In addition, the shareholders will be invited to discuss at the Meeting the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The approval of each of Items 1 and 2 requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented and voting on the matter in person or by proxy.
The approval of Item 3, requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the shares present, in person or by proxy, and voting on the matter, provided that (i) such a majority includes at least a majority of the total votes of shareholders who are not controlling shareholders of the Company or who do not have personal interest in the nomination of Mr. Aviram Halevi as an external director, excluding personal interest that is not as a result of their relationship with the controlling shareholder (votes abstaining shall not be taken into account in counting the abovereferenced shareholder votes); or (ii) the total number of shares of the shareholders mentioned in clause (i) above that are voted against such proposal does not exceed two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company.
In the proxy card attached to the proxy statement, you will be asked to indicate whether or not you are a controlling shareholder of the Company or whether or not you have a personal interest in the nomination of Mr. Aviram Halevi as an external director in the Company excluding personal interest that is not as a result of your relationship with the controlling shareholder. If any shareholder casting a vote does not notify us whether or not they are a controlling shareholder of the Company or whether or not they have a personal interest in the approval of the nomination of Mr. Aviram Halevi as an external director, their vote, with respect to this Item, will be disqualified.
The approval of Items 4 and 5 requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented and voting on the matter in person or by proxy, provided that (i) such a majority includes at least a majority of the ordinary shares voted by shareholders who are not controlling shareholders of the Company nor are they shareholders who have a personal interest in the approval of the proposal set forth in Items 4 and 5; or (ii) the total number of shares of non-controlling shareholders and non-interested shareholders voted against the proposal in Items 4 and 5 must not represent more than two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company.

Under the Companies Law, in general, a person will be deemed to be a controlling shareholder if the person has the power to direct the activities of the company, otherwise than by reason of being a director or other office holder of the company. A shareholder will be deemed to have a personal interest if any member of such shareholder's immediate family or their spouse has a personal interest in the adoption of the relevant proposal.

Such company is a company in which the shareholder or a member of such shareholder's immediate family serves as a director or chief executive officer, has the right to appoint a director or the chief executive officer, or owns 5% or more of the outstanding shares. However, a shareholder will not be deemed to have a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal if the shareholder's interest in such proposal arises solely from ownership of TAT Technologies' shares, or to a matter that is not related to a relationship with a controlling shareholder.

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 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 2015, we paid Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel approximately \$219,000 for audit services and \$80,000 for tax-related services.

"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 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."
The Company's Articles of Association provide for a Board of Directors consisting of no less than two and no more than eleven members. Our Board of Directors is currently composed of 7 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 re-elect Mr. Ron Ben Haim, Ms. Dafna Gruber and Mr. Jan Loeb, and to elect Mr. Amos Malka and Mr. Ami Boehm, to serve as directors of the Company, 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 Ami Boehm. 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.
Under the Companies Law, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented at the Meeting, in person or by proxy, entitled to vote and voting thereon, is required to re-elect each of the nominees named above.
Set forth below is information about each nominee, including age, position(s) held with the Company, principal occupation, business history and other directorships held.

Prior to joining the Company, from 2009 until 2013, Mr. Zamir served as CEO at Mapco Express, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Delek US Holdings Inc., which owns and operates 370 convenient stores and gas stations in the southeastern region of the U.S. Prior to Mapco Express from 2006 until 2009, Mr. Zamir served as CEO of Metrolight, a provider of proprietary energy saving solutions in High Intensity Discharge (HID) lighting systems.

Pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law, any arrangement between the Company and its Chief Executive Officer relating to his or her compensation must generally be in compliance with the Company's compensation policy for executive officers and directors and requires approval of the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors and the Company's shareholders, in that order.
Our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors have approved, and recommended that the Company's shareholders approve, the terms of service and compensation of Mr. Zamir Igal as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, in accordance with Section 272(c1)(1) of the Israeli Companies Law, including but not limited to: (1) a special bonus formula for the year 2016; (2) an annual cash bonus plan for the year 2016 and thereafter; and (3) the grant of 100,000 options to purchase 100,000 of our Ordinary Shares.

