EXHIBIT A

This Amendment (this Amendment) to the Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement of Hawker Beechcraft, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company), is made as of
July 9, 2009.

WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, the Company and the Shareholders party thereto are parties to the Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement, dated as of May 3, 2007 (the Shareholders Agreement).

WHEREAS, the Company and the holders of at least 65% of the Common Shares in the aggregate have agreed to amend the
Shareholders Agreement as hereinafter set forth. All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given to them in the Shareholders Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:



| | 1. | Section 6.1(b) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows:
| | -- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------

If the Company desires to exercise the Equity Call Option, it shall deliver written notice thereof (a Call Notice) to the
Management Shareholder no later than the first anniversary of the Termination Date (the Call Period), which notice shall set forth the number of and identify the Call Equity Securities of the Management Shareholder the Company desires to
repurchase, the Equity Call Purchase Price for each such Call Equity Security, and the proposed closing date of the transaction; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt if at the end of the Call Period such Management Shareholder
continues to have the right to acquire any Shares pursuant to any convertible security, option, warrant or other right to acquire Common Shares or other shares of the Company, the Call Period with respect to such Management Shareholder shall be
extended to the date that is 30 days following the expiration of such option, warrant or other right to acquire Shares or with respect to convertible securities, the date that is 30 days from date of acquisition by such Management Shareholder of
Shares of the Company.

to be performed in such state.
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 4. | This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, and such counterparts, when taken together shall constitute one and the same Amendment, valid and binding upon each of
the parties to the Shareholders Agreement.
