Company expands its Parts Pool Program in Eastern Europe
São José dos Campos, July 24, 2008 – Embraer signed a five-year Parts Pool Program service
contract with Montenegro Airlines, based in the Republic of Montenegro, in Eastern Europe. This special materials solution optimizes inventory management and reduces the customer’s overhead cost for replacement parts and warehousing facilities.

“We are glad to support Montenegro Airlines with our Parts Pool Program and offer them the best
material solution for securing the high-quality standards of their fleet,” said Leandro Laia,
Embraer Vice President, Customer Support and Services – Europe, Africa and the Middle East.
The contract covers all EMBRAER 195 jets operated by Montenegro. The Parts Pool Program
will provide the airline with quick spare parts replacement, a greatly reduced need for
warehousing facilities and much lower inventory management costs, while, at the same time,
increasing the ability to budget expenses.
“After having introduced our first EMBRAER 195 one month ago, we are delighted to reinforce
our relationship with Embraer by joining the Parts Pool Program,” said Zoran Durišić,
Chairman of Montenegro Airlines. “The Embraer Parts Pool Program provides our
maintenance staff with the required support to meet our target in terms of customer service.”
About Montenegro Airlines
Montenegro Airlines was founded in 1994 as a scheduled and charter carrier, carrying
passengers on domestic and international routes, plus cargo and mail flights. The airline links
Montenegro to the main European cities, such as Belgrade (Serbia), Frankfurt (Germany),
Ljubljana (Slovenia), Moscow (Russia), Nis (Serbia), Paris (France), Rome (Italy), St.
Petersburg (Russia), Vienna (Austria), and Zurich (Switzerland), and, starting this year, to new
destinations: London (U.K.) and Milan (Italy). With the introduction of new EMBRAER 195
aircraft, the airline plans to expand existing routes, in 2009, and develop new destinations, suchas Munich, Düsseldorf, and Berlin, in Germany. Based in Montenegro’s capital, Podgorica, the company has been an International Air Transport Association (IATA) member since 2000, and its number of passengers flown increased from 16,000, in 1997, to 500,000, in 2006.
