(b)

The Investor’s offer shall remain effective for acceptance by ABI for a period of 30 (thirty) days, as of the date of receipt of the Offer Notice, unless earlier waived by ABI (the “ABI Acceptance Period”). During the ABI Acceptance Period, ABI shall have the right to accept all, but not less than all of the Investor Offered Shares, by giving written notice to the Investor who wishes to sell its Shares. The failure by ABI to reply to the ABI Offer Notice within the ABI Acceptance Period shall be deemed as the non-exercise of its right of first refusal.

(c)

If ABI does not exercise its right of first refusal, the Investor shall have the right, exercisable not later than 90 (ninety) days following the expiration of the ABI Acceptance Period, to consummate the Transfer of the Investor Offered Shares to a third party on the same terms and conditions of the offer presented to ABI in the ABI Offer Notice. If the Investor does not consummate such Transfer within such 90 (ninety) day period, the Investor Offered Shares shall again be subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in this section 5.3.

During the Investors Acceptance Period, the Investors shall have the right to accept all, but not less than all of the ABI Offered Shares, by giving written notice to ABI. The failure by the Investors to reply to the Investors Offer Notice within the Investors Acceptance Period shall be deemed as the non-exercise of the right of first refusal by the Investors.

(c)

If the Investors do not exercise their right of first refusal, ABI shall have the right, exercisable not later than ninety (90) days following the expiration of the Investors Acceptance Period, to consummate the Transfer of the ABI Offered Shares to a third party on the same terms and conditions of the offer presented to the Investors in the Investors Offer Notice.

The Accepting Investors shall have additional 15 (fifteen) days to accept to acquire all remaining ABI Offered Shares.

ABI shall present to the Investors a notice, which shall include the identity of the acquiring third party, the proposed sale price per Share and any other terms and conditions of the intended Transfer, including a copy of the offer received by ABI, when applicable (“Tag Along Notice”).

(b)

Each of the Investors shall have the right to exercise its Tag Along Right during a period of 30 (thirty) days, as of the date of receipt of the Tag Along Notice, by giving written notice to the transferring Shareholder, being the failure of doing so interpreted as non- exercise of such right.

…

If the Company undergoes a Change of Control Event in which the Investors’ pro rata share of the Acquisition Price is lower than the Minimum Investors’ Return, each Investor will have a put option against ABI. Such put option will be exercisable within 10 (ten) days, as of the receipt by the Investors of a notice sent by ABI informing that it has received a binding offer from one or more third parties willing to acquire the control of AB through a Change of Control Event (the “Third Party Acquirer”), and will entitle the Investors to sell all their Shares to ABI, for a total amount equal to the Put Option Price. Each of the Investors shall have the right to receive from ABI its pro rata share of the total Put Option Price, in accordance with its respective equity participation in AB determined as of the date the put option is exercised. The Put Option Price shall be paid by ABI to each Investor within 5 (five) business days of receipt by ABI of the effective payment, made by the Third Party Acquirer or by AB, of the sale proceeds arising from said Change of Control Event.

(…)

7.3. ABI’s Call for Conversion.

In that case, ABI shall provide written notice to the Investors of its desire to carry out the conversion no later than ten (10) days prior to the closing of the transaction in connection with which the conversion is being required (the “ABI Conversion Notice”). The conversion will be effective immediately prior to the closing of the relevant transaction.

The Investors further agree to provide such information as may be requested by ABI to ensure compliance with all applicable laws, including securities laws. Each Party agrees to take such further actions as are necessary to cause the conversion of shares to be consummated.

7.3.1 Each Party agrees to use reasonable efforts to cause the conversion of shares to be consummated in such a way that would maximize benefits for each of the Parties.

Execution Version

ABI Conversion Notice, by which the Investors would (i) cease to be shareholders of AB; and reach the same economic results as if they had converted their Shares into shares of ABI as provided herein. In any case, no regulatory restriction applicable to the Investors, nor the failure of any of the Investors to comply with any obligation provided for in the Agreement, especially those provided for in this Section 7.3 shall prevent ABI from exercising the right set forth in this section.

9. Conversion Right. The Parties agree to include in the Agreement a new Section Eight and to accordingly renumber the other subsequent Sections. The new Section shall read as follows:

“SECTION EIGHT

RIGHT TO CONVERT INTO ABI STOCK

(i)

In case, by December 31, 2012, any of the Investors who remain as Shareholders of AB, having not converted their shares in AB to shares of ABI common stock pursuant to Section 7.1 in connection with a Change of Control of ABI, or pursuant to Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 in connection with an ABI IPO, such Investor will have the right to convert its Shares of AB into shares of ABI common stock, at the Conversion Ratio, subject to compliance by ABI and the Investors with all applicable laws (including securities laws).

(ii)

The Investors will have fifteen (15) days from the abovementioned date to provide ABI with notice of their intention to convert their Shares of AB into shares of ABI common stock.

8.2 The Parties agree that the right of the Investors to convert their Shares of AB into shares of ABI common stock, provided for in section 8.1 above, is fully conditioned and inherent to the fact that they are (i) shareholders of AB and (ii) part of this Agreement, so that this right, as well as any other rights or obligations arising out of this Agreement may not be transferred to any third party without the Parties’ prior consent. Any assignment of rights in disregard with this provision shall be rendered null and void.

10. Notices to Red Mountain. The Parties agree to amend the Section 11.6 of the Agreement to add that, if to Red Mountain, the notices to be sent pursuant to the Agreement shall be sent to the following address:

SECTION THIRTEEN

GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

13.1 Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Brazil.

13.2 Dispute Resolution.

Any dispute, controversy or claim by and among the Parties to this Agreement, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or validity hereof, shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the Câmara de Comércio Brasil-Canadá (the “Rules of Arbitration”). The decision of the arbitrators shall be final and binding upon the Parties with no further appeal, recourse or review. Until such decision, the Parties agree to keep the arbitration procedure on a confidential basis, except to the extent necessary for any interim or conservatory measures permitted under the Rules of Arbitration.

13.2.1 Arbitration Place.

The place of arbitration shall be in the City of São Paulo, State of São Paulo, Brazil, where the arbitration award shall be rendered.

13.2.2 Arbitration Language.

The language of the arbitration shall be English.

13.2.3 Judicial Measures.

Without prejudice to this section 13.2 and without limiting any other powers the arbitrators may have, the Parties remain fully entitled to request judicial measures: (a) in order to obtain preliminary and urgent measures (medidas cautelares) prior to the formation of the arbitral tribunal, and such judicial recourse shall not be interpreted as a waiver of the arbitration as set forth in this section; and (b) to enforce any arbitral decision, including the final award. For that purpose, the Parties elect the courts of the city of São Paulo, State of São Paulo, Brazil, being waived any other no matter how privileged it may be. The Parties recognize that any provisional or urgent matter granted by judicial courts shall be, necessarily, reviewed by the arbitral tribunal, which shall decide on its ratification, revision or cancellation.”

12. Language. This Amendment shall be executed in the English and Portuguese languages, provided that the English version shall prevail, including in arbitration, and excluding when in proceedings before Brazilian courts, in which the Portuguese version shall prevail.
