AIR INDUSTRIES GROUP 8-K

What Happened
Air Industries Group (AIRI) announced on August 3, 2026 (8-K filed) that it entered into an amendment on July 31, 2026 to its Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (originally dated July 2, 2026) with Tenax Aerospace Acquisition, LLC and Transitory Air Sub LLC. The Amendment extends the Merger Agreement’s Outside Date — the latest date by which the Merger must close — from September 30, 2026 to November 30, 2026. AIR also issued a press release on August 3, 2026 disclosing the Amendment under Regulation FD.

Key Details

• Amendment executed: July 31, 2026; Merger Agreement originally dated July 2, 2026.
• New Outside Date (deadline to close): November 30, 2026 (was September 30, 2026).
• Parties: Air Industries Group (AIRI), Tenax Aerospace Acquisition, LLC, and Transitory Air Sub LLC (AIR subsidiary).
• The Merger Agreement continues to include customary termination rights if the Closing does not occur by the Outside Date; the Amendment is filed as Exhibit 2.1 and the press release as Exhibit 99.1.

Why It Matters
For investors, the extension provides AIR and Tenax additional time to satisfy closing conditions (including any required approvals) and complete the transaction before the new November 30, 2026 deadline. It does not guarantee the merger will close — termination rights remain if the parties fail to close by the Outside Date — so investors should monitor future SEC filings and company announcements for progress, regulatory clearances, or further amendments. The filing also includes the company’s forward-looking statements caution about risks and uncertainties related to the transaction.
