São José dos Campos, October 29, 2009 – The fleet of E-Jets of the EMBRAER 170/190
family continues to attain significant numbers, the most recent being its 3 million flight-hour
mark, with outstanding schedule reliability. More than 600 aircraft have transported over 130
million passengers, supporting airlines with business models that vary from regional and
network carriers to low-cost companies.

“The air transport industry suffers from ups and downs in passenger demand resulting from
changes in the economic scenario. Having flexible and reliable airplanes like the E-Jets in their
fleets removes a couple of risks from the airline’s equation, offering more secure alternatives for
going through hard times,” said Mauro Kern, Embraer Executive Vice President, Airline Market.
The E-Jets are the most reliable commercial aircraft family up to 122 seats. They have proved
to be an effective tool for airlines to reduce operating costs by rightsizing from bigger
narrowbody aircraft or by replacing inefficient
previous-generation jets. Since they entered
service in 2004, the highly efficient E-Jets, when
compared to the narrowbodies they right-sized
and the older jets they substituted, have
contributed to the airline industry by saving over
US$ 1 billion in fuel and by reducing roughly
6 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2)
emissions into the atmosphere.

Due to their robust design, the four E-Jets – EMBRAER 170, EMBRAER 175, EMBRAER 190,
and EMBRAER 195 – have achieved an exceptionally low rate of flight cancellations arising
from technical problems: less than two flights in every 1,000. This is also the result of the
Company’s solid after-sale services, which support a diversified customer base of 53
companies in 35 countries, worldwide, as well as the dedication of mechanics and engineers.
