The Offer (as defined below) is being made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 18, 2025, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 28, 2025 (as amended, the "Merger Agreement"), by and among Servotronics, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Servotronics"), TransDigm Inc., a Delaware corporation ("TransDigm") and wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated, and TDG Rise Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm ("Purchaser").

The Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition (as defined below). The Offer is not subject to any conditions related to financing or required regulatory approvals. The term "Minimum Condition" is discussed in Section 15—"Certain Conditions of the Offer" and generally requires that the number of Shares that have been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer, together with the Shares (if any) then owned by TransDigm and its subsidiaries (including Purchaser), represents at least a majority of the sum of the number of then outstanding Shares and the number of Shares then reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding Servotronics performance share units ("PSUs"). The Offer is also subject to other important conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase, as described in Section 15—"Certain Conditions of the Offer."

**The Board of Directors of Servotronics (the "Servotronics Board") unanimously (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger (as defined below) (the "Transactions"), (ii) determined that the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Offer and the Merger are fair to, advisable and in the best interests of, Servotronics and its stockholders, (iii) directed that the Merger be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") and that the Merger be consummated as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time (as defined below) and (iv) recommended that Servotronics' stockholders accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser in the Offer.** 

------

A description of the reasons for the Servotronics Board's approval of the Transactions is set forth in Servotronics' Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 that is also being mailed to Servotronics' stockholders. **Servotronics' stockholders are encouraged to review carefully the Schedule 14D-9.** 

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, certain stockholders of Servotronics, including all of the directors and certain executive officers of Servotronics, entered into a tender and support agreement (the "Tender and Support Agreement"). Pursuant to the Tender and Support Agreement, each of these directors and executive officers has agreed (solely in their capacity as stockholders of Servotronics), among other things, to tender, or cause to be tendered, pursuant to the Offer, all Shares beneficially owned by such person and any additional Shares with respect to which such person becomes the beneficial owner after the date of the Tender and Support Agreement.

**How much is Purchaser offering to pay? What is the form of payment? Will I have to pay any fees or commissions?** 

We are offering to pay $47.00 per Share, net to you in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal. If you are the record owner of your Shares (i.e., a stock certificate or uncertificated stock in book-entry form has been issued to you) and you tender your Shares to us in the Offer directly, you will not have to pay any brokerage fees, commissions or similar expenses. If you own your Shares through a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, and that person tenders your Shares on your behalf, your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee may charge you a fee for doing so. You should consult your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee to determine whether any charges will apply. See the "Introduction" section of this Offer to Purchase.

**Why is Purchaser making this Offer?** 

The purpose of the Offer is for TD Group and TransDigm to acquire control of Servotronics and ultimately all of the outstanding Shares. The Offer, as the first step in the acquisition of Servotronics, is intended to facilitate the acquisition of Servotronics as promptly as practicable. If the Offer is completed, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, TransDigm expects to complete the merger of Purchaser with and into Servotronics (the "Merger"), with Servotronics surviving the Merger, as soon as practicable after the Acceptance Time (as defined below) pursuant to Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") without a vote of Servotronics' stockholders. The purpose of the Merger is to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Shares not tendered pursuant to the Offer. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each remaining issued and outstanding Share (other than Shares irrevocably accepted as payment in the Offer, treasury stock of Servotronics to be cancelled or Shares held by Servotronics stockholders properly exercising their appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL) will be converted into the right to receive an amount equal to the Offer Price. For more information, see Section 13—"Purpose of the Offer and Plans for Servotronics; No Stockholder Approval; Appraisal Rights."

**Does Purchaser have the financial resources to complete the Offer and the Merger?** 

Yes. We estimate that the total amount of cash required to complete the transactions contemplated by the Offer and the Merger, including payment of any fees, expenses and other related amounts incurred in connection with the Offer and the Merger, will be approximately $132 million. Under the Merger Agreement, TransDigm must provide Purchaser with sufficient funds necessary for Purchaser to consummate the Offer and the Merger. TransDigm, which is a wholly owned direct subsidiary of TD Group and the entity through which TD Group holds all of its operating subsidiaries, intends to provide Purchaser with the necessary funds from cash on hand. As of March 29, 2025, TD Group had $2.4 billion in cash and cash equivalents on a consolidated basis. The Offer is not subject to any financing condition. See Section 10—"Source and Amount of Funds."

**Is the financial condition of TD Group and TransDigm relevant to my decision to tender my Shares in the Offer?** 

No. We do not think our financial condition is relevant to your decision whether to tender Shares and accept the Offer because:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Offer is not subject to any financing condition;

6.0 ------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Offer is for all outstanding Shares and is being made solely for cash;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in light of our financial capacity in relation to the amount of consideration payable in the Offer as described
above, we will have sufficient funds immediately available to purchase all Shares validly tendered in the Offer and not properly withdrawn; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if we consummate the Offer, we expect to acquire any remaining Shares not purchased in the Offer for the same
cash price in the Merger.

See Section 10—"Source and Amount of Funds."

**What does the Servotronics Board think of the Offer?** 

The Board of Directors of Servotronics (the "Servotronics Board") unanimously (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger (the "Transactions"), (ii) determined that the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Offer and the Merger are fair to, advisable and in the best interests of, Servotronics and its stockholders, (iii) directed that the Merger be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL and that the Merger be consummated as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time and (iv) recommended that Servotronics' stockholders accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer.

A description of the reasons for the Servotronics Board's approval of the Offer and the Merger is set forth in Servotronics' Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 that is also being mailed to Servotronics' stockholders. **Servotronics' stockholders are encouraged to review carefully the Schedule 14D-9.** See the "Introduction" section of this Offer to Purchase.

**Have any Servotronics stockholders agreed to tender their Shares?** 

Yes. Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, certain stockholders of Servotronics, including all of the directors and certain executive officers of Servotronics (collectively, the "Supporting Stockholders"), entered into a tender and support agreement (the "Tender and Support Agreement"). As of May 30, 2025, the Supporting Stockholders beneficially owned, in the aggregate, 517,644 Shares (or approximately 20.25% of all outstanding Shares as of such date). TD Group, TransDigm and Purchaser expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of all Shares covered by the Tender and Support Agreement.

Pursuant to the Tender and Support Agreement, the Supporting Stockholders have agreed (solely in their capacity as stockholders of Servotronics), among other things, to tender, or cause to be tendered, pursuant to the Offer, all Shares beneficially owned by such Supporting Stockholder and any additional Shares with respect to which such Supporting Stockholder becomes the beneficial owner after the date of the Tender and Support Agreement, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer no later than ten business days after the receipt by such Supporting Stockholder of this Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal.

Each Supporting Stockholder has also agreed to vote, or execute consents with respect to, all of the Supporting Stockholder's Shares, among other things, (i) in favor of any proposal necessary or desirable to approve and adopt the Merger and the Merger Agreement and each of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (although no such proposals are contemplated and the Merger is expected to be completed pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL without a vote of Servotronics' stockholders); and (ii) against certain other proposals, actions or agreements, including (A) any Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement and further discussed below) and (B) any other action, agreement or proposal which would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the Offer, the Merger or any of the other Transactions.

7.0 ------

The Tender and Support Agreement also limits the ability of the Supporting Stockholders to sell or otherwise transfer, encumber, grant proxies or enter into certain arrangements in respect of the Shares.

The Tender and Support Agreement will terminate upon certain events, including any termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms. In such case, any Shares tendered by the Supporting Stockholders would be returned to the Supporting Stockholders. See the "Introduction" to this Offer to Purchase and Section 12—"The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements."

The foregoing summary of the material terms of the Tender and Support Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Tender and Support Agreement, a copy of which Purchaser has filed with the SEC as Exhibit (d)(3) to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO and is incorporated herein by reference.

**What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of having my Shares accepted for purchase in the Offer or receiving cash in exchange for my Shares in the Merger?** 

The exchange of Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer or the Merger will be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, if you hold Shares as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes and are a U.S. Holder (as defined in Section 5—"Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences"), you will generally recognize a capital gain or loss on a sale of the Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer or an exchange of Shares for cash pursuant to the Merger, in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the U.S. dollar amount you receive and your adjusted tax basis in the Shares. **We urge you to consult your own tax advisors to determine the particular tax consequences to you of participating in the Offer in light of your particular circumstances (including the application and effect of any state, local or foreign income and other tax laws).** See Section 5—"Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences."

**What are the conditions to the Offer?** 

The Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Servotronics' stockholders must validly tender and not properly withdraw prior to the expiration of the
Offer that number of Shares that, together with the Shares then owned by TransDigm and its subsidiaries (including Purchaser) (if any), represents at least a majority of the sum of the number of then outstanding Shares and the number of Shares then
reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding Servotronics performance share units (the "Minimum Condition").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Merger Agreement shall not have been validly terminated in accordance with its terms (the "Termination
Condition").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The consummation of the Offer or the Merger will not then be restrained, enjoined or prohibited by any Order (as
defined in the Merger Agreement) of any Governmental Entity (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or there shall be in effect any law enacted or promulgated by any Governmental Entity that prevents or makes illegal the consummation of the Offer or
the Merger.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• No representation and warranty of Servotronics (A) contained in Section 3.02(a) and
(b) (Capitalization) of the Merger Agreement shall fail to be true and correct in all respects (other than exceptions that are, individually or in the aggregate, de minimis) at and as of the Expiration Date (as defined below) as though made at
and as of the Expiration Date, except for representations and warranties that relate to a specific date or time (which need only be so true and correct in all respects (other than exceptions that are, individually or in the aggregate, de minimis) as
of such date or time); (B) contained in Section 3.01 (Corporate Organization), Section 3.03 (Authority; Execution and Delivery; Enforceability), Section 3.04(a)(i) (No Conflicts), the first sentence of Section 3.14(c) (Material
Contracts) and Section 3.17 (Broker's Fees) of the Merger Agreement shall fail to be true and correct in all material

8.0 ------

respects at and as of the Expiration Date as though made at and as of the Expiration Date, except for representations and warranties that relate to a specific date or time (which need only be so true and correct in all material respects as of such date or time); or (C) set forth in ARTICLE III (other than the representations and warranties referenced in the immediately foregoing clauses (A) and (B)) of the Merger Agreement, without giving effect to any qualifications as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect (as defined below) contained therein, shall fail to be true and correct at and as of the Expiration Date as though made at and as of the Expiration Date, except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specific date or time (which need only be so true and correct as of such date or time), except as has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate with all other failures to be true or correct, a Material Adverse Effect. <br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Servotronics will not have breached or failed to perform or comply with in all material respects all covenants
and agreements required to be performed or complied with by it under the Merger Agreement at or prior to the Expiration Date and such breach or failure shall not have been cured.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Since the date of the Merger Agreement, there shall not have occurred and be continuing any change, event,
development, condition, occurrence or effect that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Additional Conditions* —The Offer is also subject to additional conditions, as described in
Section 15—"Certain Conditions of the Offer." **  

We may not waive the Minimum Condition or the Termination Condition. However, we may waive any other condition in our sole discretion without Servotronics' consent, subject to compliance with appliable law. The Offer is not subject to any conditions related to financing or required regulatory approvals.

**Do I have to vote to approve the Offer or the Merger?** 

Your vote is not required to approve the Offer. You simply need to tender your Shares if you choose to do so. However, the Offer can be completed only if, among other things, the Minimum Condition is satisfied.

If the Offer is completed, we expect that the Merger will be completed as soon as practicable following the time that Purchaser irrevocably accepts for purchase all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer (the "Acceptance Time") pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL without a vote of Servotronics' stockholders.

**How long do I have to decide whether to tender my Shares in the Offer?** 

Unless we extend or terminate the Offer in accordance with the Merger Agreement, you will have until one minute following 11:59 p.m., New York City Time, on June 30, 2025, to tender your Shares in the Offer. When we make reference to "the expiration of the Offer" or the "Expiration Date" anywhere in this Offer to Purchase, this is the time to which we are referring, including, if extended, any later time that may apply or, if terminated, any earlier time that may apply. See Section 1—"Terms of the Offer" and Section 3—"Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares."

Purchaser is not providing for guaranteed delivery procedures. Therefore, Servotronics stockholders must allow sufficient time for the necessary tender procedures to be completed during normal business hours of the Book-Entry Transfer Facility (as defined below), which end earlier than the time of expiration on the Expiration Date. Normal business hours of the Book-Entry Transfer Facility are between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, Monday through Friday, other than holidays.

9.0 ------

**Servotronics stockholders must tender their Shares in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3 of this Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal prior to the Expiration Date. Tenders received by the Depositary after the Expiration Date will be disregarded and of no effect.** 

**Can the Offer be extended and, if so, under what circumstances?** 

Yes. The Merger Agreement provides that so long as neither Servotronics nor TransDigm terminates the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We must extend the Offer on one or more occasions for periods of up to 10 business days if at any then scheduled
Expiration Date any of the conditions to our obligation to accept for purchase and pay for the Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer (the "Offer Conditions") is not satisfied or, if permitted under the
Merger Agreement, waived, but if at any scheduled Expiration Date the only Offer Condition not satisfied is the Minimum Condition, then we are not required to extend the Offer for more than two subsequent extension periods of 10 business days each.
Further, no extension of the Offer may extend past November 18, 2025 (as it may be extended, the "Outside Date") without Servotronics' consent (provided, if all Offer Conditions, other than the condition described in paragraph
(c)(i) of Annex I related to legal restraints, has been satisfied or is capable of being satisfied as of such date, the Outside Date may be extended by either Servotronics or TransDigm for a period of up to three months).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We must extend the Offer for any period or periods required by any applicable law, rule, interpretation or
position of the SEC or its staff or the NYSE American.

See Section 1—"Terms of the Offer" of this Offer to Purchase for more details on our obligation and ability to extend the Offer.

**How long will it take to complete the proposed transaction?** 

The timing of completing the Offer and the Merger will depend on a variety of factors. We announced the Offer to facilitate the acquisition of Servotronics as promptly as practicable. If the conditions to the Offer are satisfied, we expect that the Offer will be consummated promptly following the Expiration Date. If the Offer is completed, we expect that the Merger will be completed as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL without a vote of Servotronics' stockholders.

**Will the Purchaser provide a subsequent offering period?** 

We will not provide a subsequent offering period. Pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL, we expect to complete the Merger as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time without a subsequent offering period.

**How will I be notified if the Offer is extended?** 

If we extend the Offer, we will so inform Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the depositary for the Offer (the "Depositary"), and will make a public announcement of the extension not later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on the business day after the day on which the Offer was scheduled to expire. See Section 1—"Terms of the Offer."

**How do I tender my Shares?** 

To tender Shares in the Offer, you must either (i) if you hold your Shares directly as the record owner (i.e., a stock certificate or uncertificated stock in book-entry form has been issued to you), complete and sign the Letter of Transmittal for the Offer, which is enclosed with this Offer to Purchase, in accordance with the instructions

10.0 ------

contained in the Letter of Transmittal, mail or deliver the Letter of Transmittal or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent's Message (as defined below), and any other required documents to the Depositary, and either deliver the certificates for your Shares to the Depositary along with the Letter of Transmittal or tender your Shares by book-entry transfer by following the procedures described in Section 3—"Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares" prior to the expiration of the Offer, or (ii) if you hold your Shares in "street name," request that your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee effect the transaction for you.

For a complete discussion of the procedures for tendering your Shares, see Section 3—"Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares."

**Until what time can I withdraw previously tendered Shares?** 

You can withdraw your previously tendered Shares at any time prior to the Expiration Date, and, if we have not agreed to accept your Shares for payment within 60 days after commencement of the Offer (i.e., by August 1, 2025), you can withdraw them at any time after that time until we accept Shares for payment. For a complete discussion of the procedures for withdrawing your Shares, see Section 4—"Withdrawal Rights."

**How do I withdraw previously tendered Shares?** 

To withdraw previously tendered Shares, you must deliver a written notice of withdrawal with the required information to the Depositary while you still have the right to withdraw Shares. If you tendered Shares by giving instructions to a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, you must instruct the broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee to arrange for the withdrawal of your Shares, and the broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee must effectively withdraw those Shares while you still have the right to withdraw Shares. For a complete discussion of the procedures for withdrawing your Shares, see Section 4 —"Withdrawal Rights."

**When and how will I be paid for my tendered Shares?** 

Purchaser will pay for all validly tendered and not properly withdrawn Shares promptly after the Expiration Date, subject to the terms of the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Offer, as set forth in Section 15—"Certain Conditions of the Offer."

We will pay for your validly tendered and not properly withdrawn Shares by depositing the purchase price with the Depositary, which will act as your agent for the purpose of receiving payments from us and transmitting payments to you. In all cases, payment for tendered Shares will be made only after timely receipt by the Depositary of (i) the certificates for those Shares or a confirmation of a book-entry transfer of those Shares as described in Section 3—"Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares," (ii) the Letter of Transmittal, properly completed and duly executed, together with any required signature guarantees or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent's Message and (iii) any other required documents for the Shares. See Section 2—"Acceptance for Purchase and Payment for Shares."

**Will the Offer be followed by the Merger if all of the Shares are not tendered in the Offer?** 

If the Minimum Condition is satisfied and, upon satisfaction or waiver of the other conditions to the Offer, we accept and purchase Shares tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, we expect to effect the Merger as soon as practicable pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL without a vote of Servotronics' stockholders. If the Merger takes place, all remaining stockholders of Servotronics (other than Shares irrevocably accepted as payment in the Offer, treasury stock of Servotronics to be cancelled or Shares held by Servotronics

11.0 ------

stockholders properly exercising their appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL) will receive an amount equal to the Offer Price, and Servotronics' will become a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm. See the "Introduction" section of this Offer to Purchase.

**If the Offer is completed, will Servotronics continue as a public company?** 

No. Following the purchase of Shares in the Offer, we expect to complete the Merger as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL without a vote of Servotronics' stockholders. If the Merger takes place, we will own all of the outstanding capital stock of Servotronics and Servotronics will no longer be a public company. See Section 7—"Certain Effects of the Offer."

**If I decide not to tender, how will the Offer affect my Shares?** 

If you decide not to tender your Shares in the Offer and we accept and purchase Shares pursuant to the Offer, we expect that the Merger will be completed as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time. In the Merger, Shares will be converted into the right to receive an amount equal to the Offer Price. Unless you validly exercise your appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL, you will receive the same amount of cash per Share in the Merger that you would have received had you tendered your Shares in the Offer. Therefore, if the Merger takes place, and you do not validly exercise your appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL, the only difference to you between tendering your Shares and not tendering your Shares is that you may be paid earlier if you tender your Shares (although, because we expect the Merger will be completed pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL as soon as practicable after the Acceptance Time, we do not expect there to be significant time between the consummation of the Offer and the consummation of the Merger). See Section 7—"Certain Effects of the Offer."

**Are appraisal rights available in either the Offer or the Merger?** 

You do not have appraisal rights in connection with the Offer.

However, pursuant to the DGCL, if the Offer is successful and the Merger is consummated, stockholders of Servotronics who continuously held Shares from the date of the demand for appraisal through the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time") who (i) did not tender their Shares in the Offer; (ii) follow the procedures set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL; and (iii) do not thereafter withdraw their demand for appraisal of such Shares or otherwise lose their appraisal rights, in each case in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, will be entitled to receive appraisal rights for the "fair value" of their Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL. The "fair value" of such Shares as of the Effective Time could be more than, the same as or less than the consideration to be received pursuant to the Merger. The foregoing summary of the rights of Servotronics' stockholders under the DGCL is qualified in its entirety by the full text of Section 262 of the DGCL, which will be included as Annex B to Servotronics' Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 that is being mailed to you and which is incorporated herein by reference. **The Schedule 14D-9 will constitute the formal notice of appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL.** For more information, see Section 13—"Purpose of the Offer and Plans for Servotronics; No Stockholder Approval; Appraisal Rights."

**What is the market value of my Shares as of a recent date?** 

On May 16, 2025, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement of the execution of the Merger Agreement, the closing price per Share reported on the NYSE American was $10.29. On May 30, 2025, the last full trading day prior to our commencement of the Offer, the closing price per Share reported on the NYSE American was $46.68. You are encouraged to obtain a recent quotation for the Shares before deciding whether to tender your Shares. See Section 6—"Price Range of Shares."

12.0 ------

**How will outstanding Restricted Shares and PSUs be treated?** 

Each Share subject to vesting, repurchase or other lapse of restrictions (a "Restricted Share") that is outstanding under Servotronics' 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Servotronics Equity Incentive Plan") is subject to transfer restrictions by their terms and thus cannot be tendered in the Offer. Rather, immediately prior to the Effective Time, Restricted Shares will vest in full, become free of restrictions and become cancelled and converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the per share Merger Consideration (as defined below), without interest and less all applicable tax withholdings.

Performance share units ("PSUs") are not outstanding Shares and thus cannot be tendered in the Offer. Rather, each PSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will, whether vested or unvested, be cancelled and entitle the holder of such PSU to receive an amount in cash, with respect to the Shares underlying such PSU (at target level of attainment of the applicable performance criteria) equal to the product of (i) the per share Merger Consideration and (ii) the number of Shares underlying such PSU payable in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, without interest and less all applicable tax withholdings.

