 Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On August 30, 2013, the registrant, Air Industries Group, Inc. (“Air Industries Delaware”), changed its state of incorporation from Delaware to Nevada as a result of a merger with and into its recently formed wholly-owned subsidiary, Air Industries Group, a Nevada corporation (“Air Industries Nevada”) and the surviving entity, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1. The reincorporation was approved by the stockholders of the Air Industries Delaware at its 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Air Industries Nevada is deemed to be the successor issuer of Air Industries Delaware under Rule 12g-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. 
 
The reincorporation did not result in any change in the NYSE MKT listing, CUSIP number, business, management, fiscal year, accounting, location of the registrant’s principal executive offices, directors or officers, or assets or liabilities, of the registrant. In addition, the registrant’s common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “AIRI.” Stockholders are not required to exchange stock certificates for their shares of common stock in connection with the reincorporation since shares in Air Industries Nevada are deemed to represent an equal number of shares in Air Industries Delaware.
 
As of August 30, 2013, the effective date of the reincorporation, the rights of the registrant’s stockholders will be governed by Chapters 78 and 92A (concerning Mergers) of the Nevada Revised Statutes, the Articles of Incorporation of Air Industries Nevada attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and the By-Laws of Air Industries Nevada. attached hereto as Exhibit 3.4.
 
Additional information about the reincorporation and a comparison of the rights of stockholders of Air Industries Nevada and Air Industries Delaware can be found in the Air Industries Delaware Proxy Statement for the 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 18, 2013.
