Buyer and TransDigm to consummate the Transaction that Shareholder executes and delivers this Agreement.

three years prior to the date hereof conducted. 
  
 (e) “Trade Secret” means any confidential proprietary information that has inherent economic value as a result of its confidential nature and that is the subject of reasonable attempts to retain its confidentiality.

  
 2. Non-Compete. Shareholder hereby agrees, on behalf of
the Shareholder and the Shareholder’s heirs, assigns and Affiliates, that for a period of four years from the date hereof, the Shareholder will not at any time directly or indirectly, whether as a consultant, agent, independent contractor,
partner, shareholder, participant, owner, creditor, investor or otherwise (other than ownership as a passive investor of less than 2% of the voting stock of a company listed on a national stock exchange): 
  
 (a) own, manage, operate, finance, control or participate in
the ownership, management, operation, financing, control of, or be employed by, act as a consultant to, be associated with, lend the Shareholder’s name or any trade name to, any of the Shareholder’s credit to, or otherwise render services
or advice to or on behalf of, any business that competes or has the intention of using Shareholder to compete, in the Restricted Territory, with the Company’s Business; 
  
 (b) sell or solicit the sale of any product or service of any Person in existence or under development that
is the same as, substantially similar to or competes with or is intended to compete with any products or services of the Company’s Business in the Restricted Territory; 
  
 (c) whether for the Shareholder’s own account or for the account of any other person, firm, corporation
or other business organization, intentionally interfere with Buyer’s relationship with, or endeavor to entice away from Buyer, any person or entity who, during the period prior to the date hereof, is or was a customer or client of the Company
and engaged in ongoing business with the Company; and 
  
 (d) except as expressly permitted by Buyer or its successors or assigns in advance in writing, directly or indirectly solicit any employee of Buyer or its successors and assigns to leave the employ of Buyer of directly or indirectly hire
any such employee. 
  
 3. Covenant Against Disclosure.

  
 (a) From and after the date hereof,
Shareholder will hold all Trade Secrets of the Company’s Business in strict confidence and will not publish, disseminate or otherwise disclose, directly or indirectly to any person such information. 
  
 (b) From and after the date hereof, Shareholder agrees not
to (i) disclose to any Person in any manner, directly or indirectly, any Trade Secrets of the Company’s Business, 

  

 2 

 EXECUTION COPY 
  

 
whether of a technical or commercial nature, or (ii) use, or permit or assist, by acquiescence or otherwise, any Person to use, in any manner, directly
or indirectly, any such Trade Secrets, excepting only the use or disclosure of such Trade Secrets as are at the time of use or disclosure known to the public and that did not become known generally through any breach by any Person of any provision
of any agreement. 
  
 (c) Shareholder will not be
deemed to have violated the Shareholder’s obligations under Section 3(a) or 3(b) if the Shareholder is required to disclose any of the information described above pursuant to a subpoena, order of any court or governmental or administrative
body or other legal process, provided that Shareholder will provide to Buyer written notice that the Shareholder is subject to such legally required disclosure prior to making such disclosure and provides Buyer with the opportunity for it to enter
its appearance in such action and take such steps as Buyer may reasonably deem necessary to protect such information. Shareholder shall cooperate with Buyer in any such efforts to maintain the confidentiality of its information. 
  
 4. Tolling of Covenants. If it is judicially determined that
Shareholder has violated any of his obligations under this Agreement, then the period of the covenants contained in this Agreement automatically will be extended by a period of time equal in length to the period during which such violation(s)
occurred. 
  
 5. Injunctive Relief. Shareholder
acknowledges and agrees that Buyer’s remedies at law for any breach of any of Shareholder’s obligations under this Agreement would be inadequate, and agrees and consents that, in addition to any other relief available to Buyer at law or in
equity, temporary and permanent injunctive relief may be granted in a proceeding brought to enforce any provision of this Agreement without the necessity of proof of actual damage or the posting of a bond or other security. The foregoing shall not
in anyway relieve Buyer of the burden of proving that a breach by Shareholder of his obligations under this Agreement occurred. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds the time limits or geographic provisions of this Agreement to be so burdensome
as to be unenforceable, then the time and/or geographic limitations will be reduced to such extent as is necessary to enable said court to enforce the intention of the restrictive covenants contained herein. 
  
 6. Assignment. Shareholder may not assign this Agreement. Buyer may
assign this Agreement to any Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with Buyer, or acquiring substantially all of its assets. 
  
 7. Miscellaneous. 
  
 (a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of California without giving
effect to any conflict of law rules. 
  
 (b) All
notices (including other communications required or permitted) under this Agreement must be in writing and must be delivered: (i) in person; (ii) by registered, express or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested;
(iii) by a generally recognized courier or messenger service that provides written acknowledgement of receipt by the addressee; or (iv) by facsimile or other generally accepted means of electronic transmission with

 EXECUTION COPY 
  
 AMENDMENT AGREEMENT dated as of April 1, 2004 (this “Agreement”), to the Credit Agreement dated as of

the “Administrative Agent”), and as collateral agent for the Existing Lenders (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”). 
  
