Item 5.02(e) Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On June 24, 2025, the shareholders of CPI Aerostructures, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the Company’s 2025 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”) at the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of shareholders. The 2025 Plan had previously been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on April 28, 2025, upon the recommendation of the Company’s Compensation and Human Resources Committee, subject to shareholder approval.

The 2025 Plan is intended to advance the Company’s interests by providing equity-based incentives to attract, retain, and motivate employees, officers, directors, and consultants. The plan authorizes the issuance of up to 800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and allows for a variety of award types, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, and other stock-based awards.

The 2025 Plan is administered by the Company’s Compensation and Human Resources Committee, which has broad authority to determine the terms of individual awards, including eligibility, size, vesting conditions, performance criteria, and other terms. Awards may generally not be transferred and are subject to forfeiture under certain conditions.

Key features of the 2025 Plan include:

A minimum one-year vesting requirement for most awards, subject to an exception for up to 5% of the shares reserved under the plan.

A prohibition on repricing or replacing underwater stock options or stock appreciation rights without shareholder approval.

A limit on equity awards of no more than 125,000 shares per calendar year to any individual participant.

An annual cap on total compensation to any non-employee director of $225,000, including a sub-limit of 50,000 shares for equity awards.

All awards are subject to the Company’s clawback policy, as well as any clawback requirements adopted pursuant to SEC Rule 10D-1 or applicable stock exchange rules.

No incentive stock options may be granted under the plan after March 26, 2035.

The Board may amend or terminate the plan at any time, subject to shareholder approval where required by law or regulation.

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2025 Plan, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
