Stockholders

Section 1. Annual Meetings. The Annual Meeting of Stockholders shall be held at 9:00 o’clock a.m. Pacific Time on the first Wednesday of May each year, if not a legal holiday, in which case the annual meeting shall be held on the next business day following, or on such other date as shall be designated by the Board of Directors, for the purpose of electing Directors and for the transaction of such other business as may be brought before the meeting. If such annual meeting is not held, or the Directors are not elected thereat, Directors may be elected at a special meeting held for that purpose, and it shall be the duty of the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, any Executive Vice President, any Senior

Vice President, any Vice President or the Secretary, upon the demand of any stockholder entitled to vote, to call such special meeting.

Section 2. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the stockholders for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time by the Board of Directors or by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors.

Section 3. Notice of Meetings. Except as otherwise required by law, notice of meetings of stockholders, annual or special, shall be given to stockholders entitled to vote thereat by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or other person charged with that duty not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of any such meeting. Such notice may be printed, typewritten, or in handwriting, and may be given to any stockholder either personally or by sending a copy of the notice through the mail, or by telegram, charges prepaid, to his address appearing on the books of the Corporation or supplied by him to the Corporation for the purpose of notice. Except as otherwise expressly required by law, no publication of any notice of a meeting of the stockholders shall be required. Every notice of a meeting of the stockholders shall state the place, date and hour of the meeting, and in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called.

Section 4. Place of Meetings. All meetings of the stockholders shall be held at the principal office of the Corporation in the State of California or at such other place within or without the State of Delaware as the Board of Directors may from time to time designate.

Section 5. Quorum. A quorum at any meeting of the stockholders shall consist of stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of the shares of this Corporation outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, represented either in person or by proxy, except as otherwise specifically provided by law or in the Certificate of Incorporation. In the absence of a quorum, any meeting of stockholders may be adjourned from time to time by the vote of a majority of the voting stock, the holders of which are either present in person or represented by proxy thereat. The stockholders present at a meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to do business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum.

Section 6. Adjournments. When a meeting is adjourned for thirty (30) days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as in the case of the original meeting, but when a meeting is adjourned for less than thirty (30) days it is not necessary to give any notice of the time and place of the adjourned meeting or of the business to be transacted thereat other than by announcement at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed.

Section 7. Organization. The Chairman of the Board of Directors, or, in his absence, the Chief Executive Officer, or in the absence of the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Executive Vice President, a Senior Vice President or a Vice President shall call meetings of stockholders to order, and shall act as Chairman of such meetings. In the absence of the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer,

the President, the Executive Vice President, any Senior Vice President and the Vice Presidents, the stockholders shall appoint a Chairman for such meeting. The Secretary of the Corporation shall act as Secretary at all meetings of the stockholders, but in the absence of the Secretary at any meeting of the stockholders, the presiding officer may appoint any person to act as Secretary of the meeting.

Section 8. Voting

(a) Each stockholder shall, at each meeting of the stockholders, be entitled to vote in person or by proxy each share or fractional share of the stock of the Corporation having voting rights on the matter in question and which shall have been held by him and registered in his name on the books of the Corporation:

(i) on the date fixed pursuant to ARTICLE II, Section 11 of these Bylaws as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at such meeting, or

(ii) if no such record date shall have been so fixed, then (a) at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice of the meeting shall be given, or (b) if notice of the meeting shall be waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting shall be held.

(b) Shares of its own stock belonging to the Corporation shall not be entitled to vote. Persons holding in a fiduciary capacity stock of the Corporation shall be entitled to vote such stock so held. A person whose stock is pledged shall be entitled to vote such stock, unless in the transfer by the pledger on the books of the Corporation he shall have expressly empowered the pledgee to vote thereon, in which case only the pledgee, or his proxy, may represent such stock and vote thereon. Stock having voting power standing of record in the names of two or more persons, whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, tenants by the entirety or otherwise, or with respect to which two or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship, shall be voted in accordance with the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

(c) Any such voting rights may be exercised by the stockholder entitled thereto in person or by his proxy appointed by an instrument in writing, subscribed by such stockholder or by his attorney thereunto authorized and delivered to the Secretary of the meeting; provided, however, that no proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date unless said proxy shall provide for a longer period. The attendance at any meeting of a stockholder who may theretofore have given a proxy shall not have the effect of revoking the same unless he shall in writing so notify the Secretary of the meeting prior to the voting of the proxy. At any meeting of the stockholders all matters, except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws or bylaw, shall be decided by the vote of majority in voting interest of the stockholders present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereat and thereon, a quorum being present . The vote at any meeting of the stockholders on any question need not be by ballot, unless so directed by the Chairman of the meeting. On a vote by ballot

each ballot shall be signed by the stockholder voting, or by his proxy, if there be such proxy, and it shall state the number of shares voted.

Section 9. Inspectors of Election. In advance of any meeting of stockholders, the Board of Directors may appoint inspectors of election to act at such meeting or any adjournment thereof. If inspectors of election be not so appointed, the Chairman of any such meeting may make such appointment at the meeting. The number of inspectors shall be either one or three.

