On November 15, 2013, the stockholders of Aeroflex Holding Corp. (the “Company”) approved the Aeroflex Holding Corp. 2013 Performance Bonus Plan (the “2013 Plan”) at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The 2013 Plan will become effective on July 1, 2014. The 2013 Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”). The executive officers of the Company and such other officers and employees of the Company selected by the Committee are eligible to participate in the 2013 Plan. The maximum amount of the incentive compensation bonuses payable to any participant under the 2013 Plan in, or in respect of, any single fiscal year shall not exceed $3,000,000. All incentive compensation bonuses paid pursuant to the 2013 Plan will be paid in cash and will be based on satisfaction of any fiscal year performance goals; provided that, such goals will be set in accordance with the regulations under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Performance goals must be based on one or more of the performance criteria enumerated in the 2013 Plan. For each selected performance goal, the Committee shall provide a threshold level of performance below which no incentive compensation bonus will be paid, a maximum level of performance above which no additional incentive compensation bonus will be paid and a target level in between such other levels.

The 2013 Plan is designed to qualify any awards payable to certain named executive officers of the Company as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code. In general Section 162(m) disallows a tax deduction to the Company for any compensation paid to certain named executive officers in excess of $1,000,000 per year, unless the compensation qualifies as performance-based compensation. In general, those requirements include the establishment of objective performance goals for the payment of such compensation by a committee of the Board of Directors composed solely of two or more outside directors, stockholder approval of the material terms of such compensation prior to payment, and certification by the Committee that the performance goals for the payment of such compensation have been achieved.

This summary description of the 2013 Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2013 Plan, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

On November 15, 2013, the Company held its 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.  Of the 84,942,690 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote, 84,501,353 shares, or 99.48%, were represented at the meeting in person or by proxy, and therefore a quorum was present.  The final results for each of the matters submitted to a vote of stockholders at the Annual Meeting are as follows:
