Item 1. Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered.
This Form 8-A/A amends the registration statement on Form 8-A filed on March 11, 2022 (the “Original 8-A”) by Triumph Group, Inc. (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange
Commission relating to preferred stock purchase rights under the Tax Benefits Preservation Plan, dated March 11, 2022, effective as of March 13, 2022 (the “Plan”), by and between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as rights agent. In
connection with the terms of the Plan and the previously announced Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger”), dated as of February 2, 2025, by and among the Company, Titan BW Acquisition Holdco Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Titan BW
Acquisition Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), (i) the Board of Directors of the Company exempted Parent and Merger Sub from the definition of “Acquiring Person” (as defined in the Plan),
conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger and (ii) the Company committed to terminate the Plan concurrent with or prior to the consummation of the Merger.
On March 13, 2025, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the Plan. The Amendment (i) increases the purchase price for each one-thousandth of a share of the
Company’s Series B Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, from $105.00 to $125.00, (ii) extends the Final Expiration Date (as defined in the Plan) from March 13, 2025 to March 13, 2028 (subject to other earlier termination
events, including if stockholder approval of the Amendment has not been obtained by March 13, 2026), (iii) amends the definition of Expiration Date to provide that, in addition to the existing expiration events, the Plan will expire automatically
upon the earlier effectiveness of the merger contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 2, 2025, among the Company, Titan BW Acquisition Holdco Inc. and Titan BW Acquisition Merger Sub Inc. and (iv) changes the Company’s
address for notices or demands under the Plan.
The Plan is described in and included as an exhibit to the Original 8-A, and such descriptions, as amended hereby, are incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing description
of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