Mr. Zamir will be entitled to receive a special cash bonus for the year 2016, for his services as the Company's Chief Executive Officer, as set forth in Appendix C. In addition, Mr. Zamir will be subject to an annual cash bonus plan, for his services as the Company's Chief Executive Officer for the years 2016 and thereafter (so long as he serves as the Company's Chief Executive Officer), as set forth in Appendix C.
Mr. Zamir will be granted 100,000 options to purchase 100,000 of our Ordinary Shares (the "Options"). The options are exercisable at a price per share, which is the higher of (a) 5% above the average closing price of the Company's shares in the 30 trading days preceding the date of the Board of Directors' approval of the equity grant; and (b) 5% above the share price on the date of the grant of the Options.

The options will expire on the five anniversary of the date of the grant.
In the event of a "change in control" during his term of service as Chief Executive Officer, any options unvested at such time, will vest immediately. A "change in control" means: (1) the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets; or (2) the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's Ordinary Shares; or (3) any merger or transaction in which a third party becomes the holder of the largest percentage of Ordinary Shares of the Company instead of the controlling shareholder (as defined in the Israeli Securities Law, 5728-1968) prior to the merger or transaction.
The terms of service and compensation set forth in this Item 4 are in compliance with our compensation policy for executive officers and directors.
It should be noted that this Item was approved by our Board of Directors pursuant to the recommendation of our Compensation Committee and it is subject to approval by our shareholders. Our Compensation Committee and our Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" this resolution.
It is therefore proposed that at the Meeting the shareholders adopt the following resolution:
"RESOLVED, TO APPROVE THE TERMS OF SERVICE AND COMPENSATION OF MR. ZAMIR IGAL AS THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF THE COMPANY, IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 272(C1)(1) OF THE ISRAELI COMPANIES LAW, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO: (1) A SPECIAL BONUS FORMULA FOR THE YEAR 2016; (2) AN ANNUAL CASH BONUS PLAN FOR THE YEAR 2016 AND THEREAFTER; AND (3) THE GRANT OF OPTIONS TO PURCHASE ORDINARY SHARES OF THE COMPANY, ALL AS DESCRIBED IN THE PROXY STATEMENT.".
According to Israeli law, a publicly-traded company may indemnify its directors and officers against certain actions, if the company's articles of association allow such indemnification, and with respect to indemnification given to such company's officers, directors and CEO, if the terms of such indemnification letter are approved by the company's compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders. On November 14, 2013 the shareholders of the Company resolved to amend the Articles of Association of the Company and to grant an indemnification undertaking by the Company to its Officers, Directors and to its CEO including the Directors' associated with the Controlling Shareholder.
Pursuant to the Companies Law, the terms of service of the Directors associated with the Controlling Shareholder, which include the provision of indemnification undertakings, cannot continue for more than three consecutive years unless re-approved by the compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders every three years. Our Directors' associated with the Controlling Shareholder received indemnification undertakings from us, in connection with our 2013 Shareholders Meeting. Therefore, we are proposing to approve the grant and renewal of indemnification undertakings in the form identical to the form of indemnification undertaking previously approved by our shareholders.
It should be noted that the total amount of indemnification that the Company will pay according to the Indemnification Letter (in addition to amounts received from an insurance company, if any) to all its directors and officers in aggregate, shall not exceed, at all circumstances, more than 25% the company's equity, according to the Company's latest consolidated financial statements, prior to the date that the indemnity was given.
It should be noted that this Item was approved by our Board of Directors pursuant to a recommendation of our Compensation Committee and it is subject to approval by our shareholders. Our Compensation Committee and our Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" this resolution.
It is therefore proposed that at the Meeting the shareholders adopt the following resolution:
RESOLVED, TO APPROVE THE RENEWAL AND/OR GRANT OF THE LETTERS OF INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY TO ITS CURRENT AND FUTURE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND TO ITS CEO INCLUDING THE DIRECTORS' ASSOCIATED WITH THE CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDER TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY THE LAW AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE COMPANY'S COMPENSATION POLICY AS DESCRIBED IN THE PROXY STATEMENT.".
In addition to voting on Items 1 through 5 as described above, the shareholders will be invited to discuss at the Meeting the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Management knows of no other business to be acted upon at the Meeting. However, if any other business properly comes before the Meeting, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote upon such matters in accordance with their best judgment.
Should changes be made to any Item on the agenda for the Meeting after the publication of this Proxy Statement, we will communicate the changes to our shareholders through the publication of a press release, a copy of which will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 6-K and with the Israeli Securities Authority.

