AMENDMENT NO. 34
TO SCHEDULE 13D

This Schedule 13D, as amended (collectively, this “Schedule 13D”), relates to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of Titanium Metals Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).  The persons (the “Reporting Persons”) filing this Amendment No. 34 to this Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) report that on December 20, 2012, each of the Reporting Persons had sold all of such Reporting Person’s Shares that it beneficially owned in the Tender Offer (as defined below).

Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction
Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Items 4 and 5 are amended or supplemented as follows.
 
This Amendment relates to the cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) by ELIT Acquisition Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation (“ELIT”), to purchase all of the outstanding Shares at a purchase price of $16.50 per share, payable net to the seller in cash, without interest and subject to any withholding of taxes required by applicable law.  The Tender Offer is disclosed in the Schedule TO related to the Tender Offer and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by ELIT and its parent corporation, Precision Castparts Corp., an Oregon corporation (“PCC”), as such Schedule TO and its exhibits were amended or supplemented through December 21, 2012 (collectively the “Schedule TO”).   The description of the Tender Offer in this Amendment is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Tender Offer described in the Schedule TO and the Schedule 14D-9 that the Company filed with the SEC related to the Tender Offer, as such Schedule 14D-9 and it exhibits were amended or supplemented through December 21, 2012 (collectively the “Schedule 14D-9”).  The Schedule TO and the Schedule 14D-9 are incorporated herein by reference.

The Tender Offer, as extended, expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on December 20, 2012.  ELIT accepted for payment a total of 150,520,615 Shares that, based on the information provided by the depositary for the Tender Offer, were validly tendered and not withdrawn in the Tender Offer, representing approximately 86.0% of the outstanding Shares (which includes Shares subject to guaranteed delivery procedures).   On December 20, 2012, upon ELIT’s acceptance for payment of all Shares that were validly tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with the terms of the Tender Offer (the “Acceptance Time”), a change in control of the Company occurred.

At the Acceptance Time those of the Reporting Persons and certain affiliates who directly owned Shares, including Valhi Holding Company, Annette C. Simmons, The Combined Master Retirement Trust, Harold C. Simmons, Kronos Worldwide, Inc., Contran Corporation, NL Industries, Inc., Valhi, Inc., NL Environmental Management Services, Inc. and The Annette Simmons Grandchildren’s Trust sold all of their Shares for $16.50 per Share to ELIT in the Tender Offer, pursuant to the terms of the Support Agreement dated November 9, 2012 entered into between certain of the Reporting Persons, ELIT and PCC or the CMRT Support Letter (as defined in Amendment 33 to this Schedule 13D), as applicable.  At the Acceptance Time, all Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of any outstanding Shares.

Each previously reported executive officer or director of the Reporting Persons, as applicable, who owned Shares sold their Shares in the Tender Offer at the Acceptance Date.

As disclosed in PCC’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on January 8, 2013, on January 7, 2013, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement (as defined in Amendment No. 33 to this Schedule), ELIT merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”) with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of PCC.
