14.23 Interpretation. Unless expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, or unless the context requires otherwise:

(b) references to any Person (including any party hereto) includes such Person’s successors and permitted assigns;

(c) if any action is to be taken by any party pursuant to this Agreement on a day that is not a Business Day, such action shall be taken on the next Business Day following such day;

(d) the terms “include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed to be following by the phrase “without limitation” unless such phrase otherwise appears;

(e) the words “hereof,” “hereby” and “herein” and words of similar meaning when used in this Agreement refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular Article, Section or provision hereof;

NEWS RELEASE

Ducommun Incorporated Announces the Completion of Strategic Sale-Leaseback Transaction with CenterPoint Properties

SANTA ANA, Calif., December 20, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Ducommun Incorporated (NYSE: DCO), a global supplier of innovative electronic and structural solutions for the aerospace and defense industry, completed a sale-leaseback transaction with an affiliate of CenterPoint Properties on December 16, 2021. The transaction involved the company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Ducommun Aerostructures, Inc., and its industrial property located on Gardena Blvd., in Carson, California (the “Property”). Under the terms of the purchase and sale agreement, the Property was sold for an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $143 million and generated approximately $110 million in net after-tax cash proceeds.

“I am very pleased about the closing of the sale-leaseback transaction of our Gardena performance center, located in Carson, California, said Stephen G. Oswald, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “Industrial properties in the southern California market are in extremely high demand right now, and the company is taking full advantage of it. The completion of this transaction will bring significant value to the company and its shareholders by monetizing a portion of our legacy CA owned real estate portfolio. This is also excellent news as we now move forward with a stronger balance sheet to drive further improvements in the company.”

A portion of the proceeds from the sale-leaseback will be used to pay down the revolving credit facility utilized to complete the acquisition of Magnetic Seal Corporation (“MagSeal”) that also became effective on December 16, 2021. The MagSeal acquisition further advances the company’s strategy of acquiring high value engineered products that offer customized, proprietary solutions with recurring aftermarket presence. The company intends to use the remaining proceeds from the sale leaseback transaction for further strategic acquisitions, debt repayment and general corporate purposes.

The Property represents approximately 307,000 square feet of industrial space, which the company intends to continue to occupy pursuant to the lease entered into as part of the transaction.
