<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Item&nbsp;8.01 Other Events.</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On May&nbsp;4, 2009, the Board of Directors of Transcat, Inc. (&#147;Transcat&#148;) adopted an insider stock
sales plan (the &#147;Plan&#148;) which allows the officers, directors and certain key employees of Transcat
to sell shares of Transcat common stock between and amongst themselves. The Plan is intended to
provide additional liquidity for participants.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under the Plan, participants may elect to sell shares of their Transcat common stock by
providing written notice to Transcat&#146;s Chief Executive Officer (or the Chairman of the Board if the
sale is to be made by the Chief Executive Officer). Thereafter, the Chief Executive Officer
notifies the other Plan participants that a participant intends to sell shares of Transcat common
stock. The participants will have five business days to determine whether to purchase any, all or
a portion of the available shares. The purchase price for the shares will be determined by the
Chief Executive Officer (or Chairman of the Board if the sale is to be made by the Chief Executive
Officer) by calculating the average closing price per share of Transcat common stock on The Nasdaq
Stock Market, Inc. over the twenty trading days for the Transcat common stock ending on the last
trading day prior to the closing, multiplied by the number of shares to be sold.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Plan provides that the Chief Executive Officer (or Chairman of the Board if the sale is to
be made by the Chief Executive Officer) will determine, in his sole discretion, which participants
will be entitled to purchase the available shares. In determining who will be entitled to
participate in the sales or purchases under the Plan, Transcat&#146;s Chief Executive Officer (or
Chairman of the Board if the sale is to be made by the Chief Executive Officer) may limit sales, in
their reasonable judgment, due to, among things, (i)&nbsp;legal or contractual restrictions applicable
to Transcat or any participants; (ii)&nbsp;a market disruption (including without limitation, a halt or
suspension of trading in Transcat common stock imposed by a court, governmental agency or
self-regulatory organization); (iii)&nbsp;the stock ownership objectives approved by Transcat for its
officers and directors; or (iv)&nbsp;failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the Plan,
including the minimum sales requirements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each sale under the Plan is conditioned on the satisfactory completion of certain conditions,
including each participant&#146;s delivery of a representation letter in the form required by Transcat
and such other certificates, agreements or other documents as Transcat may request. The Plan is
designed to allow Transcat insiders, who have access to the same level of information, to sell
shares of Transcat common stock amongst themselves. Subject to the limitations under the Plan,
insiders will be afforded the opportunity to gradually sell shares in private transactions to other
insiders and diversify their investment portfolios.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;All shares purchased under the Plan will be deemed restricted shares and will be subject to
the resale restrictions and holding period requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the &#147;Securities Act&#148;), including, without limitation, the resale restrictions under Rule&nbsp;144 of
the Securities Act, as applicable. In addition, any sales and purchases made under the Plan will
be publicly disclosed as required by applicable securities laws.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Board of Directors may modify, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This summary of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the
Plan which will be filed as an exhibit to Transcat&#146;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended March&nbsp;28, 2009.
