B/E Aerospace Wins Contract to Supply Cabin Lighting for Next Generation Boeing 737 Program

WELLINGTON, Fla.--(Business Wire)--
B/E Aerospace, Inc. (Nasdaq:BEAV), the world's leading manufacturer of aircraft
cabin interior products and the world`s leading distributor of aerospace
fasteners and consumables, today announced that The Boeing Company has selected
B/E Aerospace as its manufacturer of cabin lighting for the next generation
Boeing 737 aircraft program. This innovative B/E Aerospace supplier furnished
equipment (SFE) system will become standard equipment on all next generation
Boeing 737 aircraft, and is part of B/E Aerospace`s $2.3 billion unbooked SFE
backlog. Program deliveries are expected to commence in late 2010, with volume
deliveries commencing in 2011.

B/E Aerospace`s digital light-emitting-diode (LED) lighting system will play a
critical role in the new Boeing "Sky Interior" for the 737. This innovative,
lightweight LED system features adjustable lighting with full spectrum color
capabilities, providing superior cabin ambiance and unprecedented lighting
control. Studies have provided conclusive evidence that cabin illumination
enhances passenger comfort.

"We are honored to have been selected by Boeing as the supplier partner of next
generation lighting for the new 737 "Sky Interior". We look forward to
continuing our long-standing and excellent relationship with Boeing as we both
develop ways to enhance aircraft performance and passenger comfort," commented
Amin J. Khoury, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of B/E Aerospace, Inc.
"This award is part of our strategic "OEM direct", or SFE, focus to
substantially increase our revenue content per aircraft. The value of the OEM
direct awards which the company has won currently totals over $2.3 billion, only
a very small portion of which is included in the company`s backlog. Our current
backlog of $2.8 billion, along with unbooked SFE awards, is in excess of $5
billion. As we deliver products from our total $5 billion plus backlog (booked
and unbooked) we expect to substantially add to our current $7.3 billion
installed base, which in turn should facilitate growth in our spares business
over time."
