Item 8.01 Other Events.

On January 17, 2013, Aircastle Limited (the "Issuer"), completed its offer to exchange up to $500 million of its outstanding 6.25% Senior Notes due 2019 (the "Original Notes") for 6.25% Senior Notes due 2019 that have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "New Notes"). The exchange offer was made in order to satisfy certain obligations of the Issuer contained in a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of November 30, 2012.

The exchange offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 16, 2013. All $500 million in aggregate principal amount of the Original Notes were exchanged. The New Notes are substantially identical to the Original Notes, except that the New Notes have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and, as a result, the transfer restrictions and registration rights provisions applicable to the Original Notes do not apply to the New Notes.