 A. Pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement, the Existing Lenders have extended, and have agreed to extend, credit to the
Borrower. 
  
 B. Holdings and the Borrower have requested that the
persons listed under the caption “Term Lenders” on the signature pages hereto (the “Term Lenders”) agree to make new Term Loans to the Borrower on the Restatement Date (as defined below), in an aggregate principal
amount of $294,262,500, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
  
 C. The Term Lenders are willing to make such Term Loans to the Borrower on the Restatement Date, subject to the terms and conditions and for the purposes set forth herein and in the Restated Credit Agreement.

  
 D. The Borrower and the Requisite Lenders (as defined below)
desire to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement in the form of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Restated Credit Agreement”) to, among other things, set forth the terms and
conditions under which the Term Lenders will make the Term Loans to the Borrower and to make certain other amendments thereto. 
  
 E. The Borrower, Holdings, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Collateral Agent have entered into the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement dated as of
July 22, 2003 (the “Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Reaffirming Parties guaranteed the obligations of the Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement and provided
security therefor. 
  
 F. Each Reaffirming Party expects to
realize substantial direct and indirect benefits as a result of consummation of the Transactions and each Reaffirming Party is willing to reaffirm its obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the other Security Documents (as
defined in the Existing Credit Agreement). 

 G. The amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement evidenced by the Restated Credit
Agreement are subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent to effectiveness referred to in Section 5 hereof and shall become effective as provided in Section 11 hereof. 
  
 H. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings
given them in the Restated Credit Agreement. 
  
 Accordingly, the
parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
  
 SECTION 1.
Commitments; Termination; Agreements. (a) On and as of the Restatement Date, the Commitment of each Lender shall be as set forth on Schedule 2.01 to the Restated Credit Agreement. 
  
 (b) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Restated Credit
Agreement, each Term Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make a Term Loan to the Borrower on the Restatement Date in a principal amount not to exceed its Term Loan Commitment. 
  
 (c) On the Restatement Date, the Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Term Loans (together with cash on hand) to repay all
Term Loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement, together with accrued interest thereon (the “Term Loan Repayment”). On the Restatement Date, each holder of Term Loans outstanding under the Existing Credit
Agreement (the “Existing Term Lenders”), to the extent of the Term Loan Repayment, shall cease to be a party to the Existing Credit Agreement and shall be released from all further obligations thereunder and shall have no
further rights to or interest in any of the Collateral; provided, however, that each Existing Term Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20 and 9.05 of the Existing Credit Agreement as in effect
immediately prior to the Restatement Date. 
  
 (d) On the
Restatement Date, upon the effectiveness of the Restated Credit Agreement, (i) each Revolving Loan outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan under the Restated Credit Agreement, (ii) each
Swingline Loan outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be a Swingline Loan under the Restated Credit Agreement, and (iii) each Letter of Credit outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be a
Letter of Credit under the Restated Credit Agreement. 
  
 SECTION
2. Amendment and Restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement. The Borrower and the Requisite Lenders agree that the Existing Credit Agreement (including all exhibits and schedules thereto) shall be amended and restated on the Restatement

Agreement”, “herein”, “hereinafter”, “hereto”, “hereof”, and words of similar import shall, unless the context otherwise requires, mean, from and after the replacement of the terms of the Existing Credit
Agreement by the terms of the Restated Credit Agreement, the Restated Credit Agreement.

 SECTION 3. Reaffirmation of Guarantee and Security Documents. Each Reaffirming Party, by its

 SECTION 5. Conditions to the Effectiveness of the Restated Credit Agreement. The Restated Credit Agreement shall
become effective on the date (the “Restatement Date”) on which each of the conditions in Section 4.02 of the Restated Credit Agreement is satisfied or waived. 
  
 SECTION 6. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK. 
  
 SECTION 7. No Novation. Neither this
Agreement nor the effectiveness of the Restated Credit Agreement shall extinguish the obligations for the payment of money outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement or discharge or release the Lien or priority of any Loan Document or any other
security therefor or any guarantee thereof, except as expressly provided for herein with respect to the Term Loan Repayment. Except with respect to the Term Loan Repayment, nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of
the Obligations outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement or instruments guaranteeing or securing the same, which shall remain

 in full force and effect, except as modified hereby or by instruments executed concurrently herewith. Nothing expressed
or implied in this Agreement, the Restated Credit Agreement or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby shall be construed as a release or other discharge of the Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement or the Borrower or any other Loan
Party under any Loan Document (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) from any of its obligations and liabilities thereunder. The Existing Credit Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement)
shall remain in full force and effect, until and except as modified hereby or thereby in connection herewith or therewith. This Agreement shall constitute a Loan Document for all purposes of the Existing Credit Agreement and the Restated Credit
Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 8. Notices. All notices hereunder
shall be given in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.01 of the Restated Credit Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which
shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 11 hereof. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile
transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 10. Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the
construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

Agreement. As used herein, the term “Requisite Lenders” shall mean (a) the Required Lenders (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) and (b) each Term Lender. This Agreement may not be amended nor may any
provision hereof be waived except pursuant to a writing signed by each of the parties hereto.
