| (1) | The acquisition of shares represents a predetermined automatic distribution from the Plan based on the terms of the Plan and does not represent an open-market purchase by the reporting person. |
| (2) | The reporting person participates in the Woodward Executive Benefit Plan (Plan). Pursuant to an election made under the Plan, each phantom stock unit (PSU) distributed under the Plan on 01/15/2019 entitled the reporting person to receive one share of Woodward, Inc. (Company) common stock, less shares not distributed to the reporting person to cover tax liabilities. See footnote 3. The reporting person received a net distribution of 539 shares of Company common stock. PSUs are accrued under the Plan and are to be settled in 100% stock on a 1-for-1 basis at the distribution date specified at the time of election. Each PSU is the economic equivalent of one share of Company common stock. The total shown also includes PSUs acquired in connection with dividend re-investments under the Plan. |
| (3) | Shares withheld to cover the tax liability incident to the issuance of shares under the Woodward Executive Benefit Plan in accordance with Rule 16b-3. |
| (4) | The information in this report regarding the number of shares held by the reporting person in the Woodward Retirement Savings Plan is based on the calculation of January 14, 2019 and includes 16.19 shares acquired under the Woodward Retirement Savings Plan since the date of the reporting person's last Form 4 with Table I reporting. |
