ARTICLE II

CONVERSION OF GENESIS SECURITIES; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

2.1 Effect on Share Capital. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Amalgamation and without any action on the part of the holder of any common shares in Genesis, each having a par value of $0.001 (each, a “Genesis Common Share”), which Genesis Common Shares have been issued in the form of American Depositary Shares (each, an “ADS”), with each ADS representing one Genesis Common Share and either evidenced by physical certificated American Depositary Receipts (each, an “ADR” and each such certificate shall hereinafter be referred to as a “Genesis Certificate”) or issued in uncertificated form through book-entry or other registration system:

(a) Conversion of Genesis Common Shares. Each Genesis Common Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares) shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive one (1) (the “Exchange Ratio”) ordinary share in AerCap, each having a par value of €0.01 (the “Amalgamation Consideration”),

subject in the case of Genesis Restricted Shares, to Section 2.3(b). Each ordinary share in AerCap, having a par value of €0.01 per share, hereinafter is referred to as an “AerCap Common Share.” Upon such conversion, each holder of Genesis Common Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such shares except the right to receive the Amalgamation Consideration. The Amalgamation Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into AerCap Common Shares or Genesis Common Shares), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to AerCap Common Shares or Genesis Common Shares having a record date on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

(b) Cancellation of AerCap-Owned Securities. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all Genesis Common Shares that are owned by AerCap or by any wholly-owned subsidiary of AerCap immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Amalgamation, and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, automatically be cancelled and retired without any conversion thereof and shall cease to exist, and no payment shall be made in respect thereof.

(c) Shares of Dissenting Shareholders. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any issued and outstanding Genesis Common Shares held by a person who did not vote in favor of the Amalgamation and who complies with all the provisions of the Companies Act concerning the right of holders of Genesis Common Shares to require appraisal of their Genesis Common Shares pursuant to Bermuda Law (any such shareholder, a “Dissenting Shareholder,” and such Genesis Common Shares, “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Amalgamation Consideration as described in Section 2.1(a), but shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the fair value thereof, as appraised by the Supreme Court of Bermuda under Section 106 of the Companies Act. In the event that a Dissenting Shareholder fails to perfect, effectively withdraws or otherwise waives any right to appraisal, its Genesis Common Shares shall be cancelled and converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Amalgamation Consideration for each such Dissenting Share. Genesis shall give AerCap (i) prompt notice of (A) any written demands for appraisal of Dissenting Shares or withdrawals of such demands received by Genesis and (B) to the extent that Genesis has actual knowledge, any applications to the Supreme Court of Bermuda for appraisal of the fair value of the Dissenting Shares, and (ii) the opportunity to participate with Genesis in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any demands for appraisal under the Companies Act. Neither Genesis nor AerCap shall, without the prior written consent of the other party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle, offer to settle or otherwise negotiate, any such demands.

2.2 Exchange Procedures.

(a) Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Genesis shall designate an exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the purpose of exchanging ADSs outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time for the Amalgamation Consideration. Prior to or at the Effective Time, AerCap shall take all actions reasonably necessary (including proper registration of the AerCap Common Shares to be issued in connection with the Amalgamation in accordance with Netherlands Law) to facilitate the exchange by the Exchange Agent of the ADSs for

AerCap Common Shares in connection with the Amalgamation, and deposit or cause to be deposited any dividends or distributions to which the shareholders of Genesis may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(c). Such Amalgamation Consideration to be exchanged by the Exchange Agent for ADSs and dividends or distributions, if any, so deposited are hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund.” No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of ADSs on cash amounts, if any, payable upon the surrender of such shares pursuant to this Section 2.2.

(b) Exchange Procedures. As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, AerCap or the Amalgamated Company shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each ADS holder, (i) an ADS letter of transmittal (which shall be in such form and have such other provisions as the parties may reasonably specify prior to the Closing Date) and (ii) where applicable, instructions for use in effecting the surrender of ADSs in exchange for the Amalgamation Consideration. After the Effective Time, upon surrender of the ADSs previously held by an ADS holder in accordance with this Section 2.2, together with such ADS letter of transmittal duly executed (or, in the case of persons participating in The Depositary Trust Company (“DTC”), in accordance with DTC’s procedures), and such other documents as the Exchange Agent may reasonably require, a holder of ADSs shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate or book-entry representing that number of whole AerCap Common Shares, and any ADS surrendered in respect thereof shall forthwith be marked as cancelled. In the event of a surrender of ADSs that is not registered in the applicable records of the Depositary, a certificate or book-entry representing the proper number of AerCap Common Shares may be issued to a transferee if the ADS is presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid.

(c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares and ADSs. No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to AerCap Common Shares with a record date on or after the Effective Time shall be paid to any shareholder of Genesis holding any unsurrendered ADSs with respect to the AerCap Common Shares represented thereby, until such shareholder shall surrender such ADSs in accordance with the procedures set forth in this ARTICLE II. Following the surrender of any such ADSs in accordance with the procedures set forth in this ARTICLE II, such shareholder shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the consideration set forth in Section 2.1(a), without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender, the amount of any dividends or other distributions with a record date on or after the Effective Time theretofore paid (but withheld pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence) with respect to such whole AerCap Common Shares which a shareholder of Genesis holding Genesis Common Shares is entitled to receive hereunder, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date subsequent to surrender payable with respect to such whole AerCap Common Shares which such shareholder is entitled to receive hereunder.

(d) No Further Rights in Genesis Common Shares. All Amalgamation Consideration paid or issued upon the surrender of title to ADSs in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE II (including any cash paid pursuant to this ARTICLE II) shall be deemed to have been issued (and paid) in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shareholders of Genesis, in their capacity as shareholders of Genesis prior to the Effective Time. There shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Amalgamated Company of the ADSs

which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, ADSs are presented to AerCap or to the Amalgamated Company or to the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be marked as cancelled and exchanged in accordance with this ARTICLE II, except as otherwise required by Law.

(e) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Genesis Certificates. In the event any Genesis Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, AerCap and Genesis shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Depositary to take such actions as are necessary or appropriate pursuant to the terms of Section 2.8 of the Deposit Agreement (whether the agreement is still in force or not) in respect of such lost, stolen or destroyed Genesis Certificates.

(f) Termination of Exchange Fund. Unless a longer period is prescribed by applicable Law or AerCap’s agreement with the Exchange Agent, any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the shareholders of Genesis for twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to AerCap, upon demand, and any shareholders of Genesis who have not theretofore complied with this ARTICLE II shall thereafter look only to AerCap for payment of their claim for the Amalgamation Consideration and any dividends or distributions with respect to AerCap Common Shares.

(g) No Liability. To the extent allowed under applicable Law, any Amalgamation Consideration and any dividends or distributions with respect to AerCap Common Shares comprising the Amalgamation Consideration that remain undistributed to the shareholders of Genesis shall be delivered to and become the property of AerCap on the day immediately prior to the day that such property is required to be delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. None of AerCap, Amalgamation Sub, the Amalgamated Company or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any shareholder of Genesis for any such property delivered to AerCap or to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(h) Withholding. The Exchange Agent, AerCap and the Amalgamated Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any shareholder of Genesis such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of applicable Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Exchange Agent, AerCap or the Amalgamated Company, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Genesis Common Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. The parties agree to cooperate with each other for purposes of determining whether any Taxes are required to be withheld with respect to the Amalgamation.

2.3 Genesis Equity Awards.

(a) Genesis Stock Options. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without any action on the part of any holder of any outstanding option to purchase Genesis Common Shares under any Genesis Share Plan, whether vested or unvested, exercisable or unexercisable (each, a “Genesis Share Option”), each Genesis Share Option that is outstanding

and unexercised immediately prior thereto shall cease to represent a right to acquire Genesis Common Shares and shall be converted into an option (a “New Option”) to purchase, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the terms of the Genesis Share Plan under which the Genesis Share Option was granted and the applicable award agreement related thereto (taking into account any accelerated vesting thereunder), such number of AerCap Common Shares and at an exercise price per share determined as follows:

(1) Number of Shares. The number of AerCap Common Shares subject to a New Option shall be equal to the product of (A) the number of Genesis Common Shares subject to such Genesis Share Option immediately prior to the Effective Time and (B) the Exchange Ratio; and

(2) Exercise Price. The exercise price per AerCap Common Share purchasable upon exercise of a New Option shall be equal to (A) the per share exercise price of the Genesis Share Option divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio.

The foregoing adjustments shall (i) in the case of any Genesis Share Option that is intended to be an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code, be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code and (ii) in the case of any Genesis Share Option that is not intended to be an “incentive stock option,” be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

(b) Genesis Restricted Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without any action on the part of any holder of any Genesis Restricted Share, each Genesis Restricted Share that is outstanding immediately prior thereto shall, after giving effect to Section 2.1(a), retain the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the terms of the Genesis Share Plan under which the Genesis Restricted Share was granted and the applicable award agreement related thereto (taking into account any lapse of restrictions thereunder).

(c) Corporate Actions. Prior to the Effective Time, Genesis, or its board of directors or an appropriate committee thereof, shall take all action necessary and within its right and authority to give effect to the provisions of Section 2.3(a) and Section 2.3(b), including (i) adopting all necessary board or committee resolutions to effectuate the appropriate provisions of the Genesis Share Plan, effective as of the Effective Time, and (ii) approving amended award agreements with respect to the New Options consistent with the provisions of Section 2.3(a), in a form reasonably requested by AerCap and approved by Genesis, effective as of the Effective Time.

