Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 25, 2006, Aviall, Inc. (the “Company”), certain of its subsidiaries and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, executed the First Supplemental Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”), amending the Indenture dated as of June 30, 2004 among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as successor to The Bank of New York, as Trustee (the “Indenture”), governing the Company’s 7 5/8% Senior Notes due 2011 (the “Notes”). The Supplemental Indenture was executed with an effective date of August 25, 2006 but will become operative in accordance with its terms upon the Company’s purchase of all validly tendered and not withdrawn Notes pursuant to the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated August 14, 2006 (the “Offer”). The Supplemental Indenture eliminates substantially all of the restrictive covenants in the Indenture and includes a waiver that will explicitly permit the Company to complete the merger with a subsidiary of The Boeing Company described in the Offer notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Notes or the Indenture. A copy of the Supplemental Indenture is filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
