FAA grants the Company its highest award for qualified executive jet service centers

São José dos Campos, April 22, 2009 – Embraer has been awarded two Diamond Certificates of
Excellence by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for its recently certified wholly
owned executive jet service centers in Mesa, Arizona, and Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

The Diamond Certificate of Excellence is the FAA’s highest award for excellence in aviation
maintenance training. Both Embraer service centers are part of a US$ 100 million investment
made by the Company to provide its Executive Jets customers with the best infrastructure and
organization in maintenance and repair.

“Embraer recognizes the need to continuously develop and expand the level of expertise and
knowledge of its employees who perform the important aircraft maintenance inspections,”
said Jacques Blondeau, Director of Embraer Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO)
Centers, Executive Jets. “This is why we give top priority to a fully trained service center
workforce, since it is what all our customers should expect of a company that provides
superior quality in its products and services.”

This important milestone highlights Embraer’s active participation in the FAA Aviation
Technician Training Program, and reassures the owners of Phenom and Legacy aircraft that
the Company is committed to meeting customer demands by providing consistent and quality
care by highly skilled aircraft technicians.

“When customers decide to join the Embraer Executive Jet family, they get more than a great
aircraft. They receive the support and services of a dedicated organization by having their
needs and expectations made a top priority,” concluded Blondeau.

« Post Aneterior - ATR launches Door-2-Door service ATR today announced the launch of its new ‘Door-2-Door’ service, a new option included in its already comprehensive range of ATR customer services. The Door-2-Door support option means that ATR takes full responsibility for the management of the airlines’ requests for spares and technical documentation, up to and including the completed hand-over delivery process. The service entails airlines having only one point of contact for the logistic management of the spare parts and services needed for their ATR fleet. It is designed to cut out the many complexities of logistics management, to decrease the administrative workload associated with transport, and at the same time, to reduce turn-around times and costs. The main resulting benefits for customers are a high level performance from a centralised administration, a considerably minimised in-house requirement to track and trace shipments, and competitive freight rates. With its new Door-2-Door service, ATR provides its customers with an optimal transport solution both in terms of cost and delivery efficiencies. “The ability to deliver spare parts on the very doorstep of where they are needed is a perfect illustration of ATR’s will to get ever closer to its customers. With the Door-2-Door service, we ease our operators’ spares management tasks; we enable them to save both time and money through our central handling of their entire delivery process”, said Jean-Pierre Cousserans, SVP of ATR Customer Services.