(d) Registration. If registration of, or notice with respect to, any interests in the Genesis Share Plans or any other Genesis Benefit Plan or the AerCap Common Shares issuable thereunder is required under the Securities Act or The Act on Financial Supervision (Wet op het financieel toezicht (Wft)), respectively, AerCap shall as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time and in any event within five (5) business days thereafter (i) file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate forms) with respect to such interests of AerCap Common Shares, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement (and maintain the

current status of the prospectus or the prospectuses contained therein) for so long as the relevant Genesis Share Plans or other Genesis Benefit Plans, as applicable, remain in effect and such registration of interests therein or the AerCap Common Shares issuable thereunder continues to be required and (ii) provide the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets with the requisite notice.

(e) Notice to Equity Award Holders. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, AerCap shall deliver to the holders of Genesis Share Options and Genesis Restricted Shares appropriate notices stating that the Genesis Share Options and Genesis Restricted Shares and related agreements have been assumed by AerCap and shall continue in effect on the same terms and conditions (subject to the adjustments required by this Section 2.3).

6.4 No Change in Recommendation.

(a) The board of directors of Genesis shall not withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify (including by amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus), in any manner adverse to AerCap, the Genesis Recommendation, or publicly propose to, or publicly announce that its board of directors has resolved to, take any such action (any of the foregoing with respect to the Genesis Recommendation, whether in accordance with this Section 6.4 or Section 6.5, a “Change in Genesis Recommendation”).

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to obtaining the Required Genesis Vote, the board of directors of Genesis may withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify the Genesis Recommendation (or publicly announce that its board of directors has resolved to take any such action), other than in connection with an Acquisition Proposal (for the avoidance of doubt, the conditions under which Genesis may make a Change in Genesis Recommendation as a result of an Acquisition Proposal are as set forth in Section 6.5), if the board of directors of Genesis, after consultation with its outside counsel, concludes in good faith that such action is reasonably likely to be required in order for the board of directors to comply with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided that, no Change in Genesis Recommendation may be made under this Section 6.4 unless Genesis (i) has not breached in any material respect its obligations under this Section 6.4, and (ii) has provided a written notice to AerCap advising AerCap of its intention to make a Change in Genesis Recommendation under

this Section 6.4 and AerCap does not, within three (3) business days following its receipt of such notice, agree to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement which obviate the need for the Change in Genesis Recommendation, as determined in good faith by the board of directors of Genesis after consultation with its outside legal counsel (provided that, during such three (3) business day period, Genesis shall, and shall cause its outside legal counsel and its financial advisors to, negotiate in good faith with AerCap (to the extent AerCap desires to negotiate) with respect to any proposed adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing or the proviso to Section 6.5(a), but subject to the respective parties’ rights to terminate this Agreement pursuant to ARTICLE VIII, nothing contained in this Section 6.4(b) or in Section 6.5 shall be deemed to, or shall, relieve Genesis of its obligations to call, give notice of, convene and hold the Genesis Shareholders Meeting under Section 6.1; provided, however, that if the board of directors of Genesis shall have effected a Change in Genesis Recommendation pursuant to this Section 6.4, then the Genesis board of directors may hold the Genesis Shareholders Meeting without making any recommendation, in which event the Genesis board of directors shall communicate the basis for its lack of a recommendation to the Genesis shareholders in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent it determines, after consultation with its legal counsel, that such action is compelled by applicable Law.

6.5 Acquisition Proposals.

(a) Neither Genesis nor any of its subsidiaries shall, and Genesis shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its and its subsidiaries’ Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, prior to the termination of this Agreement:

(i) initiate, solicit, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by providing non-public information) any effort or attempt to make or implement any proposal or offer with respect to, or a transaction to effect, an amalgamation, merger, reorganization, share exchange, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving it or any of its subsidiaries which account for 20% or more of the assets or revenues of it and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or any purchase or sale of 20% or more of the consolidated assets (including, without limitation, stock of its subsidiaries) of it and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or any purchase or sale of, or tender or exchange offer for, its voting securities that, if consummated, would result in any person (or the shareholders of such person) beneficially owning securities representing 20% or more of its total voting power (or of the surviving entity in such transaction) (any such proposal, offer or transaction (other than a proposal or offer made by AerCap) being hereinafter referred to as an “Acquisition Proposal”);

(ii) have, participate or otherwise engage in any discussions or negotiations with or provide any confidential information or data to any person relating to an Acquisition Proposal;

(iii) approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal or submit to the vote of its shareholders any Acquisition Proposal; or

