Abstract: Let $LsubsetmathbbRimes{J}^1(M)$ be a spin, exact Lagrangian cobordism in the symplectization of the 1-jet space of a smooth manifold $M$. Assume that $L$ has cylindrical Legendrian ends $Lambd{a}_{p}msubset{J}^1(M)$. It is well known that the Legendrian contact homology of $Lambd{a}_{p}m$ can be defined with integer coefficients, via a signed count of pseudo-holomorphic disks in the cotangent bundle of $M$. It is also known that this count can be lifted to a mod 2 count of pseudo-holomorphic disks in the symplectization $mathbbRimes{J}^1(M)$, and that $L$ induces a morphism between the $mathbb{Z}_2$-valued DGA:s of the ends $Lambd{a}_{p}m$ in a functorial way. We prove that this hold with integer coefficients as well. The proofs are built on the technique of orienting the moduli spaces of pseudo-holomorphic disks using capping operators at the Reeb chords. We give an expression for how the DGA:s change if we change the capping operators.
