TransDigm Inc. Announces Pricing of Tender Offer

For Its 8 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2011

CLEVELAND, OHIO, June 9, 2006 - TransDigm Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated (NYSE: TDG), announced today the consideration to be paid in its previously announced cash tender offer and consent solicitation for any and all of its outstanding 8 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 (the “Notes”). The tender offer and consent solicitation are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in TransDigm’s Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated May 25, 2006 and the related Consent and Letter of Transmittal (the “Offer Documents”).

The total consideration that will be payable in respect of Notes that are accepted for payment and that were validly tendered with consents delivered and not withdrawn on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 8, 2006, will be $1,064.08 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes. TransDigm currently expects to accept for payment, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Offer Documents, all of the validly tendered Notes on June 23, 2006, and the total consideration for the Notes was determined assuming payment on such date. In addition to the total consideration, which includes a consent payment of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes that will only be payable in respect of Notes that are accepted for payment and that were validly tendered with consents delivered and not withdrawn on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 8, 2006, TransDigm will pay accrued and unpaid interest up to but not including the payment date for the Notes purchased in the tender offer. The total consideration was determined as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, today, and was calculated based on the present value of $1,062.81 and all future interest payments on the Notes to July 15, 2006, minus accrued and unpaid interest from the last date on which interest has been paid, up to, but not including, the scheduled payment date. The present value was determined using the yield on the 7.0% U.S. Treasury Note due July 15, 2006, which was 5.298% as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, today, plus a fixed spread of 50 basis points

The tender offer will expire at midnight, New York City time, on June 22, 2006, unless extended or earlier terminated by TransDigm. In the event that the expiration date is extended, new pricing terms may be determined. Information regarding the pricing, tender and delivery procedures and the conditions to the tender offer and consent solicitation is contained in the Offer Documents.

The tender offer is subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer Documents, including TransDigm obtaining the financing necessary to pay for the Notes tendered and the consents delivered and to refinance all of the other indebtedness of TransDigm and its affiliates described in the Offer Documents.