(iv) approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, or execute or enter into, any letter of intent, agreement in principle, merger agreement, amalgamation agreement, asset purchase or share exchange agreement, option agreement or other similar agreement related to any Acquisition Proposal;

provided that Genesis may, and Genesis may cause its Representatives to, if the board of directors of Genesis, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, concludes in good faith that such action is reasonably likely to be required in order for the directors to comply with their fiduciary duties under applicable Law, but subject to Genesis, its subsidiaries and their Representatives complying with Section 6.5(c), participate or otherwise engage in discussions or negotiations with or furnish confidential information or data to any person who has made an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.5 in any material respect and which the board of directors of Genesis concludes would be reasonably likely to constitute or lead to a Superior Proposal; provided, further, that (A) prior to participating or otherwise engaging in any such discussions or negotiations or furnishing such confidential information or data, Genesis shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement with such person on terms not less restrictive in the aggregate to such person than the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement are to AerCap and its Representatives and (B) all such information or data has previously been provided or made available to AerCap or its Representatives or is provided or made available to AerCap or its Representatives prior to or substantially concurrent with the time it is provided to such person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.5(a) shall prohibit Genesis from contacting and engaging in discussions with any person who has made an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal solely for the purpose of clarifying the terms of such Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Subject to Section 6.5(d), Genesis (i) shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives to, cease immediately and terminate any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any third parties conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, and (ii) shall not, and shall not permit any of its subsidiaries to, release any third party from, or waive any provisions of, any confidentiality or standstill agreement to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party, except to the extent that the board of directors of Genesis, after consultation with its outside counsel, concludes in good faith that such action is reasonably likely to be required in order for the board of directors to comply with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law in connection with any Acquisition Proposal. Genesis shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly inform its and its subsidiaries’ respective Representatives of the obligations undertaken in this Section 6.5.

(c) Genesis shall promptly (and in any event within the later of (1) forty-eight (48) hours or (2) the end of the second business day following such event) notify AerCap of any (i) Acquisition Proposal received by it, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives, (ii) request for information that would reasonably be expected to be related to an Acquisition Proposal received by it, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives, and (iii) request for discussions or negotiations that would reasonably be expected to be related to an Acquisition Proposal received by it, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives, indicating, in connection with any such notice, the identity of the person making such Acquisition Proposal or request and the material terms and conditions thereof (including a copy thereof if in writing and any related available documentation and

correspondence). Genesis shall (A) inform the person making such Acquisition Proposal, request for information or request for discussions or negotiations of its obligations under this Agreement and (B) keep AerCap reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis of the terms of any such Acquisition Proposal or request for information or request for discussions or negotiations (including whether such Acquisition Proposal or request for information or request for discussions or negotiations is withdrawn and any material change to the terms thereof). Nothing contained in this paragraph (c) is intended to limit any other provision of this Section 6.5.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, at any time prior to obtaining the Required Genesis Vote (after the expiration of the Notice Period), the board of directors of Genesis concludes that an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.5 in any material respect would be reasonably likely to constitute a Superior Proposal (after giving effect to all the adjustments to this Agreement which may be offered by AerCap prior to or during the Notice Period), the board of directors of Genesis may make a Change in Genesis Recommendation pursuant to this Section 6.5; provided that, the board of directors of Genesis may not make a Change in Genesis Recommendation pursuant to this Section 6.5 unless (i) Genesis has provided a written notice to AerCap (a “Notice of Superior Proposal”) advising AerCap that it has received an Acquisition Proposal that would be reasonably likely to constitute a Superior Proposal and specifying the identity of the person making such Acquisition Proposal and the material terms thereof (including a copy thereof and any related available documentation and correspondence), and (ii) AerCap does not, within three (3) business days following its receipt of the Notice of Superior Proposal (the “Notice Period”), make an offer that, as determined in good faith by the board of directors of Genesis after consultation with Genesis’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, results in the applicable Acquisition Proposal no longer being a Superior Proposal (provided that, during the Notice Period, Genesis shall, and shall cause its outside legal counsel and its financial advisors to, negotiate in good faith with AerCap (to the extent AerCap desires to negotiate) with respect to such proposal). The parties understand and agree that, to comply with this Section 6.5(d), any revisions to the terms of such Superior Proposal which, individually or in the aggregate, would be material when considering such Superior Proposal in its totality, shall require Genesis to deliver to AerCap a new Notice of Superior Proposal and the commencement of a new Notice Period.

(e) Nothing contained in this Section 6.5 shall prohibit Genesis from (i) complying with Rule 14d-9 or 14e-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act to the extent applicable with regard to an Acquisition Proposal (provided that, in the case of an Acquisition Proposal made by way of a tender offer or exchange offer, any failure by Genesis or its board of directors to recommend that the shareholders of Genesis reject such offer within the time period specified in Rule 14e-2(a) shall be deemed to be a Change in Genesis Recommendation), or making any legally required disclosure to its shareholders with regard to an Acquisition Proposal (provided that, any disclosure (other than a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) made pursuant to Rule 14d-9 or 14e-2(a) shall be deemed to be a Change in Genesis Recommendation unless the board of directors of Genesis expressly reaffirms its recommendation to its shareholders in favor of approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby) or (ii) informing any person of the existence of the provisions contained in this Section 6.5.

