This amendment on Form 8-K/A amends and supplements the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Ameron International Corporation (“Ameron” or the “Registrant”) under Items 2.01 and 9.01 on August 7, 2006.

This Form 8-K/A also includes the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Income for the six months ended June 4, 2006 and the year ended November 30, 2005 previously included with the Form 8-K filed on August 7, 2006. No other changes have been made in this Form 8-K/A.
Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On August 1, 2006, Ameron and certain of its subsidiaries completed the previously announced sale of substantially all of the assets and certain specified liabilities of its worldwide Performance Coatings & Finishes business (the “Coatings Business”) to PPG Industries, Inc. (“PPG”) and certain of its subsidiaries, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement entered into between Ameron and PPG on June 28, 2006, and amended as of July 31, 2006 (as amended, the “Agreement”). The total consideration received by Ameron upon the closing of the transaction was $115 million in cash. In addition, the Agreement includes a post-closing purchase price adjustment, which based on Ameron’s current estimate of net assets would result in approximately $5 million of additional consideration.
The foregoing description of the Agreement and the transactions consummated pursuant thereto is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement attached as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and the copy of the press release announcing the closing of the transaction attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, each of which is incorporated by reference herein.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 — Ameron Basis of Presentation
Historical financial information for Ameron as of and for the six months ended June 4, 2006 has been derived from unaudited historical consolidated financial statements included in Ameron’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 4, 2006. Historical financial information for the year ended November 30, 2005, 2004 and 2003 has been derived from audited historical consolidated financial statements included in Ameron’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Note 2 — Pro Forma Adjustments
Pro forma adjustments represent the exclusion of the Performance Coatings & Finishes Group for the periods present. The Performance Coatings & Finishes Group was sold to PPG Industries, Inc. effective August 1, 2006.
The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are preliminary and subject to change upon completion of a more comprehensive analysis by the Company. The Company expects to complete this analysis prior to finalization of its financial statements for the quarter ended September 3, 2006.
The pro forma adjustments are as follows:
  a.   Subsequent to the close, the Company will no longer have revenues and related costs associated with the disposed business. These adjustments are recorded to eliminate the net sales, cost of sales and operating expenses which the Company believes are directly attributable to the disposed business and will not continue after the completion of the transaction.
 
  b.   The provision for income taxes has been adjusted on a pro forma basis reflecting the effective income tax rate associated with the Performance Coatings & Finishes Group.
 
  c.   To record estimated proceeds received assuming transaction took place at June 4, 2006.
 
  d.   To eliminate the assets sold to PPG.
 
  e.   To eliminate an estimate of the deferred tax assets to be realized at the close of the transaction.
 
  f.   To eliminate the property, plant and equipment, net sold to PPG, excluding the retained properties.
 
  g.   To eliminate an estimate of intangible assets relating to the disposition of the Performance Coatings & Finishes Group.
 
  h.   To eliminate the liabilities assumed by PPG and to accrue $4,200 potential pension curtailment and $1,000 estimated transaction expenses associated with the sale.
 
  i.   To eliminate an estimate of the income tax payable associated with the Performance Coatings & Finishes Group.
 
  j.   To eliminate the amount of accumulated translation adjustment to be realized at the close of the transaction.
