The Purchaser shall, for a period of twenty (20) calendar days following receipt of the Offer Notice (the “Option Exercise Period”), have the right to purchase such Retained ADSs specified in the Offer Notice upon substantially the same terms and conditions specified therein, including the same price. Such right shall be exercisable by delivery of written notice (the “Option Exercise Notice”) to the Sellers, including a confirmation that the exercise of such right by the Purchaser is irrevocable, prior to the expiration of the Option Exercise Period. If such right is exercised, then (i) the Purchaser may designate in the Option Exercise Notice one of the Purchaser’s Affiliates or B&B Air as the Person to which all or a portion of the Purchased ADSs subject to such purchase right shall be transferred (provided that Purchaser shall guarantee all obligations of any such Affiliate designee to effectuate the purchase and Purchaser shall remain fully liable for all of its obligations hereunder) and (ii) the Purchaser and/or such designee, as the case may be, shall effect the purchase of such Retained ADSs, including payment of the purchase price, not more than five (5) Business Days after delivery of the Option Exercise Notice. If the Purchaser does not deliver an Option Exercise Notice within the Option Exercise Period, then the Sellers or their Affiliates may during the ninety (90) calendar day period immediately following the Option Exercise Period accept the offer from the Transferee and effect the sale to the Transferee at the same price and on substantially the same terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice. If the Sellers do not sell the Retained ADSs specified in the Offer Notice within such ninety (90) calendar day period, then the Sellers shall not thereafter accept any offer from a Transferee or effect any sale of any Retained ADSs to a Transferee without first offering such Retained ADSs to the Purchaser in the manner provided in this Section 6.4(a).

(b) From and after the Closing Date, for so long as the Sellers or any of their Affiliates own any Retained ADSs, if any such Seller or Affiliate desires to place a market order to sell more than 100,000 shares of Retained ADSs through a broker, market maker or on the NYSE, in a transaction that is not pre-arranged with one or more final buyers (a “Market Trade”), the Sellers shall promptly deliver to the Purchaser a written notice (a “Market Trade

Notice”) of their intention to place an order to execute such sale. The Purchaser shall, for a period of five (5) Business Days following receipt of a Market Trade Notice (the “Market Trade Exercise Period”), have the right to purchase such Retained ADSs specified in the Market Trade Notice at a price equal to the volume weighted average closing price per ADS on the NYSE for the three (3) Trading Days immediately preceding delivery of the Market Trade Exercise Notice (as defined below). Such right shall be exercisable by delivery of written notice (the “Market Trade Exercise Notice”) to the Sellers, including a confirmation that the exercise of such right by the Purchaser is irrevocable, prior to the expiration of the Market Trade Exercise Period. If such right is exercised, then (i) the Purchaser may designate in the Market Trade Exercise Notice one of the Purchaser’s Affiliates or B&B Air as the Person to which all or a portion of the Purchased ADSs subject to such purchase right shall be transferred (provided that Purchaser shall guarantee all obligations of any such Affiliate designee to effectuate the purchase and Purchaser shall remain fully liable for all of its obligations hereunder) and (ii) the Purchaser and/or such designee, as the case may be, shall effect the purchase of such Retained ADSs, including payment of the purchase price, not more than two (2) Business Days after delivery of the Market Trade Exercise Notice. If the Purchaser does not deliver a Market Trade Exercise Notice within the Market Trade Exercise Period, then the Sellers or their Affiliates may during the five (5) Business Days period immediately following the Market Trade Exercise Period place an order to execute such sale so long as such sale has not been pre-arranged with one or more final buyers. If the Sellers do not place an order to sell the Retained ADSs specified in the Market Trade Notice within such five (5) Business Days period, then the Sellers shall not thereafter place an order to execute a Market Trade for more than 100,000 shares of Retained ADSs without first offering such Retained ADSs to the Purchaser in the manner provided in this Section 6.4(b). For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that its rights pursuant to this Section 6.4(b) shall not apply if any Seller or Affiliate thereof that own any Retained ADSs desires to place an order or multiple orders to execute Market Trades, in each case to sell less than 100,000 shares of Retained ADSs per each sale, so long as such sale or sales have not been pre-arranged with one or more final buyers.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that (i) nothing in this Section 6.4 shall restrict the Sellers’ or any of their Affiliate’s from exercising their rights with respect to any of the Retained ADSs under the Registration Rights Agreement (including, without limitation, (1) registering the Retained ADSs pursuant to B&B Air’s existing shelf registration statement or (2) including any of the Retained ADSs in a registered offering under the Securities Act by B&B Air) (provided that if, following the exercise of such rights, the Sellers or any of their Affiliates continue to own any Retained ADSs, such Retained ADSs shall be subject to the provisions in Section 6.4(a) and 6.4(b)), (ii) nothing in this Section 6.4 shall restrict any sale, assignment, disposition or transfer by any Seller of ownership of any of the Retained ADSs or any interest in or right to acquire any of the Retained ADSs to any of its Affiliates, (iii) nothing in this Section 6.4 shall restrict any Seller from pledging, hypothecating, encumbering or attempting to create or grant a security interest in any Retained ADSs or interest therein or portion thereof, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, and (iv) no Seller or Affiliate thereof shall Transfer any of the Retained ADSs or any interest in or right to acquire any of the Retained ADSs except (x) as permitted in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, (y) in a transaction subject to Section 6.4(a) or (b) or (z) pursuant to a Market Trade to sell less than 100,000 shares of Retained ADSs. For purposes of this Section 6.4(c), a “Transfer” means any sale, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, encumbrance, disposition, transfer or attempt

to create or grant a security interest in any Retained ADSs or interest therein or portion thereof, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise. If any Seller or Affiliate thereof shall Transfer any of the Retained ADSs or any interest in or right to acquire any of the Retained ADSs to any of its Affiliates pursuant to clause (i) above, such Affiliate shall agree to be bound by the terms, conditions and obligations of this Agreement as a precondition to the Transfer and such Retained ADSs shall continue to be subject to the provisions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement.

(d) The parties acknowledge that the Purchaser and its Affiliates may be in possession or after the date hereof may come into possession, and the Sellers are proceeding on the assumption that the Purchaser and its Affiliates are in possession or after the date hereof (including during any Option Exercise Period or Market Trade Exercise Period) may come into possession, of non-public information (the “Non-Public Information”) concerning B&B Air’s business, operations, pending transactions, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, which may constitute material information with respect to the foregoing. The Sellers agree that neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates has an obligation to disclose to the Sellers the Non-Public Information and that neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates has any duty to update any information that it may have provided to the Sellers. The Sellers have performed their own due diligence and business investigations with respect to B&B Air and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Sellers confirm that B&B Air has made available to the Sellers and their representatives the opportunity to ask questions of the directors and officers of B&B Air regarding its business and financial condition, and the Sellers believe that they have received all the information they considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to participate in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