(f) “Superior Proposal” means a bona fide unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal from any person (other than AerCap or its subsidiaries) that did not result from a material breach by Genesis of this Section 6.5, which the board of directors of Genesis concludes in good faith, after consultation with Genesis’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, taking into account the legal, financial, regulatory, timing, the person making the Acquisition Proposal and other aspects of the Acquisition Proposal (including any break-up fees, expense reimbursement provisions and conditions to consummation) (i) is in the best interests of Genesis and its shareholders taken as a whole, (ii) is more favorable to Genesis and its shareholders taken as a whole than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (after giving effect to all adjustments to this Agreement which may be offered by AerCap under Section 6.5(d) in response to such Acquisition Proposal) and (iii) is fully financed or reasonably capable of being fully financed and reasonably likely to receive all required approvals of Governmental Entities and otherwise reasonably capable of being completed within six (6) months following the Genesis board’s determination that such Acquisition Proposal is a “Superior Proposal”; provided that, for purposes of this definition of “Superior Proposal,” the term “Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 6.5(a)(i), except that the reference to “20% or more of the assets or revenues” shall be deemed to be a reference to “50% or more of the assets or revenues”, the reference to “20% or more of its voting power” shall be deemed to be a reference to “50% or more of its total voting power” and the reference to “20% or more of the consolidated assets” shall be deemed to be a reference to “all or substantially all of the consolidated assets.”

6.6 Fees and Expenses. Whether or not the Amalgamation is consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such expense, except as otherwise provided herein, and except that (i) expenses incurred in connection with filing, printing and mailing the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and the Form F-4, all filing and other fees paid to the SEC in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and all filing fees associated with the Requisite Regulatory Approvalswhich in each case shall be shared equally by Genesis and AerCap, and (ii) fees and expenses (other than any fees and expenses of Genesis’s legal counsel) associated with obtaining the Agreement Waivers and the Service Provider Agreements shall be borne by AerCap.

6.7 Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, the Amalgamated Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law (and, in the case of the former officers and directors, to the extent permitted by the bye-laws of Genesis or any of its respective subsidiaries prior to the Closing), indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and provide advancement of expenses to, each person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director or officer of Genesis or any of its respective subsidiaries (the “Indemnified Parties”) against all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities or judgments or amounts that are paid in settlement of or in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation based in whole or in part on or arising in whole or in part out of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of Genesis or any of its respective subsidiaries, and pertaining to any matter existing or occurring, or any acts or omissions occurring, at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after, the

Effective Time (including matters, acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby) to the same extent such persons are indemnified or have the right to advancement of expenses as of the date of this Agreement by Genesis or any of its respective subsidiaries pursuant to the relevant entity’s memorandum of association, bye-laws and indemnification agreements and resolutions, if any, in existence on the date hereof. In the event that the Amalgamated Company fails to perform its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.7(a) for any reason, AerCap will perform and fulfill such obligations without any requirement that an Indemnified Party pursue any available remedies against the Amalgamated Company or any other party.

(b) Genesis shall purchase as of the Effective Time, and AerCap, for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, shall maintain, a tail policy to the existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by Genesis with respect to claims arising from facts or events which occurred at or before the Effective Time, and which tail policy shall contain substantially the same coverage and amounts as, and contain terms and conditions no less advantageous than the coverage provided by the existing policy of Genesis as of the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall Genesis be permitted to expend for the entire tail policy in excess of 250% of the annual premium currently provided by Genesis for its existing policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance; and provided, further, that if the premium of such insurance coverage exceeds such amount, Genesis shall be permitted to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not to exceed such amount. At the request of Genesis, AerCap shall cooperate with Genesis to obtain such a tail policy effective as of the Effective Time.

(c) In the event that AerCap or the Amalgamated Company or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates or amalgamates with or merges into any other person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or amalgamation or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person (including by dissolution), then, and in each such case, AerCap shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of AerCap or the Amalgamated Company assume and honor the obligations set forth in this Section 6.7.

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.7: (i) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each director of Genesis as of the date of this Agreement and each other Indemnified Party, his or her heirs and legal representatives and (ii) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have by contract or otherwise. Following the Effective Time, the obligations of AerCap and the Amalgamated Company under this Section 6.7 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Party to whom this Section 6.7 applies without the consent of each such affected Indemnified Party.

