Magellan Aerospace Announces Credit Agreement

Magellan Aerospace Corporation announces that it has amended and restated its credit agreement with its existing lenders.

Under the terms of the amended and restated agreement, the maximum amount available under the operating credit facility was increased by $20,000,000 to $185,000,000 with a maturity date of May 23, 2009. The facility is extendible for unlimited one-year renewal periods, subject to mutual consent of the syndicate of lenders and the Corporation, and continues to be fully guaranteed by the Chairman of the Board of the Corporation.

The amended and restated agreement eliminates all of the financial performance covenants except for a fixed charge coverage ratio. Magellan will use a portion of the additional credit facility capacity to retire the Bridge Loan for $15,000,000, due July 31, 2008.
