This Amendment No. 3 (Amendment No. 3) amends and supplements the Tender
Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by TransDigm Group Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (TransDigm), and Hook Acquisition Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm (Purchaser),
on December 3, 2015, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 filed on December 10, 2015 and Amendment No. 2 filed on December 23, 2015 (the Schedule TO). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser
to purchase each of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Shares), of Breeze-Eastern Corporation, a Delaware corporation (Breeze-Eastern), for $19.61 in cash, without interest and less any
applicable withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated December 3, 2015 (the Offer to Purchase) and the related Letter of Transmittal, copies of which are set forth as
Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B) to the Schedule TO, respectively. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 3 but not defined herein shall have the respective meaning given to such terms in the Offer to Purchase.
The items of the Schedule TO set forth below are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
Items 1 through 9 and Item 11.
Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following text thereto:
The Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the day on December 31, 2015. The Depositary for the Offer
has advised TransDigm and Purchaser that, as of the expiration of the Offer, 7,203,868 Shares were validly tendered into and not withdrawn from the Offer, representing approximately 72.6% of the outstanding Shares (which includes 38,918 Shares
tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures). In accordance with the terms of the Offer, Purchaser irrevocably accepted for purchase all Shares that were validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer, and payment
for such Shares will be made promptly in accordance with the terms of the Offer.
As a result of its irrevocable acceptance for purchase
of the Shares tendered in the Offer, Purchaser acquired a sufficient number of Shares to complete the Merger pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL without a vote of Breeze-Easterns stockholders. Accordingly, the parties intend to effect
the Merger promptly. In the Merger, Purchaser will be merged with and into Breeze-Eastern, with Breeze-Eastern surviving the Merger and continuing as an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of TransDigm, and each Share that was issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than Shares held in treasury by Breeze-Eastern, held by TransDigm or Purchaser or any of TransDigms or Breeze-Easterns respective wholly owned subsidiaries or held by
Breeze-Eastern stockholders who were entitled to demand, and who properly demanded, appraisal rights under the DGCL) will be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price.
The press release announcing the expiration and results of the Offer is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(5)(B) and is incorporated herein by
reference.
Item 12 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by
