AFTER CAREFUL CONSIDERATION, OUR BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE PROPOSALS DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.
 
ITEM 1: APPROVAL OF THE REAPPOINTMENT OF KESSELMAN & KESSELMAN PWC ISRAEL, A MEMBER OF PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS INTERNATIONAL LTD., AS OUR INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS, EFFECTIVE AS OF THE APPROVAL BY THE MEETING UNTIL OUR NEXT ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS, AND DELEGATION TO THE COMPANY'S AUDIT COMMITTEE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE AUTHORITY TO DETERMINE THE ACCOUNTANTS' REMUNERATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE VOLUME AND NATURE OF THEIR SERVICES.

Under the Companies Law and the Company’s articles of association, the shareholders of the Company are authorized to appoint the Company’s independent certified public accountants. In addition, the approval by the Company’s Audit Committee of the re-appointment and remuneration of the independent certified public accountants is required under the corporate governance rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market.
 
We first appointed Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel, a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Ltd., as our independent certified public accountants in 2009. Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel has no relationship with us or any of our affiliates except as auditors.
 
At the Meeting, and in accordance with the recommendation of our Audit Committee and Board of Directors, the shareholders will be asked to approve the re-appointment of Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel as our independent registered public accountants effective as of the approval by the Meeting and until the Company's next Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. As a result of Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel’s familiarity with our operations and its reputation in the auditing field, our Audit Committee and Board of Directors believe that Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel has the necessary personnel, professional qualifications and independence to act as our independent certified public accountants.

At the Meeting, the shareholders will also be asked to delegate to our Board of Directors and our Audit Committee the authority to determine the remuneration of our independent certified public accountants according to the volume and nature of their services. With respect to fiscal year 2014, we paid Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel approximately $204,565 for audit services and $64,998 for tax-related services.
 
It is therefore proposed that at the Meeting the shareholders adopt the following resolution:
 
RESOLVED, THAT THE RE-APPOINTMENT OF KESSELMAN & KESSELMAN PWC ISRAEL, A MEMBER OF PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS INTERNATIONAL LTD., AS THE INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF THE COMPANY EFFECTIVE AS OF THE APPROVAL BY THE MEETING AND UNTIL THE COMPANY'S NEXT ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS, BE AND HEREBY IS APPROVED, AND IT IS FURTHER RESOLVED, THAT THE AUDIT COMMITTEE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS BE, AND HEREBY ARE, AUTHORIZED TO DETERMINE THE REMUNERATION OF SUCH AUDITORS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE VOLUME AND NATURE OF THEIR SERVICES.”

ITEM 2: APPROVAL OF THE RE-ELECTION OF EACH OF MR. SAMUEL VLODINGER, MR. RON BEN HAIM, MR. JAN LOEB AND MS. DAFNA GRUBER TO SERVE AS DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY, EACH TO HOLD OFFICE UNTIL OUR NEXT ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS.

Our Board of Directors is currently composed of 6 directors (prior to this Meeting), including two external director appointed in accordance with the Companies Law. Our directors, other than our external directors, are elected at each annual meeting of shareholders. All the members of our Board of Directors (except the external directors who may be re-elected pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions stipulated in the Companies Law) may be re-elected upon completion of their term of office.
 
At the Meeting, our shareholders are being asked to elect Mr. Samuel Vlodinger, Mr. Ron Ben Haim, Ms. Dafna Gruber and Mr. Jan Loeb to hold office until our next Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.
 
Under the Companies Law, the Board of Directors of a public company is required to determine the minimum number of directors with “accounting and financial expertise” who will serve on the board. Our Board of Directors determined that at least two directors must have “accounting and financial expertise” as such term is defined by regulations promulgated under the Companies Law. The Board of Directors determined that Samuel Vlodinger, Ron Ben Haim, Jan Loeb, Avi Shani and Dafna Gruber all have “accounting and financial expertise”.  Furthermore, our audit committee determined on August 20th 2013 that Ms. Dafna Gruber qualifies as an “independent” director within the meaning of this term under the Companies Law.

We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. As such, we are exempt from the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules requirement that a majority of a company’s Board of Directors must qualify as independent directors within the meaning of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. We are also exempt from the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules requirement regarding the process for the nomination of directors; instead, we follow Israeli law and practice in accordance with which directors are proposed by the Board of Directors and elected by the shareholders, unless otherwise provided in a company’s articles of association. Our articles of association provide that the directors (except the external directors) may also be appointed by a vote of a majority of directors then in office. Our practice has been that our director nominees are presented in our proxy statement for election at our annual meetings of shareholders.

Appendix B
 
TAT Technologies Ltd. ("Company") - Annual Bonus Formula
 
The CEO shall be eligible to receive from the Company each year an annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”), subject to the Company’s achievement of the revenues, gross profit and EBITDA targets established by the Board of Directors with respect to each calendar year (each, an “Applicable Year”) prior to each Applicable Year.
 