6.8 Public Announcements. The press release to be issued after the execution of this Agreement by all parties regarding the Amalgamation shall be a joint press release, and thereafter each of AerCap and Genesis shall, except as may be required by applicable Law or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with or rules of the NYSE, as applicable, or by request of any Governmental Entity, consult with the other party before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions

contemplated hereby; provided, however, that this consultation obligation shall not apply to any press release or other public statement relating to any actual or contemplated litigation between the parties to this Agreement.

6.9 Additional Agreements. In case any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Amalgamated Company with full title to all properties, assets, rights, approvals, permits, authorizations, immunities and franchises of Genesis and its subsidiaries, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause their respective officers and directors to take all such necessary action.

6.10 Shareholder Litigation. Genesis shall give AerCap the reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of any shareholder litigation against Genesis or its directors or officers relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

6.11 Employee Matters.

(a) Both Genesis and AerCap acknowledge and agree that the Transfer Regulations apply to this Agreement and that under the Transfer Regulations:

(i) the rights and obligations arising from contracts of employment between Genesis and the Employees (except those relating to old-age, invalidity and survivors’ benefits referred to in Regulation 4(3) of the Transfer Regulations) will have effect after the Effective Time as if originally made between AerCap or the Amalgamated Company and each such Employee; and

(ii) Genesis and AerCap each severally has an obligation to inform and/or consult with its employee representatives, or employees as the case may be, about the transactions contemplated hereby. Such consultation will include consultation concerning the Employees’ rights to old-age, invalidity and survivors’ benefits following the Effective Time.

(b) Both Genesis and AerCap agree to comply with their respective obligations under the Transfer Regulations and provide reasonable information and assistance to the other party to allow that party to so comply, including details of the relevant Employee’s or other person’s rights and obligations which transfer to AerCap.

(c) As soon as practicable after the date hereof but, in any event, prior to the Closing Date, Genesis shall offer to enter into severance arrangements with the employees identified in the schedule delivered on September 16, 2009 (which such schedule shall include all employees of Genesis and its subsidiaries as of September 16, 2009) by Genesis’s Chief Executive Officer to AerCap’s Chief Executive Officer entitled “Final Section 6.11(c) Schedule” providing for the termination of such employees’ employment with Genesis as of the Effective Time or at such earlier date as otherwise determined by Galveston in consideration of the receipt of a severance payment and benefits in accordance with such schedule (subject to any adjustment under Section 6.11(d)), each such payment being conditional on the relevant employee signing (x) an appropriate form of severance agreement on terms and in a form reasonably acceptable to AerCap (it being understood that each such agreement shall include a waiver of any applicable restrictions on the employment of such employee) and (y) an acknowledgement that each

employee has exercised his or her right to refuse to transfer to AerCap or the Amalgamated Company under the Transfer Regulations. For the avoidance of doubt, any employee of Genesis who chooses not to accept voluntary severance in accordance with this Section 6.11(c) will be entitled to transfer to AerCap or the Amalgamated Company in accordance with Section 6.11(a).

(d) The parties acknowledge that the severance amounts specified in the list referred to in Section 6.11(c) are calculated assuming the Effective Time will be December 31, 2009. The parties agree that, should the Effective Time take place on a date other than December 31, 2009, the maximum amounts shall be adjusted as provided in the schedule referred to in Section 6.11(c) to reflect the actual period before the Effective Time (such adjustments to include any adjustments necessary to each employee’s length of service with Genesis).

6.12 Listing and Delisting; Reservation for Issuance. AerCap shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all the following shares to be approved for listing and quotation on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance, no later than the Closing Date: (i) all AerCap Common Shares to be issued in the Amalgamation to Genesis shareholders and (ii) all AerCap Common Shares to be reserved for issuance upon exercise or vesting of the Genesis Share Options (collectively, the “Listed AerCap Common Shares”). AerCap shall take all action necessary to reserve for issuance, prior to the Closing Date, any Listed AerCap Common Shares that, by their terms and in accordance with this Agreement, will not be issued until after the Effective Time. AerCap shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Genesis Common Shares and ADSs to no longer be listed or quoted on the NYSE and to be deregistered under the Exchange Act as soon as practicable following the Effective Time.

6.13 Tax Matters.

(a) AerCap shall cause (i) Amalgamation Sub to file with the United States Internal Revenue Service a properly completed Form 8832 and related documents, so as to elect to be treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal tax purposes effective at least one day prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) the Amalgamated Company to file, after the Closing Date, with the United States Internal Revenue Service a properly completed Form 8832 and related documents, so as to cause it to be treated for U.S. federal tax purposes as a disregarded entity effective as of the Closing Date.

(b) The parties intend that the Amalgamation will qualify for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1) of the Code and to obtain the opinion described in Section 7.2(d). Prior to the Effective Time, each of AerCap, Amalgamation Sub and Genesis and each of their respective affiliates shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Amalgamation to so qualify and to obtain such opinion, and unless otherwise required by applicable Law or by any other provision of this Agreement, shall not take any actions, or cause any actions to be taken, which would reasonably be expected to cause the Amalgamation to fail so to qualify or the opinion to fail to be delivered.

