CPI Aerostructures, Inc. (“CPI Aero”) announced that on June 30, 2011 it entered into a lease agreement, with Heartland Boys II L.P. for the premises located at 91 Heartland Boulevard, Edgewood, New York, directly across the street from CPI Aero’s current location. The approximate 171,000 square foot building will be used as the Company’s assembly facility, principal offices and corporate headquarters. CPI Aero intends to move all of its operations presently at 60 Heartland Boulevard, Edgewood, New York to the new facility by December 31, 2011. The term of the new lease commences on July 1, 2011 and expires on April 30, 2022.

Commenting Edward J. Fred, CPI Aero’s President & CEO, stated, “Our planned move into premises that are nearly three times the size of our current location is indicative of our expectations for continued growth in orders, customers, programs and of course revenue and profits over the coming years. Since the landlord of both properties is the same, our old lease has been amended and we no longer pay rent at the 60 Heartland Boulevard location, although we have use of it through year end as well as of the the new location immediately. We were able to negotiate attractive rental terms for the new location and we are pleased that it will cause no dislocation to our employees.”