**How will participants in Servotronics' ESOP be treated in the Offer?** 

Although the ESOP trustees (the "Trustees") are the record holders of all Shares in the ESOP, we have been advised by Servotronics that the ESOP Trust Agreement provides that ESOP participants have the right to instruct the Trustees whether or not to tender Shares allocated to their accounts, and that the Trustees must follow participants' instructions as long as the Trustees determine that (a) participants were provided with all necessary information regarding the Offer, and clearly false or misleading information was not distributed to them, and (b) following the participants' instructions would not result in a violation of ERISA, including the Trustees' fiduciary duties. The Trustees, or an independent trustee appointed by Servotronics for this purpose, will determine whether to tender unallocated Shares and Shares for which no tender instructions are received.

If Shares held in the ESOP are validly tendered and not withdrawn, and the Offer is completed, the Offer Price for such Shares will be paid to the ESOP and allocated to the applicable participants' accounts. Any Shares held in the ESOP that are not tendered in the Offer, if the Merger is completed, will be converted at the Effective Time into the right of the ESOP to receive the Offer Price for such Shares, which would also be allocated to the applicable participants' accounts. The procedures for instructing the Trustees to tender all or a portion of the Shares allocated to a participant's ESOP account vary slightly from the procedures for tendering and/or withdrawing Shares held outside of the ESOP, so participants should carefully review all information provided to them by or on behalf of the Trustees.

The Merger Agreement provides that the ESOP will be terminated as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, which is expected to result in a distribution of all participants' accounts. Participants will receive additional information from Servotronics or the ESOP's record-keeper regarding their options respecting the distribution of their accounts upon the plan's termination. Participants are urged to consult with their own advisors with respect to these options and the tax and other consequences thereof.

**Where can I find more information about Servotronics and TransDigm?** 

You can find more information about Servotronics and TransDigm from various sources described in Section 8—"Certain Information Concerning Servotronics" and Section 9—"Certain Information Concerning TD Group, TransDigm and Purchaser."

**Who should I call if I have questions about the Offer?** 

You may call Okapi Partners LLC at (844) 203-3605 or email Okapi Partners LLC at info@okapipartners.com. Okapi Partners LLC is acting as the information agent (the "Information Agent") for the Offer. See the back cover of this Offer to Purchase.

To the Holders of Shares of

Common Stock of Servotronics:

**INTRODUCTION** 

TDG Rise Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Purchaser") and a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Inc., a Delaware corporation ("TransDigm") and wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated ("TD Group"), is offering to purchase (the "Offer") all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.20 per share (the "Shares"), of Servotronics, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Servotronics"), at a price of $47.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any required withholding taxes (the "Offer Price"), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase and in the related letter of transmittal that accompanies this Offer to Purchase (the "Letter of Transmittal"). Unless the context requires otherwise, the terms "we," "us" and "our" refer to Purchaser, TransDigm and TD Group.

If you are the record holder of your Shares (i.e., a stock certificate or uncertificated stock in book-entry form has been issued to you), you will not be required to pay brokerage fees, commissions or, except as set forth in Instruction 6 of the Letter of Transmittal, stock transfer taxes on the exchange of Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer. However, if you do not complete and sign the IRS Form W-9 or the appropriate IRS Form W-8 that is included in the Letter of Transmittal (or other applicable form), you may be subject to backup withholding at a current rate of 24% on the gross proceeds payable to you. See Section 3—"Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares." Backup withholding is not an additional tax and any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be refunded or credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the Internal Revenue Service. Stockholders with Shares held in street name by a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee should consult with their nominee to determine if they will be charged any transaction fees. We will pay all charges and expenses of Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the "Depositary"), and Okapi Partners LLC, the information agent for the Offer (the "Information Agent"), incurred in connection with the Offer. See Section 17—"Fees and Expenses."

The Offer is being made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 18, 2025, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 28, 2025 (as amended, the "Merger Agreement"), by and among Servotronics, TransDigm and Purchaser. The Merger Agreement provides that, following completion of the Offer and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, and in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL, at the Effective Time, Purchaser will be merged with and into Servotronics, the separate existence of Purchaser will cease, and Servotronics will continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the "Merger"). The Merger will become effective as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time without a vote of Servotronics' stockholders in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL, upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Merger. The Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition. The Offer is not subject to any conditions related to financing or required regulatory approvals.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each Share (other than Shares (a) held in the treasury of Servotronics, (b) irrevocably accepted for payment in the Offer or (c) held by a holder who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such Shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to such Shares) will be automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price (the "Merger Consideration"), subject to any applicable withholding of taxes and without interest.

The Merger Agreement is more fully described in Section 12—"The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements."

The term "Minimum Condition" generally requires that the number of Shares that have been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer, together with the Shares (if any) then owned by

------

TransDigm and its subsidiaries (including Purchaser), represents at least a majority of the sum of the number of then outstanding Shares and the number of Shares then reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding Servotronics performance share units ("PSUs"). See Section 15— "Certain Conditions of the Offer."

The Offer is also subject to other important conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase, as described in Section 15—"Certain Conditions of the Offer."

Servotronics has advised us that at the close of business on May 30, 2025, (i) 2,556,502 Shares were issued and outstanding (including Restricted Shares, but not including shares held in treasury), (ii) 72,550 Shares were issued and held by Servotronics in its treasury, and (iii) 52,689 Shares were reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding Company PSUs. As of the date of this Offer to Purchase, none of TD Group, TransDigm nor Purchaser beneficially owns any Shares.

**The Board of Directors of Servotronics (the "Servotronics Board") unanimously (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger (the "Transactions"), (ii) determined that the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Offer and the Merger are fair to, advisable and in the best interests of, Servotronics and its stockholders, (iii) directed that the Merger be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") and that the Merger be consummated as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time (as defined below) and (iv) recommended that Servotronics' stockholders accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer.** 

A description of the reasons for the Servotronics Board's approval of the Offer and the Merger is set forth in Servotronics' Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 that is being mailed to Servotronics' stockholders together with this Offer to Purchase (the "Schedule 14D-9"). **Servotronics' stockholders are encouraged to review carefully the Schedule 14D-9, together with this Offer to Purchase.**

We have entered into a tender and support agreement (the "Tender and Support Agreement") with certain stockholders, including all of the directors and certain executive officers of Servotronics (collectively, the "Supporting Stockholders"), pursuant to which the Supporting Stockholders have agreed to tender all Shares beneficially owned by them and any additional Shares with respect to which such Supporting Stockholder becomes the beneficial owner after the date of the Tender and Support Agreement in the Offer and otherwise support the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. As of May 30, 2025, the Supporting Stockholders beneficially owned, in the aggregate, 517,644 Shares (or approximately 20.25% of all outstanding Shares as of such date). The Tender and Support Agreement will terminate upon certain events, including any termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms. In such case, any Shares tendered by the Supporting Stockholders would be returned to the Supporting Stockholders. See Section 12—"The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements."

**This Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal contain important information that should be read carefully in its entirety before any decision is made with respect to the Offer.**

**THE TENDER OFFER** 

**1. Terms of the Offer.** 

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of any such extension or amendment), Purchaser will accept for purchase and pay for all Shares validly tendered prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below) and not properly withdrawn as permitted pursuant to the procedures described in Section 4—"Withdrawal Rights." The Offer will expire at one minute after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 30, 2025, unless Purchaser, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, extends the period during which the Offer is open, in which event the expiration date of the Offer is the latest time and date at which the Offer, as so extended, expires (that time and date, including any such extensions, the "expiration of the Offer" or the "Expiration Date").

The Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition. The Offer is also subject to other important conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase, as described in Section 15—"Certain Conditions of the Offer." The Offer is not subject to any conditions related to financing or required regulatory approvals.

The Merger Agreement provides that so long as neither Servotronics nor TransDigm terminates the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We must extend the Offer on one or more occasions for periods of up to 10 business days if at any then scheduled
Expiration Date any of the conditions to our obligation to accept for purchase and pay for the Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer (the "Offer Conditions") is not satisfied or, if permitted under the
Merger Agreement, waived, but if at any scheduled Expiration Date the only Offer Condition not satisfied is the Minimum Condition, then we are not required to extend the Offer for more than two subsequent extension periods of 10 business days each.
Further, no extension of the Offer may extend past the Outside Date, November 18, 2025, without Servotronics' consent (provided, if all Offer Conditions, other than the condition described in paragraph (c)(i) of Annex I related to legal
restraints, has been satisfied or is capable of being satisfied as of such date, the Outside Date may be extended by either Servotronics or TransDigm for a period of up to three months).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We must extend the Offer for any period or periods required by any applicable law, rule, interpretation or
position of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") or its staff or by the NYSE American.

Any extension of the Offer will be followed as promptly as practicable by a public announcement thereof. Any such announcement will be made no later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on the next business day after the latest scheduled Expiration Date. During any such extension, all Shares previously tendered and not properly withdrawn will remain subject to the Offer, subject to the rights of a tendering stockholder to withdraw that stockholder's Shares. Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn at any time prior to the Expiration Date and, unless previously accepted for purchase by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer, may also be withdrawn at any time after August 1, 2025. For a withdrawal to be effective, a written notice of withdrawal must be timely received by the Depositary at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase. Any such notice of withdrawal must specify the name of the person who tendered the Shares to be withdrawn, the number of Shares to be withdrawn and the name of the registered holder of those Shares, if different than that of the person who tendered those Shares. If Share Certificates (as defined below) evidencing Shares to be withdrawn have been delivered or otherwise identified to the Depositary, then, prior to the physical release of those Share Certificates, the serial numbers shown on the Share Certificates must be submitted to the Depositary and the signatures on the notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution (as defined in Section 3—"Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares" below), unless the Shares have been tendered for the account of an Eligible Institution. If Shares have been tendered pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer as set forth in Section 3—"Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares" below, any notice of

------

withdrawal must also specify the name and number of the account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility (as defined below) to be credited with the withdrawn Shares. All questions as to validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance for purchase of any tendered Shares will be determined by Purchaser, in its sole discretion, which determination will be final and binding upon the tendering party, subject to the rights of holders of Shares to challenge such determination with respect to their Shares in a court of competent jurisdiction and any subsequent judgment of any such court.

Subject to the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the Merger Agreement, TransDigm and Purchaser expressly reserve the right (in their sole discretion) to (i) increase the Offer Price, (ii) waive, in whole or in part, any Offer Condition (other than the Minimum Condition and the Termination Condition, which may not be waived) and (iii) make any other changes in the terms and conditions of the Offer. However, without the prior written consent of Servotronics, TransDigm and Purchaser may not (a) decrease the Offer Price, (b) change the form of consideration payable in the Offer, (c) reduce the maximum number of Shares sought to be purchased in the Offer, (d) amend or modify the Minimum Condition or the Termination Condition, (e) amend or modify any other terms of the Offer in a manner adverse to the holders of Shares, (f) impose conditions to the Offer that are in addition to the Offer Conditions, (g) except as permitted under the Merger Agreement, terminate, accelerate or otherwise modify or amend the Offer to accelerate the Expiration Date, or (h) provide any "subsequent offering period" in accordance with Rule 14d-11 of the Exchange Act (as defined below).

The rights reserved by TransDigm and Purchaser as described in the immediately preceding paragraph are in addition to TransDigm's and Purchaser's rights described in Section 15—"Certain Conditions of the Offer." Any extension, delay, termination, waiver or amendment of the Offer will be followed as promptly as practicable by public announcement if required.

If, subject to the Merger Agreement, Purchaser makes a material change in the terms of the Offer or the information concerning the Offer, or waives a material Offer Condition, Purchaser will disseminate additional tender offer materials and extend the Offer if and to the extent required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the "Exchange Act"). The minimum period during which an offer must remain open following material changes in the terms of the offer or the information concerning the offer, other than a change in the consideration offered or a change in the percentage of securities sought, will depend upon the facts and circumstances, including the relative materiality of the changes to the terms or information. With respect to a change in the consideration offered or a change in the percentage of securities sought, an offer generally must remain open for a minimum of 10 business days following the dissemination of the applicable information to stockholders.

Servotronics has provided Purchaser with Servotronics' stockholder list, security position listings and other information for the purpose of disseminating this Offer to Purchase to holders of Shares. This Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal, together with other related documents, will be mailed to record holders of Shares whose names appear on Servotronics' stockholder list and will be furnished, for subsequent transmittal to beneficial owners of Shares, to brokers, dealers, commercial banks, trust companies and other nominees whose names, or the names of whose nominees, appear on the stockholder list or, if applicable, who are listed as participants in a clearing agency's security position listing.

**2. Acceptance for Purchase and Payment for Shares.** 

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of any such extension or amendment), Purchaser will, promptly following the Expiration Date, accept for payment (such time of acceptance, the "Acceptance Time") and, promptly following the Acceptance Time, pay for, all Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date. Purchaser expressly reserves the right, but subject to applicable laws (including Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act), to delay acceptance for, and thereby delay payment for, Shares in order to comply with applicable laws or if any of the

------

conditions referred to in Section 15—"Certain Conditions of the Offer" have not been satisfied. For a description of Purchaser's right to terminate the Offer and not accept for purchase or pay for Shares or to delay acceptance for purchase or payment for Shares, see Section 15—"Certain Conditions of the Offer."

In all cases, payment for Shares accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offer will be made only after timely receipt by the Depositary of (i) the certificates evidencing those Shares (the "Share Certificates") or confirmation of a book-entry transfer of the Shares (a "Book-Entry Confirmation") into the Depositary's account at The Depository Trust Company (the "Book-Entry Transfer Facility") pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 3—"Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares," (ii) the Letter of Transmittal, properly completed and duly executed, with any required signature guarantees or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent's Message (as defined below) in lieu of the Letter of Transmittal and (iii) any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal.

The term "Agent's Message" means a message, transmitted by the Book-Entry Transfer Facility to, and received by, the Depositary and forming a part of a Book-Entry Confirmation, that states that the Book-Entry Transfer Facility has received an express acknowledgment from the participant in the Book-Entry Transfer Facility tendering the Shares that are the subject of that Book-Entry Confirmation, that the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Letter of Transmittal and that Purchaser may enforce that agreement against the participant. The term "Agent's Message" also includes any hard copy printout evidencing that message generated by a computer terminal maintained at the Depositary's office.

For purposes of the Offer, Purchaser will be deemed to have accepted for purchase, and thereby purchased, Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn as, if and when Purchaser gives oral or written notice to the Depositary of Purchaser's acceptance for purchase of those Shares pursuant to the Offer. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, payment for Shares accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offer will be made by deposit of the purchase price for those Shares with the Depositary, which will act as agent for tendering stockholders for the purpose of receiving payments from Purchaser and transmitting payments to tendering stockholders whose Shares have been accepted for purchase. If Purchaser extends the Offer, is delayed in its acceptance for purchase of Shares or is unable to accept Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer for any reason, then, without prejudice to Purchaser's rights under the Offer, the Depositary may, nevertheless, on behalf of Purchaser, retain tendered Shares, and those Shares may be withdrawn only to the extent that tendering stockholders are entitled to withdrawal rights as described below under Section 4—"Withdrawal Rights" and as otherwise required by Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act. **Under no circumstances will Purchaser pay interest on the consideration paid for tendered Shares, regardless of any extension of or amendment to the Offer or any delay in making payment.** 

If any tendered Shares are not accepted for purchase for any reason pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Offer, or if Share Certificates are submitted evidencing more Shares than are tendered, Share Certificates evidencing unpurchased Shares will be returned, without expense to the tendering stockholder (or, Shares tendered by book-entry transfer into the Depositary's account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility pursuant to the procedure set forth in Section 3—"Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares" will be credited to an account maintained at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility), promptly following the expiration or termination of the Offer.

**3. Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares.** 

*Valid Tenders*

In order for Shares to be validly tendered pursuant to the Offer, the Letter of Transmittal, properly completed and duly executed, together with any required signature guarantees (or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent's Message in lieu of the Letter of Transmittal) and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal must be received by the Depositary at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this Offer to

------

Purchase prior to the Expiration Date and either (a) the Share Certificates evidencing the tendered Shares must be received by the Depositary at that address prior to the Expiration Date or (b) the Shares must be tendered pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer described below and a Book-Entry Confirmation must be received by the Depositary, in each case prior to the Expiration Date. 

*Book-Entry Transfer*

The Depositary has established or will establish an account with respect to the Shares at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility for purposes of the Offer. Any financial institution that is a participant in the system of the Book-Entry Transfer Facility may make a book-entry delivery of Shares by causing the Book-Entry Transfer Facility to transfer those Shares into the Depositary's account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility in accordance with the Book-Entry Transfer Facility's procedures for such a transfer. However, although delivery of Shares may be effected through book-entry transfer at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility, either an Agent's Message or the Letter of Transmittal, properly completed and duly executed, together with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents must, in any case, be transmitted to, and received by, the Depositary at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase prior to the Expiration Date. Delivery of documents to the Book-Entry Transfer Facility does not constitute delivery to the Depositary. 

*No Guaranteed Delivery* 

Purchaser is not providing for guaranteed delivery procedures. Therefore, Servotronics stockholders must allow sufficient time for the necessary tender procedures to be completed during normal business hours of the Book-Entry Transfer Facility, which end earlier than the time of expiration on the Expiration Date. Normal business hours of the Book-Entry Transfer Facility are between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, Monday through Friday, other than holidays. **Servotronics stockholders must tender their Shares in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3 and the related Letter of Transmittal prior to the Expiration Date. Tenders received by the Depositary after the Expiration Date will be disregarded and of no effect.**

*Signature Guarantees*

No signature guarantee is required on the Letter of Transmittal (i) if the Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered holder (which, for purposes of this Section 3, includes any participant in the Book-Entry Transfer Facility's systems whose name appears on a security position listing as the owner of the Shares) of the Shares tendered therewith, unless that registered holder has completed either the box entitled "Special Delivery Instructions" or the box entitled "Special Payment Instructions" on the Letter of Transmittal or (ii) if the Shares are tendered for the account of a financial institution (including most commercial banks, savings and loan associations and brokerage houses) that is a member of a recognized Medallion Program approved by The Securities Transfer Association, Inc., including the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program (STAMP), the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (SEMP) and the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Medallion Signature Program (MSP), or any other "eligible guarantor institution," as that term is defined in Rule 17Ad-15 of the Exchange Act (each, an "Eligible Institution"). In all other cases, all signatures on a Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution, as described in Instruction 1 of the Letter of Transmittal. If a Share Certificate is registered in the name of a person or persons other than the signatory of the Letter of Transmittal, or if payment is to be made or delivered to, or a Share Certificate not accepted for purchase or not tendered is to be issued in the name of, a person other than the registered holder of the Share Certificate surrendered, then the Share Certificate must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate duly executed stock powers, in either case signed exactly as the name of the registered holder appears on the Share Certificate, with the signature on that Share Certificate or stock powers guaranteed by an Eligible Institution as provided in the Letter of Transmittal. See Instructions 5 and 7 of the Letter of Transmittal. 

------

**The method of delivery of the Shares, the Share Certificates and all other required documents (including delivery through the Book-Entry Transfer Facility) is at the option and risk of the tendering stockholder and the risk of loss of the Shares, Share Certificates and other documents will pass only after the Depositary has actually received the Shares or Share Certificates (including, in the case of a book-entry transfer, by Book-Entry Confirmation). If delivery is by mail, it is recommended that all such documents be sent by properly insured registered mail with return receipt requested. In all cases, sufficient time should be allowed to ensure timely delivery.** 

*Tender Constitutes a Binding Agreement*

A tender of Shares pursuant to any of the procedures described above will constitute the tendering stockholder's acceptance of the terms and conditions of the Offer, as well as the tendering stockholder's representation and warranty that (i) the tendering stockholder has full power and authority to tender, sell, assign and transfer the Shares (and any and all other Shares or other securities issued or issuable in respect of those Shares on or after the date of this Offer to Purchase), (ii) when the Shares and any such other securities are accepted for purchase by Purchaser, Purchaser will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances and those Shares and any such other securities will not be subject to any adverse claim and (iii) the tendering stockholder is the registered owner of the Shares, or the Share Certificates have been endorsed to the tendering stockholder in blank, or the tendering stockholder is a participant in the Book-Entry Transfer Facility whose name appears on a security position listing as the owner of the Shares.