The Annual Bonus shall be based on three aggregate components: (i) a Revenue Target bonus component (ii) a Gross Profit Target bonus component and (iii) an EBITDA Target bonus component.
 
 
·
The “on target” bonus will be equal to 6 Monthly Salaries. The "on target" bonus reflects achievement of 100% of a Performance Rate as set forth in the tables below. “Monthly Salary” means the monthly fees payable to the CEO pursuant to the agreement between the CEO and the Company divided by 1.36.
 
 
·
The Annual Bonus Formula = 6 * (the applicable percentage for Revenue Target as set forth in the right column of the Revenue Target table + the applicable percentage for Gross Profit Target as set forth in the right column of the Gross Profit Target table + the applicable percentage for EBITDA Target (as set forth in the right column of the EBITDA Target table).
 
 
·
The “Revenue Target” bonus component shall be calculated based on the Revenue Performance Rate as set forth in the table below.  The “Revenue Performance Rate” shall be determined by dividing (i) the Company’s actual annual revenues for the Applicable Year (as set forth in the audited annual financial statements approved by the Board of Directors) by (ii) the target annual revenues for the Applicable Year (as approved by the Board of Directors in the annual budget for the Applicable Year and as may be adjusted by the Board during the Applicable Year to reflect the Company's operations and mergers and acquisitions activity):

25%-30% (respectively)
120%-130% (inclusive)
30%-32.5% (respectively)
Above 130%
No additional bonus
 
 
·
The “Gross Profit Target” bonus component shall be calculated based on the Gross Profit Performance Rate as set forth in the table below.  The “Gross Profit Performance Rate” shall be determined by dividing (i) the Company’s actual annual gross profit for the Applicable Year (as set forth in the audited annual financial statements approved by the Board of Directors) by (ii) the target annual gross profit for the Applicable Year (as approved by the Board of Directors in the annual budget for the Applicable Year):
 
 
 

 
 
Annual Gross Profit Performance Rate
Applicable Percentage in the Annual Bonus Formula
Less than 75%

75%-100% (inclusive)
26.25%-35% (respectively)
100%-120% (inclusive)
35%-42% (respectively)
120%-130% (inclusive)
42%-45.5% (respectively)
Above 130%
No additional bonus
 
 
·
The “EBITDA Target” bonus component shall be calculated based on the EBITDA Performance Rate as set forth in the table below.  “EBITDA” means the Company’s operating income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization as will be stated in the annual audited financial statements approved by the Board of Directors. The “EBITDA Performance Rate” shall be determined by dividing (i) the Company’s actual annual EBITDA for the Applicable Year (as set forth in the audited annual financial statements approved by the Board of Directors) by (ii) the target annual EBITDA for the Applicable Year (as approved by the Board of Directors in the annual budget for the Applicable Year):
 
Annual EBITDA Performance Rate
Applicable Percentage in the Annual Bonus Formula
Less than 75%
0%
75%-100% (inclusive)
30%-40% (respectively)
100%-120% (inclusive)
40%-48% (respectively)
120%-130% (inclusive)
48%-52% (respectively)
Above 130%
No additional bonus
 
Example: if 75% of the Revenue Target is achieved, 100% of the Gross Profit Targets is achieved and 110% of the EBITDA Target is achieved, then the CEO shall be entitled to an Annual Bonus of 6*(18.75%+35%+44%) = 5.86 Monthly Salaries.
 
 
·
All GAAP and Non- GAAP targets are on a consolidated basis.
 
 
·
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if: (A) the Company generates a net profit margin of less than 3% in the Applicable Year (as derived from the audited financial statements of the Applicable year), or (B) the sum of the applicable percentages in the rights side of the Annual Bonus Formula is less than 50%, the CEO shall not be entitled to any Annual Bonus with respect to such Applicable Year.
 
Example for (B) – if 75% of the Revenue and Gross Profit Targets are achieved and less than 75% of the EBITDA Target is achieved, then the CEO shall not be entitled to the Annual Bonus in that applicable year (i.e., 18.75%+26.25%+0% < 50%).
 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in accordance with the Company’s Compensation Policy for Officers:
 
 
1.
in no event shall the Annual Bonus for any Applicable Year exceed 7.8 Monthly Salaries; and
 
 
2.
the payment of 20% of the Annual Bonus payable to the CEO for any Applicable Year shall be deferred to the end of the year subsequent to the Applicable Year and be conditioned upon the Company achieving (i) a positive net profit in the subsequent year, and (2) the CEO has not ceased to provide services to the Company during the year in which the deferred bonus is paid due to his resignation or termination by the Company for "cause" (is defined in the Company's compensation policy).
