AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO AMENDED & RESTATED TRANSACTION AGREEMENT

     AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO AMENDED AND RESTATED TRANSACTION AGREEMENT, dated as of July 31, 2006 (the “Agreement”), by and among LJH, Ltd., a Texas limited partnership (“LJH”), Owl Creek I, L.P., Owl Creek II L.P., each a Delaware limited partnership, and Owl Creek Overseas Fund, Ltd. and Owl Creek Overseas Fund II, Ltd. and Owl Creek Socially Responsible Investment Fund, Ltd. (“OCSRIF”), each an an            exempted company organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (together, the “Owl Creek Investors,” and together with LJH, the “Investors”) and TAS Holding, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Newco”), to amend the Amended and Restated Transaction Agreement between the Investors and Newco dated April 20, 2006 (the “Transaction Agreement”) on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

     WHEREAS, on April 20, 2006 LJH acquired from Monroe Capital Advisors LLC indebtedness of TIMCO Aviation Services, Inc. (the “Company”) in the approximate amount of $18.4 million (the “Monroe Debt”) and amended the terms of the Monroe Debt to decrease the interest rate and fees payable thereunder and to waive certain existing events of default under the Monroe Debt for the benefit of the Company and advanced to the Company additional working capital in the amount of $6.0 million thereunder (the “Term Loan C”) which in turn allowed the Company to amend the terms of its indebtedness to CIT Group/Business Credit, Inc. (the “CIT Debt”) to resolve certain existing events of default and to increase the amount of funding available under that facility (the “Debt Restructure”);

     WHEREAS, Newco has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger between Newco and the Company (the “Merger”), whereby Newco would merge with and into the Company and the remaining stockholders of the Company, other than the Investors, would receive $4.00 per share in cash (the “Merger Consideration”), and a related Escrow Agreement between Newco, the Company and American Bank of Texas, as escrow agent, (the “Escrow Agreement”) pursuant to which Newco has deposited the sum of $10,006,524 received as capital contributions from the Investors into escrow in order to pay the stockholders of the Company other than TAS and the Investors the Merger Consideration;

     WHEREAS, the Investors, Newco and the Company have entered into a Conversion, Support and Release Agreement which provides that the Company will issue to the Investors, on a pro rata basis and on the terms and conditions stated therein 2,400,000 shares of Common Stock in exchange for and as payment in full of the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan C (the “Conversion Agreement”);

     WHEREAS, the Investors desire to amend the Transaction Agreement as set forth herein to reflect the understandings of the parties with respect to the Merger and related transactions and to add OCSRIF as a party to the Transaction Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the Investors and Newco agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

     2.1 Merger and Related Transactions. The Transaction Agreement is amended by deleting Section 2.2 and replacing it in its entirety with the following:

     (a) Upon the execution of the Merger Agreement between Newco and the Company, LJH and the Owl Creek Investors have funded Newco with $10,006,524, representing the product of $4.00 multiplied by the number of issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock that are not owned by the Investors plus the number of shares of Company Common Stock that are issuable upon the exercise of existing conversion rights by the holders of the Subordinated Convertible Notes and holders of warrants, options and stock grant rights identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement. Of this amount, LJH has contributed the sum of $8,057,252 (80.52%) in return for the issuance by Newco to LJH of 20,143,130 shares of Newco Common Stock and the Owl Creek Investors have contributed the sum of $1,949,272.00 (19.48%) in return for the issuance by Newco to the Owl Creek Investors of 4,873,180 shares of Newco Common Stock.

     (c) The Investors agree that Newco may, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, deposit the sum of $10,006,524 in an escrow account subject to the terms of an Escrow Agreement between Newco and the Company (the “Escrow Agreement”) in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B, to be disbursed as provided in the Escrow Agreement and the Merger Agreement. Any modification of the Escrow Agreement will be subject to the consent of each of the Investors, not to be unreasonably withheld.

     (d) On or before the date that is two business days prior to the closing contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions to closing set forth in this Agreement in Section 2.2(f) and in the Merger Agreement, the Investors will contribute all shares of Company Common Stock owned by them to Newco. LJH will contribute 15,385,812 shares of Company Common Stock to Newco in return for the issuance by Newco to LJH of 153,858,120 shares of Newco Common Stock and the Owl Creek Investors will contribute an aggregate of 3,722,399 shares of Company

Common Stock to Newco in return for the issuance by Newco to the Owl Creek Investors of 37,223,990 shares of Newco Common Stock.

The Owl Creek Investors consent and agree to such action by LJH undertaken in accordance with the Conversion Agreement. The Investors agree to contribute all of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock received upon such exchange to Newco, of which 1,932,480 (80.52%) shares of Company Common Stock will be deemed contributed to Newco by LJH in return for the issuance by Newco to LJH of 19,324,800 shares of Newco Common Stock and 467,520 (19.48%) shares of Company Common Stock will be deemed contributed to Newco by the Owl Creek Investors in return for the issuance by Newco to the Owl Creek Investors of 4,675,200 shares of Newco Common Stock. LJH is authorized to take all reasonably necessary actions on behalf of the Investors to effect the transactions described in this Subparagraph (e); provided that before taking such actions LJH will provide the Owl Creek Investors with reasonable notice of such actions and a reasonable opportunity to review and consult in taking such actions.

     (f) The closing (the “Closing”) of each issuance of Newco Common Stock described in this Section 2.2 shall take place at the offices of Bracewell & Giuliani LLP, 500 N. Akard, Suite 4000, Dallas Texas on the dates specified above or at such other place and time as the Investors may otherwise agree. At each closing, Newco will issue to each of the Investors certificates for the indicated number of shares of Newco Common Stock in such denominations as any of them may specify and each of the parties will execute and deliver such certifications, receipts and acknowledgements as any of the parties may reasonably request to evidence such actions.

     2.2 SEC Filings. The Transaction Agreement is amended by deleting Section 2.3 and replacing it in its entirety with the following:

     2.3 SEC Filings. Each of the Investors agrees to file promptly an amendment to its or their respective Schedule 13D’s with the SEC disclosing their agreement to pursue the transactions described in this Agreement and to provide each party to this Agreement with prompt notice of any development which would under applicable rules require an amendment to their respective Schedule 13D’s.

Newco and the Investors agree to make the Schedule 13E-3 Filing as promptly as practicable after execution of the Merger Agreement but in no event later than 10 Business Days after the date thereof. No filings of, or amendment or supplement to, the Schedule 13E-3 Filing will be made by Newco or the Investors without providing the Investors a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon.
