"Such approval is an important step towards the closing of the business combination," Embraer said in a securities filing, adding that it expects that the closing date to occur on May 9.

Shares in Eve Holding Inc are expected to begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "EVEX" on May 10. (Reporting by Peter Frontini; Editing by Sandra Maler)
