Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY) (“Teledyne”) and
Micropac Industries, Inc. (OTC:MPAD) (“Micropac”) jointly announced
today that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement
that provides for the merger of Micropac with a wholly-owned

agreement, Teledyne will acquire all of the issued and outstanding
common shares of Micropac for $20.00 per share payable in cash,
without interest and subject to required withholding taxes. The
all-cash transaction values Micropac at approximately $57.3
million, taking into account Micropac’s net debt as of August 24,

Directors of Teledyne and Micropac, acting upon the recommendation
of a special committee established by Micropac’s Board and
comprised of independent directors. Stockholders of Micropac
holding approximately 75% of the outstanding shares of common stock
have approved the merger agreement by written consent, and the
transaction is expected to close by the end of 2024, subject to
customary closing conditions.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking
Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements, as defined in
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, with respect
to management’s beliefs about the financial condition, results of
operations and businesses of Teledyne and Micropac in the future.
Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, are
based on the current expectations of the management of Teledyne and
Micropac and are subject to uncertainty and changes in
circumstances. The forward-looking statements contained herein may
include statements about the expected effects of Teledyne’s
proposed acquisition of Micropac, the anticipated timing and scope
of the proposed transaction and anticipated synergies related to
the proposed transaction, and other strategic options.
Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such
as “projects”, “intends”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “targets”,
“estimates”, “will” and words of similar import that convey the
uncertainty of future events or outcomes. All statements made in
this communication that are not historical in nature should be
considered forward-looking. By its nature, forward-looking
information is not a guarantee of future performance or results and
involves risks and uncertainties because it relates to events and
depends on circumstances that will occur in the future.
Actual results could differ materially from these
forward-looking statements. Many factors could change anticipated
results, including the occurrence of any event, change or other
circumstances that could give rise to the right of Teledyne or
Micropac or both to terminate the merger agreement; the outcome of
any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Teledyne or
Micropac in connection with the merger agreement; the failure to
satisfy any of the conditions to the proposed transaction on a
timely basis or at all; the inability to complete the acquisition
and integration of Micropac successfully, to retain customers and
key employees and to achieve operating synergies, including the
possibility that the anticipated benefits of the proposed
transaction are not realized when expected or at all, including as
a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the
integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of
the economy and competitive factors in the areas where Teledyne and
Micropac do business; the possibility that the proposed transaction
may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a
result of unexpected factors or events; the parties’ ability to
meet expectations regarding the timing, completion and accounting
and tax treatments of the proposed transaction; changes in relevant
tax and other laws; the inability to develop and market new
competitive products; inherent uncertainties involved in the
estimates and judgments used in the preparation of financial
statements and the providing of estimates of financial measures, in
accordance with U.S. GAAP and related standards; and operating
results of Micropac being lower than anticipated.
Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially
from those described above can be found in Teledyne’s Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and its
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, June
30 and September 29, 2024, all of which are on file with the SEC

Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended February 24,
May 25 and August 24, 2024, all of which are on file with the SEC
and in other documents Micropac files with the SEC.
All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they
are made and are based on information available at that time.
Neither Teledyne nor Micropac assumes any obligation to update
forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that
occur after the date the forward-looking statements were made or to
reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required
by federal securities laws. As forward-looking statements involve
significant risks and uncertainties, caution should be exercised
