LMI AEROSPACE, INC. ANNOUNCES FIVE-YEAR CONTRACT EXTENSION
WITH LOCKHEED MARTIN FOR MILITARY AIRCRAFT COMPONENTS

St. Louis, October 16, 2001 - LMI Aerospace, Inc. (NASDAQ/NMS:LMIA) has announced a five-year extension of contracts under its existing long-term purchase agreement with Lockheed Martin (LMT) Aeronautics Company, Fort Worth, Texas, through 2007. These contracts are for products sold on F-16, F-22, F-2, and C-130 aircraft and represent an estimated $34 million of revenue over the five-year period at current aircraft production rates.

In addition, Lockheed committed to extend LMI’s participation on the T-50, a new fighter trainer produced jointly by Lockheed Martin and Korea Aerospace. LMI will continue to produce the Leading Edge Wing Seal for the T-50 through 2010. This represents potential revenue of up to $20 million based on production of 1,000 aircraft.

Ronald S. Saks, president and chief executive officer of LMI said, “This extension of our existing work and the addition of the T-50 program continues our solid presence in the military aerospace market. We are working hard to grow our representation in the military and regional/business jet segments of the aerospace industry as well as non-aerospace markets. This extension of our long-term agreement and the T-50 award are positive steps in helping us achieve our goals.”

LMI Aerospace, Inc. is a leading supplier of quality components to the aerospace and technology industries. The Company operates six manufacturing facilities that fabricate, finish and integrate close tolerance aluminum and specialty alloy components for commercial, corporate, regional and military aircraft, and for laser equipment used in the semi conductor and medical industries. Its products include leading edge wing components and lens assemblies; cockpit window frame assemblies; fuselage skins and supports; passenger and cargo door frames and supports; and excimer laser components. The Company celebrated its 50th anniversary in 1998.

This press release includes forward-looking statements related to LMI Aerospace’s outlook for 2001 and beyond, which are based on current management expectations. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of LMI Aerospace, Inc. Actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements as a result, among other things, of the factors detailed from time to time in LMI Aerospace’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
