shares of Common Stock that corresponded to such Redeemed Member’s pro rata economic interest in TD LLC (the “Redemption”).  Other than the shares transferred to the Redeemed Members, neither TD LLC nor WP VIII sold or otherwise transferred any shares of Common Stock in connection with the Redemption.  In addition, as a result of the Redemption, WP VIII is the sole remaining member of TD LLC.  The Redeemed Members are AlpInvest Partners CS Investments 2003 C.V., AlpInvest Partners Later Stage Co-Investments Custodian II, B.V., A.S.F. Co-Investment Partners II, L.P., ML TD Holdings, LLC and Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America.

 

 

Item 7.

Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

Item 7 of the Current Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following exhibit:

 

Exhibit H.    Redemption Agreement, dated as of March 23, 2009, by and among TD Group Holdings, LLC, AlpInvest Partners CS Investments 2003 C.V., AlpInvest Partners Later Stage Co-Investments Custodian II, B.V., A.S.F. Co-Investment Partners II, L.P., ML TD Holdings, LLC and Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America, and acknowledged and agreed to by Warburg Pincus Private Equity VIII, L.P.

This Redemption Agreement, dated as of March 23, 2009 (this “Agreement”), is entered into by and among TD Group Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and the other Persons whose names are set forth on Schedule I hereto (the “Distributee Members”).  Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Article IV hereof.

 

R E C I T A L S

 

WHEREAS, on March 2, 2006, the Members entered into that certain Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Company (the “Operating Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS, on March 2, 2006, the Members entered into that certain Contribution and Exchange Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”), pursuant to which each Member contributed the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “TD Group Common Stock”), of TransDigm Group Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“TD Group”), set forth opposite such Member’s name on Schedule I of the Contribution Agreement and, in exchange therefor, each Member received a number of Class A Common Units of the Company (the “Class A Units”) equal to the number of shares of TD Group Common Stock contributed by such Member to the Company;

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 17 of the Operating Agreement, the Company will be dissolved and its affairs wound up on the first business day immediately following the Expiration Date (as such term is defined in the Operating Agreement);

 

WHEREAS, in lieu of the dissolution of the Company, the Company desires to effect the Redemption (as defined herein) and, after giving effect to the Redemption, for the Company to continue in existence with Warburg Pincus Private Equity VIII, L.P. (“Warburg Pincus”) as the sole remaining member thereof; and

 

WHEREAS, subject to the terms and on the conditions set forth in this Agreement, on the date hereof, each of the Distributee Members desires to redeem all of the Class A Units held thereby in exchange for the number of shares of TD Group Common Stock set forth opposite the name of such Distributee Member on Schedule I hereto (the “Redemption”), which Redemption shall be pro rata to each Distributee Member’s respective economic interest in the Company as represented by the number of Class A Units owned by such Distributee Member.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

 



 

ARTICLE I.
REDEMPTION OF CLASS A UNITS

 

Section 1.1.           Redemption of the Class A Units.  On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, all right, title and interest in and to all of the Class A Units owned by each Distributee Member is hereby redeemed by the Company, and such Distributee Member shall hereafter have no rights or interests therein whatsoever, and (ii) concurrently with or promptly following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company shall distribute to each Distributee Member the number of shares of TD Group Common Stock set forth opposite the name of such Distributee Member on Schedule I hereto, which shares of TD Group Common Stock represent each Distributee Member’s pro rata economic interest in the Company immediately prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.  Accordingly, and notwithstanding anything contained in the Operating Agreement to the contrary, following the Redemption, each Distributee Member shall no longer be a member of the Company and shall no longer have any obligations under the Operating Agreement other than those set forth in Sections 5(c), 16(b) and 22(m) of the Operating Agreement, and each Distributee Member agrees that the Company shall continue in existence with Warburg Pincus as the sole remaining member thereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that Sections 5(c), 16(b) and 22(m) of the Operating Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall be binding upon all of the parties hereto.

 

ARTICLE II.

Each Distributee Member, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

 

Section 2.1.           Title to Class A Units.  Such Distributee Member is the record and beneficial owner (or the custodian thereof) of all of the Class A Units that are subject to the Redemption, representing all of the Class A Units owned thereby, and such Member has good and valid title to such Class A Units free and clear of all Liens other than Liens arising under applicable federal and state securities laws or under the terms of the Operating Agreement.

 

Section 2.2.           Proceedings; Enforceability.  The general partner, board of managers or any comparable governing body of such Distributee Member has authorized the execution and delivery by such Distributee Member of this Agreement and the consummation by such Distributee Member of the transactions contemplated hereby and no other action on the part of such Distributee Member is necessary to authorize such execution and delivery by such Distributee Member or the consummation by such Distributee Member of the transactions contemplated hereby.  Upon such execution and delivery by such Distributee Member (and assuming that this Agreement is duly executed and delivered by each of the other parties hereto), this Agreement shall constitute a valid and binding obligation of such Distributee Member, enforceable against such Distributee Member in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally (whether in a proceeding in law or in equity).

 

2



 

Section 2.3.           No Affiliate.  Such Distributee Member is not an affiliate of TD Group and has not been an affiliate of TD Group in the three month period preceding the date hereof.  For purposes hereof, “affiliate” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Section 2.4.           Consents and Approvals; Conflicts.  Except with respect to filings required to be made under applicable state and federal securities laws, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Distributee Member and the consummation by such Distributee Member of the transactions contemplated hereby do not require any consent, approval or authorization of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any governmental authority or any other Person on the part of such Distributee Member or the vote, consent or approval in any manner of the holders of any security of such Distributee Member as a condition to the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Distributee Member or the consummation by such Distributee Member of the transactions contemplated hereby.  The execution and delivery by such Distributee Member of this Agreement and the consummation by such Distributee Member of the transactions contemplated hereby will not violate (a) the terms and conditions of such Distributee Member’s limited liability company operating agreement, limited partnership agreement or any analogous organizational document, or (b) any agreement or instrument to which such Distributee Member is a party or by which it is bound.

 

ARTICLE III.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

Section 3.2.           Consents and Approvals; Conflicts.  Except with respect to filings required to be made under applicable state and federal securities laws and notices to TD Group and/or the transfer agent therefor, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby do not require any consent, approval or authorization of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any governmental authority or any other Person on the part of the Company or the vote, consent or approval in any manner of the holders of any security of the Company (other than the managing member and the parties hereto) as a condition to the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company or the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby.  The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation by the

 

3



 

Company of the transactions contemplated hereby will not violate (a) the terms and conditions of the Operating Agreement (after giving effect to the terms set forth herein), or (b) any agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.