The acceptance for purchase by Purchaser of Shares pursuant to any of the procedures described above will constitute a binding agreement between the tendering stockholder and Purchaser upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

*Determination of Validity* 

Our interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer (including the accompanying Letter of Transmittal and the instructions thereto) will be final and binding to the fullest extent permitted by law. All questions as to the form of documents (including notices of withdrawal) and the validity, form and eligibility (including time of receipt) of any tender of Shares will be determined by Purchaser, in its sole discretion, which determination will be final and binding upon the tendering party, subject to the rights of holders of Shares to challenge such determination with respect to their Shares in a court of competent jurisdiction and any subsequent judgment of any such court. Purchaser reserves the absolute right to reject any and all tenders determined by it not to be in proper form or the acceptance of or payment for which may, in the opinion of Purchaser, be unlawful. Purchaser also reserves the absolute right to waive any condition of the Offer to the extent permitted by the Merger Agreement (other than the Minimum Condition and the Termination Condition, which may not be waived by Purchaser) and applicable law or any defect or irregularity in the tender of any Shares of any particular stockholder, whether or not similar defects or irregularities are waived in the case of other stockholders. No tender of Shares will be deemed to have been validly made until all defects and irregularities have been cured or waived to the satisfaction of Purchaser. **None of TransDigm, Purchaser, Servotronics, the Depositary, Okapi Partners LLC (the "Information Agent") or any other person is or will be under any duty to give any notification of any defects or irregularities in tenders and none of them will incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.**

*Appointment* 

By executing the Letter of Transmittal or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, by delivery of an Agent's Message in lieu of a Letter of Transmittal, the tendering stockholder irrevocably appoints designees of Purchaser as that stockholder's agents, attorneys-in-fact and proxies, each with full power of substitution, to the full extent of the stockholder's rights with respect to the Shares tendered by the stockholder and accepted for purchase by Purchaser and with respect to any and all other Shares or other securities or rights issued or issuable in respect of

------

the Shares on or after the date of this Offer to Purchase. These proxies will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and applicable federal securities laws. All such powers of attorney and proxies will be considered irrevocable and coupled with an interest in the tendered Shares and other securities or rights issued or issuable in respect of those Shares. That appointment will be effective when, and only to the extent that, Purchaser accepts for payment Shares tendered by the stockholder as provided herein. Upon that appointment: 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• all prior powers of attorney, proxies and consents given by that stockholder with respect to those Shares or
other securities or rights will be revoked, without further action;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• no subsequent powers of attorney, proxies, consents or revocations may be given nor any subsequent written
consent executed by the stockholder (and, if given or executed, will not be deemed to be effective) with respect thereto; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the designees of Purchaser will thereby be empowered to exercise all voting, consent and other rights of the
stockholder as they in their sole discretion may deem proper at any annual or special meeting of Servotronics' stockholders or any adjournment or postponement thereof, by written consent in lieu of any such meeting or otherwise.

Purchaser reserves the right to require that, in order for Shares to be deemed validly tendered, immediately upon Purchaser's acceptance for purchase of those Shares, Purchaser must be able to exercise full voting, consent and other rights, to the extent permitted under applicable law, with respect to those Shares and other related securities or rights, including voting at any meeting of stockholders or executing a written consent concerning any matter. The Offer does not constitute a solicitation of proxies or consents from Servotronics' stockholders.

*Backup Withholding*.

To avoid backup withholding of U.S. federal income tax on payments made pursuant to the Offer, each eligible tendering U.S. Holder (as defined in Section 5—"Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences") should complete and return the Substitute Form W-9 included with the Letter of Transmittal. Eligible tendering Non-U.S. Holders (as defined in Section 5—"Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences") should complete and submit the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable IRS Form W-8), which can be obtained from the Depositary or at www.irs.gov. For a more detailed discussion of backup withholding, see Section 5—"Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences."

**4. Withdrawal Rights.** 

Except as otherwise described in this Section 4, tenders of Shares made pursuant to the Offer are irrevocable. Tenders of Shares made pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn at any time until the Expiration Date and, unless Purchaser has accepted the Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer, may also be withdrawn at any time more than 60 days after the commencement of the Offer (i.e., after August 1, 2025).

For a withdrawal to be effective, a written notice of withdrawal must be timely received by the Depositary at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase. Any such notice of withdrawal must specify the name of the person who tendered the Shares to be withdrawn, the number of Shares to be withdrawn and the name of the registered holder of those Shares, if different from that of the person who tendered the Shares. If Share Certificates evidencing Shares to be withdrawn have been delivered or otherwise identified to the Depositary, then, prior to the physical release of those Share Certificates, the serial numbers shown on the Share Certificates must be submitted to the Depositary and, unless those Shares have been tendered by or for the account of an Eligible Institution, the signatures on the notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution. If Shares have been tendered pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer as set forth in Section 3—"Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares," any notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility to be credited with the withdrawn Shares.

------

Any Shares properly withdrawn will thereafter be deemed not to have been validly tendered for purposes of the Offer. However, withdrawn Shares may be re-tendered at any time prior to the Expiration Date by following one of the procedures described in Section 3—"Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares."

All questions as to the form and validity (including time of receipt) of any notice of withdrawal will be determined by Purchaser, in its sole discretion, whose determination will be final and binding upon the tendering party, subject to the rights of holders of Shares to challenge such determination with respect to their Shares in a court of competent jurisdiction and any subsequent judgment of any such court. Purchaser reserves the absolute right to waive any defect or irregularity in the withdrawal of Shares by any particular stockholder, whether or not similar defects or irregularities are waived in the case of other stockholders. None of TransDigm, Purchaser, Servotronics, the Depositary, the Information Agent or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in any notice of withdrawal or incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.

**5. Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences.** 

The following is a general summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Offer and the Merger to stockholders of Servotronics whose Shares are tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offer or whose Shares are converted into the right to receive cash in the Merger. This summary does not purport to address all U.S. federal income tax matters that may be relevant to a particular stockholder, nor is it a complete analysis of all potential U.S. federal income tax consequences. This summary does not address any tax consequences arising under any state, local or foreign tax laws or U.S. federal estate or gift tax laws. This summary is based on current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), existing, proposed and temporary regulations thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. We have neither requested nor obtained a written opinion of counsel or a ruling from the IRS with respect to the tax matters discussed below, and there can be no assurance that the IRS will not take a contrary position regarding the tax consequences of the Offer and the Merger or that any such contrary position would not be sustained by a court.

This summary is limited to stockholders who hold shares as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This summary does not address tax considerations applicable to stockholders that may be subject to special tax rules including, without limitation, the following: (i) persons that are subject to special expatriation rules; (ii) financial institutions; (iii) insurance companies; (iv) brokers, dealers or traders in securities or currencies or notional principal contracts; (v) tax-exempt entities; (vi) persons that hold Shares as part of a "hedging" or "conversion" transaction or as a position in a "straddle" or as part of a "synthetic security" or other integrated transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (vii) stockholders subject to the alternative minimum tax; (viii) regulated investment companies; (ix) real estate investment trusts; (x) persons that own (or are deemed to own) 5% or more of the Shares; (xi) partnerships and other pass-through entities and persons who hold Shares through partnerships or other pass-through entities; (xii) persons that have a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar; (xiii) "controlled foreign corporations"; (xiv) "passive foreign investment companies"; (xv) tax-qualified retirement plans; and (xvi) stockholders that acquired (or will acquire) Shares through exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation.

For purposes of the Offer and the Merger, a "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of Shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (i) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; (ii) a

corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof; (iii) an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or (iv) a trust if (a) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration, and (b) one or more U.S. persons has the authority to control all of the substantial decisions of the trust. For purposes of the Offer and the Merger, a "Non-U.S. Holder" is a beneficial owner of Shares that is not a U.S. Holder or an entity taxable as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

------

If a partnership (or other entity taxable as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds Shares, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. Partners of partnerships holding Shares should consult their tax advisors.

**The descriptions of U.S. federal income tax consequences set forth below are for general information only. All stockholders should consult their own tax advisors as to the particular tax consequences of participating in this Offer and the Merger in light of their particular circumstances, including the application of U.S. federal, state, local or foreign tax laws and possible changes in the laws.** 

*Consequences of the Offer and the Merger to U.S. Holders* 

The exchange of Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer or the Merger will be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, if you hold Shares as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes, you will generally recognize a capital gain or loss on a sale of the Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer or an exchange of Shares for cash pursuant to the Merger, in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of proceeds you receive and your adjusted tax basis in the Shares. Any capital gain or loss recognized will be long-term capital gain or loss if your holding period for the Shares exceeds one year as of the time of payment for your Shares pursuant to the Offer or closing of the Merger, as applicable. Currently, long-term capital gains of non-corporate taxpayers are subject to a maximum U.S. federal income tax rate of 20%. An individual's short-term capital gains are taxed at such individual's marginal federal income tax rate applicable to ordinary income. For both corporate and non-corporate taxpayers, the deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

A 3.8% Medicare tax will be imposed on the "net investment income" earned by U.S. citizens and residents and certain estates and trusts. For this purpose, "net investment income" generally includes any capital gain on the exchange of Shares pursuant to the Offer or the Merger. In the case of an individual, the tax will be imposed on the lesser of (1) the individual's net investment income for the tax year or (2) the individual's modified adjusted gross income for the tax year in excess of certain specified amounts. U.S. holders who are individuals, estates or trusts are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the applicability of this tax to any gain recognized pursuant to the Merger.

*Consequences of the Offer and the Merger to Non-U.S. Holders* 

Payments made to you as a Non-U.S. Holder with respect to the Shares that you exchange in the Offer or the Merger generally will be exempt from U.S. federal income tax, unless: 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• your gain, if any, on Shares is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United
States (and, if an income tax treaty applies, is attributable to your permanent establishment in the United States), and in that event (i) you will be subject to U.S. federal income tax in the same manner as if you were a U.S. Holder (you
should provide an IRS Form W-8ECI instead of a Form W-9); and (ii) if you are a corporation, you may also be subject to branch profits tax on that gain at a
30% rate (or such lower rate as may be specified under an applicable income tax treaty) or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• you are an individual who was present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the
disposition and certain other conditions are met, and in that event you will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified under an applicable income tax treaty) on the gain from the exchange of the
Shares (net of certain losses recognized during that year).

*Information Reporting and Backup Withholding* 

All payments to which you would be entitled pursuant to the Offer or the Merger will be subject to information reporting and backup withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 24%. Backup withholding may be

------

avoided if you (i) are a corporation or an exempt recipient; or (ii) provide a taxpayer identification number ("TIN") and certify that no loss of exemption from backup withholding has occurred. If you are a U.S. Holder, you should complete and sign the Form W-9 that is included with the Letter of Transmittal, to be returned to the Depositary, in order to provide the information and certification necessary to avoid backup withholding, unless an applicable exception exists and is proved in a manner satisfactory to the Depositary. If you are a Non-U.S. Holder, you must generally submit an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable IRS Form W-8) attesting to your exempt foreign status in order to qualify as an exempt recipient. 

If you do not provide a correct TIN, you may be subject to penalties imposed by the IRS. Any amount paid as backup withholding does not constitute an additional tax and will be creditable against your U.S. federal income tax liability, so long as the required information is given to the IRS. If backup withholding results in an overpayment of tax, you may obtain a refund by filing a U.S. federal income tax return. You should consult your own tax advisors as to your qualification for exemption from backup withholding and the procedure for obtaining the exemption.

**Stockholders are urged to obtain a current market quotation for the Shares.** 

**7. Certain Effects of the Offer.** 

**Because the Merger will be governed by Section 251(h) of the DGCL, no stockholder vote will be required to consummate the Merger. Following the consummation of the Offer and subject to the satisfaction of the remaining conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, we and Servotronics will consummate the Merger as soon as practicable pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL. We do not expect there to be a significant period of time between the consummation of the Offer and the consummation of the Merger.** 

------

*Market for the Shares*

If the Offer is successful, there will be no market for the Shares because we expect to complete the Merger as soon as practicable after the Acceptance Time.

*NYSE American Listing*

The Shares are listed on the NYSE American. Immediately following the completion of the Merger, the Shares will no longer meet the requirements for continued listing on the NYSE American because the only stockholder will be Purchaser and we intend to cause the surviving corporation to delist the Shares from the NYSE American.

*Registration Under Exchange Act*

The Shares are currently registered under the Exchange Act. This registration may be terminated upon application by Servotronics to the SEC if the Shares are not listed on a "national securities exchange" and there are fewer than 300 record holders. Termination of registration under the Exchange Act would reduce substantially the information required to be furnished by Servotronics to holders of Shares and to the SEC and would make certain provisions of the Exchange Act, such as the short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16(b), the requirement of furnishing a proxy statement in connection with stockholders' meetings and the related requirement to furnish an annual report to stockholders and the requirements of Exchange Act Rule 13e-3 with respect to "going private" transactions, no longer applicable to the Shares. In addition, "affiliates" of Servotronics and persons holding "restricted securities" of Servotronics may be deprived of the ability to dispose of these securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. 

We intend to seek to terminate registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act as soon after consummation of the Offer as the requirements for termination of registration are met.

*Margin Regulations*

The Shares are currently "margin securities," as that term is defined under the rules of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board"), which has the effect of, among other things, allowing brokers to extend credit on the collateral of those securities. It is possible that following the Offer the Shares would no longer constitute "margin securities" for purposes of the margin regulations of the Federal Reserve Board, in which event the Shares would no longer be usable as collateral for loans made by brokers. In addition, once registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act is terminated, the Shares would no longer constitute "margin securities."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if Purchaser consummates the Offer, it expects to acquire any remaining Shares not purchased in the Offer for the
same cash price in the Merger.

**11. Background of the Offer; Past Contacts or Negotiations with Servotronics.** 

The following background summarizes the key meetings and events involving TransDigm and Servotronics and their respective representatives that led to the signing of the Merger Agreement and the commencement of the Offer. For a review of Servotronics' activities relating to these events, please refer to the Schedule 14D-9.

On March 11, 2025, at the direction of the Servotronics Board, Houlihan Lokey Capital, Inc., financial advisor to Servotronics ("Houlihan"), initiated outreach to representatives of TransDigm regarding a potential opportunity expected to come to market in the near term. A preliminary teleconference between representatives of Houlihan and TransDigm representatives was held on March 12, 2025, during which representatives of Houlihan confidentially identified Servotronics as the target company. Following the call, Houlihan provided a draft confidentiality agreement to TransDigm.

On March 18, 2025, TransDigm entered into the confidentiality agreement with Servotronics, which included a one-year "standstill" provision and provisions prohibiting TransDigm from soliciting Servotronics employees.

On March 24, 2025, at the direction of the Servotronics Board, representatives of Houlihan, sent a Confidential Information Presentation ("CIP") and a letter to representatives of TransDigm to outline the process and timing for submitting a preliminary, non-binding indication of interest based on public information and limited additional information provided by Servotronics. The letter requested submission of indications of interest by April 16, 2025.

On March 26, 2025, representatives of TransDigm sent initial questions and data requests to representatives of Houlihan via email. Houlihan responded on April 4, 2025, providing a data package and Servotronics management projections. Over the next two weeks, Houlihan and TransDigm representatives engaged in multiple email and teleconference exchanges to clarify materials and address additional information requests.

On April 16, 2025, TransDigm submitted a non-binding indication of interest (the "Initial IOI") to Servotronics. The Initial IOI proposed a cash purchase price of $25.00 per share and identified key information requests, including a customary request for site visit and management meeting.

On April 22, 2025, at the direction of the Servotronics Board, representatives of Houlihan informed representatives of TransDigm that, based on the Initial IOI, additional information would be made available to TransDigm to continue the process. Houlihan also offered the requested site visit and meeting with the Servotronics management team.

On April 24, 2025, TransDigm requested further information and notified Houlihan of its intent begin engagement of third-party advisors to assist in evaluating Servotronics.

On May 1, 2025, at the direction of the Servotronics Board, representatives of Houlihan granted representatives of TransDigm access to an initial electronic data room in advance of the management meeting. Over the

------

following week, Houlihan and TransDigm representatives exchanged emails to clarify materials provided ahead of the meeting with Servotronics management, which was scheduled for May 8, 2025.

On May 8, 2025, a management meeting and site visit of Servotronics' Elma, New York manufacturing facility and headquarters was held involving members of the management team of Servotronics and representatives of TransDigm.

On May 9, 2025, representatives of TransDigm informed representatives of Houlihan that TransDigm was committed to executing a definitive agreement as soon as possible. TransDigm representatives also indicated that TransDigm would submit a revised indication of interest with improved terms on May 12, 2025, following due diligence on selected additional requested diligence materials.

Later on May 9, 2025, Servotronics provide representatives of TransDigm and Baker & Hostetler LLP, outside counsel to TransDigm ("BakerHostetler"), with access to an electronic data room containing additional information. Over the next 10 days, representatives of TransDigm, Houlihan, Servotronics, BakerHostetler and Bond, Schoeneck & King, outside counsel to Servotronics ("BSK"), exchanged various emails and teleconferences clarifying and requesting additional information.

On May 12, 2025, TransDigm sent a revised non-binding indication of interest (the "Revised IOI") to Servotronics. The Revised IOI proposed a cash purchase price of $38.50 per share and identified key remaining information requests. It also identified proposed key terms of the definitive agreement, which included customary "no shop" non-solicitation provisions and a termination fee payable by Servotronics to TransDigm in certain circumstances. The Revised IOI also communicated that TransDigm anticipated signing a definitive agreement by May 16, 2025.

On the evening of May 12, 2025, at the direction of the Servotronics Board, representatives of Houlihan sent a draft Merger Agreement to representatives of TransDigm.

On May 13, 2025, a management information teleconference took place involving representatives of Servotronics, TransDigm, Houlihan, BakerHostetler and BSK. Through the rest of this week, additional questions were raised by representatives of TransDigm and its advisors and addressed through teleconferences, email correspondence and data room uploads.

On May 14, 2025, representatives of BakerHostetler sent a revised draft Merger Agreement to representatives of BSK. The revised draft implemented the terms communicated in the Revised IOI. Along with the revised draft Merger Agreement, representatives of BakerHostetler sent a draft Tender and Support Agreement to representatives of BSK.

On May 15, 2025, representatives of BakerHostetler and BSK held a teleconference to discuss the revised draft of the Merger Agreement. Among other topics, they discussed the structure of the transaction (i.e. a two-step tender offer followed by back-end merger as proposed in the initial draft Merger Agreement versus a one-step merger) and the size of the termination fee proposed by TransDigm. They also discussed whether any stockholders other than Servotronics directors and certain executive officers, along with certain stockholders associated with such persons, would be asked to sign the Tender and Support Agreement.

Later, on May 15, 2025, representatives of BSK sent a further revised draft Merger Agreement and draft disclosure schedules to representatives of BakerHostetler. Among other changes, the revised draft Merger Agreement decreased the termination fee payable by Servotronics in certain circumstances for $5.0 million and provided that it would not be payable for 30 days in the event Servotronics terminated the Merger Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal.

On May 16, 2025, representatives of BakerHostetler sent a further revised draft Merger Agreement to representatives of BSK. The revised draft accepted the decreased termination fee of $5.0 million and proposed

------

that 50% would be payable immediately upon termination by Servotronics in the applicable circumstances and the remainder within 30 days. The revised draft also confirmed that the proposed two-step structure of the transaction was acceptable to TransDigm.

From May 16, 2025 through May 18, 2025, representatives of BakerHostetler and BSK exchanged drafts of the Merger Agreement, Tender and Support Agreement and disclosure schedules reflecting minor comments and finalized such documents. Representatives of BakerHostetler also communicated to representatives of BSK that TransDigm would not request that any stockholders beyond Servotronics directors and certain executive officers, and certain stockholders associated with such persons, sign the Tender and Support Agreement. Representatives of TransDigm, Servotronics, Houlihan, BakerHostetler and BSK also exchanged drafts of the joint announcement press release and related disclosure documents.

On the evening of May 18, 2025, TransDigm, Purchaser and Servotronics entered into the Merger Agreement and TransDigm and Purchaser entered into the Tender and Support Agreement with the parties thereto.

On the morning of May 19, 2025, the parties issued a joint press release announcing the Merger Agreement.

On May 24, 2025, at the direction of the Servotronics Board, a representative of Houlihan informed a representative of TransDigm of the receipt by Servotronics of an unsolicited Acquisition Proposal from a third party on the evening of May 23, 2025. Representatives of BSK also notified representatives of BakerHostetler of such Acquisition Proposal and provided a copy thereof. The Acquisition Proposal was a non-binding proposal from Company A to acquire Servotronics for $45.56 per share in cash. A follow-up teleconference among representatives of BakerHostetler and BSK took place on May 25, 2025 in order to discuss the background of the Acquisition Proposal and the process going forward.

From May 25 to May 28, 2025, various discussions took place among representatives of TransDigm, Houlihan, Servotronics, BakerHostetler and BSK regarding Company A's proposal and a revised proposal from TransDigm.

On May 28, 2025, representatives of TransDigm informed representatives of Houlihan of the proposed increase of offer price from $38.50 per share to $47.00 per share and sent a draft Amendment to the Merger Agreement. Representatives of BakerHostetler also sent the draft Amendment to representatives of BSK. In addition to increasing the offer price, the draft Amendment introduced a reverse termination fee of $25.0 million that would be payable by TransDigm to Servotronics if the Merger Agreement was terminated in certain circumstances due to a restraint or prohibition under any competition law that prevented closing from occurring. The draft Amendment also increased the termination fee payable by Servotronics to TransDigm under certain circumstances from $5.0 million to $12.5 million.

Later in the day on May 28, 2025, representatives of BSK communicated to representatives of BakerHostetler the objections of Servotronics with respect to the increased termination fee payable by Servotronics to TransDigm under certain circumstances. Representatives of BakerHostetler thereafter communicated a revised proposal whereby the additional $7.5 million termination fee would not be due unless and until the consummation of a transaction pursuant to a Superior Proposal.