Section 10. Consent of Absentees. The transactions of any meeting of stockholders, either annual or special, however called and noticed, shall be as valid as though had at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice, if a quorum be present either in person or by proxy, and if, either before or after the meeting, each of the stockholders entitled to vote, not present in person or by proxy, signs a written waiver of notice. All such waivers shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting. Attendance of a person at a meeting of stockholders shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the stockholder attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

Section 11. Record Date and Closing Stock Books. The Board of Directors may fix a record date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting of stockholders, or for the determination of the stockholders entitled to receive any dividend or distribution or any allotment of rights, or to exercise rights in respect to any change, conversion or exchange of shares. The record date so fixed shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of any such meeting, nor more than sixty (60) days prior to any other action. When a record date is so fixed, only stockholders who are such of record on that date are entitled to notice of and to vote at the meeting or to receive the dividend, distribution, or allotment of rights, or to exercise the rights, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of the Corporation after the record date. The Board of Directors may close the books of the Corporation against transfers of shares during the whole or any part of a period not more than sixty (60) days prior to the date of a stockholders’ meeting, the date when the right to any dividend, distribution, or allotment of rights vests, or the effective date of any change, conversion or exchange of shares. A determination of stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of such meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

Section 12. Conduct of Meetings. The Chairman of the Board of Directors shall have complete authority to establish rules of conduct governing all meetings of stockholders. These rules may include, but shall not be limited to, rules related to attendance, questions from the audience and similar matters. Notwithstanding the above, the nomination at any meeting of stockholders of any person to serve as a Director shall not be valid unless (i) the nomination of such person has been approved by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or (ii) notice of the nomination of such person has been delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation not less than 120 days prior to the date of the meeting of stockholders.

Section 13. Business of Meetings. To be properly brought before the annual meeting of stockholders, business must be either (i) specified in the notice of annual meeting (or any supplement or amendment thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (ii) otherwise brought before the annual meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (iii) brought before the meeting in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or (iv) otherwise properly brought before the annual meeting by a stockholder. In addition to any other applicable requirements, for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder (other than in connection with the nomination of any person to serve as a Director pursuant to Article II, Section 12(ii) hereof), the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than sixty (60) days nor more than one hundred thirty-five (135) days prior to the meeting; provided, however, that in the event that less than thirty-five (35) days’ notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the annual meeting is given or made to stockholders, notice by a stockholder, to be timely, must be received no later than the close of business on the tenth (10^th) day following the day on which such notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made, whichever first occurs. A stockholder’s notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting, (ii) the name and record address of the stockholder proposing such business, (iii) the class, series and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the stockholder, and (iv) any material interest of the stockholder in such business. No business shall be conducted at the annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article II, Section 13. The officer of the Corporation presiding at an annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the annual meeting that business was not properly brought before the annual meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Article II, Section 13, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the annual meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

Director may be removed, either with or without cause, by a majority of the Directors. The Advisory Directors shall not receive any stated compensation for their services as Advisory Directors, but by resolution of the Board of Directors a fixed fee and expenses of attendance may be allowed for attendance at each meeting.

Ducommun Reports Results for the

Third Quarter Ended October 1, 2011

LaBarge Integration on Track – Record Backlog of $612 Million

LOS ANGELES, California (November 7, 2011)—Ducommun Incorporated (NYSE:DCO) today reported results for its third quarter and nine months ended October 1, 2011.

Recent Highlights

•

Net sales increased 86% for the third quarter of 2011 versus the third quarter of 2010, reflecting increased sales of $83.8 million from the LaBarge, Inc. (“LaBarge”) acquisition

•

Diluted earnings per share for the third quarter of 2011 were $0.09 and, excluding merger-related expenses, were $0.34

•

Firm backlog at the end of the third quarter 2011 was approximately $611.7 million

“We are pleased to report our first full quarter of financial results that include LaBarge under the Ducommun umbrella,” said Anthony J. Reardon, president and chief executive officer. “The integration of our operations remains on track, with the combined Ducommun LaBarge Technologies benefiting from strong demand across a diverse set of end markets. In addition, Ducommun AeroStructures saw revenue grow in the third quarter by 11% year-over-year, reflecting increases in both commercial and military sales. We expect further expansion in the quarters to come along with margin improvement driven by higher operating leverage and the impact of synergies from our acquisition.”

Sales for the third quarter of 2011 increased 86% to $185.1 million, compared to $99.4 million for the third quarter of 2010, reflecting revenue of $83.8 million from the LaBarge acquisition and 2% organic growth, primarily from increased sales of products for commercial aircraft. Net income for the third quarter was $1.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to net income

of $5.8 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, for the comparable period last year. Excluding pre-tax acquisition-related expenses (including cost of sales relating to the write-up of LaBarge inventory) of $3.9 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, net income was $3.7 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2011. During the quarter, the Company generated $3.7 million of cash flow from operations, excluding $9.7 million of acquisition-related costs.

