Item 1.01.    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On September 15,2008, Cargo Aircraft Management, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Air Transport Services Group, Inc. ("ATSG"), entered into an agreement with Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd. for the conversion of up to fourteen Boeing 767-200 package freighters to full freighter configuration. The conversion primarily consists of the installation of a standard cargo door and loading system.

The aircraft are currently being operated by ABX Air, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of ATSG, in support of DHL's U.S. operation.   The conversion of the first aircraft began in September 2008. In the event all fourteen aircraft were to be converted, it's anticipated that five would be redelivered in 2009, six in 2010 and three in 2011. The cost to convert all fourteen aircraft would be approximately $150 million.

ABX Air, Inc. also has an agreement with Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd., dated December 17, 2001, for the conversion of Boeing 767-200 series aircraft from passenger to standard freighter configuration. There are currently no aircraft in modification under this Agreement.

The Agreement contemplates the execution of a more definitive agreement sometime within the next sixty days.
