Embraer believes it is in full compliance with its obligations under the MTA.

Embraer said that Boeing has wrongfully terminated the Master Transaction Agreement (MTA) and that it has manufactured false claims as a pretext to seek to avoid its commitments to close the transaction and pay Embraer the $4.2 billion purchase price.

Brazil-based aerospace company Embraer said that Boeing has wrongfully terminated the Master Transaction Agreement (MTA) and that it has manufactured false claims as a pretext to seek to avoid its commitments to close the transaction and pay Embraer the $4.2 billion purchase price.

“We believe Boeing has engaged in a systematic pattern of delay and repeated violations of the MTA, because of its unwillingness to complete the transaction in light of its own financial condition and 737 MAX and other business and reputational problems,” Embraer said in a statement on its website.

Embraer believes it is in full compliance with its obligations under the MTA and that it has satisfied all conditions required to be accomplished by April 24, 2020, it said.