On the evening of May 28, 2025, representatives of BSK communicated to representatives of BakerHostetler that the Servotronics Board had approved the revised proposal, subject to finalization of the Amendment and confirmation that the additional termination fee would not only be delayed, but also be conditioned on, the consummation of a transaction pursuant to a Superior Proposal. Representatives of BakerHostetler thereafter sent a revised draft Amendment to representatives of BSK, which was agreed on, and entered into, by the parties later that night.

On the morning of May 29, 2025, Servotronics issued a press release announcing the Amendment.

On June 2, 2025, Purchaser commenced the Offer.

Each of TransDigm and Servotronics has agreed to use its reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions that are necessary, proper or advisable under the Merger Agreement and applicable law to consummate and make effective the Transactions as promptly as practicable, and to generally cooperate with respect to such matters.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, without TransDigm's approval, such reasonable efforts will not require TransDigm or any of its subsidiaries, or permit Servotronics or any of its subsidiaries, to sell, hold separate, transfer or license or otherwise dispose of any of the respective assets or businesses, to conduct their business in a specified manner, agree to any of the foregoing, or enter into or agree to enter into a voting trust arrangement, proxy arrangement, "hold separate" agreement or arrangement or similar agreement or arrangement with respect to any of their assets, except to the extent such actions involve only assets or business of TransDigm and its subsidiaries (but not of Servotronics and its subsidiaries) that, in the aggregate, generated EBITDA in the trailing twelve months of no more than $3.0 million. For these purposes, "EBITDA" refers to EBITDA as calculated TD Group in a manner consistent with the methodology utilized in its public earnings releases.

*Conduct of the Business of Servotronics Pending the Offer and the Merger* 

The Merger Agreement provides that, from the date of the Merger Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, Servotronics will, subject to certain

------

exceptions, conduct its business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice and use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain and preserve intact its current operations and its material assets and to retain its officers, employees and consultants and preserve the goodwill and current relationships with customers, suppliers and other third parties with whom Servotronics has business relations.

In addition, Servotronics has agreed that during the same time period and subject to certain exceptions, neither it nor any of its subsidiaries will take (or agree to take) certain specified actions without TransDigm's written consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld). These specified actions relate to, among other things, (i) changes in its capitalization, corporate structure and organizational documents, (ii) significant corporate events such as mergers, consolidations, liquidation or dissolution, (iii) dispositions or acquisitions of material assets, (iv) incurring indebtedness and lending, (v) employment plans and arrangements and compensation and severance matters, (vi) changes in accounting methods, (vii) capital expenditures, (viii) taking certain actions with respect to material contracts and insurance policies, and (ix) the settlement of certain litigation. These specified actions are subject to various exceptions, and certain actions may be permitted if they are conducted in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or the dollar amounts involved in the actions fall below thresholds established in the Merger Agreement.

*Financing* 

The Offer is not subject to any financing condition.

We estimate that the total amount of cash required to complete the transactions contemplated by the Offer and the Merger, including payment of any fees, expenses and other related amounts incurred in connection with the Offer and the Merger, will be approximately $132 million. Under the Merger Agreement, TransDigm must provide Purchaser with sufficient funds necessary for Purchaser to consummate the Offer and the Merger. TransDigm, which is a wholly owned direct subsidiary of TD Group and the entity through which TD Group holds all of its operating subsidiaries, intends to provide Purchaser with the necessary funds from cash on hand. As of March 29, 2025, TD Group had $2.4 billion in cash and cash equivalents on a consolidated basis.

*Indemnification and Directors' and Officers' Insurance* 

From and after the Effective Time, TransDigm will cause Servotronics, as the surviving corporation, to fulfill and honor in all respects, for a period of six years, its obligations pursuant to existing indemnification, exculpation and expense advancement agreements with current or past directors and executive officers and pursuant to the indemnification, exculpation and expense advancement provisions of its certificate of incorporation and bylaws in effect as of the date of the Merger Agreement.

From and after the consummation of the Merger, TransDigm also will cause Servotronics, as the surviving corporation, to maintain, for a period of six years, Servotronics' existing directors' and officers' insurance and indemnification policy that provides coverage for the benefit of current or past directors and officers of Servotronics with respect to events occurring prior to the consummation of the Merger that is no less favorable to such directors and officers than the existing policy, or, if substantially equivalent insurance coverage is unavailable, the best available coverage then available. However, TransDigm will not be required to cause Servotronics to pay any annual premium in excess of 250% of the last annual premium paid by Servotronics for that insurance as of the date of the Merger Agreement.

*Acquisition Proposals* 

The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to limited exceptions, Servotronics will, and will direct its representatives to, cease discussions or negotiations with any parties that may be ongoing with respect to an Acquisition Proposal (as defined below) and agrees that it and its representatives will not, directly or indirectly:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) initiate, solicit, facilitate or knowingly encourage any Acquisition Proposal or the making or submission
thereof;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) engage in, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations with a third party regarding
any Acquisition Proposal;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) furnish or provide any nonpublic information in connection with any Acquisition Proposal;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) adopt, approve or recommend, or publicly propose to adopt, approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) withdraw, change, qualify, withhold or modify, or publicly propose to withdraw, change, qualify, withhold or
modify, in a manner adverse to TransDigm or Purchaser, the Servotronics Board Recommendation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) fail to include the Servotronics Board Recommendation in the Schedule 14D-9;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) in the event a tender offer that constitutes an Acquisition Proposal subject to Regulation 14D under the
Exchange Act is commenced, fail to recommend against such Acquisition Proposal in any solicitation or recommendation statement made on Schedule 14D-9 within ten business days of such commencement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) fail to publicly affirm the Servotronics Board Recommendation within ten business days after receipt of a
written request from TransDigm to provide such affirmation following a publicly known Acquisition Proposal;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) approve, authorize or cause or permit Servotronics or any of its subsidiaries to enter into any merger
agreement, acquisition agreement, letter of intent, memorandum of understanding or other similar agreement (other than an acceptable confidentiality agreement) relating to any Acquisition Proposal; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) resolve or agree, or publicly announce an intention, to do any of the foregoing.

Any action set forth in the foregoing clauses (iv) through (x), a "Change of Board Recommendation."

The Merger Agreement provides that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if after the date of the Merger Agreement and prior to the Acceptance Time, Servotronics receives a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal, Servotronics has not breached Section 5.04 of the Merger Agreement, and the Servotronics Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, based on information then available, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes (or would reasonably be expected to lead to) a Superior Proposal (as defined below), and (ii) the Servotronics Board determines (after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel that the failure to take the action would be inconsistent with the Servotronics Board's fiduciary duties under applicable law, Servotronics may:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) furnish information with respect to Servotronics and its subsidiaries to the person making such Acquisition
Proposal (provided that any such person has executed an acceptable confidentiality agreement and any material non-public information not previously provided to TransDigm will only be provided to such person
under certain circumstances, in which case such information will also be provided simultaneously to TransDigm); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) participate in discussions or negotiations with that person regarding such Acquisition Proposal.

Prior to the Acceptance Time, in response to the receipt of a Superior Proposal that has not resulted from a material breach of Servotronics' non-solicitation obligations under the Merger Agreement or if an Intervening Event (as defined below) occurs, the Servotronics Board may make a Change of Board Recommendation if it determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law. However, before taking the foregoing action, Servotronics must provide TransDigm with at least four business days advance notice and negotiate with TransDigm in good faith regarding any amendments or modifications to the Merger Agreement intended to cause the relevant Acquisition Proposal or Intervening Event to no longer warrant a Change of Board Recommendation. At the end of such notice period, the Servotronics Board must consider in good faith any such

------

proposed amendments or modifications and must have determined, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that, with respect to a Superior Proposal, it continues to constitute a Superior Proposal and, with respect to either a Superior Proposal or Intervening Event, the failure to make a Change of Board Recommendation would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law. In the case of any material amendment to a Superior Proposal or change in the circumstances of the Intervening Event, Servotronics must provide TransDigm the same advance notice and opportunity to negotiate, except that the notice period will be reduced to three business days.

Except as described above, the Servotronics Board is prohibited from making a Change of Board Recommendation.

The Merger Agreement defines the term "Acquisition Proposal" as means any inquiry, offer or proposal from a Third Party (as defined in the Merger Agreement) concerning (A) a merger, consolidation, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, business combination transaction or similar transaction involving Servotronics, as a result of which the owners of the Equity Interests (as defined in the Merger Agreement) of Servotronics immediately prior to such event do not own 85% or more of the Equity Interests and voting power of Servotronics immediately following such event in substantially similar proportions as owned as of the date of the Merger Agreement, (B) a sale, lease or other disposition by merger, consolidation, business combination, share exchange, joint venture or otherwise, of assets of Servotronics (including Equity Interests of any subsidiary of Servotronics) or its subsidiaries representing 15% or more of the consolidated revenues, net income or assets of Servotronics and its subsidiaries, with respect to assets, based on their fair market value as determined in good faith by Servotronics Board (or any duly authorized committee thereof), (C) an issuance or acquisition (including by way of merger, consolidation, business combination, share exchange or otherwise) of Equity Interests representing 15% or more of the voting power of Servotronics, or (D) any combination of the foregoing (in each case, other than the Offer and the Merger).

The Merger Agreement defines the term "Intervening Event" as a material event, fact, development, circumstance or occurrence occurring or arising after the date hereof that does not result from a breach of the Merger Agreement and that affects or would be reasonably likely to affect the business, assets or operations of Servotronics or any subsidiary that was not known to or reasonably foreseeable by the Servotronics Board as of the date of the Merger Agreement and that becomes known by the Servotronics Board after the date of the Merger Agreement and prior to the Acceptance Time; provided that (w) any event, fact, development, circumstance or occurrence that involves or relates to an Acquisition Proposal or a Superior Proposal or any inquiry or communications or matters related thereto, (x) any event, fact, development, circumstance or occurrence that results from the announcement, pendency or consummation of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or actions required to be taken or refrained from being taken pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (y) the fact that Servotronics meets or exceeds an internal or analyst expectations or projections, or (z) any changes or lack thereof in the market or trading volume of the Shares will not be deemed, individually or in the aggregate, to constitute an Intervening Event. In addition, any change in the composition of the Servotronics Board will not constitute an Intervening Event (and, for the avoidance of doubt, will not be deemed to have any impact whatsoever on what was known or reasonably foreseeable by the Servotronics Board as of the date of the Merger Agreement).

The Merger Agreement defines the term "Superior Proposal" as a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal (except the references to "15%" and "85%" in the definition thereof shall be replaced by "50%" for purposes of this definition) that is received after the date of the Merger Agreement and is not solicited or received in violation, or resulting from any breach, of Section 5.04 Merger Agreement and that the Servotronics Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, taking into account such factors as the Servotronics Board (or any duly authorized committee thereof) considers in good faith to be appropriate (including the conditionality, timing and likelihood of consummation of such proposals), is reasonably likely to be consummated in accordance with its terms and, if consummated, would be more favorable from a financial point of view to Servotronics' stockholders than the Offer and the Merger (taking in account any proposed changed terms).

------

*Conditions of the Merger* 

The respective obligations of each of TransDigm, Purchaser and Servotronics to effect the Merger are subject to the prior satisfaction or waiver by that party at or prior to the consummation of the Merger of the following conditions:

(i) Purchaser has irrevocably accepted for purchase all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer.

(ii) The consummation of the Merger shall not then be restrained, enjoined or prohibited by any order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) of any governmental entity and there shall not be in effect any law enacted or promulgated by any governmental entity that prevents or makes illegal the consummation of the Merger (a "Restraint").

*Termination* 

The Merger Agreement provides that it may be terminated under the following circumstances:

(i) by mutual written consent of TransDigm and Servotronics;

(ii) by either TransDigm or Servotronics, if the Offer expires and is not consummated as a result of the non-satisfaction of any of the Offer Conditions in a circumstance where Purchaser has no further obligation to extend the Offer and has not otherwise extended the Offer; except that the right to terminate the Merger Agreement is not be available to any party whose breach of the Agreement has been the primary cause of or primarily resulted in the non-satisfaction of any Offer Condition;

(iii) by either TransDigm or Servotronics, if any final and non-appealable Restraint prohibits, or makes illegal, prior to the Acceptance Time, consummation of the Offer or, prior to the Effective Time, the Merger, but this right to terminate the Merger Agreement is not available to any party if the issuance of, or failure to resolve or have vacated or lifted, such Restraint or the enactment or promulgation of such law was primarily due to a breach by such party of any of its covenants or agreements under the Merger Agreement (a "Restraint Termination");

(iv) by either TransDigm or Servotronics, if the Acceptance Time has not occurred by the Outside Date, but this right to terminate the Merger Agreement is not available to any party whose breach of the Merger Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Acceptance Time to so occur (an "Outside Date Termination"); or

(v) by either TransDigm or Servotronics, prior to the Acceptance Time, if the terminating party is not in material breach of the Merger Agreement and there has been a breach by the other party that, in the event of a breach by Servotronics, would result in the Offer Conditions not being satisfied or, the event of a breach by TransDigm and Purchaser, would result in a Parent Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) that is capable of cure or is not cured within 30 days after notice thereof (but no later than the Outside Date).

(vi) by TransDigm if the Servotronics Board makes a Change of Board Recommendation or has breached Section 5.04 of the Merger Agreement in any material respect; or

(vii) by Servotronics in order to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal in compliance with Section 5.04 of the Merger Agreement, provided that Servotronics pays the Company Termination Fee (as defined below).

*Termination Fee* 

If the Merger Agreement is validly terminated (a) by TransDigm as a result of the Servotronics Board effecting a Change of Board Recommendation or if Servotronics has breached Section 5.04 of the Merger Agreement or (b) by

------

Servotronics in order to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal in compliance with Section 5.04 of the Merger Agreement, then, in the case of a termination by Servotronics, Servotronics will pay 20% of the Company Termination Fee (as defined below) to TransDigm simultaneously with such termination, and an additional 20% of the Company Termination Fee within 30 days after such termination, or, in the case of a termination by TransDigm, Servotronics will pay 40% of the Company Termination Fee to TransDigm within two (2) business days thereafter. Servotronics will only pay the remainder of the Company Termination Fee upon consummation of a sale of Servotronics pursuant to a Superior Proposal, in which case, Servotronics will pay the remainder of the Company Termination Fee simultaneously with the close of the sale of Servotronics pursuant to a Superior Proposal. The "Company Termination Fee" means $12,500,000.

In addition, if (a) the Merger Agreement is validly terminated by Servotronics or TransDigm pursuant to Section 7.01(b) (with respect to failure to satisfy Offer Conditions), Section 7.01(d) (with respect to the Outside Date) or pursuant to Section 7.01(g) (with respect to a willful breach by Servotronics) of the Merger Agreement, (b) an Acquisition Proposal has been announced publicly or made to Servotronics after the date of the Merger Agreement and not publicly withdrawn prior to such termination, and (c) Servotronics enters into a definitive agreement for an Acquisition Proposal (that is later consummated) or otherwise consummates an Acquisition Proposal within 12 months after such termination, then Servotronics shall pay the Company Termination Fee, to TransDigm simultaneously with the consummation of such Acquisition Proposal. As used in the foregoing sentence, the term "Acquisition Proposal" has the meaning assigned to such term as defined above, except that the references to "15%" therein are deemed to be references to "50.1%."

*Reverse Termination Fee* 

If the Merger Agreement is validly terminated by either Servotronics or TransDigm in the case of either a Restraint Termination or an Outside Date Termination, provided that all conditions to the Offer then capable of being satisfied or waived, other than the conditions relating to a Restraint solely to the extent it arises under Competition Laws (as defined in the Merger Agreement), have been satisfied or waived, then TransDigm will promptly, but in no event later than ten business days following such termination, pay a fee to Servotronics of $25,000,000 (the "TransDigm Termination Fee").

*Governing Law* 

The Merger Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.

*Amendments to the Merger Agreement* 

The Merger Agreement may be amended by the parties prior to or after the closing of the Offer, except that no amendment may be made that decreases the Merger Consideration.

*Third Party Beneficiaries* 

The Merger Agreement is not intended to confer upon any person other than TransDigm, Purchaser and Servotronics benefits or remedies, other than the rights of certain Servotronics directors and executive officers to indemnification and insurance as described above.

*Enforcement* 

TransDigm, Purchaser and Servotronics have agreed that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of the Merger Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the parties are entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the Merger Agreement and to enforce specifically its terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company Termination Fee is paid by Servotronics to TransDigm or the TransDigm Termination Fee is paid by TransDigm to Servotronics, in each case as described above, receipt of that fee will be the exclusive remedy available to the party receiving such fee.

------

***Tender and Support Agreements***

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Supporting Stockholders entered into the Tender and Support Agreement. As of May 30, 2025, the Supporting Stockholders beneficially owned, in the aggregate, 517,644 Shares (or approximately 20.25% of all outstanding Shares as of such date). TD Group, TransDigm and Purchaser expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of all Shares covered by the Tender and Support Agreement.

Pursuant to the Tender and Support Agreement, the Supporting Stockholders have agreed (solely in their capacity as stockholders of Servotronics) among other things, to tender, or cause to be tendered, pursuant to the Offer, all Shares beneficially owned by such Supporting Stockholder and any additional Shares with respect to which such Supporting Stockholder becomes the beneficial owner after the date of the Tender and Support Agreement, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer no later than ten business days after the receipt by such Supporting Stockholder of this Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal.

Each Supporting Stockholder has also agreed to vote, or execute consents with respect to, all of the Supporting Stockholder's Shares, among other things, (i) in favor of any proposal necessary or desirable to approve and adopt the Merger and the Merger Agreement and each of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (although no such proposals are contemplated and the Merger is expected to be completed pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL without a vote of Servotronics' stockholders); and (ii) against certain other proposals, actions or agreements, including (A) any Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement and further discussed below) and (B) any other action, agreement or proposal which would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the Offer, the Merger or any of the other Transactions.

The Tender and Support Agreement also limits the ability of the Supporting Stockholders to sell or otherwise transfer, encumber, grant proxies or enter into certain arrangements in respect of the Shares.

The Tender and Support Agreement will terminate upon certain events, including any termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms. In such case, any Shares tendered by the Supporting Stockholders would be returned to the Supporting Stockholders. See the "Introduction" to this Offer to Purchase and Section 12—"The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements."

The foregoing summary of the material terms of the Tender and Support Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Tender and Support Agreement, which has been included as Exhibit (d)(3) to the Schedule TO and is incorporated herein by reference.

***Confidentiality Agreement***

Servotronics and TransDigm entered into a confidentiality agreement, dated March 18, 2025, restricting TransDigm's use and disclosure of confidential information it obtained in connection with its evaluation of a potential transaction with Servotronics. This confidentiality agreement also included a 12-month "standstill" provision (that automatically ceased to be in effect once the Merger Agreement was announced) and provisions that restrict TransDigm's ability to hire or solicit for hire Servotronics employees.

The foregoing summary of the material terms of the non-disclosure agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the non-disclosure agreement, which has been included as Exhibit (d)(4) to the Schedule TO and is incorporated herein by reference.

**13. Purpose of the Offer and Plans for Servotronics; No Stockholder Approval; Appraisal Rights.** 

*Purpose of the Offer and Plans for Servotronics*. The purpose of the Offer is for TransDigm to acquire control of Servotronics and ultimately all of the outstanding Shares. The Offer, as the first step in the acquisition of

------

Servotronics, is intended to facilitate the acquisition of Servotronics as promptly as practicable. TransDigm expects to complete the Merger as soon as practicable after completion of the Offer pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL without a vote of Servotronics' stockholders. The purpose of the Merger is to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Shares not tendered pursuant to the Offer. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each remaining issued and outstanding Share (other than Shares irrevocably accepted as payment in the Offer, treasury stock of Servotronics to be cancelled or held by Servotronics stockholders properly exercising their appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL) will be converted into the right to receive an amount equal to the Offer Price, payable in cash, without interest and less any required withholding taxes. The Shares acquired in the Offer will be cancelled in the Merger and the capital stock of Purchaser will be the capital stock of the surviving corporation. The directors and officers of Purchaser immediately prior to the Effective Time will be the directors and officers of Servotronics as the surviving corporation immediately following the Effective Time, until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the charter and bylaws of the surviving corporation.

We intend to cause the delisting of the Shares by the NYSE American promptly following consummation of the Merger. We intend to seek to cause Servotronics to terminate registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act as soon after the consummation of the Offer as the requirements for deregistration are met. See Section 7—"Certain Effects of the Offer."

If you sell your Shares in the Offer, you will cease to have any equity interest in Servotronics or any right to participate in its earnings and future growth. If you do not tender your Shares, but the Merger is consummated, you also will no longer have an equity interest in Servotronics. Similarly, after the consummation of the Offer or the subsequent Merger, you will not bear the risk of any decrease in the value of Servotronics.

Except as described above or elsewhere in this Offer to Purchase, including as contemplated in this Section 13—"Purpose of the Offer and Plans for Servotronics; No Stockholder Approval; Appraisal Rights" and Section 7—"Certain Effects of the Offer," TD Group, TransDigm and Purchaser have no present plans or proposals that would relate to or would result in: (i) any extraordinary transaction (such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation) involving Servotronics or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) any purchase, sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of Servotronics or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) any material change in the present dividend rate or policy, or indebtedness or capitalization of Servotronics, (iv) any change in the present Servotronics Board or management, or (v) any other material change in Servotronics' corporate structure or business,.

