     (e) At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) held on May 3, 2011, the Company’s stockholders considered and approved an increase in the number of shares available under the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”) from 3,400,000 to 6,400,000 shares, and the LTIP was amended to reflect such increase. The Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer and other named executive officers are participants under the LTIP. This amendment was previously described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A (No. 001-33160), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 22, 2011 (the “Proxy Statement”).

     In addition, as described in the Proxy Statement, upon the approval by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting of an amendment to the LTIP, per the recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) and approval of the Board, the Company amended its Amended and Restated Executive Incentive Plan (the “EIP”) to reduce the number of shares of the Company’s Class B Common stock available for awards under the EIP by 3,000,000 shares, in order to maintain the total number of shares available for awards under all of the Company’s equity compensation plans following the increase in shares available for awards under the LTIP. Taken together with the amendment to the LTIP described above, there will be no increase in the total number of shares available to be granted under the Company’s equity compensation plans.