The Company's Chief Executive Officer (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.
| Revenue Performance Rate | Applicable Percentage in the Annual Bonus Formula | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Less than 75% | 0% | ||
| 75%-100% (inclusive) | 18.75%-25% (respectively) | ||
| 100%-120% (inclusive) | 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% | 0% | ||
| 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:
C - 2
The CEO shall be eligible to receive a special bonus from the Company for the year 2016 for his services (the "Special Bonus"), subject to the necessary approvals and the Board of Directors' discretion. The Special Bonus shall be in the amount of up to 1.2 times the CEO Monthly Salary (i.e. up to NIS 114,000) and shall be added to the Annual Bonus for the year 2016.
The Special Bonus shall be calculated as follows:
Notwithstanding the aforesaid, if the Company's actual annual EBITDA for the year 2016 (as set forth in the audited annual financial statements approved by the Board of Directors) is less than USA\$ 5M then the CEO shall not be entitled to any Special Bonus.
C - 3
Appendix D
Re: Officers indemnification Undertaking Whereas on November 14, 2013 the General Meeting of the Company resolved to amend the Articles of Association of the Company and the issuance of indemnification undertaking by the Company to its Officers and to delete its right to exempt from liability its officers;
Whereas _________________ (the "Indemnitee") serves as an Officer/Director of the Company;
2.1.5 Reasonable legal expenses, including attorneys fees, which the Indemnitee incurred or with which he was charged by the Court, in a proceeding brought against him by the Company, in its name or by another person, or in a criminal prosecution in which he was found innocent, or in a criminal prosecution in which he was convicted of an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent;
If when and to the extent that the Indemnitee would not be permitted to be so indemnified under applicable law, the Company shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Indemnitee for all such amounts theretofore paid (unless the Indemnitee has commenced legal proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction to secure a determination that the Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable law, in which event the Indemnitee shall not be required to so reimburse the Company until a final judicial determination is made with respect thereto as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or lapsed or such matter shall have been fully and finally settled by the parties) and the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify or advance any additional amounts to the Indemnitee (unless there has been a determination by acourt or competent jurisdiction that the Indemnitee would be permitted to be so indemnified under this undertaking or such matter shall have been fully and finally settled by the parties).
No waiver of any of the provisions of this undertaking shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver. Any waiver shall be in writing and signed by the party waiving such right.
In the event of payment under this undertaking, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and shall do everything that may be necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents necessary to enable the Company effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.
The Company shall not be liable under this undertaking to make any payment in connection with any claim made against the Indemnitee to the extent the Indemnitee has otherwise actually received payment (under any insurance policy or otherwise) of the amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder. Any amounts paid to the Indemnitee under such insurance policy or otherwise after the Company has indemnified the Indemnitee for such Indemnifiable Liabilities shall be repaid to the Company promptly upon receipt by Indemnitee.
This undertaking shall be in full force and effect as of the date hereof.
Promptly after receipt by the Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Indemnitee will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this undertaking, notify the Company of the commencement hereof; but the omission so to notify the Company will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to the Indemnitee otherwise than under this undertaking. With respect to any such action, suit or proceeding as to which the Indemnitee notifies the Company of the commencement thereof and without derogating from Section 2.1:

The rights of the Indemnitee hereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights the Indemnitee may have under the Company's Articles of Association or applicable law or otherwise.
This undertaking shall bind upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company, spouses, heirs and personal and legal representatives. This undertaking shall continue in effect regardless of whether Indemnitee continues to serve as an Officer of the Company or of any other enterprise at the Company's request, provided that the claim for indemnification relates to an indemnifiable Event.
The provisions of this undertaking shall be severable in !he event that any provision hereof (including any provision within a single section, paragraph or sentence) is held fry a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable, and the remaining provisions shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
This undertaking shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Israel without regard to its conflict of law principles.
No supplement, modification, amendment, termination or cancellation of this undertaking shall be effective unless in writing and signed and agreed upon by the Company and the Indemnitee.