(c) AerCap and Genesis shall each execute and deliver to Weil, Gotshal & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, counsel to Genesis, certificates substantially in the forms attached hereto as Exhibits B and C at such time or times as reasonably requested by Weil, Gotshal & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP

in connection with any opinions required by the SEC or the delivery of the opinion referred to in Section 7.2(d), as the case may be. Prior to the Effective Time, neither AerCap nor Genesis shall take any action which would cause to be untrue any of the representations in such certificates.

6.14 AerCap Board of Directors.

(a) AerCap shall propose and recommend for election to the board of directors of AerCap for at least the four (4) year term referred to in, and subject to all the terms of, Article 15.3 of AerCap’s articles of association (statuten), at an extraordinary general meeting of AerCap’s shareholders to be duly called and held within sixty (60) days following the Effective Time (the “First EGM”), three (3) nominees proposed by Genesis (in addition to any other nominees proposed by the board of directors of AerCap or any AerCap shareholder) at least five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date, which nominees (such nominees, or any replacement nominees selected in accordance with this Section 6.14 from time to time, the “Genesis Nominees”) shall be (i) members of the board of directors of Genesis as of such date and (ii) subject to the consent of AerCap (not to be unreasonably withheld).

(b) If any Genesis Nominee shall not be elected to the board of directors of AerCap at the First EGM, the Genesis Nominees shall designate a replacement for such person or persons (which may include re-nomination of a Genesis Nominee who was previously proposed), subject to the consent of AerCap (not to be unreasonably withheld), and AerCap shall propose and recommend for election to the board of directors of AerCap such replacement Genesis Nominee or Nominees (x) in the event that the First EGM takes place before the publication of notice of the annual general meeting of AerCap’s shareholders to be held in 2010 (the “2010 AGM”), at the 2010 AGM, or (y) in the event that the First EGM takes place after the publication of notice of the 2010 AGM, at an extraordinary general meeting of AerCap’s shareholders to be duly called and held within ninety (90) days following the First EGM (the “Second EGM”; and the term “Applicable Meeting” means the First EGM, the Second EGM or the 2010 AGM, as applicable).

(c) If it shall be determined prior to the Closing Date that a Genesis Nominee shall be unable to serve as a director at the time of the First EGM or fails to obtain the consent of AerCap, Genesis shall designate another Genesis Nominee, which Genesis Nominee shall be (i) a member of the board of directors of Genesis as of such date and (ii) subject to the consent of AerCap (not to be unreasonably withheld), to serve in such individual’s place.

(d) If it shall be determined following the Closing Date, but prior to the time of the Applicable Meeting, that a Genesis Nominee shall be unable to serve as a director at the time of the Applicable Meeting or fails to obtain the consent of AerCap, the remaining Genesis Nominees shall designate a replacement for such person, subject to the consent of AerCap (not to be unreasonably withheld).

(e) In any instance where AerCap is required to provide its consent under this Section 6.14, AerCap may withhold such consent if (among other reasons) any proposed Genesis Nominee would reasonably be expected not to satisfy any standard (other than independence) contained in any corporate governance rule adopted by the board of directors of AerCap, AerCap’s articles of association (statuten) or applicable Netherlands Law. For the avoidance of

doubt, if as a result of the election of any Genesis Nominee, AerCap would have a larger number of executive directors or non-independent directors than prescribed under the Netherlands corporate governance code, AerCap shall make the appropriate disclosure as allowed under such corporate governance code in its annual report.

(f) From and after the Effective Time and until (x) the date that three (3) Genesis Nominees are elected to the board of directors of AerCap or (y) in the event that three (3) Genesis Nominees are not elected to the board of directors of AerCap at or prior to the 2010 AGM or the Second EGM, as applicable, the date of such Applicable Meeting, each Genesis Nominee who has not been elected to the AerCap board of directors shall have the right to (i) attend any meeting of the AerCap board of directors held following the Effective Time, strictly as an observer without any voting rights and (ii) receive any materials delivered to the board of directors of AerCap in connection therewith; provided that the aggregate of the number of Genesis Nominees with the rights described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 6.14(f) and the number of Genesis Nominees who are directors of AerCap shall not exceed three (3) at any one time.

6.15 Deposit Agreement. Genesis shall take any and all action reasonably requested by AerCap with respect to the Depositary and the Deposit Agreement that AerCap deems necessary or advisable in order to facilitate the exchange of ADSs for AerCap Common Shares in connection with the Amalgamation, including amending or terminating the Deposit Agreement, appointing a successor Depositary and/or removing the Depositary.

6.16 Financing Facilities. Effective from and after the Effective Time, the Amalgamated Company shall expressly assume Genesis’s obligations under the DVB/KFW/HSH Facility.

