SAO JOSE DOS CAMPOS, Brazil, Dec. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Embraer’s Phenom 100 entry level executive jet was certified today by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). All design goals were met or even surpassed. First deliveries begin next week.

“We are thrilled to announce that the Phenom 100 is certified by the FAA, as planned, confirming all of the exceptional performance characteristics previously approved by ANAC,” said Luis Carlos Affonso, Embraer Executive Vice President, Executive Jets. “U.S. certification validates the jet’s design and its suitability for one of the most important business aviation markets.”

The FAA granted U.S. Type Certificate based upon Brazil’s National Civil Aviation Agency’s (Agencia Nacional de Aviacao Civil – ANAC) Type Certificate issued on December 9. EASA certification is expected for the second quarter of 2009.

This document may contain projections, statements and estimates regarding circumstances or events yet to take place. Those projections and estimates are based largely on current expectations, forecasts on future events and financial tendencies that affect Embraer’s businesses. Those estimates are subject to risks, uncertainties and suppositions that include, among others: general economic, political and trade conditions in Brazil and in those markets where Embraer does business; expectations on industry trends; the Company’s investment plans; its capacity to develop and deliver products on the dates previously agreed upon, and existing and future governmental regulations. The words “believe”, “may”, “is able”, “will be able”, “intend”, “continue”, “anticipate”, “expect” and other similar terms are supposed to identify potentialities. Embraer does not feel compelled to publish updates nor to revise any estimates due to new information, future events or any other facts. In view of the inherent risks and uncertainties, such estimates, events and circumstances may not take place. The actual results can therefore differ substantially from those previously published as Embraer expectations.