*No Stockholder Approval* 

If the Offer is consummated, we will not seek the approval of Servotronics' remaining public stockholders before effecting the Merger. Section 251(h) of the DGCL provides that, subject to certain statutory requirements, if following consummation of a successful tender offer for a public corporation, the acquirer holds at least the amount of shares of each class of stock of the target corporation that would otherwise be required to approve a merger involving the target corporation, and the other stockholders receive the same consideration for their stock in the merger as was payable in the tender offer, the acquirer can effect a merger without any action by the other stockholders of the target corporation. Therefore, the parties have agreed that, subject to the conditions specified in the Merger Agreement, the Merger will become effective as soon as practicable after consummation of the Offer, without a stockholder vote or any other action by the stockholders of Servotronics, in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL.

*Appraisal Rights* 

No appraisal rights are available in connection with the Offer. However, pursuant to the DGCL, if the Offer is successful and the Merger is consummated, stockholders of Servotronics who continuously held Shares from the date of the demand for appraisal through the Effective Time who (i) did not tender their Shares in the Offer; (ii) follow the procedures set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL; and (iii) do not thereafter withdraw their demand for appraisal of such Shares or otherwise lose their appraisal rights, in each case in accordance with Section 262 of

------

the DGCL, will be entitled to receive appraisal rights for the "fair value" of their Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL. The "fair value" of such Shares as of the Effective Time could be more than, the same as or less than the consideration to be received pursuant to the Merger.

Under Section 262 of the DGCL, where a merger is approved under Section 251(h), either a constituent corporation before the effective date of the merger, or the surviving corporation within ten days thereafter, will notify each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation who are entitled to seek appraisal of the approval of the merger or consolidation and that appraisal rights are available for any or all shares of such class or series of stock of such constituent corporation, and will include in such notice a copy of Section 262 of the DGCL or information directing the stockholders to a publicly available electronic resource at which Section 262 of the DGCL may be accessed without subscription or cost. **The Schedule 14D-9 will constitute the formal notice of appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL.**

As described more fully in the Schedule 14D-9, in order to exercise appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL in connection with the Merger, a stockholder must do all of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• within the later of the consummation of the Offer and 20 days after the mailing of the Schedule 14D-9, deliver to Servotronics a written demand for appraisal of Shares held, which demand must reasonably inform Servotronics of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder is demanding appraisal;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• not tender their Shares in the Offer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• continuously hold or beneficially own the Shares from the date on which the written demand for appraisal is made
through the Effective Time (and in the case of Shares beneficially owned, such beneficial owner must reasonably identify the record holder of such Shares by documentary evidence of such beneficial ownership and a statement that such documentary
evidence is a true and correct copy of what it purports to be, and provide an address at which such beneficial owner consents to receive notices); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• strictly follow the statutory procedures for perfecting appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL.

Any holder of Shares who wishes to exercise such appraisal rights or who wishes to preserve his, her or its right to do so in connection with the Merger, should carefully review each of the Schedule 14D-9 and Section 262 of the DGCL because failure to timely and properly comply with the procedures specified will result in the loss of appraisal rights under the DGCL.

**The foregoing summary of the appraisal rights of stockholders under the DGCL does not purport to be a complete statement of the procedures to be followed by stockholders desiring to exercise any appraisal rights available thereunder and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Section 262 of the DGCL. The proper exercise of appraisal rights requires strict and timely adherence to the applicable provisions of Delaware law. A copy of Section 262 of the DGCL will be included as Annex B to the Schedule 14D-9.** 

**The information provided above is for informational purposes only with respect to your alternatives if the Merger is consummated. If you tender your Shares into the Offer, you will not be entitled to exercise appraisal rights with respect to your Shares but, instead, subject to the conditions to the Offer, you will receive the Offer Price for your Shares.** 

**14. Dividends and Distributions.** 

The Merger Agreement provides that from the date of the Merger Agreement to the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which the Merger Agreement is terminated, except with the prior written consent of TransDigm or as specifically contemplated or permitted by the Merger Agreement, Servotronics will not reclassify, combine, split, subdivide or amend its capital stock, will not declare, set aside, make or pay any dividend, and will not make any other distribution on, or directly or indirectly redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of its capital stock or any equity interests.

------

If, on or after the date of this Offer to Purchase, the outstanding Shares are changed into a different number of Shares by reason of any stock split, division, subdivision, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation, reclassification, recapitalization or similar transaction, the Offer Price will be adjusted to the extent appropriate.

**15. Certain Conditions of the Offer.** 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Offer to Purchase or the Merger Agreement, Purchaser will not be required to accept for purchase any Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer if the following conditions have not been satisfied:

(i) Servotronics' stockholders must validly tender and not properly withdraw prior to the expiration of the
Offer that number of Shares that, together with the Shares then owned by TransDigm and its subsidiaries (including Purchaser) (if any), represents at least a majority of the sum of the number of then outstanding Shares and the number of Shares then
reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding Servotronics performance share units (the "Minimum Condition").

(ii) The Merger Agreement shall not have been validly terminated in accordance with its terms (the "Termination
Condition").

(ii) Other Conditions. None of the following events, conditions, state of facts or developments exists at the Expiration Date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The consummation of the Offer or the Merger is then restrained, enjoined or prohibited by any order (whether
temporary, preliminary or permanent) of any governmental entity or there shall be in effect any law enacted or promulgated by any governmental entity that prevents or makes illegal the consummation of the Offer or the Merger.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Any representation and warranty of Servotronics (A) contained in Section 3.02(a) and (b)
(Capitalization) of the Merger Agreement shall fail to be true and correct in all respects (other than exceptions that are, individually or in the aggregate, de minimis) at and as of the Expiration Date as though made at and as of the Expiration
Date, except for representations and warranties that relate to a specific date or time (which need only be so true and correct in all respects (other than exceptions that are, individually or in the aggregate, de minimis) as of such date or time);
(B) contained in Section 3.01 (Corporate Organization), Section 3.03 (Authority; Execution and Delivery; Enforceability), Section 3.04(a)(i) (No Conflicts), the first sentence of Section 3.14(c) (Material Contracts) and
Section 3.17 (Broker's Fees) of the Merger Agreement shall fail to be true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Expiration Date as though made at and as of the Expiration Date, except for representations and warranties
that relate to a specific date or time (which need only be so true and correct in all material respects as of such date or time); or (C) set forth in Article III (other than the representations and warranties referenced in the immediately
foregoing clauses (A) and (B)) of the Merger Agreement, without giving effect to any qualifications as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect (as defined below) contained therein, shall fail to be true and correct at and as of the Expiration
Date as though made at and as of the Expiration Date, except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specific date or time (which need only be so true and correct as of such date or time), except as has not had and would not

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) TransDigm has not have received a certificate, dated as of the Expiration Date and signed by an executive
officer of Servotronics, certifying to the effect that the conditions set forth in paragraphs (ii) and (iii) of paragraph (c) of Annex I of the Merger Agreement have been satisfied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) TransDigm has not received a statement from Servotronics satisfying the requirements of Treasury Regulations
Sections 1.897-2(h) and 1.1445-2(c)(3) certifying that interests in the Company are not "United States real property interests" within the meaning of
Section 897(c) of the Code.

The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of Purchaser and TransDigm and, subject to the Merger Agreement and rules and regulations of the SEC, may be asserted by Purchaser or TransDigm regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such condition or may be waived by Purchaser or TransDigm in whole or in part at any time and from time to time in their sole discretion, but nothing in the Merger Agreement will relieve any party from any obligation or liability that party has under the Merger Agreement and the Minimum Condition and Termination Condition may not be waived.

As used in the Merger Agreement, a "Material Adverse Effect" means any change, event, condition, occurrence, state of facts, development or effect (an "Effect") that, individually or in the aggregate, (i) has, or would be reasonably expected to have, a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, condition or results of operations of Servotronics and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; provided, however, that adverse Effects arising out of, resulting from or attributable to the following shall not constitute or be deemed to contribute to a Material Adverse Effect, and shall not otherwise be taken into account in determining whether a Material Adverse Effect has occurred or would reasonably be expected to occur, except that Effects with respect to clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the below shall be so considered solely to the extent such Effect disproportionately impacts Servotronics and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, relative to other companies operating in the same industries (and, in the case of clause (c), the same geography in which the Effect occurs): (a) changes or proposed changes in applicable laws, GAAP or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, (b) changes in general economic, business, labor or regulatory conditions, or changes in securities, credit or other financial markets, including interest rates or exchange rates, in the United States or globally, or changes generally affecting the industries (including seasonal fluctuations) in which Servotronics or its subsidiaries operate in the United States or globally, (c) changes in global or national political conditions (including the outbreak or escalation of war (whether or not declared), military action, sabotage or acts of terrorism), changes due to natural disasters or changes in the weather or changes due to the outbreak or worsening of an epidemic, pandemic or other disease or health crisis, (d) the public announcement or pendency of Merger Agreement and the Transactions (provided, that the exception in this clause (d) shall not apply in the context of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.04 of the Merger Agreement), (e) any Transaction litigation or any demand, action, claim or proceeding for appraisal of any Shares pursuant to the DGCL in connection with the Merger Agreement and the Transactions, (f) changes in the trading price or trading volume of Shares or any suspension of trading, provided that the underlying facts or circumstances giving rise or contributing to such changes may be taken into account in determining whether a Material Adverse Effect has occurred, (g) any failure by Servotronics or any of its subsidiaries to meet any revenue, earnings or other financial projections or forecasts, provided that the underlying facts or circumstances giving rise or contributing to such changes may be taken into account in determining whether a Material Adverse Effect has occurred, or (h) any actions taken, or failure to take any action, in each case, to which TransDigm or Purchaser has approved, consented or requested in writing or that is required or prohibited by the Merger Agreement, solely to the extent the consequences of such an approval or consent made by Servotronics are known to or reasonably foreseeable by TransDigm or Purchaser, as applicable, or (ii) would, or would be reasonably expected to, prevent or materially impair or materially delay the consummation by Servotronics of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; provided, however, that any Effects arising out of, resulting from or attributable to any investigation of the Transactions pursuant to applicable competition laws shall not constitute or be deemed to contribute to a Material Adverse Effect, and shall not otherwise be taken into account in determining whether a Material Adverse Effect has occurred or would reasonably be expected to occur.

------

**16. Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals.** 

*General*

Based on its examination of publicly available information filed by Servotronics with the SEC and other available information concerning Servotronics, Purchaser is not aware of any governmental license or regulatory permit that appears to be material to Servotronics' business that might be adversely affected by Purchaser's acquisition of Shares as contemplated herein or of any approval or other action by any government or governmental, administrative or regulatory authority or agency, domestic or foreign, that would be required for the acquisition or ownership of Shares by Purchaser as contemplated herein. Should any such approval or other action be required or desirable, Purchaser currently contemplates that, except as described below under "State Takeover Statutes," that approval or other action will be sought. There is no current intent to delay the purchase of Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer pending the outcome of any such matter. We are unable to predict whether we will determine that we are required to delay the acceptance for payment of or payment for Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer pending the outcome of any approval or other action not described below. There can be no assurance that any such approval or other action, if needed, would be obtained (with or without substantial conditions) or that if necessary approvals were not obtained or those other actions were not taken, adverse consequences might not result to Servotronics' business, any of which under certain conditions specified in the Merger Agreement could cause Purchaser to elect to terminate the Offer without the purchase of Shares thereunder. See Section 15—"Certain Conditions of the Offer." 

*Section 203 of the DGCL*

Section 203 of the DGCL prevents certain "business combinations" with an "interested stockholder" (generally, any person who owns or has the right to acquire 15% or more of a corporation's outstanding voting stock) for a period of three years following the time that person became an interested stockholder, unless, among other things, prior to the time the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction in which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder. 

Servotronics has represented to TransDigm and Purchaser that the action of the Servotronics Board in approving the Offer, the Merger and the Transactions is sufficient to render inapplicable to the Merger Agreement and the Transactions the restrictions on "business combinations" (as defined by Section 203 of the DGCL). Therefore, the restrictions of Section 203 are inapplicable to the Merger and the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement.

*State Takeover Statutes*

A number of states have adopted laws that purport, to varying degrees, to apply to attempts to acquire corporations that are incorporated in, or that have substantial assets, stockholders, principal executive offices or principal places of business or whose business operations otherwise have substantial economic effects in, those states. Except as described herein, Purchaser and TransDigm are not aware of any of these laws that will, by their terms, apply to the Offer or the Merger, and Purchaser and TransDigm have not attempted to comply with any such laws. To the extent that certain provisions of these laws purport to apply to the Offer or the Merger, Purchaser and TransDigm believe that there are reasonable bases for contesting such laws. In 1982, in *Edgar v. MITE Corp.*, the Supreme Court of the United States invalidated on constitutional grounds the Illinois Business Takeover Statute which, as a matter of state securities law, made takeovers of corporations meeting certain requirements more difficult. However, in 1987, in *CTS Corp. v. Dynamics Corp. of America*, the Supreme Court held that the State of Indiana could, as a matter of corporate law, constitutionally disqualify a potential acquirer from voting shares of a target corporation without the prior approval of the remaining stockholders where, among other things, the corporation is incorporated in, and has a substantial number of stockholders in, the state. Subsequently, in *TLX Acquisition Corp. v. Telex Corp.*, a U.S. Federal district court in Oklahoma ruled that the Oklahoma statutes were unconstitutional as applied to corporations incorporated outside Oklahoma in that they would subject such corporations to inconsistent regulations. Similarly, in *Tyson Foods, Inc. v. McReynolds*, a

------

U.S. Federal district court in Tennessee ruled that four Tennessee takeover statutes were unconstitutional as applied to corporations incorporated outside Tennessee. This decision was affirmed by the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. In 1988, a U.S. Federal district court in Florida held, in *Grand Metropolitan PLC v. Butterworth*, that the provisions of the Florida Affiliated Transactions Act and the Florida Control Share Acquisition Act were unconstitutional as applied to corporations incorporated outside of Florida. 

If any government official or third party seeks to apply any state takeover law to the Offer or the Merger or other business combination between Purchaser or any of its affiliates and Servotronics, Purchaser will take such action as then appears desirable, which action may include challenging the applicability or validity of the applicable statute in appropriate court proceedings. If it is asserted that one or more state takeover statutes is applicable to the Offer or the Merger and an appropriate court does not determine that it is inapplicable or invalid as applied to the Offer or the Merger, Purchaser might be required to file certain information with, or to receive approvals from, the relevant state authorities or holders of Shares, and Purchaser might be unable to accept for purchase or pay for Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer, or be delayed in continuing or consummating the Offer or the Merger. In that case, Purchaser may not be obligated to accept for purchase, or pay for, any Shares tendered. See Section 15—"Certain Conditions of the Offer."

*Competition Laws* 

TransDigm and Purchaser are not subject to a waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"), or required to file a notification and report form thereunder with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC") and the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (the "DOJ"), in connection with the Offer or the Merger. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the DOJ and FTC assess the legality under the antitrust laws of transactions such as the acquisition of Shares by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer. At any time before or after the consummation of any such transactions, the DOJ or the FTC could take such action under the antitrust laws of the United States as it deems necessary or desirable in the public interest, including seeking to enjoin the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer or seeking divestiture of the Shares so acquired. Private parties and individual States of the United States may also bring legal actions under the antitrust laws of the United States. TransDigm and Purchaser do not believe that the consummation of the Offer will result in a violation of any applicable antitrust laws. However, there can be no assurance that a challenge to the Offer on antitrust grounds will not be made, or if such a challenge is made, what the result would be.

See Section 12—"Merger Agreement; Other Agreements—The Merger Agreement—Consents and Approvals" for a description of the actions the parties have agreed to take, and the limitations on those actions, with respect to regulatory matters.

*Going Private Transactions*

The SEC has adopted Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act, which is applicable to certain "going private" transactions, and which may under certain circumstances be applicable to the Merger or another business combination following the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer. TransDigm and Purchaser believe that Rule 13e-3 will not be applicable to the Merger because (i) Purchaser was not, at the time the Merger Agreement was executed, and is not, an affiliate of Servotronics for purposes of the Exchange Act; (ii) the Merger will be effected as soon as practicable following consummation of the Offer (and in any event within one year); and (iii) in the Merger, stockholders will receive the same price per Share as that paid in the Offer. 

*Litigation*

TransDigm and Purchaser are not aware of any pending legal proceeding relating to the Offer.

**The foregoing discussion of certain provisions of the DGCL and the Exchange Act is not a complete description of the DGCL or the Exchange Act or of those provisions thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the DGCL and the Exchange Act.** 

------

**17. Fees and Expenses.** 

TransDigm has retained Okapi Partners LLC as Information Agent in connection with the Offer, for which services Okapi Partners LLC will receive customary compensation. The Information Agent may contact holders of Servotronics common stock by mail, telephone, telex, telegraph and personal interview and may request brokers, dealers, commercial banks, trust companies and other nominees to forward material relating to the Offer to beneficial owners of Shares. TransDigm will pay the Information Agent reasonable and customary compensation for these services in addition to reimbursing the Information Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. TransDigm has agreed to indemnify the Information Agent against certain liabilities and expenses in connection with the Offer.

In addition, TransDigm has retained Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as the Depositary in connection with the Offer. TransDigm will pay the Depositary reasonable and customary compensation for its services in connection with the Offer, will reimburse the Depositary for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and will indemnify the Depositary against certain liabilities and expenses, including certain liabilities under the U.S. federal securities laws.

Except as set forth above, neither TransDigm nor Purchaser will pay any commissions or fees to any broker, dealer or other person for soliciting tenders of Shares pursuant to the Offer. TransDigm or Purchaser will reimburse brokers, dealers, commercial banks and trust companies and other nominees, upon request, for customary clerical and mailing expenses incurred by them in forwarding offering materials to their customers.

**18. Miscellaneous.** 

The Offer is being made solely by this Offer to Purchase and the accompanying Letter of Transmittal, and any amendments or supplements thereto, and is being made to all holders of Shares, except that the making of the Offer in jurisdictions other than the U.S. may be restricted or prohibited by law. We are not currently aware of any jurisdiction where the making of the Offer is restricted or prohibited by law. If we become aware of any such restriction or prohibition on the making of the Offer or the acceptance of the Shares, we will make a good faith effort to comply or seek to have such prohibition or restriction declared inapplicable to the Offer. If, after a good faith effort, we cannot comply, we will not make the Offer to, nor will we accept tenders from or on behalf of, the holders of Shares in that jurisdiction. In those jurisdictions where applicable laws require the Offer to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, the Offer will be deemed to be made on behalf of Purchaser by one or more registered brokers or dealers licensed under the laws of that jurisdiction to be designated by Purchaser.

**No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representation on behalf of TransDigm or Purchaser not contained herein or in the Letter of Transmittal, and, if given or made, that information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorized. No broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee will be deemed to be the agent of TransDigm, Purchaser, the Depositary or the Information Agent for purposes of the Offer.** 

TD Group, TransDigm and Purchaser have filed with the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO pursuant to Rule 14d-3 of the Exchange Act, together with exhibits furnishing certain additional information with respect to the Offer, and may file amendments thereto. In addition, Servotronics has filed with the SEC a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9, together with exhibits, pursuant to Rule 14d-9 under the Exchange Act, setting forth the recommendation of the Servotronics Board with respect to the Offer and the reasons for that recommendation and furnishing certain additional related information. A copy of those documents, and any amendments thereto, may be examined at, and copies may be obtained from, the SEC in the manner set forth under Section 8—"Certain Information Concerning Servotronics" above.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned hereby tenders to TDG Rise Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Purchaser") and a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Inc., a Delaware corporation ("TransDigm") and wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated, the above-described shares of common stock, par value $0.20 per share (collectively, the "Shares"), of Servotronics, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Servotronics"), at a price of $47.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated June 2, 2025 (the "Offer to Purchase"), receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, and this Letter of Transmittal (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, this "Letter of Transmittal" and, together with the Offer to Purchase, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the "Offer"). The undersigned understands that Purchaser reserves the right to transfer or assign, from time to time, in whole or in part, to one or more of its affiliates, the right to purchase the Shares tendered herewith.

