EXPLANATORY NOTE


Contemporaneously with the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (this “Post-Effective Amendment”) to its Registration Statement on Form S-8 (SEC File No. 333-180454) (the “Prior Registration Statement”), HEICO Corporation, a Florida corporation (the “Registrant”), is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), a new Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “New Registration Statement”). The Prior Registration Statement was filed with the SEC on March 29, 2012.

The New Registration Statement relates to the registration of 4,000,000 shares of stock of the Registrant, which may consist of Common Stock, Class A Common Stock or any combination thereof pursuant to the HEICO Corporation 2018 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “New Plan”). The New Plan replaces the HEICO Corporation 2012 Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Prior Plan"). The registration of 4,000,000 shares of stock includes 678,919 shares of stock that were previously registered under the Prior Registration Statement (the “Carryover Shares”) pursuant to the Prior Plan but not used. The Registrant desires to have the Carryover Shares included among the shares of stock whose offer under the New Plan is registered under the New Registration Statement. The Carryover Shares have been adjusted as necessary for all stock dividends and stock splits.

Consequently, in accordance with the principles set forth in Interpretation 89 under Section G, “Securities Act Forms” of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations of the Division of Corporation Finance of the SEC (July 1997 as supplemented) and Instruction E to Form S-8, (1) the Registrant is registering the Carryover Shares from the Prior Plan by means of the New Registration Statement, (2) the registration fee that is allocable to the Carryover Shares, $1,653.98, which the Registrant paid to the SEC in connection with the Prior Registration Statement, is carried over to the New Registration Statement, (3) the Prior Registration Statement is being amended on a post-effective basis such that, the Carryover Shares will no longer be available for the issuance of shares pursuant to new awards under the Prior Plan, and (4) upon the filing of this document, this Post-Effective Amendment will become immediately effective and the Prior Registration Statement, as amended by this Post-Effective Amendment, otherwise continues in effect as to the balance of the shares remaining available for issuance, pursuant to awards previously granted under the Prior Plan. Furthermore, pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8, the contents of the Prior Registration Statement are incorporated herein by reference, except to the extent supplemented, amended or superseded by the information set forth herein.
