Item 1.01		Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

     On July 20, 2010, RTI International Metals, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an amended and restated long-term procurement frame contract (the “Amended Contract”) with EADS Deutschland GmbH as Lead Buyer for the EADS group of companies, including Airbus (collectively referred to as “Airbus”), which amends and restates the procurement frame contract previously entered into in May 2006 and supplemented in September 2007. The Amended Contract provides for the Company to supply titanium mill products, fabricated parts and services to support Airbus’ titanium requirements. The term of the Amended Contract remains through 2020.

     Under the terms of the Amended Contract, the Company has been selected as a supplier for Airbus A350 seat track extrusions through 2020 and has been awarded a five-year work package for Airbus A320 flap tracks. The Amended Contract also provides Airbus flexibility with respect to previously required volumes in 2010 and 2011, and accelerates the move to a market share arrangement from 2015 to 2012, wherein the Company will receive orders for approximately 30% to 35% of Airbus’ requirements for covered mill products.

     The summary of the Amended Contract in this Current Report on Form 8-K is qualified in its entirety to the full text of the Amended Contract attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference. Further, a copy of the press release announcing the Amended Contract is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