On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of such extension or amendment), subject to, and effective upon, acceptance for purchase and payment for the Shares validly tendered herewith, and not properly withdrawn, prior to the Expiration Date in accordance with the terms of the Offer, the undersigned hereby sells, assigns and transfers to, or upon the order of, Purchaser, all right, title and interest in and to all of the Shares being tendered hereby and any and all other Shares or other securities or rights issued or issuable in respect of such Shares on or after the date of the Offer to Purchaser (collectively, "Distributions"). In addition, the undersigned hereby irrevocably appoints Purchaser the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact and proxy of the undersigned with respect to such Shares and any Distributions with full power of substitution (such proxies and power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled with an interest in the tendered shares) to the full extent of such stockholder's rights with respect to such Shares and any Distributions (a) to deliver certificates representing Shares (the "Share Certificates") and any Distributions, or transfer of ownership of such Shares and any Distributions on the account books maintained by the Book-Entry Transfer Facility, together, in either such case, with all accompanying evidence of transfer and authenticity, to or upon the order of Purchaser upon receipt by Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the "Depositary"), as the undersigned's agent, of the aggregate purchase price (less any applicable tax withholding), (b) to present such Shares and any Distributions for transfer on the books of Servotronics, and (c) to receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all rights of beneficial ownership of such Shares and any Distributions, all in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

The undersigned hereby irrevocably appoints each of the designees of Purchaser as agents, attorneys-in-fact and proxies of the undersigned, each with full power of substitution, to the full extent of such stockholder's rights with respect to the Shares tendered hereby which have been accepted for purchase and with respect to any Distributions. The designees of Purchaser will, with respect to the Shares and any associated Distributions for which the appointment is effective, be empowered to exercise all voting, consent and any other rights of such stockholder, as they, in their sole discretion, may deem proper at any annual or special meeting of Servotronics stockholders or any adjournment or postponement thereof, by written consent in lieu of any such meeting or otherwise. This proxy and power of attorney shall be irrevocable and coupled with an interest in the tendered Shares and any associated Distributions. Such appointment is effective when, and only to the extent that, Purchaser accepts the Shares tendered with this Letter of Transmittal for purchase pursuant to the Offer. Upon the effectiveness of such appointment, without further action, all prior powers of attorney, proxies and consents given by the undersigned with respect to such Shares and any associated Distributions will be revoked and no subsequent powers of attorney, proxies, consents or revocations may be given nor any subsequent written consent executed (and, if given or executed, will not be deemed effective). Purchaser reserves the right to require that, in order for Shares to be deemed validly tendered, immediately upon Purchaser's acceptance for purchase of such Shares, Purchaser must be able to exercise full voting, consent and other rights, to the extent permitted under applicable law, with respect to such Shares and any associated Distributions, including voting at any meeting of stockholders or executing a written consent concerning any matter.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to tender, sell, assign and transfer the Shares and any Distributions tendered hereby and, when the same are accepted for purchase by Purchaser, Purchaser will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of

------

all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances and the same will not be subject to any adverse claim. The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned is the registered holder of the Shares, or the Share Certificate(s) have been endorsed to the undersigned in blank, or the undersigned is a participant in the Book-Entry Transfer Facility whose name appears on a security position listing as the holder of the Shares. The undersigned will, upon request, execute and deliver any additional documents deemed by the Depositary or Purchaser to be necessary or desirable to complete the sale, assignment and transfer of the Shares and any Distributions tendered hereby. In addition, the undersigned shall promptly remit and transfer to the Depositary for the account of Purchaser any and all Distributions in respect of the Shares tendered hereby, accompanied by appropriate documentation of transfer and, pending such remittance or appropriate assurance thereof, Purchaser shall be entitled to all rights and privileges as owner of any such Distributions and may withhold the entire purchase price or deduct from the purchase price the amount or value thereof, as determined by Purchaser in its sole discretion.

It is understood that the undersigned will not receive payment for the Shares unless and until the Shares are accepted for purchase and until the Share Certificate(s) owned by the undersigned are received by the Depositary at the address set forth above, together with such additional documents as the Depositary may require, or, in the case of Shares held in book-entry form, ownership of Shares is validly transferred on the account books maintained by the Book-Entry Transfer Facility, and until the same are processed for payment by the Depositary.

**IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF THE SHARES, THE SHARE CERTIFICATE(S) AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS (INCLUDING DELIVERY THROUGH THE BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER FACILITY) IS AT THE OPTION AND RISK OF THE UNDERSIGNED AND THAT THE RISK OF LOSS OF SUCH SHARES, SHARE CERTIFICATE(S) AND OTHER DOCUMENTS SHALL PASS ONLY AFTER THE DEPOSITARY HAS ACTUALLY RECEIVED THE SHARES OR SHARE CERTIFICATE(S) (INCLUDING, IN THE CASE OF A BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER, BY BOOK-ENTRY CONFIRMATION (AS DEFINED IN THE OFFER TO PURCHASE)). IF DELIVERY IS BY MAIL, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ALL SUCH DOCUMENTS BE SENT BY PROPERLY INSURED REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED. IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENSURE TIMELY DELIVERY.** 

All authority conferred or agreed to be conferred pursuant to this Letter of Transmittal shall not be affected by, and shall survive, the death or incapacity of the undersigned and any obligation of the undersigned hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, trustees in bankruptcy, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the undersigned. Except as stated in the Offer to Purchase, this tender is irrevocable.

The undersigned understands that the acceptance for purchase by Purchaser of Shares tendered pursuant to one of the procedures described in Section 3 of the Offer to Purchase and in the instructions hereto will constitute a binding agreement between the undersigned and Purchaser upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

Unless otherwise indicated herein under "Special Payment Instructions," please issue the check for the purchase price in the name(s) of, and/or return any Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for purchase to, the registered holder(s) appearing under "Description of Shares Tendered." Similarly, unless otherwise indicated under "Special Delivery Instructions," please mail the check for the purchase price and/or return any Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for purchase (and accompanying documents, as appropriate) to the address(es) of the registered holder(s) appearing under "Description of Shares Tendered." In the event that both the Special Delivery Instructions and the Special Payment Instructions are completed, please issue the check for the purchase price and/or issue any Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for purchase (and any accompanying documents, as appropriate) in the name of, and deliver such check and/or return such Share Certificates (and any accompanying documents, as appropriate) to, the person or persons so indicated. Unless otherwise indicated herein in the box titled "Special Payment Instructions," please credit any Shares tendered hereby or by an Agent's Message and delivered by book-entry transfer, but which are not purchased, by crediting the account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility designated above. The undersigned recognizes that Purchaser has no obligation pursuant to the Special Payment Instructions to transfer any Shares from the name of the registered holder thereof if Purchaser does not accept for purchase any of the Shares so tendered.

**INSTRUCTIONS** 

**Forming Part of the Terms and Conditions of the Offer** 

1. **Guarantee of Signatures.** No signature guarantee is required on this Letter of Transmittal if (i) this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered holder (which, for purposes of this Letter of Transmittal, includes any participant in the Book-Entry Transfer Facility's systems whose name appears on a security position listing as the owner of the Shares) of the Shares tendered herewith and such registered holder has not completed the box titled "Special Payment Instructions" or the box titled "Special Delivery Instructions" on this Letter of Transmittal or (ii) the Shares are tendered for the account of a financial institution (including most commercial banks, savings and loan associations and brokerage houses) that is a member in good standing of a recognized Medallion Program approved by the Securities Transfer Association, Inc., including the Security Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Medallion Signature Program and the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program, or any other "eligible guarantor institution," as such term is defined in Rule 17Ad-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (each, an "Eligible Institution"). In all other cases, all signatures on this Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution. See Instruction 5. If you have any questions regarding the need for a signature guarantee, please call the Information Agent at (844) 203-3605 or, if a bank or broker, (212) 297-0720.

2. **Delivery of Letter of Transmittal and Certificates or Book-Entry Confirmations.** This Letter of Transmittal is to be completed by stockholders if Share Certificates are to be forwarded herewith. If tenders are to be made pursuant to the procedures for tender by book-entry transfer set forth in Section 3 of the Offer to Purchase, an Agent's Message must be utilized. Original Share Certificates, or confirmation of any book-entry transfer into the Depositary's account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility of Shares tendered by book-entry transfer ("Book-Entry Confirmation"), as well as this Letter of Transmittal properly completed and duly executed with any required signature guarantees, or an Agent's Message in the case of a book-entry transfer, and any other documents required by this Letter of Transmittal, must be received by the Depositary at its address set forth herein prior to the expiration date (as defined in the Offer to Purchase). Please do not send your Share Certificates directly to Purchaser, TransDigm, or Servotronics.

A properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal must accompany each such delivery of Share Certificates to the Depositary.

The term "Agent's Message" means a message, transmitted through electronic means by the Book-Entry Transfer Facility to, and received by, the Depositary and forming part of a Book-Entry Confirmation, which states that the Book-Entry Transfer Facility has received an express acknowledgment from the participant in the Book-Entry Transfer Facility tendering the Shares that are the subject of such Book-Entry Confirmation that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Letter of Transmittal and that Purchaser may enforce such agreement against the participant. The term "Agent's Message" also includes any hard copy printout evidencing such message generated by a computer terminal maintained at the Depositary's office.

**THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF THE SHARES, THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING DELIVERY THROUGH THE BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER FACILITY, IS AT THE ELECTION AND RISK OF THE TENDERING STOCKHOLDER. DELIVERY OF ALL SUCH DOCUMENTS WILL BE DEEMED MADE AND RISK OF LOSS OF THE SHARE CERTIFICATES SHALL PASS ONLY WHEN ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY THE DEPOSITARY (INCLUDING, IN THE CASE OF A BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER, BY BOOK-ENTRY CONFIRMATION). IF SUCH DELIVERY IS BY MAIL, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ALL SUCH DOCUMENTS BE SENT BY PROPERLY INSURED REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED. IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENSURE TIMELY DELIVERY.** 

No alternative, conditional or contingent tenders will be accepted and no fractional Shares will be purchased. All tendering stockholders, by execution of this Letter of Transmittal, waive any right to receive any notice of the acceptance of their Shares for purchase.

------

All questions as to the form of documents (including notices of withdrawal) and the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance for purchase of any tender of Shares will be determined by Purchaser, in its sole discretion, which determination will be final and binding upon the tendering party, subject to the rights of holders of Shares to challenge such determination with respect to their Shares in a court of competent jurisdiction and any subsequent judgment of any such court. Purchaser reserves the absolute right to reject any and all tenders determined by it not to be in proper form or the acceptance of or payment for which may, in the opinion of Purchaser, be unlawful. Purchaser also reserves the absolute right to waive any condition of the Offer to the extent permitted by the Merger Agreement (as described in the Offer to Purchase) and applicable law or any defect or irregularity in the tender of any Shares of any particular stockholder, whether or not similar defects or irregularities are waived in the case of other stockholders. No tender of Shares will be deemed to have been validly made until all defects and irregularities have been cured or waived to the satisfaction of Purchaser. None of TransDigm, Purchaser, Servotronics, the Depositary, the Information Agent or any other person is or will be under any duty to give any notification of any defects or irregularities in tenders and none of them will incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.

3. **Inadequate Space.** If the space provided herein is inadequate, the certificate numbers and/or the number of Shares should be listed on a separate schedule attached hereto and separately signed on each page thereof in the same manner as this Letter of Transmittal is signed.

4. **Partial Tenders** (**Applicable to Certificate Stockholders Only**)**.** If fewer than all the Shares evidenced by any Share Certificate delivered to the Depositary are to be tendered, fill in the number of Shares which are to be tendered in the column titled "Number of Shares Tendered" in the box titled "Description of Shares Tendered." In such cases, new certificate(s) for the remainder of the Shares that were evidenced by the old certificate(s) but not tendered will be sent to the registered holder, unless otherwise provided in the appropriate box on this Letter of Transmittal, as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date. All Shares represented by Share Certificates delivered to the Depositary will be deemed to have been tendered unless otherwise indicated.

5. **Signatures on Letter of Transmittal; Stock Powers and Endorsements.** If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered holder(s) of the Shares tendered hereby, the signature(s) must correspond with the name(s) as written on the face of the Share Certificate(s) without alteration or any other change whatsoever.

If any Shares tendered hereby are owned of record by two or more joint owners, all such owners must sign this Letter of Transmittal.

If any tendered Shares are registered in the names of different holder(s), it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate Letters of Transmittal as there are different registrations of such Shares.

If this Letter of Transmittal or any certificates or stock powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should so indicate when signing, and proper evidence satisfactory to Purchaser of their authority so to act must be submitted or obtain a medallion guarantee of such signature. See Instruction 1 above.

If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered holder(s) of the Shares listed and transmitted hereby, no endorsements of Share Certificates or separate stock powers are required unless payment is to be made to, or Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for purchase are to be issued in the name of, a person other than the registered holder(s), in which case the Share Certificates representing the Shares tendered by this Letter of Transmittal must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate stock powers, in either case, signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered holder(s) appear(s) on the Share Certificates. Signatures on such Share Certificates or stock powers must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered holder(s) of the Share(s) listed, the Share Certificate(s) must be endorsed or accompanied by the appropriate stock powers, in either case, signed exactly as the name or names of the registered holder(s) appear(s) on the Share Certificate(s). Signatures on such Share Certificates or stock powers must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

6. **Transfer Taxes.** Purchaser will pay any transfer taxes with respect to the transfer and sale of Shares to it or to its order pursuant to the Offer (for the avoidance of doubt, transfer taxes do not include United States federal income or backup withholding taxes or any transfer tax imposed for any reason other than tender of Shares in the Offer). If, however, payment of the purchase price is to be made to, or (in the circumstances permitted hereby) if Share Certificates not tendered or accepted for purchase are to be registered in the name of, any person other than the registered holder(s), or if tendered Share Certificates are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing this Letter of Transmittal, the amount of any transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered holder(s) or such person) payable on account of the transfer will be the responsibility of the registered holder and satisfactory evidence of the payment of such taxes or exemption of the payment of such taxes or exemption from the payment of such taxes may need to be submitted.

**Except as provided in this Instruction 6, it will not be necessary for transfer tax stamps to be affixed to the Share Certificates listed in this Letter of Transmittal.** 

7. **Special Payment and Delivery Instructions.** If a check for the purchase price is to be issued, and/or Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for purchase are to be issued or returned to, a person other than the signer(s) of this Letter of Transmittal or to an address other than that shown in the box titled "Description of Shares Tendered" above, the appropriate boxes on this Letter of Transmittal should be completed.

8. **Requests for Assistance or Additional Copies.** Questions or requests for assistance may be directed to the Information Agent at the addresses and telephone numbers set forth on the back page of this Letter of Transmittal or to your broker, dealer, commercial bank or trust company. Additional copies of the Offer to Purchase, this Letter of Transmittal and other tender offer materials may be obtained from the Information Agent and will be furnished at Purchaser's expense.

9. **Backup Withholding.** Under U.S. federal income tax laws, the Depositary will be required to withhold a portion of the amount of any payments made to certain stockholders pursuant to the Offer. In order to avoid such backup withholding, each tendering stockholder or payee that is a United States person (for U.S. federal income tax purposes), must provide the Depositary with such stockholder's or payee's correct taxpayer identification number ("TIN") and certify that such stockholder or payee is not subject to such backup withholding by completing the attached Form W-9. Certain stockholders or payees (including, among others, corporations, non-resident foreign individuals and foreign entities) are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements. A tendering stockholder who is a foreign individual or a foreign entity should complete, sign, and submit to the Depositary the appropriate Form W-8. A Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E may be obtained from the Depositary or downloaded from the Internal Revenue Service's website at the following address: *http://www.irs.gov.* Failure to complete the Form W-9 will not, by itself, cause Shares to be deemed invalidly tendered, but may require the Depositary to withhold a portion of the amount of any payments made of the Offer Price pursuant to the Offer.

**NOTE: FAILURE TO COMPLETE AND RETURN THE FORM W-9 MAY RESULT IN BACKUP WITHHOLDING OF A PORTION OF ANY PAYMENTS MADE TO YOU PURSUANT TO THE OFFER. PLEASE REVIEW THE "IMPORTANT TAX INFORMATION" SECTION BELOW.** 

10. **Lost, Destroyed, Mutilated or Stolen Share Certificates.** If any Share Certificate has been lost, destroyed, mutilated or stolen, the stockholder should promptly notify Servotronics' stock transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A. at (877) 282-1168. The stockholder will then be instructed as to the steps that must be taken in order to replace the Share Certificate. This Letter of Transmittal and related documents cannot be processed until the procedures for replacing lost, mutilated, destroyed or stolen Share Certificates have been followed.

11. **Waiver of Conditions.** Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the conditions of the Offer (except for the Minimum Condition and the Termination Condition (each as defined in the Offer to Purchase)) may be waived by Purchaser in whole or in part at any time and from time to time in its sole discretion.

------

**IMPORTANT: THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL OR AN AGENT'S MESSAGE, TOGETHER WITH SHARE CERTIFICATE(S) OR BOOK-ENTRY CONFIRMATION AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS, MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE DEPOSITARY PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE.** 

------

**IMPORTANT TAX INFORMATION** 

Under United States federal income tax law, a stockholder that is a non-exempt United States person (for U.S. federal income tax purposes) whose tendered Shares are accepted for purchase is required by law to provide the Depositary (as payer) with such stockholder's correct TIN on Form W-9 below. If such stockholder is an individual, the TIN is such stockholder's social security number. If the tendering stockholder has not been issued a TIN and has applied for a number or intends to apply for a number in the near future, the stockholder should write "Applied For" in Part I, sign and date the Form W-9. Notwithstanding that "Applied For" is written in Part I, the Depositary will withhold 24% of all payments of the purchase price to such stockholder until a TIN is provided to the Depositary. If the Depositary is not provided with the correct TIN, the stockholder may be subject to penalties imposed by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and payments that are made to such stockholder with respect to Shares purchased pursuant to the Offer may be subject to backup withholding.

If backup withholding applies, the Depositary is required to withhold 24% of any payments of the purchase price made to the stockholder. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund or credit may be obtained from the IRS provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS.

**Please consult your accountant or tax advisor for further guidance regarding the completion of IRS Form W-9, IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or another version of IRS Form W-8 to claim exemption from backup withholding.**

| Form W-9 (Rev. 3-2024) | Page<sub>2</sub> |

---

New line 3b has been added to this form. A flow-through entity is required to complete this line to indicate that it has direct or indirect foreign partners, owners, or beneficiaries when it provides the Form W-9 to another flow-through entity in which it has an ownership interest. This change is intended to provide a flow-through entity with information regarding the status of its indirect foreign partners, owners, or beneficiaries, so that it can satisfy any applicable reporting requirements. For example, a partnership that has any indirect foreign partners may be required to complete Schedules K-2 and K-3. See the Partnership Instructions for Schedules K-2 and K-3 (Form 1065).

**Purpose of Form** 

An individual or entity (Form W-9 requester) who is required to file an information return with the IRS is giving you this form because they must obtain your correct taxpayer identification number (TIN), which may be your social security number (SSN), individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN), adoption taxpayer identification number (ATIN), or employer identification number (EIN), to report on an information return the amount paid to you, or other amount reportable on an information return. Examples of information returns include, but are not limited to, the following.

• Form 1099-INT (interest earned or paid).

• Form 1099-DIV (dividends, including those from stocks or mutual funds).

• Form 1099-MISC (various types of income, prizes, awards, or gross proceeds).

• Form 1099-NEC (nonemployee compensation).

• Form 1099-B (stock or mutual fund sales and certain other transactions by brokers).

• Form 1099-S (proceeds from real estate transactions).

• Form 1099-K (merchant card and third-party network transactions).

• Form 1098 (home mortgage interest), 1098-E (student loan interest), and 1098-T (tuition).

• Form 1099-C (canceled debt).

• Form 1099-A (acquisition or abandonment of secured property).

Use Form W-9 only if you are a U.S. person (including a resident alien), to provide your correct TIN.

**Caution:** If you don't return Form W-9 to the requester with a TIN, you might be subject to backup withholding. See *What is backup withholding*, later.

**By signing the filled-out form**, you:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are waiting for a number to be issued);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S. exempt payee; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. Certify to your non-foreign status for purposes of withholding under chapter 3 or 4 of the Code (if applicable); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. Certify that FATCA code(s) entered on this form (if any) indicating that you are exempt from the FATCA reporting is correct. See *What Is FATCA Reporting*, later, for further information.

**Note:** If you are a U.S. person and a requester gives you a form other than Form W-9 to request your TIN, you must use the requester's form if it is substantially similar to this Form W-9.

**Definition of a U.S. person.** For federal tax purposes, you are considered a U.S. person if you are:

• An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien;

• A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States;

• An estate (other than a foreign estate); or

• A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7).

**Establishing U.S. status for purposes of chapter 3 and chapter 4 withholding.** Payments made to foreign persons, including certain distributions, allocations of income, or transfers of sales proceeds, may be subject to withholding under chapter 3 or chapter 4 of the Code (sections 1441-1474). Under those rules, if a Form W-9 or other certification of non-foreign status has not been received, a withholding agent, transferee, or partnership (payor) generally applies presumption rules that may require the payor to withhold applicable tax from the recipient, owner, transferor, or partner (payee). See Pub. 515, Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities.

The following persons must provide Form W-9 to the payor for purposes of establishing its non-foreign status.

• In the case of a disregarded entity with a U.S. owner, the U.S. owner of the disregarded entity and not the disregarded entity.

• In the case of a grantor trust with a U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner, generally, the U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner of the grantor trust and not the grantor trust.

• In the case of a U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust), the U.S. trust and not the beneficiaries of the trust.

See Pub. 515 for more information on providing a Form W-9 or a certification of non-foreign status to avoid withholding.

