São José dos Campos, September 24, 2009 – Embraer announces that it plans to offer in the
global capital markets a series of notes due 2020 (the Notes) through its wholly-owned

include the repayment of short-term debt. The notes will be senior unsecured and
unsubordinated obligations of Embraer Overseas, and Embraer will unconditionally guarantee
