EXPLANATORY NOTE

        This Amendment No. 1 is being filed for the purpose of filing Exhibits 5.4 and 5.5 to the Registration Statement (Registration No. 333-185250). No other changes or additions are being made to the Prospectus constituting Part I of the Registration Statement (not included herein) or to Part II of the Registration Statement.


PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 20.    Indemnification of Directors and Officers

        Article Fourteenth of AAR CORP.'s Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that no director of AAR CORP. shall have personal liability to AAR CORP. or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, but this provision does not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (a) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to AAR CORP. or its stockholders, (b) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (c) under section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL") or (d) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

        Reference is made to Section 145 of the DGCL, which provides for indemnification of directors and officers in certain circumstances. Section 145 empowers a Delaware corporation to indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made, parties to any threatened, pending or completed legal action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such officer, director, employee or agent acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests, and, for criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers and directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him or her against the expenses which such officer or director actually and reasonably incurred.

        Article Fifteenth of AAR CORP.'s Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides for indemnification of AAR CORP.'s officers and directors (and those serving in such capacity with another corporation at the request of AAR CORP.) to the fullest extent provided by the DGCL and other applicable laws as currently in effect and as they may be amended in the future.

        AAR CORP. has directors' and officers' liability insurance which provides, subject to certain policy limits, deductible amounts and exclusions, coverage for all persons who have been, are or may in the future be, directors or officers of AAR CORP. against amounts which such persons must pay resulting from claims made against them by reason of their being such directors or officers during the policy period for certain breaches of duty, omissions or other acts done or wrongfully attempted or alleged.

        AAR CORP. has entered into Indemnification Agreements with each of its directors and executive officers containing, among other things, provisions similar to those in AAR CORP.'s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, including provisions requiring indemnification to the full extent permitted by the DGCL and the prompt advancement of expenses under certain circumstances. In addition, the

II-1


Indemnification Agreements require AAR CORP. to maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance at specified levels, subject to certain exceptions, and, if such coverage is not maintained, to indemnify the directors and executive officers to the full extent of such coverage.

        The charters and other organizational documents of each of the Guarantor Registrants allow for indemnification of the directors and officers thereof to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law. Furthermore, as directors and officers of subsidiaries of AAR CORP., the directors and officers of each of the Guarantor Registrant's is entitled to indemnification by AAR CORP. to the same extent as directors and officers of AAR CORP. and are covered by AAR CORP.'s directors' and officers' liability insurance to the same extent as directors and officers of AAR CORP.

Item 21.    Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules

        The Exhibits filed herewith are set forth on the Exhibit Index filed as part of this registration statement.

Item 22.    Undertakings

        (a)   Each of the undersigned Registrants hereby undertakes:

II-2


        (b)   Each of the undersigned Registrants hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

        (c)   Each of the undersigned Registrants hereby undertakes:

        (d)   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of any Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the undersigned Registrants have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being

II-3


registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

        (e)   Each of the undersigned Registrants hereby undertakes:
