Once the above-mentioned periods have expired, Embraer will transfer to Buyer the original Warranty issued by the vendors, if it still exists.


2)	Embraer, subject to the conditions and limitations hereby expressed, warrants that:

All spare parts or ground support equipment, not including Engines, APU and their Accessories, which have been manufactured by Embraer or by its subcontractors holding an Embraer part number, which will permit their particular identification and which have been sold by Embraer or its representatives will, for a period of [*] months from the date of the invoice, be free from defects of material, workmanship, manufacturing processes and defects inherent to the design of the above mentioned parts or ground support equipment.