**Foreign person.** If you are a foreign person or the U.S. branch of a foreign bank that has elected to be treated as a U.S. person (under Regulations section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) or other applicable section for chapter 3 or 4 purposes), do not use Form W-9. Instead, use the appropriate Form W-8 or Form 8233 (see Pub. 515). If you are a qualified foreign pension fund under Regulations section 1.897(l)-1(d), or a partnership that is wholly owned by

qualified foreign pension funds, that is treated as a non-foreign person for purposes of section 1445 withholding, do not use Form W-9. Instead, use Form W-8EXP (or other certification of non-foreign status).

**Nonresident alien who becomes a resident alien.** Generally, only a nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax treaty to reduce or eliminate U.S. tax on certain types of income. However, most tax treaties contain a provision known as a saving clause. Exceptions specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to continue for certain types of income even after the payee has otherwise become a U.S. resident alien for tax purposes.

If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exception contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exemption from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must attach a statement to Form W-9 that specifies the following five items.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The treaty article addressing the income.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. The article number (or location) in the tax treaty that contains the saving clause and its exceptions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. The type and amount of income that qualifies for the exemption from tax.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. Sufficient facts to justify the exemption from tax under the terms of the treaty article.

***Example.*** Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese student temporarily present in the United States. Under U.S. law, this student will become a resident alien for tax purposes if their stay in the United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However, paragraph 2 of the first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allows the provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese student becomes a resident alien of the United States. A Chinese student who qualifies for this exception (under paragraph 2 of the first Protocol) and is relying on this exception to claim an exemption from tax on their scholarship or fellowship income would attach to Form W-9 a statement that includes the information described above to support that exemption.

If you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity, give the requester the appropriate completed Form W-8 or Form 8233.

**Backup Withholding** 

**What is backup withholding?** Persons making certain payments to you must under certain conditions withhold and pay to the IRS 24% of such payments. This is called "backup withholding." Payments that may be subject to backup withholding include, but are not limited to, interest, tax-exempt interest, dividends, broker and barter exchange transactions, rents, royalties, nonemployee pay, payments made in settlement of payment card and third-party network transactions, and certain payments from fishing boat operators. Real estate transactions are not subject to backup withholding.

You will not be subject to backup withholding on payments you receive if you give the requester your correct TIN, make the proper certifications, and report all your taxable interest and dividends on your tax return.

**Payments you receive will be subject to backup withholding if:** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. You do not furnish your TIN to the requester;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. You do not certify your TIN when required (see the instructions for Part II for details);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. The IRS tells the requester that you furnished an incorrect TIN;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. The IRS tells you that you are subject to backup withholding because you did not report all your interest and dividends on your tax return (for reportable interest and dividends only); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. You do not certify to the requester that you are not subject to backup withholding, as described in item 4 under "*By signing the filled-out form*" above (for reportable interest and dividend accounts opened after 1983 only).

Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding. See *Exempt payee code*, later, and the separate Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.

See also *Establishing U.S. status for purposes of chapter 3 and chapter 4 withholding,* earlier.

**What Is FATCA Reporting?** 

The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) requires a participating foreign financial institution to report all U.S. account holders that are specified U.S. persons. Certain payees are exempt from FATCA reporting. See *Exemption from FATCA reporting code*, later, and the Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.

**Updating Your Information** 

You must provide updated information to any person to whom you claimed to be an exempt payee if you are no longer an exempt payee and anticipate receiving reportable payments in the future from this person. For example, you may need to provide updated information if you are a C corporation that elects to be an S corporation, or if you are no longer tax exempt. In addition, you must furnish a new Form W-9 if the name or TIN changes for the account, for example, if the grantor of a grantor trust dies.

**Penalties** 

**Failure to furnish TIN.** If you fail to furnish your correct TIN to a requester, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect.

---

**Civil penalty for false information with respect to withholding.** If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in no backup withholding, you are subject to a $500 penalty.

**Criminal penalty for falsifying information.** Willfully falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment.

**Misuse of TINs.** If the requester discloses or uses TINs in violation of federal law, the requester may be subject to civil and criminal penalties.

**Specific Instructions** 

**Line 1** 

You must enter one of the following on this line; **do not** leave this line blank. The name should match the name on your tax return.

If this Form W-9 is for a joint account (other than an account maintained by a foreign financial institution (FFI)), list first, and then circle, the name of the person or entity whose number you entered in Part I of Form W-9. If you are providing Form W-9 to an FFI to document a joint account, each holder of the account that is a U.S. person must provide a Form W-9.

• **Individual.** Generally, enter the name shown on your tax return. If you have changed your last name without informing the Social Security Administration (SSA) of the name change, enter your first name, the last name as shown on your social security card, and your new last name.

**Note for ITIN applicant:** Enter your individual name as it was entered on your Form W-7 application, line 1a. This should also be the same as the name you entered on the Form 1040 you filed with your application.

• **Sole proprietor.** Enter your individual name as shown on your Form 1040 on line 1. Enter your business, trade, or "doing business as" (DBA) name on line 2.

• **Partnership, C corporation, S corporation, or LLC, other than a disregarded entity.** Enter the entity's name as shown on the entity's tax return on line 1 and any business, trade, or DBA name on line 2.

• **Other entities.** Enter your name as shown on required U.S. federal tax documents on line 1. This name should match the name shown on the charter or other legal document creating the entity. Enter any business, trade, or DBA name on line 2.

• **Disregarded entity.** In general, a business entity that has a single owner, including an LLC, and is not a corporation, is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner (a disregarded entity). See Regulations section 301.7701-2(c)(2). A disregarded entity should check the appropriate box for the tax classification of its owner. Enter the owner's name on line 1. The name of the owner entered on line 1 should never be a disregarded entity. The name on line 1 should be the name shown on the income tax return on which the income should be reported. For example, if a foreign LLC that is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal tax purposes has a single owner that is a U.S. person, the U.S. owner's name is required to be provided on line 1. If the direct owner of the entity is also a disregarded entity, enter the first owner that is not disregarded for federal tax purposes. Enter the disregarded entity's name on line 2. If the owner of the disregarded entity is a foreign person, the owner must complete an appropriate Form W-8 instead of a Form W-9. This is the case even if the foreign person has a U.S. TIN.

**Line 2** 

If you have a business name, trade name, DBA name, or disregarded entity name, enter it on line 2.

**Line 3a** 

Check the appropriate box on line 3a for the U.S. federal tax classification of the person whose name is entered on line 1. Check only one box on line 3a.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**IF the entity/individual on line 1 is a(n) . . .** | **THEN check the box for . . .** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Corporation | Corporation. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; • Individual or<br>• Sole proprietorship | Individual/sole proprietor. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; • LLC classified as a partnership for U.S. federal tax purposes or<br>• LLC that has filed Form 8832 or 2553 electing to be taxed as a corporation | Limited liability company and enter the appropriate tax classification:<br> P = Partnership,<br> C = C corporation, or<br> S = S corporation. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Partnership | Partnership. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Trust/estate | Trust/estate. |

---

**Line 3b** 

Check this box if you are a partnership (including an LLC classified as a partnership for U.S. federal tax purposes), trust, or estate that has any foreign partners, owners, or beneficiaries, and you are providing this form to a partnership, trust, or estate, in which you have an ownership interest. You must check the box on line 3b if you receive a Form W-8 (or documentary evidence) from any partner, owner, or beneficiary establishing foreign status or if you receive a Form W-9 from any partner, owner, or beneficiary that has checked the box on line 3b.

**Note:** A partnership that provides a Form W-9 and checks box 3b may be required to complete Schedules K-2 and K-3 (Form 1065). For more information, see the Partnership Instructions for Schedules K-2 and K-3 (Form 1065).

If you are required to complete line 3b but fail to do so, you may not receive the information necessary to file a correct information return with the IRS or furnish a correct payee statement to your partners or beneficiaries. See, for example, sections 6698, 6722, and 6724 for penalties that may apply.

**Line 4 Exemptions**

**Note:** You may wish to consult with the financial institution requesting this form to determine whether the FATCA code and/or exempt payee code should be completed.

**Line 5** 

Enter your address (number, street, and apartment or suite number). This is where the requester of this Form W-9 will mail your information returns. If this address differs from the one the requester already has on file, enter "NEW" at the top. If a new address is provided, there is still a chance the old address will be used until the payor changes your address in their records.

**Line 6** 

Enter your city, state, and ZIP code.

**Part I. Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)** 

**Enter your TIN in the appropriate box.** If you are a resident alien and you do not have, and are not eligible to get, an SSN, your TIN is your IRS ITIN. Enter it in the entry space for the Social security number. If you do not have an ITIN, see *How to get a TIN* below.

If you are a sole proprietor and you have an EIN, you may enter either your SSN or EIN.

If you are a single-member LLC that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner, enter the owner's SSN (or EIN, if the owner has one). If the LLC is classified as a corporation or partnership, enter the entity's EIN.

**Note:** See *What Name and Number To Give the Requester*, later, for further clarification of name and TIN combinations.

**How to get a TIN.** If you do not have a TIN, apply for one immediately. To apply for an SSN, get Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Card, from your local SSA office or get this form online at *www.SSA.gov*. You may also get this form by calling 800-772-1213. Use Form W-7, Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, to apply for an ITIN, or Form SS-4, Application for Employer Identification Number, to apply for an EIN. You can apply for an EIN online by accessing the IRS website at *www.irs.gov/EIN*. Go to *www.irs.gov/Forms* to view, download, or print Form W-7 and/or Form SS-4. Or, you can go to *www.irs.gov/OrderForms* to place an order and have Form W-7 and/or Form SS-4 mailed to you within 15 business days.

If you are asked to complete Form W-9 but do not have a TIN, apply for a TIN and enter "Applied For" in the space for the TIN, sign and date the form, and give it to the requester. For interest and dividend payments, and certain payments made with respect to readily tradable instruments, you will generally have 60 days to get a TIN and give it to the requester before you are subject to backup withholding on payments. The 60-day rule does not apply to other types of payments. You will be subject to backup withholding on all such payments until you provide your TIN to the requester.

**Note:** Entering "Applied For" means that you have already applied for a TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon. See also *Establishing U.S. status for purposes of chapter 3 and chapter 4 withholding*, earlier, for when you may instead be subject to withholding under chapter 3 or 4 of the Code.

**Caution:** A disregarded U.S. entity that has a foreign owner must use the appropriate Form W-8.

**Part II. Certification** 

To establish to the withholding agent that you are a U.S. person, or resident alien, sign Form W-9. You may be requested to sign by the withholding agent even if item 1, 4, or 5 below indicates otherwise.

For a joint account, only the person whose TIN is shown in Part I should sign (when required). In the case of a disregarded entity, the person identified on line 1 must sign. Exempt payees, see *Exempt payee code*, earlier.

**Signature requirements.** Complete the certification as indicated in items 1 through 5 below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1. Interest, dividend, and barter exchange accounts opened before 1984 and broker accounts considered active during 1983.** You must give your correct TIN, but you do not have to sign the certification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2. Interest, dividend, broker, and barter exchange accounts opened after 1983 and broker accounts considered inactive during 1983.** You must sign the certification or backup withholding will apply. If you are subject to backup withholding and you are merely providing your correct TIN to the requester, you must cross out item 2 in the certification before signing the form.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3. Real estate transactions.** You must sign the certification. You may cross out item 2 of the certification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4. Other payments.** You must give your correct TIN, but you do not have to sign the certification unless you have been notified that you have previously given an incorrect TIN. "Other payments" include payments made in the course of the requester's trade or business for rents, royalties, goods (other than bills for merchandise), medical and health care services (including payments to corporations), payments to a nonemployee for services, payments made in settlement of payment card and third-party network transactions, payments to certain fishing boat crew members and fishermen, and gross proceeds paid to attorneys (including payments to corporations).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5. Mortgage interest paid by you, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation of debt, qualified tuition program payments (under section 529), ABLE accounts (under section 529A), IRA, Coverdell ESA, Archer MSA or HSA contributions or distributions, and pension distributions.** You must give your correct TIN, but you do not have to sign the certification.

**Secure Your Tax Records From Identity Theft** 

Identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information, such as your name, SSN, or other identifying information, without your permission to commit fraud or other crimes. An identity thief may use your SSN to get a job or may file a tax return using your SSN to receive a refund.

To reduce your risk:

• Protect your SSN,

• Ensure your employer is protecting your SSN, and

• Be careful when choosing a tax return preparer.

If your tax records are affected by identity theft and you receive a notice from the IRS, respond right away to the name and phone number printed on the IRS notice or letter.

If your tax records are not currently affected by identity theft but you think you are at risk due to a lost or stolen purse or wallet, questionable credit card activity, or a questionable credit report, contact the IRS Identity Theft Hotline at 800-908-4490 or submit Form 14039.

For more information, see Pub. 5027, Identity Theft Information for Taxpayers.

Victims of identity theft who are experiencing economic harm or a systemic problem, or are seeking help in resolving tax problems that have not been resolved through normal channels, may be eligible for Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) assistance. You can reach TAS by calling the TAS toll-free case intake line at 877-777-4778 or TTY/TDD 800-829-4059.

**Protect yourself from suspicious emails or phishing schemes.** Phishing is the creation and use of email and websites designed to mimic legitimate business emails and websites. The most common act is sending an email to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft.

The IRS does not initiate contacts with taxpayers via emails. Also, the IRS does not request personal detailed information through email or ask taxpayers for the PIN numbers, passwords, or similar secret access information for their credit card, bank, or other financial accounts.

If you receive an unsolicited email claiming to be from the IRS, forward this message to *phishing@irs.gov*. You may also report misuse of the IRS name, logo, or other IRS property to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) at 800-366-4484. You can forward suspicious emails to the Federal Trade Commission at *spam@uce.gov* or report them at *www.ftc.gov/complaint*. You can contact the FTC at *www.ftc.gov/idtheft* or 877-IDTHEFT (877-438-4338). If you have been the victim of identity theft, see *www.IdentityTheft.gov* and Pub. 5027.

Go to *www.irs.gov/IdentityTheft* to learn more about identity theft and how to reduce your risk.

**Privacy Act Notice** 

Section 6109 of the Internal Revenue Code requires you to provide your correct TIN to persons (including federal agencies) who are required to file information returns with the IRS to report interest, dividends, or certain other income paid to you; mortgage interest you paid; the acquisition or abandonment of secured property; the cancellation of debt; or contributions you made to an IRA, Archer MSA, or HSA. The person collecting this form uses the information on the form to file information returns with the IRS, reporting the above information. Routine uses of this information include giving it to the Department of Justice for civil and criminal litigation and to cities, states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. commonwealths and territories for use in administering their laws. The information may also be disclosed to other countries under a treaty, to federal and state agencies to enforce civil and criminal laws, or to federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies to combat terrorism. You must provide your TIN whether or not you are required to file a tax return. Under section 3406, payors must generally withhold a percentage of taxable interest, dividends, and certain other payments to a payee who does not give a TIN to the payor. Certain penalties may also apply for providing false or fraudulent information.

**To Our Clients**:

Enclosed for your consideration are an Offer to Purchase, dated June 2, 2025 (the "Offer to Purchase"), and a related Letter of Transmittal in connection with the offer (the "Offer") by TDG Rise Merger Sub, Inc. ("Purchaser"), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Inc. ("TransDigm"), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated, to purchase each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.20 per share (the "Servotronics common stock"), of Servotronics, Inc. ("Servotronics"), a Delaware corporation, validly tendered and not properly withdrawn in the Offer, for $47.00 net in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer. Servotronics' Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 is also being provided to you.

**We (or our nominees) are the holder of record of shares of Servotronics common stock held by us for your account. A tender of such shares can be made only by us as the holder of record and pursuant to your instructions. The enclosed Letter of Transmittal is furnished to you for your information only and cannot be used by you to tender Servotronics common stock held by us for your account.** 

Accordingly, we request instructions as to whether you wish us to tender on your behalf the shares of Servotronics common stock held by us for your account, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer.

Your attention is directed to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The consideration for each share of Servotronics common stock is $47.00 net in cash, without interest and less
any applicable withholding taxes, as described in the Offer to Purchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The Offer is being made for all outstanding shares of Servotronics common stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. The Offer is being made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 18, 2025, among
Purchaser, TransDigm and Servotronics, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and

------

Plan of Merger, dated as of May 28, 2025 (as amended, the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which, after the completion of the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, Purchaser will be merged with and into Servotronics, without a meeting or any further action of the Servotronics stockholders in accordance with Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL"), and Servotronics will be the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm (such corporation, the "Surviving Corporation" and such merger, the "Merger"). At the effective time of the Merger, each share of Servotronics common stock then outstanding (other than shares of Servotronics common stock irrevocably accepted as payment in the Offer, treasury stock of Servotronics to be cancelled or shares of Servotronics common stock that are held by any stockholders or beneficial owners properly exercising their appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL in connection with the Merger as described in the Offer to Purchase) will be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, net to the holder thereof in cash, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes, except for Servotronics common stock then owned by Servotronics and its subsidiaries, which shares of Servotronics common stock will be canceled and will cease to exist, and no consideration will be delivered in exchange therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. The board of directors of Servotronics unanimously (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger
Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, (ii) determined that the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Offer and the Merger are fair to, advisable and in the best interests of, Servotronics and
its stockholders, (iii) directed that the Merger be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL and that the Merger be consummated as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) and
(iv) recommended that Servotronics' stockholders accept the Offer and tender their shares of Servotronics common stock to Purchaser in the Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. The Offer and the withdrawal rights expire at one minute after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on Monday,
June 30, 2025, unless extended as described in the Offer to Purchase (as extended, the "Expiration Date").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. The Offer is not subject to any financing condition. The Offer is subject to certain conditions described in
Section 15 of the Offer to Purchase.

**of** 

**TransDigm Group Incorporated** 

TDG Rise Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Purchaser") and a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Inc., a Delaware corporation ("TransDigm") and a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated, is making an offer to purchase (the "Offer") all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.20 per share (the "Shares"), of Servotronics, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Servotronics"), at a price of $47.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes (the "Offer Price"), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated June 2, 2025 (the "Offer to Purchase"), and in the related Letter of Transmittal. Tendering stockholders whose Shares are registered in their names and who tender directly to Purchaser will not be charged brokerage fees or similar expenses on the sale of Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer. Tendering stockholders whose Shares are registered in the name of their broker, bank or other nominee should consult such nominee to determine if any fees may apply.

THE OFFER WILL EXPIRE AT ONE MINUTE AFTER 11:59 P.M., NEW YORK CITY TIME, ON MONDAY, JUNE 30, 2025, UNLESS THE OFFER IS EXTENDED OR EARLIER TERMINATED. PREVIOUSLY TENDERED SHARES MAY BE WITHDRAWN AT ANY TIME UNTIL THE OFFER HAS EXPIRED.

The Offer is being made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 18, 2025, by and among TransDigm, Purchaser and Servotronics, as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated as of May 28, 2025 (as amended, the "Merger Agreement"). The Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition (as described below). The Offer is not subject to any conditions related to financing or required regulatory approvals.

The term "Minimum Condition" is defined in the Offer to Purchase and generally requires that the number of Shares that have been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date (as defined

------

below), together with the Shares (if any) then owned by TransDigm and its subsidiaries (including Purchaser), represent at least a majority of the sum of the number of Shares then issued and outstanding and the number of Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding performance share units with respect to the Shares.

The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that, subject to certain conditions including completion of the Offer, Purchaser will be merged with and into Servotronics (the "Merger") pursuant to Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") without a vote of Servotronics' stockholders as soon as practicable after Purchaser accepts for purchase Shares in the Offer, with Servotronics continuing as the surviving corporation as a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares irrevocably accepted as payment in the Offer, treasury stock of Servotronics to be cancelled or Shares held by Servotronics stockholders properly exercising their appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL) will be converted into the right to receive $47.00 in cash, without any interest and less any applicable withholding taxes.

Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, TransDigm and Purchaser entered into a tender and support agreement (the "Support Agreement") with certain key stockholders of Servotronics (consisting of all directors and certain executive officers of the Company and their affiliates) (together, the "Supporting Stockholders"), pursuant to which the Supporting Stockholders have agreed to tender all Shares beneficially owned by them in the Offer and otherwise support the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The Support Agreement terminates upon certain events, including any termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms. In such case, any shares tendered by the Supporting Stockholders would be returned. The Supporting Stockholders beneficially own an aggregate of approximately 20.25% of the issued and outstanding Shares.

The Board of Directors of Servotronics unanimously (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger (the "Transactions"), (ii) determined that the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Offer and the Merger are fair to, advisable and in the best interests of, Servotronics and its stockholders, (iii) directed that the Merger be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL and that the Merger be consummated as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time (as defined below) and (iv) recommended that Servotronics' stockholders accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser in the Offer.