SG&A expenses in the third quarter of 2011 increased by $10.9 million from the comparable period last year. This increase resulted from SG&A expenses of $11.3 million from the newly acquired LaBarge organization, including approximately $2.7 million of acquisition-related expenses and $1.9 million of amortization of intangibles.

Ducommun AeroStructures (DAS)

The DAS segment reported net sales for the third quarter of 2011 of $75.1 million, compared to $67.6 million in 2010, representing an increase of 11%. The higher sales were primarily the result of increased shipments of commercial aerospace and military products. Operating income for the third quarter of 2011 was $6.5 million, or 8.7% of revenue, compared to $6.7 million, or 9.9% of revenue, for the prior-year period. Operating income was negatively impacted in 2011 by a higher proportion of sales of lower margin products.

Ducommun LaBarge Technologies (DLT)

The DLT segment reported net sales for the third quarter of 2011 of $110.0 million, compared to $31.8 million in 2010. The primary reason for the substantial increase was $83.8 million in sales from the LaBarge acquisition. Operating income for the third quarter of 2011 was $7.3 million, or 6.6% of revenue, compared to $3.1 million, or 9.8% of revenue, for the prior-year period. Excluding pre-tax acquisition-related expenses (including cost of sales relating to the write-up of LaBarge inventory) of $3.6 million, DLT operating income was $10.9 million, or 9.9% of sales.

Corporate General and Administrative Expenses (CG&A)

CG&A expenses represent the portion of SG&A expenses that are not identifiable or allocated to the DAS and DLT segments. CG&A expenses for the third quarter of 2011 were $4.1 million, as compared to $3.6 million in the third quarter of 2010. Excluding acquisition-related expenses of

$0.3 million, CG&A expenses were $3.8 million, or 2.1% of sales in the third quarter of 2011, compared to 3.6% of sales in the prior-year period.

Year-to-Date Results

Sales for the first nine months of 2011 increased 28% to $392.7 million, compared to $306.6 million for the first nine months of 2010, reflecting revenue of $84.7 million from the LaBarge acquisition as well as an increase in sales of products for commercial aircraft. Net income for the first nine months of 2011 was $0.9 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to net income of $15.6 million, or $1.48 per diluted share, for the comparable period last year. Excluding pre-tax acquisition-related expenses (including cost of sales relating to the write-up of LaBarge inventory) of $15.3 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, net income was $12.1 million, or $1.13 per diluted share in the first nine months of 2011. During the first nine months of 2011, the Company used $10.8 million of cash flow from operations, excluding $18.1 million of acquisition-related costs.

SG&A expenses in the first nine months of 2011 rose by $22.8 million from the comparable period last year. This increase resulted from SG&A expenses of $11.8 million from the newly acquired LaBarge organization, along with $11.8 million of acquisition-related expenses at Corporate, partially offset by $0.8 million reduction in other expenses.

Ducommun AeroStructures (DAS)

The DAS segment reported net sales for the first nine months of 2011 of $223.9 million, compared to $206.0 million in 2010, an increase of 9%. The higher sales were primarily the result of increased shipments of commercial aerospace and military products. Operating income for the first nine months of 2011 was $22.4 million, or 10.0% of sales, compared to $23.3 million, or 11.3% of sales, in the prior-year period. Operating income was negatively impacted in 2011 by a higher proportion of sales of lower margin products.

Ducommun LaBarge Technologies (DLT)

The DLT segment reported net sales for the first nine months of 2011 of $168.8 million, compared to $100.7 million in 2010. The primary reason for the increase was $84.7 million in sales from the LaBarge acquisition. Operating income for the first nine months of 2011 was $12.1 million, or 7.2% of sales, compared to $8.9 million, or 8.9% of sales, in the prior-year period. Excluding pre-tax acquisition-related expenses (including cost of sales relating to the write-up of LaBarge inventory) of $3.6 million year-to-date, DLT operating income was $15.7 million, or 9.3% of sales.

Corporate General and Administrative Expenses (CG&A)

CG&A expenses for the first nine months of 2011 were $23.2 million compared to $10.1 million in the prior-year period. Excluding acquisition-related expenses of $11.8 million, CG&A expenses in the first nine months of 2011 were $11.4 million, or 2.9% of sales, compared to 3.3% of sales in 2010.

“We couldn’t be happier with the LaBarge acquisition and how it has bolstered our technology profile, market position, and growth outlook,” Mr. Reardon continued. “Given our solid position on key platforms and programs, and in light of our positive outlook on the commercial aerospace market, Ducommun is on sound footing to post stronger operating performance going forward. We are now able to offer more sophisticated electronic and structural assemblies to our customers – providing access to a pipeline of new, attractive opportunities. With our diversified military business and commercial markets expanding, we remain focused on increasing margins and driving cash flow to pay down debt. Ducommun is clearly aligned with its shareholders in looking to enhance financial results in 2012 and beyond.”