6.17 Monthly Reports. Each of AerCap and Genesis shall deliver to the other party promptly after the end of each calendar month ending after the date of this Agreement, (i) true and complete copies of any monthly consolidated management accounts as may be prepared or received relating to the business or operations of AerCap and Genesis, respectively, and (ii) a report setting forth in reasonable detail, as of such month end, an update of the information required to be disclosed, with respect to Genesis, in Section 4.11(g) of the Genesis Disclosure Letter and with respect to AerCap, in Section 3.10(g) of the AerCap Disclosure Letter.

(c) by either Genesis or AerCap, upon written notice to the other party, if the Amalgamation shall not have been consummated on or before the later of (i) March 17, 2010; (ii) if, on the date set forth in clause (i), the condition set forth in Section 7.1(c) is the only condition remaining to be satisfied on such date (other than those conditions that are only capable of being satisfied on the Closing), ninety (90) days following such date; and (iii) if on the date provided for in clause (ii), the Indian Regulation is in effect and requires by its terms the receipt of the Indian Approval prior to consummation of the Amalgamation, and receipt of the Indian Approval is the only condition remaining to be satisfied on such date (other than those conditions that are only capable of being satisfied on the Closing), the last day of the applicable waiting or similar period prescribed under the Indian Regulation as determined in good faith by AerCap and Genesis after consultation with their respective outside legal counsel (the “Outside Date”); provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(c) shall not be available to any party whose failure to comply in any material respect with any provision of this Agreement has been the direct cause of, or resulted directly in, the failure of the Effective Time to occur on or before the Outside Date;

For purposes of this Agreement, “willful and material breach” shall mean a material breach that is a consequence of

an act undertaken by the breaching party with the knowledge (actual or constructive) that the taking of such act would, or would be reasonably expected to, cause a breach of this Agreement.

References to “affiliate” in this Agreement means, as to any person, any other person which, directly or indirectly, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such person. As used in this Agreement, “control” (including, with its correlative meanings, “controlled by” and “under common control with”) means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of management or policies of a person, whether through the ownership of securities or partnership or other ownership interests, by contract or otherwise. As used in this Agreement, “knowledge” means the actual knowledge, following due inquiry, of any of the officers of AerCap or the officers of Genesis, as the case may be; provided that, with respect to paragraphs (c)-(g) of Section 4.11 and Section 4.12, “due inquiry” by Genesis shall also include active inquiry of the Servicer.

9.4 Counterparts.

Such counterpart executions may be transmitted to the parties by facsimile or electronic transmission, which shall have the full force and effect of an original signature.

9.5 Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the Amalgamation Agreement, the AerCap Disclosure Letter and the Genesis Disclosure Letter) (a) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, other than the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall terminate in accordance with its terms, and (b) is not intended to confer upon any person other than the parties any rights or remedies hereunder, except (i) for the rights of the holders of Genesis Common Shares to receive the Amalgamation Consideration pursuant to and subject to this Agreement if the Effective Time occurs, and (ii) as provided in Section 6.7(c).

9.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects, including as to validity, interpretation and effect, by the Laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to its principles or rules of conflict of laws; provided, however, that the Amalgamation shall also be governed by the applicable provisions of the Companies Act to the extent required thereby.

9.7 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability and, unless the effect of such invalidity or unenforceability would prevent the parties from realizing the major portion of the economic benefits of the Amalgamation that they currently anticipate obtaining therefrom, shall not render invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affect the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

9.8 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations of the parties hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties, which may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of the other parties. Any attempt to make any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding two (2) sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

9.9 Enforcement. The parties agree that money damages would be both incalculable and an insufficient remedy and that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms on a timely basis or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that, subject to the discretion of the Chosen Court, the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this

Agreement in any Chosen Court, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity (including under Section 8.2).

9.10 Submission to Jurisdiction. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally consents, agrees and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York (collectively, the “Chosen Courts”), for the purposes of any litigation, action, suit or other proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. Each party agrees to commence any litigation, action, suit or proceeding relating hereto only in the Chosen Courts. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any litigation, action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in the Chosen Courts, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each party further irrevocably consents to and grants any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent legally effective, over the subject matter of any such dispute and agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 9.2 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law, shall be valid and sufficient service thereof. The parties agree that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

9.11 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties, by action taken or authorized by their respective boards of directors, at any time before or after approval of the matters presented in connection with the Amalgamation by the shareholders of Genesis, but, after any such approval, no amendment shall be made which by Law requires further approval by such shareholders without such further approval. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties by their duly authorized representatives.

9.12 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties may, to the extent legally allowed, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other party, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (iii) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party. The failure of a party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights. No single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. Any waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given and shall not constitute a waiver to any subsequent or other exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder.