**Descriptions of the reasons for the Board of Directors of Servotronics' recommendation and approval of the Offer are set forth in Servotronics' Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (the "Schedule 14D-9"), which is being mailed to Servotronics stockholders in addition to the Offer materials (including the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal). Stockholders should carefully read the information set forth in the Schedule 14D-9.** 

For purposes of the Offer, Purchaser will be deemed to have accepted for purchase, and thereby purchased, Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn as, if and when Purchaser gives oral or written notice to the Depositary (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) of Purchaser's acceptance for purchase of those Shares pursuant to the Offer. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, payment for Shares accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offer will be made by deposit of the purchase price for those Shares with the Depositary, which will act as agent for tendering stockholders for the purpose of receiving payments from Purchaser and transmitting those payments to tendering stockholders whose Shares have been accepted for purchase. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Offer, payment for Shares accepted pursuant to the Offer will in all cases be made only after timely receipt by the Depositary of (i) certificates evidencing those Shares ("Share Certificates") or a book-entry confirmation of a book-entry transfer of those Shares into the Depositary's account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Offer to Purchase, (ii) the Letter of Transmittal, properly completed and duly executed, with any required signature guarantees or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent's Message (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) in lieu of the Letter of Transmittal and (iii) any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal. Under no circumstances will Purchaser pay interest on the consideration paid for tendered Shares, regardless of any extension of or amendment to the Offer or any delay in making payment.

------

The Offer will expire at one minute after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on Monday, June 30, 2025, unless Purchaser, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, extends the period during which the Offer is open, in which event the expiration date of the Offer is the latest date and time at which the Offer, as so extended, expires (that date and time, including any such extensions, the "Expiration Date").

Purchaser is not providing for guaranteed delivery procedures. Therefore, Servotronics stockholders must allow sufficient time for the necessary tender procedures to be completed during normal business hours of the Book-Entry Transfer Facility, which end earlier than the time of expiration on the Expiration Date. Normal business hours of the Book-Entry Transfer Facility are between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, Monday through Friday, other than holidays. **Servotronics stockholders must tender their Shares in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal prior to the Expiration Date. Tenders received by the Depositary after the Expiration Date will be disregarded and of no effect.**

The Merger Agreement provides that so long as neither Servotronics nor TransDigm terminates the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, Purchaser must extend the Offer (i) for one or more successive extension periods of up to 10 business days if at any scheduled Expiration Date any of the conditions to Purchaser's obligation to accept for purchase and pay for the Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer (the "Offer Conditions") is not satisfied or, if permitted under the Merger Agreement, waived, but if at any scheduled Expiration Date the only Offer Condition not satisfied is the Minimum Condition, then Purchaser is not required to extend the Offer for more than two subsequent extension periods of 10 business days each, and no extension of the Offer may extend past November 18, 2025 without Servotronics' consent (provided, that such outside date may be extended by either TransDigm or Servotronics for a period of up to three months if the only Offer Condition not satisfied is the condition described in paragraph (c)(i) of Annex I of the Merger Agreement related to legal restraints prohibiting consummation of the Offer), and (ii) for any period or periods required by any applicable law, rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the Securities Exchange Commission or its staff or of the NYSE American.

Any extension of the Offer will be followed as promptly as practicable by a public announcement thereof. That announcement will be made no later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date. During any such extension, all Shares previously tendered and not properly withdrawn will remain subject to the Offer, subject to the rights of a tendering stockholder to withdraw that stockholder's Shares. Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn at any time prior to the Expiration Date. For a withdrawal to be effective, a written notice of withdrawal must be received prior to the Expiration Date by the Depositary at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of the Offer to Purchase. Any such notice of withdrawal must specify the name of the person who tendered the Shares to be withdrawn, the number of Shares to be withdrawn and the name of the registered holder of those Shares, if different from that of the person who tendered those Shares. If Share Certificates evidencing Shares to be withdrawn have been delivered or otherwise identified to the Depositary, then, prior to the physical release of those Share Certificates, the serial numbers shown on those Share Certificates must be submitted to the Depositary and the signature(s) on the notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution (as defined in the Offer to Purchase), unless those Shares have been tendered for the account of an Eligible Institution. If Shares have been tendered pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer as set forth in the Offer to Purchase, any notice of withdrawal must also specify the name and number of the account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility to be credited with the withdrawn Shares.

All questions as to validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance for purchase of any tendered Shares will be determined by Purchaser, in its sole discretion, which determination will be final and binding upon the tendering party, subject to the rights of holders of Shares to challenge such determination with respect to their Shares in a court of competent jurisdiction and any subsequent judgment of any such court.

The exchange of Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer or the Merger will be a taxable transaction for United States federal income tax purposes and may also be a taxable transaction under applicable state, local or foreign tax laws. Stockholders should consult with their tax advisors to determine the particular tax consequences to

------

them of the Offer and the Merger (including the application and effect of any state, local or foreign income and other tax laws). For a more complete description of material United States federal income tax consequences of the Offer and the Merger, see the Offer to Purchase.

The information required to be disclosed by Paragraph (d)(1) of Rule 14d-6 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is contained in the Offer to Purchase and is incorporated herein by reference.

Servotronics has provided Purchaser with Servotronics' stockholder list, security position listings and other information for the purpose of disseminating the Offer to holders of Shares. The Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal and other related documents, will be mailed to record holders of Shares whose names appear on Servotronics' stockholder list and will be furnished, for subsequent transmittal to beneficial owners of Shares, to brokers, dealers, commercial banks, trust companies and other nominees whose names, or the names of whose nominees, appear on the stockholder list or, if applicable, who are listed as participants in a clearing agency's security position listing.

**THE OFFER TO PURCHASE AND THE RELATED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION THAT SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE ANY DECISION IS MADE WITH RESPECT TO THE OFFER.** 

Questions or requests for assistance or additional copies of the Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal, which will be provided to stockholders at Purchaser's expense, may be directed to the Information Agent at the address, telephone number and email address set forth below. Stockholders may also contact their broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee for assistance concerning the Offer.

**To Participants in the Servotronics, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP")**:

Enclosed for your consideration are an Offer to Purchase, dated June 2, 2025 (the "Offer to Purchase"), and a related Letter of Transmittal in connection with the offer (the "Offer") by TDG Rise Merger Sub, Inc. ("Purchaser"), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Inc. ("TransDigm"), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated, to purchase each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.20 per share (the "Servotronics common stock"), of Servotronics, Inc. ("Servotronics"), a Delaware corporation, validly tendered and not properly withdrawn in the Offer, for $47.00 net in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer. Servotronics' Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 is also being provided to you.

As a participant in the ESOP, you have the right to instruct the trustees of the ESOP (the "Trustees") whether or not to tender shares of Servotronics common stock allocated to your ESOP account. The Trustees generally will follow your instructions as long as the Trustees determine that (a) participants were provided with all necessary information regarding the Offer, and clearly false or misleading information was not distributed to them, and (b) following the participants' instructions would not result in a violation of ERISA, including their fiduciary duties. The Trustees, or an independent trustee appointed by Servotronics for this purpose, will determine whether to tender unallocated Shares and Shares for which no tender instructions are received.

If shares of Servotronics common stock held in the ESOP are validly tendered and not withdrawn, and the Offer is completed, the Offer Price for such shares will be paid to the ESOP in cash and allocated to the applicable participants' accounts. Any shares of Servotronics common stock held in the ESOP that are not tendered in the Offer, if the Merger is completed, will be converted at the Effective Time into the right of the ESOP to receive the Offer Price for such Shares in cash, which would also be allocated to the applicable participants' accounts.

**A tender of shares held in the ESOP can only be made by the Trustees. The enclosed Letter of Transmittal is furnished to you for your information only and cannot be used by you to tender Servotronics common stock held in the ESOP.** 

------

Accordingly, the Trustees request instructions as to whether you wish us to tender on your behalf the shares of Servotronics common stock allocated to your ESOP account, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer.

Your attention is directed to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The consideration for each share of Servotronics common stock is $47.00 net in cash, without interest and less
any applicable withholding taxes, as described in the Offer to Purchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The Offer is being made for all outstanding shares of Servotronics common stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. The Offer is being made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 18, 2025, among
Purchaser, TransDigm and Servotronics, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 28, 2025 (as amended, the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which, after the completion of the Offer and the
satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, Purchaser will be merged with and into Servotronics, without a meeting or any further action of the Servotronics stockholders in accordance with Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation
Law (the "DGCL"), and Servotronics will be the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm (such corporation, the "Surviving Corporation" and such merger, the "Merger"). At the effective time of the
Merger, each share of Servotronics common stock then outstanding (other than shares of Servotronics common stock irrevocably accepted as payment in the Offer, treasury stock of Servotronics to be cancelled or Shares held by Servotronics stockholders
properly exercising their appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL) will be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, net to the holder thereof in cash, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes, except for
Servotronics common stock then owned by Servotronics and its subsidiaries, which shares of Servotronics common stock will be canceled and will cease to exist, and no consideration will be delivered in exchange therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. The board of directors of Servotronics unanimously (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger
Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, (ii) determined that the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Offer and the Merger are fair to, advisable and in the best interests of, Servotronics and
its stockholders, (iii) directed that the Merger be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL and that the Merger be consummated as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) and
(iv) recommended that Servotronics' stockholders accept the Offer and tender their shares of Servotronics common stock to Purchaser in the Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. The Offer and the withdrawal rights expire at one minute after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on Monday,
June 30, 2025, unless extended as described in the Offer to Purchase (as extended, the "Expiration Date").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. The Offer is not subject to any financing condition. The Offer is subject to certain conditions described in
Section 15 of the Offer to Purchase.

We urge you to read the enclosed Offer to Purchase and Letter of Transmittal regarding the Offer carefully before instructing us to tender your shares of Servotronics common stock.

**The Trustees request that you provide Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the "Tabulation Agent"), with instructions as to whether you wish the Trustees to tender any or all of the shares of Servotronics common stock allocated to your ESOP account, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the enclosed Offer to Purchase.** 

If you wish to tender any or all of your Shares, please so instruct the Trustee by completing, executing, detaching and returning to the Tabulation Agent the Instruction Form on the detachable part hereof. An envelope to return your instructions to the Tabulation Agent is enclosed.

**Your prompt action is requested. The cut-off date for receipt of instructions from ESOP participants is 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on Monday, June 23, 2025 (the "ESOP Cut-Off Date") (or, if the Offer is** 

------

 **extended, on the day that is five business days prior to the Expiration Date). Your Instruction Form should be forwarded to the Tabulation Agent in ample time to permit the Trustees to submit the tender on your behalf before the expiration of the Offer. If the Tabulation Agent does not receive timely instructions from you by the ESOP Cut-Off Date, then in accordance with the terms of the ESOP, all shares of Servotronics common stock allocated to any participants' accounts as to which instructions are not received, and all unallocated shares of Servotronics common stock held by the Trustees on behalf of the ESOP, shall be tendered or not tendered by the Trustees in their discretion.** 

*The making of the Offer in jurisdictions other than the U.S. may be restricted or prohibited by law. We are not currently aware of any jurisdiction where the making of the Offer is restricted or prohibited by law. If we become aware of any such restriction or prohibition on the making of the Offer or the acceptance of the Shares, we will make a good faith effort to comply or seek to have such prohibition or restriction declared inapplicable to the Offer. If, after a good faith effort, we cannot comply, we will not make the Offer to, nor will we accept tenders from or on behalf of, the holders of Shares in that jurisdiction. In those jurisdictions where applicable laws require the Offer to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, the Offer will be deemed to be made on behalf of Purchaser (as defined below) by one or more registered brokers or dealers licensed under the laws of that jurisdiction to be designated by Purchaser.*

Re: <u>CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT</u>

Dear JJ:

In connection with your consideration of a possible transaction ("Transaction") with a to-be-disclosed publicly-traded corporation known as "**Project Rise**" (the "Company"), you have requested certain confidential and other information concerning the Company. Houlihan Lokey Capital, Inc. ("Houlihan Lokey") is the financial advisor to the Company.

You agree to treat any information concerning the Company and the Transaction, whether furnished to you by or on behalf of the Company regardless of the form in which such information is communicated or maintained, together with any and all analyses or other documents prepared by you or any of your directors, officers, managers, employees, advisors, attorneys, accountants, consultants, subcontractors, or representatives (including, without limitation, financial advisors, equity holders, prospective lenders, or prospective investors) (collectively, "Representatives") which contain or otherwise reflect such information (collectively, "Evaluation Material"), in accordance with this agreement. The term "Evaluation Material" does not include information which (a) was already in your possession prior to the time of disclosure to you by the Company or any of its Representatives, provided that such information was not furnished to you by a source known by you to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Company, or otherwise prohibited from disclosing the information to you, (b) was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by you or any of your Representatives, (c) becomes available to you on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company or any of its Representatives, provided that such source is not known by you to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Company, or otherwise prohibited from disclosing the information to you, or (d) which was or is independently developed by you without use of or reference to Evaluation Material.

The Evaluation Material will be used solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction between the Company and you, and will be kept confidential by you and your Representatives, except to the extent that disclosure (a) has been consented to in writing by the Company, or (b) is made to your Representatives who need to know such information for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction (it being understood that such Representatives shall be informed by you of the confidential nature of the Evaluation Material and shall have agreed to maintain the confidentiality of the Evaluation Material). You shall be responsible for any acts or omissions of any of your Representatives which, if they were the acts or omissions of you, would be deemed a breach of your obligations hereunder, and you agree, at your sole expense, to take all reasonable measures to restrain your Representatives from prohibited or unauthorized use of the Evaluation Material.

In the event that you or any of your Representatives are requested or required by law, regulatory authority or other applicable judicial or governmental order to disclose any Evaluation Material, you will provide the Company with prompt notice of any such request or requirement (to the extent legally permissible) so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the terms of this agreement. If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the Company waives compliance with the terms hereof, you may disclose only that portion of the Evaluation Material which is legally required to be disclosed.

------

In addition, without the prior written consent of the Company, you will not, and will direct your Representatives not to and shall be liable should they, disclose to any person (a) the identity of the Company, (b) the existence of or potential for the Transaction, (c) that any Evaluation Material has been made available to you or your Representatives, (d) that discussions are taking place concerning a Transaction, or (e) any terms or other facts with respect to the Transaction, including the status thereof.

It is understood and agreed that money damages may not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this agreement, and that the Company is entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief, without any requirement to post any bond. Such remedy shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for breach of this agreement but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity to the Company.

Neither the Company nor any of its Representatives is making and none of them shall be deemed by the transmittal of any Evaluation Material or the execution of this agreement to have made any representations or warranties as to the accuracy or completeness of the Evaluation Material. Only those representations or warranties which are made by the Company in a final definitive agreement regarding a Transaction, when, as and if executed, and subject to such limitations and restrictions as may be specified therein, will have any legal effect. No right, title, or interest in or to any Evaluation Material is transferred to you pursuant to this Agreement. The foregoing shall in no event limit any action for fraud relating to a Transaction when, as, and if a final definitive agreement is executed, and subject to such limitations and restrictions as may be specified in such final definitive agreement.

Promptly after being so requested by the Company, you will return or destroy at your cost all Evaluation Material, provided that you and your Representatives may retain copies of Evaluation Material to the extent required by: (A) applicable law, regulation or internal document retention policies, or (B) automatic data back-up systems in accordance with your or your Representatives' security and/or disaster recovery procedures in the ordinary course of business; provided further that any such retained copies of Evaluation Material shall be kept confidential in accordance with, and shall otherwise remain subject to, the provisions hereof and shall not be accessed or used for any purpose other than the purposes for which retention is hereby permitted, in each case for as long as such copies of Evaluation Material is retained (notwithstanding any prior termination hereof). Any destruction of materials shall be confirmed by you in writing. Any Evaluation Material that cannot be returned or destroyed (such as oral Evaluation Material) shall remain subject to the terms of this agreement.

This agreement binds the parties only with respect to the matters expressly set forth herein. As such, unless and until a subsequent definitive written agreement regarding a Transaction between the Company and you has been executed, (a) the Company will not be under any legal obligation of any kind whatsoever to negotiate or consummate a Transaction, and (b) you shall have no claim whatsoever against the Company or any of its Representatives arising out of or relating to any Transaction or Evaluation Material.

All inquiries and other communications are to be made directly to Houlihan Lokey or employees or representatives of the Company specified by Houlihan Lokey. Accordingly, you agree not to directly or indirectly contact or communicate with any director, officer, or other employee of the Company concerning a Transaction, or to seek any information in connection therewith from such person, without the express written consent of Houlihan Lokey.

Additionally, you agree not to solicit for employment any officer of the Company or any other employee to whom you may be introduced or with whom you otherwise had contact as a result of your consideration of a Transaction for a period of two (2) years after the date of this agreement, provided that you shall not be restricted in any general solicitation for employees (including through the use of employment agencies) not specifically directed at any such persons, and provided further that you shall not be restricted in hiring any such person who responds to any such general solicitation.

You agree that during the Standstill Period, you will not without the prior invitation in writing by the Board of Directors of the Company (a) acquire or make any proposal to acquire any securities or property of the Company; provided, that subject to your compliance with Securities Laws Obligations, you may beneficially own

------

up to 4.9% of the Company's equity securities and/or any outstanding or newly issued non-convertible debt of the Company, (b) propose to enter into any merger or business combination involving the Company or purchase a material portion of the assets of the Company, (c) make or participate in any solicitation of proxies to vote, or seek to advise or influence any person with respect to the voting of, any securities of the Company, (d) form, join, or participate in a "group" (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) with respect to any voting securities of the Company, (e) otherwise act or seek to control or influence the management, Board of Directors, or policies of the Company, (f) disclose any intention, plan, or arrangement with respect to the foregoing, or (g) take any action which might require the Company to make a public announcement regarding the possibility of a business combination or merger; provided that this subsection (g) shall not prohibit the making of any confidential proposal to the Chief Executive Officer or Board of Directors of the Company in a manner that would not require the Company to make any public announcement regarding such proposal. For purposes of this Agreement, the "Standstill Period" shall mean the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending one (1) year from the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you shall not be restricted from taking the actions contemplated by this paragraph (and for the avoidance of doubt, the Standstill Period shall terminate) from and after the date, if any, (1) that the Company announces its entry into an agreement with any one or more third parties (not affiliated with the Company) providing for (i) a merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other business combination involving the Company as a constituent party that would result in the acquisition of more than fifty percent (50%) of the Company's outstanding equity securities, (ii) the acquisition of a majority of the consolidated assets of the Company and its subsidiaries by a third party or group or (iii) the issuance by the Company of a number of equity securities that is equal to or greater than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting power of the Company's equity securities immediately prior to such issuance in connection with a business combination transaction with respect to the Company, (2) that is the second business day following the recommendation by the Company's Board of Directors in favor of a bona fide tender offer or exchange offer for more than fifty (50%) of the Company's outstanding equity securities, or (3) any third party commences a tender offer or exchange offer to acquire at least a majority of the outstanding voting power of the Company and the Company does not recommend that its security holders reject such offer within twenty (20) business days of the date that such offer is first published or sent or given. Following any events contemplated by clauses (1), (2) and (3) of the immediately preceding sentence or the Standstill Period, nothing in this Agreement shall limit your ability to engage in the activities described in this paragraph. Except as provided above, you also agree during such period not to request that the Company (or its directors, officers, employees, agents, or representatives) amend or waive any provision of this paragraph.

You hereby acknowledge that you are aware, and further agree that you will advise your Representatives, that Federal and State securities laws limit the circumstances in which any person who has material, non-public information about a company can purchase or sell securities of such a company and prohibit any such person from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities. You agree that you will not, and will cause your Representatives not to, trade in the Company's securities while in possession of material non-public information or at all unless you or your Representative, as applicable, can do so in compliance with all applicable laws and without breach of this Agreement (collectively, "Securities Laws Obligations").

This agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to applicable principles of conflicts of law to the extent that the application of the laws of another jurisdiction would be required thereby. This agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto regarding the subject matter hereof. No amendments, changes, or modifications may be made to this agreement without the express written consent of you and the Company. If any term or provision of this agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms and provisions of this agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired, or invalidated. No failure or delay by the Company in exercising any right hereunder or any partial exercise thereof shall operate as a waiver thereof or preclude any other or further exercise of any right hereunder. This agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and may be executed by facsimile, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement. In the event of litigation relating to this agreement, if a court of competent jurisdiction enters a final, non-appealable

------

judgment, then the non-prevailing party shall be responsible to pay or reimburse the prevailing party for costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) incurred by them in connection with the enforcement of this agreement.

Your obligations under this agreement shall remain in effect for a period of two (2) years from the date hereof, except as otherwise stated herein and provided that, with respect to any Evaluation Material constituting or incorporating a trade secret of the Company, the obligations under this agreement with respect to such Evaluation Material shall continue until such time as such trade secret no longer qualifies as a trade secret under all applicable laws.

 **Offering Note** <br>

<sup>1</sup> \* Estimated solely for purposes of calculating the amount of the filing fee only. The transaction valuation was calculated by adding (i) the product of (A) 2,556,502 shares of common stock, par value $0.20 per share (the "Shares") of Servotronics, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Servotronics"), issued and outstanding, and (B) the offer price of $47.00 per Share (the "Offer Price"); and (ii) the product of (A) 52,689 Shares subject to issuance pursuant to performance share units granted and outstanding and (B) the Offer Price. The foregoing share figures have been provided by Servotronics and are as of May 30, 2025, the most recent practicable date. \*\* The amount of the filing fee was calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Section 6(b) Filing Fee Rate Advisory for Fiscal Year 2025 beginning on October 1, 2024, issued August 20, 2024, by multiplying the transaction value by 0.00015310.
