The following items of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended as follows:


Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction

On May 23, 2012, the Reporting Parties effected an inter-fund affiliate transfer of shares of the Common Stock of Erickson Air-Crane Incorporated (the “Issuer”).  ZM PE Fund I and ZM PE Fund II transferred the shares purchase in the Issuer’s initial public offering, in the amount of 735,000 shares and 315,000 shares, respectively, to ZM EAC LLC and received payment for such shares at a price per share equal to the IPO price.  The following table reflects the Common Stock owned by the Reporting Persons and their respective ownership percentages of the total outstanding number of shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock after giving effect to this transfer, in each case both before and after the IPO:

             After IPO

The Reporting Persons acquired the shares of Common Stock reflected in the above table, and currently hold such Common Stock, for investment purposes.  The Reporting Persons intend to be actively involved in the Issuer’s business, operations and planning going forward, and will exercise fully their rights as shareholders. Currently, Quinn Morgan and Kenneth Lau, who are officers of or otherwise associated with certain of the Reporting Persons, are members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer.

The Reporting Persons may, from time to time, depending on market conditions and other considerations, acquire additional securities, take other steps to enhance the value of their investment or dispose of some or all of the securities of the Issuer held by them, including though trades in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions with third parties or otherwise.  These potential actions could involve one or more of the events referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, including, potentially, one or more mergers, consolidations, sales or acquisitions of assets, change in control, issuances, purchases, dispositions or pledges of securities or other changes in capitalization. In addition, from time to time the Reporting Persons and their representatives and advisers may communicate with other shareholders, industry participants and other interested parties concerning the Issuer.
