AAR Amends OEM Support Agreement with Liebherr-Aerospace

Updates expand AAR’s comprehensive repair solution for Bombardier fleet

WOOD DALE, Illinois, April 13, 2015 — AAR (NYSE: AIR) has amended a long-term general terms agreement with Liebherr-Aerospace. Under terms of the deal, Liebherr-Aerospace will provide full support of AAR’s nose-to-tail comprehensive solution on the Bombardier fleet. The services are performed by Liebherr-Aerospace Saline, Inc., and Liebherr-Aerospace Toulouse SAS, which is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). Under the existing agreement, Liebherr-Aerospace grants access to technical documentation, spare parts and technical support to AAR’s component repair centers in Garden City, New York, and Amsterdam, both of which perform repairs on Liebherr-Aerospace equipment.

The agreement strengthens AAR's position in the aviation component support business and covers products Liebherr-Aerospace designs and manufactures for Bombardier, including the integrated air management system (ATA 21, 25, 30, 36) on board the CRJ700/900/1000 regional aircraft.

"Not only does this relationship enhance AAR's ability to provide comprehensive support for the Bombardier fleet, it also allows us to provide customers with OEM quality at competitive prices, along with technical support including engineering and reliability improvements," said Frank Landrio, Senior Vice President – Strategy and OEM Development.

Alex Vlielander, President, Liebherr-Aerospace Saline, concurred on the benefits of the expanded partnership. “Successfully working with AAR on various programs over the years has resulted in strong cooperation and trust. This agreement builds on that mutual appreciation and allows each company to focus on what it does best -- its core competency.”
