About Embraer Executive Jets
The Phenom 100 and Phenom 300 Jets
The Phenom 100 and the Phenom 300 jets are best-in-class. Premium comfort, outstanding
performance and low operating costs are key design drivers for these jets. Both aircraft will
offer pilots and passengers the comfort and style unseen in their categories. The relaxing
ambience is enhanced by the size of the generous windows and the most ample cabin in
their class. Onboard conveniences include a wardrobe or refreshment center, an aft cabin
private lavatory with toiletry cabinet, and satellite communications.

The pilot-friendly cockpit and the docile flying qualities of the two new aircraft will enable
single-pilot operation. Drawing from Embraer's design and engineering heritage, the
Phenom 100 and the Phenom 300 will be built for high utilization and availability. For
added safety and reliability both jets will offer a standard brake-by-wire system with antiskid capability.

Based upon Garmin's all-glass, fully-integrated avionics suite, the Prodigy flight deck
offers Phenom Jet operators more advantages than any other avionics suite on today's
market. The pilot-friendly cockpit features three interchangeable 12-inch displays - two
primary flight displays (PFD) and one multi-function display (MFD). The system integrates
all primary flight, navigation, communication, terrain, traffic, weather, engine
instrumentation, and crew-alerting system data and presents the composite information in
brilliant, sunlight-readable color on three high-definition displays.

The Phenom 100 will comfortably accommodate four passengers in a typical club configuration. The generous 55 cubic feet (1.56 cubic meters) total baggage capacity is big enough to store their luggage, golf bags and even skis.

It is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada's PW617F engines with 1,615 pounds of
thrust each. Its range, with four occupants onboard and maximum operating speed of Mach
0.70, will be 1,160 nautical miles (2,148 km or 1,335 miles) with NBAA IFR reserves, 35
minutes, and 100 nm alternate; or 1,320 nautical miles (2,445 km or 1,519 miles) with
NBAA VFR reserves, 45 minutes. The airplane is designed for short field takeoff
performance and is capable of flying at 41,000 feet (12,497 m). These characteristics will allow customers to fly nonstop from London (UK) to Reykjavik (Iceland), Lisbon
(Portugal), Tunis (Tunisia), Sofia (Bulgaria) or Stockholm (Sweden) at a lower cost than
competitive aircraft, including turboprops.

The Phenom 100 is priced at US$ 2.85 million in January 2005 economic conditions for
FAA certification and is expected to enter service in mid-2008.

The Phenom 300 jet will be configured to accommodate up to nine occupants. Its large
baggage capacity of 76 cubic feet (2.15 cubic meters) will conveniently transport
passengers' luggage, golf bags and skis.

It is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada's PW535E engines with 3,200 pounds of
thrust each. Its range, with six occupants onboard and maximum operating speed of Mach
0.78, will be 1,800 nautical miles (3,334 km or 2,071 miles) with NBAA IFR reserves, 35
minutes and 100 nm alternate. The airplane is also designed for short field takeoff
performance and is capable of flying at 45,000 feet (13,716 meters). These capabilities will
permit customers to fly nonstop from London (UK) to Reykjavik (Iceland), the Azores,
Cairo (Egypt), Tel Aviv (Israel) or Moscow (Russia) at a lower cost than competitive
aircraft.

The Phenom 300 is expected to enter service in mid-2009 and is priced at US$ 6.65
million, based on January 2005 economic conditions, for FAA certification.

The Legacy 600
The Legacy 600 provides premium comfort
and privacy for up to 16 passengers in three
distinct seating areas. Interior standard
features include first-class leather seats, a
plush divan, an elegant credenza, and spacious
tables for dining or meetings. The aircraft also
has a full-size galley for hot and cold meals, a
full-breadth aft lavatory, wardrobe and storage
cabinet, and an entertainment system with
DVD players and satellite
telecommunications. High Speed Data (HSD)
and Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) optional
capability allows customers to browse the
Internet, access e-mail and transfer files.
The Legacy 600
The Legacy 600 baggage compartment with 240 cubic feet (6.8 cubic meters) is one of the
largest in the industry and is easily accessible during flights for greater passenger
convenience.

