WHEREAS, the Company desires to sell, and the Investor desires to purchase American Depositary Shares (each, an “ADS” and collectively, “ADSs”) representing the Company’s common shares, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Shares”), on the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein;

WHEREAS, in connection with such sale and purchase, the Company is willing to make certain representations and warranties and to agree to observe certain covenants set forth herein for the benefit of the Investor, and the Investor will rely on such representations, warranties and covenants as a material inducement to their purchase of the Shares (as defined below); and

WHEREAS, in connection with such sale and purchase, the Investor is willing to make certain representations and warranties set forth herein for the benefit of the Company, and the Company will rely on such representations and warranties as a material inducement to its sale of the Shares.

In the event that AAC purchases ADSs from the Company pursuant to the AirAsia Share Purchase Agreement and the AirAsia Subscription Agreement (each as amended to the date of such purchase) at a price of less than $15.00 per ADS and such purchase is consummated after the Closing, then the Company shall issue additional Common Shares underlying ADSs, and shall cause the Investor to receive additional ADSs, such that the average purchase price per ADS paid by the Investor for the ADSs purchased pursuant to this Agreement and the ADSs purchased pursuant to such additional issuance shall be no greater than such reduced purchase price per ADS paid by AAC.

7. Covenants. The Company and the Investor hereby covenant and agree, for the benefit of the other parties hereto and their respective assigns, as follows:

7.1 State Securities Laws. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to (x) obtain all necessary permits and qualifications, if any, or secure an exemption therefrom, required by any state or country prior to the offer and sale of the Shares, and (y) cause such authorization, approval, permit or qualification to be effective as of the Closing.

7.2 Negative Covenants Prior to Closing. From the date of this Agreement through the Closing the Company shall not, shall cause its Subsidiaries not to:

(a) Declare, or make payment in respect of, any dividend or other distribution upon any shares of capital stock, except for dividends and distributions that are solely to the Company or a Subsidiary thereof;

7.5 Lock-Up. Upon, and subject to the Closing, the Investor, the Onex Shareholders and the Company agree that (i) the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 7.5(b) of the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “2012 Securities Purchase Agreement”), dated as of November 30, 2012, by and among the Company, the Onex Shareholders and Summit Aviation Partners LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time, shall be terminated with respect to the Onex Shareholders, and (ii) for 180 days following the Closing Date, the Investor and the Onex Shareholders will not sell or otherwise dispose of any ADSs that any of them purchased pursuant to the 2012 Securities Purchase Agreement or this Agreement (or received from the Investor or any of its Affiliates) without the prior written consent of the Company; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investor shall be permitted, without the consent of the Company, to transfer ADSs to an Affiliate thereof, including, without limitation, to the Onex Shareholders.

The Company shall promptly notify the Investor of each such amendment, waiver or release. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if the amendment, waiver or release, as applicable, is effected solely to permit a transfer not for consideration and the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this Section 7.5 to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of the transfer.

7.6 Non-Consummation of AirAsia Transactions.

(a) The Company shall notify the Investor in writing promptly, but not later than one (1) Business Day, following the termination of the AirAsia Share Purchase Agreement and the AirAsia Subscription Agreement.

(b) In the event that (x) the Closing shall have taken place and the Shares shall have been issued and sold pursuant to Section 1.1 of this Agreement but (y) the transactions contemplated to occur on the Initial Transfer Date (as defined in the AirAsia Share Purchase Agreement) shall not have been completed within 10 Business Days of the Closing, then the Company shall promptly repurchase all Shares that shall have been issued and sold to the Investor at a purchase price per Share equal to the average price per Share paid by the Investor for the Shares purchased pursuant to this Agreement.

8. Termination.

8.1 Termination of Agreement Prior to the Closing. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) by the Investor, or the Company, if the AirAsia Share Purchase Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms;;

(b) by the Investor, or the Company, if the Closing shall not have occurred by December 31, 2018; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1 shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been the cause of, or shall have resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to such date (unless such failure is waived in writing by the nonbreaching party);

(c) by the Investor, or the Company, in the event that any Governmental Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and nonappealable; or

(d) by the mutual written consent of the Investor and the Company.

- 12 -

8.2 Effect of Termination Prior to Closing. In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability on the part of either party hereto, except that nothing herein shall relieve either party from liability for any breach of any covenant or agreement in this Agreement.

9. Publicity. No written public release or written announcement concerning the purchase of Shares contemplated hereby shall be issued by any party to this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), except as such release or announcement may be required by law or the rules or regulations of any securities exchange, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, allow the other parties reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance. The provisions of this Section 9 shall not restrict the ability of a party to summarize or describe the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any prospectus or similar offering document so long as the other parties are provided a reasonable opportunity to review such disclosure in advance.

10. Miscellaneous.

10.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of New York without regard to choice of laws or conflict of laws provisions thereof that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Additionally, each party hereto irrevocably waives any defenses based on adequacy of any other remedy, whether at law or in equity, that might be asserted as a bar to the remedy of specific performance of any of the terms or provisions hereof or injunctive relief in any action brought therefor.