The Legacy 600 cruises at a speed of up to Mach 0.80 and offers a range of 3,250 nautical
miles (6,019 km or 3,740 miles) with eight passengers and NBAA IFR reserves. This
range, bolstered by superior passenger and luggage capacity, enables our customers to fly
nonstop from New York (U.S.) to London (U.K.); from London to Dubai (United Arab
Emirates); from Moscow (Russia) to Addis Ababa (Ethiopia) at lower operating costs than
competitive aircraft with similar cabin size.
Additionally, the Legacy 600 is the largest business jet certified to operate into and out of
London City Airport, being capable of flying to Moscow and back with eight passengers.

The super midsize twin-engine business jet is based on the successful ERJ 145 regional jet
family platform that accumulates nine million flight hours on over 950 aircraft, and
counting. With a platform designed to endure an average of 2,500 hours per year, a low
operating cost and a track record of over 99 percent dispatch availability, the Legacy 600
offers luxurious comfort and delivers a heritage of high utilization and high availability.

Priced at US$ 24.7 million in 2007 economic conditions for FAA certification in a baseline
configuration, there are 76 Legacy currently operating in 18 countries.

Also available in Shuttle and Shuttle HC configurations, the Legacy is designed to provide
comfort and functionality. The Legacy Shuttle accommodates between 16 and 19
passengers in business-class comfort. The Shuttle HC version enhances owner productivity
and comfortably seats as many as 37 passengers in a superior airline-quality interior. Prices
for the Shuttle versions range from US$ 18.6 million to US$ 19.35 million (2007 economic
conditions for FAA certification, baseline configuration).

The Lineage 1000
The Lineage 1000 jet was designed with comfort and luxury as top priorities. It will be
configured to accommodate up to 19 people in a total cabin volume of 4,085 cubic feet
(115.7 cubic meters). The flexible interior offers five distinct privacy zones and two
lavatories. A third lavatory and a stand-up shower are also available as options. There is a
set of pre-defined cabin configurations to fit all travelers' needs, with plentiful room for
work, rest and meetings. Optional amenities aboard include Wi-Fi technology and Internet
access, Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) and other features.

The total baggage capacity is of 615 cubic feet (17.4 cubic meters). A large aft baggage
area, pressurized and conveniently accessible during flight, is more than twice the size of
aft baggage compartments that are accessible in flight of competitive aircraft. The highlyintegrated avionics suite Primus Epic from Honeywell reveals five LCD multifunction
control displays, cursor control device (CCD), auto-throttle, weather radar with turbulence
detection, fly-by-wire, and other cutting-edge technologies.

The Lineage 1000 is powered by two efficient, reliable and easy-to-maintain GE CF34-
10E7 engines, with 18,500 pounds of thrust each. Its range with eight passengers onboard
will be 4,200 nautical miles (7,778 km or 4,833 miles) with NBAA IFR reserves and 200
nm alternate. The airplane has a great airport performance, maximum operating speed of
Mach 0.82, and is capable of flying at 41,000 feet (12,497 m).

These characteristics will allow customers to fly nonstop from London (U.K.) to New York
(U.S.); from Moscow (Russia) to Tokyo (Japan) or Quebec (Canada); from New York to
Paris (France); from Jeddah (Saudi Arabia) to Beijing (China) or Bangkok (Thailand); from
Dubai (United Arab Emirates) to Tokyo or Johannesburg (South Africa), at a lower
operational cost and ultimate comfort.
The Lineage 1000 is priced at US$ 40.95 million (January 2006 Economic Conditions,
FAA Certification, Baseline Configuration)
Born of the severe demands of commercial aviation, the Lineage 1000 platform is designed
for quick turnaround, top performance, high utilization and low maintenance. Its reliability
is proven by hundreds of thousands of flight hours, and refined by the latest engineering.
